1
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: Could the robots soon replace humans as NFL officials? Not

2
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: really yet, but the men and stripes could be gaining

3
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: some artificial intelligence soon. Hear what Roger Goodell had to

4
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,120
Speaker 1: say today at the NFL's full meeting about the potential

5
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: arrival of Chat NFL. The upstart Panthers are in the

6
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: playoff mix heading into Sunday's showdown with the Bills and

7
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: promow cornerback j C. Horn is a big reason why

8
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: JAYC will join us tonight with both hands to talk

9
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: about that ridiculous interception and a whole lot more. Don't

10
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,599
Speaker 1: sleep on our fantasy expert Marcus Grant or any of

11
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: his fantasy sleepers. The man with some of the best

12
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: calls this season is back tonight with a couple of

13
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: names you will not believe, but you should probably pick

14
00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: them up that anyway. Welcome inside with the Inside presented

15
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: by Progressive Insurance alongside Judy Batista and Mike Gara Folo,

16
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: I am Tom Tellisero.

17
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 2: Eve of week eight in the NFL.

18
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: We will talk vikings in charges with our Steve Weitz,

19
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 1: who joins us surely.

20
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 2: But first we've got some injury news.

21
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: And once again it is not good news for the

22
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: Washington Commanders. Their quarterback Jaden Daniels was out for Monday

23
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: night's game at Kansas City because of the hamstring injury

24
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: that he suffered last week. This according to our ian Rappaport,

25
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: it's a low grade hamstring injury, nothing long term for Daniels,

26
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: but he is going to miss at least one game.

27
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: Marcus Marioto, was one to one filling in for Daniels

28
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: earlier this season, will get the start in Kansas City.

29
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, meanwhile, is on track to return for the

30
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: Ravens on Sunday against Chicago. Was back on the practice

31
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: field today, officially listed as limited.

32
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: Barn a stepback.

33
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: Odds certainly seemed to be improving greatly that Lamar will

34
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: be in the lineup, though John harbadn't want to put

35
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: odds on it just yet.

36
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 3: It's hard to put a number on. I think it's

37
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 3: just part of the process right now. I really don't

38
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 3: have any shareable injury intelligence for you guys at this point.

39
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: What do you think of that?

40
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 4: I would say that even Mike Tommin, who gives verbose

41
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 4: answers with superfluous phrases, probably impressed by that.

42
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 2: Phrasing right there.

43
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 4: Meanwhile, down in Tampa, Bucky.

44
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 2: Irving is still not practicing.

45
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 4: He hasn't played in the month of October, and after

46
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 4: he got hurt, Todd Bowles was indicating we'll see by

47
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 4: the end of the week, in week five if he

48
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 4: can go. We're in week eight now, Bucky Irving is

49
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,239
Speaker 4: still not there. Chris Godwin as well. When you see

50
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 4: fibula listed on the injury report, there's only one thing

51
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 4: you can do to a fibula, only one thing you

52
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 4: can do to a bone, and that's breaking. So something's

53
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,679
Speaker 4: going on there with Chris Godwin that has him out

54
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 4: of action. Todd Bowles saying, we're up against the buy

55
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 4: and we've got so many injuries, Mike Evans being one

56
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 4: of them. Placed an injury reserve, by the way, getting

57
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 4: surgery on that collarbone. That will probably err on the

58
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 4: side of caution if a guy's not ready to go.

59
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 4: So perhaps these two will be out there on Sunday

60
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 4: against the Saints.

61
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 5: Judy Jets owner Wuddy Johnson was very clear yesterday he

62
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 5: lays the blame for the Jets O and seven start

63
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 5: mostly at the feet of quarterback Justin Fields said, if

64
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 5: we could just complete it pass it would look good.

65
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 5: Fields was asked today about Woody's comments. He certainly took

66
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 5: the high road. Here is what he had to say.

67
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 6: It doesn't bother me, It doesn't. You know, of course

68
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 6: everybody knows. You know, I need to I need to

69
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 6: play better. We need to play better as a team.

70
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 6: And of course, you know, no matter how you know

71
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 6: the offense does as a unit, you know, I'm going

72
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 6: to get the blame. And I understand that that's just

73
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 6: what comes with the job. But honestly, it's what comes

74
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 6: with it. So you can't let anything kind of affect

75
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 6: your mind, my mind, and that's that's what it is.

76
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 6: No matter if it's you know him, no matter if

77
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 6: it's you know, family members, even teammates. Sometimes you're gonna

78
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 6: be there's gonna be times where you have to be

79
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 6: the only one who believes in yourself.

80
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 7: So you know, like I said, that's his opinion.

81
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 6: And like I told you guys after the game on

82
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 6: on Sunday, I'm at peace and on focus is right

83
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 6: now is working each and every day and getting better.

84
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: So whati Johnson also repeatedly said I have faith in Aaron.

85
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: He meant Glenn not Rogers, who is acutely aware that

86
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: he is no longer a jet. He faces one of

87
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: his other former teams, the Green Bay Packers, for the

88
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: first time Sunday Night. Your thoughts, Aaron, I can go

89
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: for you just as a quote, revenge opportunity or whatever

90
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 1: near to we want to turn through out there.

91
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 2: I do.

92
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 8: Why not, Well, Brett got traded and then he went

93
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 8: to one of the hated rivals. You know, I was

94
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 8: in New Jersey for a couple of years. I don't

95
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 8: have any animosity toward the organization. Obviously, I wish that,

96
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 8: you know, things have been better in our last year there,

97
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 8: but you know, I have a great relationship with a

98
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 8: lot of people still in that organization, and you know,

99
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 8: this is not a revenge game for me. I'm just

100
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 8: excited to see some of those guys and be on

101
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 8: Sunday Night Football.

102
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers has made some Pro Bowls over his career.

103
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 4: Maybe he'll make this year if he does. Roger Goodell

104
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 4: announcing today at the NFL League meeting in New York

105
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 4: at the Pro Bowl Games moving to the site of

106
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. That's the Bay Area, and we'll be

107
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 4: on Tuesday, which used to be Media Day Now that's

108
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 4: Monday night. Dell's presser used to be on Friday. Now

109
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 4: that's Wednesday. NFL Honors used to be on Saturday. That's Thursday.

110
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 4: We are figuring out the perfect Super Bowl week and

111
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 4: now the Pro Bowl games are going to be part

112
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 4: of that, and.

113
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: You'll be able to see the games.

114
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 4: You'll be able to see the flag football game, You'll

115
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 4: be able to see all that action from all of

116
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 4: the Pro bowlers. Meanwhile, Goodell addressed some other issues during

117
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 4: his meeting with the media. Was asked about artificial intelligence

118
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 4: when it comes to officiating. Here's what the Commissioner had

119
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 4: to say.

120
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 9: We've added replay assist as you know, and use some

121
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 9: technology which I think is really a valuable thing, and

122
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:58,799
Speaker 9: I think that will continue to evolve, and we're looking

123
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 9: at how i AI be a factor in that, how

124
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 9: can we use AI to maybe help in officiating as

125
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 9: well as many other areas of the operational league. So

126
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 9: I'm quite optimist optimistic that we're going to continue to

127
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 9: have more technology and that will involve more communication either

128
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 9: between the crews or between our office or the replay visual.

129
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 4: All right, Julia, it was one of the topics that

130
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 4: came up at the fall meeting in Manhattan where we

131
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 4: were we are now in the comforts of home.

132
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 2: What did we take away from this meeting this year.

133
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 5: Well, officiating, as it often is, was a through line

134
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 5: of the meeting. Roger Goodell gets us at every one

135
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 5: of these meetings for as long as I can remember

136
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 5: about officiating, always that there's controversy about officiating during the season,

137
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 5: and he always says the same thing, there's always controversy

138
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 5: about officiating during the season. Having said that, our meetings

139
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 5: started with a tour of the officiating headquarters at Park Avenue,

140
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 5: where they emphasized how they are trying to support the

141
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 5: on field officials with replay assist how they're trying to

142
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 5: be more accurate and faster with officiating, all of those things.

143
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 5: And then of course it ended with Roger Goodell saying

144
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 5: he could envision artificial intelligence assisting officiating too, So that

145
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 5: was certainly a through line how they are supporting the

146
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 5: on field officials. They have always been cognizant that the

147
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 5: on field officials are at a disadvantage seeing things compared

148
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 5: to what we can see on a television set, compared

149
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 5: to what fans can see at home when they have

150
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 5: a million television angles to look at, they know they.

151
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 2: Need to support the officials.

152
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 5: The other thing I took away was the eighteen game schedule,

153
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 5: which seemed to be on a fast track only about

154
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 5: a year ago, has definitely slowed down momentum towards that,

155
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 5: largely because of the upheaval in leadership at the Players Association.

156
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 5: That has to be negotiated with the players Union. It

157
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 5: has to be part of a CBA, and with no

158
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 5: head of the Players Union in place right now and

159
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 5: not going to happen until next offseason, those negotiations can

160
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 5: start for a long time, possibly passed next year twenty

161
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 5: twenty six, which means you are looking well down the

162
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 5: road until we get.

163
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: To an eighteen game season.

164
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 5: So that has certainly slowed down from where we were

165
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 5: even a year ago.

166
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, the fall meeting is not where you see a

167
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 4: lot of the things that we get excited about for meetings,

168
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: which is rule changes, those kinds of things. Those tend

169
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 4: to happen in March or May during those meetings in

170
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 4: the offseason. But this is the point of the season

171
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 4: where they go, Okay, where are we, how's everything going? Kickoff,

172
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 4: kick returns with certainly a big point of discussion. As

173
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 4: Troy Vincent likes to say, and likes to say over

174
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 4: and over again because he likes his line that he

175
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 4: came up with. They put the foot back in football.

176
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 4: The footback in the game is the way that Troy

177
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 4: phrases it with the kick return. So they're happy so

178
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 4: far with the returns upon unintended returns of the kick

179
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 4: return so far this year. Officiating certainly a big part

180
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 4: of it, Judy. They are not blind to the fact

181
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 4: that a lot of folks think that officiating could be

182
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,599
Speaker 4: better For those of us who have been on a

183
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 4: sideline during an.

184
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: NFL game and see how quickly it happens.

185
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 4: It's a lot faster than those slow motion replays that

186
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 4: you were talking about. But anything that they can bring

187
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 4: in when it comes to AI, it's not going to

188
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 4: be able to tell you what pass interference is or

189
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 4: holding because in a lot of ways it's subjective. In fact,

190
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 4: they tried to bring in replay for pass interference a

191
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 4: couple of years ago and that didn't work.

192
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 2: They got rid of that after one year.

193
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 4: So AI and anything that they can bring whether it's

194
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 4: replay or AI to help out officiating.

195
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 2: They're trying to make the product better.

196
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 4: They'd also love to have more officials that they possibly could,

197
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 4: So if you at home would like to be an official,

198
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 4: send in.

199
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 2: Your application to high school college and work your way

200
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: up into the NFL.

201
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: Tom Cowboys cornerback Trayvon Diggs is in the building, but

202
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: still not practicing it for suffering a concussion in an

203
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 1: incident at his home last week. Cowboys defense actually played

204
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 1: better without him last week and may have to do

205
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: it again on Sunday in a big game at Denver.

206
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are right back in it in the NFC

207
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: East Race, and they're going to be going up against

208
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: the Orange Crush, not the actual Orange Crush, but it's

209
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: gonna look very similar. One of the best throwback uniform

210
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: is going to be complimented by a beautiful field design.

211
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: That thing actually looks like a real live Bronco. Let's

212
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 1: welcome in our Brian Baldinger and Mark Ross to the conversation. Baldy,

213
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: this has been a fun Cowboys team and offense to

214
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: watch so far this season. You broke down the tape,

215
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: You do it as well as anybody. Tell me what

216
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: you're seeing right now from Dallas.

217
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 10: Well, it's a great offense. I mean, run and pass.

218
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 11: There's a rhythm to it, there's a design to it

219
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 11: that I think Dak is playing the best football he

220
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 11: has ever played. Leads the league right now with sixteen

221
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 11: touchdown passes. But it's fun to watch. I mean, they

222
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 11: called plays and Dak knows exactly where to go with

223
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 11: the ball. Like it's this is third and one, last week,

224
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 11: CD back in the uniform right here. They're going to

225
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 11: call this plate for CD. It's going to be a

226
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 11: double slant with him and Jake Ferguson. But the key

227
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 11: is the balls out, one, two, three, balls out. Dak

228
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 11: hits his back step and he hits him throw. This

229
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 11: is a two step hitch and throw to Pickings on

230
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 11: this go route right here. And look when he's throwing it.

231
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 11: When he's released to the ball, he's thrown it to

232
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 11: a spot He's trusting his receiver Pickings to get it.

233
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 11: He gives him enough room on the sideline to get it. Now,

234
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 11: this is third and twelve and he's going to hit

235
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 11: the tight end over the middle here, but it's a

236
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 11: five step drop hitch and throw. He needs a little

237
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 11: more time for a purgoson to get down the field

238
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 11: right in front of the safety, perfect location, over seventy

239
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 11: percent completion percentage were do right.

240
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 10: Now, and then you know you can get this third

241
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 10: and five right here.

242
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 11: Man coverage Lotimore's trail and George Pickens right here and

243
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 11: again he's going to give him a little bit of

244
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 11: time to work, but he he's got pressure right in

245
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 11: his face. He hitched the balls out before he makes

246
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 11: his break. That's great time. And you see this play

247
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 11: in play out and then what it's done to passing game.

248
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 11: It's given him a lot of favorable running situations. Two

249
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 11: safeties deep. Let's run it on first and ten. Javonte

250
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 11: Williams is having a renaissance no matter who he's running behind.

251
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 10: But this is a well blocked play. Full scoop right

252
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 10: here gets him into the alley. He's on his way to.

253
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 11: The safety right here, picking up nine yards to that

254
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 11: first down run.

255
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 10: It's just a great offense right.

256
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 11: Now between Brian Schottenheimer, Clayton Adams who came over from Arizona,

257
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 11: and what Dak is doing right now. Whether CD was

258
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 11: in the lineup not in the lineup, there is a

259
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 11: rhythm to this offense that is undeniable and it's really

260
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 11: lead to great production.

261
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 12: Baldy completely agreed. I don't think he's just playing great.

262
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 12: I think he's the MVP of the league up to

263
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 12: this point, and that is because I always liked DK

264
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 12: and thought he was a certain level, but didn't know

265
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 12: if he had the ability to take his game to

266
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 12: another level and take the whole offense to another level.

267
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: Well, he is absolutely doing that this year.

268
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 12: Where I watched the Cowboys, especially when CD went down,

269
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 12: I was like, oh boy, they're done with Well, Dak

270
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 12: got even better and he raised everybody's level. George Pickens

271
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 12: making huge plays every game, guys coming out of the woodwork,

272
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 12: Ferguson there with three touchdowns touchdown game. So he's raised

273
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 12: the level of everybody on that offense. And the thing

274
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 12: that's impressed he most about Dak is just Baldy. He's

275
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 12: unflappable in the pocket. I mean, stuff goes around him

276
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 12: and pressure and he just steps in there, delivers on time,

277
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 12: He delivers with accuracy, and he just always looks like

278
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 12: he is in command and confident where he's going with

279
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 12: the football. So I think this will continue. CD getting

280
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 12: worked back into the offense even more. This Cowboys team

281
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 12: is going to be a problem for anybody. This Cowboys offense,

282
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 12: and if that defense could just make one or two

283
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 12: stops a game or get one or two turnovers, they

284
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 12: really can beat anybody.

285
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 2: Now can they do that?

286
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,599
Speaker 12: We'll see, But the Cowboys will be right into it

287
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 12: at the end because of the way Dak is playing

288
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 12: and has that offense rolling.

289
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 13: Taylor floats it down the seat towards.

290
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 4: JC Hard, No one handed takeaway. The Panthers get the

291
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 4: ball back now, JC Punch just talked hard, finally got

292
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 4: some work.

293
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 7: What a catch.

294
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 1: One of the most ridiculous interceptions that you are ever

295
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: going to see. And you can see the reaction from

296
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: everybody on the internet, current players, former players, anyone who

297
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: saw that.

298
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 2: Trying to figure out the sheer physics of our next guest.

299
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: It is Panthers Pro Bowl cornerback JC Horn with me,

300
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: Tom Pelisero, and our friend Bridget Connon here.

301
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 2: On the Insiders.

302
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: Jasey A lot I want to talk to you about,

303
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: but start off with just taking me through that play.

304
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: To me, it almost looked like a you know, a

305
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: center fielder in baseball going back, you're kind of checking

306
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: the wall, you find the ball at the last second there.

307
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 2: Just walk me through that play and what you're seeing.

308
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, man, just quarters look from us.

309
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 14: It was in quarters a quarter quarter a half across

310
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 14: the boarding. The receiver had a step on me because

311
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 14: I thought I had my safety with me, so I was.

312
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 7: Playing low on it.

313
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 14: And yeah, and like you said, I checked the fight

314
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 14: at the ball and then I checked for the receiver

315
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 14: to see where he was, and I felt like I

316
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 14: could get to it, so I just kept my eyes

317
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 14: in this kind and played the football.

318
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 15: You've made a couple of those crazy one handed interceptions

319
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 15: this season, and you kind of mentioned earlier in the

320
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 15: season that it was due to maybe only practicing with

321
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 15: one hand during training camp.

322
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 2: What's the story there, Yeah.

323
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 14: Yeah, So before we joined practice the Browns, I got

324
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 14: into a small car accident. Had to get a couple

325
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 14: of stitches in my in my left hand, so I

326
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 14: was practicing with a cast over in an Indy individual.

327
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 14: I had to catch everything one hand on my right hand,

328
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 14: and ye had it didn't paid off to the first

329
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 14: in the first half of the season.

330
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 7: As you can see, I.

331
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 14: Hadn't caught two one hands with my right hand, So

332
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 14: you know, you got to steal the reps when you

333
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 14: can listen.

334
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: You've been making plays since you got into the league,

335
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: but this is the first time we've had you on

336
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: this show to talk about the Panthers being above five hundred.

337
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: The Panthers are in the playoff chaser, one game out

338
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: of first place right now in the NFC South Division.

339
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: Just tell me about the evolution, especially over this season

340
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: and a half since Dave Canalis and the staff came in.

341
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: How have you guys gotten into this position where you're

342
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: out there competing right now with the NFL's best.

343
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 14: Yeah, just a testament to the to the organization, to

344
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 14: the coaches that they put together, to the team they

345
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 14: put together. You know, us, like you said, we ain't

346
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 14: been to we ain't been the best team over the last.

347
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 7: Couple of couple of years.

348
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 14: But you know, it brought us closer to losing, brought

349
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 14: us closer as a team, and now we just we're

350
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 14: playing for each other.

351
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 7: You know, we're finishing games h strong.

352
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 14: You know, even the games we lost, we feel like

353
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 14: we a team that finished real good in the second half.

354
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 7: So now we just put it together.

355
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 14: But you know, we still got a long way to

356
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 14: go and just taking it week by week and trying

357
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 14: to get better and reach our best.

358
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 15: So you guys have won four of the last five,

359
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 15: but not really acting like it. Everything I've been told

360
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 15: is you and Derek Brown are kind of keeping the

361
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 15: team grounded. You don't want people to get too excited of,

362
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 15: you know, about what's happening. dB also hasn't let you

363
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 15: guys have a victory Monday. What's the importance of having

364
00:16:59,080 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 15: the mindset like that.

365
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 14: Yeah, in the NFL, like as you'll know, it's a

366
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 14: long season and I've been going back today is like

367
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 14: my rookie year. We started three and oh and then

368
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 14: it was it was downhill from there. So we know

369
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 14: how I like to be on a little small winds

370
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 14: streak and then you know it's it's the best teams

371
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 14: in the league, so you can get guy any Sunday.

372
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 14: So we're just trying to, you know, stay focused, and

373
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 14: we don't we don't really have any room to get

374
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 14: laxed or you know, get victory Monday or anything like that.

375
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 14: And we just, like I said, trying to reach our

376
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 14: best as a team and you know, hopefully I have a

377
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 14: shot in the playoffs at the end.

378
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 7: Of the season.

379
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: At this time of year ago, your quarterback Bryce Young

380
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: is riding the bench. He's the backup quarterback behind Andy Dalton.

381
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: I know his status is in doubt for this Sunday.

382
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 1: Didn't practice today. But when you're talking about the growth

383
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: and really the renaissance of Bryce Young stepping in, what

384
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 1: types of things have you seen from him that are

385
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: maybe different than they were even.

386
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 7: A year ago.

387
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 14: I would say when when mayjor thing is just his leadership,

388
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 14: you know obviously, you know, being a number one pick

389
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 14: and I'll come into a locker room full of grown

390
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 14: man it's not easy to.

391
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 7: You know, voice europeon or lead and you know, Bryce,

392
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 7: I feel like he didn't stepped up in that area

393
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 7: a lot. And also just his confidence and his swagger.

394
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 14: I feel like he plays with more of that, and uh,

395
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 14: you know, I just got a lot of respect for him,

396
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 14: like you said, you know, uh, being put on the

397
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 14: bench last year and coming back finishing the season strong,

398
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 14: and even this year, you know, he's playing playing.

399
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 7: Good for us.

400
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 14: So I'm just excited to see him keep growing and

401
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 14: we go as he goes. So as long as long

402
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 14: as he's growing and playing good, you know, I feel

403
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:29,199
Speaker 14: like we're gonna be.

404
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 7: A good team.

405
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 15: You've got the bills Josh Allen this Sunday. What's the

406
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 15: key for you guys in the secondary to containing him?

407
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 15: And you know a guy like Josh Allen can make

408
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 15: throws from anywhere.

409
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, great player.

410
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 14: Uh, And the key is, you know, I feel like

411
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 14: just you know, staying focused all game because you know,

412
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 14: he one of those players that could change the game

413
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 14: in one play. You know, he makes spectacular plays all schedule,

414
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 14: you know, scrambling around looking for the big plays. So

415
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 14: you know in the secondary we're gonna have to plaster

416
00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 14: a lot. We had to be disciplined in our wrestlane

417
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,719
Speaker 14: is but great player. It's a great challenge for us.

418
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 14: And you know we can't wait.

419
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 2: Jacy. We've had you on this show before.

420
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 1: We had you right after you sign that big contract

421
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: in the offseason, whether it's getting paid or it's making picks.

422
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 1: Like you have this very flat line type of personality

423
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: when you're with us. You're very calm and collected, but

424
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 1: like I want you on Sundays.

425
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 2: There's another there's another gear there. How do you find it?

426
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 2: What do you eat? What do you do?

427
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: What do you listen to what isn't that brings out

428
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: that other guy on Sundays.

429
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 7: Now, I don't know it's been that way, says it

430
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 7: care for me.

431
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 14: I think you just football thisself bring out that other

432
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 14: side for me. You able to put that helmet on

433
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 14: and you don't have to beat this nice, quiet guy.

434
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 7: When you're on the field.

435
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 14: In between those lines, you get to just let loose

436
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 14: for three hours and you know, dominate.

437
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 7: So I feel like that's what it is.

438
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 14: You're also catching me right after practice, so I'm ready

439
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 14: to shower and get the means and go home.

440
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: Hey well, Josh Allen, if you're watching this, enjoy the

441
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: smiles right now because you're gonna see a completely different

442
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: JC Horn on Sunday. Jac thanks as always for the

443
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 1: time man, keep rolling out there.

444
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 7: Yes, sir, I appreciate you. I having.

445
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: We gave kicks off Thursday night. It's the Vikings, it's

446
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: the Chargers. It's Kevin o'call for the first time against

447
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh, who also interviewed with Minnesota before they hired O'Connell.

448
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 2: Is that a revenge game?

449
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, Steve, which has answers though he's with

450
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 1: us next and the Insiders presented by Progressive Insurance.

451
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 4: We gave it is almost upon us Thursday Night Football.

452
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 4: That's a cool graphic right there, Vikings Chargers.

453
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 2: That one done by the Vikings Social Team.

454
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 4: Nice job right there, as that's got that so cal vibe.

455
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 4: You got the Chargers looking to get right here. I mean,

456
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 4: I think we thought they were going to cruise in

457
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 4: the playoffs. Now obviously it's going to have to be

458
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 4: something Steve Weiss that they are going to have to

459
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 4: battle for here. A big problem for them been offensive

460
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 4: line injuries. Joe Allt has not played in the month

461
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 4: of October the left tackle, although he did say earlier

462
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 4: this week he is expecting to go. That would be

463
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 4: huge if that winds up being the case for the

464
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:11,640
Speaker 4: Chargers team.

465
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like the Chargers have lost three their last four.

466
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 13: They've had to use four or five different offensive line combinations.

467
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 13: But alt, their best offensive lineman who started the season

468
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 13: left tackle, has been out with a high ankle spring.

469
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 13: I was at their walk through practice on Tuesday. He's

470
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 13: been practicing in a limited fashion over the past few

471
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 13: days and said he does.

472
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 2: Expect to play.

473
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 13: Now he's being listed as questionable, but head coach Jim

474
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 13: Harbaugh did make it sound like alt we'll be back

475
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 13: in the lineup, and that's going to be huge for

476
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 13: an offense, for an offensive line, especially that's allowed Justin Herbert,

477
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 13: the starting quarterback, to get hit well one hundred and

478
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 13: third pressure to one hundred and thirty five times and

479
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 13: hit sixty two times. Those a one hundred and thirty

480
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 13: five pressures like are thirty more than any other quarterback

481
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 13: in the NFL. So getting all back could help. And

482
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 13: there is the possibility that right tackle Trey Pipkins, who's

483
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 13: been out with a knee injury, could return. He's been

484
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 13: practicing on a limited basis, but it didn't sound quite

485
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 13: as optimistic about getting the other bookend tackle back.

486
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 4: Eventually, they'll get back to their starting offensive line without

487
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,159
Speaker 4: rush On Slater when they lost in training camp, for

488
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 4: their starting offensive line at least to begin the regular season.

489
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 4: You were at that practice today because you're covering this

490
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 4: game for us for NFL Game Day kickoff tomorrow, so

491
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 4: I know you've got some thoughts on the Viking side

492
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 4: of things with his defense, Brian Flores, you talked about

493
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 4: Herbert getting hit.

494
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 2: You can do that with a lot of other things.

495
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 2: That flow does up front, right.

496
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 13: Yeah, But I spoke to Johnson Grenard, the edge rusher

497
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 13: who only has one sack. By the way, we know

498
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 13: how prolific he's been over the past few seasons, and

499
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 13: he was saying, like, look, a lot of times when

500
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 13: they face teams that have had offensive line issues, injuries,

501
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 13: rotations like the Chargers have, people think and his words,

502
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 13: that the Vikings will have an onslaught. But he said

503
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 13: that they respect the coaches there, and they respect the players,

504
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 13: and they know what's going to be challenged, but challenging.

505
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 13: But in terms of living up to that Viking standard,

506
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 13: he said, they have not been able to do that,

507
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 13: and they have got to force Justin Herbert, the NFL's

508
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 13: leading passer, to throw the ball. They want to get

509
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 13: him into some known passing situations because they do think

510
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 13: they can come up with some creative pressure packages to

511
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 13: get him off his spot. Would you know, Justin Herbert

512
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 13: has thrown some interceptions in those losses, So that's what

513
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 13: they're trying to generate when they come to town to

514
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 13: face the Chargers on Thursday.

515
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 4: I mentioned NFL game day kickoffs just one of your responsibilities,

516
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 4: the other one being this very program. The Insider Steve

517
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 4: Weisch will join us on Thursday to break down that game.

518
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 4: He's got more left to unload on your folks.

519
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: That's coming up on Thursday.

520
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 5: Judy two, our tongue of Faioloa has had some rough

521
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 5: outings on the field the last two weeks. Six interceptions

522
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 5: over the last two games. He's also had some rough

523
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 5: turns at the microphone. Frankly, here is Dolphins coach Mike

524
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 5: McDaniel on his quarterback.

525
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 16: We had a a great hour and a half meeting yesterday.

526
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 16: We had a great hour meeting the day before. As

527
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 16: as two and I have always operated. I think there's

528
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 16: zero uncertainty with Tua on my conviction and him and

529
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 16: my belief in him. So I think we're we're both very,

530
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 16: very eager to do better at our jobs, and we're

531
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 16: we're both very committed and trusting of each other to

532
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 16: to respond to what is necessary for the team to

533
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 16: do better.

534
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 17: You got to have that in a in a relationship.

535
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 17: It can't always be man, here's your flowers, here's here's

536
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 17: rose is.

537
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 7: Hey, man, you had a bad game.

538
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 17: It's all right, buddy, Like you got to have those

539
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 17: tough conversations and I've had those tough conversations with him

540
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 17: this week. We met yesterday, we at the day before,

541
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 17: last week, and the week prior, you know, with what

542
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 17: we want to accomplish.

543
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 10: How can we.

544
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 17: Get our guys going, but more importantly, how can we

545
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 17: stay in there offensively, put points on the board and

546
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 17: help our guys win the game whenever that opportunity comes,

547
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 17: if it's for the offense.

548
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 2: To do so, Oh to be a fly on the wall.

549
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 5: During those conversations, Bucky Brooks joins the insiders. Let's talk

550
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 5: about some struggling offenses, and certainly the Miami Dolphins offense

551
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 5: is struggling big time. Is this still fixable, Bucky?

552
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 2: Or are they broken beyond repair?

553
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 18: They're broken beyond repair, and they're broken beyond repair because

554
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 18: the guy who was really the lynch fin to this

555
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,640
Speaker 18: offense being one of the more dynamic and explosive offenses

556
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 18: the first couple of years of Mike McDaniels tenior is

557
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 18: not available and that's Tyreek Keel. When Tyreek Hill is

558
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 18: on the field, everyone has to tilt the coverage in

559
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 18: his direction with him not there. I like Jayden Waller,

560
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 18: but Jalen Waller is the number one receiver that will

561
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 18: command that kind of attention, and so you have that

562
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 18: missing piece gone.

563
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 2: You also have the league that is caught up.

564
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,360
Speaker 18: To the side to side horizontal nature of the offense

565
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 18: that Mike McDaniels runs. They were explosive because they were

566
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 18: fastening everybody. They would get the ball on the perimeter

567
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 18: and outrun people to the edges. Now they're taking that away,

568
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 18: And because you don't have the vertical element with Tyreek Hill,

569
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 18: they're forcing the Miami Dolphins to basically play half court

570
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 18: basketball and without a dominant running game. Because the offensive

571
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,479
Speaker 18: line has not necessarily played up to par, they just

572
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 18: don't have enough to get it done. Look, I love

573
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 18: to a tongue about Loway, and I like Mike mcdenne's

574
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 18: and what he was able to do from a creative standpoint,

575
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 18: But right now, the personnel of the scheme and those things,

576
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 18: it doesn't mesh. And it's going to be really, really

577
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 18: hard to put this back together without Tyreek Hill.

578
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 10: On the perimeter.

579
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 5: All Right, we saw the struggles on national television of

580
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 5: the Houston Texans offense. Are they broken or are they fixable?

581
00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 10: Yuck?

582
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 2: That's the first thing that's sick at the Texas offense.

583
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 18: It doesn't make sense. They have a quarterback who has

584
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 18: played at a very, very high level. There is time

585
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 18: in his NFL career to not be able to figure

586
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 18: it out. And it's not really CJ. Stroud, it's just

587
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 18: the scheme does not match. It doesn't necessarily make sense.

588
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 18: You have enough weapons to be able to get this done.

589
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 18: Nico Collins is one of the best wide receivers in

590
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 18: the league. They have a quarterback that is a dime dropper.

591
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 18: They have other pieces in place, but they just can't

592
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 18: get it done now. Joe Mitchen is not available. And

593
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 18: last year, what Joe Mitchen did, he was able to

594
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 18: kind of steady the offense out with the running game.

595
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 18: But without a consistent running game, so much is on CJ.

596
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 18: Stroud and the scheme just doesn't create winners for him,

597
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 18: enough winners for this offense to exist without a running game.

598
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 18: I just don't see how they get this done in

599
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 18: the near future, particularly with the Indianapolis Colts running away

600
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 18: with division.

601
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 2: I just think this offense is broken beyond repair.

602
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 5: All Right, The Bengals offense is actually working much better

603
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 5: since Joe Flacco got There are five touchdowns, no interceptions

604
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 5: with him as the starter, can he keep the Bengals

605
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 5: in contention until Joe Burrow can return in December?

606
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 18: Judy Yes, And I'm gonna say this as a retired gamer,

607
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,919
Speaker 18: if I could pick up the sticks and play with

608
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 18: his team, I will play with the.

609
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals with Joe Flecco.

610
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 18: And part of that reason is because he is going

611
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,439
Speaker 18: to air it out without fear. And when you think

612
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 18: about the weapons that Cincinnati Bingos have on the outside,

613
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 18: Jamar Chase on one side, t Higgins on the other,

614
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 18: you still have multiple tide ends that can get loose

615
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 18: down the middle. They can attack you in so many

616
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 18: different ways. And because Joe Flacco has seen every possible

617
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 18: defensive tack is that you can throw at this offense.

618
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 2: He knows how to stay in attack mode and Chase.

619
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 18: Brown being able to give them a similus of a

620
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 18: running game because now defenses have the back off. The

621
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 18: Cincinnati Bengals have found something, and they found something in

622
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 18: a very old quarterback who still has a little life.

623
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 10: Lifting it all.

624
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 4: Let's stuck it down, hurts fakes, he's packed, he's looking,

625
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 4: he is going deep.

626
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 10: He wants the funte smith.

627
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 4: He has it twenty fifteen ten to five touchdown, the

628
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 4: fun times Smith beat Rogers.

629
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 2: They set that one up perfectly.

630
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 13: Smithy just outruns a secondary and into the end zone

631
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 13: for the touchdown.

632
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 12: I don't say seventy done yard touchdown pass from Hertz

633
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 12: to the Vontee Smith, perfectly.

634
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 10: Thrown ball by Jalen Hurts. He dropped a dime.

635
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 2: And they all lived happily.

636
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 4: Ever, maybe for one week at least. Brian Baldinger and

637
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 4: Mark ross Baldi, You've got the call on Eagles Giants

638
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 4: for Compass Media this coming Sunday. I have the coverage

639
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 4: for NFL Network, so we'll be hanging out on the

640
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 4: sidelines pregame.

641
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 2: They made some challenges or some change. Excuse me. I

642
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 2: did talk about it coming into that game.

643
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 4: They wanted to lean on the running game more, and

644
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 4: they did early on, but at some point they had

645
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 4: to open it up because Minnesota was king on that

646
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 4: running game obviously, So your thoughts on the Eagles offensive

647
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 4: change a little more under center as well?

648
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, they did.

649
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 11: And I talked to Kevin Patula before the game on

650
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 11: the sideline and they wanted to go under seven.

651
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 10: They wanted to play action. The play action pass it.

652
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 11: We just saw DeVante Smith for seventy nine yards and

653
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 11: third quarter was a result of that.

654
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 10: They also did somewhere.

655
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 11: You know, Jalen, like a lot of quarterbacks the league,

656
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 11: under center, you know, full play action where he's turning

657
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 11: his back to the defense, seven step drops, getting the

658
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 11: ball down the field. They wanted to get more of

659
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 11: that because they wanted more explosive plays and they just

660
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 11: weren't getting them, and so they kind of looked at

661
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 11: what a lot of other.

662
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 10: Teams were doing in the league and they're like, we

663
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 10: could do the same thing. And so, you know, Jalen

664
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 10: had a career day and a lot of guys got fed,

665
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 10: and guy's pretty happy.

666
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 11: But I thought that was a pretty significant The other thing,

667
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 11: when Jalen's under center, you know, Saquan is seven or

668
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 11: eight yards deep and he I talked to Saquan about that,

669
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 11: and he wanted that opportunity to have more time to

670
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 11: see back lanes and.

671
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 10: Some opportunities that he did get earlier in the game.

672
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 11: He didn't have a great yarnage game, but I thought

673
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 11: he had a couple of good runs and I think

674
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 11: we'll see more of that against the Giants this Sunday Mark,

675
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 11: because I think it's something that they need to evolve into,

676
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 11: just because the way teams are playing in this league

677
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 11: right now, with those umbrella and shell defenses, you got

678
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 11: to find ways to get ball down the field and

679
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 11: play actions working for a lot of good offenses in.

680
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 12: This league, right Baldy, I'm talking about getting the ball downfield.

681
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 12: What did we see throughout this season about Jalen and

682
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 12: those receivers, the miss balls downfield that he didn't hit,

683
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 12: And I think that was the biggest part of that game.

684
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 12: But why he was so sharp is that he executed

685
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 12: and he hit the big plays downfield to AJ, to Devonte,

686
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 12: the touchdown in the fourth quarter to AJ Brown. You

687
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 12: couldn't on that skinny post, you can't throw a better

688
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 12: ball than that than Jalen did. So that was the

689
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 12: sharpest I have seen him since the Super Bowl.

690
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 2: But then also.

691
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 12: Layering that was that he made play when there was pressure.

692
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 12: So he made plays when it was on time, within rhythm.

693
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 12: But that third and thirteen play where he got out

694
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 12: of pressure in the fourth quarter and hit Aj on

695
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 12: the sideline, I mean that shows you the magic that

696
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 12: he has. So I thought that was the biggest play

697
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 12: of the game. So if they can execute like they

698
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 12: did against Minnesota against the Giants, then they'll be rolled

699
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 12: in the rest of the season.

700
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,760
Speaker 4: Jalen Hurts was asked today by the media about Jackson Dart,

701
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 4: having seen him live a couple of weeks ago, in

702
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 4: that Eagle's disappointing loss to the Giants, but certainly not

703
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 4: disappointing from the Giants end of things.

704
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 2: Their rookies were sensational.

705
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 4: Baldy Dart had the fourth and nineteen play the other

706
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 4: day against Denver and some other impressive plays, had the

707
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 4: interception as well, So you're looking at his tape from

708
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 4: a rookie perspective, some really good stuff to build on.

709
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 10: I assume right.

710
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 11: I think he has pretty rare pocket presence. It's not

711
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 11: something I believe you can coach. I believe you have it,

712
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 11: you don't have it. He doesn't panic, but he doesn't

713
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 11: play frantically either.

714
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 10: He steps, he finds the old.

715
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 11: This is he did it a number of times against

716
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 11: the league, that against the team Sunday that leads the

717
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 11: league in SAPs. And you know, he keeps his eyes

718
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 11: down the field during the whole time, even like right here,

719
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 11: like this ability just to step up and then make

720
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 11: this throw right here to Bellinger for.

721
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 10: The first touchdown of the game.

722
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 11: It's an example of it, but there were four or

723
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 11: five examples of that. Now it's nice, it'd be good

724
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 11: if you know me. It's good to have a little

725
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 11: luck like that fel coming and taking that ball off

726
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 11: the miss catch bike why now? But he has rare

727
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 11: pocket presence that shows up week in week out that

728
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 11: allows them to make some of these plays off schedule,

729
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,479
Speaker 11: as Brian Dable likes to call loose plays.

730
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 10: He creates those because of his movement.

731
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 12: No doubt, Maudy, you saw that at all, miss, and

732
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 12: that's why the Giants were so exciting. You're seeing already

733
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 12: why they trade it up to get the guy because

734
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 12: you do see that movement and that moxie and his toughness.

735
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 12: I would like to see him stop trying to emulate

736
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 12: his buddy Cam's gataboo. And you know every game he's

737
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 12: taking hits and he's kind of limping around, so it

738
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 12: starts starting to get down a little bit more. But yeah,

739
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 12: that'll be important for the Giants again if they want

740
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 12: to upset the Eagles in that first matchup. They really

741
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 12: the Giants bully bullied.

742
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 2: You know, the Eagles up.

743
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,839
Speaker 12: Front were scattab who had ninety eight yards rushing and

744
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 12: then Jackson Dart had fifty eight. So it'll be interesting

745
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 12: to see if they come with that game plan again,

746
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,160
Speaker 12: if they can bully the Giants the Eagles again in

747
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 12: the run game. But you know the Eagles are going

748
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 12: to be focused on that, so Ken Jackson Dart take

749
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 12: his game to another level there to counteract with. You know,

750
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 12: VIC Dangers going to try to cut out there.

751
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 1: And now for good coverage presented by Progressive Insurance. The

752
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: Bears defense has forced three plus takeaways in each of

753
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 1: their last four games, all Chicago wins. That ties to

754
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:43,959
Speaker 1: the longest streak since the twenty nineteen Steelers went five

755
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: straight games with at least three takeaways. Bears also lead

756
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: the league with three games of at least four takeaways.

757
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: Dennis Allen doing one heck of a job. They look

758
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: for their fifth straight wins Sunday against the one and

759
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: five Ravens. I got a fantasy team that's won in

760
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: six Why, well, I we don't have a perfect lineup

761
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: in that league. If he did have the perfect lineup

762
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: last week, this is what it would have looked like.

763
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: Not some surprises like Christian McCaffrey and Jamar Chase. Definitely

764
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 1: surprises with the likes of Bo Nicks working his way

765
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: into that mix. If you don't know perfect lineup, well

766
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 1: it's time to Marcus. My words were accurately Marcus Marcus

767
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:30,280
Speaker 1: Grant's words about his fantasy sleepers going into week eight. Marcus,

768
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 1: you've been on a hot streak on this show. Give

769
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 1: me somebody at the quarterback position you'd put out there

770
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:37,240
Speaker 1: that people aren't thinking about.

771
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 19: Well, obviously, we got six teams on a buy this week,

772
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 19: so a lot of people look at for quarterback help.

773
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 19: Michael Pinnox has a really good opportunity, and I know

774
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,359
Speaker 19: for the most part it's been sort of with him

775
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 19: in fantasy this year, but he's done well in positive matchups.

776
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 19: Had twenty four points against the Bucks in Week one,

777
00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,319
Speaker 19: eighteen against Washington in Week four. Great matchup this week

778
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 19: against the Dolphins. They are the fourth best matchup for

779
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,400
Speaker 19: quarterbacks this season. Only two guys have had fewer than

780
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 19: eighteen points against the Dolphins. One was Bryce Young when

781
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 19: ric o'dowdell was running for two hundred yards. The other

782
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 19: was Dylan Gabriel and his second career start in a

783
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 19: rain storm Vinifiliga four. A running back, may I suggest

784
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 19: Cuba Hubbard, which maybe wasn't a sleeper in the early

785
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 19: part of the year, but with Rico Dowdell taking over,

786
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 19: it's become a two man backfield there in Carolina. Last week,

787
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 19: Hubbard led in snaps. The touches were nearly identical this week,

788
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 19: with Andy Dalton likely getting the start. I expect Carolina

789
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 19: to lean on their running game going against that Bill's

790
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,880
Speaker 19: run defense that's given up nearly six yards per attempt

791
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 19: so far this season. Only the Titans have given up

792
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 19: more rushing touchdowns to running backs than the Bills have,

793
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 19: So Cuba very much in play this week.

794
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 1: Six buys tons of injuries clear at the tight end position.

795
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 1: Everybody was riding the Darren Waller train for two three

796
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 1: weeks there he just landed on ir They might need

797
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: some help.

798
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 2: Who should they be picking up?

799
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 19: Mason Taylor has been a very popular ad and a

800
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 19: very popular streaming option for a lot of folks this season.

801
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 19: Breeze Hall right now day to day. Garrett Wilson not

802
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 19: practicing on Wednesday, so Mason.

803
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 10: Taylor, come on down.

804
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 19: He's been the number two target in this offense and

805
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 19: it hasn't mattered if it was justin fields or Tyrod

806
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 19: Taylor on the field. Now he's got a great matchup

807
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 19: against Cincinnati. Been bad in pretty much every single regard.

808
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 19: Then at wide receiver. Look at Wandale Robinson, who very

809
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 19: quietly is the wide receiver. Nineteen through seven weeks, He's

810
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 19: top twenty in the league in targets, receptions, and receiving

811
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 19: yards twenty five percent target share within the context of

812
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 19: the offense. Had a twenty point game when the Giants

813
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 19: played the Eagles just a couple of weeks ago. So

814
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 19: I would expect, you know, with the Giants obviously leaning

815
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 19: heavily on Jackson Dart and camp Scataboo, Wandale Robinson's going

816
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 19: to be a big part of things as well.

817
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: I am a habitual streamer of defense. Marcus picked up

818
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,920
Speaker 1: the Rams last week, big performance. Now they got to

819
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: buy who should I pick up?

820
00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 19: If the Colts are still out there, and they are

821
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 19: out there in a surprising number of leagues, I would

822
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:55,919
Speaker 19: go grab them.

823
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 10: Now.

824
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 19: Last week I told you to go get the Patriots

825
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 19: going against the Titans, in New England eighty nineteen points.

826
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 19: I know the Titans making some changes on offense, Mike

827
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 19: McCoy taking over as the interim head coach. They're trying

828
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 19: to simplify the offense. But until they show me something,

829
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,839
Speaker 19: we're still targeting them. They're not good on the ground,

830
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,919
Speaker 19: they're not great through the air. They give a ton

831
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 19: of giveaways. They have the second most sacks that they've surrendered.

832
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,359
Speaker 19: The Colts have been very good defensively and on their

833
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 19: way to what they have one of the best records

834
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 19: in the NFL right now. So until I see some

835
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 19: more out of Tennessee, I'm going to keep targeting with

836
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 19: my streaming defense.

837
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:28,320
Speaker 2: Spoiler.

838
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: I did pick up the Colts already, put them in

839
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: for the Rams, drop Darren Waller in the process. See,

840
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 1: this is a very personal segment for me. It all

841
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,959
Speaker 1: comes together. Marcus, Thank you very much. We will see

842
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: you next Wednesday. Still want to come here on this show.

843
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 1: Including some wise words from a man who, well, like

844
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,800
Speaker 1: a lot of dads, has been enjoying a bit of

845
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,840
Speaker 1: a loan time wisdom from Joe Flacco. Next on The

846
00:38:50,840 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: Insiders presented by Progressive Insurance, Joe Blacker was a winner

847
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: in his second Bengals start, and hear him tell today

848
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 1: he's also been a winner in other ways that he

849
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 1: might not have expected.

850
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 2: After a surprise trade to Cincinnati.

851
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,759
Speaker 20: I think there's always a challenge of sitting in a

852
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 20: room by yourself and being lonely.

853
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 2: So for me, it's trying to find ways to maybe stay.

854
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 7: Over here a little bit longer.

855
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 20: And then, you know, just kind of take myself out

856
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 20: of that mindset, call home, go sit at a restaurant

857
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,840
Speaker 20: by myself and realize that, man, that's pretty enjoyable to do,

858
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 20: you know, after there's not too many situations.

859
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:42,279
Speaker 7: I tell people all the time.

860
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 20: I used to see guys sitting at a bar by themselves,

861
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,240
Speaker 20: or you know, just sitting by themselves, eating and grabbing

862
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 20: a little meal, and I'm like, man, I feel so

863
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 20: bad for that guy. You almost want to go join them.

864
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 20: And now I realize, like that dude was in Heaven.

865
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 10: Leave him alone.

866
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 2: That guy is fine, perfectly fine.

867
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,240
Speaker 4: Nobody's asking him for the Wi Fi password for their tablet.

868
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,600
Speaker 2: Nobody's got a pee.

869
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 4: As soon as the foods come, food comes, nobody's under

870
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 4: the table.

871
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 2: Have I described my dining experience with my daughters lately.

872
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:17,359
Speaker 2: That's kind of what it is right there.

873
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: Actually, I'm dying with your family, Mike, and I believe

874
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 1: at one point your daughter was trying to stick her

875
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 1: finger in a plug directly above and then fell. Do

876
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 1: you remember this, got her shoes stuck or something.

877
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 2: It was a whole thing.

878
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy. Well I actually don't. That's that's how

879
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 4: normal that is for me, Judy Go.

880
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 5: That's as relatable as I have ever heard a pro

881
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 5: athlete b like that is. He was speaking to all

882
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 5: of us who have children and all of us who

883
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,399
Speaker 5: have spouses, frankly, and I love them all.

884
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: But oh man, Anthony, so we have photo shoes watching

885
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 1: this show right now.

886
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 2: So point out I'm.

887
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: Taking the kids out to dinner right now after the show.

888
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a great times. Said, look see you

889
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: tomorrow night. Snow Fast back on Friday.

890
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:07,720
Speaker 2: See you
