You guys were roommates, you guys 37 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 3: were teammates, and what I need to know from you 38 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 3: is was there a moment in your guys' friendship that 39 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 3: you really realized that at some level he could be 40 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 3: a very successful coach? 41 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: Yes, easily, I want that started with his work ethic. 42 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: I'll just start that. 43 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 5: I think it was the first one to really play 44 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 5: out of all of us as a freshman and whatnot. 45 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 5: But his delivery into saying and he said it, adam ly, 46 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 5: I'm doing three years and I'm out. So to understand 47 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 5: there was a plan for him even towards ACL and 48 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 5: still got it. 49 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 2: But it started with coach Chevis. 50 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 5: John Chavis is a former defensive coordinator for the Tennessee Valls. 51 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: Mayo was the. 52 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 5: Green dot in college for a while. And for a 53 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 5: young guy to have that on his table, to be 54 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 5: able to make plays and also have the ability to 55 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 5: command the defense as a young dude, you understood that intellectually, 56 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 5: mentally right, mentally, he could handle the workload. And he 57 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 5: just continued to approach college honestly like a business to 58 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 5: where it wasn't just playing and starting. It was about 59 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 5: building something more than just making plays. 60 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: But did you think he had the ability to be 61 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: the head coach of the New England Patriots? To be 62 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 1: able to run And I mean, I know you yeah, 63 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: think that when you're nineteen. But I'm saying if someone 64 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: had said that to you, could you have said, yeah, 65 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: I could see that happening. 66 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 5: You could because he comes from a military fan base. 67 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 5: He's from the DMV area. It is that DC Maryland 68 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 5: Virginia area. His family is in the service. So his 69 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 5: upbringing with his brothers and his mom and his stepdad 70 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 5: tells you a lot about what he was going to 71 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 5: be able to do. So if you'd have told me, 72 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 5: I'd not It is like I could see Mayo doing 73 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 5: that super, just calculated in his movements, which is what 74 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 5: coaches have to be. 75 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: He was that way when he was younger. 76 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 5: Funny funny story is through college we all have you know, 77 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 5: we will date or you know, have like certain conversations 78 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 5: about who's going to be your wife and stuff like that, 79 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 5: and Nails is one one person that wanted to talk 80 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 5: to him. He was like, I can talk to him. 81 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 5: It's like, what are you talking about? It's like, well, 82 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 5: just look, I don't even think she make athletes. 83 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: I'm like, whoa Girod? Like why are you playing that 84 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: far ahead in life? 85 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 5: But that just gives you his mindset into where decision 86 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 5: making for himself was important, even if we're talking about DNA. Yes, yes, Mike, Michael, 87 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 5: why right now? 88 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: Roommate? 89 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 5: It was awesome competitive, it is what he was. We'd wrestle, 90 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 5: Oh my gosh. Just he was just a guy that 91 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 5: enjoyed college the right way and we used to laugh 92 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 5: and joke about certain things like my roommates were. I 93 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 5: will say, I'll Bragtice a little bit very successful considering 94 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 5: having five guys. Saint Claire Cannon, the business owner in 95 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 5: South Carolina, Robert Ayers first round draft pick to the 96 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 5: Denver Broncos now on the Tennessee Vall stuff. Inky Johnson, 97 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 5: Just say the name and you know who Inky is, right, 98 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 5: Giard Mayo first round draft pick, and myself so and 99 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 5: I'll be honest with you. The way we navigate and 100 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 5: walked on campus, we were considered somewhat lame or corny 101 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 5: for what you're supposed to be doing in college. 102 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: Right. 103 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 5: We didn't go out drinking on Thursday nights like other 104 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 5: guys did, or we weren't trying to be the first 105 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 5: ones to the party every weekend. We might've just had 106 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 5: a chill night. Our job was to be successful and 107 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 5: do everything it took to get to that point. 108 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 2: So that was our house motto. 109 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 5: Is everybody I always said, everybody eats right and everybody 110 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 5: was pulling in the right direction. So that's Mayo's mentality. 111 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 5: Was it that meant staying in and playing FIFA or 112 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 5: Madden or college football? We were going to do those 113 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 5: things because we needed rest for the next day for 114 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 5: workouts and holding each other accountable. I don't care if 115 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 5: it was hitting the line on every run. I don't 116 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 5: care if it was making weight. I don't care if 117 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 5: it's how many games you made in the summer, like 118 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 5: everything was pointed towards success, and it was all of 119 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 5: us had different leadership qualities. But I could tell you 120 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 5: this from the day Mayo just came on campus. He 121 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 5: just moved different and he showed that online of different 122 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 5: ways too. 123 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 3: Sounds like a house full of adults, like those are 124 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 3: grown ups. Those are grown up decisions to make when you're. 125 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: Different. Episode So, topic number two, Jeron. 126 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 3: Mayo called his team soft after they lost to the 127 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 3: Jags in London. Two part question here, Number one. Does 128 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: it surprise you that he would make a statement like that, 129 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 3: calling his whole team soft so publicly, And does it 130 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 3: also surprise you that he has created a culture where 131 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 3: guys respond to that and went on to beat the 132 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 3: Jets the next week. 133 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: No, and no, I will be honest. 134 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 5: The win at the end may have been a little 135 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 5: bit surprising, but the accountability side of things, No, he's 136 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 5: uber honest. And I do think that's this military upbringing. 137 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 5: His mom and dad just never held you know back 138 00:06:58,200 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 5: with them. 139 00:06:59,000 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: Uh. 140 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 5: He was the same way with his brothers and siblings also, 141 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 5: and he was the same way with us. If we 142 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 5: weren't on our stuff, he would call it out and 143 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 5: we all did that too. That's, you know, the basis 144 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 5: of a good friendship is Hey, I'm a ride with you, 145 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 5: but I'm also be very honest with you. 146 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: He's still that way to this day. 147 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 5: We have a group chat now the class of two 148 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 5: thousand and four, most of our recruiting classes in there 149 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 5: and hearing I mean, the way he speaks in there. 150 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 5: Still he's very calculated and what he's saying does not 151 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 5: say so the accountability aspect of being a professional is 152 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 5: what he's. 153 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: Going to do. 154 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 5: I will say, it's kind of bold to call guys 155 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 5: you're not far removed from soft, but to get that response, 156 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 5: it's probably what that team needed. And he knows this. 157 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: I know for sure. If you're gonna do that, you 158 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 2: better be right in being. 159 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 5: Able to call guys out like that, because I'm a 160 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 5: grown man just the same way as you are. 161 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: And I know Mayo gets that. 162 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 3: As a player, if you were a former player in 163 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 3: the National Football League, how do you respond to that 164 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 3: when your head coach says something like that. 165 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 5: You could take it personal, you can understanook yourself in 166 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 5: the mirror. One or the other has to happen. But 167 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 5: here's what I do think about Gerd and his ability 168 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 5: to be the Patriots head coach for some years, I 169 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 5: would say this, I think he understands where his roster is. 170 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 5: We're having that conversation here are we not understand I 171 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 5: know this. He has a really good relationship with Robert Kraft, 172 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 5: so he'll have the back end. I think he may 173 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 5: get the time also, so to be able to say that. 174 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 5: As a player, it's about being able to tell troops. 175 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 2: Right. 176 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 5: We always tell guys just be honest with me. The 177 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 5: best thing a coach can do with you is telling 178 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 5: your soft or and you might not like it, and 179 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 5: then you can follow up, well, tell me how, tell 180 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 5: me why I can be better. Those are the ones 181 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 5: that you want on your teams that don't take offense 182 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 5: to what this tape is showing us. And if I'm 183 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 5: not mistaken, I think McCardy Devin mccordy right, gaven a 184 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 5: definition of what he said they mean by Patriot soft. 185 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 5: I think it was not stopping the run, not being 186 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 5: able to run the ball, and it was another category 187 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 5: that he said, and those things weren't showing up on tape. 188 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 5: So if that's their standard of what Patriot soft is 189 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 5: he has every right to do it, and those dudes 190 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 5: responded accordingly by doing the opposite of what Mayo said 191 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 5: they were. 192 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: That was my second topic too, if you'd let me 193 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: do my five, let me just throw out one more 194 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: part of that though. How would Gerard Mayo respond to 195 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick criticizing him for calling the Patriots soft? 196 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,599 Speaker 5: He would probably tell Bill, you run your team the 197 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 5: way you run yours, and I run mine like I 198 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 5: run mine. 199 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:31,839 Speaker 2: So I got another funny story. 200 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 5: So I was talking to a guy when I went 201 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 5: up and played them, and Gerd was still on the roster, correct, 202 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 5: And well you don't know that Gerd was still on 203 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 5: the roster, but he wasn't playing number ten overall pick. 204 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 2: They had a little bit of a youth movement. 205 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 5: And I asked one of the dudes and that we're 206 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 5: joking in between because it's a brotherhood in between commercial breaks. 207 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: It's like, where are my dog Mayo at? You know what? 208 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 5: The dude said, Man, he's oldest crap, he ain't playing 209 00:09:54,120 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 5: right now. And I was just like, huh, they got transparency. 210 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 5: His standard wasn't what they wanted to be at the time, 211 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 5: I guess. And they had young linebackers that were playing 212 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 5: in his position. So Bill Belichick saying that I'm sure 213 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 5: he'd be as honest to Gerrod or to that team 214 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 5: as Rodd is too. It's just that Bill has his 215 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 5: method of communicating in the public to where you get 216 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 5: five answers to a question, and I mean five words 217 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 5: to an answer, and that's. 218 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: It all right. 219 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 3: Topic number three, we are moving right along. Two first 220 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 3: year head coaches will be facing each other at the 221 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 3: halfway point of the season. Brian Callahan dry mail. Is 222 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 3: that still in week eight a compelling storyline the first 223 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 3: year coach thing? Or is it kind of irrelevant at 224 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 3: this point in the season. 225 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 5: All this is competition, It's very much relevant. That's the 226 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 5: same way we were talking about Caleb Williams and Jaydon Daniels. 227 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: Right like rookie quarterback versus rookie. 228 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 5: We saw Peyton and Philip and Tom and Eli and 229 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 5: being play those matchups and it meant something. I do 230 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 5: think coaches do the same things. I do think front 231 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 5: offices make changes and feel a certain type of way 232 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 5: about we gotta go get this type of win. Because 233 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 5: they won't talk about in public, because they're not interviewed 234 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 5: like that but I do think there is an importance 235 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 5: to winning versus the number one, who's essentially your class 236 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 5: is basically class of twenty twenty four coaches. 237 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 3: Hey Titans fans with a Kroger Boost membership, you'll score 238 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 3: big with double fuel, points, free delivery, and lots more. 239 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 3: Go to Kroger dot com slash boost for details.

One tape 252 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 5: knowing what you're gonna get, expectation of how you're gonna 253 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 5: get rush's or how teams run block you or run 254 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 5: stop you. 255 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 2: That's important too. 256 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 5: And then the other part of it is good feat 257 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 5: That's something I always had to work with is making 258 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 5: sure I was in good positioning in the run game 259 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 5: and in the pass game, specifically on the passing game. 260 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 5: Is setting yourself up for success. Do not let a 261 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 5: defensive line and dictate what you're gonna do. 262 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: You may get. 263 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 5: Caught in a bad spot, but you always take back 264 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 5: control as it contains, as it pertains that you doing 265 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 5: your job. But again we're speaking about an offensive line 266 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 5: that is young, growing up and adjusting to all things 267 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 5: they've never seen before. Peter Skearonsky, I think is still 268 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 5: at a part at a spot in his career where 269 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 5: he's still figuring out guard and I see that from 270 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 5: time to time, and if you were to ask him, 271 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 5: I'm sure he'd be honest and say, yeah, I'm still 272 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 5: figuring this out. But I always tell people so about 273 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 5: three years before you start seeing that payoff. The same 274 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 5: thing goes for JC. But I'll tell you this, some 275 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 5: holding calls may be warranted because I'd much rather hold 276 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 5: you than allow you to tear my quarterback's face off. 277 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 5: This is all a part make of doing business. What 278 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 5: I would tell you in response to that is find 279 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 5: a way to negate that, and that's the next play, 280 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 5: making sure that your quarterback does have time. But a 281 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 5: lot of these things that we're speaking of is is 282 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 5: time in the league. Just being completely honest with you, 283 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 5: because if I lose and I know how not to 284 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 5: lose again, right and if I saw this guy, I 285 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 5: should know next week with the film study, then I'm 286 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 5: probably gonna get the same sim or move that that 287 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 5: guy did to beat me. So it sucks going through 288 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 5: growing pains, and I went through on myself. I actually 289 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 5: thought I was gonna get cut my second year in 290 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 5: the NFL because I had a guy run through me, 291 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 5: which I didn't know how to hold my base at 292 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 5: the time, sacked the quarterback and pushed his fist through 293 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 5: his helmet, broke his nose, and I just thought undrafted. 294 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: Second year. I told him I'm probably cut. I'm probably gone. 295 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 5: But grace and understanding development is a part of this, 296 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 5: and from that moment forward, I made sure I knew 297 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 5: everything and to understand what to fight and finish and 298 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 5: grind and strained to close out your blocks. It is 299 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 5: a maturity thing. So I am not mad at you know, 300 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 5: holding penalties. It's a matter of do you let it 301 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 5: carry over and can you stop it? 302 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 3: I asked that question, and Jessin, I appreciate that you 303 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 3: gave such a good answer because what no, because what. 304 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 4: That says happened to me. Well, I asked it in 305 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 4: a very joking way. 306 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 3: But what I appreciate about that answer is that but 307 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: it says to me that there are still a lot 308 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: of coachable moments here. We haven't reached the halfway point 309 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 3: of the season, and it's like, well, we don't know 310 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 3: what to do with this team. Well we can't fix 311 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 3: these problems. Well there's nothing that can be done. We 312 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 3: don't know what to do. There's a lot of learning 313 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: left to do on this Titans team. And I appreciate 314 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 3: so much saying, hey, that's film study. It is Hey, 315 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 3: that's learning how to play your position at a higher level. 316 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 3: That's learning how to do this and how to be 317 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 3: a pro. And so much of that is a byproduct 318 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 3: not of having a bad team, not of having the 319 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 3: wrong guys on your offensive line, not of having the 320 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 3: wrong guys in whatever position they're supposed to be. It's 321 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 3: a byproduct of having a young team that still needs 322 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 3: to learn. 323 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 5: And you know what's even cooler behind the broken those 324 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 5: stories to your point, having a young team like I 325 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 5: must say, I had a veteran team that I was around, 326 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 5: and I had a guy that played a few years 327 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 5: in the league at the time too on that broken 328 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 5: nose situation. Never mentioned it, The quarterback never mentioned it. 329 00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 5: It never got brought up. And you know what the 330 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 5: did for me, and I'm fighting harder for them. You know, 331 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 5: I want to sell out even more because if he 332 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 5: cannot mention that or I not be cut, You've gained 333 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 5: me even more. And that's what this group is getting now. 334 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 5: Is it may be bad or it's not as good 335 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 5: as you want it to be, but being in those 336 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 5: trenches with those dudes that have to be here because 337 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 5: they're under contract, right this is where that growth comes 338 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 5: into play the world. We may see them in year six, seven, eight, 339 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 5: because I think they're right behind each other and say 340 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 5: we've dealt with this. This is where those combat plays 341 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 5: where you're down six and you need seven to score. 342 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 5: This is where that stock is gained right now. But 343 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 5: it absolutely not can acknowledge it sucks going through the 344 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 5: process of growing paints because there's nothing you can explain 345 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 5: other than we're getting better. 346 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: Topic five. 347 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 3: That was a great answer, A good answer, all right. 348 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 3: Topic number five? Is there one thing that could happen 349 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 3: caveat other than a win? We know that wins are 350 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 3: the old goal and the number one thing that can 351 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 3: fix a lot of problems. Is there something that could 352 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 3: happen on the field other than a wind? Maybe it's 353 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 3: a play, Maybe it's some sort of a trend that 354 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 3: starts to devolve. Maybe it's some sort of a moment. 355 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 3: Is there something that could get this team back on 356 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: track and heading in the right direction. 357 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 5: It's gonna sound cheesy, but this is just as simple 358 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 5: as a get because I'm going around and give you 359 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 5: the answer. 360 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 2: I promise I'm making you the answer. We're all still kids. 361 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 5: And when we're walking, when we put on that those 362 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 5: shoulder paths, those pants, Coach Manchak used to call them 363 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 5: putting on your silks. 364 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 2: The jerseys. 365 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 5: Right, we're still kids and we play a game as 366 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 5: adults that has a business behind it. What good needs 367 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 5: to happen is positivity, just being honest with you, And 368 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 5: that's so cheesy. No fan wants to hear that while 369 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,439 Speaker 5: you're losing, no player really wants to. But it's the 370 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 5: truth because as much as we talked about how youthful 371 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 5: this group is, you ask what good needs to happen. 372 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 5: A clean game where you run the ball how you 373 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 5: want to, where you can score in the tight red 374 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 5: zone when you want to, when the defense gets a 375 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 5: turnover and the offense immediately sets you up, and it's 376 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 5: sets the offense up for a score, Having clean special 377 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 5: teams where you lock everybody down, no big splash plays 378 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 5: like it's the process of procedure of the game. And 379 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 5: that's what this team hasn't had this year because Miami, 380 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 5: they won, but it felt like it was choppy, like 381 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 5: only one person was rowing the boat on one side. 382 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 5: And what we finally made it the shore right understanding 383 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 5: when you asked me that question, the method of how 384 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 5: we pieced together a win, and I don't think we've 385 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 5: seen them piece together a win the way a football 386 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 5: team wants to. 387 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: Right. 388 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 2: A dub is a dub is a dub is a dub. 389 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 5: Sure, right, But knowing that I dominated you in a 390 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 5: run game, I might have given up a sack today, 391 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 5: but my quarterback was two and eighty five yards to touchdown. 392 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,959 Speaker 5: The defense held them to ten points. Special teams made 393 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 5: fifty yarder and kept it cleaning every other face with 394 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 5: no penalties. They've yet to have that moment. So it's 395 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 5: funny saying positivity and good plays, but that's truly what's 396 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 5: gonna because, as his young group knows right now, struggle. 397 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 2: Best way to get out of that is a put 398 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 2: it all together. 399 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: See the point of this too, which is really interesting. 400 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: And I know we're now four days away from the 401 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: game in Detroit, but I would have loved to have 402 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: seen the Titans kick off to Detroit at fourteen fourteen 403 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: the ball go through the end zone for a touchback 404 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: instead of being run back seventy two yards. And I 405 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: would have loved to have seen them play that game 406 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: fourteen fourteen Detroit at their own thirty yard line because 407 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: at that point in the game, you've sacked their quarterback 408 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: three times. He's hurting because you've you've worked on him 409 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: quite a bit, You've moved the ball, you've got some confidence, 410 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: you've driven for two touchdowns. Now it's a ball game. 411 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: Let's play the ball game now. Pretty good chance you 412 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: lose because Detroit's better than you are there at home. 413 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 1: Who knows, but at least you could have seen that. 414 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: Instead you saw kickoff return, interception and return punt return. 415 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: This you never got a chance to actually play the 416 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: game because even after some mistakes early on a bad 417 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 1: interception and a seventy yard run, you had gotten it 418 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: back to even. And if this team cannot play themselves 419 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 1: out of a game with some sort of massive mistake, 420 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: it would be interesting to see where they could flow, 421 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,719 Speaker 1: because there are signs in different areas at times that 422 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: they can make a bit of a move. This game 423 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: this week, I think, is the chance for that posse 424 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 1: jctivity that you speak of. 425 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 2: It isn't. 426 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 5: And going to the Detroit game and lessons were being 427 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 5: given by Detroit that's gonna benefit them later too, because 428 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 5: you know what happened. 429 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:11,959 Speaker 2: You brought up a banged up Jared Goff. 430 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 5: I do think that Dan Campbell kept him in and 431 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 5: the game that they knew they were gonna win at 432 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 5: that point to show his team this is how we 433 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 5: fight to a finish. 434 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 2: Lessons. 435 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 5: You know, there'll be a cold game or they might 436 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 5: have to go on the road and play against the team, 437 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 5: and Jared Goff just got to suck it up and 438 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 5: fight and continue to play for his teammates. But Mike, 439 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 5: you bring up those bad points of the game that 440 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 5: happened for the Titans, fourteen fourteen coming out of the halftime, 441 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 5: it was fourteen to fourteen. 442 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, after the touchdown drive. I mean that's yeah early 443 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 1: in the early in the game. 444 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, early in again, not at halftime. But you 445 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 5: know what what that play did though, to the guys 446 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 5: on the sideline, specifically offense, is that special teams play 447 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 5: that was giving up essentially reset them towards like, well, 448 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 5: we've done everything we're supposed to, right, there's no answers. 449 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 5: And then what most folks don't understand, and at that moment, 450 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 5: that young inexperienced group offensive league or let's say new 451 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 5: group put together because there's some elder guys on there, 452 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 5: right that's been around the league, but it puts them 453 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 5: up against the wall because now we gotta pass, and 454 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 5: we have to pass, and the hardest thing to do 455 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 5: in the NFL is consistently throw the ball around for 456 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 5: a group, specifically the old line who didn't give up 457 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 5: many sacks after that. I don't think any sacks after that, 458 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 5: But how many times, can we drop back and hope 459 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 5: that we make a splash play and we don't because 460 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 5: all they have to do is send four and drop seven. 461 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 2: That's a hard life to live, tough. 462 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: Hey, Titans fans.

Mike Keith hit it. 479 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: Key Number one is keep feeding Calvin Ridley. Ridley's twenty 480 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: twenty four season was jump started with a ten catch 481 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty three yard performance last Sunday. The 482 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 1: Titans got involved early and often, and he made some 483 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: big plays, including a forty seven yarder. Calvin Ridley is 484 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: the Titans' most dynamic offensive performer. If the offense is 485 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: to continue to grow, you have to feed him. Key 486 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 1: number two. Keep up the heat. The Titans have gotten 487 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: three sacks in the last two weeks from arden Key 488 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: and in limited passing downs for the Lions last Sunday, 489 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: Tennessee recorded four sacks. As a team. The pass rushers, 490 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: one on ones the blitzes contributed to the pressure. More 491 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: of this, please, No matter who the quarterback is for 492 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: New England, they need to feel this sort of heat 493 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: from the Titans. Key number three.
