Welcome inside with the Insider 15 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: alongside Judy Batista and Ian Rappaport. 16 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: I am Tom Pelicero. 17 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: One day away, twenty five hours away.

Brian Baldinger is going to join us 23 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: in just a little bit to talk about those. We 24 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: start tonight with a guy who we'll see when or 25 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: if he's back on the field in a Bengals uniformed 26 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: again for today. Trey Hendrickson was walking across the street 27 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: like he's about to sell you with discount appliance not 28 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: dressed for practice, dressed for business to sixteen million. 29 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: Dollars in the last year of his contract. 30 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: There have been ongoing discussions with the Bengals, and fair 31 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: to say, Trey Henderson not happy with the latest communication 32 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: between himself and coach Zach Taylor. 33 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 3: A little bit transpired between me and Zach. We've tried 34 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: to keep it less at least amount personal as possible, 35 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 3: but at some point in this process it becomes personal. 36 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 4: You know. Being sent. 37 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 3: Thirty days before mandatory camp or however to any days 38 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 3: it is that if I don't show up, I will 39 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: be fined alludes to the fact that something won't get 40 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 3: done in that timeframe, like the meetings that we've had 41 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 3: prior to right, I have a tremendous amount of respect 42 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: for the ability to be in meetings with them behind 43 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 3: closed doors, and what was conveyed of the vision of 44 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 3: what I would be in this organization would be if 45 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 3: I continue to play at the level I am, that 46 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,119 Speaker 3: the door would be open to continue long term discussions 47 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 3: about contracts. 48 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 4: We're just not seeing eye to eye on the structure. 49 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: It seems that a shorter deal is something that they 50 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: are pushing pretty hard. 51 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 4: Then next year we're just kicking the can down the road. 52 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 3: To say I'm going to sit out or to say 53 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 3: I'm not going to what I can say is I'm 54 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: very disappointed with the communication that's been had. 55 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: This has been the off season of pass rushers getting paid. 56 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: Miles Garrett of course ending his own contract squabble with 57 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: the Browns getting a forty million dollars per year average. 58 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: Danil Hunter got paid again, Max Crosby got paid again. 59 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: Nick Bosea got paid a couple of years ago. Still 60 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: one of the tops at thirty four million dollars per year. 61 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: And while there are a lot of layers to this ian, 62 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,119 Speaker 1: I think it's safe to say this much Trey Anderson 63 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: is not asking to reset the market. He does want 64 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: to be paid in line with top players at his position. 65 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: The Bengals don't seem like they are anywhere close to 66 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: doing that, all of which makes the next couple of 67 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: months really interesting navigation for all sides involved. 68 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 5: Right, and what you mentioned is true from my I understanding, 69 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 5: Trean Henderson is not trying to top Miles Garrett at 70 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 5: forty million dollars per year. I don't even know if 71 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 5: he's trying to beat Max Crosby at thirty five plus. 72 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 5: It does seem like he wants to be at at 73 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 5: least in that conversation with Danil Hunter and Max Crosby, 74 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 5: might have come down a little under those guys maybe. 75 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 5: And look, these third contracts with star players are always tricky, 76 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 5: which is why you see some really good teams saying, 77 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 5: you know what, we are not going to entertain a 78 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 5: third contract for a great player. We're either gonna trade him, 79 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 5: we're gonna let him hit free agency, we're gonna move on. 80 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 5: Because sometimes these are when the value isn't great. The 81 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 5: real problem comes when you are a guy like Trey 82 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 5: Hendrickson and you are great, and you are still as 83 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 5: great as you've always been, or maybe even somehow better 84 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 5: it seems like he is just now entering his pride 85 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 5: despite being thirty or so or whatever he is, which 86 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 5: is why the Bengals are in this situation. They have 87 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 5: kicked around a potential one year deal. They have focused 88 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 5: on a shorter deal, but I think it's pretty clear 89 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 5: guys that Trey Henderson is not going to deal with 90 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 5: a shorter deal. Want some security past this season. My understanding, 91 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 5: the least the Bengals are willing to give him some 92 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 5: security past this season. There just hasn't been any urgenc 93 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 5: to do it because there's no deadline and there's no 94 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 5: mandatory anything at least for another month. This is why 95 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 5: he's coming out and doing this right now. He wants 96 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 5: to be clear he wants to get paid now. 97 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 6: I thought he also made it clear that he wants 98 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 6: to be with the Cincinnati Bengals. And if you're the 99 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 6: Cincinnati Bengals, you should have urgency. You should want to 100 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 6: get this wrapped up, and you should want to get 101 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 6: it wrapped up sooner rather than later. A few reasons why. 102 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 6: First of all, we have seen over the past few 103 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 6: years that the Bengals have let contract issues seep late 104 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 6: into the summer into training camp. Last year, jimor Chase 105 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 6: wasn't on the practice field until only a few days 106 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 6: before the season opener, and it affected the offensive rhythm 107 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 6: in those first few weeks. They lost to the New 108 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 6: England Patriots, an inferior team last season. This is a 109 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 6: team that has Super Bowl aspirations, and they have behaved 110 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 6: at the rest of this offseason like a team that 111 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 6: believes it is a legitimate Super Bowl contender with their moves, 112 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 6: especially on the offense side of the ball. Well, you're 113 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 6: not a Super Bowl contender if you let him go. 114 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 6: He is the best part of your defense. Your defense 115 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 6: was not good last year. It was immeasurably worse when 116 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 6: Trey Hendrickson was not on the field. If you have 117 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 6: any thought that you can win the Super Bowl, you've 118 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 6: got to get him on the field, and you've got 119 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,279 Speaker 6: to get this done soon. I go all the way 120 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 6: back to a conversation with Zach Taylor at the combine 121 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 6: where he told me that they were going to spend 122 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 6: the off season looking at all the possible reasons why 123 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 6: this team has been getting off to slow starts the 124 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 6: last few seasons and then try. 125 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: To address them. 126 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 6: Well, this is a contributing factor that they have had 127 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 6: contract issues distractions hanging over them the last few seasons. 128 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 2: It has contributed. 129 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 6: It's not the only reason, but it has contributed to 130 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 6: slow starts that have foiled their seasons. If you are 131 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 6: legitimate about making a run at a super Bowl, you 132 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 6: need Trey Hendrickson on the field and you need to 133 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 6: get it done. 134 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: Now. 135 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 6: You had a chance to trade him for draft picks. 136 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 6: You pass that out opportunity up now it is incumbent 137 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 6: on the franchise to get him in the fold. 138 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: It's a great point, Judy, because the Bengals were open 139 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: to trading Trey Hendrickson, who let's remember, has requested a 140 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: trade each of the past two offseason, had the opportunity 141 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: this time around to actually talk with the teams and 142 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: figure out what would I get paid someplace else. The Bengals, 143 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: from my understanding, took a hard line of we need 144 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: a first round pick if we are going to trade 145 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: Trey Henderson. The best offer they had was a second 146 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: round pick and an additional pick. They said no. It's 147 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: never say never in terms of a trade possibility here, 148 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: but teams have spent their money elsewhere. The draft is 149 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: coming gone and there's nobody out there who's going to 150 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: help you the way that Trey Hendrickson could. In twenty 151 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: twenty five, the Bengals have been active locking up some 152 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: of their other players, including Jamar Chase and t Higgins 153 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: on their extensions earlier on this offseason. Joe Burrow, of course, 154 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: one of the highest paid quarterbacks in the NFL, Trey 155 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: Hendrickson making twenty one million dollars per year on paper, 156 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: though he has done sixteen million dollars in twenty twenty five. 157 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: As we now bring in Steve Weitch to the conversation, Steve, 158 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: I get the sense too in listening to Trey Hendrickson 159 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: talk to there some frustration because the Bengals have bent 160 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: some of their rules in terms of how they structured 161 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: the Joe Burrow contract. They've probably been some rules in 162 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: terms how they structured the Jamar Chase contract. You're the 163 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: LEAs leading sack guy. You're wondering why won't they do 164 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: the same thing for me? But as you know, well, 165 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: this is not the first Bengals contract squabble that has 166 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: extended and gotten a little bit weird. 167 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 7: No, first off, it just seems so peculiar to have 168 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 7: a player while the team is practicing, sit there and 169 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 7: have this type of honest scud missile back and forth 170 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 7: conversation about the dirty laundry was going on with his 171 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 7: contract discussion. He spoke for twenty two minutes that was 172 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 7: absolutely stunning, and he said, this is personal. Some of 173 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 7: these are my feelings have been provoked. This is gonna 174 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 7: be this is gonna be very interesting. 175 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 4: Tom. 176 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 7: I want to go back to twenty eleven, the Carson Palmer, 177 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 7: the quarterback situation. 178 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: He wanted to get traded. 179 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 8: He won out. 180 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 7: The Browns are owner Mike Brown and executive president Mike 181 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 7: Brown's daughter Katie Blackburn, was like, no, we're not trading you. 182 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 2: We're not giving you a new deal. 183 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 4: You signed a deal. 184 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 2: It's here. 185 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 7: He's like, I'm going to stay home and sit on 186 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 7: the couch. They eventually traded him midway through the season 187 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 7: for that first round pick. You said, the Bengals are 188 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 7: now asking for Trey Hendrickson for so that's why they 189 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 7: have president a president right now for this type of negotiation. 190 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 7: This is the wrong team. They will hold out for 191 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 7: as long as they want. If Trey Henderson doesn't want. 192 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 2: To budge, they won't Budge. 193 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 7: That's why this is going to be a very intriguing 194 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 7: stare down Tom Again. Most other teams they say, Okay, 195 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 7: we're gonna get rid of him, We're gonna figure this out. 196 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 7: The Bengals may say, you know what, you had seventeen 197 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 7: and a half sacks last year, we didn't go to 198 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 7: the playoffs. If that's our attitude, they should trade him. 199 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 7: The same time, again, this is an awkward situation. Going 200 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 7: back to the optics that we saw today, this is 201 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 7: going to be a long, ugly situation. 202 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,719 Speaker 1: Any player's greatest leverage is withholding their services. This is 203 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: the first time Trey Hendrickson has explicitly said I'm not 204 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: playing for sixteen million dollars. 205 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 2: There's this season. 206 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: The Bengals can come back, and their leverage is to say, okay, well, 207 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: then we're going to find you millions of dollars. If 208 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: you start missing training camp and then you're giving up 209 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: about a half million dollars on each game. Check long 210 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: way to go until then. They're not playing football games 211 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: in May, although we are finding out when some of 212 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: those games and where they're going to be played come 213 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: this fall.

I'm gonna start with that game 244 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 9: in Madrid, the first game ever played in Spain, all 245 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 9: right in Madrid, and the latest I can ever remember 246 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 9: an international game being played between Washington and Miami. I 247 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 9: think it's going to be a fantastic scene. That stadium 248 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 9: is awesome, in. 249 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 4: State of the art. 250 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 8: This is not real in Madrid, this is. 251 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 9: Not football, this is American football in Spain. 252 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 8: I think it's going to get it be very very 253 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 8: well received. 254 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 9: My second game is the Rams going to play the 255 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 9: Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium in London. I'm proud to 256 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 9: say that I was part of the first international game 257 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 9: ever played outside of the United States borders at Wembley 258 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 9: in nineteen eighty six. 259 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 8: Cowboys and Bears. And here we are, we get Travis 260 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 8: Hunter already making some noise in mini camp there with 261 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 8: the Jags. 262 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 9: He's going to be on an international stage, and I 263 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 9: get the feeling that people watching this game at Wembley, 264 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 9: who are very, very knowledgeable about the NFL can't wait 265 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 9: to see him play both ways. I think it's going 266 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 9: to be fascinating for those people London who are very 267 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 9: educating about this game. And then my favorite game of 268 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 9: the seven games late this year takes place in Dublin, 269 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 9: the first game ever played in Ireland, and Steelers will 270 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 9: be playing the Vikings, and presumably, presumably Tom Aaron Rodgers 271 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 9: will be the quarterback of that Steelers team trying to 272 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 9: beat the Vikings in foreign soil. Last year he had 273 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 9: an opportunity to beat the Vikings as a member of 274 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 9: the Jets. He couldn't do it, couldn't make a throw 275 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 9: at the end of the game to Garrett Wilton that 276 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 9: could have gotten the win. And so now he gets 277 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 9: another chance to go over to Dublin here as the 278 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 9: Steelers quarterback. 279 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 8: We believe, we believe Tom you might have. 280 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 9: More insight today than I do, but we believe that 281 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 9: Aaron Rodgers will be the quarterback of that Steelers team 282 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 9: trying to beat the Vikings in that very talented and 283 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 9: difficult Brian Flores defense of the Vikings. 284 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 8: In order to So that's my. 285 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 9: My favorite contest right now of the slate of games 286 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 9: out there. 287 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 1: You knew the Roonies we're gonna get that first game 288 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: in Dublin, but you didn't know what they were gonna 289 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: go up against, the team with a quarterback named McCarthy 290 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: and a coach named O'Connell, not to mention the fighting 291 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: Irish legend and Harrison Smith as well.

And then you kind of 335 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 12: compound the questions and the decision with the fact that 336 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 12: his shoulder wasn't what it was before, and when he 337 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 12: tried to ramp up throwing again this year, it just 338 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 12: didn't feel right. It never felt comfortable, and he knows, 339 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 12: you know how hard it is to go through an 340 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 12: NFL season, you know, fully healthy as opposed to kind 341 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 12: of trying to struggle your way into getting ready to 342 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 12: play Week one. 343 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 13: So you know, with that being the case and all 344 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 13: those factors weighed in it was time. 345 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 4: And he is. 346 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 12: He's very content with where he is. You know, this 347 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 12: is like just just me personally. I mean, he walked 348 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 12: away from a lot of money. I mean, this is 349 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 12: I look at it from a player's perspective. You could 350 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 12: have easily said, I'll have the surgery, let me just 351 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 12: get through the season, just cut me a check. I mean, 352 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 12: let's just be honest, like that's that's a very real scenario, 353 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 12: and that was never it for him. 354 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 13: That was what was so shocking for me. 355 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 12: Is like just and not really shocking because I know 356 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 12: the kid, but just watching him kind of go through 357 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 12: you know, everyday life and and as a quarterback, you know, 358 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 12: for him to make those decisions about you know, number one, 359 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 12: it was I want to make I want to just 360 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 12: right for the Saints. I want to make sure that 361 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 12: they're set up in a way where they can kind 362 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 12: of recover from this. I know it's late, I know 363 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 12: this is an ideal, but I want them to be 364 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 12: able to recover and have something going forward. And him 365 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 12: and Mickey worked very well together, and Derek finally came 366 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 12: to the decision where he didn't want to have surgery. 367 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 12: He wan't have to do with that rehab, he didn't 368 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 12: know if he'd be ready to come back then to 369 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 12: be able to help the team, and he made the 370 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 12: decision to walk away. 371 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 13: And he's very happy, and he's been happy. On the 372 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 13: golf course, he's I'm. 373 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 12: I'm a little bit torn because now I used to 374 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 12: beat up with my son and I'd be able to 375 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 12: kind of take most people. But now he's showed up 376 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 12: and it's depressing because he's really good at golf, and 377 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 12: I'm gonna have to step my game upright. 378 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 6: His health wasn't where it needs to be. The Saints 379 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 6: had drafted a quarterback, so it was time to close 380 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 6: that chapter. But he's only thirty four years old, so 381 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 6: it doesn't necessarily have to be the end. Are you 382 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 6: convinced that he is going to remain retired or can 383 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 6: you envision a scenario where he might wake up one 384 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 6: morning and say, you know what, let me have the surgery, 385 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 6: let me get rehabbing, let me go back to football. 386 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's a great question, and it's a couple people 387 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 12: have asked us that, and I asked me personally, I 388 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 12: believe that I believe that he has done I know 389 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 12: that Derek loves the game. 390 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 13: But here's here's what I'll tell you. I think more than. 391 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 12: Anything, he loved the teammates. He loved the being around, 392 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 12: the personalities. That was the one thing like Judy over 393 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 12: the last couple of days of playing golf with him, 394 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 12: is you know for me, you know, when you retire, 395 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 12: you kind of go away and the NFL kind of 396 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 12: forgets about you. You know, that's just that's what happens 397 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,880 Speaker 12: with most guys. I cannot tell you how many phone 398 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 12: calls that he got on the golf course. I mean 399 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 12: it was every other shot his phone was ringing from 400 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 12: either an ex head coach, someone he played against. I mean, 401 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 12: just NonStop outpouring. He just put him on speaker and 402 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 12: you'd have chats with him, and it was incredible to 403 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 12: see the impact that he's had on his teammates. 404 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 13: And it wasn't just a football thing, because you. 405 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 12: Know, you win games, you lose games, But in reality, 406 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 12: it's the impact that you make on the guys around you. 407 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 12: And I I was I was kind of shocked by, honestly, 408 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 12: the amount of people they called, just loving the fact 409 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 12: that they got a. 410 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 13: Chance to play with him and got to know him, 411 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 13: and that meant for me more than anything. 412 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 12: And I can tell just in the last couple of 413 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 12: days that he's he's definitely done playing and he's moved 414 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 12: on because, like I said, his family, his boys and 415 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 12: his little girl are getting older and they're getting to 416 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 12: the point where they want to have Dad around more. 417 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 12: And that that means more to him than anything else. 418 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 5: God, that is so amazing to hear. Uh, not as 419 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 5: surprise how loved Derek is, but obviously on the golf 420 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 5: course that's actually pretty anny because you don't want that 421 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:48,959 Speaker 5: many phone calls. 422 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 13: You want to be able you're not supposed to do 423 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 13: on the golf course. And that's why I tried to tell. 424 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 2: Him, yes, this is why. 425 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 5: Yes, No, I mean, look now that he's retireding and 426 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 5: start actually learning the rules of golf instead of just 427 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 5: treating it as a hobby. 428 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 2: I want hl month thing. 429 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 5: Though, you have had a front row seat to a really, 430 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 5: really really stowar career. As you look back on it 431 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 5: as someone who cares as much about Derek as you do, 432 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 5: what was your favorite part of it for your brother? 433 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 12: I think going through the adversity, because I think that 434 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 12: that was the hardest parts for me as a quarterback. 435 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 13: It wasn't just playing, because you know, I. 436 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 12: Landed with the Giants, and I would tell people all 437 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 12: the time jokingly, I was obviously the first tim of 438 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 12: the Texans. It didn't go as well when I got 439 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 12: with the Giants. I would jokingly tell people football is 440 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 12: easy when you have a great team around you. 441 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 13: Football's easy. 442 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 12: But you know what's not easy is the adversity of 443 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 12: losing a coach or going through a transition of moving cities. 444 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 12: And just the way that he was able to handle that. 445 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 12: You know, a lot of times when he was with 446 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 12: the Raiders, he was the guy that was thrust out 447 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 12: to the podium to answer questions for the organization in 448 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 12: times of some turmoil, and I think that that for 449 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 12: me was the thing that resonated most. Those were my 450 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 12: favorite moments, is of brother being able to watch him 451 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 12: handle those situations, handle difficult situations inside the locker room 452 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 12: that many people will never even know about. But the 453 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 12: way that he was able to navigate that with grace, 454 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,479 Speaker 12: it was really impressive for me. And so I think 455 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 12: that's that's probably a lot of the reasons a lot 456 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 12: of the phone calls happened in the last couple of days, 457 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 12: but I've really been impressed by that. 458 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 8: The spiral. 459 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 13: I always knew he could do it. You know, it 460 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 13: was nine. 461 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 12: He was out there out throwing all this on the 462 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 12: field anyway, so I knew he could do that part 463 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 12: of it, But it's the way you navigated the other 464 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 12: stuff was really impressive. 465 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 6: Obviously you've been retired for a few years now. What 466 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 6: kind of advice have you given him? What have you 467 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 6: told him to do in retirement? 468 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 13: Well, just stay busy so he don't drive your wife crazy. 469 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 13: I think that's the biggest thing. 470 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 12: And for him it's not going to be hard because 471 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 12: he is not a guy that likes to sit around 472 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 12: and so Judy like he's he's been NonStop, like I 473 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 12: literally like this video we're showing that was like our 474 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 12: second or third day on the golf course, iner Row. 475 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 13: But he's not going to stop. 476 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 12: I mean, if there's an opportunity for him to play 477 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 12: in a golf tournament, play at the high highest level, 478 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 12: he's going to go try and do that. 479 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 13: So I know he's he's focused on a lot of 480 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 13: different things. 481 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 12: Family is definitely one of them, and right there, I 482 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 12: appreciate my son showing one of the best drives I 483 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 12: had all day.

Instant impact on offense. Plenty of additions for 675 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 5: the Houston Texans. And welcome back in our good friend 676 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 5: Steve eve weis with a killer jacket right back on 677 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 5: the insiders, Steve, Let's take a look at this Texans offense. 678 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 5: Obviously they have a new offensive coordinator, a lot of focus, 679 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 5: especially the end of last year, on the offensive line. 680 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 5: What should we expect from the Shuston offense in the 681 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 5: twenty twenty five season. 682 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 7: We're on the Mellon palette the way we're wardrobed out today, 683 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 7: both you and I, I know, yeah, but I'd love 684 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 7: that interview with Will Anderson. That defensive set they got 685 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 7: players at young secondary is excellent. The defensive front very good. 686 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 7: But offense, it all starts with the offensive line. We 687 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 7: know that they've got some repairing to do at wide 688 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 7: receiver with some of the injuries that they suffered there. 689 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 13: But last year we saw quarterback CJ. 690 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 4: Stroud. 691 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 2: He got sacked. 692 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 7: Fourteen more times than he did in his rookie season 693 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 7: twenty twenty three. But it wasn't just a pass protection that. 694 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 14: Was the issue. 695 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 7: They did not run the balls well consistently, and there 696 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 7: seemed to be some disjointed kind of coaching going home. 697 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 7: OC an offensive line, so they go out and they 698 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,479 Speaker 7: get them on like Cam Robinson left tackle that we're 699 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 7: seeing here was Minnesota previously with Jacksonville before that, they 700 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 7: drafted the player in the second round. They added a 701 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 7: lot of talent. But the fact that Nick Kayley the 702 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 7: new OC and Cole Popovich new offensive line coach, they 703 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 7: weren't together for five years in New England. They know 704 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 7: how each others thinks Papovitch got promoted. Kaylee comes over 705 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 7: from the Rams or he was a tight end coach, 706 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 7: so they know how each other worked. I think that's 707 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 7: very important. I think Damiko Ryans kind of recognized that 708 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 7: they had to have some type of cohesion between the coaches, 709 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 7: the OC and the O line coach to make things work. 710 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 7: If they can get the talent to Matt's maybe some 711 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 7: things that they can work with the coaching, this offense 712 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 7: could take right back off when they get some of 713 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,959 Speaker 7: those young wide receivers of Christian Kirk paired up there 714 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 7: with Nico Collins and John match. 715 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 716 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 5: Nick Kelly the new offensive coordinator, certainly not as well 717 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 5: known as Bobby Slovak was, but a really, really highly 718 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 5: regarded name of the NFL circle, someone who should jumpstart 719 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 5: that offense. Steve, thank you very much for hanging out 720 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 5: with us as always give. While the Baltimore Ravens had 721 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 5: some serious unfortunate news today, sources told me earlier in 722 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 5: the day that our Darius Washington, the really good up 723 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 5: and coming safety played a key role in the office 724 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 5: at the end of last year and was expected to 725 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 5: do so this year, has. 726 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 2: Torn his achilles. 727 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 5: This confirmed by the MRI. He is now out for 728 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 5: the least start of the twenty twenty five season, potentially 729 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 5: the entire Seaon. They did draft Malachi Starts in the 730 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 5: first round. That helps, but a big time blow for 731 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 5: the Baltimore Ravens. As for the New York Giants and 732 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 5: the Chicago Bears, both of them are undergoing rookie mini 733 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 5: camp right now. Plenty of news to discuss, plenty of 734 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 5: big time talents to talk about, including that guy Jackson 735 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 5: Dart has been in focus thus far in camp for 736 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 5: the Giants. That is going to continue. I'm going to 737 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 5: tell you a little more coming up. 738 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: The Giants traded back into the first round last month, 739 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: all the though up to number twenty five overall to 740 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: take that man, Jackson Dart out of Ole miss It. 741 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: This past weekend, the Giants got there first look at 742 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: him in a practice sitting or in rookie minnie camp, 743 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: and safe to say, Brian Dable likely see some fall. 744 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 8: He did what he was supposed to do. 745 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 4: He was prepared. 746 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 10: He he put a lot of time and effort into it, 747 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 10: and I got a lot of appreciation for how he's 748 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 10: gone about short amount of time his business. And that's 749 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 10: what's most important, is how he can get him to 750 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 10: a routine meeting with players extra having walked throughs at 751 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:34,719 Speaker 10: the hotel's communication he's that's that's part of playing quarterbacks, 752 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 10: being on top of all those little things. 753 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 4: It was really cool. 754 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 15: I mean I went to go tex him right after 755 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 15: the draft and there was text misses of him trying 756 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 15: to want of us texting throughout college and high school. 757 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 15: So I mean, I'm known for a good amount of 758 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 15: time through the through the football football scene.

Other teammates were saying the same things about 774 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 16: how much this guy had been working to get the 775 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 16: offense down early, getting in his playbook, being able to 776 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 16: communicate to other players. Theay Ball said, this is what 777 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 16: quarterbacks are supposed to be doing. You know what, receivers 778 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 16: coming up to you in practice and ask me what 779 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 16: to do, and you don't have an answer for them. 780 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 4: And so you're seeing him having. 781 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 16: These walk through at the hotel doing the things that 782 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 16: are important for this offense to prosper it. Look, he 783 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 16: knows that he's got a long way to go here, 784 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 16: but he's doing all the right things. And shout out 785 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 16: to our producer Matt Bubar who told me this is 786 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 16: Jackson Dark's birthday, so a good day for him, a 787 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 16: good week for him already. 788 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 6: Actually, the Giants posted a clip of him throwing darts. 789 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:00,759 Speaker 13: He's actually pretty good at that too. 790 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 6: Anyway. To me, the question that's going to hang over 791 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 6: the entire Giant season is when if Jackson Dart is 792 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 6: going to get on the field. 793 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 2: He does have a long way to go. 794 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 6: And they have been adam and that Russell Wilson is 795 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 6: going to be the starting quarterback. But we know how 796 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 6: things go once the season starts and the Giants believe 797 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 6: they are an improved team and Russell Wilson, with Russell 798 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 6: Wilson as the start of that, they ought to be 799 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 6: able to win some games. But if that doesn't come 800 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 6: together the way they think it's going to, when do 801 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 6: they want to get Jackson Dart on the field. How 802 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 6: soon will he be ready to get on the field. 803 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 6: To me, that is the lens that we're going to 804 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 6: watch this entire Giant season. 805 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: Through the Bears quarterback is going to be. Of course, 806 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: it is Caleb Williams and Chicago went out Jeffrey got 807 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: him a couple more weapons. What do you think of 808 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: the fit with Colston Loveland Luther Burden in Chicago. 809 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 4: Well, it's a perfect fit. 810 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 16: And their general manager Ryan Poles said, they went and 811 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 16: got these guys because they fit perfectly in what Ben 812 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 16: Johnson wants to do with his offense. You saw Colston 813 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 16: Loveland and college and great, a guy who can run 814 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 16: routes and make the catch, make catches, run after the 815 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 16: ball after making catches. He didn't he didn't work out 816 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 16: this weekend because he's still nursing a shoulder injury. But 817 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 16: he's going to be a big factor in this offense. 818 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 16: And then Luther Burden the third obviously was a guy 819 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 16: they thought highly of, a guy they thought could be 820 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 16: a first round pick. They were surprised he was still 821 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 16: there on the second day, playing in the slot, doing 822 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 16: a lot of the things that Aman Ross Saint Brown 823 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 16: did for the Lions. 824 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 13: In their office, you can really see. 825 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 16: Him prosper and Burton said, like he's not going to 826 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 16: forget coming in the second round. I think he said 827 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 16: that will last the rest of his careers. He had 828 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 16: a chip on his shoulder coming into this league. 829 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 5: I hope he does remember, and I hope he does 830 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 5: think about it, because there's actually a really strong lineage 831 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 5: of superstar NFL receivers who were drafted early in the 832 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 5: second round. I mean, from from Deebo, Samuel and A. J. 833 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 2: Brown. 834 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 5: I mean, there's there's plenty of them. I could go 835 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 5: on and on if I had a memory like that, 836 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 5: which I certainly don't. But if you're Luther Burden and 837 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 5: you really want to prove everyone wrong, guess what if 838 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 5: you do, you can do it in three years. You 839 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 5: don't have an extra year for being in the first round. 840 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 5: You get a new contract with a lot more money 841 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 5: a little bit earlier. So maybe he's a little bit mad, 842 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 5: but he's silver lining to being drafted early in the 843 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 5: second round as well. 844 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: A couple of big national TV games already unveiled on 845 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 1: the Bears twenty twenty five schedule, a good sign that 846 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: expectations might be just a little bit higher in Chicago. 847 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 1: But to get to the top of the North you 848 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: got to get through the Detroit Lions. So even after 849 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: a ton of attrition through the course of the off season, 850 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: still are the team to beat.

That's the biggest thing. But like I think 869 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 17: I said this before, as a staff offensive staff, we're 870 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 17: doing this together. 871 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 4: I mean, the only way you go to win the. 872 00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 17: Super Bowl is if everybody's on the same page and 873 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 17: everybody's doing it together. 874 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: It wasn't just Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn. 875 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: It was a lot of assistant coaches who ended up 876 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: departing and going elsewhere. Obviously, you had some coaches who 877 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: followed Ben Johnson to Chicago. Tanner Ingstrand also followed Aaron Glenn. 878 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,400 Speaker 1: Now the Jets offensive cordator Treill Williams was a key 879 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: assistant to Dan Campbell. 880 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 2: He is gone as well. 881 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: A lot of the same players back, but different guys 882 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,439 Speaker 1: calling the shots. Welcome back to the Insiders, Tom Pill 883 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: with Sarah, Steve Whites and Brian Baldi or Boldie. We 884 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: know talented the Lions are. We know they've been there 885 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:15,800 Speaker 1: at the end of the past couple of years. But 886 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: how hard is this to account for such a brain 887 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 1: drain when you're talking about the coaching staff. 888 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 8: Oh, it's real and it's hard. And as a guy 889 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 8: that played in some organizations where we lost good coaches. 890 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 9: I've always contend with this, Tom, that it is more 891 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 9: difficult to replace great coaches sometimes than great players. 892 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 8: And I would put Ben Johnson in Aaron Glenn and 893 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,879 Speaker 8: some of those assistants including Antoine ran Duel. I put 894 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 8: them in that category, and so Ben Johnson. 895 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 9: In the last three years, he's basically called every single 896 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 9: play from the Lions for the offense. 897 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 8: They were a number on offensive football last year. 898 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 9: We recognized that, We recognized the creativity and not just 899 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 9: the creativity, but how he inserted it in the play 900 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 9: calling at certain times of the game and kind of 901 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 9: caught your eye when you study the film in Aaron 902 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 9: Glenn similarly last year trying to replace you know, a 903 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 9: lot of injuries and doing a masterful job of doing it. 904 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 9: So I think that the Lions, well, it's not a 905 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 9: knock on Johnny Morton or Kelvin Sheppard or anybody who 906 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 9: has to step into those shoes. It's just difficult to 907 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 9: do that at a high level when you're used to 908 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 9: a certain way of a game being called, a preparation 909 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 9: being completed, and the way the week unfolds and the 910 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 9: communication necessary. 911 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 8: So it remains to be seen. 912 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 9: But you know, my history says that these are two 913 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 9: great coaches. They are going to be difficult to replace. 914 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 7: Baalty, I'm so glad we're on this because we hear 915 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 7: about culture all the time. You know and how Dan 916 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 7: Campbell and Brad Holmes have changed the culture and the building. 917 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 7: And I want to look at some clubs that lose 918 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 7: coaches all the time. The Philadelphia Eagles, right, the LA Rams, 919 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 7: the Patriots back when they were in their heyday, they 920 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 7: would lose coordinators and coaches year after year, but they 921 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 7: made maintained a leveless success because one, they had player accountability. 922 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 2: I mean, you had Tom Brady. 923 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 7: You know, you've got some great players who were there, 924 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 7: the Brandon Grahams and Lane Johnson's, the guys like that 925 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,479 Speaker 7: with the Eagles, Matthew Stafford picking up from Jared Goff 926 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 7: with the Rams. So do the Lions have that player accountability? 927 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 7: Do they have that one guy or those two guys 928 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 7: who can make sure anything new gets covered up right 929 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 7: if there's any mistakes going on. Secondly, ownership, right, ownership 930 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 7: plays a role if you have a top down leadership style, 931 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 7: that really helps. So Sheila Ford hamp this is her 932 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 7: first time going through this, but again, the leadership and 933 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 7: the culture they said they put in that building a 934 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 7: true test to see if it's legitimate, because, like you said, the. 935 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:39,479 Speaker 8: Talent is on this roster. 936 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,879 Speaker 2: Steve Baldi, thank you both very much. 937 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: A lot more to come from you guys here as 938 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: this off season rolls on the bill, celebrating the closing 939 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,840 Speaker 1: season as they're calling it, at hei Mark Stadium with 940 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: this a special jersey patch that they are going to 941 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: wear as they remember the past and embrace our future. 942 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 14: I e. 943 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: A very state of the art stadium that is going 944 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 1: to be opening across the street in twenty twenty six. 945 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Insiders.
