You know, he don't even want guys 105 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: to play preseason before you notise, I think it's gonna 106 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: be twenty NFL regular season games. Uh. So you know, uh, 107 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: people get excited early, but you know it's a it's 108 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: a long way to go. It's just off season, just 109 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: kind of just putting your feet in it. You nobody's 110 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: gonna win a super Bowl today, but you can work 111 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: towards winning the super Bowl in and Phil. So I mean, uh, 112 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: just kind of putting a I call it like the 113 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: dark hours, that hours nobody sees and uh, you know 114 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 1: people don't know about Okay, I'm only asking because you 115 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: brought it up. What do you think about the note, 116 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: Like the s idea of no preseason and all that. 117 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: I think it's unfair. Uh. I think we at least 118 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: need at least two because you got guys who's undrafted, 119 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: whose rookies who need to get that kind of you know, 120 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: need to put they tap, they foot in the water, 121 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: and uh, to say no preseason games to those guys, 122 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of unfair, you know. To me, 123 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: I'm a veteran, even me, like I need preseason games 124 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: just to get maybe two or three series, you know, 125 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: like just to get the feel back again, you know, 126 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: because nobody, I mean, you're not used to playing football 127 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: til you get out there to play it again, you know. 128 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: So it's kind of reset for everybody. I think it 129 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: should at least be two. Uh, but if you're gonna 130 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: talk about eighteen games, needs to be two. Two by weeks. So, 131 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: I mean, cause seventeen is a lot already and with 132 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: one bye week, so if you're gonna talk about eighteen games, 133 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: then we have to include two by weeks. So I 134 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: mean it could be done, you know, long as guys 135 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: be professionals, take care of their bodies and uh, you 136 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: know it, it could be done. It's still early. Like 137 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: a different douget feel around here now, I mean it's 138 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean, Gerard is a n is a Bill Belichick guy, 139 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: So I mean it's not gonna be like crazy different. 140 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: You know, of course he's gonna he's still young, so 141 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna bring you know, a a a little new energy. 142 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: But it's kind of still the same. It's to me. 143 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: You know, the workouts are almost still the same. It's 144 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: not really gonna be much different. I mean, Girard's I 145 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: you would put him under the the Belichick tree because 146 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: he he was, you know, Belichick player, he coached under Belichick. 147 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: So it's kind of gonna be gonna be the same thing. 148 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: Defensive wise. You know, I don't officer side, I don't 149 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: get involved in that, but it's gonna be the same 150 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: to me, just a few different things. You know, you 151 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: got some younger coaches. You know, first year defensive coordinator 152 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: Demarcous Covert team, Uh, Jerry Montgomery d line coach came 153 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,919 Speaker 1: from Green Bay. So, I mean, you got a a 154 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: couple of new guys, but for the most part, it's 155 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: pretty good. Prett to me, it's gonna be the same. 156 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: Do you think that Christian getting his two deals sticking 157 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: around here over the while?
