<v Speaker 2>How are you doing today?

0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:03.360
<v Speaker 4>Good? Hey?

0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 2>You guys doing not too bad? Man? So my first

0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:07.080
<v Speaker 2>question is Week fourteen.

0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Right, you've played a lot of snaps every year, really

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:11.080
<v Speaker 3>up to this point of your career, you play was

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 3>it eighty percent of the snaps? Pretty much every single game.

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:15.600
<v Speaker 3>What's that process like for you to go through a

0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:17.960
<v Speaker 3>week and get ready to play that workload every single

0:01:18.000 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 3>week at that position where it's so demanded.

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean it starts as soon as that last

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:24.600
<v Speaker 4>games over. It starts right away. I mean, actually this

0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 4>year we're fortunately we got cold Plunge in the house,

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 4>so we hit that every day as much as I

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:31.559
<v Speaker 4>can hot tub and then just really kind of standing

0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 4>on my what is underlooked I think, and we can

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:38.160
<v Speaker 4>overlook nutrition. A lot of people will kind of go

0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:40.319
<v Speaker 4>with boots or this or that, all these different gadgets,

0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 4>and sometimes it's as simple as just hey, sweets can

0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:45.960
<v Speaker 4>cause inflammation, stuff can cause like water and just eating

0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 4>healthy and that's my biggest thing that's to focus on

0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:49.280
<v Speaker 4>during the weeks.

0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 2>So my nighttime ice cream is not doing me a favor.

0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 4>I'll tell you what though. That might be my weakness too.

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:56.480
<v Speaker 4>Adding to chocolate chip cookies just too good. Yeah, I know.

0:01:56.560 --> 0:01:58.120
<v Speaker 2>So the cold Plunch couldn't fit in the RV back

0:01:58.160 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 2>in the day that I'm guessing.

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 4>No, no, no, no, I don't think I got some inflatable zone.

0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 3>Now, yeah, you might be able to make that work.

0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:05.400
<v Speaker 3>So office, big win over the New York Jets. You

0:02:05.440 --> 0:02:08.360
<v Speaker 3>guys get some some late game really all three phase.

0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:11.040
<v Speaker 3>The defense pushes the Jets back for that field goal Malik,

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 3>the big kick return two, and the offense goes on

0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:14.799
<v Speaker 3>the field. What was that like for you guys in

0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 3>a situation where you kind of had to have that

0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:18.800
<v Speaker 3>game to make all those big plays take us in

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.079
<v Speaker 3>the kind of feeling of the team after that big win.

0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:22.919
<v Speaker 4>Man, it was great to be able to go through

0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 4>those highs and lows to the entire game and then

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 4>to come at the end of the game with that

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:28.920
<v Speaker 4>kind of momentum. I'm really starting with saying on that

0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 4>punt we had from Jake Bailey and just just go

0:02:33.160 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 4>out there and just stop them right there, and then

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 4>the defense to go out and get the three and

0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 4>out or whatever for one first down, and then the

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:41.680
<v Speaker 4>offense to go drive the field. It was just awesome

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:44.640
<v Speaker 4>to have that kind of just all three phases firing

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:46.520
<v Speaker 4>all cylinders at the end of the game and ready

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 4>to roll that. We just got to make sure we

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 4>harness that and just emulate that every week from here

0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:51.760
<v Speaker 4>on out.

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:53.920
<v Speaker 3>What was your message to the guys on that drive,

0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:55.440
<v Speaker 3>because you get the you know, they have the big

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 3>completion Blazaard that gets them into field goal range. Then

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 3>you go TfL from Benito, you have the big sack,

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 3>and then Kendall makes the play where they get Adams

0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:03.640
<v Speaker 3>out of bounce, which I feelsn't got a bounce.

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:05.880
<v Speaker 2>We probably have a chance twenty seconds off the clock

0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:06.920
<v Speaker 2>correct at least.

0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:10.120
<v Speaker 3>Right What was the chat in that huddle before those plays,

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:12.920
<v Speaker 3>because that's a spot where teams could like, you know, what,

0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:14.240
<v Speaker 3>was us, We're gonna lose another tight game.

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:15.800
<v Speaker 2>You guys stepped up and made plays right there.

0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.079
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think it's it's it's I mean, I talk

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 4>them with a walk. It was literally, it's, hey, look

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 4>we need three plays. We just need to make three plays.

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:24.040
<v Speaker 4>They're in field goal range. We either try to knock

0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:25.560
<v Speaker 4>them out of it by getting some TFLs and get

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 4>some negative plays, or we can get this clock stopped.

0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:29.079
<v Speaker 4>And that's what we made sure we did, and we're

0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:30.959
<v Speaker 4>thankful we were able to make those plays and do that.

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 4>And even then the game wasn't over. I mean then

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 4>you had to go out there and do the kickoff

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 4>and then the offense had to go drive the field.

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:39.080
<v Speaker 4>So it was just one third part of the the

0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 4>finish of that game to will to take it to overtime.

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.040
<v Speaker 3>Have you guys gotten to the point now where it's

0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 3>like two has the ball weight you kind of feel

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:47.160
<v Speaker 3>like we're in good hands right here.

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's been great, man. It's just seeing that

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:53.600
<v Speaker 4>offense click and how they're rolling, the technicality between him

0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:55.720
<v Speaker 4>and or just I guess the precision and are more

0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 4>sos I'm looking forward him, the receivers, O line run

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:01.720
<v Speaker 4>everybody Johnny and those It's just everyone's just clicking like

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 4>that at the end of the game. Is just awesome to.

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 3>See that touchdown and two point conversion had to be

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:08.320
<v Speaker 3>so tied, like it had to be perfectly timed up,

0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:11.560
<v Speaker 3>and they both were big plays in that game. So

0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:14.040
<v Speaker 3>I mentioned the sack that was your sixteenth of the

0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:16.480
<v Speaker 3>last two years, six this year, ten last year. Did

0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:18.240
<v Speaker 3>you know that you have the second most sacks among

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 3>defensive tackles in the leagues in the beginning of last year.

0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:23.840
<v Speaker 4>I heard that this morning. I did not as of

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:26.000
<v Speaker 4>last night or until I heard that this morning, And

0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.040
<v Speaker 4>I think it just honestly just a huge blessing God

0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:30.880
<v Speaker 4>being to gift me with be able to stay healthy.

0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean, we all know it's a huge part of

0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:33.960
<v Speaker 4>this game, and be able to be out there and

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 4>make those plays, it's just an awesome experience. Able to

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:39.640
<v Speaker 4>do that for myself and the team and Bill make

0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:41.839
<v Speaker 4>those big plays in those last few minute drives and

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:44.440
<v Speaker 4>really taken close out the game.

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.160
<v Speaker 3>It seems like whether maybe I'm on social media too much.

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:49.600
<v Speaker 3>Mike wuld say that I am, But I always see like, oh,

0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 3>Zack Sealer so underrated. It's like he has the second

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.240
<v Speaker 3>most sacks, a monk like Chris Jones is behind you

0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:55.960
<v Speaker 3>in the stat Like the guy that everyone says is

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 3>the best defensive tackle in football has less sacks than

0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.360
<v Speaker 3>Zach Sealer. So I always see this comment wry about

0:05:00.400 --> 0:05:02.520
<v Speaker 3>how you're the most underrated player in the league, and

0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:04.640
<v Speaker 3>I was curious, do you hear that? Have you heard

0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:07.279
<v Speaker 3>that from obviously not friends and family, but have you

0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:09.640
<v Speaker 3>heard it from just the discourse, And what's your kind

0:05:09.640 --> 0:05:10.200
<v Speaker 3>of take on that.

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:12.280
<v Speaker 4>Over the years, I've heard it, and honestly, early on

0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:13.480
<v Speaker 4>it was a chip on my shoulder. I'm like, you

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:16.080
<v Speaker 4>know what, good, Okay, I can make that work and

0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:17.600
<v Speaker 4>I still love to have that there, and I still

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 4>love to think, Okay, hey, I still haven't done I

0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 4>still have improved, and that's what I kind of helped

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:23.880
<v Speaker 4>motivate myself, besides my name, besides doing it for the

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:26.680
<v Speaker 4>family and doing it for the Dolphins. But honestly, i'd

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:28.440
<v Speaker 4>love to think that now I'm kind of making that

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:30.359
<v Speaker 4>statement where it's like, hey, look, it's not like that anymore.

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 4>And I know I'm a serious competitor in the league

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:35.440
<v Speaker 4>and I can go out there and make those impactful

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:37.239
<v Speaker 4>plays at the most meaningful moments.

0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:39.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're scoring playoff touchdowns. You're running over the Titans

0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 3>quarterback on the goal line last year after a pick

0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 3>like it's pretty hard to go too the radar when

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.480
<v Speaker 3>you make that many splash plays. Speaking of splash players,

0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:48.200
<v Speaker 3>you play alongside of a guy who's done it for

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.200
<v Speaker 3>sixteen seventeen years now in koalas Campbell, and he mentions

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:52.599
<v Speaker 3>you all the time you talk about him and how

0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:54.760
<v Speaker 3>much you guys have helped each other. How did that

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.000
<v Speaker 3>click so quickly for guys that got together in the

0:05:57.000 --> 0:05:58.640
<v Speaker 3>first year and all of a sudden, you guys play

0:05:58.640 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 3>off each.

0:05:58.920 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Other so well.

0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 4>It's honestly, especially when they're playing in there like that,

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:04.520
<v Speaker 4>it's it's a relationship. I mean, not to make it weird,

0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 4>but like it's, hey man, how do you see the game?

0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 4>It's taking that extra time, that extra tape and like

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 4>what are you thinking here? And then I'm like, this

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:13.920
<v Speaker 4>is how I see it. I want to be able

0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.440
<v Speaker 4>to see it from your lens. That's something and Christian

0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:20.720
<v Speaker 4>had going four years in a row. Was hey, really

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:22.320
<v Speaker 4>three years? At first you were kind of just figuring

0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.400
<v Speaker 4>things out ourselves, but once we kind of got that

0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 4>rhythm going, it was like, Okay, this is how I

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:28.080
<v Speaker 4>know he's gonna play it. I need to play it

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 4>like this now without talking, without that unspoken word out there.

0:06:32.560 --> 0:06:34.920
<v Speaker 4>And that's what kalayis and I with him being such

0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 4>a veteran of me being more on that veteran side

0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:40.640
<v Speaker 4>of things nowadays, is being able to get that going

0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:43.640
<v Speaker 4>asap and not taking a year or two and be

0:06:43.640 --> 0:06:44.800
<v Speaker 4>able to make that happen right now.

0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:46.200
<v Speaker 2>So you guys were able to build that within the

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:46.960
<v Speaker 2>first season together.

0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.479
<v Speaker 3>Like, so you is that you said, it's not a

0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 3>spoken bond, like you kind of just feel off of

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:52.040
<v Speaker 3>each other.

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.440
<v Speaker 4>During the game, so you know, it's a it's a

0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 4>ton of talking and sitting down and watching tape and

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:59.080
<v Speaker 4>that Okay, hey they're doing this here. I think I'm

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.440
<v Speaker 4>gonna do this. I'll probably play it like this. Okay, Yeah,

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.000
<v Speaker 4>I can do this to help you out there or

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:05.160
<v Speaker 4>help work off you here. But then when you're out there,

0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 4>you're not sitting there talking like, hey, if this comes here,

0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 4>you've already talked those talks and you already know what's

0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:12.400
<v Speaker 4>going to happen, and you can be proactive.

0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 2>It seems to really show up in the pass rush games.

0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 2>You I call the stunts.

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:17.040
<v Speaker 3>You guys, ron Like, you got so much production off

0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:19.040
<v Speaker 3>those twists and those those pickstons, right, that's a pretty

0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:19.600
<v Speaker 3>big part of it too.

0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:21.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we love doing that, and I think it helps

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:24.520
<v Speaker 4>us up frontward. It makes a cleaner makes it cleaner

0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:26.440
<v Speaker 4>for us as rushers, and we can play off each

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 4>other very well. And having guys that are unselfless, because

0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:31.120
<v Speaker 4>you know, sometimes you're just a sacrificial lamb in those

0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:33.360
<v Speaker 4>games and sometimes you're the one that comes free. So

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:34.840
<v Speaker 4>it's just how the chips fall.

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's fun to watch the way you guys work

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:38.280
<v Speaker 3>together and under coach Clark of course, the one that

0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.440
<v Speaker 3>kind of puts all together. You know, he's been here

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 3>since I got here, so he's kind of one of

0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:42.680
<v Speaker 3>my guys.

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:43.440
<v Speaker 2>And you as well.

0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 3>Just tell us a little bit about coach Clark. What's

0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:46.840
<v Speaker 3>something maybe we don't know about him in terms of

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:48.880
<v Speaker 3>how he leads and motivates. And I know he's a

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 3>little bit loud. You can hear h much training camp

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:52.560
<v Speaker 3>in the practices, but yeah, tell us about coach Clark

0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:52.920
<v Speaker 3>a little bit.

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:55.840
<v Speaker 4>Became man, He's an amazing coach. He's really helped step

0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:57.760
<v Speaker 4>my game up over the years. And I'll tell anyone

0:07:57.760 --> 0:07:59.240
<v Speaker 4>coming in here. I tell all those guys you can

0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 4>ask the new guys out here. A few weeks ago.

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, look, he's gonna make you mad what he does.

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:05.600
<v Speaker 4>He's gonna find what makes you mad. He's know what

0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:08.040
<v Speaker 4>to push that button, and he's gonna push it just

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:10.360
<v Speaker 4>to make you more mad, to get you, to motivate you.

0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 4>And when he's doing that, I'm like, it's like, hey,

0:08:12.960 --> 0:08:15.280
<v Speaker 4>look his technique. He knows what he's teaching, he knows

0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 4>what he's doing. He's so almost overcoached to a point

0:08:18.760 --> 0:08:22.160
<v Speaker 4>where like you basically were not practicing to practice, you're

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.480
<v Speaker 4>practicing until you can't do it wrong. And that's something

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 4>we really focus on every day with all of our

0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 4>individual drills, with all our reps, and and he focuses

0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.400
<v Speaker 4>on and we don't. We don't ever fall fall back

0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 4>or relent. It's like, hey, look like today, that's just

0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.040
<v Speaker 4>slow day. Let's take it. He's a not like we're

0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 4>gonna get after it. Make sure we're doing this right.

0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:38.719
<v Speaker 3>So he must, he must really kind of fall back

0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:40.599
<v Speaker 3>on you to be the conduit for the rest of

0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:42.640
<v Speaker 3>the room because you convey that message to the players, like, look,

0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:43.800
<v Speaker 3>he's doing this for your best interest.

0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:46.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. Absolutely, he knows that. He knows like, look, if

0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 4>you don't have your players on your side, they're not

0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:50.200
<v Speaker 4>gonna they're not gonna do as the coaches are saying,

0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:52.000
<v Speaker 4>and they're not going to do this. So it's a

0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.040
<v Speaker 4>two way street, and it's it's it's working with him

0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:57.440
<v Speaker 4>and us working together to make those practices meaningful.

0:08:57.840 --> 0:08:59.839
<v Speaker 3>What's the mindset here coming up for a big game

0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 3>and Houston got a road trip here ahead, a chance

0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:03.319
<v Speaker 3>to get back to five hundred for the first time

0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:05.960
<v Speaker 3>since Week two. What's your the teams team's mindset going

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:06.520
<v Speaker 3>into this game?

0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.120
<v Speaker 4>Man it's one more game. It's one more game. It's playoffs.

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 4>For us, it's it's go out there, study the tape,

0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 4>do extra get the extra body work, the clean eating,

0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.439
<v Speaker 4>all that stuff we kind of talked about before, and

0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:18.640
<v Speaker 4>the extra time in the tape room to really take it.

0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:20.840
<v Speaker 4>These are guys that we don't play often. Man. Well,

0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:22.440
<v Speaker 4>I guess we have the last couple of years, but

0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 4>they're not typically on the schedule. And to be able

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:28.079
<v Speaker 4>to take it to these guys and to adjust to

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 4>how they play the game and how they how we

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 4>can play and play them at best.

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:33.800
<v Speaker 3>Looking forward to it should be a fun one. Two

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:35.800
<v Speaker 3>more questions here for you real quick. First year as

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:38.439
<v Speaker 3>a father playing in the league. How has that changed

0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 3>your approach to football and life? Everything changes?

0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:44.160
<v Speaker 4>Ye, it does. Man, It's been such a blessing. He

0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:48.400
<v Speaker 4>is just as the little terror is the best way possible. Man.

0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:51.400
<v Speaker 4>I know, but you know, I've I started waking up

0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:53.560
<v Speaker 4>earlier to actually do the plunge and stuff in the mornings,

0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 4>and I just had to do that that much earlier now.

0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:57.719
<v Speaker 4>But it's kind of cool with the time we come

0:09:57.720 --> 0:09:59.400
<v Speaker 4>in and able to he wakes up at like six

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:01.400
<v Speaker 4>point thirty on them dot. So it's really special that

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 4>I can go in there. I'll wake him up, I'll

0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:04.800
<v Speaker 4>get him out of his crib, you know'll change him,

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:06.760
<v Speaker 4>kind of play with him about ten minutes before coming in,

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.199
<v Speaker 4>and it's just such a rejuvenating feeling, Like this just

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 4>shows you's like, hey, this is why I'm doing this,

0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.480
<v Speaker 4>like for him, for my family and everything really had

0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:15.640
<v Speaker 4>those moments with him were special. So it's been it's

0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 4>been awesome.

0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.719
<v Speaker 3>It's the stress reducers play with your kids. Yeah, it

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:20.600
<v Speaker 3>takes with all the stress of life. Everything is just

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:22.400
<v Speaker 3>good after that, absolutely right. It's great to hear one

0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:23.760
<v Speaker 3>more thing for you right here. We just had my

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:26.280
<v Speaker 3>cause my CLEAs this past week. Sealer's Safe Haven was

0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:28.960
<v Speaker 3>the organization that you represented. Obviously your namesake there, tell

0:10:29.040 --> 0:10:29.839
<v Speaker 3>us about that little bit.

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, it's uh, my wife and I started about

0:10:32.320 --> 0:10:34.520
<v Speaker 4>two years ago, three years ago when we first kind

0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:38.680
<v Speaker 4>of brought into in the light, and our biggest focus

0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:40.560
<v Speaker 4>is really trying to get kids outdoors. I think a

0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:42.319
<v Speaker 4>lot of times now we get so stuck inside, still

0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:44.480
<v Speaker 4>stuck on our phone, so stuck in all these different things,

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 4>and I mean, man, we were meant to be outside

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 4>so I think just getting kids outdoors and trying to

0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:51.240
<v Speaker 4>spark an interest with somebody where maybe they didn't have

0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:53.440
<v Speaker 4>that opportunity. Now, So we go outside, We go see

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:57.840
<v Speaker 4>animals or birds, trees, whatever, go hiking, just enjoy God's nature.

0:10:58.160 --> 0:11:00.199
<v Speaker 4>I mean, how he built this earth is just it's

0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:02.680
<v Speaker 4>a really big passion of ours. So that's what the

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.160
<v Speaker 4>Foundation focus on, is getting kids outdoors. We did some

0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:08.160
<v Speaker 4>stuff with the seminoles last year. We're doing some stuff

0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 4>in Missouri now where my wife's from, and hopefully we

0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:12.240
<v Speaker 4>take some to Michigan and Tennessee as well, where we

0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:14.960
<v Speaker 4>just kind of keep spreading out and just really just

0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.240
<v Speaker 4>focus on getting another generation outside.

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:18.839
<v Speaker 3>Oh man, I love that. My rule as a kid

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:20.760
<v Speaker 3>was the street light comes on, you have to go inside.

0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 3>So I was outside all day after school, every single day.

0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:23.880

<v Speaker 3>If the Dolphins find their way to four and oh,

0:12:05.280 --> 0:12:08.640
<v Speaker 3>they will find their way to the postseason most likely.

0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 3>In fact, I would guarantee it. What was that Men's

0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 3>warehouse commercial? You gotta like the way you look, I

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:14.080
<v Speaker 3>guarantee it.

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:17.040
<v Speaker 4>You're gonna like the way you look? I guarantee it.

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:19.240
<v Speaker 3>All right, So let's go ahead and make our Week

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:22.400
<v Speaker 3>fifteen picks ten and three and Week fourteen back on

0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:25.679
<v Speaker 3>the winning side of things. I also had a miscalculation

0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:28.640
<v Speaker 3>on my numbers. I had given myself three additional losses

0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:30.960
<v Speaker 3>compared to what I actually had, And that is why

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't do live math on the air, because I

0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.000
<v Speaker 3>had to go back over my notepad that has all

0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 3>my picks all season long for the last like five years,

0:12:37.600 --> 0:12:39.880
<v Speaker 3>and find out where the error was. It was back

0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:42.880
<v Speaker 3>in like week nine. Got that fixed. The record is

0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:46.959
<v Speaker 3>one forty nine and fifty nine. There are, let's see,

0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:49.840
<v Speaker 3>two hundred and eight games in the bag. We have

0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.559
<v Speaker 3>sixty four games left to go. It's a seventy one

0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:54.080
<v Speaker 3>point six percent win percentage.

0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Cue the music.

0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:57.840
<v Speaker 3>We picked the Rams over the Niners on Thursday night.

0:12:57.880 --> 0:12:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Did that game win? We don't know.

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:02.760
<v Speaker 3>We'll find out last night. I guess you guys already

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:04.920
<v Speaker 3>heard me. Take the Texans over the Dolphins. I just

0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:08.000
<v Speaker 3>have to see it before I believe it. In a

0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:11.080
<v Speaker 3>big game, in a big spot, the Chiefs over the Browns.

0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:13.320
<v Speaker 3>The Chiefs are gonna get picked off at some point.

0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:16.560
<v Speaker 3>It could be this week. If it's Jamis Winston, you

0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:19.320
<v Speaker 3>know good Jamis, they will do it. If it's bad Jamis,

0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:24.360
<v Speaker 3>it'll be absolutely blown up in the Chiefs favor there.

0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:26.640
<v Speaker 2>I'll take the Bengals over the Titans.

0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:29.840
<v Speaker 3>Although the Bengals against the Cowboys did not inspire confidence

0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:32.040
<v Speaker 3>in my prediction they would run the table when they

0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:34.400
<v Speaker 3>were four and seven. Was stupid because they looked like

0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 3>crap against the Cowboys after getting ran roughshot on the

0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:39.560
<v Speaker 3>Pittsburgh Dealers. A're gonna win this one though, over the

0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:43.120
<v Speaker 3>punchless Titans. I'll take the Commanders, excuse me, over the

0:13:43.120 --> 0:13:48.079
<v Speaker 3>Saints when they go back home to Jayden Daniel's stomping

0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:50.559
<v Speaker 3>grounds or last year stomping grounds at LSU.

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:52.240
<v Speaker 2>I'll take the Ravens over the Giants.

0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 4>Man.

0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:54.120
<v Speaker 2>These are some runaway games, aren't they.

0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 3>I'll take the Cowboys over the Panthers, even though I'm

0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:59.080
<v Speaker 3>pretty sure that's gonna be a popular pick for the

0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:01.440
<v Speaker 3>Panthers there. But just because the Panthers have come close

0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:03.720
<v Speaker 3>doesn't mean they know how to win yet. And Dallas,

0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:05.720
<v Speaker 3>as bad as they are, I think can fluster Bryce

0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:07.839
<v Speaker 3>Young and get a victory in that pointless game that

0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:10.959
<v Speaker 3>doesn't matter at all in the NFL landscape. I'll take

0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 3>the Jets over the Jags. Just give me a couple

0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:15.280
<v Speaker 3>of Jets wins here in the next couple of weeks

0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:17.839
<v Speaker 3>to make that draft pick fall down a little bit,

0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:20.880
<v Speaker 3>and then, yeah, I kind of hope they do remove

0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:22.960
<v Speaker 3>Aaron Rodgers from the lineup in that Week eighteen game

0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:25.400
<v Speaker 3>if it matters for us. Otherwise, I couldn't care less.

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:27.680
<v Speaker 3>I'll take the Colt over the Broncos. I'm gonna pick

0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.400
<v Speaker 3>Indianapolis here because I think that their game translates better

0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:32.800
<v Speaker 3>into poor weather. In fact, why don't we go ahead

0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:34.400
<v Speaker 3>and do what I like to do on the air

0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.440
<v Speaker 3>and go live weather report Denver on the weather app.

0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Is it going to be snowy? I mean, Richardson's going

0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:42.320
<v Speaker 3>to be scattershot either way. It's not going to be snowy,

0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:44.120
<v Speaker 3>but it's going to be very cold down in the twenties.

0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 3>And actually, man, Denver weather's so weird. It has a

0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:48.680
<v Speaker 3>high of fifty four that day and a low of

0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 3>twenty eight. I know that the low means nighttime temperature,

0:14:51.360 --> 0:14:54.120
<v Speaker 3>so just going to be cold, no precipitation there. But

0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:56.920
<v Speaker 3>I still like Anthony Richard sim in those elements to

0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 3>be a better player than bow Knicks, who I still

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:01.920
<v Speaker 3>nix is better than I thought he was gonna be.

0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:03.760
<v Speaker 3>But I think you've seen his ceiling and I think

0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:05.040
<v Speaker 3>he's gonna be one of those guys where you get

0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:06.840
<v Speaker 3>more tape on him, and I don't think there's like

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.160
<v Speaker 3>a second curve ball for him to adjust and you know,

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.520
<v Speaker 3>make an evolution in his career, because well that already

0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:14.960
<v Speaker 3>occurred because you played sixty games in college and you're

0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 3>twenty five years old as a rookie, so I don't

0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:18.080
<v Speaker 3>think it's gonna happen for you in the NFL. I

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:20.560
<v Speaker 3>think we've seen his peak already at the stage of

0:15:20.560 --> 0:15:23.520
<v Speaker 3>his career. I'll take the Bills over the Lions in

0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 3>what is probably a Super Bowl preview at this point.

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:28.840
<v Speaker 3>I know Buffalo couldn't get a stop against the Rams

0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:32.400
<v Speaker 3>last week, but that Rams offense is pretty dang good.

0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:34.200
<v Speaker 3>The Lions, I feel like if they're going to lose

0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:35.560
<v Speaker 3>a game to the rest of the way, it's probably

0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:35.920
<v Speaker 3>this one.

0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.440
<v Speaker 2>So give me Buffalo in a huge huge.

0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 3>Actually doesn't really matter, right, I mean, Buffalo actually needs

0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:43.080
<v Speaker 3>to win to stay tight with the Chiefs for that

0:15:43.120 --> 0:15:46.760
<v Speaker 3>first overall seed, because man, if the Chiefs go into

0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:48.800
<v Speaker 3>Week eight team and we have to have them beat

0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:50.560
<v Speaker 3>the Broncos, I don't want to see it be Blaine

0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:53.480
<v Speaker 3>Gabber in that game. I'll take the Cardinals over the Patriots,

0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:57.800
<v Speaker 3>although the Cardinals are tail spinning right now, nose diving

0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:01.320
<v Speaker 3>after a really good month of October into November. There,

0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:03.920
<v Speaker 3>I'll take the Bucks over the Chargers. This is the

0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:06.760
<v Speaker 3>hardest game to pick for me this week. The Chargers

0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:10.360
<v Speaker 3>aren't a good team like they You can't have Lad

0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:13.640
<v Speaker 3>McConkie be your number one receiver with Quinton Johnston and

0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:16.640
<v Speaker 3>Josh Palmer. They're all like decent players, right, But it's

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:19.040
<v Speaker 3>just like you're not going to compete against teams that

0:16:19.120 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 3>have Mike Evans and guys that can you know, Bucky

0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.040
<v Speaker 3>Irvin although I think he's hurt, but either way, will shoot.

0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:29.160
<v Speaker 3>Josh JK. Dobbins went down. Their whole offense went down too.

0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:30.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean, the only way they scored in that KC

0:16:30.720 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 3>game was to run the football. I just think that

0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:34.520
<v Speaker 3>the Bucks can score enough points even on a good

0:16:34.600 --> 0:16:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Chargers defense. They need Baker to play clean and you know,

0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:42.680
<v Speaker 3>and basically prevent the Chargers from getting their takeaway because

0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:44.040
<v Speaker 3>its a long way they can really beat teams is

0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 3>that they went on defense. I'll take the Bucks on

0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:48.760
<v Speaker 3>the road in Los Angeles. Give me the Packers over

0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:50.560
<v Speaker 3>the Seahawks. I think the Seahawks have been kind of

0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:52.480
<v Speaker 3>on a magic carpet ride, and the Packers, I think

0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:54.040
<v Speaker 3>are going to do what they did last year and

0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:55.720
<v Speaker 3>get red hot and win a bunch of games down

0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:58.200
<v Speaker 3>the stretch. They've already begun that with wins over the Niners, Bears,

0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.600
<v Speaker 3>and your Miami Dolphins. I'll take And what the hell

0:17:00.600 --> 0:17:03.920
<v Speaker 3>are these primetime games? What are we doing Bears and Vikings?

0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:08.639
<v Speaker 3>Why why Flores is gonna tear Kayler Williams's head off

0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:11.200
<v Speaker 3>in that game. I'll take the Falcons over the Raiders

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.880
<v Speaker 3>on Monday Night. What's the point of doing flex scheduling

0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:17.560
<v Speaker 3>if you're gonna keep Falcons and Raiders on Monday Night

0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:20.879
<v Speaker 3>one week after you kept Bengals and Cowboys. We're gonna

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:24.879
<v Speaker 3>look back at week fourteen and fifteen in like early

0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:26.639
<v Speaker 3>April and be like, I wish we had those Monday

0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:28.920
<v Speaker 3>night games back. I didn't watch the game on Monday,

0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.440
<v Speaker 3>did you. I don't care about Cowboys and Bengals. I'd

0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:34.040
<v Speaker 3>there's so much content out there. I'm not gonna watch

0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:37.880
<v Speaker 3>pointless football on primetime football. So that's my rant, Falcons

0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.720
<v Speaker 3>over the Raiders in that one. Those are the Week

0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:42.960
<v Speaker 3>fifteen picks to take our last break right there. Come

0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:45.240
<v Speaker 3>back on the other side and welcome to Kyle Krabs.

0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:48.040
<v Speaker 3>That's an ext Draft Time podcast, your host Travis Wingfield,

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:53.399
<v Speaker 3>brought to you by AutoNation. We do not have college

0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:56.600
<v Speaker 3>football this weekend outside of Army and Navy, which is

0:17:56.640 --> 0:17:58.200
<v Speaker 3>a fun game to watch. But that does not mean

0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:00.639
<v Speaker 3>we will not have Kyle krabs Well coming into the

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:03.000
<v Speaker 3>show as we do every single Friday. Kyle, my friend,

0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.040
<v Speaker 3>how are you And what is your Army Navy tradition

0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:06.919
<v Speaker 3>if you have one?

0:18:07.320 --> 0:18:10.680
<v Speaker 1>So I wish I made it a tradition, but I

0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:14.800
<v Speaker 1>went one year, very very cool. It was maybe twenty

0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.520
<v Speaker 1>to twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen Army Navy, which everyone was

0:18:17.520 --> 0:18:20.680
<v Speaker 1>in Philadelphia and it went to like the last play

0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:23.000
<v Speaker 1>of the game on a Hail Mary, and somebody in

0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 1>the box was like, man, I hope it doesn't go

0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:27.040
<v Speaker 1>to overtime so I can go home. And I just

0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:30.399
<v Speaker 1>can't imagine being in the box hoping for not watching

0:18:30.400 --> 0:18:34.000
<v Speaker 1>more football, not watching overtime football. And when the college

0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:35.840
<v Speaker 1>football season is done the way that it is here,

0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:39.160
<v Speaker 1>I try to make it a habit to appreciate every

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:41.560
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to watch football. So my Army Navy tradition is

0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:44.719
<v Speaker 1>to watch the game enthusiastically despite the fact that it

0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.879
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have a lot, a bunch of pro prospects or

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:47.520
<v Speaker 1>anything like that.

0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:51.640
<v Speaker 3>Does that answer surprise anybody from our great Kyle Krabs here.

0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 3>It shouldn't, Kyle. I want to get into college stuff

0:18:54.520 --> 0:18:57.560
<v Speaker 3>here with you real quick. But first, you know, you

0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:00.040
<v Speaker 3>inspired me to ask a question to both Mike and

0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:03.920
<v Speaker 3>Tua on Wednesday from your film review, and I saw

0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:05.840
<v Speaker 3>it too, but I like the way you broke it down, obviously,

0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:07.919
<v Speaker 3>and so I brought it up to Tua, and I

0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:09.720
<v Speaker 3>really liked the way he answered the question. But it

0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:12.040
<v Speaker 3>was basically, you know, the way he was able to

0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:14.880
<v Speaker 3>change the launch point on the touchdown pass to Tyreek

0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.679
<v Speaker 3>Hill against what was a six man pressure, and Tua

0:19:17.720 --> 0:19:20.040
<v Speaker 3>had talked about in his answer how they saw that

0:19:20.080 --> 0:19:22.960
<v Speaker 3>same rep in practice and they took the outside guy

0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:25.520
<v Speaker 3>and let the inside go go free, which obviously produces

0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:27.640
<v Speaker 3>more a sack in those situations most likely.

0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:29.240
<v Speaker 2>And it just kind of got.

0:19:29.080 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 3>Me thinking about you know, you've i feel like you've

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:36.560
<v Speaker 3>always been very fair with Tua with how you've evaluated

0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:39.720
<v Speaker 3>his game, But lately I've I've noticed a lot more

0:19:39.760 --> 0:19:43.280
<v Speaker 3>conviction in belief in him from you, and I'm curious

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:46.479
<v Speaker 3>where that comes from. How much this growth has I

0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:50.800
<v Speaker 3>suppose maybe changed not just your opinion of Tua's maybe ceiling,

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:53.680
<v Speaker 3>but the way everyone looks at this guy around the league,

0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:56.520
<v Speaker 3>Cause I feel like right now, man, all the talk

0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:58.320
<v Speaker 3>that's you know, used to be out there about Tua

0:19:58.400 --> 0:19:59.919
<v Speaker 3>that was still negative, it's it's kind of going a

0:20:00.240 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, there's the same accounts are doing it that

0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:04.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, maybe for attention or for for clicks, but

0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:06.560
<v Speaker 3>it's hard to find guys that don't see it with

0:20:06.600 --> 0:20:07.320
<v Speaker 3>this guy anymore.

0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:14.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think the the most common theme amongst successful,

0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:18.960
<v Speaker 1>highly successful NFL quarterbacks is confidence. It's not a physical trade.

0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:23.640
<v Speaker 1>It's it's not arm strength. It's not ability to shrug

0:20:23.680 --> 0:20:27.240
<v Speaker 1>off two edge rushers who got free runs in the

0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:29.719
<v Speaker 1>pocket and then throw the ball fifty yards. It's not

0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 1>any of the physical attributes. We've seen quarterbacks of every shape, size,

0:20:35.560 --> 0:20:37.560
<v Speaker 1>and skill set that have come into the league and

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:42.200
<v Speaker 1>been highly successful quarterbacks. And the common theme is confidence.

0:20:42.960 --> 0:20:46.560
<v Speaker 1>And I just feel like watching Tua Tongue aloa this

0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:50.080
<v Speaker 1>year with the amount of confidence that he exudes. And

0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:52.119
<v Speaker 1>you've kind of heard like those that have been in

0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:55.200
<v Speaker 1>the building alluding to that the last couple of years

0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:59.160
<v Speaker 1>as being where he's continued to take steps forward, forward, forward, forward.

0:20:59.359 --> 0:21:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I think you're seeing it in the public eye more

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:05.520
<v Speaker 1>the way that he broke down the question that you

0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:08.960
<v Speaker 1>asked him about exactly what happened, and the recall of

0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:12.280
<v Speaker 1>this happened, and this happened in practice with we had

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:15.320
<v Speaker 1>this protection and the way that they sorted it out

0:21:15.400 --> 0:21:17.600
<v Speaker 1>and the coverage that we got. And you see so

0:21:17.680 --> 0:21:19.840
<v Speaker 1>much of that in the public eye. You see it

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 1>at the line of scrimmage. You see it with the

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:24.240
<v Speaker 1>way he quickly gets to the right reads and eliminates

0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>certain progressions to be in the right spot to start

0:21:28.359 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 1>with his eyes in the right place based on the

0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:34.639
<v Speaker 1>coverage shell that you're getting. What the content thing that

0:21:34.680 --> 0:21:37.520
<v Speaker 1>he just did with Keith Lee this week, I thought

0:21:37.600 --> 0:21:40.639
<v Speaker 1>was another great example of that, him talking about all

0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:43.160
<v Speaker 1>the things you have to manage and process and that's

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:45.720
<v Speaker 1>part of the maturation of a quarterback in the NFL.

0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:50.040
<v Speaker 1>And I think you've seen the fruits of that bore

0:21:50.200 --> 0:21:53.280
<v Speaker 1>this year for Tua in a way that makes it

0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:57.919
<v Speaker 1>really hard unless you're just gonna be unabashedly biased for

0:21:58.040 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 1>whatever personal reason you have to be that to sit

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:04.440
<v Speaker 1>here and continue to cast out about who he is

0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:05.000
<v Speaker 1>as a player.

0:22:05.400 --> 0:22:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Well, a blue check mark on X does come with

0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:11.760
<v Speaker 3>monetization rewards. If you get enough engagement, and he is

0:22:11.760 --> 0:22:14.480
<v Speaker 3>certainly a lightning rod for that. And to your point

0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:17.080
<v Speaker 3>about the Keith Lee video, if I was good enough

0:22:17.080 --> 0:22:18.720
<v Speaker 3>at doing this type of stuff I would have so

0:22:18.760 --> 0:22:20.920
<v Speaker 3>many of these cooked up already. When he comes down

0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:24.920
<v Speaker 3>the slide with the styrofoam like takeaway container full of

0:22:24.920 --> 0:22:27.040
<v Speaker 3>the two Prime drinks whatever that whatever drinks were in

0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 3>their Gator raye twitch, there are so many opportunities there

0:22:30.280 --> 0:22:32.800
<v Speaker 3>for like another two touchdowns he opens up the case.

0:22:32.800 --> 0:22:34.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, there's so many things you can do

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:36.520
<v Speaker 3>with that Dolphins win as a w comes out of

0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:39.800
<v Speaker 3>the styrofoam container. I'd love to see somebody more talented

0:22:39.800 --> 0:22:42.960
<v Speaker 3>than me in that regard cook some of that stuff up. Kyle,

0:22:43.000 --> 0:22:45.120
<v Speaker 3>how do you think, because we've had this discussion before too,

0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:48.199
<v Speaker 3>I think even before, like you know, this concussion this

0:22:48.240 --> 0:22:50.919
<v Speaker 3>season and the comeback where that's when to me like

0:22:51.000 --> 0:22:53.320
<v Speaker 3>he took his game to a different level starting with

0:22:53.359 --> 0:22:56.280
<v Speaker 3>that Arizona Buffalo game, the two losses. But how do

0:22:56.320 --> 0:22:59.520
<v Speaker 3>you feel like his skill set, you know, is maybe

0:22:59.720 --> 0:23:04.000
<v Speaker 3>even more valuable in a landscape that the NFL just

0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:06.520
<v Speaker 3>does not want teams going deep anymore. They want to

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:08.400
<v Speaker 3>put the roof on the top of the defense, and

0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:10.600
<v Speaker 3>this guy is so adept in the quick game and

0:23:10.760 --> 0:23:12.840
<v Speaker 3>the processing. I kind of feel like the way the

0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:16.120
<v Speaker 3>game is transitioning more towards that he might be even

0:23:16.160 --> 0:23:19.240
<v Speaker 3>more valuab valuable because of where he does thrive in

0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:20.240
<v Speaker 3>the short and quick game.

0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think the cycles of the NFL, it's certainly

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:30.760
<v Speaker 1>in a lot of too high presentation. I think this

0:23:30.800 --> 0:23:35.320
<v Speaker 1>is the highest amount of Cover two that has been

0:23:35.440 --> 0:23:40.199
<v Speaker 1>called in a season by all NFL teams since at

0:23:40.240 --> 0:23:44.919
<v Speaker 1>least twenty twenty. I think Cover three is at the

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:48.359
<v Speaker 1>lowest point it's been since at least twenty nineteen. So

0:23:48.560 --> 0:23:51.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean that one high versus two high shell. And look,

0:23:51.119 --> 0:23:54.399
<v Speaker 1>maybe the Dolphins are single handedly responsible for this, because

0:23:54.400 --> 0:23:58.640
<v Speaker 1>if you look at individual opponent frequency of cover two

0:23:58.840 --> 0:24:00.879
<v Speaker 1>called the Dolphins, I think they have like three of

0:24:00.880 --> 0:24:04.160
<v Speaker 1>the top six individual games this season of highest percentage

0:24:04.160 --> 0:24:05.960
<v Speaker 1>of Cover two that's been called against him this season.

0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:08.800
<v Speaker 1>So you put out on tape for two years the

0:24:08.800 --> 0:24:12.439
<v Speaker 1>explosive playability with the speed, and you have to adapt

0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:16.840
<v Speaker 1>or die, and you've seen the offense stylistically adapt with

0:24:16.880 --> 0:24:20.520
<v Speaker 1>more complimentary players, and he's at the point now where

0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:23.239
<v Speaker 1>I feel like if you want to live in the

0:24:23.240 --> 0:24:26.679
<v Speaker 1>world where you're going to give him two high shelves

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:28.040
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of Cover two and a lot of

0:24:28.040 --> 0:24:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Tampa two which you've seen a lot of, and a

0:24:29.800 --> 0:24:32.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of Drop eight trying to flood zones and force

0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:36.320
<v Speaker 1>him make quick decisions. He'll make quick decisions if you

0:24:36.440 --> 0:24:38.680
<v Speaker 1>want to pressure him. You know, that's where I think

0:24:38.720 --> 0:24:41.359
<v Speaker 1>you see the still see the ability to hit guys

0:24:41.359 --> 0:24:44.760
<v Speaker 1>against main coverage and pressure situation on time and move

0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:46.399
<v Speaker 1>the launch point in the process like he did on

0:24:46.400 --> 0:24:48.400
<v Speaker 1>the touchdown pass and they got I had a situational

0:24:48.480 --> 0:24:51.240
<v Speaker 1>fourth down in the low red zone. So it's all

0:24:51.240 --> 0:24:53.520
<v Speaker 1>part of just like building out your skill set. And

0:24:53.600 --> 0:24:57.280
<v Speaker 1>I think that's really where he's at and the strengths

0:24:57.320 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 1>of it. So long as he makes good decisions to

0:24:59.440 --> 0:25:02.640
<v Speaker 1>protect him himself, I think you're going to play well

0:25:02.920 --> 0:25:06.560
<v Speaker 1>in any number of situations or whatever the coverage trends

0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:09.160
<v Speaker 1>are across the league and hopefully for a long long time.

0:25:09.200 --> 0:25:12.359
<v Speaker 1>And you know, back to the detractor comment real quick,

0:25:12.440 --> 0:25:14.480
<v Speaker 1>like the thing I see now is all he's a

0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:16.840
<v Speaker 1>screen marcher. He threw two screens on the game winning drive.

0:25:16.880 --> 0:25:18.720
<v Speaker 1>It's like did we just forget what happened last year

0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:21.520
<v Speaker 1>like we always did, was throw the ball last two

0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Like the last two years, he was like number one

0:25:24.040 --> 0:25:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and twenty plus yard area or throws for like completion

0:25:26.960 --> 0:25:32.720
<v Speaker 1>percentage over expectation and passer rating at just just yeah.

0:25:32.920 --> 0:25:34.400
<v Speaker 1>And you know who else is a little a dot

0:25:34.800 --> 0:25:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Mahomes yeahs of all time could not bring myself

0:25:39.560 --> 0:25:43.719
<v Speaker 1>to care less about super efficient passing offenses and being

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:45.359
<v Speaker 1>able to move the ball and score a lot of points.

0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:47.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, whoa, whoa? What was me right? You have a

0:25:47.280 --> 0:25:47.720
<v Speaker 2>great offense.

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Let's let's go ahead and get back into the college

0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:51.280
<v Speaker 3>game here, because that's why I always have you on

0:25:51.320 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 3>the show here every single Friday. But we don't have

0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:56.160
<v Speaker 3>any games this week besides the aforementioned Army and Navy game.

0:25:56.320 --> 0:25:58.600
<v Speaker 3>Let's go ahead and start with this, Kyle, because for

0:25:58.640 --> 0:26:01.720
<v Speaker 3>as long as I can remember, it was always Shrine

0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Bowl was ahead of the Senior Bowl. They would play

0:26:04.119 --> 0:26:06.400
<v Speaker 3>it at the Tropicana Field, and I loved the aesthetic

0:26:06.480 --> 0:26:09.560
<v Speaker 3>of that game and that that dump of a building,

0:26:09.880 --> 0:26:12.639
<v Speaker 3>and you would kind of get like a graduation portion

0:26:12.720 --> 0:26:14.600
<v Speaker 3>of that game to the Senior Bowl from guys that

0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:17.000
<v Speaker 3>perform really well, but now the game is out in

0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:17.639
<v Speaker 3>Las Vegas.

0:26:17.680 --> 0:26:18.880
<v Speaker 2>If I'm not mistaken, it's the.

0:26:18.840 --> 0:26:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Same thing in Arlington now, oh it moved yeah, okay, yeah, Texas,

0:26:23.960 --> 0:26:25.440
<v Speaker 1>all right, so that makes sense.

0:26:25.480 --> 0:26:28.200
<v Speaker 2>And then if it's the same weekend as Senior bull.

0:26:28.240 --> 0:26:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Or yeah, so the game, the Senior Bowl game is

0:26:31.280 --> 0:26:35.480
<v Speaker 1>on the Saturday, the last Saturday, and the Shrine Game

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:39.960
<v Speaker 1>is like three days beforehand, on that Thursday, two days

0:26:39.960 --> 0:26:42.679
<v Speaker 1>beforehand on that Thursday. So they're right on top of

0:26:42.680 --> 0:26:45.040
<v Speaker 1>each other. So they want to compete. The Shrine Bowl

0:26:45.040 --> 0:26:46.360
<v Speaker 1>wants to compete with the Senior Bowl.

0:26:46.440 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm curious how you think that could impact All Star

0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:53.040
<v Speaker 3>weekend and how scouting absorbs All Star weekend because we've

0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:56.879
<v Speaker 3>already seen basically the entire Colorado Buffalo draft contingency is

0:26:56.920 --> 0:26:57.840
<v Speaker 3>going to the Shrine Bowl.

0:26:57.880 --> 0:26:58.120
<v Speaker 4>Man.

0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the competition is good for everyone. I think that's

0:27:04.119 --> 0:27:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the first thing. I think the intensity of having it

0:27:12.119 --> 0:27:15.920
<v Speaker 1>be a good thing to have more exposure and more

0:27:15.960 --> 0:27:18.520
<v Speaker 1>time on task. And now the fact that they're starting

0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:20.440
<v Speaker 1>to open up some of these All Star events to

0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:24.919
<v Speaker 1>non graduated players with diplomas, like you can be an

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:27.399
<v Speaker 1>underclassman or not have your degree. And now start to

0:27:27.400 --> 0:27:31.560
<v Speaker 1>participate in some of these games as well. The best

0:27:31.600 --> 0:27:33.359
<v Speaker 1>thing that you can do is a player from a

0:27:33.359 --> 0:27:37.080
<v Speaker 1>pre draft process standpoint is have as much exposure as

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:40.960
<v Speaker 1>you possibly can to NFL personnel and decision makers and

0:27:41.000 --> 0:27:45.080
<v Speaker 1>scouts and those who are responsible for putting evaluation on

0:27:45.119 --> 0:27:46.400
<v Speaker 1>you to get you in the league in the right

0:27:46.440 --> 0:27:48.680
<v Speaker 1>spot to give you the best chance to be successful.

0:27:49.400 --> 0:27:54.040
<v Speaker 1>So the increased I think profile of that is a

0:27:54.080 --> 0:27:58.719
<v Speaker 1>good thing. And you know how Jim and Eric, who

0:27:58.840 --> 0:28:03.320
<v Speaker 1>run those two events effectively put together their teams. You

0:28:03.320 --> 0:28:05.480
<v Speaker 1>know that they've got great people around them. I know

0:28:05.520 --> 0:28:09.359
<v Speaker 1>people want staffs for both of those events, and I

0:28:09.400 --> 0:28:14.800
<v Speaker 1>am here for all competition that forces you as an

0:28:14.840 --> 0:28:18.199
<v Speaker 1>event to be better because I know there's focus on

0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 1>like player quality of experience. And it used to be

0:28:21.800 --> 0:28:24.800
<v Speaker 1>just like the Combine where we'd sit here and we'd

0:28:24.880 --> 0:28:27.320
<v Speaker 1>run you through the meat grinder with six am to

0:28:27.480 --> 0:28:30.320
<v Speaker 1>ten pm with meetings and workouts and bench press and

0:28:30.800 --> 0:28:32.360
<v Speaker 1>we do that for four days and then you got

0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:33.800
<v Speaker 1>to go out and do your on field testing and

0:28:33.840 --> 0:28:35.159
<v Speaker 1>we want to see if we could break you. And

0:28:35.440 --> 0:28:40.720
<v Speaker 1>it's less about that more and it's more there's more

0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 1>player resources that are forwarded to the players at these events,

0:28:43.560 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and you still get some of that at the combine,

0:28:46.000 --> 0:28:48.320
<v Speaker 1>but you don't get it double dipped with some of

0:28:48.360 --> 0:28:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the craziness that you used to. I think one of

0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:54.000
<v Speaker 1>the best things that's come out of all of this

0:28:54.080 --> 0:28:56.320
<v Speaker 1>is both events that have kind of done away with

0:28:56.400 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 1>like public weigh ins, which you know, and that could

0:28:59.560 --> 0:29:01.000
<v Speaker 1>be a very young, comfortable thing for a player to

0:29:01.000 --> 0:29:03.560
<v Speaker 1>walk up on stage and look out into the audience

0:29:03.600 --> 0:29:06.040
<v Speaker 1>and you see all these eyes looking at you, and

0:29:06.040 --> 0:29:10.120
<v Speaker 1>you're wearing some spandex bottom half and that's it to

0:29:10.160 --> 0:29:12.360
<v Speaker 1>step one and get your height and weight taken and

0:29:12.400 --> 0:29:15.040
<v Speaker 1>your ring span take Like it's this kind of ridiculous stuff.

0:29:15.800 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>So doing away with things like that, making it a

0:29:18.840 --> 0:29:21.760
<v Speaker 1>better experience for the players, that more exposure, I think

0:29:21.840 --> 0:29:23.480
<v Speaker 1>that's where the biggest win happens.

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:26.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you sold me, man, I don't No one needs

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:28.720
<v Speaker 3>that meat market. I mean it's ridiculous. That's a great point.

0:29:29.160 --> 0:29:30.680
<v Speaker 3>Never need to see that for anybody, And I feel

0:29:30.680 --> 0:29:33.040
<v Speaker 3>bad for anybody that had to experience doing that. How

0:29:33.040 --> 0:29:34.920
<v Speaker 3>about this draft, man, because as we put a bow

0:29:34.960 --> 0:29:37.760
<v Speaker 3>on the regular season in college football, you know, I

0:29:38.680 --> 0:29:42.000
<v Speaker 3>think the quarterback, how you feel about the quarterback position

0:29:42.160 --> 0:29:45.800
<v Speaker 3>kind of, I suppose projects how people view this draft class.

0:29:45.840 --> 0:29:48.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm curious where you think this class stands up from

0:29:48.080 --> 0:29:51.640
<v Speaker 3>years past, where you think the strongest positions are, and

0:29:51.680 --> 0:29:53.120
<v Speaker 3>just kind of I guess give us the lay of

0:29:53.160 --> 0:29:54.760
<v Speaker 3>the land of what this draft looks like to you

0:29:55.080 --> 0:29:57.000
<v Speaker 3>as we sit here on December thirteenth.

0:29:57.160 --> 0:29:59.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think some of the best positions in this

0:29:59.680 --> 0:30:03.640
<v Speaker 1>class or positions that maybe aren't necessarily your most stereotypical

0:30:05.200 --> 0:30:09.040
<v Speaker 1>premium positions. I really like this safety class a lot.

0:30:10.040 --> 0:30:13.560
<v Speaker 1>I like Malachi Starks from Georgia. I'll have two other

0:30:13.600 --> 0:30:17.080
<v Speaker 1>players at safety in the top thirty two, and that's

0:30:17.240 --> 0:30:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Xavier Wats from Notre Dame. He's got twelve interceptions the

0:30:19.600 --> 0:30:23.400
<v Speaker 1>last two years. And that's Kamari Ramsey from USC who's

0:30:23.400 --> 0:30:27.040
<v Speaker 1>a retort sophomore transferred over from UCLA. You get your

0:30:27.080 --> 0:30:29.920
<v Speaker 1>eyes on those players and it's very easy to like

0:30:29.960 --> 0:30:31.600
<v Speaker 1>the skill sets that they bring to the table. I

0:30:31.680 --> 0:30:34.520
<v Speaker 1>think this is a loaded group of pass rushers, guys

0:30:34.560 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 1>on the edge, some guys they can play on the interior.

0:30:36.240 --> 0:30:39.320
<v Speaker 1>I think the defensive interior is not quite as deep

0:30:39.440 --> 0:30:43.320
<v Speaker 1>as what the edge group is, but the defensive front

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:46.880
<v Speaker 1>has a lot of good quality options. I don't think

0:30:46.920 --> 0:30:49.520
<v Speaker 1>it's a great quarterback class. I don't think it's a

0:30:49.520 --> 0:30:51.960
<v Speaker 1>great wide receiver class. I think it's a really compelling

0:30:52.040 --> 0:30:54.600
<v Speaker 1>running back and tight end class. Like all of the

0:30:54.880 --> 0:30:58.920
<v Speaker 1>non traditional premium positions are where I think there's above

0:30:59.000 --> 0:31:04.760
<v Speaker 1>average to significantly above average quality options in this class,

0:31:05.320 --> 0:31:08.040
<v Speaker 1>and I think that will be really fascinating to see.

0:31:08.480 --> 0:31:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Every year the league kind of tells you something they

0:31:10.760 --> 0:31:13.440
<v Speaker 1>think about that with how they choose to spend in

0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 1>free agency, right, Like, look at all the teams last

0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:19.760
<v Speaker 1>year that spent crazy on guards in free agency, and

0:31:19.880 --> 0:31:23.200
<v Speaker 1>you know there was some tackles, but into your offensive line.

0:31:23.480 --> 0:31:24.840
<v Speaker 1>You look at a lot of the guys that got

0:31:24.920 --> 0:31:28.600
<v Speaker 1>drafted on Day two early Day three, the vast majority

0:31:28.600 --> 0:31:31.320
<v Speaker 1>of those guys like didn't win starting jobs this year

0:31:31.320 --> 0:31:35.360
<v Speaker 1>across the league. So really fascinating to see. How Like,

0:31:35.400 --> 0:31:37.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it's a great tackle class. I think

0:31:37.720 --> 0:31:40.600
<v Speaker 1>most of the tackles that are up at the top

0:31:40.640 --> 0:31:44.560
<v Speaker 1>of the class either have questions. Whether that's Will Campbell,

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:47.000
<v Speaker 1>who I think is a guard, whether that's Josh Simmons

0:31:47.000 --> 0:31:49.080
<v Speaker 1>at Ohio State who's coming off of a torn acl

0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:53.120
<v Speaker 1>whether that's Cameron Williams who's a super young and inexperienced player.

0:31:53.520 --> 0:31:57.000
<v Speaker 1>There's just a lot of holes and resumes at that

0:31:57.080 --> 0:31:59.560
<v Speaker 1>spot that has med a little apprehensive to buy all

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:00.160
<v Speaker 1>the way in on that.

0:32:00.800 --> 0:32:02.960
<v Speaker 3>That's interesting because I remember Chris Greer a couple of

0:32:03.000 --> 0:32:05.880
<v Speaker 3>years back talking about like having a two year snapshot

0:32:06.240 --> 0:32:08.840
<v Speaker 3>of the draft and being privy to what's coming down

0:32:08.880 --> 0:32:11.240
<v Speaker 3>the pipeline, and that almost kind of tracks to the

0:32:11.240 --> 0:32:13.800
<v Speaker 3>Patrick Paul selection when we didn't need a left tackle

0:32:13.920 --> 0:32:15.720
<v Speaker 3>last year, but you get him in the pipeline, you

0:32:15.800 --> 0:32:18.160
<v Speaker 3>get him developed to take over for Toron Armstead in

0:32:18.200 --> 0:32:21.000
<v Speaker 3>the future where there's maybe a bit of a weaker

0:32:21.000 --> 0:32:23.200
<v Speaker 3>interior offensive line class to come back this year, maybe

0:32:23.240 --> 0:32:25.320
<v Speaker 3>it's better this time around. So I think that kind

0:32:25.320 --> 0:32:28.040
<v Speaker 3>of tracks too, which the positions you rattle off and

0:32:28.080 --> 0:32:29.600
<v Speaker 3>like you to your point, we'll see you know, so

0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:31.800
<v Speaker 3>much can change between now in March and then to

0:32:31.840 --> 0:32:33.400
<v Speaker 3>April off the draft, but it seems like those are

0:32:33.400 --> 0:32:36.600
<v Speaker 3>some positions Miami could be needing when the season comes

0:32:36.600 --> 0:32:39.000
<v Speaker 3>to an end. Here, So really interesting stuff there. Let's

0:32:39.000 --> 0:32:40.840
<v Speaker 3>go ahead and close with this, Kyle. We have the

0:32:40.880 --> 0:32:44.080
<v Speaker 3>college football Playoff It's been much bandied about. I would

0:32:44.120 --> 0:32:46.800
<v Speaker 3>love to have seen Alabama and Miami in the playoff.

0:32:46.840 --> 0:32:47.720
<v Speaker 2>We will now get that.

0:32:48.000 --> 0:32:49.880
<v Speaker 3>I want to see Cam Warden, Jayaln Milroll play a

0:32:49.880 --> 0:32:52.560
<v Speaker 3>big important football games, but it's not gonna happen. Which

0:32:52.600 --> 0:32:55.440
<v Speaker 3>matchups in the first round for you are most intriguing

0:32:55.480 --> 0:32:57.760
<v Speaker 3>from a scouting perspective, Kyle.

0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Can I can I go off the board and go

0:33:00.240 --> 0:33:02.360
<v Speaker 1>with a couple of non playoff.

0:33:03.080 --> 0:33:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Are they gonna play?

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:04.040
<v Speaker 4>Though?

0:33:05.360 --> 0:33:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Well, we know the pop Tar Bowl? All the Kynes

0:33:07.360 --> 0:33:10.120
<v Speaker 1>guys are gonna play. They are they already? Yeah? Cam

0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Cam came out and said he was gonna play. All

0:33:11.600 --> 0:33:14.120
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado guys said that they were gonna playp Tar Bowl.

0:33:16.480 --> 0:33:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Is that what's called?

0:33:17.240 --> 0:33:17.360
<v Speaker 3>Though?

0:33:17.600 --> 0:33:19.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought that was just like the like the pop

0:33:19.160 --> 0:33:21.840
<v Speaker 1>like you know the pop Tark. There is something like

0:33:21.920 --> 0:33:25.520
<v Speaker 1>pop Tart Bowl. Yes, they have the best mascot in

0:33:25.560 --> 0:33:27.280
<v Speaker 1>all football. I mean, well, I don't know if you

0:33:27.320 --> 0:33:29.880
<v Speaker 1>saw it with the pop talk that that went down

0:33:29.880 --> 0:33:31.440
<v Speaker 1>in the toaster for the halftime show.

0:33:31.760 --> 0:33:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Who's the best part about the whole Bull season?

0:33:33.680 --> 0:33:38.200
<v Speaker 1>The UH South Carolina Illinois matchup in the Citrus Bowl

0:33:38.440 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 1>on New Year's Eve is one that I really like.

0:33:42.200 --> 0:33:45.960
<v Speaker 1>There's some young talent that's not draft eligible. South Carolina

0:33:46.000 --> 0:33:50.200
<v Speaker 1>has a quarterback, Leonora Sellers, who is a freak athlete.

0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:54.520
<v Speaker 1>He's got some Anthony Richardson jeans to him as a

0:33:54.560 --> 0:33:58.280
<v Speaker 1>player that they also South Carolina has the Bronco ne

0:33:58.360 --> 0:34:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Girsky Award winner this year, a Canard, another one of

0:34:01.080 --> 0:34:05.800
<v Speaker 1>those edge rushers who are impressive in this draft class.

0:34:05.840 --> 0:34:09.080
<v Speaker 1>They also have Dylan Stewart, the freshman phenom that they

0:34:09.120 --> 0:34:14.960
<v Speaker 1>have there. So that's a group of talent that if

0:34:15.000 --> 0:34:17.520
<v Speaker 1>they play, and not all of them will play, but

0:34:17.640 --> 0:34:19.680
<v Speaker 1>if they do play and they make the decision to play,

0:34:19.680 --> 0:34:24.759
<v Speaker 1>that's a bowl matchup that I find particularly compelling. I

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:28.040
<v Speaker 1>don't think we can thumb our nose at Alabama Michigan

0:34:28.040 --> 0:34:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and the rely Quest Bowl. You'll get some showcase of

0:34:31.480 --> 0:34:37.440
<v Speaker 1>talent in that group. Obviously, Michigan from a defensive standpoint,

0:34:37.760 --> 0:34:40.440
<v Speaker 1>you've already had Mason Graham who's declared for the draft.

0:34:41.520 --> 0:34:44.520
<v Speaker 1>But Alabama from trench guys and guys that have been

0:34:44.560 --> 0:34:47.080
<v Speaker 1>long tenured guys there, maybe they're looking to end their

0:34:47.280 --> 0:34:51.160
<v Speaker 1>tenure on a high note and get a win against Michigan.

0:34:51.760 --> 0:34:53.440
