Right, Buck, let's let's we also top twenty 22 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: five man. Uh, college football is around the court. Some 23 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: interesting nuggets in that. We'll get there. Let's get to 24 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: the latest news, though. Start things off with a name 25 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: we're all familiar with. Adrian Peterson and the Washington Redskins 26 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: have agreed to a deal. He's going to continue on 27 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: the playback. I think the question is is pretty obvious. 28 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: Is there is there anything left? And is this a 29 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: good fit? I mean, they need a physical, early down 30 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: running back. I don't know if anything is left for 31 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson. I mean, he certainly would qualify because he 32 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: is a run heavy back. He's a guy who can 33 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: help him in the run game. But I just don't 34 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: know how much juice left. He had that one hundred 35 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: yeard game with the Cardinals when he first signed with 36 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: them after be coming over from the New Orleans Saints. 37 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: But I mean, can't we expect him to be a 38 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: thousand yard rusher. I don't think so, But maybe he 39 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: can give them something, some physicality and toughness. The one 40 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: thing that we do know he will play behind a 41 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: pretty good offensive line, which gives an older player a 42 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: chance to be successful, maybe, just maybe behind that offensive line, 43 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: he can give them a semblance of a running game 44 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: and allow Alex Smith to not have all the burden 45 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: of carrying that offense on his shoulders. I just don't know. 46 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: But I don't think he's really his own guy. So 47 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: anything anytime Adrian Peterson's shoulder pads are not parallel to 48 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, that you're not doing it right. 49 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: That's not what he does well. So it means to 50 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: see how they use him. Can he be a downhill 51 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: back for him? And and maybe they end up changing 52 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: a little bit what they're doing running wise to accommodate 53 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: his style. I don't know, Buck, I I he's such 54 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: a dynamic player and such a great player in NFL history. 55 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: But they say running backs they don't fall, they don't 56 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: go down to hill, Buck, they fall off a cliff, 57 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: And I think we might already fell off that cliff. 58 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: So hopefully I'm pleasantly surprised. Overall, it's pleasantly surprised and 59 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: this thing ends up working out. I'm just I don't 60 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: I can't say they have high hopes. Yeah, I don't 61 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: have high hopes. But but here's the thing, to to 62 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: be fair, in New Orleans, he never really got a 63 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: chance to really get a heavy workload. And then in 64 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: Arizona the injuries kind of started happening and prevented him 65 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: to really showing his skills. And that's part of what 66 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: happens when you have an older player. They just a 67 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: beat up and they just can't sustain the level of 68 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: play because they're not available. We will see, maybe he's 69 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: healthy and available and right and maybe he can give 70 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,839 Speaker 1: them something. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if you see 71 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: a game or two early on. I just don't know 72 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: if you're gonna be able to sustain that for the 73 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: length of the season. All right, Other news here A J. 74 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: McCarron was hurt. Now he's not hurt. I mean, it's 75 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: just all up in the air here with this collarbone injury. 76 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: Thought that might do it for him, and now are saying, okay, 77 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 1: maybe not a hairline fracture, but he suspected to practice 78 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: once the soreness goes away. So that quarterback situation, when 79 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: you look with the Buffalo Bills, it's kind of murky. 80 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: Although I feel like we've been beating this drum for 81 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: a while now. Whether or not Josh Allen is ready 82 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: to play right away, you know, we can debate that. 83 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: But when you stack him up with now with an 84 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: injured McCarron and in Peterman, I know Peterman has put 85 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: up some decent numbers, but talent wise, it's just the 86 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: gap is so wide. Well, Josh Allen has played better 87 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: in the preseason than I even expected. He hasn't leoke 88 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: jittery and nervous. It didn't look like it was too 89 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: big for him. Some of the steaks he's made, Like 90 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: there's some of the things that he did at well. 91 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: I mean, but in terms of the spectacular plays, those 92 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: plays have shown out, shown up on tape. And so 93 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: when I look at this offense, you have Shady McCoy 94 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: and you really don't have any other established playmakers that 95 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: you really can count it count on on a week 96 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: by week basis. I think Josh Allen she be the starter. 97 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: I think they build the offense around him, find a 98 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: way to let him have success, and I think he 99 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: can move them down the field. There can be some 100 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: ugly moments, but also think they'll be plenty a while. 101 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: Please too, Yeah, I gotta give Let's give our guy 102 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: Jordan Palmer a little bit of credit here because some 103 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: of the mechanical things that we discussed on the run 104 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: up to the draft and that that they were working on, 105 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: we saw it in the pro day and went, Okay, 106 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: he's made some improvement. But let's see once you get 107 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: in game action does that carry over? And he's not 108 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: over striding. I think he's less violent with his overall delivery, 109 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: and I think those two things have led to improved accuracy. 110 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: And really the kind of the one goofy play that 111 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,480 Speaker 1: he's had through two weeks was on a fourth down call. 112 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: There was nothing there and he kind of had a 113 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: panic moment and through kind of a crazy pass and 114 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: everybody had their good laugh. But Josh Allen's played really well. 115 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: When you really look at the entirety of these first 116 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 1: two games, he has played really well. And the thing 117 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: that I would give Brian day Ball credit for, I 118 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: feel like he has controlled him by the way that 119 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: he has called the game. You've seen a lot of 120 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: quick rhythm passes, um a lot of things that are 121 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: kind of under ten to fifteen yards, so he's able 122 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: to kind of get the ball out and even though 123 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: he's late. He has enough armed talent that he can 124 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: fire it in there um after making a hesitation on 125 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: the read. And because of that, we haven't seen the turnovers. 126 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: We haven't seen him kind of make those bone head mistakes. 127 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see he used to start this week. 128 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: What does it look like when it gets into regular 129 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: season play and the speed is a little different and 130 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: they're more complexities to the defenses that he's facing. Uh 131 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: to quote Danny Green, who he said? What did he say? Who? 132 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: Who treats the third week of the preseason. I remember 133 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: what that was that Chicago Bears. Yeah, there was but that, 134 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: But he went back to it and said, because we 135 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 1: had played them in the week for season, So week 136 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: three the preseason, it's as real as it gets in 137 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: the preseason. So we'll get a chance to get a 138 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: chance to see Josh Allen and what that looks like. Yeah, 139 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: week one against the Baltimore Raven's not an easy to 140 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: start there, but he's gonna be the start. If he 141 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: doesn't fall flat in his face this week, he's gonna 142 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 1: be I think falls play here. It would have to 143 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: be an epic. It has to be like a Nathan 144 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: Peterman type performance because when you look at he needs 145 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 1: a Nathan Peter Murmber forms because I don't think he's 146 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: gonna I don't think they will let him throw three 147 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: or four picks in a game. That's the only way 148 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: that I can see Josh Allen not starting. When you 149 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: look at the first two games that he's put up, 150 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: he has been fine. The offense has moved under his direction. Um, 151 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: I think he deserves to be the starter. And I 152 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 1: know a J. McCarron is rushing trying to get back 153 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: in the game, but I think it's over. I think 154 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: Josh Allen is gonna be the starting quarterback, and I 155 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: think they started process of building around you know, quarterback. 156 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun. This is another topic for another 157 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: day once we get to the off season, but it's 158 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: gonna be an arms race once we get to next 159 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: off season with free agency. When you have teams like 160 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: the Jets, the Bills, the Cardinals, with all these rookie 161 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: quarterbacks this year, just gonna go out and throw crazy 162 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: money to try and build around them next at wide 163 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: receivers and running backs. It's gonna be a paid because 164 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: those teams are desperate to put around it. And when 165 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: everyone looks at the game plan that people had for 166 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: Philadelphia with Carson Wentz and what the Rams did surrounding 167 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: the Bears just did I mean like everyone is going 168 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 1: to follow that model. So yeah, the free agency frenzy 169 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: should be crazy for running back from uh wide receiver. 170 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: All let's get to some other news here. Josh Gordon. 171 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: Good to see he is back with the Cleveland Browns. 172 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: He's not gonna play in this preseason game coming up 173 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: this weekend, but he's back on campus, which is good 174 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: to see. Now, the question is what are you gonna 175 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: get from Josh Gordon When you look at him buck 176 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: and look at what he's done throughout his career when 177 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: he's actually been on the field. I don't think you 178 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: can question his ability. It's just a matter of keep 179 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: him out there. I mean, this dude came right off 180 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: the streets last year and almost had a hundred yard game. Uh, 181 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: that's kind of what he does. He's a terrific playmaker. 182 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: He's dynamic, he's explosive. He's a big body player on 183 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: the edge who can win with his size and physicality 184 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: and toughness, and then he has the ability to run away, 185 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: not a bad route runner. I think in this offense, 186 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: when you go back and look at what Todd Haley 187 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: is traditionally done with big receivers, He'll find a way 188 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: to get Josh Gordon plenty of catches, plenty of opportunities. 189 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: He did with croal Own, as he did Ank Wine 190 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: and Lara Fis Fitzgerald down in Arizona. He'll find a 191 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: way to make Josh go in a big play maker 192 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: for them. And now you start to see some excitement 193 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: here with this receiving corps. I don't think they need 194 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant, by the way, sidebar. When you get Josh 195 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: Gordon back, You've seen the emergence of Hollywood Higgins and 196 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: what he can do in Callaway. We know about his ability. 197 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry, I think the numbers are pretty good here 198 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: when you get when you get Gordon back. So I'm 199 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: anxious to see if that now the Jordan's the Gordon's back. 200 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: If that kind of slows down the whole Dez Bryant conversation, 201 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: I'll have to wait and see. All Right, let's get 202 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: to our let's get to our rookie parts. Sorry. Rookie 203 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: port presented by Castro Edge and let's start with what 204 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: we just saw, and that was Lamar Jackson for the 205 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. Wasn't pretty buck against against Indianapolis Colt seven 206 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: or fifteen for forty nine yards. I did have four 207 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: rushes for twenty six yards. Thoughts uh slow start. Got 208 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: off to a slow start when he came into the game, 209 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 1: missed his first four or five passes, was just off 210 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: the mark and he couldn't hit the strike zone, and 211 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: so it took him a long time to work into 212 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: the game and find a rhythm. And then when he 213 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 1: finally found a rhythm, he had a couple of moments, 214 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: but a lot of inconsistent throws. And what stood out 215 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: to me when I watched this performance, not only was 216 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: he off the mark, but I felt like they didn't 217 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: really script a plan to really help him out when 218 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,599 Speaker 1: it came to like playing to his strimps so or 219 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: trying to find a way to get us some easy 220 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: layups early. When I've seen the other guys Donald Baker, 221 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: um Rosen, those coaches have done a really good job 222 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: of trying to help him get off to a quick 223 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: start by having some easy throws in the script early 224 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: in the game. Plan. Yeah. To me, I think if 225 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: you're trying to develop Lamar Jackson, it's gonna be early 226 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: on in the game, especially screens. You're gonna get him 227 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: on the move and get him a little bit comfortable. 228 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: He just didn't settle in. It took him a while 229 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: to settle in there, and I thought his eyes were 230 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: dropping a lot seeing the mad it look. They didn't 231 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: have great protection, don't don't. Don't get this twisted here. 232 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: Their offensive light did not play well. But I did 233 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: see his eyes drop a little bit, and he was 234 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:48,599 Speaker 1: wanting to get out of there. I think if you 235 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: can get him comfortable on the move, and they're also 236 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: gonna slow down that rush a little bit, mixing some 237 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: screens early on, but man, they were pinning their ears 238 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: back and it wasn't pretty. Now. They were coming after 239 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: him and he was forced to play in a traditional sense, 240 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: and I don't think that's necessarily the best for him. Uh. 241 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: He can do some of the play action stuff, he 242 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: can do some of the boot movement pass stuff that 243 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: is normally associated with the West Coast offense. But I 244 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: think they have to do a really good job early. 245 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 1: He has to see. It's kind of in basketball he 246 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: has to get some layups through the hoop. Even if 247 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: some of those quick screens, flash screens, dump offs, those 248 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: first four or five passes that he throws in the game, 249 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: they need to be high percentage passes where he can go, Okay, 250 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: four for five, I'm hot, I'm getting in to the rhythm. Yeah, 251 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: it was. It was interesting. You know that, Uh, they're 252 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: not gonna run the same offense they ran with Joe Flacco, 253 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: with Lamar Jackson. Try and do that. I think they're 254 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: making a big mistake. So we'll see. It looks like 255 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco was definitely held off the charge. With the 256 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: way the marsh play in the preseason. It's gonna be 257 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: the Joe Flacco's run here as long as he plays well. 258 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: And look, I've been one of the biggest critics of 259 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco. Monday night, he was outstanding. He was terrific 260 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: running that offense, pushed the ball down the field. Um, 261 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: you felt like this offense was tailored to his skill set. 262 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: I mean they took a shot deep, they hit some crosses, 263 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: they hit you pull outside the numbers. He was fantastic. 264 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: Ten of Twill did a really good job. Led him 265 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: to a scoring drive Kenny continue to sustain. And the 266 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: one thing that we can say about Lamar Jackson's arrival 267 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: it is woken up Joe Flack. Yeah, maybe a good thing. 268 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: He smelled a coffee. He's awake and he's performing. Sometimes 269 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: competition will do that to everybody. Ages to see what 270 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 1: happens there. Let's let's roll through the rest of these 271 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: quarterbacks here quickly. H Baker Mayfield seven or thirteen seventy 272 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 1: five yards versus the Bills. Things I liked I saw 273 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: again good pocket movement from Baker. The one thing that's 274 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 1: uh interesting to me is that him getting away from 275 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: people though and really being able to use his legs 276 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: and really run with the football the stuff he did Oklahoma. 277 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 1: He can't do that at the NFL level. He's not 278 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: that athletic to pull that off. But movement within the pocket, vision, 279 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: working through progressions again, good things from Baker, Yeah, very 280 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: good things. He is is fitting well in this offense. Um. 281 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: He's done a pretty good job of getting the ball 282 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: to his playmakers. They've done a nice job of kind 283 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: of setting them up with some nice place. The thing 284 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: about it, as well as we can talk about Baker 285 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: Mayfield playing I think you see the difference between he 286 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: and Tyrod Taylor when they're on the field. Tyrod Taylor 287 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: just does He just has it the nuances understanding the position. 288 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: Because he's played so long in league, he still has 289 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: the edge with Baker Mayfield. Certainly, he's done himself a 290 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: good job. All Right's Sam Donald here with the Jets 291 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: aight of eleven sixty two yards, had an interception on 292 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: a fourth down play. I feel like I have I'm 293 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: the unofficial Sam Donald apologist on Twitter when when people 294 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 1: were saying, oh, he's just thinking and Duncan and I 295 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: actually put the numbers down there what Tom Brady did 296 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: in that same week where it was his first four yards, 297 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: five yards, seven yards, six yards, nine yards, he was 298 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: six of ten. He converted six of ten third downs 299 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: through two preseason games. So he's been efficient and he's 300 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: working with what he's got. Well. Now, I think they're 301 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: doing a really good job. And here's the thing that 302 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 1: I'm noticing when I'm watching all of these young quarterbacks, 303 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: with exception of Lamar Jackson, they're really opening up the 304 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: formation a lot of empty formation so they can recognize coverage, 305 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: a lot of quick routes tied to those formations, so 306 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: the ball can get out of their hands quickly and 307 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: you see them get into a nice rhythm, that ofteness 308 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: goes up and then they continue to compute it. But 309 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: of all the quarterback Sam Donald to me has looked 310 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: the best because when you watch him, he is able 311 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 1: to make plays inside the pocket. But also we've seen 312 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: some of the athleticism that we liked it as see, 313 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: and he's making plays outside of the pockets. So when 314 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: people were taking them to task for eight four eleven 315 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: sixty two yards and the interception, the interception was a 316 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 1: forced player on fourth down where it's fourth down you 317 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: have so he had to make a play and then 318 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: a for eleven. He has been very efficient and effective 319 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: getting the ball out of his hands. Look, he should 320 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: be the starting quarterback for the Jets, and I think 321 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: they'll start the building process from week one of the 322 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: regular seasons to the guy another quarterback we love this 323 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: draft class, Josh Rose, and I thought he had an 324 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 1: outstanding game. I went and watch that tape against the Saints. 325 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: Pocket movement, just the pure, the pure nous, the way 326 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: he plays a position, the climb up in the pocket, 327 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: the beautiful release, fitting balls and tight windows down in 328 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: the red zone area, being able to work through progressions, 329 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: hanging the pocket and deliver strikes. Uh. To me, it 330 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: was all good. Ten of sixteen hundred seven yards and 331 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: a touchdown versus the Saints. But I thought, just this 332 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 1: week's performance, when you stack it up with everybody else, 333 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 1: I thought Josh Rosen this week was the best. Josh 334 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: Rosen was terrific. Josh Rosen got the ball out of 335 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: his hand. Josh Rosen made the adjustment to playing behind 336 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: a shaky offensive line. Um. I felt like he just 337 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: continues to be efficient and effective. He has a rapport 338 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: with Christian kirk Uh that showed up. I like how 339 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: he's trending, and I think he used to benefit of 340 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: steel continue to sit behind Sam Bradford, who also was 341 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: outstanding in this game. Josh Rosen is going to be 342 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: a fantastic player in this league. Is just to take 343 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: him mad our time. He has to wait for his chance, 344 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: but I think when he has his chance, I think 345 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: he's gonna light it up. All right, went through the 346 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and again we took care of Josh down a 347 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: little bit earlier on the show. Let's roll through these 348 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: fast now, just a couple more. We got four more 349 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: players who wanted to highlight. Just from the rookies. James 350 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: Washington and Michael Gallup both did a phenomenal job as 351 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 1: pass catchers this week. James Washington going up playing above 352 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: the rim, high point in the football, working down the field. 353 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: And then gallop Uh made a couple of plays as 354 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: well for the Dallas Cowboys. He's gonna be a starter 355 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: for this FO. These are two plug and play starters. 356 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: The one thing we James Washington did a great job 357 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: of taking the top off the defense, does a great 358 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: job of winning down the field. These are the same 359 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: things he did at Oklahoma State. He is going to 360 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: be a nice addition to Antonio Brown and then having 361 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: ju Ju Smith Shuston on the outside. I think he's 362 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: gonna find a way to be a key contributor. Michael Gallup, 363 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: to me, is a number one receiver in Dallas. I 364 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: think he's going to take the Daz Bryant roll, coming in, 365 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: catching the balls over the middle, running to slam rous, 366 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: doing all the dirty work. I think he's terrific forward. 367 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: He has been a nice surprise for me. I think 368 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys gotta win and when they took Michael Gallant. Yeah. Look, 369 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: the numbers aren't great from last week, but you watch 370 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: the tape and just watch the way he's running routes, 371 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: creating separation. They need guys that can get away from people, 372 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: and uh, he's gonna give that to the Dallas Cowboys. 373 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: I'd be pretty excited about his future. Now, this is 374 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: an interesting thing. You want to touch on. Last two 375 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: rookies and then we'll move on here. Um Chris Warren 376 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: and Mike Boone undrafted running backs that have showed out 377 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: so far in the preseason. Both guys have shown out. 378 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: Chris Warren has been probably the most impressive running back 379 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: that I've seen in all the preseason. Last week he 380 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: had eighty six yards or maybe thirteen's. This week he 381 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: has a hundred yard game on a teen carries and 382 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: it's a steady Eddie production. He's physical, he's violent, he's explosive, 383 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: does a great job of understanding No One John Gruden 384 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: the way that I do. He is going to be 385 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: in the mix. Look for him to emerge in one 386 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: of those top backups behind Marshawn Lynch. Yeah, and Mike 387 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: Boone with the Minnesota Vikings, I've talked to two different 388 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: personnel directors in the last week that said, Hey, if 389 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: you look at this kid, but he's from from the Vikings, 390 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: he is bawling out. I'm gonna do a little video later. 391 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: I think he'll be on on Instagram. Right kind of 392 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: go over the top five rookies from the week, and uh, 393 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: and Mike Boone makes the list. Buck he was awesome. 394 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: I wasn't even looking for him when I was looking 395 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: at some of the things. I think I was watching 396 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: the safety. I was watching Ronnie Harrison for Jacksonville and 397 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, this must be the running back 398 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: everybody's talking about. The buzz is real. Uh, he's explosive. 399 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: He can catch the ball about the backfield. He was 400 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: a guy in high school who played wide receiver. He's 401 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: given a lot of credit to his high school coach 402 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: for teaching him how to play wide receiver. Makes him 403 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: a more effective running back in the passing game. But 404 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: then just watching him run the ball, he has nice vision, balance, 405 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 1: has the juice to get to the second level. Didn't 406 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: know much about him at Cincinnati, but man, they picked 407 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: up an undrafted free agent that should be a guy 408 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: that jumps into the mix. He can replace Jeric McKinnon 409 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: in that role, that third running back on their roster. 410 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,199 Speaker 1: All right, I lied, I said those the last two 411 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: running backs. But we can't get enough. We we we gotta 412 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about the big guys here. Quentin 413 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: Nelson and Mike McGlinchey teammates Notre Dame. They're off to 414 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: a great start for the Colts and the San Francisco 415 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: forty niners. And then Austin Corbett, thirty or overall picked 416 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 1: by Cleveland. He's done a phenomenal job stepping in as 417 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: a starter for the Cleveland Browns. So those three rookies 418 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: to me on the offensive line, hats off to them. 419 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: They're doing a great job. They're doing a great job. 420 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 1: These guys are coming into this fricky class has been 421 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: exactly what we thought. We thought some of the big 422 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 1: guys would have a chance to come in and make 423 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: their mark. Quinn Nelson has certainly done that. Mike McGlinchey 424 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: has been ver very good in San Francisco. Austin Corbett 425 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: is one that I'm surprised because I felt like he 426 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: was drafted a little early. But he looks like he's 427 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: holding his own man We saw Quentin Nelson wrestling with 428 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: Brandon Williams last night against the Baltimore Ravens. Did a 429 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: nice job. Mike McGlinchey. When I go and watch the 430 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: tape of him just holding down that right side. Now, 431 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: you've got pretty good bookends now for Jimmy Garoppolo to 432 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: keep him upright the way McGlinchey has has plugged and played, 433 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: and we've talked about it in the run up to 434 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: the draft. Notre Dame offensive lineman, big ten offensive lineman, 435 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: just seemed more ready to play right away at the 436 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: next level, and he's continuing on with that trend. And 437 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: then Austin Corbett, he got inside my top fifty. Maybe 438 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: want a little bit higher than I thought he would buck, 439 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 1: but he's a lot like the guy he's playing with 440 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: in Joe Patoni, another Nevada offensive lineman that played tackle. 441 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: You like the fact that you kick inside and play 442 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: guard if needed. So uh, the intelligence, the toughness, di versatility. 443 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: So far, so good for Austin Corbett, So far so good. 444 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: The Browns offense. They were able to run the ball 445 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: better against the Buffalo Bills. Part of his because corpor 446 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 1: was able to kind of control the outside the edges. 447 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: There you see carlos I being able to run effectively. 448 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: It has been a huge deal for them to be 449 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 1: able to be effective in that capacity. The offensive line 450 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: is coming together. Corporate is a big reason why. All right, 451 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for us. That was the rookie 452 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 1: report presented by Castrol Edge. We move on. Now we 453 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: did the rookies. Let's get to some super sophomores here. 454 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,199 Speaker 1: Guys were looking to have big years, breakout candidates, and 455 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: year number two, let's rip through him, Buck, We'll go 456 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: every other one. You start us off here with the 457 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: first one on the list. Dalvin Cook for the Minnesota Vikings, 458 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: showed last summer that he had the ability to be 459 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: a special player for them. His ability to run inside, 460 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: catch the ball out the backfield, and make big things happen. 461 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: We'll really add a spark to this offense. I think 462 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: he's an upgrade over what they played with last year 463 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: when they had let Tavis Murray doing the heavy lifting. 464 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: Look for Dalvin Cook to be terrific in this offense. 465 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna have Tosh Yard had great fit 466 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: there in that system. I'm gonna go next. Un Let's 467 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: let's go Pat Mahomes, the throw herd around the world. 468 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: Everybody talked about the deep ball he hit on to 469 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill, and to me, I don't know if he 470 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: I think he might just be bustproof buck. When you 471 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: look at what they have there and it's the three s. 472 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: Is the speed they have on this roster, the skill 473 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,959 Speaker 1: they have on this roster, and the scheme that they had, 474 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: it's set up for Pat Mahomes and he's playing well. 475 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: In the preseason. I know he had one peck, could 476 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: could have had another one down there in the red zone. 477 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: But the big plays are gonna come, chunk play after 478 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 1: chunk player. You're gonna see it this year with Pat Mahomes. Yeah, 479 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: you are gonna see it. Like this throw is ridiculous, 480 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: and he was up and down for for most of 481 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 1: the game, but then he found his way. And it's 482 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: these moments, these wild plays that have really captivated Andy 483 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: Reid and made him want to make the switch away 484 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: from Alex Smith. As they continue to can build the 485 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: scheme and tweak the scheme around his talents, I think 486 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: you'll see this offense be even more dynamic than it 487 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: was this season ago. Before you got next, I'm gonna 488 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: going with Mike Williams. You saw it like you saw 489 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: it up close in Personal l A Charges. Mike Williams. Look, 490 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: he may be listed fourth on the depth chart, but 491 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 1: he's rising like a bullet. I think his ability to 492 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 1: win these fifty fifty balls what Philip Rivers eventually going 493 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: to light when he was at his best, Philip Rivers, 494 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 1: when he had Malcolm Floyd and Vincent Jackson and all 495 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 1: those guys, they had big receivers on the outside that 496 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: you could throw it up to and you can depend 497 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: on them to win the fifty balls. You have Keenan Allen, 498 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: then you got Mike Williams, and the Charges may score 499 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 1: a ton of points in the past. Yeah, he's gonna 500 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 1: be a big time red zone weapon. Antonio Gates had 501 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 1: filled that red zone uh a void for so long 502 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: for this football team, and that's got those balls gotta 503 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 1: go somewhere. I keep it on big number eighty one 504 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: right there. Chris Godwin, another wide receiver. A lot of 505 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: talk about him, just flat out beat out to Sean 506 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: Jackson with what he's done here in the preseason. Buck, 507 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: we know he's a good route runner. Coming at Penn state, 508 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: the size, the toughness, the natural comparison existed when he 509 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,719 Speaker 1: came out to Allen Robinson. We've seen Allen Robinson can 510 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: do unhealthy. This is gonna be a big breakout here 511 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: for Chris Godwin. It could be a nice breakout year. 512 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: And everyone needs someone that can do the dirty working. 513 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: Right now. Chris Godwin can do all the dirty work, 514 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: all the dirty routes, they go inside, inside the numbers. 515 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: The toughness. Did you see him getting beat up with 516 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: the linebacker and stuff. He doesn't flinch. Dependable chain mover 517 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: and that is what this offense needs. You have a 518 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: number one in Mike Evans. You have a guy that 519 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: can take the top off into Sean Jackson. Chris Godwin 520 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: is the guy that is the chain mover. All right, 521 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: let's let's keep things moving here. A couple more David 522 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: and Joe Coup Uh star of hard now. Uh. Look, 523 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: he's he's somebody. The athleticism we knew about it. Caught 524 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,199 Speaker 1: so many screens, a lot of tight end screens at 525 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: Miami when he was coming out of college. But you 526 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: knew what he could do after the catch was special. 527 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 1: And also again another guy can play above the rim. 528 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 1: When you get down into the red zone, you're gonna 529 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: see more of that here with the Cleveland Browns, I 530 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: think this could be I don't know. Eight to ten 531 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: touchdowns would not shock me. Here for big number eighty 532 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 1: five when't shocked me. He has been very, very impressive, 533 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 1: and I know he struggled the day on hard knocks 534 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: like catching passes, but in game action he's been pretty solid. 535 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: He is a matchup nightmare, does a great job of 536 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: snagging balls at the high point, and he can run 537 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: away from coverage. Everyone is looking for a mismatch player 538 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: at that position, and Joe who could be that guy. 539 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: I'll get us to the last one here, Cheeto or 540 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: a buddy Cheeto Woozier there with the Cowboys. Cheeto Woozier 541 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: has been as good as advertised. He is settling in 542 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: into that defense. We knew the toughness, we knew the 543 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 1: high football like you never seeing the ball skills, he 544 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: just looks like a perfect fit for what they want 545 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: to do. He can play man to man, but he 546 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: also has the awareness to be able to be effective 547 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: in his own makes plays. Do you see the one 548 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: hand tip to yourself interception Wouziers trending in the right direction. 549 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a really good player. I think it's 550 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: Dallas Defense. The team you say does not get enough attention, 551 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 1: not enough attention. We're gonna talk about them. Can be 552 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: pretty good. It could be pretty good this year, a 553 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,400 Speaker 1: little better than people anticipated. Look, let's take a moment 554 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 1: to bring you a message from the National Highway Traffic 555 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: Safety Administration. Everybody knows about the risk of driving drunk. 556 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: You can get in the crash, people can get hurt, 557 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: people can't even get killed. But let's take a moment 558 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: to look at some surprising statistics. Almost twenty nine people 559 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: in the United States die every day in alcohol impaired 560 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: vehicle crashes. That's one person every fifty minutes. Even though 561 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: drunk driving fatalities have fallen by third in the last 562 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: three decades, drunk driving crashes still claim more than ten 563 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 1: thousand lives each year. Many people are unaware that driving 564 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: while high can be just as dangerous, and of drivers 565 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: killed and crashes tested positive for drugs. Not so harmless 566 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: after all, is it? And get this. From two thousand 567 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: seven to two thousand fifteen, marijuana use amongst drivers killed 568 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: and crabs doubled. The truth is driving while high is deadly, 569 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: So stop kidding yourself. If you're impaired from alcohol or drugs, 570 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: don't get behind the wheel. If you feel different, you 571 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 1: drive different, Drive high, get a d u y, drive sober, 572 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: or get pulled over. All right, this is what we've 573 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: all been waiting for in this episode. Because everybody loves 574 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 1: the list, we say rank it and bank it right. 575 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: Rank you can bank the numbers. Uh top five AD 576 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: dreshers heading into the season, Buck, that's your job. Fire away, 577 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: far away at number five. Look, man, I am all 578 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 1: in l a with the charges. How about Joey bos 579 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: number five, number five, number five. When you think about 580 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: Joey Bosa and what he brings, he is a technician 581 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:44,360 Speaker 1: with outstanding hand skills and placement, relentless workhorse warrior coming 582 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: off the edge. This guy's terrific has a part in 583 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,959 Speaker 1: the Melvin Ingram Debt also deserves to mention Joey Boss 584 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: number five for me at number four right down the road. 585 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: How about Khalil Mac from the Oakland Raiders. You talk 586 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: about a physical force, a wrecking shop coming the edge, 587 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: Well that's Kalil Mac. He is hard to slow down 588 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: because he plays with leverage power. He's explosive off the edge. 589 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: He can run you down with his speed. Whenever he 590 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: shows up to Oakland, they certainly could have his number 591 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: four on the list. How about number three, Everthing Griffin 592 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: for the Minnesota Vikings. He is a guy that has 593 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: worked himself into being a dominant player off the edge, 594 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: outstanding the first step, quickness, nice get off finishes, has 595 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 1: an array of move inside and outside. He is hard 596 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: to stop on the edge. That's why he's number three 597 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: on my list. At number two, I can't believe the 598 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 1: New England Pages let this guy go. A couple of 599 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: years ago traded him to the Arizona Cardinals. He's been 600 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: nothing short of spectacular for the Cardinals. Last year led 601 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 1: the league in sacks, Phenomenal off the edge, quickness, bursts, 602 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 1: hand skills, combative, relentless, motor love. What he brings challenge 603 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: Jones is number two and then number one the gold 604 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: standard for pass rushers Von Miller. Von Miller's get off 605 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: catlike quickness, burst, can attack you from either edge, can 606 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: win outsack and win with speed, power, can go inside, outside, spin, 607 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: move all of the moves that you want to see 608 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: from an elite pass rusher, von Miller delivers him and 609 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: von Miller to me the power. You mentioned it there 610 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: for a quick second. The power is very underrated with 611 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 1: Vaughan part of his game. All right, I gotta give 612 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: you a couple of snubs here, that's my job, and 613 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,239 Speaker 1: you mentioned one of them there in Melvin ingra I'm 614 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: gonna start with Marcus Lawrence for the Dallas Cowboys. He's 615 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: put himself right in the discussion as one of the 616 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: premier edge rushers in the league with what he did 617 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: last year. Speed to power not a problem for him. 618 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: Look at somebody's very instinctive and that is a finisher 619 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: at the top of his rush. I love his game 620 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,479 Speaker 1: and what he showed last year. And the other one 621 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: Melvin Ingram mentioned him just a minute ago here, Buck, 622 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 1: when you watch him up close and personal, get a 623 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: chance to do that now at practice, and then you 624 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: get a chance to do these preseason games. He's special man. 625 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: What he can do. He can play him off the ball. 626 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: He saw him down there on the goal line and 627 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 1: force a fumble. But as a rusher he is twitched 628 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: up and somebody have to account for when you have 629 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: him and boast opposite each other. I guess the best 630 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: hand in the league. It's the best hand him in 631 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: the league, without question. The way they're able to attack you. 632 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: Both guys are interchangeable in terms of the way that 633 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: they play. They went with speed power. They both are 634 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 1: technically sound, have great hands, and they both are high 635 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: motor players. Man, they're kind of coaches dreams, Melvin Ingram, 636 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,199 Speaker 1: Joey Bosa. They deserve to be on the list. All right, 637 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: let's get to some young guys here. I'll do the 638 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: top three rookie edge drushers and number three on the 639 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 1: list Rashine Green for the Seattle Seahawks. I think he 640 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: might be leading all rookies in six in the preseason. 641 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: Got a chance to see him up close last week. 642 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: Somebody at USC who battled ankle spring at a high 643 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: ankle spring pretty much the whole year. Still was productive 644 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: as a pass rusher. You're seeing the combination of length 645 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 1: that he has, quickness and versatility, can play and you 646 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: can kick him inside. He can rush from a three 647 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: technique over a guard as well. To me, he's a 648 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: He's a number three edge drusher among these rookies. Number 649 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: two is it honor or is it, Harold, that's for 650 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: you to decide, Mr Landry for the Tennessee Titans. But 651 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: the all time draft moment, by the way, on or 652 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: Landry anyways, Harold Landry, We've seen it in the preseason 653 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: as well. He can bend. We watched it as we 654 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: see here at Boston College. Just a natural ability to 655 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: be able to bend and wrap around the edge a 656 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: little bit like Vic Beasley in his ability to kind 657 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: of just work the perimeter there and get home with speed. 658 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: He's number two on the list and then number one, 659 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: the guy that was the top guy coming to the draft. 660 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna see it throughout the year. That's Bradley Chub 661 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: coming out of NC State joining up with your buddy 662 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 1: Von Miller on the opposite side. He's gonna have a 663 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 1: chance to see a lot of one on one's buck 664 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: and he has a lot of tricks in his bag. 665 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: Excellent hand fighter, can create speed or convert speed to power, 666 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: and he's somebody that just does not stop. I think 667 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: he's gonna be the premier rookie d dresser. Yeah. There 668 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: you see in the b row he's working with DeMarcus 669 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: where and DeMarcus where it can certainly show him some 670 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: some tools to take his game up a not playing 671 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: with his hands, being able to come off the edge. 672 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 1: Bradley chup to me is a mix of von Miller 673 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: and Khalil Mack because he can change his game at 674 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: a moment. No this he and von Miller gonna give 675 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: people headaches in the f C West. All right, let's 676 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: pivot here and let's get to the college game here 677 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: because I wanted to hit on this, this eight pe pole. 678 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: We have the the first a po pole, which to 679 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: me gets me excited. We've got some football games this weekend, Buck, 680 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: some college football. I'm not the best games, but we've 681 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: we've got college football we can be excited about. Let's 682 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: take a look here at the preseason top twenty five pole. 683 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: And when you look there at number one, you see Alabama, 684 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 1: no surpriser, Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, Wisconsin, Ohio State. That's your 685 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: top five, followed by Washington, Oklahoma, Miami, Auburn, and Penn State. 686 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: That is your top ten. How about eleven through twenty, Buck, 687 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: here we go Michigan State, Notre Dame, Stanford, Michigan, U 688 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: s C A fifteen TCU West Virginia, Missippi State, Florida State, 689 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 1: and Virginia Tech rounds out of top twenty, and we're 690 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: finish up the top twenty five U c F at 691 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: twenty one, Boise State twenty two, Texas twenty three, Oregon 692 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: twenty four, l S U twenty five. All right, let's 693 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: start right there at the top. Buck, your thoughts on 694 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: Alabama being ranked number one? My only question, why is 695 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: this not unanimous? They not a unanimous number one? Well, 696 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Clipson deserves to be in their conversation, 697 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: but Alabama has everything the only things of the last year. 698 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: But they did, but that was last year, different year, 699 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: different years. They just reload. Like Nick Saban said, what 700 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: do you think we do? We just just yes, yes. 701 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: Right after they got a five star linebacker transfer from Washington. 702 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: That was literally right after that happens. That The biggest 703 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: issue for Alabama's who's going to be quarterback? Um, you know, 704 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 1: are they gonna go with the young guy and tour 705 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: Are they gonna go with Jalen Hurst who has won 706 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: a lot of games and been an SEC Offensive Player 707 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: of the Year in the past. They have to sort 708 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: that out. They're still trying to figure out who's going 709 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: to be the guy to take snaps. But it doesn't matter. 710 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: Those guys are just driving one of the best sports 711 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: cars that you can ever have. All they gotta do 712 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: is just drive it to the Winter Circle. This team 713 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: is loaded on offense, on defense. Wherever you're looking for 714 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: five star players, they have them, and they have a 715 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: ton of Hey, if you're if you're a coach out 716 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 1: there by the way, high school, junior, college, college, you 717 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: need to go listen to the podcast. It's origins podcast 718 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 1: by Jim Miller. He does with Nick Saban and you 719 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: kind of get a glimpse into that Alabama program. You 720 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: get a real glimpse into inside coach saman I'm never 721 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: betting against Alabama number one. Uh that that to me 722 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: was a no brainer. Clempson at number two there with 723 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: Dabbo bringing back that defensive linebuck. We talked about defensive 724 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: line and quarterback. If you're set there, you're in great 725 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: shape no matter what the level of competition. We know 726 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 1: about the defensive line. We'll see how they sort out 727 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: this quarterback situation. I mean, yeah, they have to sort 728 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: out the quarterback situation. But once again, like Alabama, they 729 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: have so much talent in other places that it really 730 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. The quarterback is not the driving force of 731 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: the team. The quarterback is really just a role player 732 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: that is just responsible for taking snaps, getting the ball 733 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: to the playmakers and make sure they don't mess it up. 734 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: This defense is going to be the determining factor how 735 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: far they go. They are loaded up front. I mean, 736 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: I would hate to disrespac Clempson say they have an 737 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: Alabama like But man, you talk about four guys that 738 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: could be mentioned and come off the board within the 739 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,719 Speaker 1: top fifty if they'd like to come out. They are 740 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: a very very talented squad. Yeah, and I'm I'm looking 741 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: here at Georgia number three and trying to figure out 742 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: where the losses are gonna come on the schedule Bucket. 743 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,239 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a it's pretty favorable for him. We'll 744 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: see at South Carolina week two. They get through that. 745 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: I think this team goes on a pretty good role 746 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: and I think there's an adjustment. So many young players. 747 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: They graduated so much to the National Football League, but 748 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: they recruited their butts off last year. I think you'll 749 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: see a lot of young guys and some stars emerged. 750 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 1: Number three. There I can't. I can't say I have 751 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: a problem with that. No, I don't have a problem 752 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,000 Speaker 1: with any of it. Their talent. They're in the championship 753 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: game a season ago, you got a quarterback battle, were 754 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: from just in fields. You have playmakers everywhere, a little 755 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: running back. It'll take them a while to kind of 756 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: settle in. But you're right, they have a favorable schedule. Man, 757 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see them in Alabama. Maybe duke 758 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: it out into SEC championship game. All right, give me 759 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: get me to a surprise here, something outside that top ten. 760 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I just feel like it's so disrespectful that 761 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: when you win a championship one year that you're not 762 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: automatically put into top Alabama's number one. No, no no, no, 763 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: you see if you cef oh the other nationals, the 764 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: national Yeah, they were undefeated, they went through the gauntlet, 765 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: They beat everybody that was on the schedule. They deserve 766 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: to have a little parade. They get license plate cover 767 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: and everything. Yeah, but I want to know right now, 768 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: no one and they got a quarterback that is that's 769 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: our dude. Though. By the way, if I was gonna 770 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 1: buy if I was gonna buy one college Jersey, which 771 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: never do because they leave, and you know it's just 772 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: not I would get the U. C F jersey with Milton, 773 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 1: that's our guy. I mean, I get there, but don't 774 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: buy jus. I've been told jerseys are for kids and women. No, no, no, no, 775 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 1: I I don't. I don't wear I don't. I don't 776 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: wear a jersey. I've I've got in trouble with that. 777 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: I want a radio station. And they talked about jerseys 778 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: and I said, look, if you know once you once 779 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: the uh was it once? You're older than the players. 780 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: No more hats. Yeah, no, you can't do the jersey. 781 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. But if I was going 782 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 1: to purchase the jersey, maybe it's maybe it's a display piece. 783 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: Uh mckensey Milliments are dude like him. I'm gonna go 784 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: with Texas at twenty three as I don't know if 785 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: it's a it's not really it's probably a properly uh 786 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: position ranking there for the long Horns. But I'm more 787 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: intrigued by this team maybe than any of the team, 788 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 1: just because when you watch the tape going through the 789 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: draft process, what they do defensively schematically, I loved I 790 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: loved it so now you know, they gotta get some 791 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: young guys up to speed and get them going. And 792 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: Tom Herman, we know about his reputation on the offensive 793 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 1: side of the ball. Didn't really happen last year. Year two. 794 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. My expectations are high. This is this 795 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: number twenty three number. I think at the end of 796 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 1: the year, I would not be shocked if Texas ended 797 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: up being a top ten team. And I'm probably on 798 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: my own in this opinion, but I just believe in 799 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: what they've gotten the coaching staff. I mean, I like 800 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 1: the coach I like how they want to play. I 801 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: just don't know if they have enough enough ammunition to 802 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: deal with some of those heavy hitters. Now, the interesting 803 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: thing would be can they play good enough defense in 804 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: that wild and wacky conference with the ball is flying 805 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: all over the yard? Uh, that is gonna be tough. 806 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: But I mean Tom Herman has been really good developing 807 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks throughout his time. He has a guy in Sam Ellinger, 808 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: who can they named him the starter so that that 809 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: compliss give him a litt swag. Um, they have to 810 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 1: be able to run the ball. If they can run 811 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: the football and play defense, that's gonna give me a chance. 812 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: All right, uh, fun little little college football discussion their 813 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: games coming up this weekend.
