He hopes that the guys when 130 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 8: they break next week will continue to maintain that and 131 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 8: then that way they can come back and be ready 132 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 8: to go for training camp. 133 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: Definitely, Yeah, Phil. 134 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: On Thursday, there's a lot of talk around, you know, 135 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 2: situational football, and you know how coach has really put 136 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 2: a big emphasis on you know, different end of game, 137 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 2: end of half situations during these OTA practices. You know, 138 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 2: we heard from Courtland Sutton about it, Josie Jewel, Gara Bowles, 139 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: what were your kind of I guess main takeaway from. 140 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 8: Well and we heard from Justin Simmons last week and 141 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 8: he said that, you know Sean Payton, the way he 142 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 8: is out there, he described it as educational, right, and 143 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 8: so we know that he's really focused on details and 144 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 8: wants to make sure that everybody's on the same page. 145 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 2: Trying to understand what's happening. Yeah, that's happening exactly. 146 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 8: And then today he was talking about, hey, we got 147 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 8: to go over situations where at the end of the game. 148 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 8: Maybe it'll pop up once every four weeks, maybe it'll 149 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 8: pop up once every couple of years, but we got 150 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 8: to be on the same page. 151 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 7: How we got to be ready for this. 152 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 8: And even Josie Jewel said, Look, a lot of games 153 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 8: in the NFL come down to one possession, It comes 154 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 8: down to executing at the end of the game. Think 155 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 8: about just even last year at the Broncos, they lost 156 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 8: two games by one point each and then they lost 157 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 8: a few games at overtime. Like these games are tight 158 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 8: and so one little screw up here or there can 159 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 8: be the difference between a winner or a loss. So at 160 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 8: this time of year, it's a mental type of thing. 161 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 8: You know, these practices they're not very physical, so they're 162 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 8: going over every little sort of detail here, and that 163 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 8: includes end of game stuff, you know, hail Mary's you know, 164 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 8: how do you handle that as a defense? How do 165 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 8: you try to execute as an offense? You know, you 166 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 8: got to go over these things. And even coach Peyton, 167 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 8: he was saying, look, it's the guys on the field. 168 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 8: I need to know what they're doing, but ideally everybody 169 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 8: on the bench will. 170 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 7: Know what's going on. 171 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 8: And we saw them spend a lot of time doing 172 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 8: that today in practice. 173 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: Great to start that so early in the year. 174 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: And I know Courland Sutton he said that he thinks 175 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: they're larning up to seventy five different ess so many. 176 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 7: Said forty two. 177 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 8: I think today forty three, and then yeah, he said 178 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 8: overall it's more than seventy. So yeah, there's a lot 179 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 8: of When you think about a game of football, though, 180 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 8: there's like so many weird situations that come up. You're like, 181 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 8: do we have a time out? 182 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 7: No time out? 183 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 8: Do we need a field, well, do we need a touchdown? 184 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 8: You know, what's the situation? Where are we on the field. 185 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 8: You know, there's just so many things you got to know. Hey, 186 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 8: if I get down and we're trying to bring special 187 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 8: teams out, hand the ball to the referee, don't throw 188 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 8: it to them, don't just put the ball down. All 189 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 8: these kind of things you got to go over in 190 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 8: order to execute crisply when you're in the moment and 191 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 8: you don't want your nerves to get the best of 192 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 8: you or anything like that. 193 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 7: You got to know exactly what you're doing. 194 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: So definitely, Yeah, Well it was great to hear from 195 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: Courtland Sutton too. Yeah, we haven't heard from him this 196 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 2: off season, especially since you know, all of those trade 197 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: rumors sparked. Of course, he was asked about that in 198 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: his press comments today. I liked what he said though, 199 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 2: you know, of course everyone wants to be wanted, but 200 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 2: he's so happy that he's here at home. 201 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 8: Yes, he said, yeah, that he thought it was nice that, 202 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 8: you know, other teams felt like he had. Yeah, he 203 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 8: could add something to their rosters, but he was happy 204 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 8: to be back here. I think though personally I would 205 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 8: imagine it's got to be tough when your name's out there, 206 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 8: you know what I mean, and then you're talking, Hey, 207 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 8: what's going on? Do they not wami or you know 208 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 8: what's going on? So hopefully that stuff is in the 209 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 8: past for him and now he's able to just focus 210 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 8: on football. And you know, I think though when you 211 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 8: look at it, and he was asked about it too, 212 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 8: there's a lot of depth in that wide receiver room. 213 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,719 Speaker 8: There's a lot of there's a lot of talent. I mean, 214 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 8: Sean Paygne was asked about Jerry Jerry today and how 215 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 8: explosive he is is what he was talking about. So 216 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 8: there's a lot of guys in that room, especially with 217 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,599 Speaker 8: Tim Patrick coming back from injury. So it's gonna be 218 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 8: interesting to see what the Broncos do there just after 219 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 8: after training camp and the preseason. There's a lot of 220 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 8: talent there. And we know what Courland Sunn's capable of. 221 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 8: You know, when he's healthy. A few years ago twenty nineteen, 222 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 8: he had that big season and you're like, Wow, this 223 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 8: guy's going to be a starring this league. Unfortunately he 224 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 8: gets injured and the last two years I know he 225 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 8: hasn't played as well as he wants to. So hopefully, 226 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 8: you know, with the new coaching staff in here in 227 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 8: this offense can play a little bit better and that'll 228 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 8: help Courtland Sutton too. So I think we all really 229 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 8: like Courtland Sutton the guy too. So you get to 230 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 8: know these guys and their personalities, and you know, we 231 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 8: just want the best for Courland Sutton, I think. But 232 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 8: it is going to be interesting to see what they 233 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 8: do in that room. You know, you keep five to six, 234 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 8: you know, maybe maybe another returners, you know, but Mims kind. 235 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 7: Of does it. It's just gonna be really interesting to 236 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 7: see what they do. 237 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: Will be in Competition's good, competition, healthy. 238 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 8: Get the best out of it, and said that, you know, 239 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 8: competition brings the best out of everybody. But uh, you know, 240 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 8: that room was already really loaded, and then they used 241 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 8: their first draft pick on Marvin Mims Junior. So you know, 242 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 8: you know, that's gonna be definitely something to watch during training. 243 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: Camp for sure. 244 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 2: Well, Phil, you know, it seems that Garay Bowles is 245 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 2: doing really well too. You know, we for him this 246 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 2: week for the first time in a while, you know, 247 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 2: especially since he broke his leg last season. He says 248 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 2: he's feeling good, you know, kind of like look good, 249 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: feel good type of mind. 250 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I love yes, because garat balls like he 251 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 8: had been so durable his entire career. Then he breaks 252 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 8: his leg last year, so you're like, okay, how are 253 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 8: you going to handle this? You know, it's a long 254 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 8: rehab process, missed. I think you only played in five 255 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 8: games last year or something like that, so I think 256 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 8: it was the games. Yeah, yeah, so good to hear 257 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 8: from him, Good to know that he attacked that rehab 258 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 8: the way he did. And he was asked about, Hey, 259 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 8: what do you think about the offensive line and where 260 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 8: the you know, Mike mclinchy coming in Ben Powers, and 261 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 8: he said he's really super excited about that. 262 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: So chemistry there already. 263 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 7: Yeah, the last. 264 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,599 Speaker 8: Few years, you know, he played again right next to 265 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 8: Dalton Riister, so now he's gonna be playing next to 266 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 8: Ben Powers. So there's gonna be an adjustment there and 267 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 8: hopefully they're working on that chemistry and they'll get that 268 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 8: all that stuff put together. And he said he was 269 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 8: excited about the offensive line and we'll see, you know, 270 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 8: we know Garibol is another guy where you know that 271 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 8: twenty twenty he was second team All Pro he was 272 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 8: able to kind of have his game all come together, 273 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 8: and then last couple of years not quite the same 274 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 8: version of him, and. 275 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: He's been injured. 276 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, so he had the injury last year, 277 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 8: and then the year before that wasn't quite as good 278 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 8: as twenty twenty. So hopefully he can regain that because 279 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 8: you know, when he's on his game, he's really good. 280 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 8: So you know, the holding penalties had sort of plagued 281 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 8: him all the way up until that twenty twenty season. 282 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 8: He cleaned that up and then boom, he's really good. 283 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 8: So to see that, gar Yeah exactly. And it's hard, 284 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 8: I think in the NFL when your position coach changes 285 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 8: a lot, you know what I mean. So he's been 286 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 8: going through that too, so you know, he's got a 287 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 8: new position coach coming in now, a guy who played 288 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 8: in the league. 289 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 7: For a long time. 290 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 8: So yeah, hopefully all it all comes back and he 291 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 8: can regain that form. And Garribole is another guy that 292 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 8: we've gotten to know over the years, and you hope 293 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 8: that he does well as well. 294 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: Of course. 295 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 2: Well, seems like this offseason, you know, the main theme 296 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 2: has really just been resetting and kind of forgetting what's 297 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,359 Speaker 2: happened really the past couple of years, but last season specifically, 298 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 2: I think that's going to be really good for this team. 299 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 8: Does feel like that, you know, when we're out of 300 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 8: practice today, I was thinking, like, gosh, last year at 301 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 8: this time, there's so much excitement around Russell Wilson being 302 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 8: out there and being like, hey, Russ is in in 303 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 8: a orange and blue and he's out of practice and 304 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 8: like this offense is gonna be so good, and that 305 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 8: that was sort of the vibe now this year, like 306 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 8: you don't even notice that Russell Wilson's out there, Like 307 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 8: he's just like part of the team, you know. And 308 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 8: I think the buzz this year has been about Sean 309 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 8: Payton coming in and you know, the standard and the 310 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 8: culture change that he brings, and part of that is 311 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 8: sort of adjusting your mind frame and understanding what the 312 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 8: off season is about. You know, it's not really about 313 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 8: building up all this hype for the regular season. It's 314 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 8: about just putting in the work, going about your business, 315 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 8: trying to get better. And the other thing that Sean 316 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 8: Payton brings is like there haven't been that many questions 317 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 8: about like, oh, how are you installing the playbook or 318 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 8: like how are these guys picking these things up?
