Speaker 1: And now move the sticks. The ten Takeaways Podcast with

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah, Bucky Brooks, and a true gamer who is

3
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: powering through an uber induced thumb injury. R Lewis. Wow,

4
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we're back. It is DJ Buck. He's gonna

5
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: join us shortly and apparently somebody who can't safely get

6
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: it in out of an uber. What the heck are

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: you doing? Where did we get this information from? What?

8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're scouts, good doubts, we know how

9
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: to dig on background. What did you do with the

10
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: guy rolled up my thumb in the window as I

11
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: was opening the door, like I mean, and then he

12
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: thought I was kidding when I was yelling, so he

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: just left it there, and so like I had to

14
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: like reach through with my other hand and roll it

15
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: down myself. I still can't feel my thumb now, you know,

16
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: I'm in better shape than Drew Brees is right now

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: than Drew Brees. It's gonna lead us right and cheap

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: at the top of the show here. But by the way,

19
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: we've got our takeaways coming up. Bucky's gonna join us

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: in a little bit via of trees traveling, So he's

21
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 1: coming in driving in so we're gonna get a couple

22
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: of takeaways from him. Uh here in a little bit

23
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: a lot to get to talking about these games and

24
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: are big takeaways. But before we get to those takeaways,

25
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: and now that we've solved the mystery of how you

26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: got hurt in the uber um, the big big news

27
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: obviously Drew Brees with the thumb looks like uh, surgery talking.

28
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: I guess timeline so far. I think I saw Chris Morrison,

29
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 1: uh save six weeks, I guess is what they're Big

30
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: Ben with an elbow. Yeah, Big Ben with an elbow,

31
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: Uh injury to see, Um, he has a decision to

32
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: make today. I guess whether or not he's gonna have surgery.

33
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: So uh pretty significant, I would say with those two

34
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: guys huge and look I watched uh really kind of

35
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: from beginning to end on the Saints Rams game. It

36
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: was obviously one of the more compelling matchups of the

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: day coming in and I mean just seeing that for Drew,

38
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: I mean like he was, you know, obviously just so

39
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: visibly distraught, like you didn't know what to do with

40
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: himself on the sideline. You know, a guy who's only

41
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: missed one game in thirteen years with the Saints. Uh so,

42
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: look that that one, to me is a little more

43
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: disturbing because of well, you know, just how much they

44
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: rely on Drew Brees, whereas saw Mason Rudolph come in

45
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: and played pretty well for the Steelers. I mean the

46
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: interception was was all on Dante moncrieff. If you're asking me,

47
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: come on, a flicker? How about how many yards were

48
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: a flee flicker? That's what it is, you know, through

49
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: a nice through a nice touchdown pass two? Come on,

50
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 1: come on, all right, Well, hey, he's gonna get his opportunity.

51
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: H Look, Mason Ruolf is easy to root for. He's

52
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 1: such a good dude. So um, what makes us see

53
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: what he does? He's gonna get a chance, it looks

54
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: like potentially for a while and then just st just

55
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 1: back on breeze here real quick. Look, if i'm if,

56
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 1: I'm Sean Payton, and you know, all due respect to

57
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater, but I'm considering Taysom Hill. I mean, I

58
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: don't know, And they've got a defense. They've got a

59
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: defense that can keep you in games. So to me,

60
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: I think you morph to me, it's not the same

61
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: it's not the same thing. But I think you go

62
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: back and look at I think it was Adam Gates

63
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: right when he was with Denver when when you had

64
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: the little tebow run there um and obviously completely altered

65
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: the offense towards towards Tebow. To me, that'd be tempting.

66
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas won't like it, but that would be something

67
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: I would consider, because you can just try and run

68
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: the ball, play great defense and hold down the fort

69
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: until breeze comes back, right, and and so the look

70
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: the only problem and look, it's not a it's not

71
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: a true problem if you're gonna say, hey, we we're

72
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: gonna roll with Taysom Hill. But look, the guy's a

73
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: core specially he's on every special team right, he's out there,

74
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: so they gotta figure that out too. And then he's

75
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: he's still a big part of the offense outside of

76
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: the fact, you know, if he wasn't playing quarterbacks, So

77
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: then you gotta kind of scrap that whole side of things.

78
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: And then yeah, as you said, just completely remold what

79
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: they want to do. But it might be worth it

80
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: to kind of and switching over the Steelers. I know

81
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: this is obviously we are very early on in the season,

82
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: but man, this I know, I've got the injury now,

83
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: and you just look at kind of where this team

84
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: is is situated. You're in that division, Baltimore is the

85
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: only team it's too and oh you've got Pittsburgh. It

86
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: go into the Bengals and go into the Browns with

87
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 1: a big game come up against the Jets. They should win.

88
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: You assume they'd be, they'd be one and one, But

89
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: it looks like Baltimore has got a chance to run

90
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: away and hide inside this division. And uh, Pittsburgh Steelers,

91
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you could think of a worst

92
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: start for this team, and when you look what they

93
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: have coming up at the forty Niners, who are U

94
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: two and home playing good football right now, the Bengals

95
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: at home, which is always a rivalry game there, which um,

96
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: and I'll see what happens there. Then they go Ravens

97
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: at Chargers. So this could get away from the Steelers

98
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 1: real quick, especially with this injury to Roethlisberger. Well, and

99
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: the other thing we'll just have to keep monitoring is

100
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking at eighty one rushing yards for

101
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers in this one, uh, you know, and time

102
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,679
Speaker 1: of possession they got dominated in this game. Just twenty

103
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: four minutes at TMP for the Steelers. I mean, you know,

104
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: and again the thing I was talking about from monitoring is,

105
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: you know, the Mike Munchack effect is that's still gonna

106
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: play apart, you know as we continue down this down

107
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: this season. So um yeah, man, they they've got a

108
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: tough stretch ahead. Hard. Let's jump into these takeaways here.

109
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: I'll start us off the game that I was at,

110
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: the Lions were saved by red zone defense. Rivers takes

111
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: the snap, three man rush for Detroit. Rivers long look

112
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: tin to the end zone. It is intercepted by the Lions,

113
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: intercepted by Days like he's got it, picked it off

114
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: in the end though you did it again. You did

115
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: it again, Dan Miller. So remind me again, was that

116
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: the Lions? Is that money? I didn't sounding money? Well, look,

117
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: this was a game. This is a weird game. Uh.

118
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: And this is a game looking at you know, from

119
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: the Charger side of things. Are you come into this

120
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 1: game with no Michael Michael Badgeley, You're kicker, Russell Kuon

121
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: your left tackle is not playing obviously, Melvin Gordon's not there,

122
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: Um Hunter, Henry's not playing. Mike Williams is out there

123
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: on on one leg. You go to the defensive side

124
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: of the ball. Everybody knows about Derwin James not being there.

125
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 1: And then during the game, his backup Adrian Phillips ends

126
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: up breaking his arm. He's out of the game. Michael Davis,

127
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: You're starting corner does not play. I mean, it was

128
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: just a a litany of injuries and guys not playing

129
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: in this game. And yet the charges for the most

130
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: party dominated this football game and moving the ball in

131
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 1: the second half up and down the field, but had

132
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: nothing to show for it. And that's why my takeaway

133
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: was this red zone defense. How many times do you

134
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: see when you get a big player, you get down

135
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: inside the five yard liner, down inside the red zone,

136
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: and you almost see a fatal company with the defense

137
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: and then it just kind of gets in the end

138
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: zone when you look at the lines. Now, Austin Ekeler

139
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: tried to leap over the pile for the second time. Uh,

140
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: first time he scored. Second time, the lines meet him

141
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 1: forced the fumble at the one yard line. And then

142
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: at the player you just listened to with Darius Slay

143
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: picking off a ball in the end zone. I mean,

144
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: those those that's the football game right there. And it

145
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: shows you the importance of you can give up yardage

146
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about this in another game coming up,

147
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: but you can give up all the yardage you want

148
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 1: between the twenties. Man, If you can buckle down, get

149
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: stops and in this case, even turnovers, you win a

150
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: football game. Does this I mean, look, we know we're

151
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: Patricia came from. Does that not feel like a Patriots

152
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: defense from a few years ago? You know what? I mean?

153
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: The top five in scoring defense the last five years

154
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: for a reason, right, Patriots are I mean, that's what

155
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: it felt like to me when I was watching that game,

156
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: like they're just finding a way to keep points off

157
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: the board, you know, And you're absolutely right there. That

158
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: was well. It also helps when the when when the

159
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: backup kicker you know, yeah, yeah, mrs to two field

160
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: goals and and you have to I almost kind of

161
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: wonder you try and climb inside Philip rivers head a

162
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: little bit on that interception if he's sitting there thinking, hey,

163
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: if I don't put this thing in the end zone,

164
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: I don't want to put this this ball in the

165
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: hands of our backup kicker, right, you know, I don't

166
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: want to make excuses for rivers, but that, um, but

167
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: was kind of a what was a interesting decision to

168
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: try and attack on that play right there and playing

169
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: conservative um with you on that as well. All right,

170
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: I'll take you, let me take us to get us

171
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: going here? What do you got Kellen Moore will be

172
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: a head coach in trust that under cutter second down

173
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: six with a play fake to Elliott. He's got a

174
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: lot of time deep in the middle. He's got a

175
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: man of the middle of fields tune for the touchdown.

176
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: David Smith, Well, that's another story, Devin Smith. What back

177
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: in the back the first time? I'm so glad I

178
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: can I'm I'm still held on to that report. It's

179
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: under my bedroom alright, hitting it for for from sight.

180
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: But I could be re emerging at some point in time.

181
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: Um with you on that one. What was he second

182
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: round to the Jets in a few Yeah, second round

183
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: the Jets? Right, okay, anyway back tolling idiots. Some idiots

184
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: said he was kind of like to Sean Jackson, but

185
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 1: I don't know who that idiot was. Well, we saw

186
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: Ohio State. Look you all, you can go off as

187
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: the table. So here we go. Um, the tagline there

188
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: is look unfortunate for the Cowboys, unless, of course, he

189
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: ends up taking Jason Garrett's place. But I mean, look,

190
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: Kellen Moore, in his first season calling plays, has called

191
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: two terrific games. Look at this one. Uh, just this

192
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: week against the Redskins. Outside of a rough first quarter

193
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: for Dak Prescott. Also credit to him for bouncing back

194
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: that one after the interception, he was near perfect. Thirty

195
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,440
Speaker 1: attempts for Dak Prescott. You know the story. When he

196
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: goes over thirty, it's trouble. Uh, twenty five total touches

197
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: for Ezekiel Elliott, twenty three rushes, he goes over a hundred.

198
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it is as perfect a balance as you

199
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: could ask for. If you're a Cowboys fan or a

200
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: Cowboys remember that organization because that's how that's how they

201
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: win football games. And he's done it in both both

202
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: of these games. Really, and I mean Dad finishes the

203
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: game on eighteen straight completions. You think he's comfortable in

204
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: this offense? Uh, And they're they've got way more explosive

205
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 1: this year DJ than they were a year ago, especially

206
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: in the past game. And obviously that's the credit to

207
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: some of the personnel they have. But man, um, now,

208
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: you don't get those opportunities to have that perfect balance

209
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: without pretty good defense. And they had that against Washington too.

210
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: You hold a team under two and sixty total yards

211
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: in this league, you're doing something right. Um So they

212
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: did that. Look, it took them six weeks to score

213
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: nine offensive touchdowns a year ago. They've already got that

214
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: mark through two weeks. Yeah, yeah, Look, I'm not gonna

215
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: argue with anything you just said. In fact, had tweeted

216
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: out something about Kellen and obviously he's known Kellen and

217
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: playing with him. Um So I I went back and

218
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, I know, I know, I've talked about Kellen

219
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: Moore gonna be a head coach in this league. So

220
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: I like looked in Twitter found it. Um So it

221
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 1: was original enough from Ian Rappaport, and it said one

222
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: possibility for the Cowboys, something that allows that John Kitten

223
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: the interest to make sense, is to promote fast rising

224
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 1: QB coach Kellen Moore to offensive coordinator. At least that's

225
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: in the discussion. So this is gosh, this is on

226
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: in January. And so I retweeted that and I said,

227
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: I've mentioned this before Kellen Moore is a rising star.

228
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: He'll be in the mix for head coaching gigs, college

229
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: football or NFL in the very near future. And the

230
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: first comment underneath that is Orlovsky, who who writes like

231
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: So I texted to Orlovsky and I said, buddy, like, look,

232
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna all hear when we're wrong, man, So when

233
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: we get this right now. But no, he fits that.

234
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: He fits my checklist. So when people talk to me about,

235
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: you know, future head coaches, and I just kind of

236
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 1: look at some of the guys that have been successful

237
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: in this new wave of coaches, think about how how

238
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: many things these guys have in common. Um, and you

239
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: look at, Okay, former quarterback who's been around, um successful

240
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: systems and successful have been mentored by successful coaches, have

241
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 1: been a part of winning organizations. But I mean you

242
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 1: can kind of look at, you know, Sean Payton, who

243
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: had been under Parcel's former quarterback innovative knows how to

244
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: coach that position. Obviously, Sean McVeigh as at the top

245
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: of that list. Um, Doug Peterson is another one on

246
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: that list, so trying to Matt Naggy is another one

247
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: who you know, obviously things haven't gone as well this

248
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: year as they were last year, but kind of fits that.

249
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: All these guys are fitting that profile. And Kellen Moore

250
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: is like literally the poster child for this, having you know,

251
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: played the position, been around Chris Peterson at the college

252
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 1: level who was very innovative, very creative, and then all

253
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: the time he's spent in the NFL as a backup.

254
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 1: I mean, it's like this, he's gonna be He's gonna

255
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: be a court the other one's gonna be as Kafka

256
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: Kafka is with the Chiefs coach quarterbacks, quarterback from Northwest. Yes,

257
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: these guys, it's like you can pick him out of

258
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 1: a lineup well and for more, like if Zach Taylor

259
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 1: and Cliff Kingsbury got jobs after never calling plays in

260
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: the NFL before last year, Kellen Moore is gonna get

261
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: a head coaching job next year. Book it No, it's happening. Selfishly,

262
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: I kind of was hoping he would go to college

263
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: because I'd like to see him creative. Yeah, one of

264
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: the great college quarterbacks there in Kellen Moore. But you're right,

265
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are rolling interested to see what happens to

266
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: this injury news here on Michael Gallup. I'm sure we'll

267
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: get an update on that later on in the day.

268
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: But he's off to a good start. Hopefully he's all right.

269
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the next one here. I

270
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: want to keep things positive. Sometimes it's hard rhet Miami.

271
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: They might run the table dot dot dot in reverse. Now,

272
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick third and two, rolling white and he throws in

273
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: traffic interst to pick up by Gilmore, who is gone

274
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: play down the middle twenty goodbye to the end zone,

275
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: touchdown Patriots. So I'm doing a charger game, raet, and

276
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: I'm it's the it's a break in the action. So

277
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: I pull up my computer and said, let me see

278
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: what's going on around the NFL. Look at some scores here.

279
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,199
Speaker 1: So I see the lopside had scored in Miami, and

280
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: I just click on the little team stats. Right, let's

281
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: see what's going on here, And I tweeted out through

282
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: three quarters Miami's offense twenty eight plays, thirty eight yards.

283
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: I mean that is next level futility. Man, if you

284
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: were if you were trying to I'll avoid the T word,

285
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: I'll say, if you're trying to increase your odds of

286
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: securing the first overall pick. They are off to an

287
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: incredible start, uh down there in Miami, DJ. And why

288
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 1: is Ryan Fitzpatrick I didn't see any of it. How

289
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 1: is it possible that Josh Rosen is this bad and

290
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: practice to where he cannot start for this team? Like

291
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 1: is that? I mean, that's got to be what we're

292
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: talking about here, right, That's the only reason why he's

293
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: not playing, is he's not performing in practice. Right. Well, look,

294
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: I know they've got bigger problems. I know they've got

295
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: bigger problems. I mean, maybe that's the thing. Maybe carnivals

296
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: were at Yuh. Normally, when you go to a carnival

297
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 1: um or maybe a kids party, you can sign up

298
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 1: to hit the pin yata. I never had an opportunity

299
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: to sign up to be the pin yata. And that

300
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: is what they're doing right there at the quarterback position.

301
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 1: Josh Rosen might be like, hey, you know what, Ryan,

302
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: Hey go get them pal I'll like, yeah, take that beating.

303
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: I'll just wait for my next team. Right. That's the

304
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: only other possible conceivable option is that. Look, they're like, look,

305
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: we're just we're not good enough for you know, Rosen

306
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: to come in here and just get thrown into the

307
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: you know, into the lions den. I mean it's that's

308
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: the only other thing I can think of. Seven sacks,

309
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: but four picks not not good. Let's not all right,

310
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: we won't do well. It's it's a it's just a

311
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 1: really bad team. I don't want to I just wanted

312
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: to get that out there, that this is. You know,

313
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: it's just some irony there with the obviously the seventy

314
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: two Dolphins and uh and then they could go the

315
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: other way. The street continues for New England. They have

316
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: not allowed a touchdown in three straight games going back

317
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. So they've given up six points

318
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: in the last three games. How's that defense working out

319
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: for you? Britty solid? All right? I'll get us to

320
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: take away number four, shall I? And that is that

321
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: the Colts will not go quietly. Now it's fourth down

322
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: in two. Now, this is the game. With fifteen seconds

323
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: left to go, here we go, Mariota backs, death row

324
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 1: grows left side and it's play. It's played on a

325
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: slant plantern to a J. Pratt Chritsie Wilson on beverage

326
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: for the Cults and the culture gonna win it. The

327
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: Tults will win in week two. So this is this

328
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: is interesting to me because the Colts, the culture just

329
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: a tough team, and and I feel like the Colts

330
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: and the Titans are very similar. They're two tough teams.

331
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: They're not gonna be super flashy, although you know, the

332
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 1: Colts obviously had a ton of chunk plays against the

333
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: Chargers in Week one. But they're just a tough minded team.

334
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: They're always gonna be competitive. Their defense kept it close

335
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: enough in the second half, so the only points that

336
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: the Colts scored in the second half were the ones

337
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,560
Speaker 1: to go ahead and take to go ahead lead. Obviously,

338
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: they had the minitary extra point issues, which caused some

339
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 1: some trouble for them, you know, in the early part

340
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 1: of this game, trying to keep things together. But and

341
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: that will be a storyline obviously that we're gonna watch

342
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: throughout the day. A lot of speculation on whether it's

343
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: it's time for Vinitary to hang it up and whether

344
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,160
Speaker 1: he's thinking about that. But look, I just I think

345
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 1: if you let the Colts hang around it is it's

346
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: gonna bite you. They are gonna come back in Jacoby Brissett.

347
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, he's no Andrew Luck, but man, he's

348
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: doing what his team needs him to do to be

349
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: put in a position to win football games. I think

350
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: now that Jacoby Brissetts there instead of Andrew luck Man.

351
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: I look at these two teams in this division and

352
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: it's it's it's appropriate that this was a nineteen to

353
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: seventeen game because they are darn near carbon copy of

354
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: each other. And to me, they feel they feel rented

355
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: to me like a high floor, low ceiling operation, which

356
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: means this. These teams feel to me like nine hebe

357
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: even ten win teams, UH, potential postseason teams that absolutely

358
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: nobody's gonna be afraid to play once they get into

359
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: the postseason because they're gonna be physical, They're gonna be

360
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: in every single football game. A play a lot of

361
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: close games, but once you get into the postseason, nine

362
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: times out of ten, you're gonna see the elite quarterbacks,

363
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 1: You're gonna see the elite pass rush. UM kind of

364
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: elevate their teams, and I just don't think that either

365
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: one of these teams are elite in those areas. So UM,

366
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: that to me is gonna be you know, the challenge

367
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 1: for him. I look, it's um, it's it's a physical

368
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: brand of football. I like watching it because it's a

369
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: it's an old school approach and just kind of mash people.

370
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: Especially you know, when the Titans get tailored the wand back,

371
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: that will help them become even more physical. But I

372
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: just I don't know where the ceiling is um for

373
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 1: these teams. I think you put it perfectly. They're they're

374
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: they're so similar there. You know, they're probably nine win

375
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: teams that might sneak into the playoffs. I think Week

376
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: thirteen will have a great idea of where both of

377
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 1: these teams stands when they play each other again, and

378
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like, well, one's either gonna push forward

379
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 1: and one's going to kind of start to settle back

380
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: at that point. But that's gonna be interesting. Division. I mean,

381
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: I just like look at that to look at the

382
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: conference though, Like you're talking about the division and you

383
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: started talking about okay, and you start seeing the Chiefs

384
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: and the Patriots and even the Chargers, Like these teams

385
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 1: have a chance to be explosive, like really explosive offensively,

386
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: and uh they can get after you. Um, there's a

387
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: pat at least you know that the Patriots, the way

388
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: they're playing defense right now is on a completely other level.

389
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: So anyways, it'll be uh, it'll be interesting to watch

390
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 1: that race take place in that division. I think it's

391
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: gonna be a very competitive division from start to finish.

392
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: Speaking of the a f C, let's get over to

393
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens and the offensive show they've put on

394
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: for two weeks. My takeaway Mark Andrews, Uh, he's really

395
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: emerging as an elite tight end at the Arizona Olivin

396
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: Brown goes in motions, swoops behind Lamar Jackson, who pumps

397
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: to the right looking for the end zone, fires down

398
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: the sideline. He's got Mark Andrews touchdowns. Mark Andrews wide

399
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: opened down on the sideline. So that was almost like

400
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: a switch route there. You see a lot of those

401
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: verticals and you'll see him, uh switch It's almost looks

402
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: like a scissors and that was one that they hit

403
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: Andrews on that touchdown. But going back and watching that

404
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 1: tape ree, I think I sent you Texas Morning talk

405
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: about it on the aftermath um. But the the fact

406
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: that uh Andrews was a key part when they went empty.

407
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: So we had eight catches in this game. Four those catches,

408
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: half of them came when they emptied out the formation

409
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: and they let him just go to work in the

410
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 1: middle of the field. It's a nice, simple read, simple

411
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: throw for Lamar Jackson. Um, and they were able to

412
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: tear people up. Actually, Lamar missed a couple other opportunities

413
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: where they were an empty working in the middle of

414
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: the field. But um, this is a player Mark Andrews. Look,

415
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: they they have so many tight ends. And you look

416
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: at Andrews for eight, for for one twelve. Nick Boyle

417
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 1: caught a ball in this game. Um, you look at

418
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 1: touchdown him in this game. So they can get a

419
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 1: lot of guys, a lot of guys out and uh

420
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: and make things happen with that tight end position and

421
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 1: and real quick on the quarterback, Lamar, you saw, you saw,

422
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: you know, pick your poison right. Last last week the

423
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, they tried to sell out, play zero coverage

424
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: and force him to throw Hollywood Brown. They hit some

425
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: big plays and he was outstanding. This week they decide, okay,

426
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna try and we're gonn trying to take away

427
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: mark Ingram. We're gonna play back on you. And so look,

428
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: Lamar missed some throws, but you also had had had

429
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: you know, some big time throws in the middle of

430
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 1: the field as well as even outside the numbers. And

431
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: then you saw what you can do running the football

432
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,400
Speaker 1: sixteen for a buck twenty you want to take away

433
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: mark Ingram Lamar Jackson's gonna eat. So it's it's a

434
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: it's a very difficult offense to prepare for in Baltimore.

435
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: I do want to couch it with this one thing.

436
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: You've played the team with the first pick this year, Uh,

437
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals who you just played, and you team

438
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 1: is going to get the first pick next year in

439
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolfhense. So they're gonna step up and they're

440
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: gonna They're not just stepping up in in competition, They're

441
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: stepping all the way up. When you look at them

442
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: going to take on the Chiefs next week. I cannot

443
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: wait for that one. Oh man, is that gonna be fun.

444
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely with you on that. And look Andrews eight

445
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: catches on nine targets, you know, I mean like every

446
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: time I see that, the catch target efficiency is so impressive. Uh.

447
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: And in and for Lamar, I mean hundred twenty yards

448
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: rushing after just three yards rushing a week ago. He

449
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: just He just proved that he might be a little

450
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: bit like the Patriots are as an offense, you know,

451
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: like let me know which way you want me to play,

452
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: and I'll beat you. You know, I'll figure out a way.

453
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: I'll be a chameleon. So that was cool, all right.

454
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: I'll get us back to take away. Another takeaway here

455
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: it's the Seahawks are still danger. Russ. Russell takes the snap,

456
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: looks far aside. He's gonna throw downfield. He's got met Jeff,

457
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: He's got a touchdown, say Hawks DJ Mettjeff. One on

458
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 1: one down the far sidelines. Good look, perfect passed by Russell.

459
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,159
Speaker 1: Wilson Metcalf. Is another story that I would get to

460
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: here in just a second. But if there was any

461
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: doubt about the Seahawks after Week one, where they were

462
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: held under two hundred passing under a hundred rushing, they

463
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: answered the bell this week on the road against Pittsburgh.

464
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: Russ was nearly flawless, almost a perfect pass already. Plus

465
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 1: defense was way better this week for Seattle. They allowed

466
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: just under two hundred sixty total yards. So, um, look,

467
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: I it was not you know, one of those dominating

468
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: um ground performances that we've seen from Seattle. But they

469
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 1: did enough to eat up some clock, put themselves in

470
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: a good position to allow Russell to go for three

471
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 1: through the air. And I just you know, he answers

472
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: that he they answered the bell. Russ. Russ is there

473
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: when they need him to make plays, and he did

474
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: that down the stretch. Uh, And I just they're gonna

475
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: be in the mix. They're gonna there's no way you

476
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 1: can never count the Seahawks team out. Yeah. And they're

477
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 1: they're a combination of three things. Um, they're physical, they're efficient,

478
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: and they're explosive. And that is a dangerous combination to

479
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 1: use your danger rust. And they're getting more with DeKay,

480
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: no no doubt and dk Uh. You know, look, d

481
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 1: k still, he's still got somebody's gonna run every route

482
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: on the route tree. You don't need him to. We

483
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: talked about building a basketball team. He is your power forward.

484
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 1: You saw what he could do after the catch. You

485
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: saw him get vertical from the slot on the touchdown. Um,

486
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: he actually made a nice adjustment down the field. Now

487
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: is he is he gonna be able to drop his

488
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: weight getting it out of breaks and run comebacks and

489
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,400
Speaker 1: curls in a real efficient manner. No, you've got other

490
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: guys to to do that, to supply that in in

491
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: their individual roles. But he is gonna play a very

492
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: important role for this football team. Uh, and it's gonna

493
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: be fun to watch. I thought, you know so so

494
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: much success is predicated on fit and that is a

495
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: perfect fit with DK Metcalf Russell Wilson in this offense.

496
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: And he dominates the a f C North by the way,

497
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 1: nineteen touchdowns to one interception in his career against the

498
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,879
Speaker 1: a f C North. Something about it, man, and you

499
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 1: want to talk about you know, we say the a

500
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: f C North is a toughnest division. A Russkota took

501
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: that personally, it sounds like no doubt he was outstanding,

502
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: all right. Next one for me, Jimmy g through three touchdowns.

503
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: That is play action. John Lapper is there and throw

504
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 1: it back left, right up, what's got it? Touch down? Send,

505
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 1: friend says, and wide open? What PA call? It's hard

506
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 1: for me not to hear touchdown. You're waiting for the

507
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: Raiders to just roll off as tough and then he's

508
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: he's gone over across the bay to the forty niners.

509
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: But look, this is a team I'm uh. I don't

510
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,479
Speaker 1: want to say I'm not rooting for them, but man,

511
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: I put a lot of a lot of put a

512
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 1: lot of my credibility on the line saying I think

513
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: this team has got a chance to be a really,

514
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 1: really good football team, not only a playoff team, but

515
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: somebody you wouldn't necessarily want to play in the postseason

516
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,439
Speaker 1: because of their improved quarterback play with Jimmy being healthy finally,

517
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 1: as well as their improved pass rush, which is the

518
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 1: you know, that's kind of the pillar as a championship

519
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: football In my opinion, I think this team's got a

520
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: chance to be really good. I know, look the Bengals,

521
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: um they were competitive last week with the Seahawks, but

522
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 1: low expectations for them. But I love Kyle Shanahan as

523
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 1: a play caller. I love some of the pieces they

524
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: have in place, and that this this run game rat,

525
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, it is the It is the run

526
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: scheme that everybody in the NFL studies. It's the Kyle

527
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: Shanahan obviously coming down from his father, he runs it

528
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 1: better than anybody else. And they are they are rolling

529
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: right now. Unfortunately, that Joe Stalely injury takes a little

530
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: bit of the shine off. But this is a team

531
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: that this is the this is a team that's got

532
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: a chance to be really good well, and it's not

533
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: how we drew it up either. You know, it's not

534
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 1: McKinnon and Coleman. It's most certain Brita, you know, I mean,

535
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: I mean that that that's well, sure, sure throw him

536
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: in the mix too, but I mean like they did

537
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: things in this game. They did things in this game

538
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: that we were talking about, you know Ingram and Camara

539
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 1: doing all season long, which is which is pretty darn

540
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,640
Speaker 1: impressive a year ago for the Saints. Two fifty nine

541
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: yards rushing, no question that that is the envy of

542
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: the league. And then I love seeing Deebo Samuel get

543
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: into the end zone. And they're still missing two guys

544
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,959
Speaker 1: that can be some you know, real role players for him.

545
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: Obviously Trent Taylor is pretty good darned player in the slot.

546
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: And then you know, I'm just waiting to see what

547
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan wants to do with Jalen Hurd when he

548
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 1: gets healthy, right because we saw it a little bit

549
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: in the preseason. He's one of those kind of gadget

550
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: kind of you He's got a lot of different ways

551
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 1: that that he can be used. So I think we

552
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: haven't even really scratched the surface of the potential for

553
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: this team yet almost. I'm with you, and they get

554
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna get They're gonna get Nick bos A healthy too.

555
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: And I was talking to somebody in the league, um

556
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: who I was talking to one of their offensive lineman

557
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: for the forty Niners, and he said he was asking

558
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: him about Nick Bosa and he said, oh my gosh.

559
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: He said, this guy is going to be a major

560
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: problem for this league, you know, as he gets healthy.

561
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: When he was healthy in camp, we could not block him. Um.

562
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: And and I've talked to people in the in the

563
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: personnel department there with the Niners who said the same thing.

564
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,920
Speaker 1: So if they can just get him healthy and rolling

565
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 1: telling me, man, this is a good football team that's

566
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 1: uh kind of been uh had the injury bug, you know,

567
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,640
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years. If they can get

568
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: healthy stay healthy, this is a dangerous team. Yeah. I

569
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 1: just hope they can recover from the Joe Staley loss. There.

570
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: There actually isn't the left tackle listed behind him on

571
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: their death chart. But it's not great. Yeah, not great,

572
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: by the way. By the way, the fact that the

573
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 1: fact that I did not have any issue with your

574
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 1: whole um, you know, danger Russ punt and then you

575
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: give me a start, You give me that this ridiculous

576
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: Jimmy g through three response. That's that's the low blow, man.

577
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: I got another one for you, Houston. We avoided a problem, hey, Jacksonville,

578
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: caring for the league. Right here from the two yard line,

579
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: min Sho would have gone three receivers left hand off

580
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 1: four Nett wanting left bad he stopped Justin Reid got

581
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: in there the d Steffens on the two point conversion

582
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: try the Texans half of a thirteen twelve but thirty

583
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: seconds left. I see Look, I love Mark Vandermer. I

584
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 1: thought he's a little subdued on that call, like that's

585
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: the that's the game right there, you know, um, but

586
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: look look at you you're doing you do play by now? No, no, no, Mark,

587
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: Mark is one of the absolute best in the business.

588
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 1: Hear that, Mark, hear that. But look, you probably probably

589
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: had to probably had to just make sure that that

590
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: thing didn't actually to get across the goal line. Right.

591
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 1: It's like it's hard to be you know, over the

592
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: top and you're not a percent that that thing is

593
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: gonna stand. So that was a huge play. I mean,

594
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: Justin Reid absolutely saved that ball game on the second

595
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 1: effort by four net. But what I loved, what I

596
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: loved about it was that we saw at Houston's defense

597
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: win a game, you know, I mean a week ago,

598
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, you know, where is this? And

599
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 1: obviously the Saints are a good offense, but we go

600
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: it was like, man, you know, in a big spot,

601
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 1: you've gotta be able to count on a defense that

602
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: has that many, you know, high profile marquee players like

603
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: they do. So you know, that was a little concerning.

604
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: And look, you can't if you're Houston, you cannot be

605
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: oh in two after you started oh in three last year.

606
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: I know they went on a nine game win streak,

607
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: but like, you just can't keep digging your hole, digging

608
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: yourself a hole and expect to get out of it. Uh,

609
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 1: And look, Deshaun Watson is going to have better football

610
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: games than than what we saw in Week two, and

611
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: that I'm not worried about. But it felt good for

612
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: me to see the Houston Texans defense rise to the occasion,

613
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: no doubt, again I said earlier, I think this is

614
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: a very competitive division that's gonna come right down to

615
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: the end of the season. And I think even Jacksonville

616
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: and has got a chance to to rebound and they're

617
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: gonna be competitive and they're not uh, they're not gonna

618
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: punt the season. So I think it's gonna be a

619
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 1: fun division to to monitor as we go through the

620
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: rest of the year. It is weird, though, watching that

621
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: Houston defense without Clowney. Uh. Yeah, it's it's done the same.

622
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: I'm not used to it yet. Yeah, not not the

623
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: same punch. All right, we need we need to bring

624
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 1: Let's bring in Buck, Let's bring in the closer, all right.

625
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 1: So I'm in the game, is Maria Rivere And so

626
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm ready. I'm ready to kind of finish it off.

627
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,239
Speaker 1: Show us what you got. What's your cutter? Like my cutter? Like, oh,

628
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: we got here. I'm coming high and hot. I'm gonna

629
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: say the Saints need more grit. Jerry Goff rs his

630
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: team to the line with Girly behind him. He takes

631
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 1: his snap, He tossed his leap, Girly behind his block,

632
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: sprint to the lot side touchdown. Tod Gurley touchdown. Hey,

633
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: Look as well as the Rams played, and I thought

634
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: they did a really solid job of kind taking control

635
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: of the game when there the game was there for them.

636
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: I think we have to talk about the Saints and

637
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: the Saints being able to show a little level of resiliency.

638
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: We knew with all the bad calls that have affected

639
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: him that there was a bit of a carryover fit,

640
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 1: and I still feel like when bad things go against him,

641
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: they have a tough time of getting out of their

642
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 1: own way. Uh the Cam Jordan back call, Look, it

643
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: should have been a touchdown. Um, they should have been reviewable.

644
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: I understand all of that, but at some point the

645
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: Saints have to be able to dig down and kind

646
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: of fight through the adversity that has thrown their way.

647
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: Drew Brees goes out and all the other stuff. I

648
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: just would like to see them cut down on some

649
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: of the penalties and find a way to kind of

650
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: be a grinded out team. And I feel like Sean

651
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: Payton the lootacy that a little bit in his postgame

652
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 1: pressure starts with him too, though, right I thought that,

653
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: Oh No, I think I think there's definitely some blame there. Buck.

654
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 1: I I when I looked at this game. I haven't

655
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: had a chance to go back and watch the tape

656
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: on this one yet, so I'm looking forward to doing that.

657
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: But the two things, and and just you know, reading

658
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: everything and watching what I've was able to see on TV.

659
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: Um didn't run the ball as well as I would

660
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: have thought, especially after Breeze went down. It's nice when

661
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 1: you have a good offensive line, which they do, a

662
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: very good offensive line, like the offensive and be able

663
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: to carry you a little bit, get that run game

664
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: cranked up. Weren't able to do that. And then just defensively,

665
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: you talk about more grit and I look early in

666
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: the season to be expected. But the tackling wasn't good. Man.

667
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: The tackling was not good. So when you can't run

668
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 1: the ball, you're not tackling, well, that's a problem. Uh, guys,

669
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: I think we need to just take a second here

670
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: and read this statement that Mike Tomlin just released on

671
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger had an m r I in his right

672
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: elbow Sunday evening and was determined by the Steelers medical

673
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 1: team that surgery will be required. We expect the surgery

674
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 1: will be scheduled for this week. He is out for

675
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 1: the season. Whoa, whoa, Yeah, that's big. So it's funny.

676
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: Like and I'm not a medical expert, but when he

677
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: was holding it for some reason when I'm watching the game,

678
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I don't it's gonna have to have

679
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: Tommy Johns. I said the same thing this morning, just

680
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 1: the way that he was voting. I was like, man,

681
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: I want to, like, I wonder if this is a

682
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: tummy john situation because every throw he was having to

683
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: go back and kind of rub on it and touch

684
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: it and shake it out and the like. And it

685
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: just reminded me of when you see pictures and it

686
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: goes like yeah and look and we don't. They're not

687
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,239
Speaker 1: saying exactly what it is, but uh, that's I mean

688
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 1: to be out for this season right away for the surgery.

689
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's it's it's a significant deal, significant injury.

690
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: All right, Mason, what you got? So I will say

691
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 1: this like and we can get back to the Saints,

692
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: but I will say this about Mason Rudolph. I thought

693
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: Mason Rudolph did a pretty solid job when he came in,

694
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: considering he didn't have a lot of practice time. Um,

695
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 1: he got it. But I'm gonna be honest, and and

696
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 1: maybe we all kind of fed into the thing like

697
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: addition by subtraction, whatever. But when I look at this

698
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: wide receiver corps with you dou in the like, these

699
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: guys leave a lot of balls on the ground, like

700
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: a lot of drop passes, a lot of things I mean,

701
00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 1: like like like a lot of things that you like

702
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: them to be able to do. I hate to say, hey,

703
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: you remove eighty four and everyone kind of falls apart,

704
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: but they're not playing at a level that they can

705
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: uplift and elevate a quarterback. And so Mason Rudolph played

706
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: well enough to get them a winning performance, but he

707
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 1: has to get the other guys to pick it up.

708
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: I agree. And that's when I mentioned at the top

709
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: of the show, when we were just kind of talking about,

710
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: you know, whether this was going to happen with Big Ben,

711
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: you know, we weren't quite sure at that point, and

712
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: then as we're doing this thing, you know, we learned

713
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: that he's out for the season. So it's Mason Rudolph

714
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,239
Speaker 1: here from week three on for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who

715
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: have a tough stretches. DJ mentioned, but I'm with you, man,

716
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 1: they I mean he showed that the moment was not big,

717
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: too big for him. No, he he did a pretty

718
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 1: good job. I bet they wish they had probably held

719
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 1: on the Josh Dobbs a little bit before right now,

720
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: like moving in because who's your backup? And what do

721
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: you do? What do you do in that regard to

722
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 1: tough sledding in Pittsburgh coming out a pipe, especially when

723
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: you're not running all. What's interesting, guys is oh, no

724
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: doubt what when you look at this and I just

725
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: you think about that, Oh four quarterback class right with

726
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: uh with Eli Manning were verse Roethlisberger. Now you've got

727
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger done for the year, Eli Manning. I mean the

728
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 1: papers already calling for Daniel Jones to replace him. Uh,

729
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 1: you know Philip just Philip just had one bad decision

730
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: the other day. But he's he's still gonna be fine.

731
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,359
Speaker 1: But you've got Brees who's older who now he's gonna

732
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 1: miss a bunch of time. Look there's a reason. And

733
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: I know like Ben got upset. Remember how upset he

734
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: got when they took Mason Rudolph All we could have

735
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 1: got somebody that could run up our football team right now, Uh,

736
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: something along those lines man As an organization, when you've

737
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: got an older quarterback, it's it's negligent if you don't

738
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: try and prepare for the situation. Now I give I

739
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: give the Saints credit for you know, they believed and

740
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater they gave him top dollar as a backup

741
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 1: to prepare themselves in case something were to happen with

742
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 1: Drew Brees. Now the jury is still out on that

743
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 1: whether or not. For me, he's going to live up

744
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: to the money that they gave him. That the Chargers

745
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 1: went out and got Taylor, who gave him, who gave

746
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: him some you know, gave Tyrod Taylor a good bit

747
00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: of money to protect themselves against UH with rivers. And

748
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 1: so it's it's fascinating. We've had so many these old

749
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,879
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and of course the guy in New England, it's

750
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 1: just he's like he's like a rubber band, jumping away

751
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 1: and stretching anyway you want, but you ain't going anywhere.

752
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: It is unbelievable because dj Um for so long the

753
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: quarterback had been like, oh, you know, it's like a

754
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 1: tenure position. And we got to this point where we

755
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: started viewing it like as a I want my quarterback

756
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: to play twenty years and death. I mean, we've never

757
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: been in pro sports where we've seen guys count on

758
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: players playing fifteen to twenty years, and so I do

759
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 1: want to if this kind of bring us back um

760
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: to reality, Like, hey, when we make that franchise quarterback decision,

761
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: we can think about one contract, two contracts and maybe

762
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 1: a third. But when they get to that third contract,

763
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: you need to start thinking about who is the next

764
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 1: quarterback because you can't count on they gut to be

765
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 1: your franchise quarterback for twenty plus years. Well, the Saints.

766
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: Saints have been doing this for years now. I mean

767
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: you go back, was it four years ago the drafted

768
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: Garrett Grayson in the third front trying to find guys,

769
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 1: it signed Teddy Bridgewater, trading for Teddy Bridgewater um and

770
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 1: then signing him again. And just by the way, Garret

771
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 1: Folo um our pal here in NFL Network said he

772
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 1: was on a phone with the team personnel when the

773
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger Newsbrooke said, obviously huge loss because of his experience

774
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 1: and what he's done. But with the way Mason Rudolph

775
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,439
Speaker 1: played in the preseason and yesterday, they'll be in better

776
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: shape than a lot of other teams would be. Yet

777
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: just just to your point there, Teach, So I was not.

778
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: I was not. I wish I was. Wish I was.

779
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 1: Like I talked to Mason a bunch of this preseason.

780
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 1: He's been feeling it, man, he's been feeling really good

781
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 1: about it. So, um, you know, I hate that if

782
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: he plays well, If he plays well, I mean I

783
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 1: would say, I don't know if it's a hot take

784
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: or not, but if he plays well, I mean, isn't

785
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:43,799
Speaker 1: this the time you kind of would turn the page

786
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 1: and for the picture. Yeah, Look, he plays well throughout

787
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: this string. You're not gonna bring Ben back in him

788
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, it's a too two year thing though, Right,

789
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: it wasn't a huge deal, uh year wise money, we

790
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 1: just gave him big money he did. Look, it's kind

791
00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 1: of like the Peyton Manning thing. You know, I'm just

792
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 1: telling you, man, the injury present at some point time

793
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: you go. We'll look obviously seeing it to the extreme

794
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 1: with Miami. But where's the place you don't want to be.

795
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: It's stuck in the middle, you know, either chasing championships

796
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,879
Speaker 1: or you are rebuilding. Um, being stuck in the middle

797
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: is no buyo, you're you're right all right? Should we

798
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: get back on track here, bucket, let's get let's get

799
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: back on track. You got another one? Yeah, I got

800
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: another one. The Falcons playmakers carry the load, play clock

801
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,800
Speaker 1: at three, play clock at two. Shotgun step comes in

802
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: on fourth down, Lion throws a loutside Julio only cats

803
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 1: got a clock head tools on the load to the

804
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: funny freaks. Alile Thorny down the left sideline of the ten,

805
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,360
Speaker 1: looks over his shoulder at the five flies in for

806
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: six fifty three yards. Julio shows takes at the distance,

807
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: and the Falcons take a twenty three to twenty lead

808
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 1: with two ten to play. Man, you gotta like that.

809
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: You gotta like when your flight makers go a big

810
00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: fourth down. You need to play you even though it's

811
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: show freak screen Julia Jones and he goes to distance.

812
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: But I think the thing that is more impressive is

813
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: not just Julia Jones doing what he does. We expect

814
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 1: that from him, but Calvin really showing up giving them

815
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: a hundred yards um to one hundred yard receivers on

816
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: the day, being able to kind of spread it around

817
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:16,879
Speaker 1: and do those things and listen to Calvin Ridley after

818
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,720
Speaker 1: the game, just talking about how much he has learned

819
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,919
Speaker 1: from Julio Jones and Mohammed sank New and how those

820
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,839
Speaker 1: guys are pros and they've kind of set the table

821
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 1: for him and he's just trying to do whatever you

822
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,320
Speaker 1: can do to help the team win. For the Falcons,

823
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: when I look at this team, I would like to

824
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 1: think that they can be a physical team, but at

825
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 1: the end of the day, they're going to be a

826
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 1: finesse outfit. Their wide receivers argue be the guys that

827
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 1: kind of carried a little because we haven't seen Freeman

828
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 1: be the same guy that we saw a couple of

829
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,080
Speaker 1: years ago. We need to see the Falcons kind of

830
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 1: leaning on the wide receivers into the running game stuffs up.

831
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: So they may be a team that literally passes to

832
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: set up the run um and kind of they're they're

833
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,759
Speaker 1: able to do it in a in a different situation

834
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 1: in the NFC South, Hey, we gotta include Jake Matthews

835
00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 1: that list of playmakers. You see that block laid that

836
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,440
Speaker 1: Jock Joe breaks, I mean it was it was like

837
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: almost blocking the back, but it wasn't just enough to

838
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: spring Julio that was huge. Yeah, look they want the

839
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: The Eagles went aggressive on that play call, and I

840
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,840
Speaker 1: watched the tape this morning. You can see literally that

841
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 1: whole second half, hands go up on his on his

842
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 1: headset like this as soon as he saw that ball completed,

843
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 1: like oh no. But then the other thing is a

844
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 1: great example, Buck, this is a you ought to clip

845
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: this for your high school team and show him the

846
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 1: importance of pursuit angles. Because yes, that was gonna be

847
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: a first down. It was a brilliant play call, but

848
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: the backside defenders took such horrible Instead of being a

849
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: first down, it's a touchdown. And that that to me.

850
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: We talked earlier Buck, when we were talking about the

851
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: Chargers Lions game. Um, how the Lions, you know, making

852
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: two plays in the red zone, you know, save their

853
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: save the game for you in a football game. So

854
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: if you can just get Julio Jones on the ground

855
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 1: there maybe you know who knows. Yeah, they're always trying

856
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,799
Speaker 1: to give yourself a chance. And it's funny you talked

857
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: about the charge game because they did show up the

858
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: fact that the Lions are to get Austin Eckler down

859
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 1: and was the Jackson that also broke out, they were

860
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,320
Speaker 1: able to kind of rally him down or some of

861
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 1: those players Austin Ekeler fumbled at the one jumping in

862
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:10,759
Speaker 1: and then uh, and then you have a pick in

863
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: the end zone at the end of the games bad

864
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: bad swings like being being able to get those things.

865
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, it is all about angles or whatever. I

866
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,240
Speaker 1: will say this, um the Eagles. I give the Eagles

867
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: a ton of credit because all of their playmakers are

868
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: on the shelf like they're they're done or whatever. And

869
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: if not for and Nelson Aguilar dropped past like who knows,

870
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 1: they probably couldn't maybe should have won this game. I mean,

871
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: so it's it's tough, but Carson Wentz to playmakers, they

872
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: still have to connection with Zach erks Um, they're able

873
00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: to make plays. It doesn't matter of finding the rhythm.

874
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: The thing that I believe all these teams are trying

875
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 1: to do the first month of the season kind of

876
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,800
Speaker 1: find out who you are and what your identity is

877
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 1: on offense and defense. Yeah, and and look, the last

878
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:51,880
Speaker 1: thing I'll say on the on the Eagles is, look,

879
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 1: I know they had the injuries to Jeffrey into Jackson

880
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: during the game, but how long do you feel like

881
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,320
Speaker 1: the Eagles can continue to live and die both with

882
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: the good and bad of Carson Wentz's risk taking with

883
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 1: the throws and then the possibility of him getting banged

884
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 1: up in one of those plays. I mean, like this

885
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: looks this if we were talking about him trying to

886
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: protect himself a little bit more this year compared to

887
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:17,880
Speaker 1: It doesn't look that way to me. And I know

888
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: he's got to play his way, man, but that's dangerous.

889
00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 1: It is dangerous. I think the big thing Um Doug

890
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,840
Speaker 1: Peterson and that staff has to figure that. They got

891
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 1: to figure out a way to balance up the way

892
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: they approach it, Like they have to have a simbulance

893
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: of a running game to be able to offset it.

894
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 1: So when Carson is throwing, he's able to throw when

895
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: they want to throw. Now when they have to throw, Uh,

896
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: the pitch count for him, I still say thirty to

897
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,319
Speaker 1: thirty two throws. I wouldn't like him to get much

898
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: north to that, just because you have to kind of

899
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: protect him against him stuff. And the more that you

900
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 1: drop back to throw, the more susceptible he's gonna be

901
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 1: to kind of make one of those risky plays and

902
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: kind of expose himself to a big shot that he

903
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 1: doesn't need to be exposed to. It was a few

904
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 1: of them in that game, though. Yeah, I'll leave on

905
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 1: that one. You guys, I thought the h I thought, actually, Carson, Man,

906
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: if you if you include some of the drops and

907
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: throw those arge totals in there, I thought he made

908
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,719
Speaker 1: some big time plays. He's there's some super Bowl there.

909
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 1: I mean there's some not super there's some m v

910
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: p H tight plays in there. You're seeing that version

911
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 1: of him come out. But they didn't have a run

912
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: longer than five yards in this game, So they have

913
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,280
Speaker 1: got to find a way, uh to run the football
