Speaker 1: this weekend or in the week coming. The Fantasy Extravaganza

21
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: it was a annual fantasy extravaganza, and what a celebration

22
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: it was to mark that milestone. So I didn't get

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: a chance to bring it up, but I wanted to

24
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: make one more point, that one more nugget that I

25
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: got Mark from the Westling Rosenthal Rich Eyes and show appearance,

26
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: which again went over like gangbusters everywhere you turn. A

27
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: lot of social media action around that the guys look great.

28
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: And I mentioned this on Instagram and Twitter. Um, but

29
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: I want to say it in person. You guys looked

30
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: really good on camera. Fit, well dressed, fit. Yeah, that's

31
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: well spoken. It was just a nice It was a

32
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: nice thing to see represented the brand well. But I

33
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: didn't want to mention Mark that I heard through the

34
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: grapevine that, um, you know West he he positions himself

35
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: as the man sitting at the top the common man rankings. Okay,

36
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: sure he does famously. You know Bertie told me that

37
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: he took a limo to the rich. Wait a minute,

38
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: that cannot be true. That is erroneous. There was no

39
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: limo and the poor driver had to take out a

40
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: baby seat to put us in. There's a car service,

41
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: it was, yes, if it was, it was let's actually

42
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 1: I have I have footage the West side of Cincinnati,

43
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: a working class area. Let's just cut to the West

44
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: side of Cincinnati. Their reaction to the news that was

45
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: his mom. They're worked up, and it should. In West's defense,

46
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: he doesn't drive an automobile these days, which is kind

47
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: of a common man thing. So you know, if you

48
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: get off the ride, the common man thing, getting the

49
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 1: pickup truck and rumble over to Direct TV headquarters, or

50
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: I would say, just a simple uber X, the lowest

51
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: tier uber off. You can expense it easily with the company.

52
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure West has a very cooked up appropriate response

53
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: to this, though. I was told by the people in

54
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: the West set of Cincinnati that I was getting up,

55
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: but he when I wore dockers once in a while.

56
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: One thing, one thing I learned during that episode sitting

57
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: behind the Glass is that you guys are asked. I

58
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: now understand, well, I'm in here, and I become one too.

59
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: But when I'm back there, I realized these guys are

60
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: impossible to deal with, total vault. They're living up on clouds,

61
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: and I just was appalled by what I've viewed, especially

62
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 1: off air. Sobering Sobering stuff. Mark Uh. Coming up on

63
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: the Friday edition of the Around the NFL podcast some

64
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: preseason week three Uh takeaways. There was a handful a

65
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: bushel of games played Thursday and what used to be

66
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: the most important UM week on the preseason calendar, and

67
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: I guess it still is, but it's different now. It's

68
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: just different. It's just treated in the same way once was.

69
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: But there are takeaways and we will share them. Also, um,

70
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: Greg wrote a banger. Yeah he did. What is that

71

74
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: at all the compliments I'm paying to the group today,

75
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: Can you stop saying it? So I have to go

76
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: back and bleep all these words like I keep saying

77
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: the word asked. Also, I have to go back and

78
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: do all this work. Whenever you are butttering anyone up,

79
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: it is for a purpose, Nick, for a tier. Uh.

80
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: That drop right there. So Greg wrote about his from

81
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 1: his viewpoint, the biggest camp surprises in each city. So

Speaker 1: gave the tiny box Colleen Wolf this morning on Good

97
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: Morning Football, all about your Brown's mark. I'm blown away,

98
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: and I you know, one little There's so much to

99
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 1: unpack there, but she mentioned Baker Mayfield's fashion poise and

100
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: you know what. Obviously, um he did the g Q thing.

101
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: And I saw seeing all the tweets, everyone calling what

102
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: the code he wore his grandmother's old all the suff

103
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: Let's let's be real about one thing, and it's now

104
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: it's his turn to be ripped apart for his fashion choices.

105
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: To every one of these quarterbacks that does one of

106
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: these fashion spreads, and really, any rich male, any male

107
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: that becomes super rich, starts wearing clothing that is so

108
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: beyond what any of us would ever comprehend putting on that.

109
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: He's just like anyone else at this point. It's not

110
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: like setting new give me a break with the Mark

111
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: Sanchez Spreadshoot like that, That to me was he's not

112
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: picking was. The only question is whether he takes him

113
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: with him when I think Baker's at the point he's

114
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: just taking this was it? I would think it was

115
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: like a joke on Twitter that was actually his grandmother's coat. No,

116
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: it's just that it looked very much like a like

117
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: a code of grandmother from any century, might uh put

118
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: on any century. Wow, you take a great job, she

119
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: wrote that. Yes she did. She did, and she performed it,

120
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: and I think she won the rap battle between her

121
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: Kyle Bryant. Wow, nicely. That hurts, Nate, you know it does.

122
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: Cam Newton got hurt unbelievable. On Thursday, he left the

123
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: preseason game against the Patriots, uh with a foot injury.

124
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: He left the stadium in a walking boot, and rap

125
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: Sheet reported Friday that an X ray and other tests

126
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: um he was diagnosed with a mid foot sprain in

127
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: his left foot. General manager Marty Hernie turd Rap told

128
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: rap Sheet that the team is quote cautiously optimistic that

129
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: Newton will be ready for Week one against the Rams,

130
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: week one, which is now, you know, just over two

131
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: weeks away and west you know, we didn't mention Cam

132
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: Newton in um the fantasy extravaganza during the Stay Stay

133
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: Way chatter, but he was on my list just going

134
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: to get a chance to bring him up. I just

135
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit nervous about Cam because, um, obviously,

136
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: any thirty year old quarterback that said two shoulder surgeries,

137
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: you get nervous. But he's also had ankle surgery. Now

138
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 1: this foot is right connected to that ankle. Is it

139
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: possible that the guy has taken a lot of abuse

140
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: over the years he's breaking down? Is that a real

141
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: concerned to be having if you're a path dispex So

142
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: it's a scary one. Well, I mean, is it possible, sure,

143
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: But I don't know. It seems more like bad luck

144
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: to me than breaking down. A mid foot spring. To me,

145
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: the greater concern is that I haven't liked what I've

146
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: seen out of Will Greer at the quarterback they drafted

147
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: in the third round. Guys like Ryan Finley the Bengals

148
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: mid round pick, and Jared's did him the Patriots mid

149
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: round pick, looked a lot better. I haven't like I've

150
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: been impressed with Easton Stick a little bit from the Chargers,

151
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: but Will Greer has not played well and he got

152
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 1: rave reviews coming out of the draft. It's a bummer

153
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: because Cam Newton got really good reviews in practice for

154
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: his arm looking great, like throwing the deep ball pretty well.

155
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: He's got the new motion. You're kind of excited to

156
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 1: see this new Cam. And now he's going to be

157
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: coming in to a brutal Week one matchup as it is,

158
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: with an injury. Even if he plays, you would think

159
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna try to limit him being their goal line,

160
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 1: you know, back, which he essentially is in that time,

161
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 1: and you just hate like going into this season that way.

162
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 1: I don't blame him, though, like everyone said, like it

163
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,679
Speaker 1: just shows you can't play your players in the preseason.

164
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: I just feel like that that's a little too easy.

165
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: Like certain teams, like every team is a little different,

166
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: certain teams believe that it's gonna help. If you're playing football,

167
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna be at risk. It's a bummer when they

168
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: get hurt in week one two, and it's not an

169
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: until it's gonna happen if you're playing football. The Patriots

170
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: thought it was important for Tom Brady to play football.

171
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: I think he did too, And it's like everyone's gonna

172
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: make their own call. But that doesn't mean him. West

173
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 1: nailed it with the bad luck. But I mean because

174
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: Newton he fractured a rib in a preseason game and

175
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: missed regular season action. To dance point, he's had a concussion.

176
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: He because I get there's some of these guys. I

177
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: like to call them just like a bug because they're

178
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: constantly getting the injury bug biting them left and right.

179
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: We're always talking about their injuries, a bug like he got.

180
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: Then it's like it's December. He gets into a random

181
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: car accident. You got, that's bad luck. It's bad luck.

182
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. My point being is that the

183
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: car accent a perfect example. That's rotten luck. And yeah,

184
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: injuries sucking there rotten luck too. But when they start

185
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: to pile up for a guy that has plays a

186
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: certain way, I would just be starting to get nervous

187
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,199
Speaker 1: if I was a Panthers fan. But he might want

188
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: to reconsider those glamour scooter shoots on his way to

189
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: the stadium for multiple reasons. And it is like you said,

190
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 1: he's got a very tough match up against the Rams,

191
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: greg And and it was a bummer watching a diminished

192
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: version of Newton labor through those last five or so

193
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: starts last season. And now you you have a situation

194
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: for the Panthers who just want to turn the page.

195
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: And now you might have a hobbled Newton in week one.

196
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: We'll see what kind of progress he makes as we

197
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: get closer to that Sunday. Moving on bad news on

198
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: the throne of Sleeves, Patriots safety Patrick Chung has been

199
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: indicted by a grand jury on a charge of cocaine possession. UH.

200
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: This and this occurred in Meredith, New Hampshire on June.

201
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: The felony arg is only one, UH charge Chung is facing.

202
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 1: Excuse me, the felony charge is the only one Chung

203
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: is facing. UH. No other individuals involved. He has a

204
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: court date coming up. He doesn't have to appear at it.

205
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 1: His lawyer can appear on his behalf. That's uh in

206
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: August twenty arraignment. So we'll see how this gets sorted out.

207
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 1: But Greg Chung is an important, important part of that

208
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: defense and this is a pretty heavy off the field

209
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: situation be hanging over him. Yeah, it's unclear what it's

210
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: gonna mean for his status. Whether could he be playing

211
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: week one, could he be suspended? Could he just be

212
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: away from the team for the whole Like, no one

213
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 1: has any idea. But to your point, a huge Patriots

214
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 1: fan who we all know, well, let's call him Burke,

215
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: I mean, texted me apoplectic after this, thinking that after Gilmore,

216
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: Stephan Gilmore, and Tom Brady, that Patrick Chung might be

217
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: the third most valuable Patriot Like, all right, let's calm

218
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: let's calm down there. I know, uh, he covers tight

219
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: ends well and he's versatile, but let's calm down with that.

220
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: It does mean though, that the Ron Harmon, who has

221
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: been a starter the last few years and some people

222
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: thought would maybe not make this team, might get traded

223
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 1: to one of those uh Patriots South or West. Uh.

224
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: Coming out of camp looks like he'll make the team.

225
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of my takeaway, because they're gonna

226
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: need him now. I'll planning though, because it sounds like

227
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 1: from when you piece together the report that an alarm

228
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: went off for something that alerted the police who were

229
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: going there to help obviously and assist, and then bang,

230
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: you know your house is not put together. There in

231
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: the house checking on what like a burglar alarm, I

232
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,839
Speaker 1: think to help the civilian that lives there instead the civilians.

233
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: I think maybe that's about the cops give a little

234
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: wink Patrick, clean up the snow something like that. They

235
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: feel differently, MEREDITHA knows how it operates in New Hand

236
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 1: and get the snowplow out, backing off the grid. This

237
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: big lake, the biggest lake in New Hampshire, Meredith is,

238
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: is Lake Winnipesauke, and it gets kind of wild up

239
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: in up there. It does that, but and I don't

240
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: know enough about that. I'm not obviously making any comment

241
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: about Patrick Chung's guilt or innocence, but it is interesting

242
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: that I feel like every six to nine months there's

243
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: some like mega criminal charge connected to the New England patriots.

244
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,839
Speaker 1: Here we just you know, connect the dots over the years.

245
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: I know everybody there's team players and front office officials

246
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: get in trouble from every organization. You've got quarterbacks you know,

247
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 1: you know, dispensing their phones and dumpsters because they don't

248
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 1: want those to be examined. You know, it's it's abroad.

249
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: I would just say take out the red string, you know,

250
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: the red string and criminal investigations, and then just go

251
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: basically year to year. It's gonna go through through line

252
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 1: Man Hunter season three. Yes, no, maybe so great? What

253
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: that that that they get. There's been a lot. There's

254
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: been a lot of gates. There's been a lot of

255
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: you know stuff, but not to get more. And they've

256
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: checked all the boxes, like at the level from petty

257
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: mdemeanors to capital murder and everything in between, like stumbling

258
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: naked into a police station. That too, is the ones

259
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 1: that are more humor based. Okay, I'm gonna move on.

260
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: It's too bad. Chunk has been a great story. You know,

261
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: he left, he left home, he came back. He's won

262
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: three rings since he's been back. You know, he's been

263
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: much better since they originally cut him back in the

264
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 1: day or traded him. This is the deepest Patriots defense

265
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 1: I remembering years. They're gonna be good again. All right,

266
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 1: let's move on Michael Crabtree. He's back two weeks after

267
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: working out for the Cardinals. Left without a deal, the

268
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: veteran White out agrees to terms with Arizona on a

269
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: one year deal. He joins a group of receivers led

270
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: by veteran Larry Fitzgerald, Christian Kirk, Keishawn Johnson, not keishn

271
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: Andy Isabella, and Jakim Butler. Kevin White, the former Bears

272
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: first round pick he got cut. I guess that's crab

273
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: Tree essentially replaces Kevin White on this depth chart. Crabtree

274
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: thirty one years old. Mark spent last season with the Ravens.

275
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: Had a big role in the offense, at least until

276
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson showed up um and had six hundred and

277
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: seven yards receiving three re touchdowns. A guy that maybe

278
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: finds a way to catch the ball in the end zone,

279
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 1: but not the most explosive guy at this point of

280
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: his career. I mean, I I gather that they brought

281
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: him in initially a obviously he's available, but that he

282
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: played under Mike Leach at Texas Tech, so he's very

283
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: familiar with the offense. And I think you know, you

284
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: opened Cardinals camp and there was this buzz about Kevin

285
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: White and where Kevin might White might end up in

286
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: the offense. For us, it's all wait and see, and

287
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: he's gone. And they also lost to Keim Butler, so

288
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: there's there's a spot there. But the Keyshawn Johnson news

289
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: is interesting to me because it was Josh Wine Fuss

290
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: of ESPN that said he may have had the best

291
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: training camp of anyone on the Cardinals roster veteran or

292
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 1: rookie alike. So they need they need people to step

293
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: up and turn into glue for Kyler Murray right away.

294
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: He kesha Johnson's a six round rookie, very shifty, quick.

295
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: They want to play with four receivers, and this show

296
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: is why, you know, when we project the starters, I

297
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: do this, and you know fan cee owners are drafting

298
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 1: Andy Isabella. It's just like, well, they're gonna have four receivers,

299
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: and they like the college evaluation Andy Isabel, and they

300
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: like Kim Butler, and that's gonna be there for and

301
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: you just never know with rookies. Isabella just doesn't look

302
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: like he's ready to go and to me. This is

303
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: basically where we don't want to play this guy. We

304
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: like Keishawan Johnson, and Crabtree's gonna be in there, and

305
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: that's our top four with with Kirk and Fitzgerald. I'd

306
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: like to point out that in the last two off seasons,

307
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: the two teams with among the worst wide receiver corps

308
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: in the league have said the way to get better

309
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: is to get rid of Michael Crabtree, and now a

310
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: team with one of the worst wide receiver corps in

311
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: the NFL has said a way to get better is

312
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: to bring in my I think he can still play.

313
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 1: He's savvy though. You know, remember there was that report

314
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: where they couldn't get a deal done with Crabtree two

315
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: weeks ago. What has he done in between? He fired

316
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: his agent and then he hired the same agent who

317
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: represents Kyler Murray and Cliff Kingsbury spot which seems like

318
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: a conflict of interest when you're representing the number one

319
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: overall picking the and the coach. And there's a lot

320
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: to that, you know, watching you agents, there's a lot

321
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: of young wide receivers on that roster and a young quarterback.

322
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: You know, crab she feels like to me was Bill

323
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: Parcels coined it once upon a time progress stopper. Perhaps,

324
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: perhaps let's move on. It's also a big play stopper. Cowboys.

325
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: Cowboys make a big deal, oh man, a big contract,

326
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: but not with one of the players you might expect.

327
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: They reached agreement on a long term deal earlier this

328
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 1: week with linebacker Jalen Smith. The Cowboys made the deal

329
00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: official after a rap sheet report. UH. Steven Jones said

330
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 1: Tuesday of the extension is for five years and it's

331
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 1: worth sixty four million, including thirty half thirty five and

332
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: a half million guaranteed. He's under contract through the season.

333
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: If you're a listener of this podcast, you've heard Chris

334
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: Westling singing the praises of Smith all throughout the eighteen season.

335
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 1: And he's such a great story. After what happened at

336
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: Notre Dame where he was he looked like a stone cold,

337
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: top five pick suffers terrible knee injury and you never

338
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: you're not sure if he's ever gonna be able to

339
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: play in the NFL. UH. It does affect his draft stock,

340
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 1: but the Cowboys took a chance to us. They took

341
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: him high in the second round. UH. He sat out

342
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 1: his rookie year and became one of the best livebackers

343
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: in football. Yeah, it's a great story. At one point

344
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 1: he had dropped foot syndrome and he could barely he

345
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: had no range of motion in his lower leg. It's

346
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: an amazing story. Nobody thought that he was going to

347
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,400
Speaker 1: come back and be one of the best linebackers in football,

348
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 1: which he was for the last few months of last

349
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: season along with Layton Vandersh. He's a guy that you

350
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 1: could tell even in his second but definitely last year,

351
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 1: his third year, he's such a leader for that team

352
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: that he's an impressive human. He talked right and and

353
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,159
Speaker 1: the Cowboys in training camp the just the way that

354
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 1: they would talk about it. Even in his even in

355
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 1: his second year, you could just tell the influence he

356
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: has over all them and the way he approaches and

357
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: the kind of the joy he has and the way

358
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: he talks about Layton Vandersch and the two of them

359
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,479
Speaker 1: seem like just a perfect pair to to sign forever.

360
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: And I saw some criticism that's like, you know, this

361
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: is a relatively team friendly deal, like he could have

362
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: gotten more money if you waited out, Like this is

363
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 1: a guy who had his entire career flash before his eyes.

364
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: Is happy to have it. He's two years away from

365
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: free agency, and I hate that where you're like trying

366
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 1: to get into someone else's money, saying that you should

367
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: have tried to get more money. It's like he's his

368
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 1: generations are are secured for you know, his son's and

369
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: his you know, in the next generation after that. Like,

370
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: don't don't tell people not to sign a big contract

371
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: if they want to shut up. And I mean the Cowboys,

372
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: you know. I can't think of a team in a

373
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: person more than Jerry Jones, who was attracted to high risk,

374
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 1: high reward draft picks and they aren't like Randy Gregory

375
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 1: not working out at this point and the essentially you

376
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,959
Speaker 1: could look at him and say, maybe you you stretched

377
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: on that one. But this was viewed that way too,

378
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: and it has worked out beautifully. And I like a

379
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: team that once you find that position group that is stacked,

380
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 1: you don't decide we're gonna keep one, move someone else

381
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 1: and go lower money at the position. So a lot

382
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 1: of teams do that and their general managers can't figure

383
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: out a way to keep all these guys keep this

384
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: group together. The defense has gotten so much better. And

385
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: I'll give Smith the last word because in his press

386
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: conference he said, pointing back to the Cowboys essentially taking

387
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: that risk on him in the second round, Here's what

388
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: he had to say. He took a risk, um, you know,

389
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: UH four point five million dollar risk, you know, had

390
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: I've never been able to play again, So me understanding

391
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: that it was my duty for them, UM to get

392
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: the return on their investment. And they've been able to

393
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: do that. And you know now fortunate enough to UH

394
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: to to really be a cowboy for life. Is this what?

395
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: It's what I wanted. It's a good story. I like

396
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: those stories. Now cowboys keep doing work, so don't have

397
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: to talk about contracts anymore. And three more to discuss.

398
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 1: It's not going away tonight. UH. Injury news from the

399
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: preseason UH Drew Lock on Monday Night Football preseason Edition

400
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: sprained UM his throwing hand and that's gonna cost him

401
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 1: a lot of time. It sets back the Broncos um

402
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: second round rookie UH to the point where he could

403
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: start the season on I are boomerang? Is that right? Mark? Yes?

404
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: But I hear some fleaks. Some people are saying I

405
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: I prefer I are a boomerang, And people are telling

406
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: me that they like boomerang. I are that that rolls

407
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: off to that sounded better person. I like Again, it

408
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,479
Speaker 1: only goes back to the fact that it's not sticking

409
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: on any level as a true term because people can't

410
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: even describe what it's happening, Like Erica, if you can

411
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: describe in you know, thirty words or less, what is

412
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: I are boomerang? Put it on the spot, well, like

413
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 1: in football terms. Yes, it's like people that bounce off

414
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: and on the injury report. I mean that's about She's

415
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,479
Speaker 1: very close. It's like a new it's like a new

416
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: role for new listeners. You know, injured reserve used to

417
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: mean you're out for the season, but now you can

418
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 1: put a player on injured reserve and they can come

419
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,360
Speaker 1: back as early as I believe weeks is the earliest.

420
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: But isn't it two players now? Yeah, you can do

421
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: two players now that and that is I R boomerang.

422
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: I believe you said bounce back. And it's sort of

423
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 1: like the idea that the boomerang, you're sending them far

424
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 1: out of field and you know, if it's not our frisbee,

425
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: that that that things in the woods. This is almost

426
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: like it almost takes Vic Fangio and John Elway off

427
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: the hook because it would have been embarrassing when Kevin

428
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,880
Speaker 1: Kevin Helgan was their backup week one, which I think

429
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 1: he would have been. Whether Lock was hurt or not,

430
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know that for sure, but

431
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 1: I just think luck. One of my takeaways from this,

432
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 1: you know, uh, preseason is just there. You know, Joe

433
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: Flacco was playing this season, I would have thought, right,

434
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: but even if the rest of the team is terrible

435
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: or if some you know, if he doesn't play as well,

436
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: if they were like one in three, I would have expected. Okay,

437
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 1: now everyone's gonna be talking Lock Locks not playing until

438
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: it's week sixteen, and if the Broncos are out of it, Like,

439
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't think there's any change I'm saying.

440
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 1: If you know, boomerang, boomerang are sort of like a

441
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 1: side piece. You can keep them there, you know, you

442
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: kind of keep them out of the limelight. You don't,

443
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 1: you know, sorry for a while, right, but then you

444
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: know what they say West they always you can always

445
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: dig them back up and always dig it back up.

446
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 1: Side piece, and someone buries Yard like because it doesn't

447
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: cost you all this money, right, it doesn't. You know,

448
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: you're not You're not going out to dinner every week. Yeah,

449
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 1: you're not going out to dinner every week. They can

450
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 1: cost money, I would have. I mean they're they're paid

451
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: a full salary, so it breaks down a little there.

452
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 1: But by the way, has anyone ever seen they come back?

453
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: Has anyone ever seen someone successfully throw a boomerang? It's impossible.

454
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: I owned one as a child. Did you ever throw

455
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: it and it came back to you? Or even now?

456
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: You can basically go straight and then hooks right and

457
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: then lands about thirty seven feet away from me. You're

458
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: running now. They suck And Australian listeners you know it too.

459
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, over under onets you're gonna

460
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: get from Australia, right, and I it's another reminder of

461
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 1: how much better life is just in general, just in

462
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: terms of like quality of life now than than before

463
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,679
Speaker 1: in most of the world. That's about all the mental now,

464
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: there's a lot. At some point though, when they invented

465
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 1: the boomerang, it's like, Wow, that's the best entertainment option

466
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: we've got, Like this is the biggest revolution that you

467
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 1: know we've had it entertainment in decades. It was a hunting,

468
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 1: hunting tool, I believe, So it's for sustenance and surviving

469
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: with facts. Finally in the news, step behind the red velvet,

470
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: Gentleman Matt Naggy's back in the headlines for all the

471
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 1: wrong reasons. We've been tracking this. I mean, no podcast

472
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,879
Speaker 1: has been hitting this story harder. How the Bears have

473
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: been handling their search for a kicker After the double doink,

474
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: Cody Parky s I drops a hammer. I don't know

475
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: if you guys had a chance to read this. It's

476
00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 1: required reading if this is a saga that interests you, uh,

477
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: really digging in on what exactly the Bears have done

478
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 1: uh this offseason? They brought in nine kickers nine kickers,

479
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: brought him in like cattle for slaughter, and herded them

480
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: together and used the bizarre scoring system that byzantine is

481
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: that working to try to explain how they were progressing,

482
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: and then cut them at will, had little notes, humiliated

483
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: them and didn't treat them like football players. And then

484
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: they were left with four and now we're down to one.

485
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: Poor poor guy. Who's the last guy who I'm really

486
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: scared for? I don't think he's going to be their

487
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: week one kicker. And a competition usually you bring in

488
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: like at most three or four kickers if you're really looking.

489
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: The Bears brought in nine and and it's a really

490
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: great story about in some way draconian, dude, this is

491
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 1: it was all the kickers, like an old Hollywood casting call.

492
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: If you can't take the pressure of a kicking competition,

493
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: and what are you gonna do with five seconds on

494
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: the cloth? Here's what Notre Dame's justin you and while

495
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: you're in lockstep with Matt Naggie. But everybody else thought

496
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: it was ridiculous. I was connected to it, justin you,

497
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: And a kicker for Notre Dame had this to say,

498
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 1: it's not efficient for the team to continuously beat that

499
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: one dead horse the whole time. You have to build

500
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: a system of confidence for your kicker. I don't think

501
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: that's how the Bears are running it. And and shout

502
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: out to you and for actually speaking out a lot

503
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: of other kickers. They and they spoke anonymously. You know

504
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: he's there are other Bears kickers. If you go look

505
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: around their comments, I think what they're what they were

506
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: sort of saying in general, as camp press On was

507
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: exhaustion with the day to day pressure, with the forty

508
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: three yards stuff, augusta silence. How soft are these I'm

509
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 1: not arguing that they're not. I know that's what that's

510
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: the point. But Bill Parcels used to walk up the

511
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: Vinitary as a rookie and start putting voodoo on him

512
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 1: and walking across his path in the It's a results business,

513
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:58,640
Speaker 1: and the Bears coaches have gotten terrible results, So shouldn't

514
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: they bear some blame here that whatever they're doing? Five

515
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: million dollars? Yeah, someone should have signed your buddy Myers.

516
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 1: He was available with Jason Meyers. Can we do that?

517
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: Can we start some games before we say it's not working?

518
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: That's fair? I don't well, my point is this whole

519
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 1: process isn't working, because if I could, I would. I'm

520
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: guessing none of these players will play for the Bears

521
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: in a regular season game, including Nettie panierro their their

522
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 1: their kicker will be someone that's on another roster. Yeah,

523
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: because then you are how much money if you sunk

524
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 1: into airline flights and hotels and all this other and

525
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 1: you're just gonna take Matt Ryan off the golf course

526
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: in a week. Why is it? Why is it Matt

527
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 1: Bryan playing for anybody? I don't know. I didn't want

528
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: to bring up some of the Jets to quietly sign him,

529
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: but you know I have a responsibility listeners to mention

530
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 1: that he would make sense. So you think your influence

531
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 1: is that great that audience keep stayed. Front office men

532
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 1: in the Bears complex are now going to figure out

533
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: that Matt Bryan's available. Well, him going to Floren Park.

534
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: That's what's happening in the new is all right? Let's

535
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 1: do some quick preseason Thursday takeaways. I am so tired

536
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: of preseason and I respect you guys if you have

537
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 1: a ton of notes to share on this, and we

538
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 1: could do a beefy twenty minutes segment on the seven

539
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 1: games that were played last night. Um, but I'm not

540
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna share it too much, so I'm gonna let you

541
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,239
Speaker 1: guys handle the bulk of this. Greg get us going.

542
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: What was something from the Thursday? Please? Week one? You know,

543
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: there was a very significant development in the Redskins game,

544
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: which is that Darius guys played football at the pro

545
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: level for the first time and looked good. And that

546
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 1: is a big step for a guy who still hadn't

547
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: been cleared until this week to to be in a

548
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: game and and looked like kind of the Darius guys

549
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,239
Speaker 1: that we saw in highlights in college. I mean there,

550
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say he looked great, but there were enough

551
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 1: to build off of for a first appearance that you're like, Okay,

552
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna be a factor week one. That's a big

553
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: That was a big develop. There were a couple of

554
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: runs where I wondered if his speed was all there,

555
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: but he laid a nasty, stiff farm on someone. They

556
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: gave him the first six carries and eleven you know all,

557
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: and they gave him a catch. And for me, after

558
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: you know, you talk about him, you annoyed what behind

559
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: the scenes, how hard they're working to get their body back.

560
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: And it's a good story for a team that his

561
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: weapons depleted, a team that could use some you know,

562
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: good news, a team that lost a tight end last night.

563
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: You know, we joke about when I make my jokes

564
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 1: about Tyler Eifford and how I believe in him and

565
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 1: he gets hurt every year, So don't take them seriously.

566
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 1: With Jordan Reid, I mean, and I hope this isn't

567
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: a serious head injury has well. I mean, that was

568
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: one of the worst hits I've ever seen a player

569
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: take to head I think any player. I mean, I

570
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 1: feel really bad for him. And I've seen some joking

571
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: Jordan read stuff today, but like, that was a vicious

572
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,280
Speaker 1: brain injury. And he's had He's had a lot of them.

573
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: But man, that was a tough hit to watch on

574
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: replay and in the preseason games. Uh we Mark and

575
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: I can tag team this one because we both watched

576
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: Jaguars Dolphins and um, I thought that Josh Allen the

577
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: Jaguar is number one pick there are there may be

578
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 1: a couple of teams regretting not drafting him. He is

579
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: a huge player. The size speed combination is is very impressive.

580
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: And he to me, he looked, like I told Mark,

581
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: like a roadhouse bouncer during the middle of a midnight melee,

582
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 1: just hip tossing guys out the saloon doors while somebody's

583
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: breaking a chair over his back. He's just going through

584
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: the Dolphins offensive line like they weren't there. Yes, I

585
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: and I you know, and I for me, I have

586
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: question marks about how the John D. Philippo and Nick

587
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: Foles um offense is gonna work in their overall Doug

588
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: Marown world and everything that you know. Leonard Fournette looked

589
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: good last night, I thought, which was which was a

590
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: nice development. But they're gonna need to keep restocking defense

591
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: over and over. And Josh Allen, there's a play if

592
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: you can go find this on Twitter. Obviously you're playing

593
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: us at the listener anymore. Who heard that? You know

594
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: there is a Dolphins right side of the line with

595
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: Jesse Davis and Dion Calhoun, two guys that just got

596
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: absolutely Josh Allen just to kind of both of them

597
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: with his arms and just swept them aside and buried

598
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: a running back like nine yards in the backfield. This

599
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: is a guy that I think anyone who drafted anyone

600
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: else above him, and the all the reasons to pick

601
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: who they did are going to be measured by how

602
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: Josh Allen does in the in The most impressive plate

603
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: to me was one where he flexed out and covered

604
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: a running back in the passing and I think it

605
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 1: was Kalen Blaje and destroyed him. And you just don't

606
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: see that from guys that are essentially playing a defensive

607
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: line and the the announcer kept making forget who was

608
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: a good point that Alan's gonna change up the way

609
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: they do defense because they're always very traditional for three.

610
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: But he's more of a stand up guy and when

611
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: he's out there, it just makes him more flexible. And

612
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: not as if that defense needed any more. Good news

613
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: be fun when Josh. When Josh Rosen led that third

614
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: team play ninety nine yard drive, which was impressive, I thought,

615
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: all right, that's cool, and I'll do it with Josh

616
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: Allen out there. Right, Josh Rosen has gotten some pop

617
00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: and we'll switch into that last few weeks. And he's man.

618
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: He makes I said this even in Arizona, he makes

619
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: some really impressive of throws and he did that in

620
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,239
Speaker 1: this game. But I didn't watch the game and think

621
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: all like, oh, Josh Rosen made his move is it's

622
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: one drive and it was against the backups. And Fitzpatrick

623
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: has not looked sharp in the preseason, which is worth noting.

624
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: But Flora's seems to have already decided based on practices

625
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: that there really isn't a competition. And Troy Aikman you

626
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: tweeted about, I mean, Troy Aikman made a comment and

627
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: you know, you obviously he's hearing stuff and spending time

628
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: with the coaches. That it made it sound like Josh

629
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 1: Rosen just has not really grasped the offense or picked

630
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: it up the way that you'd want him to, and

631
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: that they just feel more comfortable, and that Ryan Fitzpatrick

632
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: has looked bad in games, but the whole Fitzpatrick experience

633
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: has the coaching staff feeling much more comfortable. I read behind,

634
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: I read his I read his comment and basically said

635
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick's starting week one barring him getting you know, like

636
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: a rock landing on him from the sky. You get

637
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 1: the vibe that there's still hopefully not too big. You

638
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: get the vibe that he the baggage connected to him

639
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: is still there. Charlie Casserley, Uh, you know our own

640
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: Charlie Castle, who was on the show. We didn't get

641
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: a chance to talk about it, but Charlie made news

642
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: UM earlier this year UM for making critical comments or

643
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 1: based on a conversation he had on Josh Rosen. And

644
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: you know, you wonder if he's gonna get it Rosen,

645
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 1: but he's gonna start, right, he mean eventually, and he

646
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: has made some great throws and Aikman, who you know

647
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: his has seen in Rosen play a lot u c

648
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: l A Grant. I mean he said he thinks he's

649
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,360
Speaker 1: one of the most talented throwers he's ever seen period.

650
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:35,680
Speaker 1: Roen just coming from Choi Aikman, and I can kind

651
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 1: of see why you would say that. Man, he has

652
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: he has two or three every game that are just

653
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: their unbelievable play. So at some point they're just gonna

654
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: want to see that. That offensive line looks so bad

655
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: that I don't know there, no one's gonna succeed there.

656
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: He's like the most mobile guy, and but he made

657
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: a nice throw and he kind of rolled out and

658
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: put one right in the receiver's hands, rolled to his right. Uh. Yeah,

659
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: the tools are definitely there. Speaking of tools, the young

660
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: quarterbacks Daniel Joe continues to look really good for the

661
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: Giants Danny Dines, which is nice. I saw that to

662
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: pop up. Uh, and you know he's twenty five or thirty.

663
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: He don't read too much into preseason stats, obviously, but

664
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 1: thirty three sixty two touchdowns. He's lost some fumbles, but

665
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: hasn't thrown an interception, taken two sacks, and Eli's barely

666
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 1: played and this is the best possible outcome for Daniel Jones.

667
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 1: What's happened the last three weeks that he is planted

668
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: that seed now in not just Pat Shermer's mind, but

669
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: all the way up the front office chain, that you've

670
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: got a kid here that looks like he can handle it,

671
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: like he is not. You're not hearing any reports about

672
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. Uh, he's not. He's too raw, he's not

673
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 1: ready yet. And on the field he doesn't look that way.

674
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: And I was thinking about it with when you'll take

675
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 1: a look at the last let's say, you know, a

676
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 1: year and a half now, when the Giants made the

677
00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 1: decision to take se Kwon Barkley, UM and Sam Donald

678
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 1: went the next pick to the Yets. And if Donald

679
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,439
Speaker 1: turns into an All Pro and wins the Super Bowl

680
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: and UM all that, the Giants will always look bad.

681
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: But you know what if Barkley, who has all the

682
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: tools to be a Hall of Fame running back, let's

683
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: face it, and he had the best rookie year arguably

684
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 1: of any running back ever last year. If even if

685
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones is what Andy Dalton, you can't really kill

686
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: the Giants for the decision they made if Barkley is

687
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: as special as that, if you went the next year

688
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: and got a quarterback who can be good to pair

689
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 1: with a potential all time running back. And I don't

690
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 1: want to get to hyperbolic there, maybe they didn't mess

691
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: it up so bad. Well Barkley is Jim Brown, for instance,

692
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: then okay, you're gonna look back and say, no one.

693
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone says that Barkley is the suspect

694
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: part of what they did. It was just not planning

695
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: around the quarterback or hoping that they looked into one

696
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 1: this year. If Daniel Jones works out, it's Dave Getleman,

697
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: and we already you know, there's already the jokes out

698
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: on Twitter, which make a lot of sense about Dave

699
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: Getleman sitting back in his easy chair in his office

700
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 1: saying f you to essentially Mike Francesca and every single

701
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: media person ever that ripped on me. He's got to

702
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: enjoy it, like I'm kind of a Daniel Jones makes

703
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:12,959
Speaker 1: the Giants more fun to watch. One of the things

704
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: I liked in this game because he's had really good

705
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: past protection in general, and so quarterbacks are gonna look

706
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: better that way. But he did have a couple of

707
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: throws against pressure in this game, and he's not afraid

708
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: to just rip it there down thirty five yards with

709
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: pressure in his face, and it almost makes it made

710
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: me think about that. I I think I've been a

711
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: little anti Giants over the years on this podcast, But um,

712
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: I think once the Daniel Jones era starts, that's all

713
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: over and I'm gonna enjoy Dave Gentelman just like bringing

714
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 1: up the Daniel Jones draft pick in every conversation and

715
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,800
Speaker 1: talking trash to basically every reporter forever if that happens,

716
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: and you'd be delightful. And I think that, you know,

717
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 1: you can talk about him all day, but you mentioned it.

718
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 1: Their line, You've got Kevin Zeidler, Will Hernandez. Looks like

719
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: they've found someone very stable for long. Their line was

720
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 1: such a disaster for so along that he stepped in

721
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 1: at the perfect time. They So there's a problem, though,

722
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 1: I think that's under the range was given him the business.

723
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 1: There was a sequence with Jones where he completed a

724
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,319
Speaker 1: downfield pass about thirty five yards, then got wallped, got

725
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 1: destroyed on like almost like a double hit from each

726
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 1: side lost the ball got up and then one or

727
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 1: two plays later, Standard stood tall in the pocket and

728
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 1: put one right down to the goal line that led

729
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 1: to a touchdown. Like that stuff is pretty impressive. One

730
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: note on Eli. I think it's worth noting that David Deal,

731
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 1: former Giants offensive lineman, told Anthony Monio's current Bengals UH

732
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 1: analyst that he hasn't seen Eli throw with this much

733
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: velocity in a number of years. I feel like some

734
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: former Giant Eli teammates says that every I mean, but

735
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 1: every quarterback is getting that compliment this summer. It's got

736
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: a little hair as like it looks, you know, but

737
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 1: then you watch you watch anything he's throwing deep, and

738
00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: then you watch Daniel Jones, and who do you want

739
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:59,239
Speaker 1: anybody else throw out? I would say, I looked at

740
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,239
Speaker 1: the Raven Eagles game, and who knows what's going to

741
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: happen with either one of these quarterbacks this year. But

742
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: it was interesting to watch the journey of my boy,

743
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 1: Trace McSorley, who I've brought up a few times on

744
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: this show. Number One, I love what the Ravens did here.

745
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 1: There was one play in the very early part of

746
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 1: the game where they essentially handed it off to later

747
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,839
Speaker 1: a running back to Justice Hill where on a play

748
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 1: where they had three offensive linemen in front of him

749
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 1: and six people like split out wide. The plague totally failed,

750
00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,720
Speaker 1: but I loved it. But McSorley in general like looked

751
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: interesting to me enough where I think you could find

752
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: ways to use him to some degree on the field

753
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 1: in places. If you were going to do that with

754
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,360
Speaker 1: r G three, I would rather do it try it

755
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 1: with Trace. McSorley at this point made the team last night.

756
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 1: He should have. And then I think on the other side,

757
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 1: Josh McCown, it kind of just shows you that, I mean,

758
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: there was a play where at some point they feel

759
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 1: like in four or five days he's learned the protections

760
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 1: and the entire scheme to such a degree and audibles

761
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,120
Speaker 1: that he did so much pre snap that he walked

762
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,520
Speaker 1: over during a time out to the sideline and Carson

763
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 1: Wentz and the coaches were all giggling with him because

764
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 1: they couldn't believe how much he picked up and that

765
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 1: you can just roam around network television for a while

766
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: or cable television and then if you've done this long enough,

767
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 1: roll back into a team and unfurled two hundreds something

768
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 1: yards and make J. J. R Sego Whiteside look like

769
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: he should be on the first team offense quarterback, right,

770
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean, but McCown still has it. And it makes

771
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,439
Speaker 1: me wonder either some of the backups around the league

772
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: and say, you did not yank Josh McCown had retirement.

773
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: Some of these clowns roaming. You got Kevin Hogan? Please,

774
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,320
Speaker 1: he played against first team or his last year and

775
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: couldn't play anymore. I'm not saying Josh Josh McCown is

776
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 1: always going to be Josh McCown, though he's going to

777
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: come in and do something. I love Josh McCown some

778
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: bad things the right. His first three drives last night,

779
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: it looked like he should have stayed in retirement, and

780
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden he caught fire. If the

781
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 1: Eagles front office decided to do it, they're front office

782
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 1: side by in two right now. And so I like

783
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 1: the move. I am wary of UH. I hate the move.

784
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: I like it. I'm wary of buying into UH any preseason,

785
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: but this does look like the best Patriots defensive a

786
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 1: little while, and in that game. Again, it's the preseason.

787
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: But if Cam Newton hadn't got hurt, the story would

788
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: have been. You know, the Panthers starting offense got steam rolled.

789
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 1: They had They averaged less than two yards per play

790
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 1: against the Patriots when the two starters were out there

791
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,840
Speaker 1: like they were just guys are flying all over and

792
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: it's guys who have been in the system a long time,

793
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: and it's a very deep secondary. I think Belichick is

794
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: loving that he's the coordinator for this specific defense because

795
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: I think they're primed. Can I ask one question, why

796
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: are we going up to uh is it the Ottawa

797
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: Blue Bombers field and finding out hours before the game

798
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 1: that the NFL teams don't like where the end zona's

799
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 1: position and suddenly we're playing an NFL preseason game on

800
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: an eight yard field that looks somewhat suspect to begin with.

801
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: I know there's probably people even inside this building that

802
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: would be annoyed in bringing that up, But like, why

803
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: aren't we three or four months ahead of times scoping

804
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,840
Speaker 1: that out and saying this is appropriate and we have

805
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: teams sign off or we don't. I was like, are

806
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 1: they going to count the stats from this game? This

807
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: is ridiculous. They're played on an eight yard and this

808
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 1: comes what this comes a year after Mexico City fiasco

809
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 1: where the field was wet so they couldn't get it

810
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: safe enough for the players, I mean the Packers for

811
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: for those who hadn't heard the story, they were going

812
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: to play their starters in this game. The Raiders were

813
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: not anyways, but they decided not to because of this

814
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 1: ad yard funky. The Packers lost first round linebacker Rashaun Garrett. Well,

815
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: we don't know how serious it is, but carted off

816
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 1: the field? Can I do it real quickly? Round field?

817
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 1: Ryan Finley, Bengals quarterback. I think they have something impressive there.

818
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: They've got something interesting behind Andy Dalton, he has looked

819
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 1: really good three weeks in a row. Accurate, savvy um

820
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown Ravens rookie first rounder back in plane finally

821
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: looked pretty good And my favorite thing of the preseason

822
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: so far. Matt Millen back in the booth. This we

823
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: thought he was on death doorstep. He was, to quote

824
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: damnit Scheck, not just surviving but living. He's dropping lines

825
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: like h like later Raiders linebackers drop in interceptions, and

826
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 1: he says, I got I've seen better hands on the clock.

827
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 1: A great broadcaster, and it annoys me, of course, he's

828
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 1: going to be remembered for his time as the general manager,

829
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,200
Speaker 1: and he's gone to college in terms of broadcasting. But

830
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 1: people are like, why should we listen to Matt Millan?

831
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: Like as it brought, It's like, well, what does a

832
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 1: lot of broadcasting? It doesn't mean that you're not a

833
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 1: smart person who's really good. He's always been one of

834
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:38,280
Speaker 1: my favorite announcers. It's a different skill set. Matt Millen

835
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,839
Speaker 1: got a heart transplant. You cannot be closer to death

836
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: store than when you you literally have your heart taken

837
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 1: out of your body and you're given the heart of

838
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: another human being. That's pretty cool living up Matt Millan.

839
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 1: By the way, it is Winnipeg, not Ottawa. For the

840
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,399
Speaker 1: people in Canada that we're about to tweeted me don't

841
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 1: want to hear about it. It can love Cannada, beautiful nation.

842
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,359
Speaker 1: That's what's happening in the preseason. Let's go Week one.

843
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 1: Get here. Greg wrote a banger, There's no two ways

844
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 1: around it. Two thousand nine. Here's the headline NFL dot

845
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 1: Com The headlines, what is it? You had something to

846
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: do with it? Two thousand nineteen NFL preseason Colon training

847
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 1: Camp Surprises for all thirty two teams like that a

848
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 1: little bit s c oh, but quite direct. Uh. So

849
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 1: you went through every team you threw out a surprise. So, Greg,

850
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 1: why don't you kind of steer the ship here with

851
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: of your list of thirty two surprises? And actually, if

852
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 1: you if you read the piece, Mark, did you read it?

853
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,040
Speaker 1: I know you did outline this highlights highlight this guy's

854
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: prepped start fired today, Mark Um, if you read it

855
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 1: the way, Mark, did you know you get more than

856
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: thirty two surprises? Hereses, I'd say there are fifty seven

857
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 1: surprises bridged id let's say forty six to fifty seven

858
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 1: surprises in this content. Greg, that list of seven, what

859
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: were some of yours that you like the most? Were

860
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: the most interesting intriguing? Well, Quentin Williams is start at

861
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: nose tackle didn't take According to Connor Hughes of the Athletic.

862
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 1: You know, they thought they'd huge start inside between Henry

863
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 1: Anderson uh and Leonard Williams, and I think they've decided

864
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 1: that's not his best position. I don't think this is

865
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,399
Speaker 1: a huge deal, but I think he's gonna probably start

866
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,280
Speaker 1: the year rotating, you know, maybe coming off the bench,

867
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,840
Speaker 1: which to me was a little bit of a surprise

868
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 1: learning that, and they're waiting. Doesn't mean he hasn't looked

869
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 1: good in in the preseason, but he's not going to

870
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: be a guy who just steps out there and is

871
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 1: playing fifty snaps. Maybe trade Leonard Williams to the Texans

872
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,279
Speaker 1: for Jadeveon Clowney and then slide over Quentin Williams to

873
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 1: the end. Or he could play every snap and then

874
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: you have a game changing clowning in the mix as well.

875
00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,040
Speaker 1: It's not that crazy. I've warm it up to your

876
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 1: trade idea. How many defensive linemen are they gonna move

877
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: over the course of four or five years? That's what

878
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,720
Speaker 1: they do. There's a chur and it's an there's always

879
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: chur And in the NFL, mark exact lest year the

880
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: Cowboys and you resigned the entire position group and stay

881
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: strong for the next six seven years. What was that?

882
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:13,879
Speaker 1: The sons of anarchy? What Wilkerson? Richard? Oh yeah, yes,

883
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: that was it? Grown up and moved on? What else, Craig?

884
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 1: How about DJ Chark? Remember him in the first round

885
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 1: pick of the Jaguars a year ago, who had kind

886
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: of a disastrous wasn't at the top of the second round. Uh,

887
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 1: he is now one of their top three receivers. They

888
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 1: came into the season knowing who their top three receivers are,

889
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 1: and it doesn't include Marquise Lee, and it doesn't include

890
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 1: Keelan Cole who we used to uh, you know write

891
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 1: Hosan is about the bank on this podcast. And so

892
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 1: it's now Chris Conley he used to be with Kansas City.

893
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 1: It's d D. Westbrook who Uh, Mark's boy John D.

894
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,320
Speaker 1: Philippo said is the best route runner he's ever coached,

895
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: which includes Stefon Diggs and Adam is in your stable

896
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: of boys Mark in two no reason not to think

897
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:01,359
Speaker 1: he's a great guy. And uh, it's d J. Chark

898
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: who ESPN called their preseason training camp m v P.

899
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 1: So he kind of came out of nowhere and he's

900
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: going to have a role in there. Speaking of a

901
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 1: preseason and training camp m vps. And this was a

902
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: bit of a saucy subject on the Fantasy Extravaganza. Both

903
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 1: The Athletic and ESPN named the Shawan Jackson the Eagles

904
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:24,440
Speaker 1: training Camp m v P, which Greg Astuteley points out

905
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 1: not a sentence he expected to write in nineteen Um

906
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 1: is it possible that we get a vintage D Jacks. Yes,

907
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,399
Speaker 1: I have. I think him in Tampa last year. He's

908
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,560
Speaker 1: been so underrated that he's looked like the same de

909
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,320
Speaker 1: Shaun Jackson the whole time. But Jameis Winston is not

910
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: great throwing the deep ball, and that just wasn't a

911
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 1: very good offense in general, and that he's looked really good.

912
00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 1: That's my opinion. What is a vintage D ject season.

913
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look that up. While you guys argue eight

914
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 1: yards four touched him at his peak, he was a

915
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: guy who could average eighteen to twenty yards per sept.

916
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: He's just I can't remember a guy that old fast.

917
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,399
Speaker 1: Maybe I mean Darryl Green. Certainly there, there's certainly been something,

918
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 1: but man, he hasn't lost any speed. He led the

919
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,359
Speaker 1: NFL in yards perception last year at eighteen point nine

920
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:13,959
Speaker 1: over one catches. Dan, I think you're not you're gonna

921
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,440
Speaker 1: like that. This is out there. This caught my eye.

922
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 1: Down in Carolina, a long time Panthers veteran kicker Graham

923
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 1: Gano could lose his job to someone named Joey Sly.

924
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 1: Sounds fake, which is an even bigger surprise than cam

925
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 1: Newton's deep all reported looking better than ever during camp

926
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: until we say, you're welcome on the kicking corner. But

927
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:38,399
Speaker 1: I want to keep these good kickers are gonna get

928
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: You need a hush hush off the radar. And I

929
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 1: was gonna be kicking for the Bears, right, one of

930
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:45,360
Speaker 1: these guys is for the Bears. You know, maybe I

931
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 1: wouldn't mind the brows of you guys gonna have Sam ficking.

932
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to. And maybe it's is someone got

933
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: a trade for Sly who has preparedively. Heesless looked so good,

934
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,000
Speaker 1: and Goo had a pretty iffy year last year. And

935
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,080
Speaker 1: I was just not healthy yet. That's that's part to

936
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 1: the issue. Slide's got a leg. I want that's a

937
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: good jersey, Joey Slack, that's a great what happened a

938
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 1: great name? Who do you want? Sam Ficken? Joey Sly?

939
00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: You could trust him. He'll get the job done. Maybe

940
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 1: can't trust him actually, but you know he'll get it done.

941
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 1: He'll get what he wants. Right. I think it was

942
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,359
Speaker 1: good that you noted all these for like the third

943
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,880
Speaker 1: or fourth year in a real this pile up of

944
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 1: maladies and injuries in San Francisco. It feels I feel

945
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 1: like ten years from now we're gonna get um, like

946
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: an Aaron Brockovich type movie about what is happening to

947
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 1: the drinking water around the facility. I mean it's it's

948
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 1: like something is going on here and it's ridiculous. I mean,

949
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: something unusual is one. That's the football movie we need. Uh.

950
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 1: You know Carlos Hide not so long ago, was you know,

951
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 1: the golden Boy in San Francisco and didn't work out

952
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 1: in Cleveland and bounced around. And now Greg I'm quite

953
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,320
Speaker 1: a surprise potentially that he might not even make the

954
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 1: final fifty three in Kansas City. Gave him eight hundred

955
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 1: thousand guaranteed. And this is where our editors, you know,

956
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: Gennaro Police, what a great jot or I had the

957
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,479
Speaker 1: wrong signed bonus. He just he just fixed it. Didn't

958
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 1: even say brag about it. I noticed that when I

959
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,440
Speaker 1: reread it, I was like, oh, sorry, he got they

960
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,759
Speaker 1: got there almost a million dollars. And Darwin Thompson and

961
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:31,279
Speaker 1: former cornerback Traymont Smith, who's like a special teamer who

962
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,840
Speaker 1: converted to running back just a few weeks ago, is

963
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 1: going to make the team over Carlos Side. It's a

964
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 1: bad sign if you're Carlos Side. Quick breaking news, breaking news.

965
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: Ricky Hollywood Taylor Luan, who the All Pro Titans left tackle,

966
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,960
Speaker 1: who made it in passionate plea when word got out

967
00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 1: that he was going to be suspended for violating the

968
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 1: league's performance enhancing UH substances policy. Well, it didn't work out.

969
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: His his appeal to the league didn't change anything, so

970
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: he's he's out. The first four games of the twenty

971
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,720
Speaker 1: s did a light detector test, which many people apparently

972
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: don't believe it. Also, if you, I mean I understand

973
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,840
Speaker 1: scientifically run up on teller Luan at all. I mean

974
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 1: I know many facts. There are some interesting facts about

975
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:20,439
Speaker 1: the tailor one out there. I'm just saying I don't

976
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 1: know the guys. I believe it was an impassioned plea.

977
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:28,160
Speaker 1: Have you watched the current season of Mind Hunter? Uh,

978
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: I will be doing that soon. One of the serial

979
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 1: killers they find a book stash in his in his

980
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 1: drawer how to beat a light detector test, and then

981
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 1: he proceeded to beat the lot of lot of tector tests. Um,

982
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 1: let's go on, Greg, how about the Steelers defense? I

983
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 1: went west to jump in here too. Let's talk some

984
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:52,399
Speaker 1: Sam Aguavin. Okay, now you know how to say his name, Sam, Well, yeah,

985
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,320
Speaker 1: he's been running with the starters the Dolphins. This guy's

986
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,400
Speaker 1: while Kiko Alonso is out with an undisclosed injury and

987
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 1: Greg has opined may not even make the team. Sam Aguavin,

988
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 1: former CFL player, is playing alongside Sam Baker, who looks

989
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 1: really good. Yeah, Jerome Baker who looked Yeah, he had

990
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 1: Jerome break game and he's supposedly look good. This is

991
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:17,480
Speaker 1: what happens when new coaches come in. Sometimes there they

992
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: had a second round, picking Rae Kwon McMillan, who might

993
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,880
Speaker 1: not make the team, Kiko Alonso, who is kind of,

994
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: you know, with the old regime, and they've got their

995
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: their new guys. If nothing else, they gotta try some

996
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 1: young players and see what happens. Kigo Alonso is kind

997
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 1: of a good villain to have on your team. He's

998
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: a he's an esther. I could see him landing with

999
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 1: the Raiders about three weeks. How about the Steelers defensive back.

1000
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 1: I feel like that's been a trouble spot forever and

1001
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 1: maybe this is just camp pipe Like I'm not too

1002
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,680
Speaker 1: excited about Steven Nelson, who they gave a lot of

1003
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,840
Speaker 1: money to was a Chief's cornerback. But they they're saying

1004
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: Cameron Sutton and Already Burns, who are two pretty high

1005
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 1: draft picks, both had really good camps, especially Sutton, and

1006
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,560
Speaker 1: that Edmunds, their safety who was their first round pick

1007
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 1: a year a go to, is really coming out in

1008
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,800
Speaker 1: his second year. Joe Hayden, who they've really loved. I

1009
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 1: think they're going to give him a long term contract. Uh,

1010
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:09,839
Speaker 1: since he's been in Pittsburgh. Suddenly that secondary looks pretty good.

1011
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin has the has the defense, Like, why is

1012
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 1: this defense not good? It should be really good. I

1013
00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 1: I don't know why. It's like, there's no excuse for

1014
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: it not to be a top eight to ten defense.

1015
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: I think it's really talented. People are very annoyed with

1016
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 1: our ability to constantly bag on the Detroit Lions. But

1017
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:31,120
Speaker 1: you didn't note that Matthew Stafford's practice reports, et cetera

1018
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,040
Speaker 1: have been up and down. It's throwing with a lot

1019
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: of zip this summer. Well, where are we are we

1020
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,280
Speaker 1: feeling good? I mean, I don't know what to expect.

1021
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,840
Speaker 1: It's Darryl Bevil, who's kind who changes his offenses depending

1022
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: on what team. He said, but that they've just been

1023
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: you know, you had those joint practices with the Patriots

1024
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:50,560
Speaker 1: Stafford and just in general, the writers there have just

1025
00:52:50,680 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: been saying that the offense just hasn't had a going

1026
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:55,320
Speaker 1: and you worry about that a little bit with a

1027
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 1: veteran quarterback. Are we sure they've shown up the camp yet?

1028
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: That I was a few years ago. You've gotten on

1029
00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:03,919
Speaker 1: them for not showing us. Have we seen their first

1030
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: team offense at all? They didn't, Yeah, and they didn't

1031
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,920
Speaker 1: were Their first team defensive line is just now getting

1032
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 1: back healthy. Almost all of those guys have been heard

1033
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 1: at some point. Well, they're playing the Cardinals in Week one,

1034
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: so we know that Arizona is keeping it under wraps.

1035
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: Detroit saying we're gonna do the same thing. We're not

1036
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,800
Speaker 1: gonna show you anything, and we're gonna unveil our mess massively,

1037
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: run heavy offense and surprise you just as much Cardinals defense.

1038
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: And you know what the Cardinals defense, well, against the

1039
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 1: Cardinals defense, they might be fine. Uh. Jamis Winson has

1040
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 1: always had a you know a bit of a sneaky

1041
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:38,840
Speaker 1: dad bod um. If you remember hard knocks, you know,

1042
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: in a shirtless scenes. You know, he's obviously a well

1043
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,480
Speaker 1: built he's an incredible, you know, athlete, but not cut

1044
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 1: out of stone like other professionals. Uh. Well, no, he

1045
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 1: doesn't have the pipes of Derek Carr. But he's got

1046
00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: the bod working right now. Greg, And you know what

1047
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 1: that means. You can just tell it in his face.

1048
00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,040
Speaker 1: What does it mean? I don't know. He's gonna the

1049
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 1: V page. Okay, usually it doesn't mean anything. I mean,

1050
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 1: it doesn't. It doesn't take much for me to find

1051
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,560
Speaker 1: something positive to say about Jamis Winston going at least

1052
00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 1: just like hoping that he's gonna turn around. But you

1053
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:11,880
Speaker 1: could tell when he was scrambling, and he's always been

1054
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: an underrated scramble. I think he's a pretty good scrambler.

1055
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:17,120
Speaker 1: But you can just tell he's quicker this year. I mean,

1056
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,799
Speaker 1: he's lost some weight. His face just looks like it's

1057
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 1: college Jamis. You know what they have, They're gonna have

1058
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 1: such a hard decision. Bucks. Let's say he has a

1059
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 1: better season and he's a little bit more consistent, he

1060
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:31,759
Speaker 1: keeps his nose clean and turns the ball over a

1061
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,880
Speaker 1: little bit less. Maybe the Bucks don't go anywhere. But

1062
00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 1: he shows some growth in the Bruce Arians era. Are

1063
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:40,799
Speaker 1: they going to give him like a massive contract? The thing,

1064
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 1: I'd say, going to be in a very tough spot

1065
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 1: and this big decision. It was Jason Light's pick. He's

1066
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:48,440
Speaker 1: just been extended and if if he has that good year,

1067
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: it looks like right, I mean, well really is that?

1068
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 1: What do you think? Yeah? I mean he buys him

1069
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 1: a year to to make up their mind whether it's

1070
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 1: real or not. It's a fair thought. The word, oh

1071
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 1: he could go to Kirk Cousins out or what signed

1072
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 1: for that kind of the Bucks could just drag it

1073
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 1: out if they don't believe, they don't believe that, you

1074
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:11,919
Speaker 1: know they want to give him a mega contract? Yeah,

1075
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 1: West Neil, that is what I'm say. What if that

1076
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:16,759
Speaker 1: team goes five and I don't know that at some point,

1077
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:21,319
Speaker 1: can we not be totally roster and eleven? I don't

1078
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 1: think you start? Yeah? I need progress for sure? Anything else?

1079

00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: way of a surprise banger that could come out any

1091
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 1: time between tonight and Yeah, Mark, not no, no, no,

1092
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,360
Speaker 1: we can't say anymore. You can't say more. No, we

1093
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,359
Speaker 1: absolutely cannot. Well, we can say that you pre wrote

1094
00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:23,320
Speaker 1: an obituary. People do that in news organizations. I just

1095
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: won't say. Batista is generally the go to pre write

1096
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,759
Speaker 1: oh bit writer at this company. She writes a lot

1097
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,319
Speaker 1: of it. I'm not even joking, but they trusted Mark

1098
00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,200
Speaker 1: for a big one. It puts you in a weird

1099
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 1: spot because not that actually this, but it's like, do

1100
00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:40,920
Speaker 1: I really want to wait thirty five years for this

1101
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 1: piece to come out? It's like, you know or you

1102
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,399
Speaker 1: is it okay to call an obituary a banger? I mean,

1103
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:53,239
Speaker 1: that's so I would call it the last word at

1104
00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 1: our text Jade, he called it a long form. I'm like,

1105
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:59,359
Speaker 1: you're doing words or something on this. What's well, it's

1106
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,200
Speaker 1: it's a major figure. This individual better you know, at

1107
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 1: some point expire, because that would just be a waste

1108
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: of a lot of work. At some point they will,

1109
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 1: I just will our organizations. Still, you know, the file

1110
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 1: could get lost in the mix, right, Like, I hope

1111
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:14,319
Speaker 1: this doesn't happen, but it's certainly possible that you could

1112
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 1: perish before this person or any one of them totally

1113
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 1: total marks Mark's status of employment. This company could perish.

1114
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 1: You're not gonna run it? Then, I did think about that,

1115
00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: like it's like this down, like I don't want to

1116
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: get into someone else's business. But like you know, if

1117
00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 1: if if Judy, let's say, you know that there's different

1118
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: you know, everyone knows talent as contracts. But when her

1119
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 1: contract is up, can't you just be like, well, what

1120
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 1: are you gonna do with the thirty five oh bits

1121
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 1: I wrote? You gotta bring me back? You can't run those? Uh,

1122
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:44,840
Speaker 1: if I'm no longer with the company, good negotiating a

1123
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:47,480
Speaker 1: great leverage. I guess you could yank the byline so

1124
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:50,080
Speaker 1: I'm a businessman and that's how I've been thinking, saving

1125
00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 1: for the morbidcast um. All right, before we go, a

1126
