1 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: A big season for rookie quarterbacks just keeps getting bigger. 2 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: We know we'll see that guy Caleb Williams out there when. 3 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:11,719 Speaker 2: Week one rolls around. 4 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: Why another rookie got the starting nod today and the 5 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,080 Speaker 1: possibility we could have at least one more getting that 6 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 1: same opportunity here in the coming days. We know Aaron 7 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: Rodgers will be out there come week one as well. 8 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: A lot of pressure this year on the Jets as 9 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: well as the Cowboys. Bucky Brooks here to tell us 10 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: why it's win now or else. I Meanwhile, some big 11 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: name wide receivers still waiting for their bags, Brandon Aiyuk 12 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb Jamar Chase. 13 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 2: When will we finally see them on the field. I 14 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 2: can tell you this much. 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: Until they actually get out there, we'll keep on talking 16 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 1: about it. 17 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: That's what we do here. 18 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: Welcome Inside with the Insiders, presented by Best Buy, alongside 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: Ian Rapaport and Mike Garafullo, who is coming to us 20 00:00:57,760 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: live from a Jimmy Buffett concert. 21 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: I am Tom Pelisero. 22 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: Tons and tons to dig into here, seventeen days out 23 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: from the regular season opener, just days away from the 24 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: final preseason week, Let's start out in Washington, where we 25 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: got the long awaited news earlier today. 26 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, Jaden Daniels, the. 27 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: Number two overall draft pick, is QB one for the 28 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: Commander's an expected move. It was tipped off when Daniels 29 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: was out there as the starting quarterback in the preseason opener. 30 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: So why was now the right time? Dan Quinn? 31 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 3: I told you about a month ago that naming our 32 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 3: starter at QB wasn't a secret. 33 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: And it was a process. 34 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 3: And when that process was time, i'd know, he'd know, 35 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: and I'd let you know. And as much as we 36 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 3: knew Jayden would get there, Adam and I were most 37 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: excited about watching how he would and the how has 38 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 3: been absolutely outstanding. He went through the whole thing. He 39 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: didn't miss a beat, hit the target that you know 40 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 3: we had put in front of him. You know, we 41 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: talked about the practices against the other teams the game. 42 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 3: So he's ready and he's earned the right to do that. 43 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 4: Just a blessing that d q AP trust me to 44 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 4: go out there and lead the team, lead the franchise 45 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 4: to hopefully win some games. So big ups to them. 46 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 4: It's a blessing. Something I dreaded it by as a 47 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 4: kid to be at this moment, to experience this moment. Uh, 48 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 4: It's not that I can say too much. 49 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: Ian we thought this day was coming from basically the 50 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: day that the commanders locked in the number two overall 51 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: pick and took Jaydan Daniels. But this does seem to 52 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: be another indication of what we've heard from Dan Quinn, 53 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 1: Adam Peters and others, which is everything Jayden Daniels has 54 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 1: done so far is what they expected and more. Now 55 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: they feel like he is ready. It's go time. He's 56 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: going to be out there week one. 57 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 5: You know, during the pre draft process we talk so 58 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 5: much about the physical tools and the arm strength and 59 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 5: what Jaden Daniels put on tape and how much better 60 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 5: was from the previous years, and the athleticism, how fast 61 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 5: is all of those things all are very very important. 62 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 5: I remember being there with Mike actually during training camp, 63 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 5: and all the commanders talked about was the presence, how 64 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 5: he processes, how well he has done learning the offense, 65 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 5: picking it up, recounting it, teaching it to other people, 66 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 5: getting in out of the huddle, the operation part of 67 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 5: being quarterback, which if you're gonna name a starter, if 68 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 5: you're gonna name a rookie starter. All of that is 69 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 5: I would say as important, maybe more important, than the 70 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 5: physical tools. The fact that Jayden Daniels has showed them 71 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 5: so much so early reinforces what the Washington commanders think, 72 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 5: which is they. 73 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 2: Got a guy. 74 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 5: In a league mic where either you have a guy 75 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 5: or you don't have a guy. The commanders believe that 76 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 5: they got a guy. And the fact that he checked 77 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 5: off every box as easily as he did, I think 78 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 5: makes for a lot more optimism in Washington right now 79 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 5: than we have seen in a pretty long time. 80 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 6: The end that day, we were there at training camp, 81 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 6: which was relatively early in the case. Now he had 82 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 6: the spring obviously, but it was early in training camp, 83 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 6: and you could see how comfortable he was. 84 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 7: You could see how comfortable they were with him. 85 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 6: I mean, some of the things that they were bragging 86 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 6: about you wouldn't notice just watching on the sideline. 87 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 7: They were talking about. 88 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 6: How he checked to a run the other day, and 89 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 6: oh my, what a great call it was, and how 90 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 6: he saw that that's exactly what he had to do 91 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 6: in that situation. And then for good measure, later in 92 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 6: that practice, he throws an absolute dime down the sideline 93 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 6: to Terry McLaurin on a go ball right over Emmanuel 94 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 6: Forbes in the perfect place. So he's showing them everything 95 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 6: with his mind, with his arm, and with his legs 96 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 6: as well. You talked about his presence just in a 97 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 6: couple minutes that he was talking to us, you could 98 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 6: see that presence on display, the fact that it didn't 99 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 6: really feel like it was too big for him. He's 100 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,559 Speaker 6: got a quiet confidence about him. So, yeah, they wanted 101 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 6: to just go through the process, but he kept on 102 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 6: checking all these boxes, so let's go. 103 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 2: Here we go. 104 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: The one thing that stood out to me watching back 105 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: that game that he played this past weekend was the 106 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: play where he scrambles and doesn't get down and takes 107 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: a hit and you and see him immediately pop up, 108 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: look at dan Quinn. 109 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: Quinn's going, you know, He's like, I know, I know, 110 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 2: I know. 111 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: That's one of the biggest things we heard all the 112 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: way through the process was he's not the biggest guy. 113 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: Protect yourself. 114 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: It's obviously's been a lot of communication on that, and 115 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: he is fun to watch when he's out there. You 116 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: know what else has been fun to watch bow Knicks 117 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: and the Denver Broncos in. 118 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: Fact, let's watch him right now. How about a highlight 119 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 2: right here. 120 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: Don't worry Packers fans, We're not really going to show 121 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: you anything of your team there, Purt Frankly, a whole 122 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: lot of highlights. 123 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 2: We'll show you a lot of bow Nicks. 124 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: Here he is in the first quarter throwing the touchdown 125 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: pass off the scramble to Javonte Williams. That's a fourteen yarder, 126 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: but called back because he was just I don't know, 127 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: that's so close. They're saying he was across the line 128 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Doesn't end up counting. It's going to be 129 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 1: a field goal. Still, a pretty nice play. Start of 130 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: the second quarter. Now, bo Nicks Courtland Sutton, who had 131 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: pancaked the guy on the previous snap. That's why they 132 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: adjusted the contract, made sure they got Courtland Sutton back. 133 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: Follows that up two plays later, second and goal from 134 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 1: the two. Patrick, how about that story consecutive season inning injuries. 135 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: Look at the players pour off the sideline to celebrate 136 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: with Hitt. Patrick Guess a twenty seven to two win 137 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: for the Denver Broncos. Sean Payton Mike still not saying 138 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: yet that he's ready to name the starting quarterback, although 139 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: I'd put this pretty close to the category of Jadeen Daniels, 140 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: where it seems like it's when, not if, Dix gets 141 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: the nod at. 142 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 6: This point, I mean, we all felt like that earlier 143 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 6: in the process. How could you not feel like that 144 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 6: at this point, And you've got Nix who started out 145 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 6: as third on the depth chart, and even at that 146 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 6: point we were like, all right, this is Sean Payton saying, Hey, 147 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 6: the rookie's got to earn his way up. Which is 148 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 6: not to say that Zach Wilson Jarrett Stead have really 149 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 6: had all those skins on the wall as veteran quarterbacks, 150 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,239 Speaker 6: but Bo Nix was the guy where you just felt like, Okay, 151 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 6: Peyton is making him earn his spot, which is an 152 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 6: indication that he must have liked what he had seen 153 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 6: from him in the spring leading into training camp. Well, 154 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 6: everything he's put on display and his command and his bill, 155 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 6: we'll do the process thing and things and get the 156 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 6: ball where it needs to be. Even that play, I mean, 157 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 6: I've seen the likes of Eli Manning and Patrick Mahomes 158 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 6: come right up against that line of scrimmage, so I 159 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 6: don't even mark him and say, oh, that was a 160 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 6: terrible amount of awareness. 161 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 7: No, he was trying to make a play. He made 162 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 7: a pretty good play. 163 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 6: It was by his toenail the fact that he was 164 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 6: barely over I like the headiness there to try to 165 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 6: make a play. Sean Payton clearly likes what he sees 166 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 6: from boon Nicks, just not quite ready to say he's 167 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 6: the guy. 168 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 5: That heady this This is a lot of the reason why 169 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,679 Speaker 5: the Denver Broncos, and really specifically Sean Payton targeted bon Nicks. 170 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 5: Wanted Bonnicks, but a lot of people, including me, not 171 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 5: that it matters, thought that he would be a back. 172 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 2: End of the first round pick. 173 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 5: The Broncos were like, yeah, we don't care, We're just 174 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 5: going to take him, because it does seem that had 175 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 5: they not taken him at twelve, there were at least 176 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 5: two other teams behind them who said, you know what, 177 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 5: maybe we'll just take this guy anyway. Wasn't worth the 178 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 5: risk of the Broncos an indication that they think that 179 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 5: he is a guy as well, just like we're talking 180 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 5: about with Jaden Daniels and you know, the read on 181 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 5: Bonnicks during the draft process and really throughout the entire 182 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 5: summer was that he was one of the most pro 183 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 5: ready rookie quarterbacks. 184 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: Well, he for sure. 185 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 5: Has shown that how high is the ceiling his play 186 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 5: is going to show right. I mean, he's hard to 187 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 5: be hard to be coached better than Sean payn is 188 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 5: going to be coaching him, especially early on, even though 189 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 5: it's a lot of the offense to handle. But the 190 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 5: fact that he can come in look like similar to 191 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 5: Mike what you're saying about Jayden Daniels, Like it's not 192 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 5: too big fat that he can use his athleticism and 193 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 5: do different parts of his game and look normal doing it. 194 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 5: This is a very very good situation right now for 195 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 5: the Broncos, and I would agree with you guys. Feels 196 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 5: to me like when and not if. 197 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: Bo Nicks being QB one in Denver will give us 198 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: three rookie starting quarterbacks, and it might still be too 199 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: early to one hundred percent rule out the possibility we 200 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: get a fourth. Drod Mayo, the Patriots new head coach, 201 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: speaking earlier to reporters today and reiterating the same thing 202 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: that he had previously said after the game last Thursday, 203 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: which is that it's too soon right now. He's not 204 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: yet made a decision on who's going to be the 205 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: starter now. Jacoby Brissett also spoke and said he still 206 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: is treating this as if he's the starter. But there 207 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: was a lot to get excited about Ian from Drake 208 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: May's second performance. Everybody saw the first one. He didn't 209 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: play a whole lot. There was a bunch of nonsense 210 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: going around about they don't want to put him on 211 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 1: the field. Well, this guy behind a pretty patchwork offensive 212 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: line certainly showed the ability why they took him number 213 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,319 Speaker 1: three overall, even though he does ultimately need some more 214 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: seasoning here. 215 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 5: The Patriots are very high on Drake Man. I want 216 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 5: to make that pretty clear. Not that it's not clear, 217 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 5: but just judging from the reports of training camp, people 218 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 5: maybe started to wonder. 219 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: The Patriots are very high on Drake May. 220 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 5: And it was interesting, I would say the last week 221 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 5: or so, the Patriots wanted to make sure he got 222 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 5: time in front of the starting offensive line. They want 223 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 5: to make sure he get real game and practice naps 224 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 5: in front of the starting offensive line, at least showing 225 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 5: us they haven't completely ruled out the possibility that he 226 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 5: would begin this season as the starter. You know, we 227 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 5: also heard Jacoby Brissett say he believes he is a starter, 228 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 5: and we talked to him at training give he you know, 229 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 5: was pretty it was pretty evident that that's where he 230 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 5: thought it was going to go. When you have a 231 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 5: rookie quarterback who's as talented as Drake may that it 232 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 5: really does, you know, sort of take a different It's 233 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 5: possible it could take a different a different lane. 234 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 2: I would say, we'll see which way this one goes. 235 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 5: With the fact that the early returns are so positive, 236 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 5: I would say is pretty good. 237 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 6: In New England, you know the Patriots' schedule as it 238 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 6: lines up, and you know you can do it based 239 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 6: on last year's records. I don't like to do that. 240 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 6: Our buddy, Cynthia Freeland has her expected wins for each team. 241 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 6: The New England Patriots schedule, if you plug in all 242 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 6: the expected wins, is the toughest schedule in the NFL, 243 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 6: and really it starts brutally. Five of the first six 244 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 6: games are against teams that she expects to be double 245 00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 6: digit win teams. 246 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 7: Now down the ste it softens up a little bit. 247 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 6: There's really no easy stretch with this schedule, especially when 248 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 6: you play in an AFC East where you look at 249 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 6: those other teams, and you know, all three of those 250 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 6: other teams are going to be pretty good football teams. 251 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 6: So when you look at Drake may and you look 252 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 6: at the Patriots situation, not even so much for his development, 253 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 6: but really off the bat, wouldn't you like to have 254 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 6: a veteran out there, a veteran who has played serviceable 255 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 6: to good football in the past. And I like the 256 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 6: way that Jacoby Brissett has really expressed that confidence, not 257 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 6: only what he said recently back when Ian you interviewed 258 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 6: him with Scott Pioli, in the way that he talked 259 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 6: about that room, I was really feeling like, who's going 260 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 6: to be the starter? He's had that confidence in himself. 261 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 6: So I think on a team that we're not expecting 262 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 6: to make the playoffs this year, I think maybe you want. 263 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 7: The veteran early on. It's got to be something that's 264 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 7: going through girod Mayo's mind right now. 265 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: Also some interesting decisions down the Patriots depth chart because 266 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: Joe Milton, who they also drafted, flashed in that first 267 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: preseason game. Hard to imagine with those traits you're going 268 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: to try to slip him through waivers. Bailey Zappi your 269 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: former starter is also still out there. Is there a 270 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 1: possibility of a trade? Could they try to slide him 271 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: through to the practice squad? Some interesting decisions for Drodmeo, 272 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: Elliott Wolf and company to make. The Chargers have done 273 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: some shuffling down their quarterback dep chart. They waved Max 274 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,719 Speaker 1: Duggan earlier today. That's in part because they got that 275 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: guy back onto the field. Justin Herbert for the first 276 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: time since deal with that plantar fascia issue back on 277 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: July thirtieth, Not in spikes, not doing the whole practice, 278 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: but he was leased on the field, which was music 279 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: to Jim Harbaugh's ears. 280 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 8: I deal to have Justin back out there practicing. 281 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 9: Oh great, great, I felt like the music should be playing. 282 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 9: I haven't thought I felt. I thought I heard music, 283 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 9: voices of angels maybe, Oh great? Felt great. 284 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford also back out on the practice field, only 285 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: did stretching in individual drills today, but certainly a step forward. 286 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 1: Sean McVay said they had to hold him back here. 287 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: Stafford wants to be on the field. No concerns at 288 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: this point about Week one, so much to talk about, 289 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: and yes to the NFL front office source who texted 290 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: me during that segment. 291 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 2: This show is live seven pm Easter Time every night. 292 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: Thank you very much for watching Dak Prescott, Aaron Rodgers. 293 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 1: A lot of pressure on those teams in twenty twenty four. 294 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks off Lee's break it down next on The Insiders. 295 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 2: Well, we haven't seen Aaron Rodgers on the field in 296 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: the preseason so far. 297 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: Jets wrap it up on Saturday night against the New 298 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: York Giants. Dak Prescott and the Cowboys wrap up their 299 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 1: exhibition schedule on Saturday against the Chargers. Then the real 300 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: games begin and our Bucky Brooks, you read his column 301 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: NFL dot Com slash Brooks says, both these teams face 302 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 1: a similar pressure cooker heading into a twenty twenty four seas. 303 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: It is, in Bucky's words, win now or else. Time 304 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: Now for go bigger This season presented by best Buy 305 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: Welcome Back to the Insiders, also presented by Best by 306 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: Tom Pellicero, Ian Rappaport, Mike Garafalo, and the aforementioned Bucky Brooks. Bucky, 307 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: let's start out here with the Dallas Cowboys. We've talked 308 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: about this before. I can't think of another situation where 309 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: you're head coach and your quarterback are both going into 310 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: a contract here, much less a team that's won twelve 311 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: games in three consecutive seasons. Here, take me inside your 312 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: analysis and your evaluation of this Cowboys team what. 313 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 2: They're facing in twenty twenty four. 314 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 7: Hey, guys, it's really baffling. 315 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 10: A team that has won twelve games in each of 316 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 10: the past three seasons has a care coastest in the 317 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 10: hot seat. Not only do you have a head coastess 318 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 10: on the hot seat, you have a quarterback who can't 319 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 10: get a deal done when most teams would be happy 320 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 10: to secure a quarterback that has won thirty six games 321 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 10: over the past three seasons, but the Cowboys operate differently. 322 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 10: They don't appear to want to pay this Jerry Jones 323 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 10: appears to like the pressure that is putting on the 324 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 10: team to perform at a high level. I just think 325 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 10: it's crazy to think that the Dallas Cowboys are entering 326 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 10: a season coming on the heels of three successful regular 327 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 10: seasons where there's so much uncertainty about whether the head coach, 328 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 10: the quarterback, the star wide receiver, the star pass rusher, 329 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 10: if they're going to be there for the long call. 330 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 10: It is crazy that this self imposed pressure is really 331 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 10: going to impact the way the team prepares to play. 332 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 10: But hey, Jerry Jones, like this America's team is going 333 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 10: to see if they can do it because it's win 334 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 10: or go home for a bunch of different people that 335 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 10: are part of that organization. 336 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 5: Buck, you explained it, well, it does seem the Dallas 337 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 5: Cowboys and Jerry Jones in particular, really do like the 338 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 5: pressure that is being put on the players and coach 339 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy. 340 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: Mean, this is set up as a make or break season. 341 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 5: Rim did not get a contracts extension, playing out the 342 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 5: final year of his deal, and you know, I think 343 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 5: there's a couple of things at player. First of all, 344 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 5: the Cowboys really do not love not that any team does, 345 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 5: but specifically they don't love dead money. They're only paying 346 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 5: guys who aren't there. They don't like paying players aren't there. 347 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 5: There's no thought for them, So you know, we just 348 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 5: should extend them because that's what a lot of people do. 349 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 2: They are fine with not doing it, knowing that the 350 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 2: only option for MIKEL. 351 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 5: McCarthy is either to win or as you say, else, 352 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 5: they like the pressure. They want the pressure, and if 353 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 5: you're the Dallas Cowboys. If you're the brass, if you're 354 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,080 Speaker 5: the players. Part of the reality with being in Dallas 355 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 5: is this is there all the time. So the fact 356 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 5: that the management amps it up a little bit, they 357 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 5: think that's okay. 358 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 6: I got a new camera set up here I'm gonna 359 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 6: use from time to time, and I'm never gonna do 360 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 6: this again. But the lights can change colors behind me 361 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 6: and our producer, Jeff Collett's cool. I gotta change colors. 362 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 6: We're talking Cowboys. So I went blue here. 363 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 7: For better or worse. The Cowboys believe in their. 364 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 6: Ability and Will McLay, their personnel guy who a lot 365 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 6: of folks have tried to interview and pry him away, and. 366 00:16:58,640 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 7: He's been in Dallas this whole time. 367 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 6: They believe in their ability as a front office, with 368 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 6: Will running pretty much personnel to draft guys and to 369 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 6: develop guys. So Ian, you talked about all that money 370 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 6: that they didn't spend this offseason, and I can't tell 371 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 6: you how many countless times I heard from Cowboys fans, what. 372 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 2: Are we doing? 373 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 7: We're doing nothing. 374 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 6: Well, they're doing nothing because they're relying upon their depth 375 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 6: and maybe some guys we haven't talked about. 376 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 7: So that's putting the pressure on themselves. 377 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 6: If it doesn't work out, because there was the ability 378 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 6: to go out and spend money, and even your fan 379 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 6: base was like, let's go do it. 380 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 7: So the pressure is there. Let's see if their approach 381 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 7: works out. 382 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: Though I do know the Cowboys are really excited about 383 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 1: this rookie class. 384 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 2: There's probably four of them. 385 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: They're gonna have to step in start definitely play big 386 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 1: roles for this team. Also, maybe obviously a couple moves 387 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 1: to bring in veteran players on the defensive side. 388 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 2: Canna be interesting to follow. 389 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: Right, Let's turn the attention to the Jets, Mike, if 390 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: you got the clicker, we're gonna need green back there. 391 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: Bucky O'Brian Rodgers lasted four snaps last season. Of course, 392 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: that's been very well documented at this point. It's been 393 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: a fairly by Jets standards quiet off season, other than 394 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: the Hassan Reddick holdout that continues to be on going here. 395 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: Rodgers said it himself back in OTAs, Hey, we're either 396 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 1: going to need to win or a bunch of us 397 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: are going to be out of here after the season. 398 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: It certainly seems like from the quarterback on down everybody 399 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 1: understands what's at stake in New York. 400 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 10: Yeah, look, there's a lot of pressure in New York 401 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 10: because you have a quarterback who's in the twilight of 402 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 10: his career, but everyone is counting on him to play 403 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 10: at the MVP level. 404 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 11: And I understand he's a four time. 405 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 10: MVP, but so many things are hanging on his play, 406 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 10: and his play is hanging on a bunch of older 407 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 10: players or guys who've been hurt to come back and play. 408 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 10: I would say at career levels, you think about Mike 409 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 10: Williams on the outside. He's supposed to Peri Garrett Wilson 410 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 10: to give them a nice dynamic tandem on the outside, 411 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 10: and he think about the old edge blockers that they have, 412 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 10: Morgan Moses on one side, you have Tarvin Smith on 413 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 10: another side. Can they stay healthy and be available? And 414 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 10: then defensively, you make a trade to get Hassa Reddick 415 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 10: to help you kind of upgrade up pass rus that's 416 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 10: already pretty good. He doesn't want to come to camp, 417 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 10: And so you have all of these little things circling 418 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 10: around this team. 419 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, Aaron Rodders is. 420 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 10: Returning from an achilles injury that could change the way 421 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 10: that he plays. It's a lot going on, particularly for 422 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 10: in battle Head coach and Robert Sala, who needs to 423 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 10: win to save his job. 424 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 11: Just seems like a lot in the Big Apple. 425 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, I get what you're saying. Buck is said. 426 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 6: The green is weird, Like that doesn't even look like green, right, 427 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 6: I got green round being here. 428 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 7: That's no, the green is maybe a rare white sometimes 429 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 7: oh here you go. Yeah. 430 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 6: So yeah, So when you're over there and you're talking 431 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 6: to the Jetss I've done a couple of times this 432 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 6: spring and summer, it's almost like the pressure was on 433 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 6: us last year, right, and Rogers goes down with the Achilles, 434 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 6: and now it's not the hard knocks thing. It's year two. 435 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,479 Speaker 6: They added pieces to that offensive line as you were 436 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 6: talking about Buck, So they almost feel like there's more 437 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 6: of a quiet confidence this year. It's not as much 438 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 6: of a hullaballoo over there in Flora Park. 439 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 7: So it's almost like the. 440 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 6: Not house money, right, because you didn't do anything last year. 441 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 6: I'm struggling to come up with the exact phrasing for it, 442 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 6: but they feel really good about where they are. And 443 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers the way that he's been kind of over there. 444 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 6: He's has his hands and everything. You know, he's not 445 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 6: just dealing with the quarterbacks and the target. He's talking 446 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 6: to everybody offense, defense, offensive line. You could tell it's 447 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 6: not pressure in his mind so much as urgency. 448 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 7: We shall see. 449 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 5: Let's talk about lights more, talk about phrasing anyway. 450 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 2: I will offer the counterpoint here. 451 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 5: First of all, I don't view this just me myself 452 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 5: Bucky as a win or else for the Jets, because 453 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 5: they have a really good young corps, really good young 454 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 5: corps on defense specifically, but plenty of weapons on offense 455 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 5: as well, and you know they're not great. Aaron Rodgers 456 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 5: is probably going to be real mad about it and 457 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 5: want to come back next year as well. 458 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 2: It's a great opportunity. They have everything there to win. 459 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 2: But I don't view it as something where if they don't, 460 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 2: it's rip it all apart. 461 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 11: We'll see. 462 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: NFL dot com slash Scouts notebook where you can read 463 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: a lot more from Bucky Brooks. 464 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 2: I'll said, NFL dot Com slash Brooks. 465 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: Turns out that link takes you all the BUCkies work, 466 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: So go ahead read all the Bucky. 467 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 2: Don't move. 468 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: You're back with us in just a little bit to 469 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,719 Speaker 1: talk about the number one overall pick.

Still has not gotten a new contract, 483 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: but that hasn't stopped him from feeling pretty good about 484 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: being in Atlanta. 485 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 12: It's my first time being traded, you know, I was. 486 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 12: I signed a free agency. I think when you go 487 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 12: to a new team that just means they want you there. 488 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 12: You know, I wasn't picked off off waiver wire or 489 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 12: something I wasn't like to fill an empty spider or boy. 490 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 12: I think the team looked at they roster and was like, 491 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 12: this guy can improve that room. And so I just 492 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 12: got to come out here and do what I do, 493 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 12: be me, and then I think that'll help and the 494 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 12: pieces will fall what they may. 495 00:22:54,880 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 1: Stefan Gilmour also officially has a new home, signing his 496 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: contract with the Vikings today one year at up to 497 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: ten million dollars, A reunion with Brian Flores, who he 498 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: played for in New England and obviously liked enough that 499 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: he wanted to get back together with the Vikings. 500 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 2: Welcome back. 501 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: We're back together here on The Insiders, presented by Best Buy. 502 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: Tom Pelicero, Ian Rappaport, Mike Garafollo. Mike, we've talked a 503 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: little bit over the past. I don't know six months 504 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: about Brandon Ayuk. It is felt for the past i'd 505 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 1: say week plus, like this thing is just stalled at 506 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 1: the one yard line. It doesn't feel like anything has 507 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: moved substantially. Where do we stand right now with Ayuk again, 508 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: now three weeks away from. 509 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: The forty nine ers opening game against the Jets. 510 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, got the red lights going behind me? Brandon Ayuk, 511 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 6: that's not in the forty nine ers. That Tom, that 512 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 6: doesn't feel like there's been a lot of progress. We 513 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 6: had that move a little over a week ago where 514 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 6: the forty nine ers came back and made an offer 515 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 6: to him after really not making an offer for months 516 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 6: on end, which is part of what was irritating Brandon 517 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 6: a Yuk after they had gone out and surveyed the 518 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 6: trade market and said, well, if we trade them away, 519 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 6: we got to fill the hole and let's go try 520 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 6: to find another guy. And really it's going to cost 521 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 6: us as much to get another guy who's not as. 522 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 7: Good, so we might as well keep branding on you. 523 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,239 Speaker 7: And it felt like they were really close. They were 524 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 7: really close. 525 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 6: I mean, the sides have agreed on the hardest parts 526 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 6: of the deal. It sounds like you just wanted to 527 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 6: make wanted them to make one final move in the 528 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 6: last year of that deal, and they have not been 529 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 6: willing to do it because I since the Niners are like, look, man, 530 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 6: enough is enough, Like we gave you a whole lot, 531 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 6: like we don't want to make this final move, and 532 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 6: Ayuka is going, look it's all or nothing and I'm 533 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 6: going to continue my hold in sort of the same 534 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 6: for Trent Williams, who wants an adjustment to his contract, 535 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 6: has wanted it all along here and feels like he's 536 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 6: still the top tackle in the game and not being 537 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 6: paid like it now. There's no guarantees moving into the future, 538 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 6: so he certainly wants that as well as the adjustment 539 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 6: to the contract itself. Kyle Shanahan has felt confident it 540 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:55,919 Speaker 6: was going to get done. We're not there yet. It's 541 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 6: time for like the pressure of here comes the start 542 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 6: of the regular season to really resolve both of these situations. 543 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: I feel this is an important week because we are 544 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: getting to that point in the calendar where not being 545 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: on the field in camp does start to have some 546 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: level of impact over what type of role you can 547 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: play early in the season. And with regard to Brandon Ayuk, 548 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 1: we know from Ayuk's own Instagram comment, in his mind, 549 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: it's two options. 550 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 2: It's either I'm back. 551 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 1: With the forty Niners on a long term deal, or 552 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 1: I'm traded to the Steelers. Ian reported recently that the 553 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: sides between Pittsburgh and San Francisco have an idea on 554 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: the framework and an agreement of what this trade would 555 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: be At some point. If the player is not going 556 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 1: to be ready to play, or at least not be 557 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: full speed in September, that impacts the trade value, and 558 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: so that offer might potentially have to be adjusted as well. Meanwhile, 559 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys, Ian there's no trade talk surrounding 560 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, another one that kind of seemed to be 561 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: limping along. There was communication late last week, but it 562 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: does not sound like anything's imminent on that front. 563 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 5: I get the same feel nothing emminent on the cow 564 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 5: Boys in CD LAMB. The fact that this could turn 565 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 5: with one phone call always sticks out, which is why 566 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 5: you never really want to say there's nothing doing. Because 567 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 5: you make one phone call, you cave on a little bit, 568 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 5: the other side caves on a little bit. 569 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 2: You can always get a deal done. 570 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 5: Pretty clear where this CD LAMB deal is going to 571 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 5: come in hard to imagine he beats Justin Jefferson. He's 572 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 5: the highest paid receiver in the NFL. But right under 573 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 5: it makes a lot of sense. But there's so much 574 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 5: of the deal. There's term, how many years, there's overall 575 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 5: average per year, there's a guarantee, which is something for 576 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 5: sure the Cowboys have. You know, I'd say it's obvious 577 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 5: that's been a little bit of a fight. He remains 578 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 5: a holdout, And you're right, we're getting to that point 579 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 5: of the season where got to show up at some 580 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 5: point soon to be ready for the season. 581 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 2: And I would say the Cincinnati. 582 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 5: Bengals of Jamar Chase are in a somewhat similar situation. 583 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 2: Not with contract. 584 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 5: They are nowhere near to my knowledge as far along 585 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 5: as the Cowboys are on contract talks. But Jamar Chase 586 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 5: continues to not practice, and at some point, if he's 587 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 5: going to play week one, if he's going to be 588 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 5: ready for the season, he's got to practice and be ready. 589 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 5: Otherwise you're looking at hamstring growing, all those different soft 590 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 5: tissue injuries. It's getting to the time where these deals 591 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 5: got to get done. 592 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: Cev Lamb of course, entering year five to mar Chase 593 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: entering year four, the math is more complicated figuring out 594 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: exactly what that extension needs to look like. We know 595 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: those guys are playmakers, and the Bears are. 596 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 2: Pretty confident right now. They got one with the number 597 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 2: one pick, snap to catab Williams. 598 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: Dancity moving in the pocket, pressure escape spins to his left. 599 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 11: I'm a move again outside of the numbers. 600 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: Now he's gonna tuck it and go with Tayland Jakins 601 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: in front, He's it. 602 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 13: For the touchdown. 603 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 7: Let's scramble of seven for number eighteen. 604 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams. 605 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: Let's welcome back in our buddy, Bucky Brooks to the show. Bucky, 606 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: you've been breaking down all these rookie quarterbacks across the league. 607 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 2: We've seen a bunch of. 608 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,719 Speaker 1: Them who are either in line to start or are 609 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: going to be the starters. Caleb Williams had the starting 610 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 1: job in Chicago. Oh, I'd say a little before the combine, 611 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: probably back in February. Here, you've watched him through these 612 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: first couple of preseason games. 613 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 2: What have you seen. 614 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 10: He's as advertised, He's exactly what the Bears expected he 615 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 10: would be when he showed up from USC. And this 616 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 10: is on the heels of coming off. I was saying 617 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 10: up and down final campaign at USC. But since he's 618 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 10: gotten to Chicago, he has shown all the flashes that 619 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 10: made him a Heisman Trophy winner. He has big time 620 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 10: arm talent. He has great improvisational playmaking ability. He can 621 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 10: do it on platform off platform. He can do it 622 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 10: in a spectacular fashion while also showing the patients and 623 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,239 Speaker 10: the discipline that you wanted to see him do it 624 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 10: from the pocket. The Bears have to be pleased with 625 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 10: their young quarterback because he's checked off all the boxes 626 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 10: that you want to see a franchise quarterback check off 627 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 10: during preseason. The next step for him is to take 628 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 10: the same things that he's been doing in preseason and 629 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 10: execute them in the regular season. He has a talented 630 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 10: cast to playmakers around him, but if he continues to 631 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 10: be patient and discipline within the pocket, this Bear's offense 632 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 10: is going to light it up. 633 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: Jaden of course got the nods QB one in Washington today, 634 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: will Bo Nixon Drink may potentially joined him. Stick around, Bucky. 635 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna get more from you on that in just 636 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: a little bit. Right now, let's kick it back to 637 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: you and Mike. 638 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 2: You mentioned it, Tom. 639 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 5: The Washington Commander's name Jayden Danos as their starting quarterbacks 640 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 5: something I think it's fair to say we have expected 641 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 5: ever since the moment they draft him. But the fact 642 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 5: that he has earned it, the fact that he really 643 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 5: has grinded his way there has been a very very 644 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 5: good sign for the Washington Commanders. 645 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 2: But don't just take my word for it. 646 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 5: Let's talk to someone who is there, right there in person, 647 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 5: not just at the commander's last game, although certainly he was, 648 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 5: but also at the week of practice. Cameron Wolf, Welcome 649 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 5: inside to the insiders. Tell me a little more about 650 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 5: Jaden Daniels and what did you learn for your time 651 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 5: watching him. 652 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 11: I'm ready. 653 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 14: Those are the words that Jayden Daniels told to me 654 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 14: Thursday after practice. First two words, and he said, I'm 655 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 14: counting down the days to Tampa. I can't wait for 656 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 14: it to be real. And we learned today he's officially 657 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 14: been named the starting quarterback. But this has been what 658 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 14: they've been prepping for for months in Washington. When I 659 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 14: talked to Dan Quinn after that practice, he was discussing 660 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 14: about how Daniels was getting ready for the Tampa Bay 661 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 14: Bucks by facing the Dolphins, xotic blitzes and this Florida 662 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 14: heat and so really, this is a rookie quarterback who 663 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 14: Quinn called California cool. 664 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 11: He's earned this job. 665 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,479 Speaker 14: With impressive camp command, comfort within this offense all summer, 666 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 14: and it was really impressive watching Daniels this week. He's 667 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 14: shining in the red zone and practice shredding the middle 668 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 14: of the field. 669 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 11: Which was a pre draft question. 670 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 14: Mark had a lot of touchdowns there and in the 671 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 14: game he had excellent ball placement. There was a play 672 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 14: there that we're seeing in the highlights here where he 673 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 14: threw a Terry McLaurin pass three yards literally threw him 674 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 14: into yards after catch seventeen yards after there. That's something 675 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 14: Washington really wants him to magnify. And when I talked 676 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 14: to Daniels, he said the biggest adjustment for him has 677 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 14: been the speed of the defensive fronts. They get there 678 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 14: really fast, and so the way they've adjusted to that 679 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 14: lot really quickly. His time to throw from snap to 680 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 14: throwing out was less than two seconds in the preseason, 681 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 14: the fastest of any quarterback. That's intentional. They want to 682 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 14: have no huddle and tempo. They want him to be 683 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 14: able to protect himself given all the pressure he's going 684 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 14: to face. And one last thing, he did run in 685 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 14: one play a thirteen yard rush and he did not slide. 686 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 14: Dan Quinn said he's in double secret probation. A little 687 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,479 Speaker 14: animal house reference there. That's going to be a balance 688 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 14: for them all season. Jane Daniels says he's never practiced 689 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 14: on a slide, but they have to keep him upright 690 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 14: and so they're comfortable and confident women's quarterback. 691 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 11: Just hopefully he slides a little bit more. 692 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 5: One of the most important things get these guys to slide. 693 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 5: You need him healthy for as many games as they 694 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 5: could possibly be out there. All right, great stuff on 695 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 5: Jane Daniels. You are also our Tua tug of lo expert. 696 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 5: You watched him as well during the joint practices in 697 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 5: the game two preseason games. 698 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 2: In what have we learned about Tua and this Dolphins offense? 699 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 14: Ian first stood out that tuatungue Ailoa asked to play 700 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 14: on Saturday. He was missing his top three receivers Tyreek Hill, 701 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 14: Jaylen Waddell, Odell Beckham, and two of his offensive line starters, 702 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 14: but he wanted the reps and he went out there. 703 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 14: One drive, one touchdown, five for five and he was 704 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 14: pretty flawless in there, a fourth down touchdown on a 705 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 14: fade routes River prey Craft. In the locker room, I 706 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 14: talked to his right tackle, Austin Jackson, and he simply said, 707 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 14: you couldn't ask for anything more from your quarterback. 708 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 11: Right being able to march down. 709 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 14: The field without an incomplete pass always in rhythm and 710 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 14: it helps build us confidence. And Mike McDaniels said it 711 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 14: was the least amount of nerves he seemed to have 712 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 14: on a football field. And so they're all ready for 713 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 14: the regular season. The one thing they have to get 714 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 14: right is those injuries. Odell Beckham is progressing, but he's 715 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 14: still not practicing. He's on his pup list, and they 716 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 14: had so many injuries in the running back. 717 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 11: Room last year. 718 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 14: They had to play a wide receiver in the second 719 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 14: half at running back, and so a lot of minor 720 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 14: tweaks in that room. They hope to be ready Week one, 721 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 14: but this is a team that's trying to get ready 722 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 14: for the long haul of what they hope is a 723 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 14: playoff season. 724 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 5: No, Cam, we talked so much about Tua and his 725 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,959 Speaker 5: contract extension and when it was coming. Now that it's here, 726 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 5: it's nice to talk about him as a player and 727 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 5: where he is trying to get to great stuff. 728 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 2: Appreciate you, Thank you, Cameron Wolf. We will talk to 729 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: you very soon. 730 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 5: Meanwhile, another quarterback situation that is certainly not as settled 731 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 5: as the Miami Dolphins or the Commanders justin field, Russell Wilson, 732 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 5: what is happening in Pittsburgh, Coming up on The Insiders 733 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 5: presented by Best. 734 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 6: Bob, Welcome Back to the Insiders presented by Best Buy, 735 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 6: and pretty good bye for the Las Vegas Raiders and 736 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 6: free agency. When they signed Gardner Minshew, he went up 737 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 6: against Aidan O'Connell, who started. 738 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 7: About ten games for the Raiders last year. 739 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 6: Minshew named the starting quarterback for Antonio Pierce's Raiders heading 740 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 6: into the twenty twenty four season. I'll have one more 741 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 6: preseason game to iron things out. We now bring in 742 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 6: Omar Ruiz and if Tom Pelisaro is making cracks about 743 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 6: my shirt off the top of the show, wait till 744 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 6: he gets a load of this one. Omar, I think 745 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 6: you look fantastic the Raiders now. 746 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 7: Pierce said that he. 747 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 8: Wished, well, you know, I always heard there's any network polos. 748 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 8: I wanted to feel like I'm going to Jimmy Buffett 749 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 8: concert as well. 750 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 2: That's it. Yeah, well. 751 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 7: Maybe in the past, rip Jimmy. We love you so. 752 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 6: Antonio Pierce wishes that both quarterbacks had ended on a 753 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 6: higher note. Had to make a decision or felt like 754 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 6: he had to make a decision at this point, so 755 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 6: they decided to go with Minshew. 756 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 7: Who can give you. 757 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 6: Some stuff off script if things break down, sometimes with 758 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 6: his legs. 759 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 7: He's done that in the past. It's also got the 760 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 7: better inexperience. 761 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 6: Your thoughts on Antonio Pierce naming Minshew the starting quarterback. 762 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 8: Well, he's naming the starting quarterback Gardner Minshew for at 763 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 8: least the first quarter of the season. Antonio Piers saying 764 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 8: that they want to get off to a fast start, 765 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 8: and they have the Chargers, the Ravens, the Panthers, and 766 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 8: the Browns to start this season, and Gardner Minshew winning 767 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:05,400 Speaker 8: that job, which was obviously a comprehensive competition. Both Antonio 768 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 8: Piers and offensive coordinator to Luke Getzi said they were 769 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 8: evaluating everything beginning from the OTAs through mini camp and 770 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 8: training camp, but the one consistent message that stood out 771 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 8: above everything else was, like you mentioned, Antonio Pierce saying 772 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 8: he wants somebody who can extend plays, make some magic 773 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 8: outside of the pocket, but take care of the football. 774 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 8: Luke Getsy also saying for his offense, he wants somebody 775 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 8: who can take calculated risk, take educated chances, but take 776 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 8: care of the football. And you look at the production 777 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 8: between Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell in their three most 778 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 8: competitive situations that they've had in this training camp, the 779 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 8: two preseason games, and the scrimmage that they had earlier 780 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 8: in training camp. In the scrimmage, Gardner Minshew had the 781 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 8: two loan passing touchdowns. In the preseason games, Gardner Minshew 782 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 8: had explosive passes to Trey Tucker forty eight forty four 783 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 8: twenty nine yards, there had zero intercept. Aid and O'Connell 784 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 8: took a ten yard sack against the Vikings, and of 785 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 8: course against the Cowboys had the pick six that eventually 786 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 8: cost them the game. Now, obviously Pierce saying that one play, 787 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 8: that one game didn't decide this competition. But when you're 788 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,919 Speaker 8: looking at all of that in totality, not to mention 789 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 8: the energy, the leadership that is infectious that Gardner Minshew 790 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 8: can bring to the locker room, that can bring to 791 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 8: the organization all factored into that decision. Gardner Minshew going 792 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 8: to start the season as a Raiders starting quarterback start 793 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 8: the season. 794 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 6: So Aid and O'Connell, if you're watching, and who doesn't 795 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 6: watch The Insiders on a Monday, just because Gardner Minshew 796 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 6: is the guy week one, doesn't mean that He's going 797 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 6: to be the guy all the way through week eighteen. 798 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 6: Antonio Pierce wanted to see told us when we were 799 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 6: there a training camp that he wanted to see a 800 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 6: little bit more personality, a little bit more of a 801 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,600 Speaker 6: vocal presence from aide O'Connell. Let's see how he responds 802 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,479 Speaker 6: to not winning this job. It is not over yet, 803 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 6: aide O'Connell. Thank you very much, Omar Ruiz for joining 804 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 6: us on this Monday. We talked about Jimmy Buffett. Come Monday, 805 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 6: you know everything will be all right, right, That's what 806 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 6: he said. 807 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 2: Whoof those shirts are still sorry? My eyes are out 808 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 2: at this point. 809 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: The only other quarterback competition that involved two veterans and 810 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: not a rookie still undecided in Pittsburgh. Mike Tomlin referring 811 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 1: to it as an incomplete study, which might be a 812 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 1: softer way of saying what he really thought based upon 813 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: how the Steelers offense and the whole team has looked 814 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 1: here over the first couple of preseason games, Tom pilaicero 815 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: I and Rappaport back here on The Insiders presented by 816 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 1: Best Buy and there's been a lot of stuff going 817 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: on with Pittsburgh that's not just the quarterback, namely, the 818 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: offensive line just has not played very well to this point, 819 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 1: and they have been banged up and they've been shorthanded 820 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: in their first round pick hasn't been out there. What 821 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: do you make a where things stand right now between 822 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. Knowing that it's fair to say, 823 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 1: at least based upon the games we've seen, it's not 824 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: as if somebody's exactly reached out and grabbed this job. 825 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 5: True and best case scenario for the Pittsburgh Steelers would 826 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 5: be one of these guys, and really it doesn't matter who. 827 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 2: You sort of would think it'd be. 828 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 5: Russell Wilson considering he had pole position coming into preseason, 829 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 5: but Justin Fields had a really really good started preseason. 830 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 5: Either of those guys could take the job right now, 831 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 5: gravel to it, and be the start of the fact 832 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 5: that that doesn't happen, that has not happened is not great. 833 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 5: But it's not like Mike tom was saying, this is disappointing. 834 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 5: It's really just he hasn't fully been able to evaluate 835 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 5: his quarterback position. 836 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 2: No doubt some of that is because of the offensive line. 837 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 5: Maybe some of that is the fact that they don't 838 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 5: exactly have the second marquee receiver like Brandon Au could be. 839 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 2: You have to wonder if that maybe is part of 840 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 2: the product. They don't have an answer yet, not that 841 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 2: they won't, they just don't. 842 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 5: And look, this also is shaping up to be a 843 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,479 Speaker 5: situation where the Steelers could end up at some point 844 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 5: during the season playing both of these quarterbacks if one 845 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 5: doesn't stand out incomplete study. Yes, those are the words 846 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 5: of Mike Tomlins. Certainly no mistake using that description. 847 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,080 Speaker 1: Tom'll see how things play out here in the final 848 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: preseason week. Mike Tomlin never in a rush to do 849 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: something before he's ready to do it, he said, along 850 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson in the pole position, you would think if 851 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: neither guy separates himself this week, it may well be 852 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson out there in week one? Will it be 853 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: bow Nicks out there for the Broncos in week one? 854 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 1: He has certainly staked his claim to the job. Does 855 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks think he's earned it? Our expert rejoins to 856 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 1: discuss that right after this on The Insiders presented by 857 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: Best Buy. 858 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 2: Well. 859 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: If Sunday Night against the Packers was the test of 860 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: how ready Bonnicks is. He's certainly scored well on it 861 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: eight to nine, passing eighty yards in a touchdown, had 862 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: another touchdown wiped out because of penalty. John Payton said 863 00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: after the game, not yet ready to make any proclamations 864 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: on who's going to start, but all signs continue to 865 00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: point to the rookie number twelve overall pick. Welcome back 866 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: to the Insiders, presented by Best Buy Tom Pelliicero, joined 867 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: once again by Bucky Brooks. 868 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 2: Bucky, he broke this one down. You'll watch bo Knicks. 869 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 2: What'd you see? Look? 870 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 10: It appears to me that Sean Payton has a sweet 871 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 10: tooth for athletic quarterbacks. Were playmaking ability with high football 872 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 10: I cubes, because that's what bo Nicks is. And given 873 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 10: Sean Payton's history with Drew Brees, you can see why 874 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 10: he likes the young quarterback that came out of Oregon. 875 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 10: When you look at bow Knicks and you break him down, 876 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 10: you can see the maturity. You can see a guy 877 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 10: who has tremendous command of this offense as someone who's 878 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 10: playing with a lot of confidence. Now that makes sense 879 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 10: when you look at bo Nix's history sixty four stars 880 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 10: as a collegiate played at all, but then Oregon really 881 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 10: came into his own at Oregon and you see a 882 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 10: lot of those traits from what he did with the 883 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 10: Ducks translate to success with the Broncos. Smooth timing, rhythm, anticipation, 884 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,760 Speaker 10: passer who really understands how to execute the plan according 885 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 10: to the way that Sean Payton likes it. 886 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 1: I will say Bucky watching him, just seeing Bonick's physically 887 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 1: and watching the way that he moves. I also got 888 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: some Taysom Hill vibes in terms of that aspect of 889 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 1: his game. Obviously, Sean would love to find a combination 890 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: of those guys that he can work with there in Denver. 891 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,879 Speaker 1: What about Drake May Bucky, We're still hearing from Drod Mayo. 892 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 1: No decision on the quarterback. The plan was never It 893 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,959 Speaker 1: seemed to push the number three out pick out there 894 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 1: in year one. But the door at this point remains 895 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:24,359 Speaker 1: a jar. 896 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 10: Oh yeah, Jacoby said, left the door jar because the 897 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 10: offense isn't really moving when he's at the helm, and 898 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 10: so Drake may comes in. He excites everybody because he 899 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 10: has big time arm talent, he has playmaking ability, the athleticism, 900 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 10: he's inexperienced, but sometimes that inexperience can be overshadowed by 901 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 10: his athleticism. If you're the New England Patriots, you want 902 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:48,239 Speaker 10: to go slow and easy with the quarterback, but he 903 00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,720 Speaker 10: might be too good to keep on the bitch, especially 904 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 10: when you're making the competition between him and Jacoby Verssett. 905 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 7: This offense has responded with Drake May's been in the game. 906 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 10: Gerard Mayo may have to give the ball to the 907 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 10: young quarterback and kind of lived through some of the 908 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 10: growing pains that he ultimately experienced. 909 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: NFL dot Com, slash Scouts, Notebookie and read a lot 910 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: more from Bucky Brooks. 911 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 2: Bucky, thank you as always for being here. 912 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: You might have seen this about a thousand times to 913 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: your social media feeds. Patrick Mahomes did something even Patrick 914 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 1: Mahomes we haven't seen do in a game before. Let's 915 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 1: revisit some of the best most unique throws in NFL history. 916 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 13: Next on the insights, Mahomes keeps it goes behind them, 917 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 13: Kelsey's got it for the first day. 918 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 2: How do you like that? 919 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 13: Well, they talked about it in practice this. 920 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 12: Week, and Mahomes even talked about the fact that he 921 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 12: said Andy wants him to do it in a game. 922 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 2: Well, guess what here? 923 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: It is great call by our guy Ari Wolf right there. 924 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 1: Mike got us thinking before the show. Here, what's another 925 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: one of your favorite throws that you've ever seen in 926 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:53,240 Speaker 1: NFL history? 927 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 6: Oh, I would say in its spot. Eli Manning to 928 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 6: Mario Manningham super Bowl forty six. 929 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,840 Speaker 7: The movement with the feet. They really worked at his 930 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 7: feet that year. 931 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 6: So for him to create that laying the throw away 932 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 6: from the pressure, given it just another hair, and then 933 00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 6: put it exactly where it needed to be. 934 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 2: Perfect spot, so perfect. Here's another one that's perfect. Aaron 935 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 2: Rodgers to Jared. 936 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 5: Cook twenty seventy Divisional Round Game, three seconds left, third 937 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 5: and twenty. You can't do it better than that. I 938 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 5: literally yelled at the screen because it was such an 939 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 5: absurd throw. All time favorite for me. 940 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,880 Speaker 1: In terms of things I've never seen before or since. 941 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,239 Speaker 1: How about this one? I was in the Metrodome for 942 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: this play, Randy Moss. This is the final seconds of 943 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 1: the first time it's expiring over the shoulder to Moe 944 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 1: Williams for a touchdown. Dante Culpepper after the game called 945 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 1: it saucy an adjutate. I have not heard before or since. 946 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm bringing it back another saucy edition of the Inside 947 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:53,640 Speaker 1: Tomorrow night. 948 00:43:53,719 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 2: See it ye
