1
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: Welcome to the drive. I I'm Dale Ally. He is

2
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,920
Speaker 1: Matt Williamson, And well, uh, Matt, it looks like there

3
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: are reports out there that t J. Watt could avoid

4
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: surgery here uh and be back by Uh they're saying

5
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 1: week eight, Um, six weeks yeah, six weeks ish. Uh.

6
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: You know when Mike Tomlin spoke about it today at

7
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 1: his press conference, uh, you know, he did mention that, um,

8
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: he's only ruling him out for this week. Uh. You know,

9
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: and I know, talking to Tomlin about these kind of

10
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: things in the past, he's like, look, I'm never gonna

11
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,639
Speaker 1: say that a ridiculous athlete. You don't want to put

12
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: timetables on stuff. Yeah. Yeah, they heal a little bit

13
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: differently than than the normal human being. I mean, what

14
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 1: were you saying last week? Cam calls himself like the

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: or something like he gets hurt here and there, but

16
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: then he's fine, yeah whatever, Okay. Yeah, I mean, they

17
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: just they're just different. That's one of the things that

18
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: does make them different is that, you know, they just

19
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 1: they're built differently. Yeah, right right. I mean physiologically they're

20
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: a little different than the average joe walking around the street.

21
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: But it's a you know, if that if I had

22
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: that injury, I'd probably cry twenty four hours a day.

23
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 1: We wouldn't get out of bed. You know, that's just

24
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: the way it is. But that's great news. Yeah, no

25
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: matter what which way you got it. I mean yeah,

26
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: I think when everybody saw that, the first thing they

27
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: think of, well, he's gonna be out for the season.

28
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: I thought that, you know, that's not the necessarily the

29
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: norm for you know, guys tear their pack. Apparently that

30
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: was the injury that Miles Killerbrew was dealing with in

31
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: the in the preseason. Um missy missed all the preseason

32
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: games played last week it was back at a reasonable time. Yeah, um,

33
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: you know, so it does happen like at I think

34
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: even last year. J C. Hassenhauer remember went on injured

35
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: reserve late in the season with a with a pectorial injury.

36
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: That's it was a torn pack. He's back in four

37
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: weeks and started the next week, So which is great.

38
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: I mean, who am I always hate commenting on injuries,

39
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: but the second I heard torn pack, I thought that's

40
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: probably the year. And then I start doing homework. I

41
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: never do homework on injuries, but I did on this one,

42
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: and there's several degrees of them, and even the worst

43
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: of them, considering it was week one, you know, probably

44
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: would have finished this season, but not necessarily. You know,

45
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: some of them are you know, four months or I

46
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: mean it competes, you know, it just depends on how

47
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: how severe the terrors. Uh. You know, for example, when

48
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: when Cam Heyward tour his pack it tore off the bone,

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: that's a completely different thing. In the tear in the middle,

50
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: you know, or a slight tear or whatever. You know,

51
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: that's a pull muscle, right, So I mean, of course

52
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be benching and things like that in

53
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: the meantime. But you know, who knows how he comes back,

54
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: but he's coming back. But they'll be rehab. I mean,

55
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: I'm sure you know he'll be in the pool, you know,

56
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: doing tons of stuff, stuff like that. I mean, yeah,

57
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: I've been been through that rehab process with my shoulder

58
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: and you end up coming out of it stronger because

59
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: of all the work rehab workers here down So um, yeah,

60
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 1: but that's phenomenal news. I absolutely he's a season changing

61
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: type of player. Obviously, there aren't many of those. And

62
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: you know, Matt, when you start looking at the Steelers schedule. Um,

63
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: it's not a bad time to be missing him all

64
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: at all. No, I mean, especially after you stole the

65
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: win in Cincinnati with a little bit of house money.

66
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: Right now, they absolutely are. I mean I think everybody

67
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: you know, when you're sitting down and the schedule comes

68
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: out at the beginning of the year, Well, Cincinnati's opened

69
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: a season that's gonna be a loss, neither be a

70
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: dog going. And you go into that and you win it,

71
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: and now you look at the next the next few

72
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: games here Patriots in Pittsburgh. I still can't understand why

73
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: the Patriots are favored. I don't get that makes it

74
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: absolutely no sense, like they didn't watch the doll Fins

75
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: game at all or the entire preseason. Yeah. Then the

76
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: Steelers are at the Browns on a short week, which

77
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: is a daunting task to go anywhere on a short week,

78
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: but it's an easy road. But it's a winnable game

79
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: and there's no watching of course. Yeah, I mean, I

80
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: like their chances there. Then you get the run, then

81
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: you get the Jets at home. They're definitely favored in

82
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: that matter what happens between I mean, we are we

83
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: sitting here on October three, and the Steelers are four

84
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: and oh potentially, I don't think that's crazy. Yeah, I mean,

85
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: I honestly think three wins is the over under at

86
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: that point. Yeah, you know, because you stole that win

87
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: and one. Yeah, and then you get the Bills, you know,

88
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: the Bills on the road and the Buccaneers at home,

89
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: and that's that's you know, and then and then in Miami.

90
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: So the NFL changes pretty quick, I mean it does.

91
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: I'm not saying those three are gonna be easy games,

92
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: or they definitely won't be, but the Bills aren't gonna

93
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: look like they do right now. The Bucks are gonna

94
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: look like they've been. Steelers don't look like they did

95
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: when they started the game on Sunday, exactly exactly. So,

96
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, this was the best that anyone could root for. Um,

97
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: keep your head above water for a while, maybe even

98
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: have a winning record when he gets back, you know,

99
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: that's not so bad. Yeah, And you'd like to have

100
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: him back for that stretch that starts with the Bills,

101
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's Steelers at Bills, Buccaneers at Steelers,

102
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: Steelers at Dolphins, Steelers at Eagles, Saints at Steelers, Bengals

103
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: at Steelers, Steelers at Colts. I mean, that's a they

104
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: could all be playoff games. That's a daunting stretch. I

105
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,719
Speaker 1: don't know if my amy will get in, but I

106
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: picked all those other teams to go to the playoffs. Yeah,

107
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a that's a tough stretch of football.

108
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: So if you do happen to win these four, you

109
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: kind of get to have to be three and one

110
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: or four. Oh yeah, if you're doing in yeah, absolutely, um,

111
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, and then find a way to beat the Dolphins.

112
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: You know again, you comin will steal one of those

113
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: no matter what. You know, you start, you start doing

114
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,119
Speaker 1: things like that and all of a sudden, okay, yeah, okay,

115
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say they're gonna win the division or

116
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 1: anything like that, but you'd like to have that tiebreaker

117
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: and that, you know, that's a big thing. That the

118
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: other the hidden value of beating the Bengals, you beat

119
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 1: them a second time, that's a conference win. The same

120
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: thing with the game, the win against the Bills last year.

121
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: Those are conference wins. I mean, it's sounds so crazy

122
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: because it's Week one and we're a million years away,

123
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: but Denver losing last night helps you about things like that.

124
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: That's one of those teams everybody's picking Denver's you know,

125
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: or the Raiders losing. Okay, yeah, they you know, they

126
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 1: team great for you know, you gotta pay attention to

127
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: that stuff even in week one. But you know, so

128
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: some of the teams that you look at and say,

129
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 1: well that's what's that's one of the teams and Steelers

130
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: gonna be battling with for the for a you know,

131
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: potential wild card if it gets to that point. They lost,

132
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: New England lost, you know, now you get a chance

133
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: to get the tiebreaker against the Patriots and really you

134
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 1: put them in an O in two hole. Yeah, I mean,

135
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: and he head to head, they're gonna have a hard

136
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: time with you know, again, you want a road game,

137
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: you want a division game. There are two of the

138
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: toughest ones on the schedule in both those categories. Good

139
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: you know, and don't screw it up these next couple

140
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: of weeks, you know, I mean, if you can, if

141
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: you can go four and oh wow, that would really

142
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: be something. I think you'd take three and one. Yeah,

143
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: and you know, is the defense going to be as

144
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: dominant as it was in Cincinnati on Sunday. Probably not

145
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: without what I mean, even with him, you're probably not

146
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: going to duplicate those stats and those production and the takeaways.

147
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: You might have the sacks in that neighborhood, but you're

148
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: not gonna have five takeaways and turn the ball over

149
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: it all. I mean that that's that's a bit of

150
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: an on. But on the other side of the corner,

151
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: I expect the offense to continue to get better. That's

152
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: the key is. You know, if the offense can make

153
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: small steps forward while the defense keeps you afloat even

154
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: without what you're in it. And we went on special teams. Yeah,

155
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: and this is a marathon. Um, if that last month

156
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: of the season or so, the offense has gone from

157
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: bad to average to above average and the defense is

158
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: still top ten, top five. You know again, that's not crazy.

159
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: Talk to me. You're in it. You know you got

160
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: a shot. Let's look at that UM offense for a

161
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 1: second here. Um, I gotta called my d v o

162
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: A stats here. Um, some reason it got signed out

163
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: of football football side ers. Uh so they've already updated

164
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: their d v o A A one week after one weekend,

165
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: and I know they they apply some of their knowledge.

166
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: It's not just all one week to throw everything away.

167
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: You know, chicagoes one right, right. Um so if you

168
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: look at the defensive d v o A somehow dropped

169
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: the fourth. They were one to start, they were one

170
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 1: to start the season. But their minus their fourth but

171
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: their minus thirty one point nine. So that was so

172
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: really good, really good. Yeah, if you ended up at

173
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: minus thirty one point nine, you would take that all

174
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: all year long. The special teams from Sunday or from yeah,

175
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: from Sunday's game, well that was the six best special

176
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: team's performance. Well, they missed a kick, I mean, I

177
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: know they blocked one. They missed one. They also got

178
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: a twenty punt return. They averaged they were good on

179
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: coverage forty two point five or whatever on the net

180
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: average on the points, I mean they were they were

181
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: really good there. And they didn't get they can't give

182
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: up any returns kickoff returns. I mean, they definitely won

183
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: the special teams battle in that game. Yeah. Um so

184
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 1: they came out of that. Remember in the preseason, I

185
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: think they were like twenty second. Yeah, well now they're

186
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: now they're well above average. They're six there. That's absolutely

187
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 1: an area of this team has to win in the margin.

188
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: You know, like I'm starting to preview the Patriots. You

189
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 1: look at them and they're not very impressive, but they

190
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 1: win the turnover battle. They win in hiding the hidden,

191
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: that kind of steal position with the special teams. Offensively,

192
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: the d v O A, I think that's correct. Yeah,

193
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,680
Speaker 1: it wasn't the best. It certainly won the best performance,

194
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: but it wasn't the worst performance. There were some of

195
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: the YEA of the week, including I'm just looking at

196
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: more to see where New England came in at. On

197
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,199
Speaker 1: the offense, let's just that for all that's here. So

198
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: Kansas City at the number one offensive performance of the week.

199
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: They were dominant. Minnesota was two. They were they were gonna.

200
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: Baltimore was three. New Orleans somehow was four. New Orleans.

201
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: The second half was really strong for them. Atlanta was five. Wow.

202
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, uh, New England came in at I'm thinking

203
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: they they they're much higher than that they came in Okay,

204
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean I'll buy that they played a good defense.

205
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: They moved to football, so um, they had a couple

206
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: of big plays against them. They had a strip sack first, uh,

207
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: you know for six points. It was a big deal.

208
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: Obviously it hurts them um still. I mean their offense

209
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: wasn't particularly good at all, so but the twenty you know,

210
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: so if they're twenty third best offense and then you're

211
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,719
Speaker 1: facing you know, the Steelers defense. They came in defensively

212
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 1: the Patriots and special teams was tent Okay, they were

213
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: like one or two to start, so they I mean

214
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: they took a step back and everything. If you look

215
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: at the overall d v the Steelers now eighth in

216
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: team d v O A the Patriots. Okay, I mean

217
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: I'm not sure the Steelers are the eighth best team,

218
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: but they put in the eighth best performance of the weekend,

219
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 1: right compared to what we knew coming into the season

220
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,959
Speaker 1: as well. Interesting, just curious where's where's the rest of

221
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: the division sit in terms of overall d overall d

222
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: v A. Remember the Ravens I believe started in second.

223
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: They're still second. Yeah, they were good, but I mean

224
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 1: after you know, looking at them a little bit more,

225
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: I was not blown away. They had some big plays,

226
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: there were some blown coverages by the Jets. Jets offense

227
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: really struggled. Cleveland right now a seventh really yeah, I

228
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 1: was shocked they beat the Panthers. To be honest with you,

229
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: I felt pretty good about that game. The offensive d

230
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: v o A is nine. They were in the ball

231
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 1: well and to nobody's surprise, tent and defensive d v

232
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: O and fourth and special teams. Okay, that young kicker

233
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: they have kind of interesting and all of a sudden,

234
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: the AFC North has four studley standing. That could be

235
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,319
Speaker 1: a big deal in close games. Then you get the

236
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: Steelers at eight, and then the Bengals came in all

237
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: the way down at Bengals. Yeah, they're offensive d v

238
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: o A. K. They came out of that game in

239
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: the league offensive d v O A. With all the

240
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: yards that they that's you know yards, I mean, their

241
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: yardage wasn't that impressive. They snapped the ball one hundred times.

242
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: They average point two yards per play more than the

243
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: Steelers didn't that game right? Right? They were almost even

244
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: a lot of those metrics were very even. Just one

245
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: team had the ball a lot longer and ran a

246
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: lot more plays. And that's what happens. I think Mike

247
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: Tomlin referenced it today. You said, look, look we get

248
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: a touchdown on off a turnover. You're immediately right back

249
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: out there. Oh that's right. I mean it's great to

250
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: turn the football over, but that can be hard on

251
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: your defense because you know, you don't get that that

252
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: long break. Yeah, so there. I mean there were some

253
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 1: times there where the Bengals were on the field while

254
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: and the Bengals came out of that twenty nine and

255
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: special teams d V A M you know, miskicks they

256
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: give up a block. Um, if the Steelers are fourth

257
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: or whatever. You said, Well, the Bengals must have beyond

258
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: the opposite end of the spectrum. Yeah, so, uh came out. Well,

259
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,359
Speaker 1: we'll check it back on that, you know, next week. Yeah,

260
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: but certainly the Steelers came out of that one. Well,

261
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: the Bengals have an easy one this week. I forget

262
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: who they got Dallas. Yeah, so I would expect them

263
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 1: to bend without Dock there. And you're getting Dallas even

264
00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: without you know, even if you don't have Higgins there,

265
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: you're okay, then I don't have the whole player or not.

266
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: But um, since he's not in a great spot, but

267
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: that's a nice time to get Dallas. Yeah. Yeah, and

268
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: they're still trying to figure things out, you know. Um,

269
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: any nausey news. Tomlin said it wasn't an aggravation of

270
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 1: the foot issue from training. Yeah, but he said he

271
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: wants to see him practice this week before he plays. So, uh,

272
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 1: they're optimistic about that. Looks like Mason Cole they're optimistic about.

273
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: He might be held back a little bit in practice

274
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: to start the week, but they expect that. So overall,

275
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: the injury news isn't bad. It looked a lot worse.

276
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: Was much And that's what Tomlas said. You know, that's

277
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: you know, coming out of we feel better about this,

278
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: and we did on Sunday. You know, it was a

279
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 1: little frightening. It's like, boy, good thing they won, but

280
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: they took some body blows here. Yeah, and it looks

281
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: like there'll be in a lot nothing season ending and

282
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: that's what that's what you want to avoid. Yeah. The

283
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 1: one I didn't see I saw those other ones was

284
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: Levi Wallace. If you've seen any news on him, he

285
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: said that was basically he said the rest of was

286
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: just bumps and bruises. So we expected Levy Wallace be

287
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: back this week and you know, maybe maybe he doesn't

288
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: practice tomorrow or something like that, but should be back.

289
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: And well, do you need to leave by Wallace necessarily

290
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: against This isn't a terrible game for him to not

291
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: be in there. If you know you're not gonna live

292
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: in nickel and dime like you did against Cincinnati, you know,

293
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: I mean I read this today only the Panthers and

294
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: Patriots used only two offensive personnel groupings for the entire

295
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: game in Week one, so they were almost fifty percent

296
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: and twelve and eleven and they don't throw a lot

297
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: at you. The Patriots have five wide receivers on their roster,

298
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 1: and one of them is Matthew Slater, who Tomlin did.

299
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: Tomlin called out today and said he's He's not just

300
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: a great special teams player for this generation, he's a

301
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: great special teams player for of all time, an all

302
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: time great. Yeah. Yeah, it's Agilora, DeVante Parker, Jacoby Myers,

303
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: Kendrick Borne and Matthew Slater. Is there a more nondescriptive

304
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: group of wide receivers? And I mean there's some other

305
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: teams out there to have some bad ones. They're waiting

306
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: for Taekwon Thornton to come back, but it's not like

307
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: he's a world beat They took him a second round

308
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: and we wanted them in the fifth, you know, like,

309
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 1: I mean he's fast, that's abouts. One thing is all

310
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 1: those guys don't really have great speed. I mean, at

311
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: least Thornton has that. They're they're tight ends, don't run great.

312
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: Um the receiver, the backs aren't super dynamic. But I

313
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: thought it was interesting because even going back to last year,

314
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: Like I don't think Kendrick Boorne is great, don't get

315
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: me wrong, but you go back to last year, some

316
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: of his advanced metrics like yards per route run just

317
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: efficiency numbers. He was the best Patriot receiver last week

318
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: they barely used them. Yeah, he's he's he's the one guy.

319
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: He's on the bench now with Slater who's a special

320
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: teams player, right, and Born does things. I mean, Parker

321
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: is kind of acting like they're one. Myers is a

322
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: slot and he's he's Tyler Boyd. Yeah, I mean, he's

323
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: a chain mover. He's fine. He's you know, catch ninety

324
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: balls maybe for yards or something any signed, but there's

325
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: no splash um. And I thought Henry looked good in

326
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: the game, but he's not a superstar. Yeah, I mean

327
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: I just look at that offense and go, Okay, where's

328
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: the who's who are afraid of? Are you afraid of?

329
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: On that offense? And I rewatched their game last night

330
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: or watched it, i should say, the first time against

331
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,119
Speaker 1: the Patriots or their Dolphins, and I'm like, all right there.

332
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: You know when when those running backs get outside, Yeah

333
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: they're not bad ball carriers, yeah, but neither one of

334
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: them a home run hitters, or they've really got to

335
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: get their their offense ten yards at a time at most.

336
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: They're just not gonna get any chunk plays on you.

337
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: They're not a chunk play offense at all. And I

338
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: don't think Matt Jones has really built that way either. Um.

339
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 1: I know he's playing and he's fine, but if you watch,

340
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: I mean you did watch that Miami game. I think

341
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: his back was bugging him as the game went on too.

342
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 1: I mean, he took some hits, took some hits, and

343
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: he looked stiff throwing the football and wasn't real comfortable.

344
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: And the protection is not great. The Miami throws a

345
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: lot at you, and the Miami blitz was blitzing the

346
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: safety or nickel corner. They were bringing defensive backs a lot,

347
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 1: a lot, a lot, and Patriots didn't pick it up. No, No,

348
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: so I would expect you'll see some of that this week. No,

349
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: I know. I mean I'm not picking on the current

350
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: coaches at all here with the Steelers, but when Scarneckio

351
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: retires from New England or Munschack leaves from Pittsburgh, the

352
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: O line suffer, you know, like you have an elite

353
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 1: O line coach. Well, here's the thing. So their offensive

354
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: line coach is Patricia who's also serving as a coordinator,

355
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: and there were times in the preseason it's nuts where

356
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 1: he Patricia's off doing offensive coordinator stuff and the whole

357
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: offensive line is gathered around David Andrews. Coaches up. Yeah,

358
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: looking at the looking at the Okay, here's what we

359
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: gotta do. No offense to David Andrews, who's a good

360
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: football player. He's equipped to do that as well as anyone.

361
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: But he's not a coach, right, how's he coaching up?

362
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 1: Cole Strange it was it was a rookie next to him.

363
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: They flip flopped Isaiah Win and Trent Brown once. You know,

364
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: from the right to the left. Trent's now on the left,

365
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 1: Trends on the left, and Winds on the right. Yeah,

366
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: which is weird. They couldn't be any more different either. No,

367
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: but I mean that's kind of where I was going

368
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: with the Munchak. You know, thing is elite old line

369
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 1: coaches are almost like elite quarterback and they're huge difference.

370
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: Just because David Andrews once played under Scarnecki, it doesn't

371
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: mean he's what you call it in or whatever. Yeah,

372
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: I mean, that's so weird to me that Judge and

373
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: Patricia are doing as much as they are offensively to

374
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: begin with. But he should be in charge of the

375
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: old line. They're the guys that he coached up the minutia.

376
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: You would think that the tiny details those are line

377
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,959
Speaker 1: coaches during the game are on the eviably busy. You know,

378
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: move your blocking angle just a little in your hands,

379
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,719
Speaker 1: a little too outside, you know, etcetera, etcetera. You know,

380
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: I don't understand the whole set up with that offense. Yeah,

381
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: nor do I. It's it's a strange bit of hubers

382
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: here on the Belichick's part. Either he's a genius and

383
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: we're all stupid, which hey, if anyone is, but wow,

384
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: the results of not showing that to be the case,

385
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: oh not at all. And they're trying to implement more

386
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 1: Shanahan zone play action boots, you know, as is the

387
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: whole league. I get that, but that's not even what

388
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: Mac Jones as well. You know, he's a Brady clone.

389
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: You have the Blade, you had the Brady playbook, trying

390
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: to play like Tom and now they're kind of moving

391
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: that around too. I don't understand it. It's it's it's

392
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 1: a strange one for sure. Um but I I looked

393
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,479
Speaker 1: at that offense and I'm like, oh my god, like,

394
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 1: it's who you where's the speed? Where's the speed? I

395
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: mean almost any offense out there, some of the bad ones,

396
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: the giants, you know. I mean there's a couple of dudes.

397
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: It's like, we'll be got worried about him. Yeah he

398
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,160
Speaker 1: might run by you. Yeah, who's who in this off sense?

399
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: Is running by anybody who's gonna might run by somebody?

400
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: But he might, but he might drop the ball to

401
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: drop the ball, and you know he's not real big

402
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: and he's kind of just a guy too. And what's

403
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: crazy about it is Smith, Henry agil Are probably others

404
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: are really expensive. They went have paid a lot of

405
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: money for these guys. They're not difference makers, you know, collectively,

406
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,679
Speaker 1: maybe they're better than the you know, each if this

407
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 1: thing starts to click, and at some point I'll probably click.

408
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: You know, they're having the same conversations we are. I'm

409
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: sure that we'll get this thing right. We knew it

410
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: was gonna be slow. Blah blah blah. Boy, I just

411
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 1: don't see. They'd kill for Chase Claypool, Yeah, any one

412
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: of those guys. Yeah, I mean, it might kill for

413
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: Miles Boykin right right now. I hear you, Austin, you

414
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: know a guy like that. It's just yeah, it's it's

415
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: a very nondescriptive offense. We'll talk more about them as

416
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: the week goes on here. But the good news for

417
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers on the injury front, for sure, Uh, it

418
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: looked like it might be something way more serious for

419
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 1: t J. Wat looking like it's a I'm gonna say

420
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: four to six weeks. I mean, I think you know,

421
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: you never want to say that that again, that that

422
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 1: that ridiculous athlete can't get back a little bit sooner

423
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 1: than than what everybody's saying. You're not implying like, boy,

424
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: if he takes six weeks, he's a whosh. No. No,

425
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: if it's longer than that, you know well, you know,

426
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: injuries or injuries, you can't It's not like you can

427
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: open it up and you know, pop it open. So

428
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 1: oh yeah, that's not so bad. I mean you're talking

429
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: m ryes and but they avoided disaster absolutely absolutely. I mean,

430
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 1: rather anyone got hurt, maybe my last one in the

431
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: last pack, last pick, but he'd certainly be cam pretty high.

432
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: Yeah at this rate, you know right now, maybe Manka

433
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: until until Kazy gets but I mean when the defensive

434
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: player of the year though, like I did win the

435
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the year if its or buts about that,

436
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: and um, well we'll see if he can. You know,

437
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: he'll have maybe ten games when he gets back. Yeah,

438
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: what he can do, see what he can do. But uh,

439
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,719
Speaker 1: he is, he made an impact in that game. Are

440
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: better than people think too. I mean none of them

441
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 1: are what we even implying that. But no, they're not

442
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: turning they're not turning it over to Joe Slappy here.

443
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 1: All three of those guys, including Jones, can play. Yeah,

444
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: so he is. Matt Williamson, I am Dale Lala. You're

445
