I know everybody wants 47 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: to talk about. Are we getting this man or not 48 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: good idea or a bad idea? What are we doing? 49 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: The fans are going crazy. Cuss us out, come, cuss 50 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: us out. We need you well, you know stands. What 51 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: do you guys think signed him? Don't sign him? What 52 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: are you thinking? I'm letting Jesse go curse on that one? Well, 53 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm letting Kurt go first. You guys have seen practice, 54 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: may know better. But the report you're sounding like Clinton 55 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: Dix isn't playing very well and Darian Thompson could be 56 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: your second starting safety. I don't know, are you feeling 57 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: good about that one? Um? You know, Thomas sounds like 58 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: he's got a lot of baggage with him, so I 59 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: don't know. It better be a sweet, sweet deal for 60 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, you know, uh, you know, I've got to 61 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: see a few practices thanks to Nick eating and the guys, 62 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: you know, and and Derek though and uh, Shannon, you 63 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: didn't have anything to do with it. But anyway, Uh, 64 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think these coaches are liking Darien too. 65 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: He ran a lot Sunday with with with the first team. Uh. 66 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: But I heard him. I heard coach Nolan Holland some 67 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: positives at how Clinton Dick. So we'll see, man, the 68 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: competition is thick at a few positions and a few 69 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: positions I found out the competition ain't even what we 70 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: thought it would be, you know. So because they get 71 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: they feel good about certain guys due to this pandemic 72 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: and uh speth on the young guys. Uh, you know, 73 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,600 Speaker 1: they got thirty one in there, Treyvon Diggs, he's working. Uh. 74 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: But other than that, the other rookies, man, they just 75 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: getting in where they fit in at. But for me, 76 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a complicated thing for me because 77 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: you think we always remember what Earl Thomas was when 78 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: he was with the Legion of Boom and Seattle, just 79 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: how good of a player he was. I'm not saying 80 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: that he's fallen off a lot, but he's fallen off 81 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: something that just happens with age and time that you 82 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: lose some of that productivity, some of that ability to 83 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: go out there and be just a supernatural athlete. And 84 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: my biggest thing is when you're trying to create a 85 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: new culture. When you brought in Freaky Mike and the crew, 86 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: you're you're trying to create this entirely new culture with 87 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: guys who the coaching staff is kind of still unfamiliar with. 88 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: They met him, you know, via online, but this is 89 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: the first chance they got a chance to be with 90 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: them hands on. And so when you're trying to create 91 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: that culture and you're trying to have those personalities come 92 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: to the forefront. And we've seen this team in the 93 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: past before that when it comes to leadership, they don't 94 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: have the alpha dogs that Nate you had in the nineties, 95 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: right because we saw guys come in who's been here 96 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,559 Speaker 1: for five or six days and all of a sudden 97 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: they lead the team. And we know the guys that 98 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: you played with Nate and other teams with a come 99 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: in and said, hold on, young fellow. You know, hold on, 100 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: my guy. We appreciate you being here. But I do 101 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 1: the hooting hollerand around here, I tell folks who are 102 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: to go So now what you have to always have 103 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: in the back of your mind is if you let 104 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,799 Speaker 1: a guy like Earl Thomas come into this fold, who 105 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: seems to be one of those guys who is a 106 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: dominant alpha male, what message is he's sending you got guys, 107 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: you're trying to get acclimated, guys, you're trying to bring 108 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: a long system, you're trying to input things that you're 109 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: trying to get figured out. And when you add an 110 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas to that mix, and from what the reports 111 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: have been saying, from what he was and Baltimore was, 112 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: he just beginning to do his own thing. He kind 113 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: of almost went rogue, showing up late for meetings, being 114 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: contentious with his teammates, doing his own thing. If that's 115 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: the kind of culture that you want to input into 116 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: your you know, that kind of adds to you want 117 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: to input into your culture, then you could be setting 118 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: yourself up for disaster. So it kind of comes to 119 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 1: that point where does his talent outweigh all of the 120 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: other things that comes, all the other baggage. And if 121 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: the answer is closer to know than a resounding guest, 122 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: then I stay away from a guy like that, and 123 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: I just go forward with the guys that I have, 124 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: because it's much easier to get those guys to kind 125 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: of do what we need to get done. Maybe not 126 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: as a maybe maybe not be more as athletic as 127 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas, but they're gonna be where up they're supposed 128 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: to be, be there own time, have the right attitude, 129 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: have the right culture viewpoint, and and and and you know, 130 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: be assigned aligned, and just do their job and not 131 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: try to go off script like we've seen and heard 132 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas was doing in Baltimore. Uh. And so that's 133 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: where I'm at with that. I'm not I'm not a 134 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: I wasn't a huge fan of signing him when he 135 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: left Seattle. I'm not a huge fan of signing him now. 136 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: The thing with him is just as he's not. I 137 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: watched him play a little bit last year because I 138 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: like to follow guys who i've fans seem to go 139 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: overboard with, and I follow him. He's not that guy anymore. 140 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: And when you start showing up late and not being 141 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: the guy you was in Seattle, everybody, everybody knows that 142 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: you've fallen off a liit physically, but they wanted that 143 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: leadership that you brought in Seattle, that promptness, stood attention 144 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: to detail. You went off on this guy about him 145 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: probably blowing us sigmon or vice versus. We don't know 146 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: the inside stir on that, but you took it too far. 147 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: So what you're telling the Ravens is your services are 148 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: no longer needed because they have a culture of toughness, 149 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: of doing the right thing, of playing great defense. Here 150 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboys. What I felt we lost over time, Jesse, 151 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: you may you can bite into this is we lost 152 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 1: the voice in the room with the coaches. The coaches 153 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: here are trying to establish themselves and who they are. 154 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: They are the alpha males right now, and they will 155 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: let as this team go, they will find their own 156 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 1: alt for males, guys that they can trust to step 157 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: up and say and do the right thing, much like 158 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,559 Speaker 1: Jimmy did. We when Jimmy got here, nobody was alt 159 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: for mail. But as time went on, the Emmett Smells, 160 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: the Charles Hayles, the Tony's Holbers, Troy Agmans, they stepped 161 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: up and went into the leadership roles. And I think 162 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: that's what they want. They When you have a bad 163 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: report as a veteran player, especially one that's making a 164 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: lot of money and not living up to that production 165 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: of that money. No, you don't bring him here. And 166 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 1: I'm always be excited about a player. But does he 167 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: fit I don't think not right now. Maybe maybe coach 168 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: can talk to him. Freaky Mike has a way of 169 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: talking to guys and getting them settle down. But to 170 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: know what, I couldn't trust Thomas at this time. Who 171 00:09:53,240 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: do y'all think? Go ahead, shall Well, you're gonna to 172 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: expound on that, curt Are You're just gonna say, hey, 173 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: I think you'll bring up a great point. I don't 174 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: want to cut off our favor. I think y'all, Hey, 175 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: I think y'all brought up some great points. Stop go ahead, 176 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: and my point, I mean, my point is exactly your point. 177 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: I guess I hadn't thought about it in terms of 178 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: the leadership aspect. But I mean they have some young 179 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 1: guys who are trying to develop now as leaders of 180 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith. I mean, does he get affected by that, 181 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Lawrence? Does he get affected by that? I just 182 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm agreeing with you guys, is that I don't know 183 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: if the talent there is worth it anymore. To potentially 184 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: disrupt what McCarthy's trying to build, what this defense is 185 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: trying to build. I mean, Jaylen had some quotes yesterday 186 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 1: or over the weekend about, you know, the defense has 187 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: something to prove and he wants to be a leader 188 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: in that, and according to reports, in practice, he's doing 189 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,080 Speaker 1: exactly that. He's playing ball. So I would hate to 190 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: disrupt any of where this team has headed, what this 191 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: team is building by bringing in the guy that you know, 192 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: he left seat under bad terms and you know, apparently 193 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: got in a fight with a teammate in Baltimore and 194 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: like they said, you know, in late to practice and 195 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: all that, I mean not apparent, not apparently not yea, 196 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: not apparently. Yeah, but you don't. You just can't bring 197 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: that into this this situation where got a you know, 198 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: Harbo and that that already established regime there can't control 199 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 1: or keep you know, they're him from affecting their locker room. 200 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how a new one can either, you know, Yeah, 201 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,079 Speaker 1: I think Yeah. To expand on that, I think one 202 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: of the weirdest feeling things on game day last year 203 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: was when they brought in Michael Bennett and and he 204 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: stepped up towards the end of the year and became 205 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 1: a vocal leader on the team when you kind of thought, okay, 206 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: the vocal leaders are these guys, and he kind of 207 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: stepped in and you know, would would break down the huddle, 208 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: and he was very vocal in the locker room and like, 209 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: like really vocal, like you could hear him yelling outside 210 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: of the locker room sometimes. And to me, that was 211 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: a really weird vibe because you had built this team 212 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: and you had kind of got your guys in there, 213 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 1: and then another guy comes in that that was new 214 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: to the team and was very you know, outspoken and 215 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: a very alpha, alpha male type guy, and to me, 216 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: it just you know, I'm obviously not in the locker room, 217 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: but just being around the team, it was just a 218 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: strange vibe, and I wonder, you know, obviously this would 219 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: be a little different because it's at the beginning of 220 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: the season and not in the middle of the season, 221 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: but it's kind of the same premise. You bring a 222 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: very outspoken, you know, dominant guy in a locker room 223 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: and it changes the whole dynamic when you've you've built 224 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: it with the guys that you want here. So I'm 225 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: from that standpoint, I'm kind of like, hey, let's just 226 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: let's see what you got. You got this team, you 227 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: you built it in the offseason. You got your guys 228 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: in here. Now, if the guy can play and play 229 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: his lights out, obviously that changes a lot. If a 230 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: guy can, you know, come in and he's the best 231 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: of his position. Um, but I just I'm kind of like, you, guys, 232 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: why why mess with it? Why messed with the chemistry 233 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: when you have your established leaders in the locker room. 234 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: If you're not bringing in Lebron yeah, I mean honest, 235 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: I mean, because you just don't need him, you know it. 236 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: And it probably it probably wasn't a long discussion. You know, 237 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: it probably wasn't a long discussion. We probably gave it 238 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 1: more conversations than they did, you know, because coach McCarthy 239 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: made a statement, we're confident in our eighty guys. Is 240 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: that not what he says? I mean, y'all've read something, 241 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: you know, some statements. Well, he said he's contact with 242 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: his eighty guys. With that said, though, not to say 243 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: that behind work closed not to say behind closed doors, 244 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: y'all know, Like, oh, Nate, you gotta eat your words. Uh, 245 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: we got we got talking, but still said, are you guys, 246 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: how was it with Clinton when you guys were worried 247 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: about the position that you knew was a a vocal 248 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: guy and he was gonna change the dynamic of the 249 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: locker room. What were the conversations among players? Did you 250 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: guys even care? Were you just like whatever? Or were 251 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: there conversations of like, hey, you know this is gonna change, 252 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: or hey, you know this guy's gonna challenge this guy 253 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: or things like that. How is it as players when 254 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: you know that a new guy might be coming in? 255 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: This is how it was for me because we I 256 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: experienced that with Charles Haley. When you see Jimmy with 257 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: bring guys in. Jimmy liked to bring guys in the 258 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: just let him hang out. He will say, hey, Mike, 259 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: come get this guy. Got him over here, He'll let 260 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: it if he's serious about he would let him hang 261 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: out with us and watch how we worked and how 262 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: we do things. How this guy mashed with other guys, 263 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: but Charles Haley he was getting regardless of what we thought. 264 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: Because all Jimmy wanted to know was did he love football? 265 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: And was he went in to work and rushed the 266 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: passer and all those criterias was met. He brought Charles 267 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: in and the first time we got in a team setting, 268 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: Charles just started giving out advice, whether it was wanted 269 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: or wounded. He started scouting everybody. I mean, he broke 270 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: down the whole locker room, every player that he thought 271 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: was an intricate part of his team. He broke it down. 272 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: He broke them down, he scouted them and cussed us 273 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: all out as he did it. Now, the day's locker 274 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: rooms can't handle that, and I promise you ain't. But 275 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: a few locker rooms can handle that type of guy. 276 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: But we can handle that guy because we know who 277 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: we were and we know what we were about, and 278 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 1: that's winning games. So that was a difference, Jesse. And 279 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: maybe you have a different experience than me. No, I 280 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: think the same thing that you said, Nate, which I 281 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: think rings true through a lot of locker rooms. In 282 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: the locker room that I was in, several locker room 283 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: that I was in, the biggest thing is the biggest 284 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: thing is it's can you help us? Like, can you 285 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: help us and win football games? If that's that's a yes, right, 286 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: then everything else we can adjust with. But if you're 287 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: if if that's the first thing that you want to 288 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: see when a new guy comes there and you go, Okay, 289 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: I've seen all this, guys, and then you start looking 290 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: at his work ethic, what is he doing in practice 291 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: and meetings? And can he help us win? Because what 292 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: you don't want, you don't want the distractions to come 293 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: in because you're already saying it's hard enough to do 294 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: what we do and to get wins. And when we 295 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: bring somebody else in who ain't really with us, who 296 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: ain't been with us for instead of big amount of time, 297 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: and you're a distraction. But then that's when you come 298 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: a little bit of an outcast. But guys want to 299 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: know can this guy help us win? Because everyone understands 300 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: that there's a fine window of opportunity that you have 301 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: to play in this league to win football games and 302 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: win at a high rate. So if a guy can 303 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: come in and does it it can play and does 304 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: it kill our chemistry, then he's welcomed in, you know. 305 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: And you look at a guy like Charles Halley, and 306 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,719 Speaker 1: Charles may have come in and cussed everybody out, but 307 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: Charles came in and he went to work, you know 308 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So his productivity was at a level 309 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: where you say, you know what, it's maybe not the 310 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: dude that we want to always be friends with, but 311 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: I want them on my team on Sunday. And that's 312 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: the kind of thing that you got to be able 313 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: to differentiate when you're talking about the guys in the 314 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: locker room at different positions and so on and so forth. 315 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: So you know, and that's the thing is that what 316 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: a lot of times is is the talent worth the 317 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: tolerance of whatever they bring. England when you went to 318 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: New England, man, your talent was so great on the 319 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: special team that hey, Belichicks and we could put up 320 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: with Jesse, right. You see, I ain't stay long. Wasn't 321 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 1: good enough, Kurt, Kurt, you drought up earlier Jalen and 322 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: you know he's he's been having a good training camp 323 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,719 Speaker 1: so far. And you know, we know that the issues 324 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: that Sean Lee's had was staying on the field. And 325 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: then you know, Layton, we'll see what happens with with 326 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 1: his health issues. Jalen's been doing some great things off 327 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: the field as entrepreneurs Approach entrepreneurship program that that he 328 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: started this year. It was just really cool thing that 329 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 1: he did, and he's doing a lot of stuff off 330 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: the field. Is he ready to take that step and 331 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: become a leader on this defense and step up and 332 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: be in the same conversation as a Tyrone Crawford and 333 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: and a DeMarcus Lawrence and those type guys, because you know, 334 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: if Sean Lee and Laton have a hard time getting 335 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: on the field, he's going to be a guy that 336 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 1: these some of these younger guys look up to because 337 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: he's been on the team for quite a few years now. 338 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: Is he ready to take that step? And is he 339 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: that guy? Is he ready? I think I think Nate's 340 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 1: shaking his head. Let me say this, man, I've watched 341 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: him and he is practicing lights out. Yaya, don't do 342 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: nothing for me? Does a lot for me? Okay? And 343 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: who was beating Jaylor's horn two years ago? More than me? 344 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: I go by what I see in games. Jayalen can 345 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: go back to that guy two years ago easily because 346 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: he has athletic skills and he has the will to 347 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: do it. Now. Jayleen has been looking good in practice 348 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: the three or four I've seen, he's looked good. Lateness 349 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 1: came up and it's not been live, but he's came 350 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: up and stuck his his head and his shoulders and 351 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: everything into the little bit they've done. Both of these 352 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: guys combined can be something truly special, especially when they 353 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: get pulled back in there full time. But right now 354 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: he's doing everything perfect. And the reason I'm shaking my 355 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: head is not that I can't believe that he can't 356 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: be a leader. But if under the direction of playing 357 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: well through these coaches scheme and they're gonna put him 358 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: in position and make plays, and if Jalen stole back 359 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: chackling the way we saw two years ago, and you'd 360 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: be like, Yeah, ain't nobody gonna doot his horn bigger 361 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: than me? But right now, no, until I see it. No. 362 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: Last year he got some criticism for a kind of 363 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: freelancing a little too much. Well to move to weak side. 364 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 1: Help that because he can roam a little more, is 365 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: Kurt let me slow done? The coaches were not tolerated. 366 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: I don't think the coaches would tolerate the freelancing unless 367 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: you prove to them that you are instinctive enough to win. 368 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: You freelance seventy percent of the time you win the 369 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: great I can't pronounce the kid name, y'all help me 370 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: to get this safety for the Stillers, Oh well, I 371 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: the model. Yeah and Earl Thomas when they were in 372 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: their prime at safeties, they would freelance a lot and 373 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: coaches would never say nothing because seventy five the eighty 374 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: percent of the time they were spot on making plays. 375 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: If Jayalen exhibits that, then coach would be like, okay, 376 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: what did you see? You explain, They're like okay, cool, 377 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: I understand, but what did you see? And you ain't 378 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: made a tackle all game? And you're like, well, I 379 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: saw this. What did the defense say? What was your assignment? 380 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 1: Jesse speak on this? Please? No, you're hitting it right 381 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: on the head. That's the that's the that's the catalyst 382 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: for Jaylen Smith is we don't need the raw rod. 383 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: We got enough. Ra Roy guys, we don't need enough. 384 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: We don't need all the words and the speeches and 385 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: all that just swiping all that kind of stuff. For Jayleen, 386 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 1: it his leadership comes with the productivity. Can you go 387 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: out there and make plays at your position, That's all 388 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: we care about, That's all your teammates are going to 389 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 1: care about. And then once you do that, because we 390 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: see we get a chance to sit on these shows 391 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: for an hour and talk this and that, XS and 392 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: those and all that kind of stuff. But Jayala is 393 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: sitting in the meeting room with his teammates and they're 394 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: watching the film with him and seeing him freelance and 395 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: be wrong and be out of position and miss tackles, 396 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: and they're like, damn, bro, I mean cool, you know it. 397 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: We cool and were cool and all. But you know 398 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: if your message falls on deaf ears. When I'm sitting 399 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,959 Speaker 1: in a meeting room with you and I see your 400 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: screw ups and then you come out and tell me, 401 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: come on, we gotta be great today, I'm looking at 402 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 1: you like damn. But in practice what your priest brother like, 403 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: you've been great. First, before you tell me to be great, 404 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: you go out, head in, lineup and be where you're 405 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 1: supposed to be and make the tackles cover guys. And 406 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: then once you do that, man, you could tell me. 407 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: You could tell me that annexation of Puerto Rico and 408 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: I'm gonna listen to you. You can tell me every 409 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: you can read to me the back of a paint can, 410 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 1: and I'm going to listen to you. But you can't. 411 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: You can't sit here and be the leader of me, 412 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: of another grown man. You can't leave me when I'm 413 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: sitting here watching you in film be trash. And I'm 414 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: not taking personal shots at Jail, and I'm just giving 415 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: you what it looks like when you're sitting in a 416 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: meeting room and they get to see every single snap 417 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 1: dissected over and over and over again, whether that be 418 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: in the defensive meeting room or when you go to 419 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: the linebacker meeting room. Because offensively, you know we're in 420 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: a team meeting. You know we may we may watch 421 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: every play, but then you know it gets broken down 422 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: again in your offensive meeting, and it gets broken out 423 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: of getting your position meeting. So it's gonna be hard 424 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: for my leader at the receiver group to tell me 425 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: I need to do X, Y and Z with my routes. 426 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: When you ain't doing X, Y, Z and your routes, 427 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: that message falls on deaf ears. So the leadership part 428 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,439 Speaker 1: for Jailing is yes, showing up every day, being a 429 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: leader on practice, being a leader in the meetings. But 430 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: when we turn that film on broad when we turn 431 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: that film on baby boy, you've got to be where 432 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be fifty four Every single time. Before 433 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: you can start telling me where I need to be. 434 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: You gotta go ahead, get the spec out of your 435 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: own eye, for you are about the log in mind 436 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: and you see a big enough you need to be 437 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,119 Speaker 1: right now is heading into a commercial break, Kurt.

I just had I had 497 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: a question, and maybe we want to move on or not. 498 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: But just from the first segment, two questions. Really, I mean, 499 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: oh my god, we let you expand on a thought. 500 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: Then you have one question. Now you got two questions. 501 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: You hijacking the whole show. I'm just trying to set 502 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: you guys up to talk more. That's all so one. 503 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: I mean, we all this talk about Earl Thomas. The 504 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: flip side is are you worried about Clinton? Dis I 505 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: mean safety again, seems like it could be an issue. 506 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: And then along with that is Jalen. Well, let's let's 507 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: just start with that. I'll get to the other question later. 508 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: Are you worried at all about safety? Not right now? 509 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm not not yet, not yet, nope, no, no, no, oh, 510 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: that's simple enough. I want to give these players with 511 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: I want to give these players with this this culture 512 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: staff and this culture staff with these players an opportunity 513 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 1: to show with something. Thank you you m all right? 514 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: I guess it's uh. The disadvantage though, is you're not 515 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: going to see something until you're what two three weeks 516 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: into the regular season and that preseason right about? What 517 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: what about Jayleen? Shannon? Scare you? What about Jayleen that 518 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: you have to ask that? Well? My other question about 519 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: Jayleen simply was this he I mean, you still got 520 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: some questions marks a linebacker with the vander Ess. You're 521 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: not sure what is health is going to be, shan 522 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: Lee haven't even practiced yet. And after that, you know, 523 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: you're not sure what you have. You got some some 524 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: good role players and like Thomas, but is Jalen good 525 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: enough talent than he can kind of carry that group 526 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 1: or is that another troublesome spot. The talent of Jalen Smith. 527 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: We've seen flashes of it, right. We saw what he 528 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: was at Notre Dame pre injury. We saw him get 529 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: back post injury, and you see these magnificent, magnificent flashes 530 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: of a guy who can be sideline a sideline He's 531 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: built like someone put them together in the lab, and 532 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: you just want more consistency. It's always for me with 533 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 1: Jalen Smith. Can you be consistent? Can that talent? Can 534 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: that talent and productivity consistently meet and be on a 535 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: high level, Like Nate was saying about the safety play, 536 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: can you be on a high level seventy eight ninety 537 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: percent of the time. Yes, you're gonna make mistakes. This 538 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: is there's no perfect player that's ever played this game. 539 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: But you can't make the critical mistakes in situations consistently. 540 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: And we've seen that from Jaalen too often that in 541 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: moments where we need you to be correct, what we 542 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: need you to make the tackle, what we need you 543 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: to be in good coverage, you come up short and 544 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: then we see flashes of like, oh man, if we 545 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: can get that player right there, like the dude that 546 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: just ran from one hash mark to the sideline and 547 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: covered the receiver. Can we get that. That's the biggest 548 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: thing about Jail. It's the talent. We've seen flashes. But 549 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: in this league, especially being a starter, being a flash 550 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: and the playing pipe player is not something that we 551 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: can you can't depend on it. A coach can't depend 552 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: on it. A defense can't depend on it, the teammates 553 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: can't depend on it. And that's the kind of player 554 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: that keeps coaches up at night when saying, man is 555 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: the hell of a talent, But is he going to 556 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: be where he's supposed to be and do what he's 557 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: supposed to do every single time? That's the biggest thing. 558 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 1: See a guy that can make or break this defense? Yes, no, no, yes. 559 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: And the reason I'm saying no is I don't think 560 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: they'll let him. See he don't have the same and Jesse, 561 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: you can correct me, but I don't think he has 562 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: the same pool that he had last year. Well I 563 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: would say yes, he can hurt this team when you 564 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: missed three and four attackers the game, I don't think. 565 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: I think I think they would take a shot with 566 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: a young guy like Francis Bernard, number forty four, Luke Gifford, 567 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: who's who's who's coming up banging pretty good the last 568 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 1: few practices. By scene, I think they're like, you know what, 569 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: come on, come on, guy, this is your going into 570 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: your second year of starting. Come on, we expect better. 571 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: So but they're gonna have to give everybody three or 572 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: four games being no training camp for its preseason games, 573 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: no hard banging. They haven't had a scrimmage. They've done 574 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: they do they bang a little bit, but they didn't. 575 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 1: They an't. Nobody's smashing nobody. So I think they'll giv 576 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: him opportunity. But I don't think the ropist is loan 577 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: for any guy, you know, and maybe the money dictate 578 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: that it does, but I don't think these she just 579 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 1: want to go through that. So I'm saying And the 580 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: reason I say yes, I was just gonna say, Nate, 581 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: you're you're saying that the leasha is shorter here, that 582 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,959 Speaker 1: this coaching staff, if he has a bad you know, 583 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: two or three games in a row, they wouldn't hesitate 584 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:19,719 Speaker 1: to bencham Yeah, to do something because if you if 585 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: you allow this what message Jery you're seeing, Okay, man, 586 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 1: you are untouchable, go ahead on do your thing. What 587 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: then you ask another guy, No, I don't think it's 588 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: gonna work that way. That's why I'm saying no, That's 589 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And the reason why I say yes 590 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: is because I think this culture staff, when you look 591 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: at Nolan and McCarthy, what they've done in the off 592 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: season has seen the flashes that we've all seen, and 593 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: they're saying, man, we're gonna put a lot on this 594 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 1: guy to produce in his third year, and if he 595 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: does it, then we are required now to do something 596 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: about it. And now you have to put guys in 597 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: who aren't used to being starters. That breaks your defense down. 598 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: And for me, like Jalen, playing at Jaalen's best consistently 599 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: can make this defense one that is unstoppable. Jalen not 600 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: being in there, and I'm having even putting one of 601 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: the guy the guy in the names that Nate just mentioned, 602 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: Guys who aren't used to playing forty fifty snaps a game, 603 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: Guys who aren't used to going up against a Russell Wilson, 604 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: m A A Drew Brees, and they haven't been able 605 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 1: to hear those things happen, and they're now having to 606 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: learn on the run, which again hurts your defense because 607 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: you're getting to a crucial moment and because those players 608 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: haven't been putting those positions before. Those quarterbacks then abuse them, 609 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: those running backs then abusing those Titans don't abuse them 610 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: because they haven't been in it. So I think that's 611 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: why to make a break with Jalen that if he's good. 612 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: If he's good Jalen and on point Jalen and consistent Jalen, 613 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: this defense could be one that's unstoppable. If you have 614 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: to remove him from the field because he's just not 615 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: that guy, and you have to bring in one of 616 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: these guys who and now maybe you go get a 617 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: guy off the off the street to bring him in, 618 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: a veteran guy. I know the guy like in Philadelphia, Nigel. 619 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: He's an available linebacker guy. He's a guy who has 620 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: skins on the wall. But if you have to go 621 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: one of these other backup guys to be your starter, 622 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 1: that that that makes your defense, That puts a hole 623 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: in your defense more than it does anything else. I agree. 624 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: But but they but they're gonna try to use Jalen 625 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 1: in so many different ways to if this cat don't 626 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: be effective, I would be shocked. They're gonna try to 627 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: give him so many opportunities and put him in so 628 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: many positions to win. If he don't. Man, Wow, jes 629 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: don't don't even go there, brother, go there. Man, You're 630 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: you're telling the truth. Now he's telling the truth. But 631 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 1: I'm just saying they're gonna give him ever opportunity and 632 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: put him in so many positions to win. They are 633 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 1: they are I just realized yesterday. And I don't know 634 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: because I guess because it's such a weird year and 635 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,399 Speaker 1: we're kind of in a holding pattern on a lot 636 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: of things, and we're trying to wait see how things 637 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: shake out, and you know, from a you know, just 638 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: a I guess an operational standpoint, You know, Kurt, are 639 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: we going to be in the office next week? Are 640 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: we going to get to do this? And that that 641 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,839 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that the seasons in three weeks fellas 642 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 1: like the season starts in three weeks twenty days. You 643 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: start thinking, Lyell cam Irving, Sehwan Lee haven't practiced yet, 644 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: Tyrant Smith is out, Jordan Lewis might not practice this week. 645 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: You know, doesn't sound like any really significant injuries, but 646 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: a lot of time getting missed in the seasons only 647 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 1: three weeks away. Are you guys worried about prep times 648 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: and having enough time on the field and the new 649 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: coaching staff and everybody messing together? Is that is that 650 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: something to be worried about or is all that going 651 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: to take care of itself and kind of come out 652 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: to the wash. When you start playing football here in 653 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: a few weeks, you know, done, Terrrio Poe is limited, 654 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: Griffin is Everson.

But uh, I mean they they are moving 667 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:55,399 Speaker 1: these guys, Brent Daniels and Jim Meyer and these guys, 668 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 1: they're doing the right things to strength. They're just slowly 669 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: ramping these guys up. It's it's much like college. Our 670 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 1: bodies kind of get older. And Jess can talk about this, 671 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: but it's just like college. You older than me. You 672 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: tell us, Yeah, not what I'm saying. I'm the youngest 673 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: one of the group. MYO, I got rusty, got rusty. 674 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: You look like a young Bob Marley. But anyway, but 675 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, it's like college. You've been some losses. 676 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: I've been to college, Joa. You know it's safe for you. 677 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: But these guys gotta sign a cold turk and get 678 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: out there. So they gotta have a scrimmage or two. 679 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: They gotta bang up a little bit this week. I'm 680 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 1: maybe sunning out to be the last day and all 681 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden, now you take off from that, bro, 682 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: it's gonna be one hundred miles an hour. So they 683 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 1: ramping exactly that two week window. As a player, that 684 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: two weeks, Yeah, there is enough to get ready. The 685 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: thing about this is everybody has to do it. Ain't 686 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: nobody got advantage. It's it's certain teams that's dealing with 687 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 1: the COVID more than others that's being held out. There's 688 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: some guys that are injured. Being that we don't know 689 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: about these season. We're not We don't get these beats 690 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: on our phones and then on our desktops and computers. 691 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,720 Speaker 1: The way we were last year. Hey man, remember Jessica say, hey, fellas, 692 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: guess what just happened? You know, he would break in like, bro, oh, 693 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: we just gotta break this team. This guy ain't practicing 694 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,399 Speaker 1: to day. You know, we don't have that. We don't 695 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 1: have an injury report that you give, Kurt, so we 696 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,800 Speaker 1: don't know what it's truly going on with the rams, 697 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: you know. So I'll say this to your point, Kurt is, 698 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: it's two weeks enough time to get ready for a 699 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: football game? Yeah, player, Yes, okay? Is it enough to 700 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,479 Speaker 1: get a player ready to perform at his highest level 701 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 1: in a football game? No? No, no, no, Now what 702 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: you hope is, here's here's your hope. Your hope is 703 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 1: that I can take this time to get said player 704 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,720 Speaker 1: ready for or the game, and then within that game, 705 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: I have to be able to schematically do things to 706 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:12,240 Speaker 1: protect him, to see what his strimps are right now, 707 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: and then use those and hopefully, whether it's offense or defense, 708 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 1: that I've built up enough of a lead where now 709 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: I can do things that doesn't put us in a 710 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: very compromising, persistent position when you're talking about the fourth quarter, 711 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: because yeah, everybody's hyped up and up juiced up for 712 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 1: the you know, from the start of the game and 713 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: your emotions are on high, but then then reality begins 714 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: to hit and that second to half that to happen 715 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,839 Speaker 1: third quarter. Now your lungs are burning and your legs 716 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: a little bit heavy, and now you start to feel 717 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 1: the effects them not practicing all off season. And so 718 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: that's Can your player be ready to play a game 719 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: in two weeks? Yes, Canny be ready to be at 720 00:39:55,040 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 1: his optimal, top tier self in two weeks, that's a no. 721 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 1: And it's going to take a lot of finagling between 722 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: schematics and uh scoring and whether not on the side 723 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 1: of the ball they're on. If we're up, we're up. 724 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: I can do things in a more conservative way, but 725 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to get to the fourth quarter. Now 726 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: I'm depending on my left tackle to hold up against 727 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 1: you know, Aaron my left guard, whoever to hold up 728 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 1: against Aaron Donald William you know right, you know, I 729 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 1: don't I don't want. I don't want my guys to 730 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: have to be trying to go up against someone who's 731 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 1: at their optimum prime and they're not. It's a three 732 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 1: or five offensive linement may not be at their Prime. 733 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: That's that's w Yeah, that's worried. Something expecting when you 734 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 1: talk about going up against a guy like Aaron Donald 735 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 1: and Brockers and other players on that Rams defense.

Maybe 818 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 1: it's the COVID situation, but you get a lot of teamwork, 819 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 1: a lot of three on threes, a lot of half lines, 820 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: a lot of quarterlines. I mean they do a lot 821 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: of situational stuff. I mean it's way different way in 822 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: the temple. You know, maybe if it's cause it's a 823 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: new coach or whatever. But the tempo is up, but 824 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 1: just a touch, just a not as tempo is a 825 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 1: people are moving faster and faster, you know, Uh, the 826 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 1: in between breaks way to have the challenges and all 827 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: of that. You know, the music us almost none existent. 828 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 1: They want people knowing what to do and here here 829 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:42,960 Speaker 1: and and execute and so practice is nice, man, practice 830 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,959 Speaker 1: practice is nice. Uh. There's some guys out there showing it. Man, 831 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: who's Wilson's showing who? Yeah?

And believe it or not, the guy 834 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: that we've been critical of, Tristan Hill, it's putting a 835 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:08,280 Speaker 1: little pressure up the middle. He had a bad bad Yeah. 836 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: And Gallamore is trying to do his thing. And I'm 837 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: telling you, man, and I know they have a hit. 838 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: But Tyrone Crawford is looking fluid in his work, individual work, 839 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,360 Speaker 1: and I'm talking about when the when the just the 840 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: D line is working together, working on Damon's hidden He's 841 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: looking nice. Alden Smiths is uh he just wow. I mean, 842 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:34,239 Speaker 1: I am. I saw him a couple of times in 843 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 1: the run situations, not in the past situations. He's he's 844 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:42,399 Speaker 1: heavy handed, you know. Uh, he looks good. Uh six 845 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: four six five two eighty. He looks good. Uh done. TERRYO. 846 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: Poe is working back in. Evan Griffin is working back in. 847 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 1: We're not allowed to talk about all the formations, but 848 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: but they got some defensively, they got some things that 849 00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:01,399 Speaker 1: are working. Jalen is running like, uh, like a bat 850 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,879 Speaker 1: out of you know what, bro, He's doing his thing. 851 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 1: He looks good. He stood out to me. He looks 852 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:13,160 Speaker 1: really good in coverage like he looks yeah, really good coverage. Yeah. 853 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:21,760 Speaker 1: And secondary wise, man, they look okay because the receivers 854 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:26,800 Speaker 1: are doing it. The quarterbacks are doing it. The first 855 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 1: team quarterback. I had to look at the second team quarterback. 856 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 1: They're all are doing it. They seem to seem to 857 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 1: have the advantage as of right now. They get a 858 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,920 Speaker 1: few picks here there, they break on the ball pretty good. 859 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,800 Speaker 1: But the offense is basically to me, it's been winning 860 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 1: and so I think it's a backs look okay, it's 861 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 1: gonna actually uh take I think games for us to 862 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: see how good they have been. Because Amari Cooper, you 863 00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:02,240 Speaker 1: know nice uh that young kids the first round pick, 864 00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,960 Speaker 1: lamb ceedee, lamb. Man, he is smoothed. You know when 865 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: I heard people say, oh, man, he looked at party, 866 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: looked the role. He does a gallop, had a drop 867 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 1: or two in the practice. I was there, but he 868 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 1: was all over the field making catches. Noah Brown is 869 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,439 Speaker 1: trying to make it make a bid for this thing. 870 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,880 Speaker 1: And so now what I want to say is this 871 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:30,319 Speaker 1: right here. Your left guard's Connor Williams, and that's your 872 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,240 Speaker 1: left guard. Your center is Lunar and that's your center. 873 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:37,880 Speaker 1: The other guys they get the practice when those guys 874 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,239 Speaker 1: decide they don't want to practice. Other than that, I 875 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 1: don't see no competition. And that's why I was trying 876 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,439 Speaker 1: to tell y'all offer earlier. And the only one that's 877 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: competition is thirty one because he's starting. You know what 878 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Dig Trayman, he's starting, So that's your competition. 879 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb is your third receiver. That that ain't no competition. 880 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,959 Speaker 1: But on but on our offensive line, they are being 881 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:04,640 Speaker 1: smart and by saying we ain't in, ain't no competition, 882 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:08,839 Speaker 1: these guys ain't ready for the NFL. And not if 883 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,399 Speaker 1: the Rams are first opponent, because but Aaron Donald would 884 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 1: do to them rookies, they would ruin them and we 885 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 1: won't have them very long. You know said, hey, yeah, 886 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:24,279 Speaker 1: you've said before that that the defensive line can only 887 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,799 Speaker 1: get better because they're facing such a great offensive line 888 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: in practice all the time. I said, I said the 889 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 1: opposite way the offensive line is getting better because the 890 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:38,360 Speaker 1: defensive line. Yeah, at that particular time when they had McCoy, 891 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:44,880 Speaker 1: Pole Smith Lawrence, Yeah, I thought those dringer guys on 892 00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 1: the offensive line who were trying to get reps that 893 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: I said they would get better because of that, Right, 894 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,360 Speaker 1: that's I assume that's got to work the same with 895 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 1: the receivers right in the cornerbacks, I mean, our our 896 00:50:56,160 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 1: quarterbacks or that's such a seems like you need a 897 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,759 Speaker 1: lot of confidence to play that position. I mean, I'm 898 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,879 Speaker 1: assuming they're not getting their confidence knocked down a peg 899 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: or two here. They're actually getting better from from maybe 900 00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 1: getting burned. And let me say this right twenty seven 901 00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 1: seventeen baby sharpness iron Yeah, that's how you gotta do 902 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 1: it better. This. You gotta be cutting to get some 903 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 1: good stuff right there, man, to get yourself sharp. These 904 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 1: guys are not making the catches that these receivers are 905 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:30,320 Speaker 1: making are nice catches. It ain't in their contested catches, 906 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 1: And so I'm hoping that their mindset and their mental 907 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 1: makeup is okay, okay, Yeah, this dude had to make 908 00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: a great play to get this, you know, And so 909 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 1: they do make their fair share amount of plays, you know, 910 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 1: but you know, as an offense, you always say, what 911 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,359 Speaker 1: do we remember, Yeah, do we remember that bat down? 912 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: Or do we remember that old man? This dude, we 913 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,840 Speaker 1: just caught one between two players. So we always gonna 914 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 1: glorify the offense on that one catch. You can have 915 00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: nineteen great bat downs and all of a sudden, that 916 00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 1: Waine catch for a first down on the one yard 917 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:07,319 Speaker 1: line's the grettest thing in the world. So did everybody's 918 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 1: playing well? The office in line, Uh, they look nice, 919 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 1: They've been practicing well, but but uh they much you 920 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:20,640 Speaker 1: can do against Alden as a backup. Alden crushed the backup. 921 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 1: Demarkus rons crushed the backup. I mean, I'm like, what, 922 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 1: what what do we expect here? If they was handling 923 00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 1: needs to god, we'd be like, oh my god, I deep, 924 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:33,360 Speaker 1: this is in trouble. Right. Did you did you notice 925 00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 1: that the backup quarterback is getting a lot more reps 926 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 1: than in previous years. Did that kind of stand out 927 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: to you? That's one thing that I kind of absolutely 928 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 1: and were getting. Yeah, and end the receiver would be in. 929 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,680 Speaker 1: They're gonna throw the first team thirteen fourteen, They're gonna 930 00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,320 Speaker 1: throw the end of receiver. So anybody can be in 931 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: bend newtie got a lot of work, especially before practice. 932 00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 1: They kid pretty fast, he pretty fat. But I know 933 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 1: whether they ain't what we were about. But he can throw. 934 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 1: It's that. That's the That's the history of Mike McCarthy. 935 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy has been known to develop quarterbacks. So you know, 936 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:13,439 Speaker 1: I can't develop guys if they're standing back, they're holding 937 00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 1: the clipboards. This is my time of development. This is 938 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 1: my time to see what guys know, what they can do, 939 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 1: and how I can kind of get get them ready 940 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:26,000 Speaker 1: in the event that something happens to dak. That is 941 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 1: the That is the history of who Mike McCarthy is 942 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 1: of getting and developing quarterbacks all across the board. He uh, 943 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you they'd be out there before practice. 944 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,799 Speaker 1: The quarterbacks office line deepens line. They were out there 945 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,760 Speaker 1: thirty minutes before. Everybody seemed like working working their craft, 946 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 1: working their craft, and they went through some simulations of 947 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 1: two minutes they was working. Man, the quarterbacks are lining 948 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 1: up at the receivers and they and they calling it. 949 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 1: So you know, I see DA telling to dude, move off, 950 00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:56,680 Speaker 1: move off, Like what the world you know, he had 951 00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: the slide. You know what I'm saying. So I hope 952 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: I ain't getting getting the trouble by saying that. But anyway, 953 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, Jesse, when you go out there, I 954 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: know you use a Twitter freak. Don't do it. Don't 955 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,359 Speaker 1: tweet doing the price run. I'm gonna I'm not gonna 956 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 1: have my privileges were voting, man, because almost yeah, I 957 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 1: almost twitted something Clarien Hill. I was saying, hey, man, 958 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:26,720 Speaker 1: what you twitt I'm like, I'm tweeting my wife. Man, Okay, yeah, 959 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I haven't I haven't 960 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 1: seen enough of Denucci to to have an opinion on it. 961 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: But he throws a good looking ball. Man. I don't 962 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 1: know if it always yes, hepposed to, but I mean 963 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,839 Speaker 1: he's got a that ball looks good when it comes out. Man, 964 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 1: it's it's a good looking tight spiral. So all of 965 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 1: those guys, I mean, yeah, I'm with you, Shannon, all 966 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: of those guys man, Dad, Clayton, Thornson, Uh, Denucci all 967 00:54:56,080 --> 00:55:00,160 Speaker 1: up and the Dalton is throwing some nice balls. And 968 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:06,840 Speaker 1: uh but you know, ain't nobody coming, ain't no multiple coverages. 969 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:13,160 Speaker 1: So we don't see it seems like that fourth wide 970 00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 1: receiver spot, it looks like it's it's down to Cedric 971 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:21,760 Speaker 1: Wilson or no People Brown. Yes, question about Noah Brown. 972 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 1: It seems like, and Jesse, you've been around the league 973 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 1: a lot, or does every team kind of take on 974 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 1: a project and have like a pet cat that they 975 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 1: keep around. It seems like Noah Brown is kind of 976 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 1: that project that we haven't really seen a whole lot. 977 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 1: You know, why do they keep him around? It seems 978 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,759 Speaker 1: like Rico Gathers was that project. It seems like they 979 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: they've always had a guy that that that they you know, 980 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:49,840 Speaker 1: they keep around a little bit longer than the fans 981 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:52,400 Speaker 1: would like to see, or like kind of a head scratcher. 982 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 1: What what causes a team? Are the Cowboys unique in 983 00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 1: that or do all teams have that guy that they 984 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:02,440 Speaker 1: just don't want to give up on and keep him around. 985 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 1: I think all teams have that. And what makes Dallas 986 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:11,479 Speaker 1: a situation, especially now, is it's a guy like Noah 987 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,000 Speaker 1: Brown who you like and you think may have talent, 988 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 1: who can help you out at some point in time, 989 00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 1: is where do we play him? Like you have so 990 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 1: many other guys that you want to get the ball too, 991 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,960 Speaker 1: is that you can't even find space for a Noah Brown. 992 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 1: So the best thing that you try to do is 993 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: you try to keep him on your roster, continue to 994 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: develop him because you're gonna say, at some point in time, 995 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna probably need a guy like this, and we 996 00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:39,400 Speaker 1: know that he has the skill set to compete. Not 997 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,640 Speaker 1: as a starter, but you get reps in a starting 998 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: position and in the event that we may lose somebody 999 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 1: or trade somebody, or something happens to somebody. Now we 1000 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,840 Speaker 1: have guys on our roster where the drop off isn't 1001 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 1: such a large drop off. It's just you know, it's 1002 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a Dropta from Amari, but it ain't gonna 1003 00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:00,319 Speaker 1: be Niagara Fall drop off. It may be a little 1004 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 1: bit of a bop and we can still go out 1005 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:05,799 Speaker 1: there and compete. But that's all across the board. And 1006 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:07,759 Speaker 1: I mean, we look at a guy last year in 1007 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:11,320 Speaker 1: Philadelphia and Greg Ward, who was around hanging around, you know, 1008 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 1: practice squad, got and came in and all of a 1009 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 1: sudden he was there. You know, there's always guys that 1010 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 1: they have on their practice squad and you know, kind 1011 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 1: of tucked away on their roster, just trying to develop them, 1012 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 1: trying to groom them, trying to grow them in the 1013 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,720 Speaker 1: event that they need them or when it's time for 1014 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,960 Speaker 1: them to get out there and play. They're already in 1015 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 1: the system. They already know what to do. Now I 1016 00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 1: can just insert them and we can keep going forward. See. 1017 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 1: But I think, Jesse, the difference is in these coaches 1018 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 1: if they keep those guys. Unlike in the past, we 1019 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 1: would keep a guy like that and we would never 1020 00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:50,240 Speaker 1: see production. But I've known McCarthy to keep quarterbacks and 1021 00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 1: receivers and all would saying. You'd be like, whoa where's 1022 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 1: this guy? Men? And you sit there production DeVante Adams 1023 00:57:56,880 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. That's a guy. Davanta Adams was that guy. 1024 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 1: He was a guy they tucked away and developed and 1025 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:07,240 Speaker 1: developed and developed, and all of a sudden, around you're saying, well, 1026 00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 1: damn vont Adams one of the top ten receivers in 1027 00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 1: the league. Whered he come from? Well? He was a 1028 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 1: guy that and they kept tucked away and he got 1029 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 1: his chance to go out there and Seane, thank you, Jesse, 1030 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:23,440 Speaker 1: You're great. You're great, Jess. Is it just trying to 1031 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,360 Speaker 1: earn my ten dollars, man, I said, is it is 1032 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 1: it too early? I know, I know in training camp, 1033 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 1: if we were all out in California, we would we 1034 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 1: would have a guy or two that we could say, hey, 1035 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 1: don't be surprised if this guy makes the roster. Kind 1036 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:41,080 Speaker 1: of a dark horse candidate to make the roster. I 1037 00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: know you guys are or even though we're not able 1038 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 1: to get out to practice, y'all are still and you 1039 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 1: still have sources, um that we may be surprised that 1040 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 1: we love a dark horse guy. Nate. I mean you, 1041 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 1: if you've been there more than anybody else, what do 1042 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 1: you think about about that? You know? Once, once we 1043 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 1: get on the linebackers, man, I don't know how many 1044 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: they're keeping, you know, but everybody's housing that Francis Bernard. 1045 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,280 Speaker 1: I saw him make a few plays. He's a hustle 1046 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 1: type guy. He's built pretty good. Uh. And once again, uh, 1047 00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,680 Speaker 1: just watching these guys, man, A lot of guys look good, 1048 00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 1: but uh, it's gonna be good what the scouts think. 1049 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 1: The scout's gonna play a major role in trying to say, okay, 1050 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,080 Speaker 1: this is what we see, how do you like this guy? 1051 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: Because they're gonna be able to have, They're gonna have 1052 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,360 Speaker 1: a list of guys that are gonna be coming back 1053 00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:42,200 Speaker 1: further earliest guys get the virus or get injured. This 1054 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:45,960 Speaker 1: list is bigger, the practice squad is bigger. So it's 1055 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,919 Speaker 1: just hard to say. Man, you know what, they really 1056 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:50,520 Speaker 1: don't want to speak in on bubble guys. They say 1057 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 1: the here, they really know what you're speaking on. But 1058 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm but I am gonna say that. Friends.
