My goal is five. 0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:35.600 I want to get to five, and I man, it's tough, right, 0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:37.959 I'm getting into a rhythm. I'm trying to kind of 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.280 get into the season and the schedule. 0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:42.400 And your wife probably doesn't want to let you out 0:01:42.440 --> 0:01:43.839 of bed. I get it for real. 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:45.240 Yeah that's about right. 0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:48.200 It's kind of how it goes now nowadays. But yeah, 0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:50.560 good good times, and we're gonna get back in the gym. 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:52.880 We got our Black Rifle Coffee Company today though, because 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.880 the Cowboys getting ready for their Week two matchup against 0:01:56.880 --> 0:02:00.919 the New York Jets and Isaiah showing off product today, 0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:01.440 we can. 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:03.120 Go that's a sweet can. Like I have one of 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:04.280 those at the house and I don't even want to 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:04.640 open it. 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:07.320 Yeah, I know I've got one too, and it's I think. 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:08.360 Black Rifle of coffee companies. 0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.240 Just send me like a whole pack of it and then, 0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:12.480 like I wouldn't feel as bad about popping one of them. 0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:14.480 Open last time you asked for it, you got these, 0:02:14.560 --> 0:02:16.760 so I'm sure it'll happen just same they listen. 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:19.679 I support, By the way, this is way. 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:21.000 Down the line, but I think we're actually going to 0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:23.720 do some shows remotely from brick and Mortar. 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:24.359 That'd be dope. 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.920 Black Rifles see a couple of them, yeah, around, So 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:30.840 just something to look forward to. We're also looking forward 0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:34.760 to this Jets matchup Cowboys Jets three twenty five kickoff 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:39.120 on CBS this upcoming Sunday. I mean there's a lot 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:42.919 of storylines around this, of course, beginning with Aaron Rodgers 0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:46.320 moving into Zach Wilson the Cowboys in the way that 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:49.560 they beat down the Giants in Week one. But with 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.840 all of that, it's kind of buried the lead of 0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.600 offensive line concern for the Cowboys, and we've had some 0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:59.680 concern throughout, especially depth wise, Nick Harris, you were in 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:03.320 the locker room yesterday. He guys talked to Zach Martin. 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.480 Can we sound the alarm yet? Because he popped up 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:09.919 on the injury report yesterday with a groin injuries? 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:11.120 Is this serious? 0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.160 Not a huge deal? Showed up on the injury report yesterday, 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:18.320 is limited in practice yesterday being Thursday. But we saw 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:20.760 him out there yesterday too, and he looked good. And 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:22.400 we had talked to him in the locker room before 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:24.679 that practice report had come out, But you know, we're 0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:26.799 talking to him about preparing for Wheak two. I mean 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:29.880 it's he's he's preparing for Wheak too, the matchup that 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:31.880 he's gonna have with Quinn Williams. He's ready for that. 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.000 And he was on the fan after the practice report 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:37.800 came out yesterday and they had asked him about it. 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:39.960 He said, they were just taking it easy with me today, 0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:42.560 and you know, I feel good. So no concerns going 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:45.320 into Sunday. Was Zach Martin or Tyrone Smith. But as 0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:48.040 far as Tyler Smith, I'm starting to expect he does 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.240 not play on Sunday. I think Chilmidga gets the gets 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:51.160 the nod once again. 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:56.840 Does that change your your depth perceptive of this offensive line? 0:03:56.920 --> 0:04:00.320 Nope, depth perception I should say so to do there? No, 0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:01.960 not at all, not at all. I mean it is 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:03.600 what it is. I still have the bubble guts about it. 0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:07.320 Yeah, but you know, Chu Mondoga, things happen for a reason, 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:09.320 and you know, fortunate for him he gets opportunity to 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.640 get some more reps against another solid defensive front and 0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:14.640 have another opportunity to prove itself. 0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:15.760 Is there more trust though? 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:17.960 Just based off of the way that Chewbaydoga came in 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.120 there and played last week. Do you feel like are 0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:25.599 the bubbletul or whatever? Yea little just to try and 0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:26.080 ease the. 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:31.840 Bubble guts a bubblybod. It's just you know, sometimes you 0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:33.440 run to you know, you run in there and it's like, oh, 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:35.480 I gotta go, and sometimes you run you're like, do 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:39.240 I have no I feel that's happening. 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:41.120 That's we have a soft drink sponsor. 0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:43.000 Before I shout out something here, I. 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:44.120 Don't a soft drink. 0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:45.920 Yeah, yeah, doctor Pepper. 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.919 Okay, so instead of doctor Pepper bubbly, we got like 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:50.560 a you know, sparkling water bubbly. 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:53.600 Yeah, like sparkling water is still pretty bubbly. 0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:57.279 Yeah, but you sparkling water, guy, I'm really not at okay, 0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:01.120 that's that explains just bubbly is okay? 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:03.600 Well, you know, then then pretend it's something a lot 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:04.880 less bubbly than still bubbly. 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:06.400 It's a it's a flat soda. 0:05:07.000 --> 0:05:10.320 There we go, Yeah, doctor Pepper. It's like, you know 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.040 you left that, Yeah, there you go. 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:13.560 I like that. 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:17.440 Yeah, so I think I think it made me feel better. 0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:19.680 Literal Larry over here, I. 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:23.320 Think it's not a long came poly Bubby guts right now, 0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:24.240 that's not what it is. 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:27.840 That was last week. We get we have to go 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:29.640 right now, Okay, okay, gotta get to go. 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:30.240 Uh. 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.440 I feel a little bit better, I really do. And 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:36.400 this is the first time in quite some time that 0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:38.680 I feel and I'm not gonna say confident. 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:40.720 I'm not confident in the offensive line depth. 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.279 I haven't been, nor will I be unless they go 0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.640 and find some sort of veteran either on the open 0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.719 market or on the trade market at some point this season. 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.120 I don't necessarily think that's happening. But what I do 0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:56.520 see is now a serviceable plug in for for Chuma Doka. 0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:59.560 If you have to go deeper than that, we still 0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:02.240 haven't seen yet. I think TJ. Bass is a big 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:03.479 time player. We've talked about TJ. 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:05.200 Bass on the show. I think we're all very high 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:05.599 on him. 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.360 I think he's a good player, But if you're gonna 0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.240 put him out there, I hope he's the only one 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:10.560 of the. 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:11.880 Five that's having to be plugged. 0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:13.799 And kind of like what we saw against the Giants, 0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:17.359 it wasn't like they had Chumadoga and TJ. Bass on 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.440 the field at the same time. As long as you've 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:21.120 got four of the five, I think you can now 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.440 plug the gaps. But it's whenever you're missing the second 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.120 you're missing another guy up front, like when we had 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:29.359 the scare last week with Tyron Smith, when Zach Martin 0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:31.880 popped up on the injury report and we hadn't necessarily 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:35.359 heard anything to that point. If you're missing guys like that, 0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:37.599 that's when I start to get worried. When you're pushing 0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:40.400 two pieces into the fold as a posed to just 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:40.719 the one. 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.039 Yeah, I will say late in the game, granted it 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:45.640 was thirty three forty nothing by this point. Whenever the 0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:48.000 second team had come in come into the game on 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:51.400 Sunday night, still going against most of the Giants ones. 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.440 On defense, it was awesome Richards at left tackle, Chumah 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:58.719 was still getting work at left guard, brock Hoffman at center, 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:02.440 TJ Bass at right guard, and it's my mind's escaping 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:02.880 me on who. 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:03.320 Was at right tackle. 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:04.880 It may have still been tern Steel because think that's 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:06.359 all the offensive lineman they had on the roster at 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:09.200 that point. But they looked good. I mean they were fine, 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.360 you know that they held their own and looking at 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:13.320 the grades from just those couple of drives, like, those 0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:15.200 guys did good. But you know, how much does it 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.880 really matter in at thirty three or forty nothing victory, 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:20.600 But you know, at the more we see these guys, 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:25.600 especially Cheu Maliydoga, the very slowly I'm talking minuscule levels, 0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:27.920 I start to gain confidence a little bit, and you know, 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.280 if somebody goes down. So I mean, we were talking 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:32.840 about it was Zach Martin yesterday specifically about the depth, 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:34.400 and he mentioned a guy like TJ. 0:07:34.520 --> 0:07:34.840 Bass. 0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:36.600 He's been getting work not only at right guard, but 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:38.280 they've been getting him work at center. They've been getting 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.160 him work at left guard, like they want him to 0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:43.000 be an option for that depth down the line if 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.080 they do have to tap into it, you know, outside 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:47.600 from Cheum mail Yedoga. You know, I think once we 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.040 get to week twelve, week thirteen, granted, if injuries can 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:52.320 can stay off the board, then that depth I think 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:53.760 it's going to be reliable Eventually. 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:58.520 If you were to put your confidence level in Tyrone 0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:02.200 Smith play or excuse me, Tight Smith playing this Sunday, 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:05.880 what would that be he won the ten one being 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:08.679 he's not playing ten three, he's going three. 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:12.200 Probably the only reason it's yeah, honestly, the only reason 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:14.400 it's not higher than zero is because you know he's 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:16.640 he's still being listed on the practice reports and stuff, 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:17.240 so you know. 0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:19.080 He's not going on ile. Yeah. 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:21.760 No, no, no, no, no, yeah. I don't believe so either. 0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:25.880 But Mike McCarthy's been talking about Donovan Wilson and Tyler Smith. 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:28.200 They've been comparing them both this week, and he's like, 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.720 Donovan's much further along than Tyler. And we know how 0:08:30.800 --> 0:08:32.480 long it's taken Donovan to kind of get back to 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:34.600 the practice field, and he just got back in a 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:36.680 limited fashion yesterday. He was in pats for the first 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:37.680 time all season yesterday. 0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:39.600 What's yourn that Wilson goes this week? 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.079 That one's a little bit more tough. I think, yeah, 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:44.200 that one's a little bit more tough with zero because 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.640 with Jordan, you think about what Jordan, think about what 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:49.080 Jordan lewis. He's been ready, but they've been ramping him 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:50.440 up and he was he had a full he was 0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:52.679 a full participant last week and they've had to ramp 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.120 him up. They didn't want throw him, kept him, and 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:58.880 they still kept him inactive. So I struggled to think 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:00.120 that they rushed Donovan too the field. 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:02.520 What's your confidence level on Jordan Lewis playing this week? 0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:05.040 Oh my goodness, spot. 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:06.559 You said zero all the way across the board. 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:10.040 Across the board, Kyle. Why because it's not a necessity. 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:13.040 It's not a necessity. So if you have time on 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:15.920 your side, then you take the side of cautious. 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:17.920 Why do you have time on your side here? Why 0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:18.240 is it. 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:20.000 Because you have you have dudes that are out there 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.280 playing in those same positions you're talking about. 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:24.719 Well, Thomas, those guys. 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.880 Yeah, playing well, playing well. So it's like, you don't 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:28.480 have to force your guy into the field, then don't. 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.320 Let's make sure, let's hundred percent make sure that they're good. 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.199 Not to say that they doesn't, because everybody on that 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:34.560 side of the building is amazing. 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:35.080 In those room. 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:37.080 Again, we're talking about Britt Brown, talking about Jim all 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:38.480 those guys. Okay, get it. 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:40.360 But if you don't have to force them out there, 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:42.680 then have if you even. 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:47.760 Have a a slightest hair of doubt that in their 0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:51.680 capabilities and something that you've seen in practice, then let's 0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:53.360 get rid of that, to get rid of that grid, 0:09:53.360 --> 0:09:54.680 of that bubble guts, to make sure that you have 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:55.680 that full bot of confidence. 0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:57.679 And then when you have that, then put them in 0:09:57.720 --> 0:09:57.959 the game. 0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.760 When they are able to bring Jordan Lewis back, What's 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:01.480 what do they do? 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:02.440 What do they do? 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.560 That's kind of where I'm headed, because you know the 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:09.240 roles of Tyler Smith left guard, he's your starting left guard. 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:10.040 That's where you're going. 0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:13.160 Donovan Wilson, you know the role there too, starting safety. 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:15.600 He's gonna rotate in. He'll be your enforcer. Why are 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:16.760 you trying to sneak in my shot? 0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:19.080 Uh? 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:21.760 You know, you know the role for both of those guys. 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:23.760 But what is the role for Jordan? 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.600 Is he gonna play He's still gonna play at the nickelback, 0:10:26.600 --> 0:10:29.680 He's still gonna play in the slot. But you rotate 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.000 him in with the Ron Bland? Does he come down? 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:34.600 Does he play like a spy role? There's there's times, 0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:37.600 especially whenever you get into some of these upcoming matchups, 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.840 when you have mobile quarterbacks, these these guys like let's 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:43.040 say an Alvin Kamara, whenever the Saints come up at 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.320 some point, I mean, are the Saints on the schedule 0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:47.240 this They're not. 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:48.040 On the schedule this year. 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:50.280 I'll have to find a different representation for this, for 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:51.599 this tailback comparison. 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:54.240 But you you go and you use him. 0:10:53.920 --> 0:10:56.760 To feel out and to cover these guys out of 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:57.439 the backfield. 0:10:57.760 --> 0:10:58.839 You will see that early. 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:02.319 No, you're rotating them in on Nickel packages with dB 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.480 and then whenever dimes in, then he's a starter in 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.120 Dime and. 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:11.120 Then Dern Bland that are just going to split those reps. Yeah, 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:13.480 it's tough. It's tough when you have really good dv's, 0:11:13.520 --> 0:11:15.040 it's a great problem to have, but it's still a 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:17.440 problem at the end of the day. After Deron's emergence 0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:19.440 last year, after Jordan went down, and he even had 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:21.719 a really good week one. So that's that's going to 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:24.120 be a tough tough thing to sort out in my opinion. 0:11:24.200 --> 0:11:26.280 Okay, I said the Saints, but what about San Francisco 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:29.680 Christian McCaffrey threat both running the ball and throwing in 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:33.000 chargers Austin Eckler the week after that. I mean, they've 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.760 got some guys coming up that are very dangerous two 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:37.360 way threats. 0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:38.280 And Brice Hall at. 0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.160 Running back, Briscee Hall, he can catch it out of 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:41.240 the backfield. 0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:42.160 Yeah. 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:45.800 Would he be utilized in a package like that this week? 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:51.000 Because I think defensively Dallas Dallas will want to stay 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.120 heavy because New York is trying to run the ball. 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:54.960 Are you talking about breeseall or Jordan Lewis talking about 0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:56.400 Jordan Lewis being used. 0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:57.880 Utilized in the packages this week? 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:01.160 After? Yes? Could he be you utilized in that regard 0:12:01.240 --> 0:12:03.439 to where it is a semi necessity if. 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.520 He's playing, Yes, for sure, because that's that's gonna be. 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:10.080 Do you play him because of that necessity? I feel 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:11.800 confident in the guys to fill that role now. 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.520 No, I mean, we saw what this defense did last week. 0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:15.360 I don't think there's any necessity that they need to 0:12:15.360 --> 0:12:18.440 bring onto the field that they didn't already have. I 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:22.800 think any added bonus with Donovan Wilson and Jordan Lewis, 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:25.880 it's not only having that experience, but it's having that consistency, 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:28.760 and you know, eventually consistency with some of these young guys, 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:30.600 it's going to falter a little bit. I mean, I 0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:32.520 love Marque Spell and one Ye Thomas, but there's a 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.559 reason Donovan Wilson has been that starting spot there's a 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.760 reason Jordan Lewis has been able to get the reps 0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:40.240 that he's gotten in his years here, so just bringing 0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:41.960 him on to the field, it's more of a reliable option. 0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:44.520 Who's been more impressive out of those two guys? 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.880 I feel like we love both one. Yea Thomas and 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:50.640 Marquise Belt together quite a bit, and partially because they 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:53.600 were both undrafted free agents, both because they they came 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.400 in during this the twenty twenty two draft class, and 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.840 they've been around for a season now, and they're both 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.040 really tad This dan Quinn guys. These these guys that 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.440 are fitting the mold for dan Quinn for the most part. 0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:08.760 But who's been more impressive, Let's say, from the jump 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.040 from the start of training camp to this point, who's 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:13.120 turned your head the most? 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:16.320 Why? Because he's a dude. 0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:20.120 But he's like, I feel bad, you know what, Isaiah, 0:13:20.120 --> 0:13:23.040 I feel bad for people listening to this show that 0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:25.880 have the loud, booming voices all the way through. 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:29.680 And then Isaiah's like, I give dynamic range, Kyle. That's 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.440 how I can refer to what you're gonna do is 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:32.880 blow out car speakers. 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:33.800 That's what's gonna happen. 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.600 In safety. I'm not a white guy. And then you 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:38.120 come in you whisper. 0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.320 Like that you'll ever done ASMR with three fourty. 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:42.840 My daughter loves it. 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:46.520 Drives me crazy, all right, So why Monday is a segment? 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:46.840 Now? 0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:49.960 From the get go, I was asking in camp, who 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:53.120 the heck is that dude? And you know, I was like, 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.920 number thirty's flying around like he's crazy, and had an 0:13:55.920 --> 0:13:58.160 opportunity to watch him every single day and his his 0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:01.679 approach to practice. Hey, he was hustling all over the place. 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:04.520 He was running full speed, he was making plays, he 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:06.720 was playing down in the box, he was playing back, 0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:09.240 he was going sideline the sideline, and he said okay, 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:10.679 And then I had an opportunity to talk to Bones. 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:12.800 Bones mentioned both of those names as being some of 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:14.719 his core guys for special teams this year, and I 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:16.080 was like, okay, let me keep a eye on them. 0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:16.839 And then what happens. 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:18.920 We're in the booth, we're calling the preseason game and Boop, 0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:20.640 give me that interception, thank you very much. 0:14:20.680 --> 0:14:22.600 First play the game, we'll take that to our laws. 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:23.640 Worked out pretty well. 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:25.960 And then we get to the regular season, and what happens, 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.920 Poop block the field, go Okay, this dude is showing 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.520 up any position that you put him in, any situation, 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:33.960 he wants to make sure that you were saying his name. 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:37.320 And that's not to say anything against Marquis Belka. He's 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.360 been doing his things been asked of him as well. 0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:42.160 But I just think Wanya has showed up in a 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:45.880 greater sense in terms of the big splash plays. Now 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:49.160 that doesn't always overthrow what we're doing in terms of 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.760 your every day check the box, do your job, but 0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:54.280 I think that one ye Thomas has been very dynamic 0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:56.360 and been a Swiss Army knife for these guys on 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:57.680 special teams and on defense. 0:14:57.800 --> 0:14:59.280 Yeah, I don't think there's a wrong answer here. I'll 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:01.400 go ahead and give the case for marquaset Bell. Whenever 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:04.280 De marve On overshown went down, that linebacker depth got 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:07.400 highlighted real quick in the vise. That very next Monday, 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:10.840 everyone was talking about all right veteran linebackers, and Marquise 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:12.720 Bell took on the challenge of jumping into the second 0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:14.240 level and has done a really good job with that. 0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:16.440 I mean, he looked so natural in the second level 0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:18.360 on Sunday. It looked like he's been playing there his 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:22.720 whole career and relatively new especially to this to the system. 0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:25.120 And I had an opportunity to ask dan Quinn earlier 0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:27.120 in the week, is that something that he came here with, 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.600 those those second level instincts or is that something that's 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:32.560 just kind of develop over time? And he said he 0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:34.480 showed a lot of that at FAM you and he 0:15:34.560 --> 0:15:36.320 wanted to, you know, tap into that if they ever 0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:38.400 had to. And sure enough, here we are. And man, 0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:41.360 dan Quinn loves using those safety linebacker hybrids, and we're 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:43.440 seeing it more and more in the college game too. 0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:45.680 They play them in that, and they also call it 0:15:45.720 --> 0:15:48.800 a star role there in the college game. And May 0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:51.000 we're seeing that more and more and more with guys 0:15:51.040 --> 0:15:53.560 who were just athletic enough to you know, still cover 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:55.240 that third level, but guys that can step into the 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:57.640 second level and lay a hit two. So it's great 0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:59.320 to see Marquise Bell kind of fitting into that. 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:02.200 One thing I like about both of those guys is that. 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.040 And Isaiah talked to a little bit about Yanye Thomas. 0:16:05.080 --> 0:16:07.280 He's made the splash plays, he's made the big plays, 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.720 but it's also the way he's carried himself through this 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:14.120 entire process. He's had the right mentality. Speaking to the 0:16:14.640 --> 0:16:17.000 defensive coaching staff and some of the guys that have 0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:19.960 been close with wan Ye, they're impressed about what he's 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:22.239 done in the film study, what he's done in the classroom, 0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:25.360 what he did picking up the playbook, and then translating 0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:27.520
