Saquon Barkley at four. No, and it does 63 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: sound like they're gonna deal done, so good for Barkley. 64 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: Titans Derek Henry at five, see him twice. Coach Jonathan 65 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 2: Taylor will see him twice. Saints Alvin Kamara at seven, 66 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 2: we'll see him. Dalvin Cook. 67 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: We have no idea. 68 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 2: We don't know where Dalvin Cook's gonna go. Could be 69 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: the Jets. If we do, we'll see him. Could be 70 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: the Dolphins. It is and we won't see him. Cowboys 71 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 2: Tony Pollard at nine and Chargers Austin Eckler at ten. 72 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: Honorable mentions Aaron Jones, Packers, Brisault, Jets, Traves, etn Jaguars, 73 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: Romadris Stevens and Patriots, Seahawks, Ken Walker and Damian Pierce 74 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: of the Texans gets an honorable mentioned naming in there. 75 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: All four AFC South running backs mentioned in those top 76 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 2: sixteen mark. This is running back you as you called it. 77 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: It is running back you. 78 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 3: This division is the running back division and I like 79 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: that about it. 80 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: It makes it interesting. 81 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 3: And we'll see if this division can become the quarterback 82 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: division in the future with new quarterbacks coming in. 83 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: Maybe it does that, maybe it doesn't. I don't know. 84 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: Was Miles Sanders on that list that I miss him? 85 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: Miles Sanders was not well, why not put him on 86 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 3: the list? I don't get it. Miles Sanders now with 87 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 3: the Carolina Panthers. 88 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: He was fifth in the league in rushing last year. 89 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 2: I think probably because he changed teams and I'm totally sure. 90 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 2: So this was done by executives, players, coaches, and scouts. 91 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: So you know, maybe a thought that Miles Sanders what 92 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: was exactly the straw sturn a drink in Philly. 93 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. 94 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 2: I'd think in Carolina. I think in Carolina's gonna be 95 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 2: a good fit. I think it's gonna be a good 96 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: fit in Carolina. Think they'll use him in a passing 97 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 2: game a little bit more and that's gonna be that'll 98 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: help out Bryce Young. 99 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 1: So yeah, good one. 100 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: I said my beef quote unquote, I love Austin Eckler, 101 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: So I'll say that and make that qualifying statement right 102 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 2: up front. I love Austin Eckler. He's everything you want 103 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 2: NFL player. Undrafted free agent Rose Up got playing time, 104 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 2: made the most of it. Thought he might go somewhere 105 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 2: else this offseason, wasn't too happy with his contract, but 106 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: he ended up going back to the Chargers. All six 107 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: of those honorable mentions Aaron Jones, Damian Pierce, Bresaw, Traves 108 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 2: Etnmander Stevens, and Keth Walker. I would I would consider 109 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: before Austin Eckler, and I love Eckler, but I think 110 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: that group honerable mention is really really good with a 111 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 2: couple of second year, three second year guys in Pierce 112 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 2: Hall and Walker that were drafted in twenty twenty two. 113 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Derek Henry had a down year with fifteen 114 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: hundred yards plus. 115 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: Geez, down year. Yeah, what a down year for him? 116 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: My gosh, how many terrible know this? 117 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: How many fifteen hundred plus seasons have Texans running backs 118 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: had Arian had wanted twenty ten. 119 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 3: That's gotta be it. That's the only one that's got 120 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: to be it. There's no question. Wow, I mean, come on, 121 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 3: that's a ridiculous amount of yards, right, yeah, it is, 122 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 3: you know, and back in the days of sixteen, you're 123 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: averaging almost one hundred per game. Arian's the only guy 124 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: to be able to do that here. You know, Lamar 125 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 3: had nice years. Carlos Hyde had that nice thousand yard 126 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 3: season in twenty nineteen. He had Dominic Davis Williams back 127 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 3: in the day with his three nearly or just over. 128 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: One thousand yard seasons. But that was it. 129 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 3: And we were talking about this last week, Johnny or 130 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 3: the week before, about people in the building and not 131 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 3: knowing who certain players are. You know, people in business operations. 132 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 4: I was talking. 133 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: I get who I was. 134 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 3: Talking to about Dominic Davis and how good he was 135 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 3: and how he is an underrated player in this franchise's history. 136 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 3: Love to have a guy like that back, but I 137 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 3: think you kind of have that with Devin Singletary and 138 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: Damian Pierce in the one two punch Whoever's won. 139 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: Who is ever two? 140 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: And I think different games are going to see different 141 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 3: guys lead this team in rushing, but Pierce, for the 142 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: most part, will more often than not he's going to 143 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 3: be her bell cow, and Singletary could fill in. But 144 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 3: the thing is this, Piers could really be productive, and Singletary. 145 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: Could have a game or two where he just explodes. 146 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 3: He has a sixty yard run or whatever, and it 147 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: eclipses the peers total for that afternoon. Who cares as 148 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 3: long as you get the job done. So that running 149 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 3: backs list interesting. I think the Miles Sanders thing it 150 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: doesn't really apply to anything we talk about this year, 151 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 3: but that is not easy to replace that kind of 152 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: production for Philadelphia. I know the back is going to 153 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 3: benefit from the elusiveness, or the better word, the just 154 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 3: the attention that the defense has to pay to jail 155 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 3: and Hurts and what he's going to do with the football. 156 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 3: But twelve hundred plus yards is nothing to sneeze at 157 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: top five in the league. Good luck replacing that, Philadelphia. 158 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they'll they'll find a way. It's Philadelphia. I mean, 159 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 2: they started with Jalen Hurts and they went and got 160 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: Rashod Penny. That was one of the pieces we were 161 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 2: talking I was talking about that with McLain. Maybe you 162 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 2: and I were talking about this a little bit last 163 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: night the play callers, And it was interesting listen to 164 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel because he said one of the wrinkles that 165 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 2: they put into their offense. They were talking about it. 166 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: He just goes, Rashod Penny. I'm like, what does you 167 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: shot Penny have to do with this? And he said 168 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 2: they were studying running backs. I guess when he was 169 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: with San Francisco. Yeah, and they were studying Rashot Penny, 170 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 2: and San Diego State apparently was using Rashod Penny on 171 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 2: this particular play scheme. And as McDaniel is watching for 172 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 2: Penny and studying Penny to see what kind of prospect 173 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: he is, he sees them run this play. He likes it. 174 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: He then adds that to their offense and they've been running. 175 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 2: They've been running ever since and it's been a huge 176 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: play for that. So whenever hear Rashot Penny, now I'm 177 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna think about that. But Rashot Penny added 178 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 2: to the mix in. 179 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 3: Philadelphia and DeAndre Swift and DeAndre Swift, so that's gonna 180 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 3: be big. 181 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: So there it has to be. 182 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: Saying that they I don't want to say that they've 183 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 2: they're on the glow up, but I think they kind 184 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: of are with those two guys. 185 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: With Jalen Hurts, I could that could be nasty. 186 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 2: I want to see teams use two running backs like 187 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 2: I want to see the Texans. I want to see 188 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: Bobby Slowick use Singletary and Pierced together. You can't do 189 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: it one hundred percent of the time, Beau, then it 190 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 2: defeats the purpose of having two running backs. 191 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: You know, you want to keep one of them fresh 192 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: all times. 193 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 2: But I do want to see a situation and see 194 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: situations when you use both of them at the same time, 195 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 2: and you can, and I think you can. I think 196 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 2: there are ways you can do it, and so I 197 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 2: want to see that as kind of a wrinkle you 198 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 2: know a little seasoning built into. 199 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: The take it off the field is the question? Because 200 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: I take a receiver off. 201 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess you could, because and I heard the 202 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: guys in the afternoon, I don't know one of the 203 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 3: shows on six ' ten talking about Tank Dell and 204 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 3: will he be on the field all the time? Is 205 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 3: he on the field some of the time? Is how 206 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 3: often is tak Deele on the field? And I think 207 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 3: it's a good question. We don't know the answers to 208 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 3: these things yet. I think they're going to do a 209 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 3: lot of substituting. The forty nine ers do that. They're 210 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: going to do a lot of mixing and matching and 211 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 3: depending on what they're facing. Defensively, they want to be 212 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: able to run the ball consistently. They want to be 213 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: able to short pass it and get some yack. But 214 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 3: back to Philly here for a moment, because I can't 215 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 3: get off this thing, this Miles Sanders thing. Not that 216 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 3: he's the greatest back ever, but you add Swift, you 217 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: add Penny. Neither of those guys has had the huge 218 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 3: kind of campaign that Sanders had last year. Maybe they 219 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 3: can't get it done by committee. They have jail and 220 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 3: hurt it's good for them, But your offensive fortiator left 221 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: the building. I know you got a good one there 222 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 3: right now, projected to be one, but Stichen is gone 223 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 3: and gone to the Indianapolis Colts, and I'm more concerned 224 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: about what he's going to do right now with Anthony 225 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 3: Richardson or whoever they trot out their quarterback. 226 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: It's going to be Richardson because the owner insists on it. 227 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: Well, I'm glad you brought up Shane Stikeen because his 228 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 2: offense coordinator is Jim Bob Cooter. One of the great 229 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: names to say in the NFL. It's the other list 230 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 2: I want to bring up with you. I saw this 231 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: from PFF and I like, oh boy, I kind of 232 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: had one of those moments, like okay, ranking top ten 233 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 2: offensive coordinators in the NFL. Now, just as a spoiler, 234 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: Bobby Slowick not included. I guess it's understood. 235 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: Give it a year. Well, he's got no body of work, right. 236 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 2: One of the things about offensive coordinators in the NFL 237 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 2: this year, Yeah, and this is why, well two things. 238 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: One over half the league changed offensive coordinators because you 239 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 2: had new head coaches, they brought in new offensive coordinators, 240 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: and I think you had six or seven of those, 241 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 2: But then you had other places like New England. Bill 242 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 2: Belichick went out and got Bill O'Brien to bring him 243 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 2: back to be the offensive coordinator. So you also had 244 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: coaches that were staying that needed to go get a 245 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 2: new offensive coordinator. You know, San Francisco, Kyle Shanahan calls 246 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 2: the player, but obviously Bobby was what's closest to him, 247 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 2: so he's got to get an offense corder. So there's 248 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 2: sixteen or seventeen new offensive coordinators in the league this year, 249 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: so and some of them were offensive cords. Like Kellen 250 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 2: Moore was office cordinator with the Cowboys, he goes to 251 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 2: be the offense coordinator with the Chargers. Sam Anson form PFF. 252 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: I respect Sam. I think I think he knows the game. 253 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 2: So seeing this list is a little bit of like, 254 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 2: I'd like to know his rationale. 255 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: So just getting a raw look. 256 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 2: At the ten names that he mentioned is sort of 257 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: striking because I look at this and go, are you 258 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 2: sure about that? Yeah, So we'll start number one, Ben 259 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 2: Johnson Lions. I am sure about that. I think Ben 260 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: is tremendous. I think Bend is he the great job. 261 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 3: Best offensive coordinator in the league right now. 262 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: Now, that's at least breaking in a new guy sort. 263 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 2: Of, right, Brian Johnson will be the offense coordinator for 264 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: the Eagles, so I think so when it comes to 265 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 2: just offense coordinator, who's also a play caller. And that's 266 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: the other thing too, his offense coordinators may not be 267 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 2: the play callers and vice versa. There might be some 268 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 2: guys that are both offense coordinator and a play car 269 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 2: like Bobby will be the offensive coordinator here and to 270 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: play caller. 271 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: But in uh in era No. 272 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 2: Eight where stiken go oh, Shane Stikeen is with Indianapolis, 273 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: now he might be the play caller. 274 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: He might not. We don't know for sure, but we're 275 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: gonna get to. 276 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 2: Them a little bit. It's a little surprising. Number two 277 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: is Kellen Moore the Chargers. He's got years of being 278 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 2: the offense coordinator with Dallas. Mike McCarthy apparently wanted to 279 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 2: get back to running the ball this year, which okay, 280 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: teach his own, so he jettisoned his young ofvits coordinator. 281 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: Chargers pounced. Kellen Moore now the Chargers and Justin Herbert. 282 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 2: I think that could be a tremendous marriage. Sure, I 283 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: think that's gonna be a good one. I can't believe 284 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: the Cowboys. Let more leave. 285 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm with you. 286 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:07,479 Speaker 2: Number three top ten offensive coordinators per Sam monson the PFFF. 287 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 2: Buckle up, Mark, Bill O'Brien, New England Patriots. 288 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 3: See, I knew this was coming, so I'm ready for it, Johnny, 289 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: all right, So O'Brien here, Now, he was and he 290 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 3: wasn't the offensive coordinator, but he was the offensive coordinator. 291 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: Let's just be honest here. 292 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 3: I don't care if it was George Godsea or Tim Keller, whoever. 293 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 3: Bill O'Brien was the offensive coordinator. Yes, and I think 294 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 3: Bill's a really good coach. We won't get into the 295 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 3: general managerial stuff. We don't need to get into that. 296 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 3: The late in his time here, transactions, I don't want 297 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 3: to get into all that. 298 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: Let's just talk about production. 299 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 3: He won a lot of games, and he won more 300 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 3: than he lost, which sounds ridiculously simplistic, but you know 301 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 3: how I feel about that. 302 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: You win more than you lose in this league. 303 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 3: You're doing a good job, and I'm always grateful to 304 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 3: Bill for the wins. I'll argue this and it's statistically 305 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 3: true that his defense is here were way better than 306 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 3: the offenses. I mean, it's just true. It's in the 307 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 3: numbers there. Year one, the offense is fourteenth. That's the 308 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 3: same ranking they had in twenty nineteen with Watson when 309 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 3: they won the AFC South that eventually were up twenty 310 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 3: four to O think on the Chiefs fourteenth in the 311 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: league with ranking in points per game Fitzy Mallet and 312 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 3: Keenum at the end in twenty fourteen. So that was 313 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 3: actually a hell of a coaching job then. But that 314 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 3: year they got all those takeaways right, and then the 315 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 3: defense has started to get a lot better. Third and 316 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 3: twenty fifteen, first in twenty sixteen and then seventeen was 317 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 3: a throwaway. Year eighteen the defense starts to slide a bit, 318 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 3: but they have a full year with Watson and they 319 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 3: win the division. My point is this, the offense never 320 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 3: got higher than eleventh with Bill here in Houston. Now, 321 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 3: you can go back to the New England days and 322 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 3: talk about that, but you have the greatest quarterback that 323 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 3: have prolayed the game. 324 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: You have Wes Welker. You have a lot of weapons. 325 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: I don't want to take away from him. But he 326 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: doesn't have that now. He doesn't. 327 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 3: He's not working with that cast of characters now, not 328 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 3: even anything close to that. So this is all spec 329 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 3: that they give Bill O'Brien the third highest ranking of 330 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 3: OC's in the league. 331 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: I would still rank him pretty high. 332 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 2: Johnny, Oh yeah, I'm gonna read you, but I don't 333 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: know about three, right, I'm gonna read you some names. 334 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: I think he would sit here and say I don't 335 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: deserve to be third. 336 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 2: I gotta do it for I think you're right. Number 337 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 2: four Shane Walder of Seattle. I agree with Alvin ole Hearty. 338 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 2: He took mcvey's offense, tweaked it, help make Geno Smith. 339 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 1: He turned Geno Smith into a probole ridiculously good job. 340 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean that that he did a tremendous job. 341 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 3: That's probably the biggest upset of the year. And then 342 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 3: Detroit doing it with Russell Wilson. 343 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: There was talk about Russell, you know, Russell Wilson Leve, 344 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 2: Oh my god, what are they gonna do? You know, 345 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: Shane Waldron took that job thinking Russell would be the. 346 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 3: Guy, and they have the same kind of season that 347 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 3: you would expect with a good Russell Wilson absolutely. 348 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: Number four, Shane Walder, Number five, Ken Dorsey Bills. 349 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 3: I'm glad they put him up there because he's take 350 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 3: it a lot of heat. 351 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: Because oh, you have Josh Allen, you should be good. 352 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 3: But it's interesting because Singletary. We have him here eight 353 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 3: hundred plus yards leading them rusher on the Bills last year. 354 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 3: Let's see how they do this year with Cook. But 355 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 3: Kenny's got a tough job ahead of him here. You know, 356 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 3: they have to keep it going. They got the unhappy receiver. 357 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 3: I hope he gets happy for their sake. But I'm 358 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 3: glad that Kenny's up there. 359 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, Kenny's up there. Here's where it gets interesting to me, 360 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 2: all right. In fact, the next three to the next 361 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 2: four very interesting. 362 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: Number six Eric b Enemy Washington. 363 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 3: See this is is it with Washington or are we 364 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 3: ranking him based on what he did? 365 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: He with a question mark did that's a chief. 366 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 2: That's kind of my point here is with all the 367 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 2: new that's happening, I get that you can't just take 368 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: everybody that's off it's coordinator and put just those guys 369 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 2: because you would only have a pick of like one 370 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 2: through sixteen. So you do have to add some new 371 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 2: guys in here, but how much and we'll find out 372 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 2: very soon how much of what was happening in Kansas 373 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 2: City was by virtue of Eric the Enemy. I found 374 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 2: one thing very interesting on this quarterback show. I'm almost 375 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 2: four episodes in. Yeah, they have not shown Patrick Mahomes 376 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 2: talking to Eric Enemy at any point. When they show 377 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 2: him on the sidelines, they show him talking to Andy Reid, 378 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 2: and they show him talking to Matt Naggy who is 379 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 2: coming up at number eight. Ok, and we've seen Matt 380 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 2: with offense, but you know, the Bears offenses weren't that 381 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: good when Naggy got away from the luxury. I guess 382 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 2: if you will, that that was you know, well, Patrick 383 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 2: Mahomes wasn't there. But point being, Matt wasn't there for 384 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 2: that the Enemy and Naggie six and eight when at 385 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 2: Washington and then Naggie takes over the offense coordinator for 386 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 2: Kansas City. But do you really know how good Matt 387 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 2: Naggy is due to his connection with Andy Reid and 388 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 2: how much and he does in the offense can make 389 00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 2: you can make the you could make the claim that 390 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahome is the best offensive. 391 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 1: Coordinator there in that position. 392 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 3: Naggy's high water mark in Chicago ninth and twenty eighteen 393 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 3: with Trubisky throwing the rock and Alan Robinson, they did 394 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 3: some things. 395 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: Yep. 396 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 3: Okay, they lost in the wild card round. He made 397 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 3: the playoffs twice with the Bears, but it was up 398 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 3: and down to say the least. 399 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 2: Okay, here's number seven. Yeah, Todd Munkin Baltimore Ravens. Do 400 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 2: you know where Todd Munkin was last year? 401 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: Georgia were Georgia. 402 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 4: Yeah. 403 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: Now he's taken. 404 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 2: Over a completely different, offensively built team. At Georgia, they 405 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 2: had the big backs, they had a big offensive line, 406 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 2: and Stetson did some really good things at quarterback. And 407 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: I think Munkin made Stetson better. Don't get me wrong. 408 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 2: I think Todd Munkey was one of the best kylleg 409 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 2: Joe sees. And I do think that Todd Munkin will 410 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: eventually find the right levers to push and pull in Baltimore, 411 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 2: but not week one. But not week one, that's the key. 412 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 2: Not week one. But I could see it in time. 413 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,239 Speaker 2: But I just think there's gonna be limitations on them 414 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 2: because of the fact that Lamar is gonna run the 415 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: football so much. And if you take away from Lamar 416 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 2: running the football and you're getting beat, people are gonna 417 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 2: be questioning like, hey, wait a second. You got one 418 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 2: of the best, you have, arguably the best running quarterback 419 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: we've ever seen in this league. Why are you not 420 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 2: running him? I mean, it's gonna be a real push pull. 421 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: But he's at seven, he's seventh, so high. 422 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 3: That's but this is a spec list and we're talking 423 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 3: about it. 424 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: PFF ranking ocs. Go ahead, here's where it goes to. 425 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 2: It completely different at nine and ten, All right, Number 426 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 2: nine is Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter and 427 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 2: number ten, hold your horses for this one. 428 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. Isn't macarthy gonna call 429 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: the plays? 430 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 2: He is, But Schottenheimer has been an absolute disaster wherever 431 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 2: he's been. 432 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and wait a minute, wasn't I in Jacksonville? Yeah? 433 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: Am I getting that wrong? 434 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 2: I think he was for a little bit. But I 435 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 2: don't know if he was the I don't know if 436 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: he was the offensive coordinator, but he was on the stack. 437 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 2: He was the passing game coordinator. In twenty twenty one, Yeah, 438 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 2: with Trevor Lawrence's rookie Lawrence. He was also the offensive 439 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: coordinator for Russell Wilson eighteen, nineteen and twenty, and Wilson 440 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 2: completely cratered in twenty twenty. 441 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 3: That revived his career because he was with the Colts 442 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 3: quarterbacks coach in sixteen and seventeen, but being able to 443 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 3: be with the Seahawks. 444 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: Actually it didn't really help him, but jet. 445 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 2: He was back with Rex Ryan and the Jets for 446 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 2: six years offensive coordinator. They didn't do anything. He went 447 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 2: to the Rams for three years offense coordinator. They didn't 448 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 2: do anything. He's back in the league with the Colts. 449 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 2: Then he got the offensive coordinator job with the Seahawks. 450 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 2: He ran the ball and he had half a season 451 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: of Russell let Russ cook. He let him cook, and 452 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 2: then things changed and he kind of went back to 453 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 2: what Schatdaheimer's always been. I think he is average at 454 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: best as an offensive coordinator. When I saw that, that's 455 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 2: what I'm like, You're gonna put Shatahammer on there, and 456 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 2: you're not gonna put Slowick. 457 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: I get that Bobby's never been in OC, but. 458 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 2: Then again, some of these other guys on this list, 459 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 2: I don't. 460 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 3: Know I was talking to some Cowboy fans. They are 461 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 3: so down on the situation there in that leadership. Because 462 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,360 Speaker 3: it's not that McCarthy's the worst head coach ever. 463 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: He's won a lot of games, Johnny. He certainly has 464 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. Like I said, you shouldn't have let 465 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: Kellen Moore leave the building. 466 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 2: That one to me, that baffles me. And look, behind 467 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 2: the scenes, you never how things go. Maybe behind the scene, 468 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 2: behind the scenes, Kellen and Mike just did see and 469 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 2: maybe that's what it is. And the guy's the head coach, 470 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 2: he's got to make that a call. 471 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: Okay. But if I'm Jerry, I step in and go, 472 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: who whoa, whoa, whoa whoa? Yeah, where's the young whoa? 473 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: See here? All right? 474 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 3: With the Houston Texans, different situation. We don't know how 475 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 3: good slow it's gonna be. But I like buying this 476 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 3: stock at this price because I think that I know 477 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 3: he's smart. I know he is and now you want 478 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 3: to see him operate. Obviously, we've seen the OTA part 479 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 3: of things. We're going to see the training camp part 480 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 3: of things. What really happens between the lines during the 481 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 3: season is what counts. But I'm eager to see it. 482 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 3: I'm here for it, and I like that you have 483 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: young leadership here, relatively young leadership here, with innovative ideas, 484 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 3: new ideas using some of the older system and we 485 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 3: don't know what it's going to look like, but I'm 486 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 3: excited about it. If you're a Cowboy fan, you know 487 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 3: you have some good personnel, right. I know they have 488 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 3: some people to replace Dalton Schultz. I know they have 489 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,439 Speaker 3: some people to replace, but they do like they have 490 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 3: some assets. Okay, they've won a lot of games last 491 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 3: couple of years, but really, where's the future and where's 492 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 3: the innovation and excitement, particularly on the offensive side of 493 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 3: the ball. 494 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, you look here. I think you see that here. 495 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 2: You definitely see that here in Houston, and I think 496 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 2: it's been a little while since we've had that, and 497 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 2: I think we have that for sure. And we've also 498 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 2: got some young dudes that can play.

He said, 632 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,479 Speaker 2: Tank Dell is the most electrifying player you ever coached. 633 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 2: Two years of coaching him, he still believed that. 634 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 4: I think he's three. 635 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, I probably believe it even more if that's I 636 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 7: don't remember saying that to you, you know, but just 637 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 7: watching what he's done over the last two seasons is 638 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 7: just it's it's unbelievable. I mean, the dude you can't cover. 639 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,239 Speaker 7: You know, he's just so quick and explosive. You know, 640 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 7: he's his nickname's Tank because he's tough. 641 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: He never missed a practice. 642 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 7: He's just got unbelievable sense of not getting hit. So 643 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 7: whether it's college, I understand the difference in college and NFL, 644 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 7: but I think you have immediate success because of his 645 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 7: ability to be able to get open and separate and 646 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 7: stay out of harm's way by not getting hit. 647 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 2: It felt like when you watch him on a field, 648 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 2: he was playing at a different rate of speed than 649 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 2: everybody else. When I saw of the senior boy, feel 650 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: like he's moving at a different rate than everybody else. 651 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 2: Both in the return game is well, how much a 652 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 2: part is that you think of tanks game going to 653 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 2: the NFL and how do you think that manifests himself 654 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 2: with the Texas well? 655 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 7: And the return thing is all about like not getting 656 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 7: hit right, So you know, making good decisions in the 657 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 7: return game, especially in the punt return game, is critical. 658 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: You know, he. 659 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 7: Didn't have the stats based on the fact that Marcus 660 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 7: Jones was that guy for two years. Well, Marcus Jones 661 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 7: did it in the NFL his first year with the 662 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 7: Patriots at a very high level, and so you know, 663 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 7: Tank was really only the guy one year had four 664 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 7: returns for touchdowns, three of them got called back. You know, 665 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 7: so he didn't get the stats of the accolades based 666 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 7: on a variety of things, but he's definitely got those capabilities. 667 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: Coach, I know you got to go.

He always makes his way out there 673 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 2: for at least one day during training camp, so it's 674 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 2: always good to see his career coaching staff and Dana 675 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 2: out there support of Texas. And I know he'll be 676 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: sporting this guy number thirteen, Tank Dell. 677 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: All Right. 678 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 2: Another guy that I ran into a short time after 679 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 2: that is guy known and got to know a little bit. 680 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 2: He's arguably the best college football writer there is from 681 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 2: the Athletic Bruce Feldman. And when I saw him he 682 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 2: was talking to another report. I thought, boy, I think 683 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 2: I could get a few good minutes with Bruce because 684 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 2: this guy knows everything, and not only that, he's been 685 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 2: following the Elite eleven for a long time. 686 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: He was a big supporter of c J. 687 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 2: Stroud and I thought, man, I could get some good 688 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 2: stuff from CJ. And then as I thought about, I 689 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 2: was like, hey, he probably knows Will Anderson, he probably 690 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: knows Tank Dell, he probably probably knows Demiko Ryans well. 691 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:25,959 Speaker 1: Yes, correct on all of them. 692 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 2: Bruce gave me some great stuff here, and my man, 693 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,479 Speaker 2: David Anderson is going to catch some strays in this 694 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 2: one because he's an apparent neighbor of Bruce Feldman, but 695 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: we'll get into that in this interview with my man, 696 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 2: Bruce Feldman. I love I standing next to my next guest, 697 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 2: this guy, whether it's meat market, whether it's quarterback. 698 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy has written. 699 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 2: So many great books. He is the voice on college football. 700 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 2: If it's not me, it's Bruce Feldman from the Athletic Bruce, 701 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about the guys the 702 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 2: Texans have added to their roster and start to top 703 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 2: with c J. 704 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 4: Stroud. 705 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 2: I know you were very ill say outspoken, but you 706 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 2: were very supportive. Things you heard, things you saw about 707 00:30:59,320 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 2: c J. 708 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: Stroud. What are the Texans getting in CJ. Stroud One? 709 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 8: They're getting somebody who's very very accurate, incredibly accurate, and 710 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 8: I think you were getting a guy who has no 711 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 8: real flaws. 712 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 4: He's got pretty good size. 713 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 8: I think I love the temperament, you know, and I 714 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 8: think it wasn't quite here. 715 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 4: It was at the Star where. 716 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 8: I think the opening was one year where he outperformed 717 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 8: everybody and he you know, including the guy who went 718 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 8: oh first. 719 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 4: Overall they were, you know, like. 720 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 8: He he was at his best even you look, when 721 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 8: Georgia was a it was the most talented defense in 722 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 8: the country. 723 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 4: He had them on the ropes. 724 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 8: You know, it's interesting in this regard because a lot 725 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 8: of talk around the draft came up at like the 726 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,239 Speaker 8: S two cognition test, And I remember talking to an 727 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 8: NFL quarterback coach for store I did on the athletic 728 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 8: right before the draft, and he was like, you know, 729 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 8: I had him first until those you know, some of 730 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 8: those results came out and he goes but like you 731 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 8: don't see any of the issues on film, and everybody 732 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 8: knows he's really smart. 733 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 4: Like I think, like if I was. 734 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 8: And again I'm not a not a GM. If I 735 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 8: had the first pick on the draft, I would dig him. 736 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 8: No knock on Bryce Young, but Bryson is not a 737 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 8: big man. At some point he is going to take 738 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 8: some big hits and how he's gonna respond now looks 739 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 8: you know, Cjil takes probably some big hits too, and 740 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 8: we'll see how he holds up. 741 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 4: But he's a lot more likely, I would think to be. 742 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 8: Durable, and I you know, I just think he's going 743 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 8: to be terrific. 744 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're hoping the same and I was when I 745 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 2: saw him live for the first time out of practice, 746 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 2: I thought, well, he's both put together that I thought, 747 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 2: another guy that's very. 748 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: Well put together. 749 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: The Texans went up to get Will Anderson.

There's you know, I think academically was 895 00:38:58,000 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 9: crushing in. 896 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: While I was here. 897 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 4: It was important to him. 898 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 9: Was devoted and focused when he was in class. And 899 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 9: then you know, off the field, like I say, just 900 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 9: kind of kept to his own studied was a professional 901 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 9: before he was a professional, and I think I have 902 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 9: to imagine that was you know, I think I'm sure 903 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 9: there's a lot of credit that goes to Matt Ruhle 904 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 9: and that staff or for doing that. The Peatry that 905 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,320 Speaker 9: we saw when we were there was already at these levels, 906 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 9: and so I just know, you know, he probably didn't 907 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 9: show up out of high school that way, you know, 908 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,720 Speaker 9: So there's some growth that had to occur and we were. 909 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 4: The recipients of it. 910 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 9: Then on the field was just way innovative, way creative, 911 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 9: played played with a chip on his shoulder and edge 912 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 9: and there's got to the point to where, you know, 913 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:56,800 Speaker 9: if we're blitzing off an edge and an offensive tackle 914 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 9: to a two man surface guard tackle surface and the 915 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 9: tack would overset on Jalen because he's rushing. You know, 916 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 9: we would say, hey, you're a contained rusher, You've got 917 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 9: to stay outside, and you know, Jalen would come inside 918 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 9: and make the sack or something, and he would do 919 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 9: it again and again, and so eventually we had like 920 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 9: Jalen rules, like Jalen can do this. Now you you're 921 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 9: not Jalen, you can't do this, but Jalen can do it. 922 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 9: And so I think there was a lot of things 923 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 9: that are like that, and I think, you know, I 924 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 9: think the other thing that came up with him as 925 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 9: a player was that there's times where you know, the 926 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 9: game needed to be closed out. 927 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,840 Speaker 4: There are times where we needed to make a play. 928 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 4: And I think when we have a young, inexperienced team, you're. 929 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 9: Worried about are you gonna jump off sides or are 930 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 9: you gonna you know, we're gonna holding penalty, are gonna 931 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 9: with Jalen. It was like, watch him, He's gonna make 932 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 9: this player, and so it's just way cool and so 933 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 9: we certainly miss it, way excited for him. 934 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 4: I know he had a great year, is gonna have 935 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 4: another one coming on.
