1
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: Welcome to the drive. I'm Dale Ali here with Matt Limpson.

2
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: It's a Wednesday, but for us it's really a Friday,

3
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,759
Speaker 1: because the steelers of course, play the Cleveland Browns in

4
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 1: Cleveland on Thursday. That makes Friday Friday, that we're back

5
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: on a regular schedule in for the weekend. But UH, yeah,

6
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: a little everything jammed in a little bit more this week.

7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: And so, uh, the steelers having their final walk through today. Um,

8
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: nobody listed on their injury report, although minca Fitzpatrick did

9
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: uh suffer through some lower leg cramps today. No big deal. Uh,

10
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: the only person out on either side of this game

11
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:52,840
Speaker 1: who is on the active roster would be Jadavian clowney. Okay, Um,

12
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: but of course said Jesse James and Chase winning, which

13
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: put on injured reserve earlier this week by the browns,

14
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: is everybody else is good to go. That means you

15
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: know that Garett's Garret's gonna play, Batonio is gonna play,

16
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: Conklin's gonna play, but you wonder how Gonya. I was

17
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 1: thinking he might be out no matter what. Yeah, you

18
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: wonder how how effective those guys can be dealing with

19
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: injuries on a short week. I mean I got the impression,

20
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: and again I'm just reading between the lines here, that

21
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 1: those three injuries batonio, Garrett and Conklin, who I didn't

22
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: expect to play, we're more serious than anything the steelers

23
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: active guys were dealing with like they were. Actually there's

24
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: actually injuries there, you know. It's not just a strain or,

25
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, to keep them out type of thing. But, um,

26
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: we'll see. And we saw Garrett. He's been great this year,

27
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: Um in spurts, um, but we saw him operating not

28
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: at last year and he was a shell of himself.

29
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 1: I think we'll know pretty quick you know, where he's at. Yeah,

30
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: we'll get a pretty good idea that. Um, you know.

31
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: And even with those guys available, Um, the Brown's defense

32
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: has been an issue this year. It is it's kind

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: of all over the place now. I'm looking here at

34
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 1: their stature. I'm looking at pro football reference and they

35
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: do advanced defensive stats now where you can find, uh,

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, how many completions a guy has given up on,

37
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: how many attempts, how many touchdown passes, yard and all

38
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 1: that good stuff. Um. So Denzel War has been pretty good.

39
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: He's given up five completions on nine pass attempts for

40
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 1: sixty seven yards. No touchdowns. UH, so not bad there.

41
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: Greg newsome, ten of thirteen for a hundred forty three

42
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: yards in a touchdown. In his coverage he's gotten he's

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: getting peppered with a few more targets than than word. Um,

44
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: I need to study it again. I should have double

45
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: checked this, but they were planning on making him the slot,

46
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: which is a little miscast for him. Yeah, I'm not

47
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: sure how much slot work he's doing in, you know,

48
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: Nicol and it looks like Martin Emerson's playing some, because

49
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: that was trying. The had to work that out. Yeah, UH,

50
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: teams are are seven of eleven for fifty one yards

51
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: in a touchdown when they target emer summerson. The one

52
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: that's really surprising to me for them Jeremiah Osukremoa. Um,

53
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: he's everybody's darling, is a good football player, runs around.

54
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: He's been targeted twelve times in coverage this year. Eleven

55
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: completions for a hundred and fifty two yards and three,

56
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: count them, three touchdowns he's allowed in two games. Wow,

57
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 1: I'm wondering if that's a lot of McCaffrey, Breece Hall

58
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: Michael Carter, because those two teams, caroline and the jets,

59
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: they don't have a real dynamic tightens. It's a sunny yard,

60
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: soo yards and eleven completions running backs. I don't know

61
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: if that's the case. I don't know. I mean you

62
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: mentioned before before we got the air. Is He a slot? Well,

63
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: he's certainly done something. He's done some of that, yeah,

64
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: in college and things, and they've used them that way

65
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: last year. Um, that's interesting. You know, like he's a

66
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: little different than than Devin Bush in terms of their

67
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: physical makeup, but they're both second level guys that are early.

68
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: Remember the whole conversation we had about linebackers getting picked

69
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: on in their career. You know, I mean, I don't

70
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: care how what Fort do you run or your shuttles

71
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: or jumping out of the gym. It's hard adjusting to

72
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: this league on that second level when you know the

73
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: jets or Carolina motions a guy across and you take

74
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: a shovel step to your right and then there's a

75
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: play action and you freeze your feet and then all

76
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: of a sudden you're a step behind and boom the

77
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: balls on you. So young linebackers, I don't care who

78
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: you are, pick on them. The other one that stands

79
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: out is grant delpit. Uh. He's given up five completions

80
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: in seven attempts, sixty seven yards, two touchdowns. I was

81
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: wondering if he's allowing big plays because he's a lot

82
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: of times their center field or type. You know, he's

83
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 1: well off the line of scrimmage, and they've allowed some

84
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: big plays. Well, they definitely allowed some big plays. In fact,

85
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: some of those, you look at, you wonder who was

86
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: in coverage that. That's the one thing I was gonna

87
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: say is, like, I'm not disputing those numbers. I mean

88
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: they did to work more than I did, that's for sure.

89
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: But like the Corey Davis touchdown, who they blame it on?

90
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: That you know what I mean? Like you, you could

91
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 1: blame the guy in the front row as much as

92
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: the eleven defenders that were on the field. I'm looking here, conversely,

93
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: at the steelers coverage stuff. Here, uh, Camp Sutton is

94
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: only allowing a completion percentage in his coverage, eight of eighteen, uh,

95
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: for ninety six yards. He has given up a touchdown,

96
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: but he's got an interception. Could have had two. Yeah,

97
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: the the passer rating against him is fifty six point seven.

98
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: Kello weatherspoon is twelve or sixteen for a hundred, twenty

99
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: three yards. Two touchdowns. That he has obviously right. Um Loo,

100
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: can hear miles Jack Again, going back to that linebacker conversation,

101
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: nine for twelve for seventy yards. So you can live

102
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: with that. That's fine. If it's started eight and you

103
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: allowed a seven yard complete seven point eight yards for

104
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: per completion is fine. Make it fitzpatrick, six or ten,

105
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: but he's got two interceptions. It's only a lot of

106
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: fifty four yards he given. So He's given up five

107
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: point four yards per catch and uh, thirty five, thirty

108
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: five passer rating against him when he's in coverage. And

109
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: then who else? I threw edmonds giving up an eighty

110
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: five point nine uh completion percentage, five of eight for

111
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: sixty one yards. Um, it's like nothing. Yeah, I mean

112
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: that's mostly covering tight ends. So Uh, you know he's done.

113
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: He's done a good job of that. Or even as

114
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: a cover two guy deep downfield on a shot and

115
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: they've done more of that with him this year. He's

116
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: played back deeper a little bit. Yeah, so I'm it's

117
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: curious as Bush on there. UH, Devon Bush. Yeah, he's

118
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: given up two completions and four attempts for twenty yards.

119
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: So they've only gone his way four times. Right. I

120
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 1: mean it hasn't been on the field a lot, especially

121
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: in the dime. Uh, just a fair amount of snaps

122
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: at a snaps of the year. I'm not seeing us.

123
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: I'm not seeing SPLEAN listed on here. Where's he? Oh,

124
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: there he is. Uh. He's given up five completions and

125
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 1: six attempts, but for forty two yards. Okay, he'll take that.

126
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 1: That's much better than he played a camp or whatever. Yeah,

127
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: I mean those are typically those are easy completions to linebacker.

128
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: But what you can't have is what as a core Mora? Yeah, right,

129
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,039
Speaker 1: you know where you're giving up double, you know, more

130
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: than ten yards of catch. That's bad. It is. I

131
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 1: mean I'm glad I know his situationally, he's not used

132
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: the same way spillane and Jack are, but I think

133
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: it's intriguing that a team that knows him really well, Cincinnati,

134
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: and then a team that could watch the first game

135
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: and watched all his last year tape. As all due

136
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: New England, they only targeted Bush four times all year,

137
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: you know, like you would think he'd be the guy

138
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: you target, you know, just off the scouting report, and

139
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: he must be covering his dudes. Yeah, doing, doing a

140
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: pretty good job there. I just thought those numbers were interesting,

141
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: as I always like to check in on those to

142
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: see how guys are doing there. I know, Um, you know,

143
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: you in with the grounds. Yeah, the browns defense a

144
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: little disjointed. There's a lot of names, but WHO's really excelling?

145
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 1: Right down there was some delpitt and UH oosha core

146
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 1: more are three guys that you look at good point.

147
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: Those guys are, you know, highly drafted, good, solid young players, but,

148
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 1: like all young players, they're gonna get the ball. They're

149
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: gonna get tested until they show they can hold up

150
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: in those to them. Or you don't. Yeah, where you don't?

151
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: You continue to be tested until you're no longer in

152
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: the league. None of those guys. I would I avoid, though,

153
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,240
Speaker 1: including the word. I mean if words on Deonte or

154
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: any of those guys, I'm not hesitating. Um, like there's

155
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: usually on the right side of their I think they're

156
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: a left right team. Yeah, I think they were. The

157
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: most they were with newsome when he was on one

158
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: side so I want to see the I want to

159
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: see the steelers get George pickens matched up on Denzel Ward.

160
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: Just go up and get that situation. Yeah, that would

161
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: be fine. Yeah, you would think with the threat of

162
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: Deonte and Claypool in the in the slot, when the

163
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: browns get that, I would assume, hey, Denzel, we're paying

164
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: you a ton of money, we're not giving you a

165
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: lot of help in that situation. You got the rook

166
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: ye well, and they haven't thrown his way a whole lot.

167
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: You'll be fine, you know. But I like to match

168
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 1: up at deonte Johnson Against Newsom, a lot on the

169
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: outside in terms of twisting him. Yeah, bigger, taller, you know. Yeah, Um,

170
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: you know. And then and their slots kind of question.

171
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: I mean Claypool is not an easy challenge. FRIARMOUTH, right,

172
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 1: neither more's a guy that you can pick on. I

173
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: mean the tapes of is he's showing that. And he's

174
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: a smaller, he's a sneer, right, he runs well, but

175
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: and even Naugy, I mean I wouldn't mind getting Nagy

176
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,599
Speaker 1: on him. So they're back seven has guys and the

177
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: Front for is a little questionable. Outside of GA their

178
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 1: back seven has guys, but again, the steelers skill guys

179
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: can hang with any in the league. I mean it's

180
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: not if they're used there and use at the right

181
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 1: depths and, you know, spread the ball around and all

182
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: those good things. And I expect the steelers to protected

183
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: quite well too. Yeah, I honestly I think this is

184
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: a game that Nagy Harris Kinda gets it going a

185
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: little bit, I would hope. If you look at the

186
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: two games last year week, eighty six carries, fore yards.

187
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: That's only three and a half yards of carry, but

188
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: he a touchdown. He had three catches for twenty nine yards.

189
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: If you're handed to him that much, you're happy about

190
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,199
Speaker 1: it because you're keeping chubbing hunting the guys standing on

191
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 1: the sideline. In the second game, twenty eight carries for

192
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: a hundred and eighty eight yards in three catches for

193
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: eighteen years. He had over two hundred yards of offense

194
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: in that game. Yeah, I'm a little rusty on last

195
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: year's tape. Of course, out of sight, out of mind,

196
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: but I remember thinking that might have been his best

197
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: game as a pro. You know how he looked induction.

198
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: WAS THAT ONE IN THE DENVER GAME? That yeah, yeah,

199
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: you know, he really tore birthdays of the first round

200
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: pick right. So, you know, I think people are looking

201
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: at Harris's starter. He's off to a slow start. He's

202
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: missing holes and he didn't play in the preseason. Didn't

203
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: play in you know, he got four carries in the preseason.

204
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 1: Then he got ten carries in week one. I thought

205
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: as the game were on last week he got better.

206
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: I did too. I think I told you this. I

207
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: did a quick little postgame podcast and I did thumbs

208
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 1: up and thumbs down, picked like five to ten players

209
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: and I know where to put Naji and I'm like

210
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: I need to address him. He was a part of

211
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,599
Speaker 1: the touchdown drive. That's why I put him in the

212
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: thumbs up category, because I said I'm really reluctant to

213
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: do this because this was not his best game. I

214
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: know he is capable of more, but it hasn't been

215
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: the easiest transition from the preseason too now and it

216
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: didn't even practice much. And the thing I kept stressing

217
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: was their best drive went through nausea. Yeah, I mean

218
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: even when he wasn't catching the football, he was running

219
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: it and doing so effectively. Right, I promise you. Tomlin

220
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: went over to Canada said this is a nausea. Let's

221
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: get this guy involved. Yeah, and they did, and that

222
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: was their cleanest, smoothest, most efficient drive by far. I'm

223
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: listening to a fantasy football show today and they're they're

224
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: talking about Naji Harrison. Well, maybe this. You know, he's

225
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: he was overdrafted this year. He shouldn't, you know, he

226
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: shouldn't have gone late first round, early second round. I'm like,

227
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: that's that? First of all, he had twenty touches last

228
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: week for eight nine yards. Right, that's fine. You take

229
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: that all all day long from me, from your running back.

230
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: He scored in week one. Um, he's got twenty five

231
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: carries this year. Yeah, I promise you if he gets

232
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: twenty plus carries in this game, one for fantasy. Yeah,

233
00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: and I think that's gonna be the plan. Like they

234
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: get a figure out. The plan coming out of week

235
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: one was, okay, we gotta stay on the field more.

236
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: Our third third downs were not good. Right. Well, this week,

237
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: this past week against the Patriots, third downs were much better,

238
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 1: and so they were able to incorporate him more. Uh,

239
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: you know, they just missed on a couple of thirds.

240
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: The third downs in the fourth quarter were the killers.

241
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: They had a third two after two runs by by Harris.

242
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: You know, got the eight yards. They have third and

243
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: two and they miss on the past down the sideline

244
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 1: the Harris again, trying to run the offense through Harris Right, right,

245
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: and that was just a throw that was a smidge off,

246
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: because I'm ad think the game goes different if if

247
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: they get that one. We talked about that play a

248
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: lot on Monday. That was the matchup they wanted. I'm

249
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: not cutting on Tripsky or any of the steelers, but

250
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: you know how coaches are. You set it up, you

251
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: set it up and you're like, okay, I'm gonna run

252
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 1: the wheel of Nasey now. I think I got it.

253
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: I think I have attended their tendencies on defense. They

254
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: got exactly what they wanted. They got the matchup they

255
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: wanted and the execution was six inches off. Yeah, I mean, tew,

256
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: this game is played right, right, so I'm not concerned

257
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: about him at all. And I like Jay Len Warren

258
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: as a kind of a change of pace and I'd

259
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: keep using them. I'd keep using him as well, especially

260
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: on a short week where Harris just got again twenty touches.

261
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: I can all see Warren just driving into Garrett's ribs

262
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 1: on a couple of past plays to the guy just

263
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: biting his ankles, you know. But he's been effective when

264
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 1: he's been in there running the ball. Yeah, they have

265
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: to finding him. You did a really good article on

266
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: him and some homework on him. I've written you. I've

267
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: got most of the article and then we'll drop this weekend.

268
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: But found some really interesting things about him. Backgrounds really impressive.

269
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: It's it's it really is. I was looking at the

270
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: I look back at the two thousand sixteen Max preps

271
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: all American team. The three running backs on the two

272
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: thousand sixteen Max preps all America team. We're Nadia Harris,

273
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 1: deandre swift and Jay Len Warren with the Bam with Georgia,

274
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: and the other one had to go to junior college

275
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: because everybody thought he's too small. And what's funny like

276
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 1: him and Nazy Walk in the room like I'll take

277
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: care of yeah. Oh by the way, Cam Akers was

278
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 1: on that roster too. Is a specialist on the on

279
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: the I mean there's four NFL running backs on and

280
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: tee higgins was onto t I mean, of course it

281
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: was just guys all over that thing. Yeah, and he's

282
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: right there with them. Guy Inds of senior year in

283
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: high school. It's amazing. I don't care him. You're playing

284
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: against right, right, I don't care who you're playing. I

285
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: think they stole one there and I think his role

286
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: will continue to be maybe a two to one ratio.

287
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: That's where we've been. Maybe, you know, maybe a little

288
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: heavier on the once he's more comfortable. Um, this is

289
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: a short week for Harris. I mean, I wonder if

290
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: his foot's bothering him a little more than ever. Or

291
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: does it bother him zero now? I don't know. I mean,

292
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: who knows? Um, they're gonna need him. I mean, but

293
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: in the the usage last week was what you want

294
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: to see for him. Yeah, yeah, you know, you want

295
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: to see twenty touches a game and if they can

296
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: get honestly five, you know, targets, and if they can

297
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 1: get worn, you know, whatever else. You know, five to

298
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: ten touches. That word. That's fine, fine, that's a nice

299
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: that's a nice ratio. He's a different look than Harris.

300
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: You know, he's he's that that's shorter back. He can

301
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: get lost a little bit. The thing that I that

302
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 1: I like about him is, you know, when he breaks

303
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: the line at first of all, he hits the line

304
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: of scrimmage fast. Yeah, that's the one thing his high

305
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: school coach told me. He says, look, his first three

306
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: steps are as fast as anybody I've ever seen. He

307
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 1: hits Um and he said, you know, and the thing

308
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: about it he doesn't get ahead of his skis either.

309
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: He's good contact balance. Yeah, but he has the vision

310
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: that he can you know, he's not cash and checks.

311
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: His feet aren't. His vision isn't able to deal with

312
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: and the linebackers end up catching him a lot of

313
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: times when he when he does run, you know, run

314
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: into them because he's lower than they are. Yeah, so

315
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: he's always falling forward Um, and they didn't have that

316
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: guy last year like they really did. The defense went

317
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: and when, thanks whatever, exhale, which is why they didn't

318
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: do it very much, you know. So now you've got

319
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: a guy that Whoa, I saw this guy on tape.

320
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 1: What's he all about? Oh, he just drove into my

321
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: ribs too, and better deal with him or right at

322
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: my knees, right. I mean, he's no fun. No, that's

323
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: that's certainly no fun. Uh. So I think they've they've

324
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: got a nice kind of one two punch that they

325
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: just need to get it rolling a little bit and

326
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: I think this is the week that they do it. Um,

327
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: you know that the guys are great. The browns haven't

328
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: given up a lot rushing because, well, everybody's throwing on him.

329
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: You know, the posing running backs only have twenty seven

330
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: carries against them in the first two weeks, and that's McCaffrey,

331
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: Hall Carter, like the dudes right. Yeah, so I want

332
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: to see the steelers. I'd like to see twenty seven

333
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: carries out of the running backs period in this game.

334
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 1: Would you say the steelers way if I told you

335
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: that the running backs carried a twenty seven times? Yes,

336
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: made me too. Yeah, I mean time and possession worries me. Sitting,

337
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: you know, all these great weapons were talking about, spending

338
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: a lot of time the sidelines. Worries me like this

339
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: game doesn't go well, I got to stay on the field,

340
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: and this one, because a your defense is planning on

341
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: a short week, you don't want them out and you

342
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: want to grind on that. That Brown's defense. They're they're

343
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,360
Speaker 1: short guys up front. Their line is grindable. It's kind

344
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: of it's kind of the steelers line from last year

345
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,199
Speaker 1: right where? Okay, you still have you still have Garrett there.

346
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: You still had hayward, but everybody else has, you know,

347
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: kind of banged up a little bit. You don't have Robin.

348
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 1: We didn't plan on having these guys play this many

349
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: snaps this early, right, like, who? I mean, if I

350
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: were them, maybe they should be the theme that goes

351
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,199
Speaker 1: gets AU Pierre Paul or some kind of something. I mean,

352
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: I guess they have money. They have some money. Right.

353
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 1: I don't understand. I remember before the season sue was

354
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 1: visiting the Oma Kong sue. I'd be a lot I'd

355
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: be a lot more fearful or a lot more respectful

356
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: of their line if they had one more guy. Yeah,

357
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: then they got a lot of borderline dudes. Yeah, I

358
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: just think they want to roll that money over into

359
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: next year, because next years that's trouble spats. Right. Um,

360
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: real quick I'll be critical of this old line. I

361
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 1: just read an article about the line saying they're getting better.

362
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: You know, I mean no one wants to admit it, Um,

363
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: but I'll be critical. If they don't, I'm gonna do

364
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 1: that far and say they don't win the matchup on

365
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: on Thursday. I mean against this front. I understand Garrett's

366
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: a superstar, but because he's only one, he should get

367
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: doubled all the time. That I think collectively, the steelers

368
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: offensive big men should win this matchup. The last two

369
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: weeks I didn't feel that way. You know, let's let's

370
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: talk about that real quickly. Yeah, the first two weeks

371
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: of the season the steelers have played Cincinnati in Cincinnati.

372
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: This past week they played New England with a quote

373
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: unquote defensive genius in Belichick on the other sideline. And

374
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: people are already ready to write this offense off like Oh,

375
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: it's never it's it stinks, it's the same as last year,

376
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: it's not gonna get any better. I mean they're not

377
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 1: the best defenses in the league, but they're far from

378
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: the worst. Well, and the thing about the Cincinnati game

379
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: to you, you had a seventeen three lead. You weren't

380
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: going to take any chances in that game. No, I

381
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: bet they regret the leaguer away with it. I bet

382
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: they regret a little bit of maybe we should have

383
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 1: put the foot on the game a little, a little

384
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 1: bit more. And then you you heard Tom win talk

385
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: about the game against the Patriots like look, we just

386
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 1: we knew it was gonna be that kind of football

387
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: game where it was probably gonna be a one score

388
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: game one where or the other. You just can't make

389
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: the big mistake against them. And offensively, you know they

390
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: they really didn't do it offensive I know, you know

391
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: it's a bisky through a pick, but the big mistakes

392
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: were gunner, gunner on the MUFF, punt touchdown down the

393
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: sideline and the dropped interception. You know, yes, you want

394
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: more out of your offense. There's no doubt about and

395
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: you gotta, you know, you gotta be able to grind

396
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: out some first downs. We needed first downs. But belichicks

397
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: consider one of the top defensive minds of all time,

398
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: you know, and so you know, yes, I'd like to

399
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: see them take more shots down the field. I I

400
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 1: don't think this New England defense is all that, but

401
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 1: I I understand. You know, when they go into games

402
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: against a team like that. Well, we gotta take care

403
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 1: of the football. I don't know that you're you go

404
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: into game against the Browns thinking, boy, we gotta really,

405
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 1: we gotta Really Watch this this week because you know

406
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: their offense is so explosive. I don't know that this

407
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 1: offense is all that explosive. Che and they've done yeah,

408
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: they've done a pretty good job against Chubb over there

409
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: over the years. I mean he hasn't he's had, you know, everybody,

410
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 1: but yeah, but he hasn't been. He hasn't been, you know,

411
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: a flat out Woll boy. Chubb just killed him again,

412
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 1: uh in in once he played. He's played seven career

413
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: games against the steelers. He's averaged fifteen, point one carries,

414
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: sixty six yards, point one touchdowns. He has one touchdown.

415
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: I mean if they hold him to sixty six yards,

416
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: I don't care how many carries he gets, I'll take it. Yeah,

417
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:50,199
Speaker 1: I mean his career and that includes a he had

418
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: a four team for one oh eight in a touchdown

419
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: against them back in week well, the last game of

420
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: the twenty season, when they steelers are play resting all

421
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: their guys, right, right, you know that was that was

422
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: his only hundred yard game against the steelers. Interesting, in

423
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: seven tries, even the playoff game where Cleveland beat the

424
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: steelers eight team for seventy six. Well, yeah, not. I

425
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: mean he has a lot of hundred ARD games in

426
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: his career, even though he's not a massive workload guy

427
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: because a hunt bee in there. He's a great player. Um,

428
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: these little nuggets on the opponent. So too what we

429
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: don't I'm not making excuses for the offense. Like you said,

430
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 1: so it wasn't good enough, but I think this is

431
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: a fact. I Bet The coaching staff, Tomlin, Canada, whoever

432
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: was saying stressing all week, take care of and then

433
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: they get the lead in in Sinc two, let's turn

434
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 1: the ball over. Yeah, let's play defense offensively to some degree.

435
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 1: I mean, they keep throwing it to us. Let's let

436
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: him keep doing that. I mean, I'm sure you've got

437
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 1: a million tweets to tribisky is not aggressive enough, Blah Blah.

438
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: The stats show that, but if he's being told not

439
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: to be, that's different, you know. I mean, you just

440
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 1: don't that answer. And then the last no, I want

441
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 1: to make two is both these defensive lines they faced

442
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: are kind of rare in the NFL right now. Big,

443
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: really huge. I mean they're across the line. Since he

444
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: and the Patriots, or maybe the saints are that way,

445
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,959
Speaker 1: there's maybe about five teams that one ends that are

446
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,719
Speaker 1: to seventy to seventy five. Then tackles that are three, twenty,

447
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: you know, like they have more beef upfront than most teams. Yeah,

448
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what they don't with. You can now

449
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: listen to steelers nation radio anytime, anywhere through your smart speaker.

450
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,880
