Speaker 3: through the screen.

11
00:00:45,028 --> 00:00:47,468
Speaker 5: So the giddiness is up at ten. Not only because

Speaker 5: Mahomes was NA number four in the NFL Top one

15
00:00:54,988 --> 00:00:58,748

Speaker 5: It's great.

23
00:01:13,308 --> 00:01:15,108
Speaker 6: It's football and it's the best part of the year

24
00:01:15,548 --> 00:01:17,748
Speaker 6: where all thirty two teams think that this could be

25
00:01:17,828 --> 00:01:19,868
Speaker 6: the year. The fans think this could be the year.

26
00:01:19,908 --> 00:01:21,468
Speaker 6: So to be boots on the ground and have these

27
00:01:21,468 --> 00:01:23,788
Speaker 6: great interviews. And it's only one hundred degrees. So I've

32
00:01:33,108 --> 00:01:36,388
Speaker 5: it's hot at the table by saying how hot it is.

33
00:01:36,548 --> 00:01:38,828
Speaker 5: And now Peter's properly done it because it's not your guys.

34
00:01:38,988 --> 00:01:41,428
Speaker 3: Kyle, how dare you not have a prop that shows

35
00:01:41,468 --> 00:01:42,588
Speaker 3: me just how hot it is?

36
00:01:42,988 --> 00:01:43,228
Speaker 2: Uh?

37
00:01:43,868 --> 00:01:46,068
Speaker 4: John, I need a temperature to show you.

38
00:01:45,988 --> 00:01:47,148
Speaker 7: A giant thermometer.

39
00:01:47,348 --> 00:01:47,868
Speaker 2: Look at this.

40
00:01:48,148 --> 00:01:51,628
Speaker 3: That's what you're saying, Peter, sweat is enough, guys, thank you.

41
00:01:51,748 --> 00:01:53,468
Speaker 8: Going to a training camp as well, Yeah, I'm going

42
00:01:53,468 --> 00:01:55,668
Speaker 8: to a training camp. I'm going back to uh to

43
00:01:55,748 --> 00:01:57,348
Speaker 8: where it all started from me. I'm going back to

44
00:01:57,388 --> 00:01:59,708
Speaker 8: the Raiders camp. So that's it'll be pretty cool. And

45
00:01:59,748 --> 00:02:02,628
Speaker 8: they're here in California, so that's right.

46
00:02:02,668 --> 00:02:03,908
Speaker 4: That's okay.

47
00:02:03,948 --> 00:02:06,468
Speaker 3: So from the Jets to the Raiders camp, let's go

48
00:02:06,548 --> 00:02:09,268
Speaker 3: to Latrobe, Pennsylvania for the league block. We're gonna talk

49
00:02:09,308 --> 00:02:12,908
Speaker 3: Steelers Russell Wilson. He's been dealing with a calf injury

50
00:02:13,068 --> 00:02:16,148
Speaker 3: and he's done some work in eleven on eleven, but our.

51
00:02:16,148 --> 00:02:17,948
Speaker 4: NFL media insider Tom peal Sero.

52
00:02:17,908 --> 00:02:20,588
Speaker 3: Says he could be fully clear this week. Justin Fields

53
00:02:20,588 --> 00:02:22,508
Speaker 3: those been taking a lot of the reps with the

54
00:02:22,548 --> 00:02:25,788
Speaker 3: starters in his absence, and Russ has nothing but praise

55
00:02:26,188 --> 00:02:28,388
Speaker 3: for the younger quarterback that he.

56
00:02:28,428 --> 00:02:29,388
Speaker 4: Is competing with.

57
00:02:30,108 --> 00:02:32,228
Speaker 9: I've known Justin for years. I remember back in his

58
00:02:32,268 --> 00:02:35,188
Speaker 9: Ohio State days watching them, and you know, we've texted

59
00:02:35,228 --> 00:02:37,788
Speaker 9: and called during the seasons in the past and everything

60
00:02:37,788 --> 00:02:39,668
Speaker 9: else and just try to be a mentor in any

61
00:02:39,668 --> 00:02:42,308
Speaker 9: way that I can, you know, and and so you know,

62
00:02:42,508 --> 00:02:45,428
Speaker 9: he's a tremendous worker. He's a guy who loves the

63
00:02:45,428 --> 00:02:48,428
Speaker 9: game of football, and so we both really relate to that.

64
00:02:48,508 --> 00:02:51,268
Speaker 9: And then you know, just being you know, I remember

65
00:02:51,308 --> 00:02:53,708
Speaker 9: being a young black quarterback in the National Football League.

66
00:02:53,708 --> 00:02:55,028
Speaker 9: There's a lot of there's a lot of great things

67
00:02:55,028 --> 00:02:56,868
Speaker 9: about playing quarterback, and there's tough things along the way,

68
00:02:56,908 --> 00:02:58,308
Speaker 9: and so we think we share a lot of those

69
00:02:58,428 --> 00:03:00,948
Speaker 9: similarities and the things that we've been through and just

70
00:03:00,988 --> 00:03:02,468
Speaker 9: being able to teach as much as I can. He's

71
00:03:02,468 --> 00:03:05,548
Speaker 9: an extremely talented guy. Yeah, and you know he's got

72
00:03:05,548 --> 00:03:06,628
Speaker 9: a great demeanor about him.

73
00:03:07,188 --> 00:03:07,548
Speaker 4: All Right.

74
00:03:07,628 --> 00:03:12,628
Speaker 3: So Russell Wilson, Justin Field's new offensive coordinator in Arthur Smith,

75
00:03:12,708 --> 00:03:16,028
Speaker 3: a lot of new additions to Steelers Guys, what do

76
00:03:16,068 --> 00:03:19,348
Speaker 3: we make of this offense specifically going into twenty twenty

77
00:03:19,628 --> 00:03:20,948
Speaker 3: for Peter I'll start with you.

78
00:03:21,428 --> 00:03:23,348
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think the Arthur Smith thing is that we're

79
00:03:23,348 --> 00:03:25,388
Speaker 6: not talking about and what he's going to bring on offense.

80
00:03:25,388 --> 00:03:27,108
Speaker 6: And if you're a Falcons fan, you're laughing at home

81
00:03:27,148 --> 00:03:29,588
Speaker 6: and saying, Arthur Smith last year was dismal, and they

82
00:03:29,668 --> 00:03:32,548
Speaker 6: before that. You go back to those Tennessee days and

83
00:03:32,548 --> 00:03:35,228
Speaker 6: what did they do. They had Ryan Tannehill, Derrick Henry

84
00:03:35,468 --> 00:03:37,228
Speaker 6: and two tight ends and they would run the ball

85
00:03:37,268 --> 00:03:38,788
Speaker 6: down your throat and then they would make the big

86
00:03:38,788 --> 00:03:39,668
Speaker 6: play when they needed to.

87
00:03:39,988 --> 00:03:40,468
Speaker 2: I feel like.

88
00:03:40,428 --> 00:03:43,028
Speaker 6: Russell Wilson's the guy. He's talking like he's the guy,

89
00:03:43,268 --> 00:03:45,708
Speaker 6: and as we sit here on August fifth, he's the guy.

90
00:03:45,988 --> 00:03:48,308
Speaker 6: And until something goes wrong with his health, and until

91
00:03:48,348 --> 00:03:51,588
Speaker 6: something happens to training camp where Justin Fields is just undeniable,

92
00:03:51,748 --> 00:03:53,268
Speaker 6: it's going to be Russell's team and it's going to

93
00:03:53,308 --> 00:03:55,348
Speaker 6: be Arthur Smith's team. And what I like about it

94
00:03:55,348 --> 00:03:58,188
Speaker 6: it's two guys who had the utmost respect from the

95
00:03:58,228 --> 00:04:00,388
Speaker 6: rest of the league and in the last few years

96
00:04:00,428 --> 00:04:00,948
Speaker 6: have become.

97
00:04:00,748 --> 00:04:01,788
Speaker 10: A bit of a laughing stock.

98
00:04:01,908 --> 00:04:02,628
Speaker 7: And I like that.

99
00:04:02,828 --> 00:04:04,908
Speaker 6: I like guys who have chips on their show. And

100
00:04:04,988 --> 00:04:07,748
Speaker 6: if you look at the franchise, the Steelers' logo, it

101
00:04:07,788 --> 00:04:09,748
Speaker 6: went from being, yeah, they make the playoffs every year,

102
00:04:09,748 --> 00:04:11,748
Speaker 6: and yeah, they're over five hundred every year and Mike

103
00:04:12,068 --> 00:04:15,308
Speaker 6: to last year, you know what, Steelers fans are sick

104
00:04:15,348 --> 00:04:17,948
Speaker 6: of being five hundred and making the playoffs. Steelers fans

105
00:04:17,948 --> 00:04:20,508
Speaker 6: are sick of hearing about great Mike Tomlin was because

106
00:04:20,548 --> 00:04:23,348
Speaker 6: guess what they're owing seven in their last playoff games

107
00:04:23,468 --> 00:04:27,348
Speaker 6: now they've played. So to me, it's three different people, Tomlin,

108
00:04:27,908 --> 00:04:30,828
Speaker 6: Russell Wilson and Arthur Smith, three guys who have giant

109
00:04:30,948 --> 00:04:33,988
Speaker 6: chips on their shoulders and reasons to want to motivate

110
00:04:34,228 --> 00:04:35,868
Speaker 6: and shut the world up and show that they are

111
00:04:35,868 --> 00:04:36,788
Speaker 6: here and they're here to stay.

112
00:04:36,788 --> 00:04:39,028
Speaker 5: I think it's interesting you're giving the gig to Russell.

113
00:04:39,068 --> 00:04:40,828
Speaker 5: There were some juice here, but maybe justin Fields wins

114
00:04:40,868 --> 00:04:42,708
Speaker 5: it out. Right, that's not your instinct or what you're hearing,

115
00:04:42,748 --> 00:04:43,708
Speaker 5: or a little bit of both.

116
00:04:43,588 --> 00:04:45,068
Speaker 7: A little bit of both, and I feel like it

117
00:04:45,108 --> 00:04:47,628
Speaker 7: is wrong. Russell's the statesman. It's his job to lose.

118
00:04:47,868 --> 00:04:48,748
Speaker 6: That's how I look at it.

119
00:04:48,788 --> 00:04:50,708
Speaker 5: I look at the Chargers this year and a lot

120
00:04:50,708 --> 00:04:51,988
Speaker 5: of the talk about the Charges, and I'll get to

121
00:04:52,028 --> 00:04:54,308
Speaker 5: the Steelers is that Jim Harbrough's gonna show up and run.

122
00:04:54,388 --> 00:04:56,708
Speaker 5: And maybe they don't have any high profile wide receivers

123
00:04:56,948 --> 00:04:58,468
Speaker 5: Justin Herbert Hurt. Now they're going to run. Theyre gonn

124
00:04:58,508 --> 00:04:59,988
Speaker 5: run thirty times a game. I don't know if they'renna

125
00:05:00,028 --> 00:05:01,388
Speaker 5: run as much as the Steelers are gonna run. And

126
00:05:01,428 --> 00:05:03,308
Speaker 5: I mean this in the best possible way. I'm gonna

127
00:05:03,308 --> 00:05:05,748
Speaker 5: do this in a good morning football style. Last season,

128
00:05:05,948 --> 00:05:08,308
Speaker 5: before Justin Fields was there, before Russell Wilson was there,

129
00:05:08,308 --> 00:05:11,668
Speaker 5: before Arthur Smith was there, the Pittsburgh Steelers had seven

130
00:05:12,028 --> 00:05:15,068
Speaker 5: different nominations for angry runs on this program. Just start

131
00:05:15,108 --> 00:05:17,588
Speaker 5: running the video tape. This is the twenty twenty three

132
00:05:17,668 --> 00:05:20,628
Speaker 5: Angry Highlight reel for all of the Steelers. You're gonna

133
00:05:20,668 --> 00:05:23,188
Speaker 5: see Naji, You're gonna see Jalen Warren, You're gonna see

134
00:05:23,188 --> 00:05:26,388
Speaker 5: Pat Fryermuse just throwing people around. They had the most

135
00:05:26,388 --> 00:05:29,068
Speaker 5: nominations of any team all year. It was a wonderful year,

136
00:05:29,108 --> 00:05:31,708
Speaker 5: culminating with Naje winning Anger run at THEERET Dentical Honors.

137
00:05:32,028 --> 00:05:34,948
Speaker 5: Now you add in not only in Arthur Smith, Peter

138
00:05:35,228 --> 00:05:37,348
Speaker 5: a pissed off Arthur Smith, and I think pt Arthmith's

139
00:05:37,348 --> 00:05:39,788
Speaker 5: always pissed off, and.

140
00:05:39,908 --> 00:05:40,588
Speaker 10: Surly is the word.

141
00:05:40,668 --> 00:05:41,548
Speaker 7: I was gonna go ornery.

142
00:05:41,628 --> 00:05:44,148
Speaker 5: Surly is better. I also would say this to people

143
00:05:44,228 --> 00:05:46,748
Speaker 5: in Atlanta hahaha. There are certain coaches I call it

144
00:05:46,788 --> 00:05:49,748
Speaker 5: the North Turner Club, who are wonderful offensive coordinators and

145
00:05:49,788 --> 00:05:51,428
Speaker 5: maybe the head coach thing just doesn't work out.

146
00:05:51,748 --> 00:05:53,108
Speaker 7: Arthur Smith might be that guy.

147
00:05:53,188 --> 00:05:56,268
Speaker 5: He is a North South coordinator who has North South weapons.

148
00:05:56,428 --> 00:05:58,068
Speaker 5: I think Justin Fields is gonna be on the field

149
00:05:58,108 --> 00:06:00,548
Speaker 5: a lot. He's another guy who's gonna run it. I

150
00:06:00,628 --> 00:06:03,068
Speaker 5: do not think they're gonna go some sort of shock

151
00:06:03,108 --> 00:06:04,868
Speaker 5: and awe air assault with the Steelers this year. I

152
00:06:04,868 --> 00:06:07,428
Speaker 5: think they're gonna be the hardest running, most often running.

153
00:06:07,628 --> 00:06:09,988
Speaker 5: Jalen Horn is a joke. Jrner get a seal tall,

154
00:06:10,068 --> 00:06:12,588
Speaker 5: My guys, there is there is clips coming to Jailen

155
00:06:12,588 --> 00:06:14,508
Speaker 5: warf for training camp in pass pro where he is

156
00:06:14,588 --> 00:06:16,308
Speaker 5: destroying his own teammates.

157
00:06:16,348 --> 00:06:16,628
Speaker 11: This one.

158
00:06:16,668 --> 00:06:18,748
Speaker 7: Look at Nase his profuses to give up. We haven't

159
00:06:18,748 --> 00:06:19,868
Speaker 7: gotten a friar mouth yet.

160
00:06:20,308 --> 00:06:22,028
Speaker 2: This is my Point's Rudolph.

161
00:06:21,748 --> 00:06:22,388
Speaker 7: To see any love?

162
00:06:22,508 --> 00:06:27,348
Speaker 5: Sure, great, absolutely, just drink this in Steelers fans, Bengals fans,

163
00:06:27,348 --> 00:06:30,148
Speaker 5: Browns fans, everybody rage says laugh. If you want, here

164
00:06:30,228 --> 00:06:31,948
Speaker 5: comes friar mouth. Come on, Patt, he said, give me

165
00:06:31,988 --> 00:06:33,468
Speaker 5: the ball. I want to get a sept Let's see

166
00:06:33,468 --> 00:06:36,028
Speaker 5: at Pat Scott. Not bad pass, not bad at all.

167
00:06:36,308 --> 00:06:38,788
Speaker 5: This is Steeler football right now.

168
00:06:38,868 --> 00:06:39,428
Speaker 2: I love it.

169
00:06:39,508 --> 00:06:41,708
Speaker 5: I'd respect it. They will be in the playoffs next year.

170
00:06:41,748 --> 00:06:42,508
Speaker 5: I predict it every year.

171
00:06:42,588 --> 00:06:44,388
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know I agree with you because I mean,

172
00:06:44,428 --> 00:06:46,468
Speaker 8: I look at Jalen Warren. That's the one guy that

173
00:06:46,548 --> 00:06:51,468
Speaker 8: I'm super excited about, this marriage between Arthur Smith Jalen Warren.

174
00:06:52,068 --> 00:06:53,988
Speaker 8: When I look at that offense, the one thing that

175
00:06:54,028 --> 00:06:55,788
Speaker 8: stood out to me was the fact that he was

176
00:06:55,828 --> 00:06:59,588
Speaker 8: so explosive five point three yards per carrying. Every time

177
00:06:59,628 --> 00:07:01,708
Speaker 8: he got the ball, he just showed you what he

178
00:07:01,788 --> 00:07:04,268
Speaker 8: was working with. And you know, George Pickens talked about

179
00:07:04,268 --> 00:07:06,508
Speaker 8: He says, I think they asked him and he said,

180
00:07:06,548 --> 00:07:09,068
Speaker 8: I think this could be the most explosive team ever.

181
00:07:09,188 --> 00:07:11,108
Speaker 8: You know, at first I was like, I don't know,

182
00:07:11,188 --> 00:07:13,348
Speaker 8: I'm not feeling that. But then I started thinking about

183
00:07:13,348 --> 00:07:15,468
Speaker 8: it and thinking about last year. I'm like, you get

184
00:07:15,588 --> 00:07:17,668
Speaker 8: Arthur Smith, this new offense, and I know it didn't

185
00:07:17,668 --> 00:07:20,588
Speaker 8: do a lot, you know in Atlanta, you know, with

186
00:07:20,628 --> 00:07:23,028
Speaker 8: that offense. But I think when you get new weapons,

187
00:07:23,028 --> 00:07:25,748
Speaker 8: you get new pieces. I do believe that they could

188
00:07:25,788 --> 00:07:27,788
Speaker 8: be a very explosive team. George Pickens one of the

189
00:07:27,828 --> 00:07:30,668
Speaker 8: most explosive wide receivers in the NFL, and you get

190
00:07:30,748 --> 00:07:32,828
Speaker 8: him and Warren going at it. Man, I think this

191
00:07:32,868 --> 00:07:35,028
Speaker 8: could change things up for him. I think they go

192
00:07:35,068 --> 00:07:37,468
Speaker 8: from a ten win season last year, I think they

193
00:07:37,908 --> 00:07:41,268
Speaker 8: sneak into about twelve wins and hopefully go over into

194
00:07:41,308 --> 00:07:41,748
Speaker 8: the playoffs.

195
00:07:41,788 --> 00:07:45,028
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's big bump and a really good division. Peter,

196
00:07:45,068 --> 00:07:46,788
Speaker 3: you make a good point. I feel like I've been

197
00:07:46,828 --> 00:07:49,268
Speaker 3: on a wheel of emotions with Russell Wilson. You know,

198
00:07:49,348 --> 00:07:51,988
Speaker 3: at first, it was amazement when he started his career,

199
00:07:52,028 --> 00:07:54,828
Speaker 3: and then it was like confusion. Then I felt kind

200
00:07:54,828 --> 00:07:56,588
Speaker 3: of badly for him, and now I'm like swinging all

201
00:07:56,588 --> 00:07:58,188
Speaker 3: the way back around, like, how do I get back

202
00:07:58,228 --> 00:08:00,708
Speaker 3: to I'm amazed at what Russell Wilson is trying to do.

203
00:08:00,988 --> 00:08:02,748
Speaker 3: It made me think, let's go back to when we

204
00:08:02,788 --> 00:08:04,828
Speaker 3: loved what Russell Wilson was doing, and that was in

205
00:08:04,828 --> 00:08:07,828
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty season. We have a tape of throws

206
00:08:07,868 --> 00:08:10,588
Speaker 3: and runs. But Peter, it does make it does beg

207
00:08:10,628 --> 00:08:12,708
Speaker 3: the question as we sent it back out to just Camp,

208
00:08:12,708 --> 00:08:15,468
Speaker 3: Peter and Kyle, how do we get Russell back to

209
00:08:15,548 --> 00:08:18,348
Speaker 3: this point? Because I asked for best Russell Wilson and

210
00:08:18,388 --> 00:08:20,508
Speaker 3: it was this season and I got sent back three

211
00:08:20,588 --> 00:08:23,588
Speaker 3: throws in a run And typically with Russell Wilson, you'd think, oh,

212
00:08:23,628 --> 00:08:24,548
Speaker 3: it would be a tape.

213
00:08:24,308 --> 00:08:26,548
Speaker 4: Of him running all around, but it was. The ratio

214
00:08:26,668 --> 00:08:27,348
Speaker 4: is three to one.

215
00:08:27,868 --> 00:08:30,468
Speaker 3: So Peter, how do you think the Arthur Smith puzzle

216
00:08:30,508 --> 00:08:33,108
Speaker 3: piece works of the Russell Wilson game? And secondly, Kyle,

217
00:08:33,348 --> 00:08:35,308
Speaker 3: has Russell Wilson ever gotten angry runs?

218
00:08:35,428 --> 00:08:36,308
Speaker 12: No, m.

219
00:08:37,868 --> 00:08:40,628
Speaker 6: I look at DK, Metcalf and Locket and it's still

220
00:08:40,668 --> 00:08:43,708
Speaker 6: one of the best duos in the league and they're

221
00:08:43,748 --> 00:08:45,988
Speaker 6: going to be doing their thing in Seattle. Now you

222
00:08:46,028 --> 00:08:47,868
Speaker 6: look over here in Pittsburgh and I don't see that

223
00:08:47,988 --> 00:08:49,708
Speaker 6: receiver duo like I just don't.

224
00:08:49,788 --> 00:08:52,508
Speaker 7: So you wonder who's he throwing to now.

225
00:08:52,508 --> 00:08:55,548
Speaker 6: Pickens is an electric player. I just need Russ to

226
00:08:55,788 --> 00:08:59,228
Speaker 6: play within himself, which is such a backhanded compliment. No freestyle,

227
00:08:59,748 --> 00:09:02,028
Speaker 6: no willy nilly. Make the plays when you need him,

228
00:09:02,108 --> 00:09:04,268
Speaker 6: but don't try to be superman. I think that's a

229
00:09:04,468 --> 00:09:06,028
Speaker 6: hardest thing for some of these players is they get

230
00:09:06,068 --> 00:09:09,108
Speaker 6: into their mid thirties and you know Gino Smith is

231
00:09:09,108 --> 00:09:11,788
Speaker 6: going to have those guys in Seattle and Russell doesn't

232
00:09:11,828 --> 00:09:14,068
Speaker 6: have those guys in Pittsburgh. So to me, it's you know,

233
00:09:14,148 --> 00:09:15,988
Speaker 6: what can we do when we could play within yourself

234
00:09:15,988 --> 00:09:17,588
Speaker 6: and make the big plays because that fan base skin

235
00:09:17,628 --> 00:09:18,988
Speaker 6: of lifting and you got one of the best run games.

236
00:09:18,828 --> 00:09:20,428
Speaker 5: In the league. And I would say to your point, Peter,

237
00:09:20,508 --> 00:09:22,428
Speaker 5: I don't think you want Russell Wilson's to go for

238
00:09:22,468 --> 00:09:24,908
Speaker 5: angry runs this year. To answer your question, Jamie, he

239
00:09:25,068 --> 00:09:27,868
Speaker 5: is not. There is a list of anger runs winners

240
00:09:27,868 --> 00:09:30,028
Speaker 5: that might surprise you. And just off the top of

241
00:09:30,068 --> 00:09:32,428
Speaker 5: my head, sam Donold won angry runs here as a

242
00:09:32,468 --> 00:09:34,708
Speaker 5: New York Jet. It's an a sceptor pitch at this facility,

243
00:09:34,868 --> 00:09:36,388
Speaker 5: and a couple of years ago to a tongue by

244
00:09:36,428 --> 00:09:38,468
Speaker 5: low one. Angry runs, you lay lower his shoulder, ran

245
00:09:38,508 --> 00:09:39,548
Speaker 5: over somebody on the Browns.

246
00:09:39,548 --> 00:09:41,468
Speaker 7: I think you can google it, Russ.

247
00:09:41,508 --> 00:09:42,508
Speaker 2: It's possible he was.

248
00:09:42,468 --> 00:09:44,668
Speaker 5: Nominated, but I don't think so, and he's certainly never

249
00:09:44,748 --> 00:09:46,988
Speaker 5: won at this age. I would probably more likely go

250
00:09:47,028 --> 00:09:49,108
Speaker 5: with fields to win angry runs, but there's gonna be

251
00:09:49,108 --> 00:09:51,308
Speaker 5: a lot of them in Pittsburgh. I don't to Peter's point,

252
00:09:51,428 --> 00:09:54,828
Speaker 5: don't win angry runs, Russ. You win the FedEx Aaron ground.

253
00:09:54,428 --> 00:09:54,828
Speaker 2: One of those.

254
00:09:54,868 --> 00:09:56,508
Speaker 5: They don't give you a scepter, they give you a box.

255
00:09:56,708 --> 00:09:58,108
Speaker 7: But that's how we want to hear Kyle.

256
00:09:58,148 --> 00:10:00,668
Speaker 8: That's not in his calling cards anymore. I don't think

257
00:10:00,708 --> 00:10:01,628
Speaker 8: that that's the type of game.

258
00:10:01,868 --> 00:10:02,108
Speaker 7: I think.

259
00:10:02,188 --> 00:10:04,828
Speaker 8: You see older players, You see their games start to evolved.

260
00:10:04,868 --> 00:10:07,628
Speaker 8: As they start to mature. Their body starts to betray

261
00:10:07,668 --> 00:10:09,988
Speaker 8: them a little bit. You know, it doesn't move as

262
00:10:10,028 --> 00:10:12,628
Speaker 8: great as you thought you start. You know, rigidity starts

263
00:10:12,628 --> 00:10:14,308
Speaker 8: to set in, and all of a sudden, he's like,

264
00:10:14,308 --> 00:10:16,748
Speaker 8: all right, I better change this game up. Like Tiger Woods.

265
00:10:16,788 --> 00:10:19,068
Speaker 8: We've seen Tiger Woods change his gay. As that back

266
00:10:19,148 --> 00:10:21,148
Speaker 8: continues to get more and more stiff, we start to

267
00:10:21,148 --> 00:10:22,628
Speaker 8: see him change up his game. And I think that's

268
00:10:22,668 --> 00:10:24,988
Speaker 8: what Russell Wilson is. But I look at Russell Wilson,

269
00:10:25,028 --> 00:10:26,668
Speaker 8: I think, man, this dude has been around.

270
00:10:26,508 --> 00:10:26,988
Speaker 7: For a minute.

271
00:10:27,028 --> 00:10:28,948
Speaker 8: He's won at a high level. He knows what to

272
00:10:28,988 --> 00:10:31,108
Speaker 8: do now. I know, you know, and Peter, you talked

273
00:10:31,148 --> 00:10:34,268
Speaker 8: about this. He doesn't have Deontay Johnson on the other side. Right,

274
00:10:34,308 --> 00:10:36,428
Speaker 8: it's just Pickens. I think they're going to attack that

275
00:10:36,548 --> 00:10:39,148
Speaker 8: run game. They're gonna utilize and max out that run

276
00:10:39,228 --> 00:10:41,428
Speaker 8: game to be able to get Pickens and those guys

277
00:10:41,668 --> 00:10:43,948
Speaker 8: over the top and hit that that that passing game.

278
00:10:44,188 --> 00:10:46,948
Speaker 6: Deep, it's gonna be Steelers football. And that's what it is,

279
00:10:46,948 --> 00:10:48,468
Speaker 6: and it's and they're gonna lean into that.

280
00:10:49,588 --> 00:10:50,908
Speaker 5: I mean, that's Steelers football.

281
00:10:51,028 --> 00:10:52,908
Speaker 6: Might I know Akbar saying twelve and I love that,

282
00:10:53,068 --> 00:10:56,788
Speaker 6: and and that's that to take Cleveland's really good, then.

283
00:10:58,268 --> 00:10:58,748
Speaker 10: Is really good?

284
00:10:58,988 --> 00:11:01,108
Speaker 8: You disagree, Yeah, but that was a polite way of

285
00:11:01,148 --> 00:11:02,668
Speaker 8: saying you disagree with the twelve.

286
00:11:02,868 --> 00:11:04,308
Speaker 7: I'm not sure yet. To be honest, I'm not sure.

287
00:11:04,508 --> 00:11:05,748
Speaker 7: I want to see them in the preseason.

288
00:11:05,748 --> 00:11:08,308
Speaker 6: I want to finish training camp because it's a completely

289
00:11:08,308 --> 00:11:08,828
Speaker 6: new offense.

290
00:11:08,828 --> 00:11:09,668
Speaker 2: Peter's sensitive to.

291
00:11:09,788 --> 00:11:12,028
Speaker 5: Here's what, Okbar, He's looking out for you because about

292
00:11:12,028 --> 00:11:13,428
Speaker 5: a month from now, few weeks or not, when we

293
00:11:13,428 --> 00:11:15,908
Speaker 5: pick our playoff teams and our division winners, you are

294
00:11:15,908 --> 00:11:18,988
Speaker 5: on record as the Steelers potentially going to twelve wins,

295
00:11:18,988 --> 00:11:21,068
Speaker 5: which means like when we do the Brown segment, the

296
00:11:21,068 --> 00:11:23,108
Speaker 5: Bengal segment, we cannot be like I love them for

297
00:11:23,148 --> 00:11:23,868
Speaker 5: twelve wins too.

298
00:11:24,028 --> 00:11:25,108
Speaker 7: It all comes around.

299
00:11:25,148 --> 00:11:27,468
Speaker 5: So you are a Steelers guy this year, I think

300
00:11:27,468 --> 00:11:28,188
Speaker 5: you should feel.

301
00:11:28,028 --> 00:11:30,068
Speaker 6: Comfortable putting in a corner like that, Ocward.

302
00:11:30,228 --> 00:11:31,948
Speaker 7: That's the danger of doing it has for.

303
00:11:31,868 --> 00:11:34,548
Speaker 6: Four hours and doing it starting in July. You say

304
00:11:34,548 --> 00:11:36,308
Speaker 6: something like that, we got a pinion to it.

305
00:11:36,348 --> 00:11:38,588
Speaker 8: Hold on, do I have room for the Browns because

306
00:11:38,828 --> 00:11:41,388
Speaker 8: I'm actually more higher on the Browns than I am.

307
00:11:41,428 --> 00:11:42,868
Speaker 12: The Steelers can't like it.

308
00:11:43,388 --> 00:11:49,308
Speaker 5: I like it? Okay, ye, seven playoff teams right back now?

309
00:11:49,348 --> 00:11:50,548
Speaker 2: I got it for the Browns.

310
00:11:50,748 --> 00:11:54,148
Speaker 6: Brown there and fifty six games they can all be.

311
00:11:54,228 --> 00:11:57,148
Speaker 5: Basically, Ochbar just said he hates the Bengals and Ravens

312
00:11:57,148 --> 00:11:57,468
Speaker 5: this year.

313
00:11:57,508 --> 00:11:58,188
Speaker 7: You're out on them.

314

00:16:41,908 --> 00:16:42,508
Speaker 6: pivotal year.

440
00:16:42,948 --> 00:16:44,908

00:16:44,988 --> 00:16:48,108
Speaker 12: Saua is a very passionate person. He's very energetic. He's

442
00:16:48,188 --> 00:16:50,468
Speaker 12: he loves a game, so he really bleeds that into us,

443
00:16:50,508 --> 00:16:52,108
Speaker 12: and he wants us to care about the little things

444
00:16:52,148 --> 00:16:54,028
Speaker 12: like love and regard for each other, Like how are

445
00:16:54,028 --> 00:16:55,668
Speaker 12: you gonna fight for your teammate in the fourth quarter?

446
00:16:55,908 --> 00:16:57,188
Speaker 12: Like how are you gonna show up with with the

447
00:16:57,228 --> 00:16:59,468
Speaker 12: little details? Are the receivers in a block down the

448
00:16:59,468 --> 00:17:02,988
Speaker 12: field on long runs, the receivers in a show full

449
00:17:03,028 --> 00:17:05,228
Speaker 12: speed on certain routes to get other open, like certain

450
00:17:05,228 --> 00:17:07,348
Speaker 12: things like that, to really be a team, because this

451
00:17:07,388 --> 00:17:09,828
Speaker 12: game is really hard right now, everyone's saying the same

452
00:17:09,828 --> 00:17:12,268
Speaker 12: thing super Bowl champs. Details, But what is really going

453
00:17:12,268 --> 00:17:13,588
Speaker 12: to separate you? And I think that's that love him

454
00:17:13,588 --> 00:17:15,788
Speaker 12: regard for each other that he consistently preaches to us.

455
00:17:15,948 --> 00:17:17,348

00:17:50,188 --> 00:17:50,748
Speaker 2: He looks like you.

472
00:17:51,468 --> 00:17:53,188
Speaker 12: I mean walking in this morning? You know who's in

473
00:17:53,188 --> 00:17:56,148
Speaker 12: the weight room, coach Ola, what's he doing? I mean

474
00:17:56,148 --> 00:17:58,308
Speaker 12: I saw him doing the shoulder raises. But I mean

475
00:17:58,348 --> 00:18:00,828
Speaker 12: I'm talking. I'm talking about what time is that six?

476
00:18:02,428 --> 00:18:02,628
Speaker 11: Yeah?

477
00:18:02,628 --> 00:18:04,548
Speaker 12: But I think he kind of influences the coaches being

478
00:18:04,548 --> 00:18:06,028
Speaker 12: there too. Sometimes you see a lot of the coaches

479
00:18:06,028 --> 00:18:07,948
Speaker 12: in they're lifting, so I think the whole squad is

480
00:18:07,988 --> 00:18:08,988
Speaker 12: kind of, you know, trying to get some of that

481
00:18:09,108 --> 00:18:10,108
Speaker 12: you know, coach Solid in them.

482
00:18:10,148 --> 00:18:12,108
Speaker 5: We asked them, We're like, coach, like, is there is

483
00:18:12,148 --> 00:18:13,348
Speaker 5: there a supplement you can suggest?

484
00:18:13,388 --> 00:18:13,908
Speaker 7: When he goes?

485
00:18:14,028 --> 00:18:20,428
Speaker 5: He's all I take is phwing.

486
00:18:17,828 --> 00:18:19,188
Speaker 2: It pure hard work.

487
00:18:20,588 --> 00:18:21,068
Speaker 10: Yeah.

488
00:18:21,148 --> 00:18:23,988
Speaker 5: I mean to play for a guy who's that committed

489
00:18:24,028 --> 00:18:25,948
Speaker 5: physically when he doesn't even have to be, that must

490
00:18:25,988 --> 00:18:26,988
Speaker 5: motivate you in a different way.

491
00:18:27,068 --> 00:18:28,788
Speaker 12: I mean it does. You see a coach and they're working,

492
00:18:28,868 --> 00:18:30,948
Speaker 12: I mean getting after it. You know, you have no

493
00:18:30,988 --> 00:18:32,548
Speaker 12: excuse not to be and there doing the same thing,

494
00:18:32,588 --> 00:18:32,788
Speaker 12: you know.

495
00:18:33,548 --> 00:18:36,468
Speaker 6: Okay, so going from the weight room and Salah to

496
00:18:36,548 --> 00:18:40,988
Speaker 6: a totally different stage. I'm sitting there, Kyle knows, I'm

497
00:18:40,988 --> 00:18:41,828
Speaker 6: a Broadway guy.

498
00:18:42,268 --> 00:18:44,748
Speaker 7: The middle of June, I've got it on. I'm like,

499
00:18:44,948 --> 00:18:46,348
Speaker 7: the outsider is gonna win this year.

500
00:18:46,428 --> 00:18:47,868
Speaker 2: I'm watching it in the.

501
00:18:48,108 --> 00:18:50,508
Speaker 6: Solomon Thomas presenting a Tony Award.

502
00:18:50,548 --> 00:18:50,988
Speaker 7: What was that?

503
00:18:51,108 --> 00:18:51,188
Speaker 12: Like?

504
00:18:51,228 --> 00:18:51,948
Speaker 7: How'd that come to be?

505
00:18:52,348 --> 00:18:54,228
Speaker 12: That was like one of the coolest experiences in the world.

506
00:18:54,428 --> 00:18:56,188
Speaker 12: I have to shout out, you know, Jack Upton, Ellie

507
00:18:56,428 --> 00:18:58,908
Speaker 12: Eli Kaplan at Cia for really making that happen. It's

508
00:18:58,948 --> 00:19:04,068
Speaker 12: all my Broadway people. But to be a really do

509
00:19:04,188 --> 00:19:05,668
Speaker 12: just to be a part of their special night really

510
00:19:05,708 --> 00:19:07,228
Speaker 12: meant the world to me. They work so hard, they're

511
00:19:07,268 --> 00:19:09,268
Speaker 12: so talented. There's some of the most special people in

512
00:19:09,268 --> 00:19:10,908
Speaker 12: the world to me, So to be there and to

513
00:19:10,948 --> 00:19:12,628
Speaker 12: be able to present with Nate was it was. It

514
00:19:12,668 --> 00:19:16,348
Speaker 12: was so cool And I love those people, you know,

515
00:19:16,628 --> 00:19:18,868
Speaker 12: I think there's so much that relates from Broadway to football.

516
00:19:18,868 --> 00:19:21,188
Speaker 12: You know that that mental aspect. They perform eight shows

517
00:19:21,188 --> 00:19:23,468
Speaker 12: a week. To me, that's like doing eight games a week,

518
00:19:23,468 --> 00:19:25,028
Speaker 12: and then how to be in that focus, like when

519
00:19:25,028 --> 00:19:27,468
Speaker 12: things go wrong, how to keep going, how to be present,

520
00:19:27,508 --> 00:19:28,908
Speaker 12: and how to you know, feed off of each other.

521
00:19:28,948 --> 00:19:30,948
Speaker 12: It's like a family back there. But you know, I've

522
00:19:30,988 --> 00:19:32,788
Speaker 12: learned a lot from you know, my Broadway people got

523
00:19:32,788 --> 00:19:35,708
Speaker 12: a shot out my guy who q Coles from Back

524
00:19:35,748 --> 00:19:37,788
Speaker 12: to the Future. He really teaches me a lot about

525
00:19:37,948 --> 00:19:41,588
Speaker 12: the football theater relationship. We keep in touch and he

526
00:19:41,628 --> 00:19:43,428
Speaker 12: and he teaches me certain things, like he was like,

527
00:19:43,628 --> 00:19:45,228
Speaker 12: you know, every time I go out on the show,

528
00:19:45,268 --> 00:19:47,468
Speaker 12: I have to make their audience believe something that isn't

529
00:19:47,508 --> 00:19:49,468
Speaker 12: real is real. And like, you know, he was teaching

530
00:19:49,508 --> 00:19:50,988
Speaker 12: me like that, how I can do that in football,

531
00:19:50,988 --> 00:19:53,028
Speaker 12: and like how I can sell that passion, How I

532
00:19:53,028 --> 00:19:55,268
Speaker 12: can sell like you know, certain moves and stuff like that,

533
00:19:55,348 --> 00:19:57,028
Speaker 12: and and and just to be present and to be

534
00:19:57,548 --> 00:20:00,388
Speaker 12: give myself all for each play or each game. And

535
00:20:00,428 --> 00:20:02,268
Speaker 12: you know, I love those guys. They really mean a

536
00:20:02,268 --> 00:20:03,708
Speaker 12: lot to me. And I love my Broadway community.

537
00:20:03,748 --> 00:20:05,868

541

Speaker 7: no doubt.

542
00:20:13,588 --> 00:20:15,028
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean it's a one percent of the world

543
00:20:15,148 --> 00:20:18,348
Speaker 12: doing that and they work relentlessly and it is it

544
00:20:18,428 --> 00:20:20,868
Speaker 12: is crazy. They it's a year long. They get like

545
00:20:21,028 --> 00:20:24,068
Speaker 12: fourteen days off for eight shows a week. It is

546
00:20:24,148 --> 00:20:26,828

Speaker 12: They're they're really special people. Incredible.

555
00:20:43,988 --> 00:20:46,548

558
00:20:52,108 --> 00:20:54,348
Speaker 5: a lot of theatricality with the bills too. I think

559
00:20:54,348 --> 00:20:56,588
Speaker 5: particularly you guys. As a d line guy, I look

560
00:20:56,628 --> 00:20:59,548
Speaker 5: at the bills on line. There's a guy there, it's huge, dude.

Speaker 5: I'm not off books. Sorry, everybody. This is on the jets.

566
00:21:14,188 --> 00:21:17,028
Speaker 5: I hate them, all of them. There's people who play

567
00:21:17,028 --> 00:21:18,868
Speaker 5: the sport because they love the sport, and there's people

568
00:21:18,868 --> 00:21:20,308
Speaker 5: who play the sport just to be cool.

569
00:21:20,588 --> 00:21:21,748
Speaker 1: Those are a bunch of guys.

570
00:21:21,548 --> 00:21:24,748
Speaker 5: Who just want to take pictures on Ig. That's whack. Now,

571
00:21:24,748 --> 00:21:28,668
Speaker 5: that's Deon Dawkins. That's his monologue. Then you come on stage,

572
00:21:28,748 --> 00:21:30,948
Speaker 5: you get your spot, Like, what's your response as your

573
00:21:31,028 --> 00:21:32,228
Speaker 5: character on the Broadway stage.

574
00:21:32,268 --> 00:21:34,188
Speaker 12: I'm a Broadway stage. I'm more of a person who

575
00:21:34,228 --> 00:21:36,548
Speaker 12: acts to let my play do the talking. I do

576
00:21:36,588 --> 00:21:38,348
Speaker 12: think it's interesting a guy telling us that, you know,

577
00:21:38,388 --> 00:21:40,588
Speaker 12: we like to take Ig pictures when he's on podcasts

579
00:21:43,308 --> 00:21:45,908
Speaker 12: you know that's interesting. But that's just my opinion. But

580
00:21:45,948 --> 00:21:47,348
Speaker 12: I'm a guy who you know, we'll see him a

594
00:22:09,348 --> 00:22:11,548
Speaker 12: a lot of work. We go around a certain schools, businesses,

595
00:22:11,548 --> 00:22:14,668
Speaker 12: and you know, we teach teachers, coaches, anyone, mentor of

596

Speaker 12: youth how to you know, really be equipped with mental health,

597
00:22:17,108 --> 00:22:18,708
Speaker 12: how to teach our students, how to take care of them,

598
00:22:18,788 --> 00:22:20,868
Speaker 12: how to create an environment where everyone could be safe,

599
00:22:20,868 --> 00:22:22,708
Speaker 12: you know, connecting with their local resources and know where

600
00:22:22,748 --> 00:22:25,748
Speaker 12: therapy is, counseling, meditation, journaling, whatever it is that you

601
00:22:25,788 --> 00:22:28,628
Speaker 12: need to keep people here. I've been very fortunate my

602
00:22:28,708 --> 00:22:30,988
Speaker 12: life to learn from you know, my sister dying by

603
00:22:30,988 --> 00:22:33,428
Speaker 12: suicide and learn how to you know, and going through

604
00:22:33,428 --> 00:22:35,508
Speaker 12: my own mental journey and being in a dark place

605
00:22:35,508 --> 00:22:37,788
Speaker 12: and getting out of the dark place from therapy. So

606
00:22:37,828 --> 00:22:39,348
Speaker 12: I go around like letting people know it's okay not

607
00:22:39,428 --> 00:22:41,108
Speaker 12: to be okay, that you know, it's okay to get help.

608
00:22:41,308 --> 00:22:43,108
Speaker 12: Getting help is the most you know, courageous thing you

609
00:22:43,108 --> 00:22:45,108
Speaker 12: can do for yourself. So every day, you know, I'm

610
00:22:45,148 --> 00:22:46,948
Speaker 12: trying to live a life to encourage people to to

611
00:22:46,988 --> 00:22:49,068
Speaker 12: be here, to stay here. And suicide is the most

612
00:22:49,108 --> 00:22:51,028
Speaker 12: parentable death, but people are afraid to talk about it.

613
00:22:51,188 --> 00:22:52,868
Speaker 12: But in the end of the day, like everyone is

614
00:22:52,868 --> 00:22:55,108
Speaker 12: going through it, and it is so important to be

615
00:22:55,188 --> 00:22:58,028
Speaker 12: vulnerable to understand that is strength to make sure we

616
00:22:58,068 --> 00:23:00,268
Speaker 12: create an environment where people can have safe places, can

617
00:23:00,268 --> 00:23:02,108
Speaker 12: stay here and be here. It's one of the greatest

618
00:23:02,108 --> 00:23:03,948
Speaker 12: responsibilities in my life to be a mentalth advocate, to

619
00:23:03,948 --> 00:23:06,668
Speaker 12: go around the world talking about this work because there's not

620
00:23:06,788 --> 00:23:09,268
Speaker 12: enough men who do it. There's enough people who do

621
00:23:09,268 --> 00:23:11,868
Speaker 12: it who look like me, who are big, strong players

622
00:23:11,868 --> 00:23:14,548
Speaker 12: who you know, I'm a sensitive person, I go through depression,

623
00:23:14,588 --> 00:23:16,388
Speaker 12: i go through anxiety. I've been through hard times. Do

624
00:23:16,468 --> 00:23:18,268
Speaker 12: I understand that's okay? Like, we don't have to live

625
00:23:18,308 --> 00:23:20,388
Speaker 12: this life where you know, everything is like you all

626
00:23:20,468 --> 00:23:23,068
Speaker 12: highlight social media, you know all good like life is

627
00:23:23,068 --> 00:23:24,908
Speaker 12: about the ups and downs, It's about the sad times.

628
00:23:25,188 --> 00:23:26,788
Speaker 12: We can realize that you can be sad and you

629
00:23:26,828 --> 00:23:28,748
Speaker 12: can be anxious and still have a good day, and

630
00:23:28,828 --> 00:23:30,788
Speaker 12: I understand that you're not crazy for that. You know,

631
00:23:30,908 --> 00:23:32,988
Speaker 12: that's when you understand the real beauty of life.

632
00:23:33,748 --> 00:23:35,588
Speaker 2: Beautiful, beautiful. We love you, man.

633
00:23:36,388 --> 00:23:38,308
Speaker 4: This is GMF. That's okbar. I'm Jamie.

634
00:23:38,388 --> 00:23:40,588
Speaker 3: One of those old faces in a new place is

635
00:23:40,588 --> 00:23:43,108
Speaker 3: Stefon Diggs. He was just mentioned. He's in Houston now

636
00:23:43,148 --> 00:23:45,508
Speaker 3: with CJ. Stroud and the Texans. The Texans have had

637
00:23:45,508 --> 00:23:46,828
Speaker 3: a week though, because they played in the Hall of

638
00:23:46,908 --> 00:23:49,628
Speaker 3: Fame game and then Damiko Ryan's and the organization decide

639
00:23:49,668 --> 00:23:54,468
Speaker 3: to stay in Ohio to attend Saturday's enshrinement ceremony to

640
00:23:54,508 --> 00:23:57,908
Speaker 3: celebrate and Andre Johnson the first player in the organization's

641
00:23:57,948 --> 00:24:00,468
Speaker 3: history to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. So

642
00:24:00,588 --> 00:24:04,228
Speaker 3: now they're practicing outside of Cleveland until their next preseason

643
00:24:04,228 --> 00:24:08,308
Speaker 3: game Friday against the Steelers. That being said, time now

644
00:24:08,348 --> 00:24:10,628
Speaker 3: to check in with Steve Wisch and Brian Baldinger. They're

645
00:24:10,628 --> 00:24:14,028
Speaker 3: with the Texans, guys. This is kind of a big decision.

646
00:24:14,068 --> 00:24:16,188
Speaker 3: I know teams go away for training camp a times,

647
00:24:16,268 --> 00:24:18,668
Speaker 3: but for Damiko Ryans to make this kind of commitment

648
00:24:18,948 --> 00:24:20,948
Speaker 3: for the team to stay in Ohio, what does that

649
00:24:21,028 --> 00:24:21,788
Speaker 3: say about them?

650
00:24:22,188 --> 00:24:23,068
Speaker 2: Well, Jamie real quick.

651
00:24:23,068 --> 00:24:25,948
Speaker 15: We were at the University school in suburban Cleveland, and

652
00:24:26,068 --> 00:24:30,028
Speaker 15: this is where Jason Garrett and Texans general manager Nick

653
00:24:30,068 --> 00:24:31,748
Speaker 15: Kosario went to high school.

654
00:24:31,948 --> 00:24:33,308
Speaker 2: So you see the field behind us.

655
00:24:33,428 --> 00:24:36,988
Speaker 15: The Texans actually built this and donated it and procured

656
00:24:36,988 --> 00:24:38,508
Speaker 15: it for the high school's kind of a gift for

657
00:24:38,588 --> 00:24:41,548
Speaker 15: letting them practice here, Baldy. But look at for Jamie's question.

658
00:24:41,628 --> 00:24:43,348
Speaker 15: You know, for Jamiko Ryan to have the faith in

659
00:24:43,388 --> 00:24:44,988
Speaker 15: his team to keep them away from home so long.

660
00:24:44,908 --> 00:24:47,428
Speaker 16: Well, he really speaks value about the maturity of the

661
00:24:47,468 --> 00:24:50,268
Speaker 16: team and the trust because a lot of these players

662
00:24:50,308 --> 00:24:53,148
Speaker 16: are away from camp, away from home in Ohio on

663
00:24:53,188 --> 00:24:56,748
Speaker 16: the road for ten days, and so I've been one

664
00:24:56,748 --> 00:24:58,668
Speaker 16: of those young guys in the training camp, Steve. You

665
00:24:58,708 --> 00:25:00,908
Speaker 16: know it's hard to like, Okay, it's curfew, like turn

666
00:25:00,988 --> 00:25:03,268
Speaker 16: off the lights like you know, it's wake up call,

667
00:25:03,388 --> 00:25:04,908
Speaker 16: like you know, you've got to try still, lot of

668
00:25:04,948 --> 00:25:07,548
Speaker 16: young guys to be able to behave And I think

669
00:25:07,828 --> 00:25:10,908
Speaker 16: it says that Demiko feels like he can really trust

670
00:25:10,948 --> 00:25:12,988
Speaker 16: these guys to be able to do this and stay

671
00:25:12,988 --> 00:25:14,268
Speaker 16: on the road and get to work done.

672
00:25:14,268 --> 00:25:16,468
Speaker 2: Today's going to be acting a practice, yeah, like during.

673
00:25:16,348 --> 00:25:19,028
Speaker 16: Full pads first time since the Hall of Fame game

674
00:25:19,068 --> 00:25:19,788
Speaker 16: on Thursday night.

675
00:25:19,908 --> 00:25:20,068
Speaker 2: Yeah.

676
00:25:20,148 --> 00:25:22,268
Speaker 15: Nick Casaria, the general manager, spoke this before that game

677
00:25:22,308 --> 00:25:23,948
Speaker 15: Thursday night. He said, the first couple of days of

678
00:25:23,948 --> 00:25:26,028
Speaker 15: the week, they're gonna get after it. They'll tape it

679
00:25:26,068 --> 00:25:28,468
Speaker 15: down so they can get everything ready for a Friday's

680
00:25:28,468 --> 00:25:30,588
Speaker 15: preseason game. And guys, can you imagine a young Baldy

681
00:25:30,628 --> 00:25:31,788
Speaker 15: a training camp remote?

682
00:25:34,628 --> 00:25:34,708
Speaker 5: Right?

683
00:25:34,868 --> 00:25:37,188
Speaker 16: I just look, I'm just a ping pong player, a Bar.

684
00:25:37,588 --> 00:25:39,508
Speaker 16: I'm a ping pong guy. I'd be winning. I'd be

685
00:25:39,548 --> 00:25:40,708
Speaker 16: winning every single tournament.

686
00:25:40,988 --> 00:25:42,148
Speaker 7: Yeah, I can see.

687
00:25:42,228 --> 00:25:44,988
Speaker 8: I can see you're getting into good, good trouble there, Baldi.

688
00:25:45,308 --> 00:25:47,708
Speaker 8: But you know, hey, this team took a giant step

689
00:25:47,748 --> 00:25:50,908
Speaker 8: forward last season. Then in the off season they made

690
00:25:51,108 --> 00:25:55,108
Speaker 8: some roster changes. What stands out to you about those changes?

691
00:25:55,188 --> 00:25:57,348
Speaker 8: And are are they upgrades? In your opinion?

692
00:25:57,708 --> 00:25:58,028
Speaker 7: They are?

693
00:25:58,108 --> 00:25:58,428
Speaker 2: Akbar?

694
00:25:58,548 --> 00:26:00,348
Speaker 16: I mean this is they got a lot of blue

695
00:26:00,428 --> 00:26:01,988
Speaker 16: like you know, you look at a roster like, who

696
00:26:02,028 --> 00:26:03,308
Speaker 16: are your blue chip players?

697
00:26:03,628 --> 00:26:05,788
Speaker 2: Well, here comes to Diggs. I mean the all day

698
00:26:05,908 --> 00:26:06,308
Speaker 2: was help.

699
00:26:06,268 --> 00:26:09,428
Speaker 16: Lead the Buffalo Bills to four straight division titles in

700
00:26:09,468 --> 00:26:12,028
Speaker 16: the afcas look at Daniel Hunter coming off maybe his

701
00:26:12,148 --> 00:26:14,908
Speaker 16: best season ever last year, and he's a Houston kid,

702
00:26:14,948 --> 00:26:16,988
Speaker 16: went to Katie High School. Like he's back in Houston.

703
00:26:17,028 --> 00:26:19,948
Speaker 16: He turned down other offers to come play here. You

704
00:26:20,028 --> 00:26:22,188
Speaker 16: look at you know, Tank Dell coming back from that

705
00:26:22,308 --> 00:26:25,228
Speaker 16: injury last year, their third round pick from the University

706
00:26:25,228 --> 00:26:27,428
Speaker 16: of Houston. You look at you know what they've got

707
00:26:27,468 --> 00:26:29,428
Speaker 16: with Joe Mixon in the backfield right now.

708
00:26:29,788 --> 00:26:32,868
Speaker 2: I feel like this roster has been upgraded throughout this.

709
00:26:32,828 --> 00:26:35,468
Speaker 16: Offense and defense this year to go with what we

710
00:26:35,548 --> 00:26:38,748
Speaker 16: saw the offensive rookie year, the defensive rookie the year

711
00:26:38,748 --> 00:26:42,228
Speaker 16: and CJ. Stroud and Will Anderson. This is a very

712
00:26:42,268 --> 00:26:45,628
Speaker 16: talented roster and I think they've only upgraded it this offseason.

713
00:26:45,628 --> 00:26:48,068
Speaker 15: And the sleeper acquisition Baldy as he's al Shai here,

714
00:26:48,148 --> 00:26:50,548
Speaker 15: the linebacker coming over from Tennessee who was in San

715
00:26:50,588 --> 00:26:53,948
Speaker 15: Francisco with Demico Ryans for a long time. But look,

716
00:26:53,988 --> 00:26:56,668
Speaker 15: you mentioned Joe Mixon. We saw Thursday night. We have

717
00:26:56,748 --> 00:26:58,588
Speaker 15: heard about this. Detecans are going to be working to

718
00:26:58,668 --> 00:27:00,748
Speaker 15: upgrade their run game. Last year they are around twenty

719
00:27:00,748 --> 00:27:03,188
Speaker 15: four to twenty five in the NFL and rushing. So

720
00:27:03,228 --> 00:27:06,108
Speaker 15: they get Joe Mixon, They've got Damian Pierce. We saw

721
00:27:06,228 --> 00:27:10,268
Speaker 15: Daria Oginbawalle really lighted up in the Hall of Fame game,

722
00:27:10,468 --> 00:27:12,428
Speaker 15: but also cam Akers and this is the guy coming

723
00:27:12,468 --> 00:27:15,508
Speaker 15: off of two Achilles tendon injuries. The Texans are giving

724
00:27:15,548 --> 00:27:17,508
Speaker 15: him a shot to make the roster, and he really

725
00:27:17,508 --> 00:27:20,148
Speaker 15: acquitted himself well when he got some reps Thursday night.

726
00:27:20,188 --> 00:27:20,948
Speaker 2: Now, I thought so too.

727
00:27:21,148 --> 00:27:22,868
Speaker 16: Yeah, and you know, he popped a few runs, scored

728
00:27:22,908 --> 00:27:25,148
Speaker 16: a touchdown, But I thought, you know, some of their

729
00:27:25,188 --> 00:27:28,148
Speaker 16: young offensive lineman, Juice Scruggs got out there.

730
00:27:28,228 --> 00:27:30,748
Speaker 2: You know, he got a chance. Kenyon Green, former first

731
00:27:30,828 --> 00:27:31,268
Speaker 2: round pick.

732
00:27:31,348 --> 00:27:33,788
Speaker 16: You know this Blake Fisher, their second round pick from

733
00:27:33,828 --> 00:27:36,108
Speaker 16: Notre Dame, played left tackle, look pretty good in there.

734
00:27:36,108 --> 00:27:38,508
Speaker 2: So they they're developing some depth up there right.

735
00:27:38,428 --> 00:27:41,508
Speaker 16: Now, Steve to go with obviously, the Laramie tumpsall is

736
00:27:41,548 --> 00:27:43,388
Speaker 16: any category almost by yourself right now.

737
00:27:43,468 --> 00:27:45,268
Speaker 2: I was about to say they're front line starters. You

738
00:27:45,268 --> 00:27:46,468
Speaker 2: didn't even mention any of them.

739
00:27:46,508 --> 00:27:47,628
Speaker 15: All right, We're going to send it back to you

740
00:27:47,708 --> 00:27:50,228
Speaker 15: guys here again from the home of Nicosario and Jason Garrett.

741
00:27:50,268 --> 00:27:51,588
Speaker 4: I love that little factoid too.

742
00:27:51,628 --> 00:27:53,508
Speaker 3: The high school is probably thrilled because when you write

743
00:27:53,588 --> 00:27:56,348
Speaker 3: notable alumni on a Wikipedia page from high school, like

744
00:27:56,428 --> 00:27:57,988
Speaker 3: this is where you're going to come full circle as

745
00:27:58,028 --> 00:27:59,668
Speaker 3: being able to Hey, can we borrow your high school

746
00:27:59,708 --> 00:28:02,188
Speaker 3: field for training camp for NFL team? It's no problem,

747
00:28:02,268 --> 00:28:05,108
Speaker 3: Steve Balti, thank you. You have to imagine that bolstering

748
00:28:05,108 --> 00:28:08,028
Speaker 3: and offensive line and advancing the run game.

749
00:28:07,908 --> 00:28:08,828
Speaker 4: Is music to c. J.

Speaker 17: it all worked out.

779
00:29:48,108 --> 00:29:49,308
Speaker 10: For him in the act.

780
00:29:49,628 --> 00:29:52,748
Speaker 14: I wanted to be a running back, but God plans

781
00:29:53,428 --> 00:29:55,748
Speaker 14: wasn't that for me. Sure, I might have been a

782
00:29:55,828 --> 00:29:58,428
Speaker 14: one hundred and seventy eighth best runner back in the

783
00:29:58,428 --> 00:30:01,148
Speaker 14: world or the two hundred and ninety seven best wide

784
00:30:01,188 --> 00:30:04,908
Speaker 14: receiving in the world. But instead I embraced God planned

785
00:30:04,908 --> 00:30:10,348
Speaker 14: for me, and mostly I accepted it. I accepted my calling.

786
00:30:13,428 --> 00:30:15,788
Speaker 14: I accepted my calling that God had in store for me,

787
00:30:16,668 --> 00:30:20,228
Speaker 14: and by me embracing it, it made me the best

788
00:30:20,228 --> 00:30:22,308
Speaker 14: returner to ever walked This face of the earth.

789
00:30:24,388 --> 00:30:24,588
Speaker 1: Well.

790
00:30:24,628 --> 00:30:27,988
Speaker 17: Hester also said he's not the only return specialist deserving

791
00:30:28,028 --> 00:30:29,708
Speaker 17: to be in the Hall of Fame. He hopes is

792
00:30:29,828 --> 00:30:32,308
Speaker 17: just opening the door for other guys like Brian Mitchell

793
00:30:32,668 --> 00:30:34,388
Speaker 17: and Josh Kratz. When you look at some of these

794
00:30:34,468 --> 00:30:36,508
Speaker 17: numbers that these guys have put up, this might be

795
00:30:36,548 --> 00:30:38,388
Speaker 17: the door cracking. You might see some more specialists in

796
00:30:38,468 --> 00:30:38,948
Speaker 17: yours to come.

797
00:30:39,068 --> 00:30:41,028
Speaker 3: But we love a confident man when it comes to

798
00:30:41,148 --> 00:30:45,828
Speaker 3: but I am the best specialist. That's true, He congratulates

799
00:30:45,828 --> 00:30:48,268
Speaker 3: as Devin Hester and the whole class of twenty twenty four.

800
00:30:48,588 --> 00:30:50,748
Speaker 4: We're going to welcome in Ron rivera now our head

00:30:50,748 --> 00:30:51,748
Speaker 4: coach at our table.

802
00:30:51,828 --> 00:30:55,868
Speaker 3: We love when coach comes, but specifically after this past weekend,

803
00:30:55,868 --> 00:30:57,868
Speaker 3: because we heard your name, we're going to play this now.

804
00:30:58,788 --> 00:31:01,428
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame speeches were on this past Saturday. Of course,

805
00:31:01,428 --> 00:31:04,268
Speaker 3: in Canton, Julius Peppers took the stage and thanked his coach.

806
00:31:04,508 --> 00:31:06,508
Speaker 4: Is that meant the most to him? Let's first take

807
00:31:06,548 --> 00:31:06,908
Speaker 4: a lesson.

808
00:31:08,108 --> 00:31:13,348
Speaker 11: I want to think my NFL coaches, John Fox, Levy Smith,

809
00:31:14,228 --> 00:31:18,548
Speaker 11: Mike McCarthy, and Ron River. Thanks to each one of

810
00:31:18,588 --> 00:31:21,348
Speaker 11: you and all of the men on your staffs. You

811
00:31:21,388 --> 00:31:24,428
Speaker 11: guys taught valuable lessons that went beyond the game, and

812
00:31:24,428 --> 00:31:26,708
Speaker 11: that's what I appreciate. That's what I appreciated the most.

813
00:31:27,188 --> 00:31:30,668
Speaker 11: So thank you for your time, your energy, and your sacrifices.

814
00:31:31,588 --> 00:31:33,588
Speaker 3: That's a great group to be a part of. Coach,

815
00:31:33,668 --> 00:31:35,748
Speaker 3: you made great players but also great men. You must

816
00:31:35,788 --> 00:31:37,028
Speaker 3: have taken a great compliment to that.

817
00:31:37,308 --> 00:31:37,908
Speaker 7: I really did.

818
00:31:37,948 --> 00:31:40,028
Speaker 18: And you know, the real special thing about Julius is

819
00:31:40,068 --> 00:31:41,388
Speaker 18: who he is as a young man, more so than

820
00:31:41,388 --> 00:31:43,748
Speaker 18: anything else. Unfortunately I got him at the end of

821
00:31:43,748 --> 00:31:45,508
Speaker 18: his career. I was able to bring him back and

822
00:31:45,588 --> 00:31:47,868
Speaker 18: let him finish in Carolina, and he did a great

823
00:31:47,908 --> 00:31:50,148
Speaker 18: job for us, and what a superhuman being. And I

824
00:31:50,148 --> 00:31:52,348
Speaker 18: would have been there except for I spent a little

825
00:31:52,348 --> 00:31:56,068
Speaker 18: time with Stevec Michael when when they you know, presented

826
00:31:56,068 --> 00:31:57,988
Speaker 18: his best at his house at his bedside.

827
00:31:58,268 --> 00:32:00,948
Speaker 8: Yeah and yeah, you just mentioned it. You're there in

828
00:32:00,988 --> 00:32:04,708
Speaker 8: Illinois with him, Like how what did he mean to you?

829
00:32:05,868 --> 00:32:09,028
Speaker 8: And just Chicago, the Bears, everyone.

830
00:32:09,308 --> 00:32:09,508
Speaker 7: You know.

831
00:32:09,668 --> 00:32:12,548
Speaker 18: The amazing thing about Steve is for how long he played.

832
00:32:12,588 --> 00:32:15,028
Speaker 18: You know, he had a fifteen year career. He played

833
00:32:15,068 --> 00:32:17,508
Speaker 18: one hundred and ninety two consecutive games, started over one

834
00:32:17,548 --> 00:32:20,668
Speaker 18: hundred games, as a player consecutive game. So he was

835
00:32:20,668 --> 00:32:21,988
Speaker 18: the heart and soul of who we were as a

836
00:32:21,988 --> 00:32:24,748
Speaker 18: football team. But more so anything else, he was a teammate,

837
00:32:24,868 --> 00:32:27,988
Speaker 18: a great friend, and just somebody that was truly deserving.

838
00:32:28,028 --> 00:32:29,748
Speaker 18: So I was very fortunate to have been part of

839
00:32:29,748 --> 00:32:32,628
Speaker 18: that and just to be there on Saturday morning when

840
00:32:32,628 --> 00:32:34,428
Speaker 18: he presented the bus while he was still you know,

841
00:32:34,468 --> 00:32:34,708
Speaker 18: he was.

842
00:32:34,668 --> 00:32:35,268
Speaker 7: Laying in his bed.

843
00:32:35,308 --> 00:32:39,268
Speaker 18: He's you know, unfortunately stricken with als. But just to

844
00:32:39,308 --> 00:32:41,268
Speaker 18: have the guys that were there, there was over twenty

845
00:32:41,268 --> 00:32:41,868
Speaker 18: of us that were there.

846
00:32:42,188 --> 00:32:43,428
Speaker 7: It was a great time. It really was.

847
00:32:43,468 --> 00:32:46,388
Speaker 8: Did you feel that he felt the moment? He you

848
00:32:46,428 --> 00:32:49,388
Speaker 8: know that he was aware the love, the outpour all

849
00:32:49,428 --> 00:32:49,628
Speaker 8: of that.

850
00:32:49,828 --> 00:32:51,028
Speaker 7: You could see it in his eyes.

851
00:32:51,428 --> 00:32:53,628
Speaker 18: His eyes would light up and you see the grin

852
00:32:53,708 --> 00:32:56,908
Speaker 18: come out, and it was really truly an emotional time.

853
00:32:56,908 --> 00:32:58,108
Speaker 7: It really was. It was very special.

854
00:32:58,228 --> 00:32:58,388
Speaker 12: Yeah.

855
00:32:58,468 --> 00:33:01,228
Speaker 3: So of course Evehn Michael, his family has been representing

856
00:33:01,308 --> 00:33:03,188
Speaker 3: him all along in this journey, ever since we saw

857
00:33:03,188 --> 00:33:05,428
Speaker 3: the class come out of the State Jennifer Honors and

858
00:33:05,428 --> 00:33:08,588
Speaker 3: then up until this point. But let's just have a

859
00:33:08,628 --> 00:33:11,668
Speaker 3: refresher for those who were maybe not fans of the

860
00:33:11,708 --> 00:33:14,028
Speaker 3: Bears in the mid eighties. Just a little take us

861
00:33:14,028 --> 00:33:16,148
Speaker 3: through who Stephen McMichael was and why he is this

862
00:33:16,228 --> 00:33:17,148
Speaker 3: person now we're seeing.

863
00:33:17,308 --> 00:33:19,708
Speaker 18: Well, you know, it's interesting because everybody talks about, you know,

864
00:33:19,788 --> 00:33:22,388
Speaker 18: the other three guys on the defense that were in

865
00:33:22,428 --> 00:33:25,388
Speaker 18: the Hall of Fame and Richard Denhampton and Mike Singletary.

866
00:33:25,708 --> 00:33:27,628
Speaker 18: But this guy was the lynch pin. I mean, he

867
00:33:27,668 --> 00:33:29,748
Speaker 18: did the dirty work. He was the guy that enabled

868
00:33:29,788 --> 00:33:32,788
Speaker 18: guys to have, you know, some success, some success because

869
00:33:33,148 --> 00:33:36,508
Speaker 18: he did those things and again he made everybody around

870
00:33:36,588 --> 00:33:37,068
Speaker 18: him better.

871
00:33:37,108 --> 00:33:38,668
Speaker 7: And that's, I think is why he's so special.

872
00:33:38,988 --> 00:33:41,548
Speaker 4: That's awesome. These guys definitely deserving of it.

873
00:33:41,588 --> 00:33:43,588
Speaker 17: But Coach, when you look at the guys who are

874
00:33:43,588 --> 00:33:45,508
Speaker 17: now no longer in the league, is there anyone else

875
00:33:45,748 --> 00:33:47,788
Speaker 17: you think that should be enshrined in the Hall of Fame?

876
00:33:47,988 --> 00:33:48,548
Speaker 17: Who tops that.

877
00:33:48,548 --> 00:33:48,948
Speaker 4: List for you?

878
00:33:49,028 --> 00:33:50,268
Speaker 7: Well, to me, it's Jim Plunkett.

879
00:33:50,308 --> 00:33:52,348
Speaker 18: You know, here's a guy that was two time Super

880
00:33:52,348 --> 00:33:54,388
Speaker 18: Bowl champion, super Bowl MVP.

881
00:33:55,308 --> 00:33:57,948
Speaker 7: You know, I know, his his one lost record isn't great.

882
00:33:57,988 --> 00:33:59,948
Speaker 18: But the big thing about Jim Morris anything else is

883
00:34:00,188 --> 00:34:01,948
Speaker 18: during the opportunity he had, he.

884
00:34:01,988 --> 00:34:02,908
Speaker 7: Made the most of it.

885
00:34:03,268 --> 00:34:06,308
Speaker 18: I Mean, the the Raiders were the only winning team

886
00:34:06,308 --> 00:34:08,348
Speaker 18: he played for, and during that period he was a

887
00:34:08,348 --> 00:34:10,908
Speaker 18: guy that kind of brought them rallied them together and

888
00:34:10,948 --> 00:34:14,348
Speaker 18: took them to two two Super Bowls in the early eighties,

889
00:34:14,388 --> 00:34:17,108
Speaker 18: and again he did it and came back and was

890
00:34:17,228 --> 00:34:19,868
Speaker 18: player Comeback Player of the Year in nineteen eighty. I mean,

891
00:34:19,908 --> 00:34:22,268
Speaker 18: this guy, really, to me, deserves to be in it, because,

892
00:34:22,308 --> 00:34:24,308
Speaker 18: you know, comparably, you look at some of the other

893
00:34:24,348 --> 00:34:25,828
Speaker 18: guys that are in and you sit there and say,

894
00:34:25,868 --> 00:34:28,508
Speaker 18: you know, Bob Greasy had a tremendous career, but his

895
00:34:28,588 --> 00:34:30,548
Speaker 18: numbers are very similar to each other.

896
00:34:30,628 --> 00:34:31,508
Speaker 7: So I gotta ask you.

897
00:34:31,628 --> 00:34:33,908
Speaker 8: I spent a lot of time with Jim Pluckett, and

898
00:34:34,308 --> 00:34:35,668
Speaker 8: I got to ask you, why do you think he's

899
00:34:35,668 --> 00:34:37,268
Speaker 8: not in there? I mean, is it politics?

900
00:34:37,428 --> 00:34:38,268
Speaker 7: What is it?

901
00:34:38,268 --> 00:34:40,308
Speaker 18: It could be politics, but I do think it has

902
00:34:40,348 --> 00:34:42,228
Speaker 18: something to do with the one lost record. But again,

903
00:34:42,348 --> 00:34:44,548
Speaker 18: look at the whole teams though that he played for.

904
00:34:44,868 --> 00:34:46,868
Speaker 18: You know, he played for New England and they were bad.

905
00:34:47,508 --> 00:34:49,468
Speaker 18: He played for the forty nine ers when they were bad,

906
00:34:49,588 --> 00:34:52,108
Speaker 18: just just before they took off. But again, this is

907
00:34:52,108 --> 00:34:53,948
Speaker 18: a guy that when he got his opportunity to be

908
00:34:53,948 --> 00:34:55,988
Speaker 18: a champion, he made the most of it. And became

909
00:34:55,988 --> 00:34:57,388
Speaker 18: a two time Super Bowl champion.

910
00:34:57,628 --> 00:34:59,308
Speaker 8: Yeah, we should get you a T shirt that says

911
00:34:59,388 --> 00:35:00,468
Speaker 8: put Jimmy in right.

912
00:35:00,668 --> 00:35:02,748
Speaker 7: Oh, I'll wear that that, I'll wear that.

913
00:35:02,948 --> 00:35:04,828
Speaker 3: Wait, I just want to review.

914
00:35:05,148 --> 00:35:06,668
Speaker 4: So bring back to the top Julius Peppers.

915
00:35:06,668 --> 00:35:07,948
Speaker 3: The fact that you said I got him at the

916
00:35:08,028 --> 00:35:10,148
Speaker 3: end of his career, but was he still just the

917
00:35:10,148 --> 00:35:11,908
Speaker 3: most phenomenal athlete ever he was.

918
00:35:11,948 --> 00:35:14,828
Speaker 18: It was ridiculous how special he wasn't you know he

919
00:35:14,908 --> 00:35:19,348
Speaker 18: used when we used to run sprints during OTAs and workouts,

920
00:35:19,628 --> 00:35:22,108
Speaker 18: he was always in front of everybody, and the guy

921
00:35:22,108 --> 00:35:23,948
Speaker 18: that challenged him was Luke Keithley.

922
00:35:25,468 --> 00:35:25,668
Speaker 10: Yeah.

923
00:35:25,748 --> 00:35:28,148
Speaker 18: So that you talk about being competitive, and this was

924
00:35:28,148 --> 00:35:30,868
Speaker 18: the off season how competitive they were, and it made

925
00:35:30,868 --> 00:35:33,908
Speaker 18: everybody around them better because everybody wanted to compete at

926
00:35:33,908 --> 00:35:35,188
Speaker 18: the same level as Julius.

927
00:35:35,268 --> 00:35:36,228
Speaker 4: You just hit us with the wei.

928
00:35:36,228 --> 00:35:38,668
Speaker 3: Were you running those sprints?

929
00:35:39,188 --> 00:35:42,388
Speaker 18: You know, you do it until you can't. So I'm

930
00:35:42,428 --> 00:35:44,108
Speaker 18: trying to keep up with these guys, and all of

931
00:35:44,148 --> 00:35:45,508
Speaker 18: a sudden, I felt that little twine and.

932
00:35:48,588 --> 00:35:50,548
Speaker 10: You got it And it wasn't like.

933
00:35:50,468 --> 00:35:53,428
Speaker 4: The fake justin Jefferson like, yeah, I heard myself.

934
00:35:53,108 --> 00:35:55,068
Speaker 7: You're like it was real. Trust, it was real.

935
00:35:56,028 --> 00:35:57,988
Speaker 4: That's awesome, coach, Thank you so much.

936
00:35:58,388 --> 00:36:00,588
Speaker 17: Actually, what was the most athletic thing that you saw

937
00:36:00,668 --> 00:36:01,188
Speaker 17: Peppers do?

938
00:36:01,228 --> 00:36:03,068
Speaker 4: I mean, we know he's just like a freak athlete.

939
00:36:03,108 --> 00:36:04,508
Speaker 18: Well, you know, one of the things that we we

940
00:36:04,508 --> 00:36:06,908
Speaker 18: we toyed with was having him play tight end down

941
00:36:08,428 --> 00:36:10,988
Speaker 18: at the goal line, and they threw him a high

942
00:36:11,068 --> 00:36:13,948
Speaker 18: ball right in front of the goal post. He went

943
00:36:14,028 --> 00:36:15,748
Speaker 18: up one hand and just like it was a rebound

944
00:36:15,748 --> 00:36:17,868
Speaker 18: and just collected it and pulled it down while he

945
00:36:17,948 --> 00:36:19,108
Speaker 18: was while he was jumping.

946
00:36:19,148 --> 00:36:21,628
Speaker 7: Oh, it was amazing. True athlete, pure athlete.

947
00:36:21,828 --> 00:36:23,828
Speaker 4: You couldn't have any influence to get that play put in.

948
00:36:24,028 --> 00:36:28,868
Speaker 7: Oh, we worked on the trust and at the right time. Yes, situation, but.

949
00:36:28,828 --> 00:36:30,588
Speaker 18: The last thing you want to do is put him

950
00:36:30,588 --> 00:36:32,708
Speaker 18: in and have him get hurt doing something he shouldn't

951
00:36:32,748 --> 00:36:33,068
Speaker 18: be doing.

952
00:36:33,668 --> 00:36:34,228
Speaker 4: That's true.

953
00:36:34,388 --> 00:36:35,588
Speaker 3: So we could have been a Hall of Fame dight

954
00:36:35,668 --> 00:36:37,588
Speaker 3: end too, but it would have been so without.

955
00:36:37,348 --> 00:36:38,588
Speaker 18: A doubt he could have. I mean, he's a guy

956
00:36:38,588 --> 00:36:39,628
Speaker 18: that could have played both ways.

957
00:36:39,628 --> 00:36:40,068
Speaker 7: I believe.

958
00:36:40,228 --> 00:36:41,988
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, so great.

959
00:36:42,108 --> 00:36:44,708
Speaker 3: You have the best list of characters in your football life,

960
00:36:44,788 --> 00:36:46,628
Speaker 3: which is why we're so happy that Ron Rivera's here

961
00:36:46,628 --> 00:36:47,548
Speaker 3: with us all season long.

962
00:36:47,628 --> 00:36:49,908
Speaker 4: You're the best. You guys look great. You're holding it

963
00:36:49,948 --> 00:36:50,908
Speaker 4: down at Jets Camp.

964
00:36:50,948 --> 00:36:53,668
Speaker 3: I gotta ask, though, Kyle, you must be beside yourself

965
00:36:53,668 --> 00:36:56,708
Speaker 3: because the interviews you've gotten have been tremendous. But with

966
00:36:56,828 --> 00:37:00,348
Speaker 3: Quincy Williams with the Joker tattoo and Solomon Thomas with

967
00:37:00,388 --> 00:37:02,468
Speaker 3: the Star Wars t shirts, I mean, this is all

968
00:37:02,548 --> 00:37:03,348
Speaker 3: right up your alley.

969
00:37:04,548 --> 00:37:04,788
Speaker 7: True.

970
00:37:05,188 --> 00:37:07,668
Speaker 5: Solomon Thomas a great detackle of the Jets. You've known

971
00:37:07,748 --> 00:37:10,148
Speaker 5: him for years, big fan of the Acolyte. Now there

972
00:37:10,148 --> 00:37:13,268
Speaker 5: are many many people who are not fans of the Acolyte.

973
00:37:13,308 --> 00:37:15,628
Speaker 5: In fact, they're ready to draw sabers about it. He's

974
00:37:15,668 --> 00:37:18,508
Speaker 5: fully committed, fully in. He pitched it to Peter. You

975
00:37:18,548 --> 00:37:20,348
Speaker 5: should be watching the Accolade. Are you going to start

976
00:37:20,588 --> 00:37:21,068
Speaker 5: binging it?

977
00:37:21,108 --> 00:37:21,388
Speaker 10: I'm not.

978
00:37:22,148 --> 00:37:23,148
Speaker 7: Sauce Gardner came in.

979
00:37:23,188 --> 00:37:25,628
Speaker 6: He was talking about his golf game. We even got

980
00:37:25,628 --> 00:37:28,148
Speaker 6: a golf ball here. It's from Orlando Video Productions. Shout

981
00:37:28,148 --> 00:37:30,348
Speaker 6: out to Orlando, our guy don Orlando, and we're giving

982
00:37:30,388 --> 00:37:33,348
Speaker 6: a big love here. But the big interview was Quincy Williams.

983
00:37:33,348 --> 00:37:35,988
Speaker 5: I thought Quincy Williams, who once upon a time was

984
00:37:36,028 --> 00:37:38,468
Speaker 5: known as Quinn's brother, even though he's older than Quinn,

985
00:37:38,748 --> 00:37:40,948
Speaker 5: same draft class. A couple of rounds later, is now

986
00:37:40,988 --> 00:37:43,748
Speaker 5: an All Pro linebacker for the Jets. But we found

987
00:37:43,748 --> 00:37:46,188
Speaker 5: this amazing nugget about him. Okay, there was a time

988
00:37:46,228 --> 00:37:48,468
Speaker 5: in his life growing up in Birmingham. You guys watched

989
00:37:48,468 --> 00:37:51,468
Speaker 5: it where he had to choose either you can pursue football,

990
00:37:51,508 --> 00:37:53,548
Speaker 5: where he went on to be an All Pro, or

991
00:37:54,028 --> 00:37:57,588
Speaker 5: you can pursue your passion for swimming, where he was

992
00:37:57,628 --> 00:37:59,668
Speaker 5: on the path to go to the Olympics. Not joking,

993
00:37:59,828 --> 00:38:02,788
Speaker 5: he was going to be an Olympic swimmer. And I think, well,

994
00:38:02,828 --> 00:38:03,908
Speaker 5: we heard that and we were.

995
00:38:03,828 --> 00:38:05,868
Speaker 7: Like, we were like, okay, how good is he?

996
00:38:05,948 --> 00:38:07,268
Speaker 11: And we got we got footage.

997
00:38:07,588 --> 00:38:09,988
Speaker 5: This is the linebacker for the Jets, number thirty two

998
00:38:10,068 --> 00:38:12,188
Speaker 5: ranked player in the NFL Top one hundred, going through

999
00:38:12,188 --> 00:38:14,668
Speaker 5: his pre ritual. Here, he's got a lot of water bottles.

1000
00:38:14,908 --> 00:38:20,788
Speaker 5: He's putting on the goggles muscular. No, no cap, no cap.

1001
00:38:21,068 --> 00:38:22,948
Speaker 4: I can't say no, cad.

1002
00:38:23,188 --> 00:38:25,028
Speaker 7: Let's see what stroke we're gonna do here. We're gonna

1003
00:38:25,068 --> 00:38:25,588
Speaker 7: push off.

1004
00:38:25,908 --> 00:38:30,308
Speaker 5: It's not backstroke. Go ahead, Quincy, on your marks, get

1005
00:38:30,468 --> 00:38:34,708
Speaker 5: set and go Okay, we're doing a straightforward style.

1006
00:38:36,108 --> 00:38:37,948
Speaker 2: Damn good.

1007
00:38:38,308 --> 00:38:39,668
Speaker 7: He should be in Paris right now here.

1008
00:38:39,708 --> 00:38:40,108
Speaker 10: It's good.

1009
00:38:40,268 --> 00:38:42,188
Speaker 3: Honestly, for a second I thought it was solid.

1010
00:38:42,268 --> 00:38:42,588
Speaker 10: It's not.

1011
00:38:43,108 --> 00:38:46,268
Speaker 4: It's not. You know the technique of if you swim

1012
00:38:46,428 --> 00:38:46,828
Speaker 4: next to.

1013
00:38:46,788 --> 00:38:49,068
Speaker 3: Somebody and there's like the wave that you can benefit

1014
00:38:49,108 --> 00:38:51,468
Speaker 3: on the time, like, can you imagine the draft that

1015
00:38:51,548 --> 00:38:53,908
