Speaker 2: I was telling some people today, I'm like, it's like

10
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 2: Groundhog Day up here.

11
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 3: Oh very much. So.

12
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we get up, we do the same thing

13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 2: every day.

14
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 3: We cover practice. But that's why we're here. I mean,

15
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 3: the whole season is that way for people don't know.

16
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 3: I mean, once the kind of starts kicking, I can

17
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 3: pretty much tell you Thursday at six pm is n

18
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 3: that's right, here's what I'm gonna be doing. Week two

19
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 3: will be the same as week six. And you know

20
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 3: that's kind of the way it works. Yeah, yeah, that's

21
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 3: kind of the how the whole situation goes here. Uh.

22
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 2: But Mike Tomlin changing things up a little bit today

23
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 2: from yesterday's practice.

24
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 3: Which he tends to do. U.

25
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: We saw the team breakoff in yesterday was backs on backers,

26
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 2: and some other stuff.

27
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 3: Today they had four different Yeah, it was.

28
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: Hard one one drills kind of going on at the

29
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 2: same time on the field here in front of us,

30
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: you had the closest to us.

31
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 3: Here you had the the running backs, backs on backers,

32
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 3: backs on backers, but favoring the offense, and boy, Anthony

33
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 3: McFarlane tore that drill up, I would say, just receiving.

34
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 3: It's all was was past catching route running, usually from

35
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 3: either from a running back position. Once in a while

36
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 3: they split out wide, but mostly it was middle of

37
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 3: the field stuff or start down the middle of the field,

38
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 3: and that's an almost impossible drill for linebackers. But McFarlane

39
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 3: tore that drill up. And I mean he had some

40
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: long ones where I mean there were long touchdowns. One

41
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 3: on one against linebackers. He did a beautiful toe tap

42
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 3: down on the near sideline deep down field like he

43
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 3: was Antonio Brown. And then I don't know if you

44
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 3: saw this one, because you were here and then you

45
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 3: went to the other room. I just didn't know if

46
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: you caught it or not. Nausey caught a go ball.

47
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 3: I did the sideline like over his catch, over his shoulder,

48
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 3: perfect throat, perfect throat like he was George Pickens though.

49
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: But whatever the receiving numbers for the running back position

50
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 3: were last year, I'm taking the over. Yeah.

51
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 2: I mean they seem to have a definite plan, you know,

52
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,399
Speaker 2: to get these others well. I like the one move

53
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 2: that that Jalen Warren made too as well. On it

54
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 2: was on the Nick kwai Kowski and it's about five

55
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: yards off the line of scrimmage over the middle. He

56
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 2: kind of just gives him a little bit of shoulder

57
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: to create some separation and then swims through and the

58
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: ball was right there on him. No, I mean, just

59
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: perfect perfect. There's nothing the defender could do on that.

60
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: No, there really isn't. And it's funny because I just

61
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 3: happened to see this this morning from Pro Football Focus.

62
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 3: But I'm not saying he's Christian McCaffrey or Alvin Kamara

63
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 3: or you know, but by their numbers, he was like

64
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 3: second in like all receiving categories. Warren. I mean, I

65
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 3: always looked at him like, boy, he's a good receiver.

66
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 3: Nice fine, and look at him like maybe he's one

67
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: of the top ten receiving backs in the league, you know.

68
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 3: I mean, that's the kind of stuff he's been showing

69
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 3: and all three of those guys are major weapon web

70
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 3: right right right, And we've seen thus far, and we

71
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 3: saw this last year and it didn't come to fruition

72
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: because mostly McFarlane wasn't active.

73
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: But this year there's a better chance of that happening.

74
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 2: But we see more of two backs on the field

75
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: at the same time.

76
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,119
Speaker 3: Tons. I mean a lot of times it is McFarlane.

77
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: They use him as that is that you know, jet

78
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 2: sweep motion guy, but he's more than that.

79
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 3: Bet he's more than that. He's not just a gadget player.

80
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 3: They're not treating him that way. I know he's different,

81
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 3: but I would love Connor Heyward in there as well. Yeah,

82
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 3: he's doing some of those things. It's just these personnel groups,

83
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 3: you know, as you and I've talked about for months,

84
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 3: the five you can put out there, there's such a variety.

85
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 3: But one of the ones we're seeing more than ever,

86
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 3: without question, is Pony with two of those backs on

87
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: the field. And you know, with if you' an account

88
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 3: Hayward or not, but especially the top three, two of

89
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 3: them are out there a lot. How's that stress of

90
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 3: defense mat I'll be honest, like, as a whole. You've

91
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 3: seen teams flirt with that a lot, and I haven't

92
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 3: been that big a fan, I mean in the last

93
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: twenty years, just generically across the NFL because one of

94
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 3: the issues is one of those backs probably isn't a

95
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 3: very good blocker, right, you know. But I have noticed

96
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 3: and just maybe I'm a little part, I definitely a

97
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 3: little partial being around this team that these guys are

98
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 3: all very willing to stick their nose in and help

99
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 3: their fellow back, you know what I mean.

100
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: I think the interesting thing about it to me is

101
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 2: the fact, as we just talked about McFarland's skills as

102
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: a like, he looks like a wide receiver.

103
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 3: Yeah some of this stuff and the three of them

104
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 3: are also different that I haven't come up with the

105
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 3: formula that I almost hasitate to bring this up. But

106
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 3: instead of labeling offensive positions RBTE, fb WR, I would

107
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 3: almost like have a number system somewhere between like one

108
00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: and ten. If Earl Campbell or Drome bettis ten and

109
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 3: Torell Austin's or Calvin Austin's a one, you know, dra

110
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 3: archers of one, you know, like where are these guys,

111
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 3: you know, like Farland and nause aren't the same, right

112
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 3: seven and right McFarland's a three exactly exactly, you know

113
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:22,679
Speaker 3: what I mean. The Gentry and Kelsey aren't the same, right, clearly,

114
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 3: you know what I mean.

115
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: I would think when you line up in that package,

116
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 2: if you have two running backs on the field, nine

117
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 2: times out of ten, you're probably getting.

118
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 3: You're probably base right. I think that's what they want,

119
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 3: which means you're going to get a linebacker shifting out

120
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 3: on that on that running and many times, as we've

121
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 3: kind of brought up too, they break the huddle with

122
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 3: one of those backs detached and if there's a linebacker

123
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 3: straight over them. I've seen a few times where Kenny

124
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: doesn't most of them in. He just says, take that,

125
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 3: take that out of the house. You know. If it's

126
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 3: Kiwakowski or Roberts outside the numbers against McFarland, I like

127
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 3: my chances, you know what I mean. And it doesn't

128
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:01,799
Speaker 3: matter what team you're playing.

129
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, on the other side of the field, we had

130
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 2: the tight ends against the outside linebackers in a run

131
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 2: blocking drill.

132
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, and uh well young Darnell Washington, Well they

133
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 3: got a lot of reps that good. The last two

134
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 3: that he got against TJ Want were not good. No, no, no.

135
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 3: He has a tendency to kind of duck his head

136
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 3: and send the waist a little bit. As soon as

137
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 3: the head went down, Watch just went whoop. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

138
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 3: And that's what Washington was in the SEC too. I

139
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 3: mean with the you guys will hear about Bowers. He's

140
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 3: going to be a top ten pick next year, So

141
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 3: he wasn't out there every snack. Yeah, maybe top five,

142
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 3: but I mean he would bully people in the SEC,

143
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: I mean against Bam, against Lsu whatever, But there were

144
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,119
Speaker 3: times where he would kind of bend at the waist,

145
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 3: his eyes would go down, and the better dudes will

146
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 3: slip them, you know, they'll they'll get him over his

147
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,479
Speaker 3: skis a little bit. And you know, Watt's obviously a

148
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 3: better dude. So there's a lot to work with there though.

149
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: I mean, there was times where he was smothering guys

150
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 3: and that all from what I saw. Yeah, they weren't

151
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 3: capable of making that kind of move. They weren't going

152
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 3: to beat him, right.

153
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 2: Saw a lot of her Big and Connor Hayward matched

154
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: up against each other once again over there. That seems

155
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 2: to be a matchup that Mike Tomlin wants to see

156
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 2: a lot of.

157
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 3: I can understand why. Yeah.

158
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 2: And then over here we saw on the to our

159
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 2: left behind the receivers and the or the running backs

160
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: with in the the inside linebackers. You had wide receivers

161
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 2: working on there getting off a jam at the line

162
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: of scrimmage and.

163
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, release that drill started two ways. It looked like

164
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 3: a blocking drill to start right, Yeah, and then they

165
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 3: halfway through they flipped it and disted releases off man coverage.

166
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 3: So everyone's getting work. Yeah.

167
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: And then there's another one on ones with the lineman

168
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: over in the other field. So I mean it was

169
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 2: it was a four way cornicopia football type stuff going

170
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: on out here.

171
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 3: And I wanted to watch every one on one and

172
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 3: kind of get some here and there. But it was

173
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 3: a lot going on and it really difficult.

174
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of good stuff going on that

175
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 2: you wanted to see him, like, oh, I had the binoculars.

176
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 3: Up going on. I got to see that one. Yeah.

177
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 3: But that's an efficient use of a ten minute period

178
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 3: of practice.

179
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: Absolutely, When people say, well the Steelers only practiced two hours,

180
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 2: there was nobody really standing around.

181
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 3: And I mean it was. It was rotating guys through

182
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 3: pretty quickly and getting those reps absolutely so. Again, hyper

183
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: high tempo, a lot of physicality. We saw seven shots

184
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 3: to the defense basically won that. Yeah, they did.

185
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 2: They get incomplete to uh Deontay Johnson on first down

186
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 2: that would have even if he had caught that ball.

187
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: It kind of went through his hands at the line

188
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 2: of scrimm as Patrick Peterson was going to blow it

189
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 2: up and he was not going to go for a score.

190
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 2: Then he hit George Pickens in the back of the

191
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 2: end zone. But the officials who were on hand, the

192
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 2: NFL officials are on hand today, and they ruled that

193
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 2: he didn't get the feed in bounds, no touchdown. George disagreed.

194
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 2: George disagreed, as George will tend to do, and they explained,

195
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 2: you know, to him what they saw.

196
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 3: It looked close. It looked close. I mean, we don't

197
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 3: get replay up here, but you know, so that was close.

198
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 3: But the defense won that one. Yeah.

199
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 2: Then you had an incompletion to again to Pickens that

200
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: was way behind him.

201
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 3: That was that was a pretty bad throw. I thought

202
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 3: that might even been a throw away. It was such

203
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 3: a bad throw because there was nothing really open, He

204
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 3: just kind of chucked it.

205
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: Then the final one for the first team offense, you

206
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 2: had Anthony mcfarr. It was twenty six on twenty six

207
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 2: violence yeacause Kawan Alexander stepped up into the hole and

208
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 2: stuffed him at the line of scrimmage and stopped him

209
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 2: from getting into the end zone.

210
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 3: One Alexanders, he might be a dude. He might be

211
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 3: a dude. He's starting to show up, and I think

212
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 3: he might be a valuable signing, especially for what you

213
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 3: and you know put into the guy. Not that he

214
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 3: had much of a chance, but in that backs and

215
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 3: backers drill, it was twenty six on twenty six and

216
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 3: Farland just blew right past him. But to you know,

217
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 3: Alexander's credit, he used to guard fifty yards from fifty

218
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 3: five in the thorough hel the whole width of the field.

219
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: Yeah against a four four guy. Yeah yeah, with a

220
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 3: lot of time to throw. I mean, so he's not

221
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: going to win that one. But you know they've they've

222
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 3: done some head to head stuff here in the last

223
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 3: ten to fifteen minut Yeah. Then uh, we saw Mitch

224
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 3: Trubisky come in. He threw more team stuff coming. He

225
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 3: threw a.

226
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 2: Fade on first down for a touchdown, hitting Darnell Washington.

227
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 3: It was a nice throw. It was a different move

228
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 3: for Washington too. It wasn't just square up the line

229
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 3: of scrimmage to be big awarded and yeah nice.

230
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 2: Then he had done old shesky for a touchdown and

231
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 2: then he threw incomplete. I believe that the intended was

232
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: Calvin Austin, but it wasn't close and I don't think

233
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 2: anybody was open there and that might.

234
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 3: Have been a throw away as well.

235
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe now we'll breaking up the team against our

236
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 2: team here again and pick it drops back the past

237
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 2: that time to throw.

238
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 3: What a blitz pick up by Nausea, very nice and

239
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 3: he hits.

240
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 2: Uh Deontay Johnson on an out and uh, well that

241
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 2: goes for a nice game there, I had, uh was it?

242
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 2: And coverage Duke Dawson and coverage. So they've I've seen

243
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,439
Speaker 2: more of that in this camp. You see more Deontae

244
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 2: in the slot.

245
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've noticed that as well. I think that's starting

246
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 3: to be I'm starting to have my radar up for

247
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 3: it a little bit, you know, like it's not just Robinson.

248
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 3: The slot just got you.

249
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,719
Speaker 2: Know, that's when when Deontay came out in college, a

250
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 2: lot of people thought, maybe is he a slot receiver

251
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 2: at he's not the biggest receiver shifting, but he's shifting.

252
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 2: He gets those quick, quick, you know, quick releases. He's

253
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: opened right away. And he's always been the outside guy,

254
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 2: when now we're starting to see more of them on

255
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 2: the inside. Although they break huddle here and it's Pickings into.

256
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 3: The slot right and Robinson, who you think is in

257
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 3: the slot, is the lone guy to the near.

258
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 2: Something and they motion, but Picking stays in the slot

259
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 2: on the left side. Then behind Firemooth and Robinson that

260
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 2: would have been a sack byj is already kicking and

261
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 2: there's a throwaway, so nice, uh nice get off there

262
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: by t J.

263
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 3: Watt and he did his little celebration there just let

264
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 3: everybody know I had the sack. I did. I briefly

265
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: mentioned it, but to play the first play of the drill,

266
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 3: Mark Robinson came absolutely clear on the blitz. I mean,

267
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 3: the blitz call was perfect. You get the linebacker screaming

268
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 3: down on the back. That's exactly what what the defensive

269
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 3: coordinator wants, and Nausey just stuffed up like a brick.

270
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 3: He does as well as any back in the league. Yeah,

271
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 3: he's hard to run through, that's for sure. He's always

272
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: been good protection.

273
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's see what we got here this time around.

274
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 2: It's still still the first team offense out there, as

275
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 2: it is.

276
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 3: On the upper side there. You got Pickens and Robinson

277
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 3: down here.

278
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 2: It looks like fifteen Cody White get a little motion

279
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 2: to the right to left by Robinson, drop back the pass,

280
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 2: get some time to throw, pick up a few Yeah.

281
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 2: Nice nice diving catch there by Alan Robinson for about

282
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: five yard game.

283
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's about right. Take it on first down.

284
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 3: Defense played pretty well though, too. Yeah a lot, and

285
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 3: you know, no, I mean that's that's one of those

286
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 3: ones that's kind of a win on both sides. Yeah,

287
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, well, both teams will take it. It's

288
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 3: a short Yeah, it's a short gain.

289
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 2: Thought the offense will take it because they moved the

290
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: football a little bit. The defense is like, okay, we

291
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 2: get to live now. It's third down. Get the third down, right,

292
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 2: it looks like this show a third and ten. I

293
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 2: think they might have counted the sack there, so I

294
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 2: think it right, third and ten. Yeah, So let's see

295
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 2: what they got here we get the trips here, although

296
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: it's Hayward.

297
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 3: In the slot. On the other side, McFarland goes McFarland

298
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 3: and McFarland's in the wing there op bad snap pick

299
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 3: Picket picks it up and bad snaps have been a

300
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 3: little too much of a theme. I think Levi Wallace

301
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 3: got a hand on that. I think he did too. Yeah,

302
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 3: broke it up.

303
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 2: It was intended for Deontay Johnson, just gotta he's got

304
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 2: a tip of his finger on it to break it up.

305
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 3: Good play. Yet you had another usage of McFarland though

306
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 3: you mentioned he was as a wing and he just

307
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,599
Speaker 3: stood in Kevin's you know, hung in and blocked. You know,

308
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 3: he didn't go out on that play. I mean he

309
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: showed very capable.

310
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,040
Speaker 2: So well, that's one of those things like he can

311
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 2: pick up somebody and then release to the flat and

312
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 2: you get him the ball in the flat with it

313
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 2: where he can get ahead of steam and it's like, oh.

314
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, dump it over that rusher's head even or yeah.

315
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now we see pickt and Deontay Johnson down here

316
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 2: talking After that series, mitched Trubisky and motions JYLEM Warren

317
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 2: into the backfield, goes to his right from left to right,

318
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: and we get the.

319
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 3: Snap, snap coming there, pressure there. That was probably a

320
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 3: sack too. Nice throw though, nice throw coming out of

321
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 3: that to Calvin Austin down the sideline that maybe you

322
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 3: guys can hear the cheering through the glass, but I

323
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 3: mean that was a forty five yard touchdown bomb on

324
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 3: the right sideline, but would have been a sack. It

325
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 3: looked like a sack though, right right right like still

326
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 3: a beautiful throw and catch looked like forty nine getting

327
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: in there. Yeah, yeah, that is Oh I thought it

328
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 3: was Chappelle Russell. I believe. I'm pretty sure it's Russell here.

329
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 3: The crochet is an outside guy right, Oh yeah, he's

330
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 3: forty eight. I'm yeah, my bad, good call by you.

331
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 3: I got the the roster in front.

332
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: I've got the roster in front of me as well.

333
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 2: I've got to hear on my computer screen. I completely

334
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 2: blew that one.

335
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 3: So there you go. All good. I'm still not good

336
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 3: with the numbers.

337
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 2: Austin shows motion and then goes back and the corner

338
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 2: went with him in the corner then blitzes.

339
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 3: That nice dropped by Broder and Jones don too picking

340
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 3: up the edge of rusher incomplete.

341
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, this is the great thing about

342
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 2: having the live reps here is that that we're getting

343
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 2: a good look at the pass rush. We're getting a

344
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 2: good look at the you know, just some of the

345
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 2: physicality there. These guys can actually rush now in the

346
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: in the in the you know, they're not going.

347
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 3: To finish, but they're gonna rush hard, you know, right.

348
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 2: Not only that, but the offensive lineman also get to

349
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 2: throw their weight around a little bit.

350
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, good point. This is again third

351
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 3: and six.

352
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: It looks like something's like third and yeah, third and

353
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: six is maybe let's a smidge more and uh we

354
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 2: get to snap back.

355
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 3: Looks like another sack there, but.

356
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 2: He does step up and hit Cody White on a crosser.

357
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 2: Oh and Cody White just got smacked to the ground

358
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 2: at the end of that by.

359
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: I don't know. Kenny Robinson. Ninety four must be a

360
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 3: new guy because he's not on this roster. I grabbed

361
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 3: him yesterday, but he had a nice rep there on

362
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 3: a blaze. They brought five or six guys on the

363
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 3: ninety four is armand Watts. He is not a new guy.

364
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 3: He's not on this He's not on the roster, you got. No,

365
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 3: they have him at sixty eight. They may have changed numbers.

366
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm looking at the updated roster on Steelers dot Com.

367
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 3: I bet he's not gonna be sixty eight in the

368
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 3: regular sea probably not. Probably not. That was nice wrapped

369
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 3: by him. Yeah, and we got McFarland to uh Trubisky's right.

370
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 3: He motion is over to the left side for the

371
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 3: protection the right.

372
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're showing a little uh blitz package on that side,

373
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,359
Speaker 2: showing blitz with ope.

374
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 3: Somebody flinched. We get a flash shot.

375
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: It looked like the pressure came actually off the other side,

376
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 2: but Trubisky scrambled up and got away from that.

377
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 3: I think the defense jumped, but yeah, I think the

378
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 3: offense they came apart and yeah, yeah, we're showing blitz heavy. Yeah,

379
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 3: they saw they the blitzpier, their blitzing a long. They

380
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 3: called false start there, Oh they did.

381
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, saw the official step in, the umpire step in

382
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 2: and called motion.

383
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 3: Uh. Now we got Mason Rudolph and his group in there,

384
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 3: group number three. Take a look at the dough line

385
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 3: here a little bit. This Dylan Cook from Montana's the

386
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 3: third left tackle. Yeah, I mean, just being a tackle

387
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 3: always gives you a chance. I wonder if you see

388
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: how he holds up.

389
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 2: Okay, they break the huddle and empty backfield right now

390
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,640
Speaker 2: for Trubisky, twenty five splits out wide.

391
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 3: Let's see if they motion him into the back of

392
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 3: they this a lot. Here he comes, Linebacker follows, Linebacker follows.

393
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 3: That should mean man and then another motion corner follows.

394
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 3: But let's see again. That's Oh he's stuck out one

395
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 3: in there. This must be a blitzperit, because every they're

396
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 3: coming like crazy. Yeah, they're coming like crazy.

397
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 2: And in a situation like that that you would expect

398
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 2: the offense to struggle a little bit with the first

399
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: few reps of that.

400
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean that's they right, you know, not

401
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 3: to mention if they do have a successful play, if

402
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 3: you beat the blitz, sometimes it's one mistackle away for

403
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 3: taking it to the house right. Well, you're not going

404
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 3: to see that here, you know. Yeah, that was a

405
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 3: nice throw by that Rudolf. Was a real nice throw

406
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 3: about a fifteen yard inn. But where it needs to

407
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 3: be an easy throw either A lot of people come

408
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 3: bearing down on him breaking the huddle here again, Anthony

409
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 3: Farlan's split wide.

410
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: There's two backs on the field. Now, yea Farland is

411
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 2: outside these trends, folks, Yeah, outside the numbers here. Now

412
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 2: he goes in motion, nobody follows. Is that orbit motion

413
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: or motion beat up?

414
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 3: Well? That really opens up. Yeah.

415
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, every time that they've done that in this camp,

416
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 2: Like so they do the orbit motion where they where

417
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 2: the back goes behind the.

418
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 3: Quarterback and he gets faster and faster and faster, and.

419
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 2: Then he's kind of started towards the line of scrimmage

420
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 2: when the ball snaps. Yeah, and immediately the corner on

421
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 2: that side steps up and it's opened that hole yep, in.

422
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 3: The middle of field because you're between the corner ash. Yeah,

423
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 3: that corner out of the plane.

424
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,439
Speaker 2: Rudolph was able to identify that and hit that for

425
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 2: about a ten yard gain.

426
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 3: I like that play. No, it's an interesting play design

427
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,719
Speaker 3: stuff to try to It's almost like you're manipulating the

428
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 3: linebackers without taking the time to do the play action

429
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 3: part right, you know what I mean? Yeah, which takes

430
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 3: an extra beat.

431
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 2: You we'll get a bunch of formation down here to

432
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 2: the to the left of the quarterback. Now we motion

433
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: uh sixteen across the formation Jordan Bird. Yeah, that's Jordan

434
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 2: Byrd bad snap again, showing a little bit n another

435
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 2: bad snap. I don't know if it was bad like that,

436
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 2: if he was ready for it, or if it was

437
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 2: I he might not have been.

438
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 3: Ready for that one because I'm just a little bit

439
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 3: to his right. Yeah, yeah, but it was there. I

440
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 3: mean it was shoulder high. But I bet we're gonna

441
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 3: hear centers need to get the snapped better. That's been

442
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 3: something of an issue last couple of days. Yeah.

443
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's again something that happens when all of

444
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 2: a sudden, now the center's.

445
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 3: Getting hit at the time when he still right right right.

446
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,360
Speaker 3: The heck A lot different than skeleton drolls and things

447
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 3: like that.

448
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So we got one receiver up top

449
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 2: to to to the left, and then we get a

450
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:03,239
Speaker 2: little motion there by JaMarcus Bradley. He goes over to

451
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 2: the right side. There's Adams Blitz. Good Pipas stands in

452
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 2: strong delivered a good ball. Should have caught it, Miles

453
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 2: boy can can't bring it in. Yeah, uh, defended there

454
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,639
Speaker 2: by Luke Bark.

455
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 3: Who not bad defense. But now I should have caught that. Yep,

456
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 3: good paths. That's one he'd surely like to have back.

Speaker 3: He is Matt Williamson.

472
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 2: Were got our live ongoing coverage here of Steelers training

473
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 2: camp practice here at Saint Vincent College.

474
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 3: And I just saw a nice run there by Jaylen Warren.

475
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 2: The first team offense was back there in the field,

476
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 2: did some good stuff out there. Get the second unit

477
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 2: is back out there now with Mitch Trubisky again warm

478
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 2: getting a nice push there on the on the right side.

479
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 2: He kind of cut that back and took that for

480
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 2: a nice game. And as he always does, even after

481
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 2: he stopped, he runs down to the yea to the

482
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 2: end zone because he just doesn't stop.

483
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 3: He's like the energizer. Buddy Herbie. Got a couple of

484
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 3: good reps there too. He's out out here at the

485
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 3: left outside linebacker spot, that spot, Metro Whiskey in the

486
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 3: backfield and a little quick screen bub nice job there,

487
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 3: like getting that upfield quickly now that the defensive looking

488
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:52,880
Speaker 3: warranted it. I'm sure that was an r PO.

489
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right, that was Calvin Austin getting that and

490
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 2: getting upfield quickly.

491
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,679
Speaker 3: I think it was Cody White setting the setting the

492
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,199
Speaker 3: edge there for him. That'd be a good guy to

493
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 3: have out in front of him. It's a good blocker,

494
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 3: stick his nose in there. Tough guy, right, special team

495
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 3: er right now. You can do a lot worse. Yeah,

496
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 3: he's just not a dynamic receiver right right, But he

497
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 3: does the little things. He does all the little things.

498
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 2: He gets a little kudos there by Mike Tomlin talking

499
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,719
Speaker 2: bringing him and the official one right, maybe they were

500
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: talking about it if that was a hold or not. I

501
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 2: don't know if we maybe he blocked. They thought he

502
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 2: blocked a little early.

503
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 3: They didn't throw a f Tomlin was giving him credit

504
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 3: for Hey, because if you don't new job here, that

505
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,439
Speaker 3: play is no chance correct, right, and that would have

506
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,280
Speaker 3: been a nice gain on that one. Then you get

507
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 3: Austin in space. Yeah, do the dirty work for your buddy, and.

508
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 2: We got another false This has been a bit of

509
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 2: an issue today with more false starts.

510
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: Good point. Seen a lot of flaves.

511
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and there taking him out of there, that is

512
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 2: sixty seven Jared Williams. That's not a good way that

513
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 2: he got the first year tackle out of Miami. He

514
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 2: gets thrown out of there. He was at right tackle

515
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 2: and they say not get in there. They put out

516
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 2: their seventy four nice throw.

517
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 3: The Spencer Anderson. Yeah, who, I didn't know if you

518
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 3: play tackle here or not. Yeah, I think he's talk

519
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 3: about draft pick. I never I never bring them up.

520
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 3: No place of center, compress some guard.

521
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 2: They put him in at right tackle there and Trubisky

522
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 2: just found firemouth down the middle of the field. That

523
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 2: was nice, very nice throw and nice separation there by

524
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 2: Firemouth on that one.

525
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,680
Speaker 3: I wonder if Anderson could do maybe not this year.

526
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 3: I mean he seems destined for the practice squad. But

527
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 3: if he can get you out of game at tackle

528
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 3: or center, I think it's see him as a swing

529
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 3: guy that can play four positions. Yeah, right, right right,

530
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 3: you know, and that is a lot of value. I mean,

531
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 3: if it's between you and somebody else on get a

532
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 3: hat on game day, you want that guy.

533
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 2: Or even you and you know, making a spot on

534
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 2: the practice squad. If you play four different positions, you

535
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 2: got all kinds of value. And you could do it

536
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 2: in practices during the week two. And you know it's

537
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 2: hard for there's a lot of true centers and a

538
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 2: lot of true right tackles, and to make it as

539
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 2: a true center, say.

540
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 3: If you're the number two, you know, only one guy

541
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 3: can get hurt for you to get in the game,

542
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, And that's true right tackle often.

543
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 3: That's really what kind of happened with Kendrick Green last year?

544
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 3: Is they right? He did all? You know?

545
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 2: They Okay, you're not going to play center. Uh so

546
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 2: you're the guard, but you're the backup guard. It's just

547
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 2: you end up being.

548
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 3: Don't really find your niche he's at center now, by

549
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 3: the way, Rudolph is in there with that group. Rudolph

550
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 3: sends some motion there that's a chis was that Chisholm

551
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 3: or chis? And I should say in motion. I heard

552
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 3: a lot of people talking about him as a really

553
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,439
Speaker 3: good special teams player.

554
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard that about him as well. And he

555
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 2: steps up and hits Miles Boyking over the middle. It's

556
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 2: a you know, Rudolph, I like really could step into

557
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 2: that fight. He couldn't step into that pass because there

558
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 2: was some the pocket that kind of collapsed in the

559
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 2: middle there, and that was an all on arm throw

560
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,479
Speaker 2: there about fifteen yards over the middle, and he hit

561
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 2: him in stride there.

562
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 3: So I like over the middle over the middle has

563
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 3: been a another theme after this training camp. No doubt,

564
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,199
Speaker 3: somebody dropped the towel and deontay like forty yards from

565
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 3: the sideline and go get it. I assume it's boy

566
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 3: caned a little pistol formation here. Yeah, I don't know

567
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 3: if I've seen that yet.

568
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 2: They've done a little bit of it, a little Yeah,

569
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 2: usually when they have two backs on the field, No,

570
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 2: you're right, you're right.

571
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, But in this case, I was like they made

572
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 3: some ring on that one.

573
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, in this case, only saw one back on the

574
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 2: field and they created some space there.

575
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 3: Balls on the ground though, and well he's one of

576
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 3: the newly signed backs, my number twenty five. I'm not

577
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 3: familiar with him either. Yeah, I love it. That is

578
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 3: I love it. I believe. Yeah, he's that's still showing

579
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 3: as Darius Hagen's on on this team website. Come on, guys, Yeah,

580
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 3: let's love it. I believe he had a tough go

581
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 3: of it and backs on backers yesterday. Yeah, he looked

582
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 3: like the new guy. I bet he didn't love that.

583
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,679
Speaker 3: That's love it rough first did not love it. You

584
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 3: are correct. He got trucked a couple of times. Okay,

585
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 3: McFarland and a bunch down here, Yeah, that's dangerous. It

586
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 3: looks like Austin's out there with another back on the field. Again.

587
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 2: McFarlane goes in motion from right to left. Now he's

588
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 2: the only receiver on that side. He kind of runs

589
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 2: a little cross.

590
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 3: Drag, yeah, and getting a lot of Rudolph Miles Boykin

591
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 3: and for the for a nice little game. Yeah, pick

592
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,479
Speaker 3: up a few pick pick up ready to sticks. So

593
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 3: that would have been a first down there. So that's

594
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 3: kind of ended for that team.

595
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 2: Portion of the practice, and we're going to go to

596
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 2: some more special teams here, so we could talk a

597
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 2: little bit more about what we've seen. Unless I see

598
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 2: something here on special teams, it's really interesting. Well they

599
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 2: are setting up I do like this draw on special teams.

600
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 3: This is a good one. Yeah, where they set the

601
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 3: bags up across the field and the guys have to

602
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 3: kind of serpentine their way through it and get to

603
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 3: the Uh. I think this is the one where the

604
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 3: last bag you just run right through, right through it,

605
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 3: right down the middle. You don't avoid it all. I

606
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 3: assume that's basically the tackle.

607
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, they kind of set off set the bags a

608
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 2: little bit, uh so you can get through them a

609
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 2: little quicker, and they want to keep.

610
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 3: You on a straight path despite obstacles. Correct, I mean

611
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 3: if you lose lane through it right right. I mean

612
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 3: it's kind of like punt, but more kickoff. I would think,

613
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 3: you know where you're eleven guys off to have their lane.

614
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 3: You know, if you start drifting off that that fifty

615
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 3: yard line they're using here, then you know, things open up,

616
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 3: things open up, and a good return to find it.

617
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,959
Speaker 3: Bad stuff happens, bad thing. So what's going on? Forty

618
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 3: there at the forty's like also some kind of release drill. Yeah,

619
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 3: it looks like you're gonna jam because they got them

620
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 3: about five yards off. It looks like they got they're

621
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 3: both long snappers out there. Okay, they're just a placeholder, yeah,

622
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 3: the placeholder. Yeah.

623
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 2: So what they're doing is they've got they've got blocking

624
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 2: pads and they're turning one way or the other, and

625
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 2: so that whichever way they turn, the defender has to

626
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 2: go off of their backside and then go strip the

627
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 2: ball out from a running back or a receiver. So again,

628
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 2: little things like this is your practice, like punching that

629
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 2: ball out from behind.

630
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 3: Right right right now? I mean especially you got eleven

631
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 3: guys crashing on a a return guy and they come

632
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 3: from all angles.

633
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 2: And then it's not only it's not only that, but

634
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 2: once you once the ball is out, whoever punched it out,

635
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 2: they gotta find football.

636
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm glad they take it to that level too.

637
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 3: Like it's not just good enough to get it out,

638
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 3: you need to be the one recovering.

639
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 2: Somebody, get on it, like you know it's out. Nobody

640
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: else knows it's out, So you get on the football.

641
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 3: Everyone else is doing their job looking for it. You know,

642
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 3: interesting Miles Boykin. Sometimes it's kind of funky too. That

643
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,000
Speaker 3: ball isn't around once the bounce all over the place.

644
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 3: They did the same. Yeah, they're doing the same thing

645
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 3: over here. They got a double drill. They have the

646
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,639
Speaker 3: punters of long snappers just holding shields. Yeah, and a

647
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 3: good drill to work on with that stuff.

648
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 2: The quarterbacks still down over any second field over there,

649
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 2: see I Ken you picktt through them with Deontay Johnson

650
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 2: again and they just get working.

651
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, there's not much standing around. You know.

652
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 3: The old line looks like they're having a little pow wow,

653
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 3: good time, get a little water. But all in all,

654
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 3: there's not much standing around. Get a water. The beasts, yeah, yeah,

655
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 3: what the big people trade. Big people would be pretty fresh,

656
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 3: you know.

657
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 2: I know that's something for like example, James Daniels pays

658
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,719
Speaker 2: a lot of attention to because well, I mean, his

659
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 2: father's best friend growing.

660
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 3: Up was Corey Stringer. Played high school football together. They

661
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 3: played at Ohio State together, they played at Minnesota together. Okay,

662
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 3: I didn't realize all that. Yeah, and so you know

663
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 3: Corey Stringers. Some people might not know the Corey Stringers yeah.

664
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 3: I mean he's he died on the on the an

665
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 3: NFL field because of he'd exhaust heat, exhaustion and dehydration

666
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 3: and all the you know those things that you try

667
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 3: to avoid and be smarter about in today's day and age.

668
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 3: So I know, not bear Bryant. You know, here's a

669
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 3: wet towel for you guys aught to suck on. Yeh share. Yeah,

670
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 3: takes salt pills. Yeah, okay, that'll make it. That'll take

671
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 3: care of my thirst. Yeah, that'll that'll keep me nice,

672
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 3: nice and healby. Yeah. Absolutely.

673
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 2: So I know the Shawn Daniels, who's James daniels father,

674
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 2: very cognizant event and.

675
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 3: I know, you know he told me when I spoke

676
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 3: with him. You know, when he talks to his his son.

677
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 2: He's like, make sure you stay hydrated. Sure, I'm sure,

678
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 2: first and last thing he says to him every time.

679
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 2: Because again that's you know, he he's the godfather of

680
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 2: Le's young Daniels Junior, their their oldest son.

681
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,239
Speaker 3: String stingers. Okay, I got lost in that's a I mean,

682
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 3: it's a big blow to the Henley obviously, right huge.

683
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 3: He was a great player. He was the first round

684
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 3: pick out of Ohio State bright career. You know, so

685
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 3: that was a terrible story for people don't remember absolutely,

686
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 3: And that's that's been a while though it's been on

687
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 3: quite a while. This why I brought up because I

688
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,239
Speaker 3: think it was twenty thirty years ago. I don't know.

689
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 3: I want to say it was mid early to mid NINETIESKA,

690
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 3: somewhere in there, maybe late nineties. So yeah, I mean

691
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 3: it's but it's it happens, and it did happen, and

692
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 3: I think that helped change some of the things that

693
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 3: the NFL did. Unfortunately it's too late for him, but sure.

694
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 3: But I know some people roll their eyes at the

695
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 3: heat acclamation period and all that, but there were a

696
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 3: lot of older dudes with strains and things like that

697
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 3: around the league, and I mean jumping right into it.

698
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 3: I mean there's a medical reason they do it. It's

699
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 3: not just because we want to be soft, you know.

700
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, it's I I never get that when somebody

701
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 2: calls an NFL player that guy soft, Right, you don't

702
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 2: get to this game and be and live being soft.

703
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 3: You don't get to this field or any thirty two.

704
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 3: At this stage, there's no such thing as a soft

705
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 3: NFL player.

706
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 2: No, there may be some who are less physical than others.

707
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: Of course, like Dion Sanders was not soft, no, no.

708
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 3: Like, oh I never saw him tackle anybody? Come on, yeah, yeah,

709
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 3: I mean I think you also. I think he made

710
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 3: some business. Also realized that I'm more valuable to the

711
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 3: team not tackling Jerome Bettis and living to cover you know,

712
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,479
Speaker 3: somebody else, you know, right right from more snaps, I mean,

713
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 3: do it you do best, absolutely, And then that one.

714
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 3: Coaches didn't mind too much either. They probably didn't like

715
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 3: somebody else make that tackle. Don't make Dion make that tackle.

716
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 3: That's just how that goes. But it's third and eight

717
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 3: and the Super Bowl. He's gonna sick. He's gonna sick

718
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 3: his face right right, right man. That's the way. It

719
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 3: didn't lack competitiveness, no, absolutely toughness, right, absolutely not.

Speaker 2: That was a nice rep.

751
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 3: It was a real nice rep by James Daniels about

752
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: he hit a punch on Lario and job, he's just

753

00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 2: a steel bar.

758
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then over here on to our right, we

759
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 3: got you know, skeleton drill here and really nice work

760
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 3: by Kean O'Neil. I mean, there was a crossing route

761
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 3: over that he could he kind of took the dude's

762
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 3: head off, but he I think you're gonna pay when

763
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 3: you go over the middle and Neil's neck of the woods.

764
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 2: As much as you can in today's NFL. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

765
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 2: I mean it's not gonna jactatum, but you know, right

766
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 2: or even Ryan Clark at this point, that is what

767
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 2: it is.

768
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 3: Dan Moore, another nice defensive plate workover.

769
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 2: Like Higah Smith working over there. Heisman got him into

770
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 2: the inside, but again there's there's no inside help on these,

771
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 2: So tough on the offensive, lineman, because you know, the

772
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 2: two way go yeah, the defender can go he can

773
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 2: go three ways.

774
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:44,959
Speaker 3: He can go three around, you know, the other way around.

775
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 2: All right, good job there by Cole or by more

776
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 2: running running him around the the the.

777
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: Arc there mat There's a lot going on. So yeah,

778
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 3: this is this is fun again.

779
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 2: I would love to be I'm looking through my binock

780
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 2: keelers get to see over to the.

781
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 3: Other size move by herbig. Yeah, herbig is like he's

782
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 3: a good player, he really is. He keeps showing up

783
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 3: in these one on one.

784
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 2: I think he's a guy that you could get ten

785
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 2: to fifteen fastballs off the edge per game. I think

786
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,400
Speaker 2: so you know, lying that way too, after like you know,

787
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 2: five or six snaps of block and DJ and now he.

788
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 3: Comes in by Deonte one hand to grab deep out

789
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 3: well thrown ball halded in with his left hand. Nice

790
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 3: snag there. He can do stuff like that.

791
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, I mean I think you know, if

792
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 2: you sub in Herbig for what, you know, somebody's.

793
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 3: Sure he takes a lot of breathers. Whoever whoever is

794
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 3: the blocker is there? Oh TJ's had the game. Like

795
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,919
Speaker 3: if we relax a little bit, right, now here comes

796
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 3: this fastball coming at you. You know, ninety five mile

797
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 3: an hour right down in the middle hit this. Yeah,

798
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,359
Speaker 3: and he is more than that too, Yeah he does,

799
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 3: he does. He certainly is a pass rush repertoire. He's

800
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 3: not just all speed. And once again I love it.

801
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 2: So I'm looking here on over there and herbig is

802
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,720
Speaker 2: literally shoulder to shoulder, kneeling next.

803
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 3: To t Yeah. Oh he's a shadow.

804
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's say he's like a lamprey at this point.

805
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 3: Okay, what have we got now? Calvin Austin's had a

806
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 3: big practice. He was another long game. They got fa

807
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 3: Hoko now against Green that's a good bull rush. But

808
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,760
Speaker 3: he helped, he held up. Well, I'd call that probably

809
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 3: a stalemate. Yeah, I mean, that's not Fajko's calling cards. No,

810
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 3: you kind of know what's coming. Yeah, you know what

811
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 3: I mean, But you still get to you still got its.

812
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 3: Still it's a heavy dude right through a big guy.

813
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:35,240
Speaker 3: Better by hands. Yeah, another good rep there by the offense.

814
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 3: I think that was more might have been Jones. That

815
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 3: was Jones. We have a nice driving protection.

816
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna run that one back again here. I

817
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 2: can't tell who the outside player the ninety four is.

818
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 2: The defensive player so that we already established that's our

819
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:51,439
Speaker 2: mom wats right?

820
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,399
Speaker 3: Yeah? Are you sure it's not fifty four? No, that's

821
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 3: ninety four. Actually he actually went against Kevin dottson there, okay,

822
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 3: so they didn't run it back. He was a three

823
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:02,799
Speaker 3: technique thing. Yeah, yep.

824
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 2: Explain to people the difference between a three and a

825
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 2: five technique, they're matt.

826
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 3: It's it's all based on gaps. So if you're on

827
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 3: if you align on the outside shoulder of a center,

828
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 3: that's a one technique. If you're on the outside shoulder

829
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 3: of a guard, it's a three technique. If you're on

830
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 3: the outside shoulder of a tackle, it's a five technique.

831
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 3: So there's obviously twos and fours in between there too,

832
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 3: but the best way to think of three techniques skill wise,

833
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 3: Warren Sap really took it to a new level, you know,

834
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 3: where if you can get an upfield attacking Aaron Donald

835
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 3: Gino Atkins, you know, attacking that outside shoulder right off

836
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 3: the bat and getting interior pressure, those guys are gold

837
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 3: and they still are and they I mean, Hayward does

838
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 3: that too. It did it. I mean, okun Joe, I

839
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,479
Speaker 3: mean everybody does it, but like that was a great

840
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 3: rip pader by Joe. Yeah it look like it too.

841
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 3: I mean, just nasty. But you don't have to be

842
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 3: just quickness. You know. Quinn Williams and Jeffrey Simmons and

843
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 3: those guys will line up on three techniques and they're

844
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 3: coming more and more valuable all the time. And you're

845
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,240
Speaker 3: seeing these interior defensive linemen really get paid lately because

846
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 3: teams want to play with lighter boxes and play with

847
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 3: two high safeties, you know, make you matriculate the ball

848
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 3: down the field. But that puts more pressure on any.

849
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 2: A little punch there from Spencer Anderson at the end

850
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 2: of that rap, he's lining up again here at right

851
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 2: tackle tackle he did not for today, David Parrells continuing

852
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 2: that little.

853
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 3: All right, Spencer showed a little feistiness there at the

854
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 3: end of that. They running that one back, They got

855
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 3: to run it back again. He does a nice job

856
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 3: of pushing a good rep by Andrews, kind of rooting

857
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 3: for him. That's it'd be a nice little addition that

858
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 3: doesn't get talked about. A lot.

859
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 2: Tough to crack that roster though. On the line, you need,

860
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 2: you know, an injury or something to happen or a trade.

861
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,200
Speaker 3: Maybe dots it's moved or like you said, right right,

862
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,439
Speaker 3: but maybe it's for next year, you know, right, yeah, yeah,

863
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 3: call them up in week ten when you need them,

864
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 3: you know. Absolutely. He still gets a little nine on

865
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 3: seven going on down here on the field closer to us.

866
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 2: It's a tough thing about this is that those one

867
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 2: on ones are going on in the field on the

868
00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 2: other field there.

869
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 3: They don't care about our viewing pleasure. But I wish

870
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 3: they would mix it, mix it up once in a while.

871
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,359
Speaker 3: That's Jonathan Marshall there with the rep on that one

872
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 3: bad camp. He's been active. Yeah he's not just a

873
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 3: throwaway guy, No, he's not. I would bet he ends

874
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 3: up playing somewhere this year.

875
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 2: Now you go, Keanu Bent and just really good off

876
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage air against.

877
00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 3: I think he helps right away. I do too. Yeah,

878
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 3: you know he's working in. It's Roy McCollum there, who

879
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 3: they like, and he just he just ate his lunch.

880
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 3: McCallum the center, right center only. Yeah, that's two in

881
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 3: a row. He's just eating his lunch. And now they're

882
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 3: going to run it back a third time here. Let's

883
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 3: see how this one goes here McCollum snaps the ball.

884
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 3: A little hand fighting there and then well not a

885
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 3: better jother maybe yep. They threw the flag as you say,

886
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 3: maybe a little hole there and they he looks like

887
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,239
Speaker 3: he was trying to tack his edges there with a

888
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 3: rip and an up and under type move. Yeah, Benton's

889
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 3: Benton can play. Yeah, Benton's gonna be useful in week one.

890
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, we're gonna run that one back one

891
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:14,839
Speaker 2: more time, like fourth time here. Wow, sure looks like it. Yeah,

892
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,720
Speaker 2: they got it line to match it up again here. Yeah,

893
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 2: maybe not. Yeah, we got a new center in there.

894
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,800
Speaker 2: They took McCollum was out. That's gonna be the left tackle,

895
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 2: an edge guy. Yeah, good job at the left tackle.

896
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 2: That was against louder Milk. So hm, And that was

897
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 2: McCollum kicking outside. Oh no, he's a he's a guard.

898
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,879
Speaker 2: So oh okay, louder Milk wouldn't be he moved over. Yeah,

899
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,839
Speaker 2: moved over to guard and he's going against Laderman. That's

900
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 2: gonna be tough for the young man. He's okay. Loudermilk

901
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 2: won that one. Like they're challenging McCallum.

902
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:48,799
Speaker 3: I said they must like him. They're like, can waste

903
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 3: time with them if they don't think he can play.

904
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 3: Had an interception down. Yeah, I didn't see exactly how

905
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 3: that happened. That was a.

906
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 2: Trubisky throwing that one. Twenty eight with the interception, that

907
00:40:58,480 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 2: is Miles killerbrew.

908
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 3: So good for him. He's making his team. Oh yeah, yeah,

909
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 3: he's entrenched. Yeah he is.

910
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 2: Uh, I know they're they're you know, he doesn't have

911
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 2: a true spot on defense because he's kind of a

912
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 2: throwback type box safety.

913
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what he was coming out. But he's a

914
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 3: heck of a special teams player. And he was a

915
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:18,879
Speaker 3: real good tester coming out of college too, which goes

916
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 3: a long way on teams to change the direction, speed, acceleration, size, speed.

917
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 3: Really bright guy to have visited him a couple of times,

918
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 3: and he's really well spoken and understands his role, and

919
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 3: that's a big part of it. What smart people do.

920
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,359
Speaker 3: They understand their role and don't try to Yeah, turning

921
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 3: to think they're Troyice play there stripping the ball, there's

922
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 3: twenty five with it.

923
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 2: That's the second time he's put one in the ground

924
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 2: in his practice and that's not going.

925
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 3: To bode well from that for the new guy. Yeah,

926
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 3: new guy stopped putting the ball in the ground. Who

927
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 3: got the strip there? I think it was Roberts okay

928
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 3: forty nine. Yep, it was so good for him. No,

929
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 3: that's Russell that he's showing up. Wow, he's a couple

930
00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 3: players with it.

931
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's one thing you know. I always stress

932
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 2: to the kids I coach now in baseball, like, you

933
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 2: have a different role on every team that you're on, right, right, right,

934
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 2: and the role is going to change.

935
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 3: From even from year to year. You don't have to

936
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 3: accept you don't. I'm sorry. You don't have to like

937
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 3: your role on your team, but you do have to

938
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 3: accept it for the team, right, I mean, if you're

939
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 3: the team. If Scottie Pippen would have been a Celtic,

940
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 3: he would have been a different role than right with

941
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 3: the Bolls. Yeah, it just depends who you're with. I mean,

942
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,280
Speaker 3: then you got to fit that puzzle together.

943
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely, looks like they're getting ready to break off here

944
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 2: for the final couple of team portion here. Maybe this

945
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,320
Speaker 2: is this might be the final session here. The defensive

946
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 2: offensive line working your way over here. We should probably

947
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 2: get the break again before this starts. That way we

948
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 2: can kind of take you through everything and happen down

949
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 2: the homes eleven on eleven drill to finish off practice.

950
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 3: He is Matt Williamson. I am Dale Lolley.

951
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 2: You're listening to the Drive here on Steelers Nation Radio

952
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 2: and ESPN nine to seventy. We are live from Steelers

953
00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 2: training camp here on the campus of Saint Vincent College

954
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 2: and Beautifull lay Trobe, Pennsylvania, and we will be back

955
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 2: with more right after this
