1 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: We welcome you to the Official Titans Podcast, better known 2 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 1: as the OTP. My name is Mike Keith, joined as 3 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: always by Amy Well. Hello Mike, and the head coach 4 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: of Titans Radio, Dave McGinnis. We're glad to have you. 5 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: Thanks so good to have it. This is Patriots Week 6 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: practices preseason game. I want to start off with something 7 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: that we don't usually begin with on the OTP, but 8 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: it is a public service announcement to Titans fans or 9 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: anyone who attends all special events at Nissan Stadium that 10 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: includes football games, concerts, and other sporting events. I'm talking 11 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 1: about the clear bag policy. I never thought we would 12 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: start the OTP with the clear bag policy, but I'm 13 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: doing it. It's important. It is important. So you can 14 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: have a clear bag no larger than twelve by twelve 15 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: by six, which is big enough. So I mean, I 16 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: don't really know what that is. So how big a 17 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: bag is twelve by twelve by six and is the 18 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: larger of the clear bags that you've been seeing for 19 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: the last couple of years at stadiums. So if you 20 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: buy the standard clear bag that you have seen, where 21 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,199 Speaker 1: do you buy? You can get them at team stores. 22 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: You can get them at most sports merchandise places. Clear 23 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: bags are not hard to find. Clear bag twelve by 24 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: twelve by six, Yeah, plenty, big, plenty big. Non transparent 25 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: bags no larger than four and a half by six 26 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: and a half. What does that mean. It's basically the 27 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: size of a postcard. I mean that clutch, Yes, like 28 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: a clutch, a small clutch, a small wristlet clutch, anything 29 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: that you would be able to put your keys, some 30 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: chapstick and cards, and that's about it. And that's what 31 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: you're looking for. So something small, it's a little it's 32 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: smaller than what we've said before, is the palm of 33 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: your hand. This is a little bit smaller than that, 34 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: roughly the size of a postcard. But yeah, that's what 35 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: you're looking for, all right. So don't show up Saturday 36 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: night at Nissan Stadium with a clear bag larger than 37 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: twelve by twelve by six or a non transparent bag 38 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: larger than four and a half by six and a half. 39 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: Here's the solution, that's the clear bag policy. Get your keys, 40 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: get your ID, a credit card, and some cash, put 41 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: it in your pocket and your tickets and go to 42 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: the game. Or your tickets could be on your phone exactly, 43 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: So put your phone in your other pocket. Just wear 44 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: like pants and put stuff in your pocket. Not cargo shorts. 45 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: Cargo shorts are gross, but in this case, for functionality purposes, 46 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: do what you need to do. Dave McGinnis, that's the 47 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: first two and a half minutes of the OTP. Your 48 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: thoughts on the program to this point. First of all, 49 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: I am look. Amy Wells covers the broad spectrum of topics. 50 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: She's a fashion consultant. There's no question she said wristlet 51 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: I like that. I understood what that is. I've seen 52 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: some of those. I understood exactly what she was saying. 53 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: I thought that public service announcement may have been one 54 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: of the best I've ever heard see. But here's why 55 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: I wanted to do it, because I don't want a 56 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: mom or a dad with a kid at Saturday night, 57 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: five thirty trying to get a Nissan stadium and have 58 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: to go back to the car.

But I did want to mention that because 77 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: I just think there are a lot of people who 78 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: don't know. And man, I've been one of those parents 79 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: getting to the gates somewhere for something and having to 80 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: turn and go back to the car and that's a disaster. Well, 81 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: and what you don't want to do it with a 82 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: screaming child. Well, sure, my kids are twenty five and 83 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: almost twenty one, and they still they don't scream anymore, 84 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: but just don't leave your stuff next to the bushes 85 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: or the potted plants, thinking that, oh, no one will 86 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 1: mess with it. I'll just come get it. No, seriously, 87 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: people do this. They'll leave their stuff in the shrubs somewhere, 88 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: and then we have like a whole security issue and 89 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: it's a thing. And then people are mad when they 90 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: come back and their stuff is obviously gone. If they 91 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: can't get in with it, they just leave it. They'll 92 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: leave in the bushes. Yeah, don't do that thinking that 93 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: no one will mess with it. Let's just plan ahead, folks, 94 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: follow the policy. Make everybody's life easier. That's why I 95 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: like working with y'all so well. In every base is covered. Yep, 96 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 1: that's the goal, everybody, that's the goal. We want complete 97 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: information on this program. All right, let's get to practice. 98 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: What a comeback this week for Taywan Taylor wide receiver. 99 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: Woll this this practice? Uh? In full disclosure, I watched 100 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: the defense, our defense, the Titans defense mostly today, okay, 101 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: because I wanted to just see, you know, I wanted 102 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: to watch our defense against Tom Brady, and I wanted 103 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: to watch Brady practice. I've seen Brady play a lot 104 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: of games. I've coached against Brady quite a bit. I 105 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: wanted to see him in practice just to see how 106 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I've been in practice with Joe Montana. I've 107 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: been in practice, you know what. I just wanted to 108 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: see him, and I also wanted to see against our defense. 109 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: So but I did see I did, you know, as 110 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: as the fields are divided where they were, I walked 111 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: over right Taylor. Taylor caught a great eight pass on 112 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: McCarty down the sideline, and then he caught a nice out. 113 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: He had a really nice day today, really nice day. 114 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: And I'm glad you brought that up, because this preseason 115 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: is a series of events that you build on. But 116 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: you don't bury somebody off of You don't elevate somebody 117 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: to new heights, nor do you bury somebody to deep 118 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: depths off of one preseason performance. You don't do it. 119 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: I love the way he bounced back right, Mike. He's 120 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: had a really good week, and I know the preseason 121 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: game will be important for him to continue to show 122 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: under the light, so to speak. But as a former 123 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: coach in this league, when a guy is going the 124 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: wrong way and he was not having a fantastic camp 125 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: going into Philadelphia, and then the Philadelphia game does not 126 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: turn out good for tay One when he comes back 127 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: like this, does it even say something extra about him? 128 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: First of all, let me go to this, Okay, I 129 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: think it says something about Arthur Smith, and I think 130 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: it says something about Rob Moore. Rob Moore his positions 131 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: position coach. Rob played for me in the league when 132 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: I was a head coach. And here's what you do 133 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: with somebody is struggling. You help them get out of 134 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: that struggle and you find out what the problems are, 135 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: you find out what the reasons for the struggle are, 136 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: and then you help the player through it. That's what 137 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: your job as a coach is to help the players. 138 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: It's to help the players. And a lot of times 139 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: help doesn't just mean telling them what to do. It's 140 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: sometimes being able to find out things that are keeping 141 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: them from doing what they want to do. And to 142 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: do that, you have to have a relationship with your 143 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: players and you have to and you have to understand 144 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: what is actually going on with him. Taylan Taylor's got ability. 145 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: He's got ability, and we know that so clearly both 146 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: of those guys were able to pinpoint what the issue 147 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: was and then look, a player is no different than 148 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: any other human being in any other job. If they 149 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: know that, even though they've had a bad performance, if 150 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: you still have confidence in them, they will come back 151 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: and try to reward that confidence. They will reward that confidence. 152 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: If you're constantly be rating a player when he has 153 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: a bad performance, that doesn't do a whole lot for 154 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: them when they're struggling anyway, thoughts Well, Marcus Mariota had 155 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: mentioned Arthur Smith and the way that he has helped 156 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: this entire offense stay kind of even keel throughout all 157 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: of camp. He said that he's told them to not 158 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: ride the roller coaster, kind of get off the ride, 159 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: just kind of live from play to play to play, 160 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: let each one exist in an isolated instance, and then 161 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: move on. So I mean he was speaking in context 162 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: of Taywan Taylor and kind of the highs and lows 163 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: that he has experienced. However, for the offensive coordinator to 164 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: be able to do something like that and to be 165 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: able to manage those emotions a little bit, I think 166 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 1: that says a lot about Arthur Smith, and not only 167 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: just him as a coach, but him in a familiarity 168 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: with the guys that he has on offense, and that's 169 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,319 Speaker 1: a credit to him just physically being around these guys 170 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: so much so, I think that's helpful. Speaking of Arthur Smith, 171 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: what about the story that came out this week that 172 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: on the play where A. J. Brown was injured, Arthur 173 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: Smith dogged him, not knowing he was injured, thinking he 174 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: was just being lazy. And then Arthur has come back 175 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: and apologized and talked about it publicly. How he needed 176 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: to apologize as openly as he did. I don't know 177 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: that I've ever heard that. I'll tell you what. It 178 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: makes me feel bad for Arthur because I know that 179 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: he is such a nice guy. He is such a 180 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: nice man, and so for him to be getting onto 181 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 1: a player trying to help push him forward and then 182 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: realize tempo right, and then realizing what was actually going on, 183 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: it just makes my little heart hurt for him, because 184 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: I know that he is not the type of human 185 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: or coach who would dog a guy who was legitimately 186 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: trying or who was legitimately working. Look, I've coached a 187 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: lot of players, and I will say this, and this 188 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: is not saying anything to elevate what I was as 189 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: a coach, But all the players that I've ever coached, 190 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: they've all said, I would love to come play for 191 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 1: you again, and I would dog them constantly, but they 192 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: knew I was doing it to try to improve them. 193 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: This was a young player that Arthur really didn't know yet. 194 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: And plus, when you bring a rookie in and just 195 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: like you're trying it, you're trying. You're trying to set 196 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: and not only a tempo, you are trying to get 197 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: a mindset going, you know. And Arthur was right in 198 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: what he was doing, because the big thing, the big 199 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: thing that rookies have to learn when they come into 200 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: this league is it's not only about beginning anything, it's 201 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: about finishing it right and finishing it at full Arthur 202 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: didn't realize he was you know, he was hurt. But 203 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: as soon as he did that to me is just 204 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,199 Speaker 1: like when John Robinson is willing to put everything out 205 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: there to make a draft pick and if it doesn't work, 206 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: guess what he'll do. I was wrong and that's what 207 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: he did. And plus, let me say something else. You 208 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: both know Arthur's wife, she told Arthur, you'll tell him sorry. 209 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: She's the best. In the course of your career, there's 210 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: a head coach or a coordinator, a position coach. Did 211 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: you ever have an instance like that where you dogged 212 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: the guy out and then found out his dog had 213 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 1: passed away or something, you know, something horrible had happened, 214 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: and a great, great question, And as anything else you 215 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: ask me, because of thirty four years of doing this, 216 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: I've normally experienced it. I jumped Mike's singletary so hard 217 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: one day an individual because he was always the leader 218 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: going through the bags, and he would look horrible going 219 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: through the bags, and I, you know, he always wanted 220 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: to be first in line, and I told him, I said, Mike, 221 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: if you can't do any better than that, just get 222 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: the back of the line. I don't want that's embarrassing 223 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: to me and to you. Looked at what, didn't say 224 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: a word, and then you know, about four minutes later, 225 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: the trainer came over sid coach Mack. Mike's singletary nearly 226 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: tore is growing, but he won't not practice. You might 227 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: want to win, I went, Mike, how did you finish it? Mike? 228 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: I wasn't only wrong, I was really wrong. So yes, 229 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: that's a big thing for credibility with the guys. Look, 230 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: look with the guys, if you're willing as a coach 231 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: to to to not present the idea that you're infallible, 232 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: that you will actually absolutely if you're wrong, say you're wrong, 233 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: and if you don't know, say you don't know. They 234 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: respect that much more than trying to be the all 235 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: almighty on top with your You know, your your omniscient, 236 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: and you can't you can't be wrong. That's not what 237 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: you do. Good coaches don't do it. You can be hard, 238 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: but you've got to be fair, and you've also got 239 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: to understand circumstances, especially where in the pros you're all 240 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: grown men, completely grown men, and you know the rookies 241 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 1: are different because it's just different coming in. But at 242 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: the same time, you know what Arthur has done now 243 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: with A. J. Brown, he has developed a line of 244 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: respect that will never end as long as he coaches. 245 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: It's a good point. Speaking of rookies, what about the 246 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: Patriots sending the rookies over to sing Happy Birthday to 247 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: Mike Vrabel on Wednesday? How about Bill Belichick sending do 248 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: you think that's who did it? Well, sure it was. 249 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: You don't think it was an assistant or it doesn't matter. 250 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: I loved it. I absolutely loved it. I mean, to me, 251 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: it was perfect. That tells you the one thing too, 252 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: how much respect as Patriots organization has for Mike Vrabel. 253 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: That's true. Yeah, I mean that's just all there is 254 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: to it. I mean that that to me, when you're 255 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: working against another team, if it's I've done this a 256 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: lot in my career. When it's adversarial between head coaches 257 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: and adversarial between staffs, you get no work done. There's 258 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 1: so much respect between these two staffs and these two organizations. 259 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: You can just you can sense it, you can see 260 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: it out here. But when they sent him over to 261 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: do that, I absolutely loved it. Well, Mac brings up 262 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: a good point. Regardless of whose idea it was and 263 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: who like orchestrated the whole thing, there is not a 264 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: single thing that happens on Bill Belichick's practice field that 265 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: he has not approved. So somewhere along the line, someone 266 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: said we have this idea, and he said do it. 267 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: So I think that that was such a cool thing 268 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: for the entire Patriots organization to allow to happen and 269 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: kind of say, yeah, that'd be a funny way. Plus, 270 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: I liked that was all rookies. It was really weird too, 271 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 1: because they were all standing there and there was a camera, 272 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: and you were like, surely they're not posing there. This 273 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: is the Patriots. The rookies are not posing for this camera. 274 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: That's there's what they do. I thought they were lost. 275 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: I one thought these kids have just come out of 276 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: the bubble or wherever they die. But I'm saying, did 277 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: you see them waiting? Yes, it was very strange because 278 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: You're like, why are they just standing there? But they were. 279 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: They were waiting on Mike Vrabele. Speaking of Belichick, I 280 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: don't know were you there in time for his not 281 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: get there in press conference? Amy Wells and I got 282 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: to experience a Bill Belichick news conference, which now my 283 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: bucket list is, you know, one about it, one less 284 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: item because I when I found out he was going 285 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: to do a media availability, I should I have to 286 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: be I have to see what this is like. And 287 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: it did not disappoint Amy. It did not disappoint in 288 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: that there was zero information provided in that media experience, 289 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: nothing like. I did not walk out of there with 290 00:15:54,360 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: one iota of information that I didn't have beforehand. People 291 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: would ask a question about Tom Brady and he all 292 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: but said, Yep, Tom Brady's on this team. Next question, 293 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: like nothing, Why do you say some master master at it? 294 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: I mean because he has completely he has. You talk 295 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: about a coach that has reached the heights in this 296 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: league and is completely shut off the elevator music. I mean, 297 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: it doesn't even I mean, it doesn't even ding him 298 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: at all. And it's just no problem. And he moves 299 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: right on forward. And if you've ever been around Bill 300 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: Belichick outside of press conference, really a good dude, really 301 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: a good dude. Everybody says, very funny, funny and a 302 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: smart dude and very I mean, but he doesn't want 303 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: any distractions, and he doesn't. I mean, just he'll do 304 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: the press conference and then he'll be done. Is it 305 00:16:54,840 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 1: a game? It feels almost like like he's messing with 306 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: the entire like system, like this is a circus. He 307 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: doesn't want to be a part of it. So he 308 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: is just going to play these sorry SAPs who keep 309 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 1: coming back for more. Think the more you come back, 310 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: the less I'm talking. You do. Not think that's it, 311 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: that's it at all. But he is going to be 312 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: He's he Look, he knows as much as he's done 313 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: and with all the trophies they've got, there's going to 314 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: be enough news anyway. Yeah, he's not going to create news. 315 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: He's not going to create news. He's a lot like 316 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: He's a little bit like except in a different vein 317 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,239 Speaker 1: like Popovich is. Okay, he's going to direct. He's going 318 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: to direct the press conference, all right, But he's not 319 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: going to be the news until he wants to be. 320 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 1: There are times you guys have heard and been if 321 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: you and I know you guys pay attention to everything. 322 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: Some of his press conferences, he's delivered some real messages 323 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: to his team, and he's also delivered some real messages 324 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,719 Speaker 1: at times to the league in his press conferences. But 325 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 1: if he doesn't really have a message to deliver, he's 326 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: not going to make news. He knows that the team 327 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: is news enough. I covered Pat Summit. She's the greatest 328 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: women's basketball coach in history. Ever, I don't think it's close. 329 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: Had she stayed healthy and still with it and would 330 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 1: be coaching now, she'd probably won three four more titles, 331 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: which means three or four less for other programs. She's 332 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,239 Speaker 1: so special. The question I ask, and this is so 333 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: broad because we're in the hundredth year of the NFL. 334 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: But in within five years, Bill Belichick is going to 335 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: be the winning as coach in NFL history. More than 336 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: likely he's their general manager. Are we going to be 337 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: able to make a very logical argument that he's the 338 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 1: best football coach ever? Yes, especially with what he's dealt with. 339 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: He has done it in an age of salary cap 340 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: right and free agency, and thirty two teams an age 341 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: of salary cap and free agency, because you know, you 342 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: go back to the great teams of the Bears, the 343 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers Dallas see Jimmy Johnson did all of 344 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: his before free agency and before the salary cap. And 345 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 1: as a former head coach, I can tell you those 346 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: are constraining factors and you have to learn. And as 347 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: you said, he's the general manager. He knows how to 348 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 1: manipulate that and work that too. My answer is yes, 349 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: he is the best, the best. Tom Brady's six Super Bowls. 350 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: That's more than anybody. Right now, he's tied with three 351 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: other players, bless you, He's tied with three other players 352 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: for the most NFL titles in history. These are pretty good. 353 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: The other three guys who've won six NFL titles her 354 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: battery Green Bay in Dallas, Fuzzy Thurston, the Great Guard 355 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: for the Packers, and Forrest Gregg also Green Bay in Dallas. 356 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 1: It's pretty pretty interesting list. Watching Brady practice is really something. 357 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: He really works hard. Even playing catch, He's doing different 358 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 1: things being around and I mean, the guy is um. 359 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it was a it's been a beautiful thing 360 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: to have a chance to watch him work in that way. 361 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: It's clear he's somebody who takes his craft that seriously. 362 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,239 Speaker 1: Well that's a great observation, Mike. And that's exactly why 363 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: I wanted to watch him, Because I said, I've practiced 364 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: against and been on the field with some of the greats, 365 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: you know, in the practices we've had before, spent a 366 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 1: whole week in Berlin with with the forty nine ers 367 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: every day watching Montana do the same thing. I wanted 368 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: to watch him. I just wanted to watch him work. 369 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: I wanted to watch him from the many stepped on 370 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: the field to what he did. And you're you're one 371 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 1: hundred percent right. There's nothing he does on that field 372 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: that doesn't pertain to his craft. Nothing and then except 373 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 1: harass Mike Vrabel and be harassed back by Mike. I 374 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: loved it. That was a beautiful thing. Started it, Oh, 375 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: he totally started. Rabel started it and and Brady finished it. 376 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: It was out. Yeah, Vrabel didn't exactly help his defense 377 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: by starting it. I don't because that made Brady want 378 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: to go get him and he Grabel wanted to do that. Yeah, 379 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: he wanted to do that. I would have loved to 380 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: coach Mike Rabel. That's exactly kind of dude you'd want 381 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 1: on your team. He's a he's a he's a head coach. 382 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: That he's a good head coach. But yeah, and he 383 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,959 Speaker 1: and Brady were teammates and so but he got that 384 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: going quick. Rabel got that going well. Between Rabel and 385 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Brady talking trash and j Mac and whoever he could 386 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: find who was a former Titan, there was so much 387 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:35,120 Speaker 1: trash talk flying around the field. It was awesome. I 388 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: loved it. The thing about it is Amy, and you 389 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,679 Speaker 1: bring this up. There might have been a lot of chirping, 390 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: but there was work going on. There was. It was 391 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: not it wasn't distracting and both this this I loved 392 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: watching this practice. And we'll talk about this in a minute. 393 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: You know, I know you've got it. Uh, some things 394 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: you want to talk about here, Mike. But the way 395 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: they programmed this practice. Did you see Mike Rabel stop 396 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,959 Speaker 1: that one group from going until the other clock got 397 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: SYNCD up over here? Wait a minute, I mean this 398 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: thing was so in lockstep and SYNCD up. And that's 399 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: because both of these head coaches are very close to 400 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,239 Speaker 1: each other. They're very you know, they they're on the 401 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: same wavelength. They're both very comfortable in their own skins 402 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: as head coaches, and they were also comfortable enough in 403 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: their own skins to let the other head coach talk 404 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: to their team if they wanted to. You know what 405 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I love this professional Oh more than professional. 406 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: It was. It was precise well put. All right, let's 407 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 1: hit some offensive topics to begin. Most encouraging sign that 408 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 1: you've seen from the offense so far in this camp, 409 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 1: Amy wells Adam Humphries just as a person as a weapon. 410 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: He has been more than advertised for me. He's come 411 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: in and done exactly what we were told he was 412 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 1: going to do. He's been effective, he's been consistent. Him 413 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: and Marcus have a great rapport. He gives me hope. 414 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: Adam Humphries does I like it Arthur Smith as quickly 415 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: as he got in rhythm and flow as a play caller. 416 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: We've watched it all from OTA's I mean I've watched 417 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 1: him very close, from OTAs through our training camp, through 418 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: the first preseason game. Arthur's on top of what he's doing. 419 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: He's on top of what he's doing. And you could 420 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: see we had eighty nine plays in that Philadelphia game. 421 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: They were rolling through plays. Now, a lot of that 422 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: determines your defense is playing well. You're getting the ball back, 423 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 1: you're able to move the chains. As what Amy says 424 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: with Adam Humphries, those things are all important. But this 425 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: coordinator's job fits Arthur Smith. It's not too big for 426 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: him at all. That's what I like. All Right. A 427 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: couple of questions about offensive statistics, one of which I'm 428 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 1: going to hit that we did on the Mike Rabel's 429 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: show the other night. Let me start with this. The 430 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: Titans had Derek Henry, who gained over a thousand yards 431 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: last year rushing. He was one of nine backs to 432 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 1: gain a thousand yards. Twenty two receivers went over a 433 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: thousand yards. Twenty two thousand yard receivers only nine thousand 434 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: yard backs. The Titans have not had a thousand yard 435 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: receivers since Delaney Walker in twenty sixteen. They haven't had 436 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 1: a thousand yard wide receiver in six years total. They 437 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: haven't had a wide receiver go over eleven hundred yards 438 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: since back to Derek Mason years ago. So my question 439 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: is yes or no from what you've seen Dave McGinnis, 440 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 1: will the Titans have a thousand yard receiver this year? Yes, 441 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 1: no problem. Well, look, if you got a receiver that 442 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: plays sixteen games, do the math. If you get sixty 443 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 1: two and a half yards a game for sixteen games, 444 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: that's a thousand yards, right, correct? Correct. We've got guys 445 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: that can do that, and also Arthur can administer this 446 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: offense like I think you can. And I said, if 447 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: they stay healthy and on the field for sixteen games, 448 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: that's something that's important. The list you talked about the 449 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: receivers last year in the league that had a thousand 450 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: yards I would bet a good majority of those guys 451 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: played all sixteen games. That's critical. If you will add 452 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 1: that caveat in there, if we've got a receiver that 453 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: plays all sixteen games, I think yes, yes or no? 454 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: I think yes. With a caveat Ah. Yes, Jim, I 455 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: know I'm assuming his roles of not playing by the rules. 456 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 1: I wrote down yes on my little paper right here. 457 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,159 Speaker 1: I've made a note and said yes. However, as I 458 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: think about it and thinking about how many weapons this 459 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: team could have on offense and all of the different 460 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: ways that they can be utilized, and how much I 461 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: think Arthur Smith is going to try to spread the 462 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: ball around and do a lot of different things, it 463 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: could be no, just because there are so many different 464 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: people involved. So what's your answer, yes or no? I mean, 465 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: my answer still yes. Okay, thank you, so moving right 466 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 1: along and taking it a step further. If this offense 467 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: goes up the way we think it can, if this 468 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: pass game takes off the way the Titans hope up 469 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: from one hundred eighty six yards per game last year, 470 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: which they need to do, could there be two thousand 471 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: yard receivers in this offense, something that has never been 472 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: done by this organization in the Titans era, Because as 473 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 1: coach said, it's just sixty two and a half yards 474 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: a game, So it's not crazy. Amy's gonna Amy's gonna 475 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: She's gonna say no. I'm gonna say no. Based on 476 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: what I just I will say yes, but if we 477 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: have that, we're not gonna have a thousand yard Russia. Okay, 478 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: all right, fair enough, but because the whole thing, and 479 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: this is what we talked about on the Rabel Show. Amy, 480 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've heard this stat Last year, 481 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: the Titans average nineteen point four points per game. The 482 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: six AFC playoff teams average twenty seven point six per game. 483 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: I want to stat where the Titans have to get better. 484 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,959 Speaker 1: They got to score more. Somebody asked me, you know, 485 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: last night in Clarksville, I was at a function for 486 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: the Clarksville High Alumni Association. They said, how are we 487 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: going to beat Andrew Luck? And I said, your offense 488 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: has to step up. I don't think it's as much 489 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: on the defense is. And coach Max said it on 490 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: the Vaybel Show the other night. You're just not gonna 491 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: win thirteen to seven anymore. In this league. You have 492 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: got to go score. And that's why some of the 493 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 1: you know, getting the passing game rolling, making these things 494 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 1: happen in order to get the point total up. I 495 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 1: think it's the biggest key to going from good to great. 496 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely I agree with that one. I mean, how many 497 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: of these games have we had as a Titans team 498 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: where it's low scoring and there's not a lot of 499 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: points being generated and there's a really small margin between 500 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: the two teams and how many points are scored. That's 501 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 1: not going to happen as much anymore, just because of 502 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 1: the way that the game is evolving. You've got to 503 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: score points to win the game. That is the point. 504 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: And it sounds very basic, but the more points you 505 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 1: can go, put go and put on the board, the 506 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: better off you're going to be. The thing I will 507 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 1: say about this, if everybody is healthy, that's everybody that 508 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: John Robinson has assembled right now now offensive side of 509 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 1: the ball, that will be touching the football to score points. 510 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: If all of those people are are available, you've got 511 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: the people to do it with. You've got the types 512 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: of people to do it with, coming out of the backfield, 513 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: coming in the middle of the field, taking off and 514 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: taking the top off of a defense. You've got those people. Now, 515 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: our listeners again, listen to me. I said, if they're 516 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: all healthy and performing. If they are not, and then 517 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: you are relegated and are made to give the ball 518 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: to certain places and you have to play the game 519 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: a certain way because of who you have available. Then 520 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 1: that makes it a big difference. That's a whole lot 521 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: of difference. Like when we played Houston last year when 522 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: we had go to the wildcat, we weren't going to 523 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: score twenty seven points or throw d no. So those 524 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: things I'm saying. If everything goes according to Hoyle and 525 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: these people that they've assembled and that John Robinson has 526 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: assembled offensively to be able to move the football, if 527 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: they are all healthy, we've got a chance to do that. 528 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: All right, Let's go to defense. A mighty bledsoew number 529 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: ninety five. Who is a mighty bledsoe Dave McGinnis, And 530 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 1: why are we seeing so much of him right now? 531 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: Because they think he's a versatile player. This guy, first 532 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: of all, in college at Oklahoma, he's not a real twit, 533 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: twitchy guy in the defensive line. Defensive line, he's not 534 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: a real twitchy guy. But he is a technician. That's 535 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: what he was in college. He's got length to him. 536 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: And here's the other thing with a he can be 537 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: versatile in this defense with another year of this weight program. 538 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: Now they're they're playing him right now against top tier players. 539 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: They want to see him. They want to see exactly 540 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: what they have. And I'm to say this and not 541 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: to disparage any college football program or any conference, but 542 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: you guys both know, if you're playing defense in the 543 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: Big Twelve, you're basically just giving your offense a rest 544 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: by the time they're out there, because that's an offensive conference, 545 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: it really is. But this guy has got length, he's 546 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: got enough, he's got enough saying to him that he 547 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: can be a guy that can hold his ground, especially 548 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: if they get him like they want him in the 549 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: weight room here, and what they're doing now, they realize 550 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: and see the versatility that they may have in this guy. 551 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: So they want to really test him against top tier 552 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: talent right now. That's why you're seeing him being elevated 553 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: in this and he's got a chance. I'm not saying. Look, 554 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: he was a free agent. Okay, he was a free agent. 555 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: He was not invited to the combine. Okay. But they 556 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: see some traits that they like. Now they're wanting to 557 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: see where those traits can go. We had a weird 558 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: situation at Oklahoma. Is suspended for suspended for a year, 559 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: lost year of eligibility, losing a case to the NC DOUBLEA. 560 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: He's only twenty one, and you're like, is this guy 561 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: a steel You're always looking for these players whose better 562 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 1: days are ahead of them in the National Football League, 563 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: and maybe Bledsoe is we will see this. Uh, certainly 564 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: is an important time, an important stretch of time for him. 565 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: Next question, how is Wesley Woodyard going to be used 566 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: in the twenty nineteen Titans defense? Without giving away because 567 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: I get to watch all the practices with you guys, 568 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: and so well, don't give it away. I'm not going to, 569 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: but I'm just saying there are going to be so 570 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: many variations of this defense that you are going to 571 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: see this year. Week to week to week. We are 572 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: probably watching two of the masters as far as Amba defenses, 573 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: and by that I mean they're going to be very 574 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: malleable week to week to week depending on who you 575 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: play in Bill Belichick and deanps these two guys are 576 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: some of the best in the league at it. They 577 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: really are. You're westy Woodard will be a big piece 578 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: of this defense because there are so many piece to 579 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: it depending on your opponent week to week to week well, 580 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: and in a defense that has so many looks and 581 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: so many different evolutions, and is constantly moving and changing. 582 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: Having a guy with eyes that are as seasoned as 583 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: Wesley Woodyards on the field, on the sidelines with guy 584 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: I mean Jayon Brown's in his third year. Rashaun Evans 585 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: is only in his second year, I mean Harold Landry Sharif. 586 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: I could go on and on. Guys are younger out there, 587 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: which is great, But having his perspective, his set of eyes, 588 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: and his knowledge base to be able to help these 589 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: guys and show them the different things that he's seeing. 590 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: You can even see it on the sidelines during games. 591 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: He is constantly working. He's constantly got the whatever it is, 592 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: the little surface iPad in his hands. I mean, he 593 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: is constantly constantly working, coaching, helping, calling things out. I 594 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: don't think we can underestimate how valuable that is to 595 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: that group specifically. That's such a great point, such a 596 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: great point, and let me just take that value into 597 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: the meeting rooms during the week, into the meeting rooms 598 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: during the week, because you have to have some veteran 599 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: players I've had in my whole career, some veteran players 600 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: that are able to take all of the information that 601 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: you are giving and be able to disseminate it to 602 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: some of the younger players, saying, hey, here's what you 603 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: concentrate on this week. Great, here's what you look at 604 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: this week. I know coach Mike has given you this. Now, 605 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: this is this is from a big, thirty thousand foot view, 606 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,719 Speaker 1: But let me tell you for you, here's what you 607 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: look at. Here's what you look for. Here's what I've 608 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: seen invaluable. Finally, outside linebacker DeAndre Walker, put on injured 609 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: reserve out for the year, thought just in most circles, 610 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: that he was going to be the fifth outside linebacker. 611 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: Is it possible that John Robinson and Mike Vrabel decide 612 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: to only carry four outside linebackers on this roster? Now, yes, 613 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: because of Rashaan Evans, okay, and because of the multiplicity 614 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: of this defense. I mean, don't this this type of 615 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: defense that Dean P's runs. You cannot just peg positions 616 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,280 Speaker 1: to where people are going to be. Does that make sense? 617 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: You cannot peg positions just because you know, if Amy Wells, 618 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: just because she's got outside linebacker next to her name, 619 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: that's not necessarily where she is going to line up. 620 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: That's what some of our offense was seeing today in 621 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: their first little taste of the Patriots defense. They've got 622 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: guys with different numbers lining up a lot of different places. 623 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: That's what Dean Peace will do when it starts being 624 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: for real. I'm really excited because Coachmack took exactly what 625 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: I was going to say and we didn't even talk 626 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 1: about it first. How about that? Huh? Look at you there? 627 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: It is thinking like a coaching like a coach. Coach, 628 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: you've trained her well, good job, all right? So now 629 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 1: the most fun question in the history of the OTP, 630 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: the most fun, most fun in the in the what 631 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,919 Speaker 1: is it? Eighteen month history of the OTP. I'm glad 632 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm here for the most fun and Amy Wells, you 633 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: get to go first. Yes, what or who have you 634 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: been most wrong about in this training camp? I was 635 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: most wrong about the heat that we weren't going to 636 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: encounter during this training camp. This you went for the heat. 637 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:19,240 Speaker 1: That answer to this question, so just overheat. You're wrong 638 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 1: about anything that you go with the heat like you're 639 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: a meteorologists. Been wrong about the leather, I've been inappropriately dressed. 640 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: I'm overheating. I'm cooked. So nothing about football or the 641 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: football team or football. No, I was spot on with 642 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 1: all of that. But the way that I am dressed 643 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: out at camp is a true crime. I am just 644 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: I'm horrified with myself. That's what they said. I cannot 645 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 1: gauge what the temperature is going to feel. She doesn't 646 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 1: give an inch, does she? She's the best? Uh? You 647 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 1: want to go, yes, what are you? What are you 648 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 1: going to say? The tents out here or the the lights? 649 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: You were most wrong about the lights. Amy and I 650 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 1: haven't told Okay, I say Mac, I say him Mac 651 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: from Chattanooga. I did not realize really what he was. 652 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: I underestimated what he was when they when they signed him. 653 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 1: Because when you watch him, I mean, and then you 654 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: go back and you and you research his history of 655 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 1: production in college. This guy's a disruptor. And you've seen it. 656 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: You saw in the first preseason game. You can see 657 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: it some out here. I really, you know, I I 658 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: think I just wasn't tuned in. I mean, I was 659 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 1: looking beyond some other things. But when you just continue 660 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: to watch him, he's an interesting dude. For me, it's 661 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: Kareem or another another Chattanooga guy. And I blew it 662 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: on him because I didn't read the research that I 663 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 1: had even done myself. He has been a guy who's 664 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: made plays in camp. He's shown up, but we really 665 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: shouldn't be surprised. He's he's a Chattanooga native, but he 666 00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 1: played well at Arizona State as a freshman six interceptions, 667 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: Freshman All American, was an all you know it was 668 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: an also cond player at Chattanooga. He's got decent size. 669 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: I thought he was smaller than what he was. You know, 670 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,240 Speaker 1: you're thinking sitting here, thinking, well, he's this little corner. 671 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,240 Speaker 1: It's five eleven, one ninety five, which is just fine. 672 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: That's good enough size. Um, he's the guy's a contender. 673 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: And did you watch him in today out here? I did. 674 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: That's against Brady out here in this seven he's battling 675 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: make plays. You're right, And you just wonder if they 676 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: only keep four outside linebackers, do they keep another corner 677 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: or do they keep another defensive lineman. They're gonna keep 678 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: another something, another something. They only keep four though, that's 679 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: exactly right. Yeah, and it's gonna be on defense, keep 680 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: another something on defense, and so it may mean you know, 681 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I was wrong. I mean I 682 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: they signed him as a tryout player. I met a 683 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,720 Speaker 1: member of his family at a deal at the Rieman 684 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: the night they signed him. And it's really a great 685 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 1: story because, um, the family was just so pumped, you know, 686 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: so thankful that this had happened. So it's this great 687 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 1: story and I'm like, why didn't I believe in this 688 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: right away? And we'll see how he does the rest 689 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,399 Speaker 1: of the way. I mean, Isaiah Mac and Kareem Wore 690 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: are not chewins for anything. They are promised nothing but 691 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:24,919 Speaker 1: probably another day, which which every undrafted is. But I 692 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: I didn't know I was wrong, you know with Isaiah Man. 693 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not the heat when wow, we can't 694 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,479 Speaker 1: we can't touch her. She's so far above us. When wow. 695 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: When you Isaiah Mac, though, when you watch him at 696 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: practice and you look at him standing there from behind, 697 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: it looks a lot like Jarell Casey. And if you'll 698 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: remember when way back when we'd drafted Jarell Casey, there 699 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: were people throughout the league that didn't think Jarell Casey 700 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,439 Speaker 1: was going to be because of it. There were people 701 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: who thought he's picked too high, and he was picked 702 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 1: in the third round. They thought he's picked way too high, 703 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 1: and they thought, you know this guy's you know, this 704 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: guy's stature, shorter stature, you know, you know not, you know, 705 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: not a guy that that fits the mold. Well, anyway, 706 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 1: good stuff, except for the heat that was he was 707 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: too hot. It's too hot outside, Amy, I'm really upset 708 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: about it. First of all, I'm really glad you were 709 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: thinking like I was on that. Yeah, that was good. 710 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: And then I like that you brought you brought the 711 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: heat into it, because that completely I'm always bringing the heat. 712 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:33,879 Speaker 1: She's bringing the heat. Mike Keith gyro completely every now 713 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: and then. You got me. I like to make sure 714 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 1: to keep Mike Keith on his and the clear bag policy. 715 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,720 Speaker 1: Remember clear bags twelve by twelve by six, no larger 716 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: non transparent bags four and a half by six and 717 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 1: a half. We have hit the clear bag policy. If 718 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,440 Speaker 1: you don't know about the clear bag policy now it 719 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 1: is your own fault for not subscribing to the OTP. 720 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,240 Speaker 1: We tried everything we could. If your stuff's in the bushes, 721 00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: we're going to take it. We tried. Unless it's too hot, Nam, 722 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 1: he's not dressed right, well, it's possible, it's possible. Put 723 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 1: some little fans in there for Dave McGinnis and Amy Wells. 724 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,280 Speaker 1: My name is Mike Keith.
