1 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: This is the OTP presented by Farm Bureau Health Plans. 2 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: Farm Bureau Health Plans has been serving members and protecting 3 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 1: their health for seventy five years. Learned about our Tennessee 4 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: roots at FBHP dot com with Amy Wells. I'm Mike Keith, 5 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 1: and this is technically the first edition of the OTP 6 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 1: of the Week, Right. We did one with Rhet Brian 7 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: on Monday. It was going to be posted first thing 8 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: on Tuesday, but when Damar Hamblin went down Monday night 9 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati, we chose not to post that podcast. Yeah, 10 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: and the reason we didn't is because we're cutting up 11 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: with Ratt and it just didn't seem like the right 12 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: thing to do. Wasn't anything disrespectful in it, but it 13 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: just it didn't feel right, agreed, and so we didn't 14 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: post it. And we apologize that. We've sort of been 15 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: out of the way for a couple of days, but 16 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 1: we're back. We certainly have a lot of things Titans 17 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,839 Speaker 1: related to talk about. I just want to say one 18 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: thing in relation to Monday night in Cincinnati, just because 19 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: I have tremendous admiration for what I saw from so 20 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: many people, I mean, the first responders, I mean unbelievable 21 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: what they did on the field, and to hear the 22 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: medical experts talk about how good they were recognizing what 23 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: had happened, going to the emergency measures right away, not hesitating. 24 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: Absolutely phenomenal job by them. I'm not a person in medicine. 25 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: I don't know all of the terms. Your dad is 26 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: a doctor, my wife is a nurse, and so we 27 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: have people around us who certainly appreciate that sort of professionalism. 28 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: The professionalism I want to talk about for just a second. 29 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: The people on ESP absolutely what they did throughout the 30 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: course of the I guess realistically a little over two 31 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: hours was some of the finest professionalism that I've ever seen. 32 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: That was so difficult because not only was the situation 33 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: so dire immediately, but that you had no updated information 34 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: in that instance, and what is the tendency in that 35 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: moment to speculation and they did not do that and 36 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: to be able to conduct themselves as professionally. It's as 37 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: final moment as Joe Buck has ever had as a broadcaster, 38 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: and he's called Super Bowls in the World Series. Lisasaulters 39 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: is one of the ten best reporters in anything anywhere 40 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: period and she was at the top of her game. 41 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: From a professionalism standpoint, Susie Calber, somebody we've both met 42 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: and admire. Wow, yep, I mean, what else can you 43 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: say about her handling that situation? You felt like you 44 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: were as a viewer, You were engaged with the situation, 45 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: You had a sense of the severity, but you didn't 46 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: have somebody a making it about themselves, be throwing out 47 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: a lot of rumors. It was just on point, and 48 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: for what we do for a living, when you see 49 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: somebody conduct themselves in that manner, and it was really 50 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: top to bottom, it was really top to bottom throughout 51 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: their entire crew. Tory Aikman did a nice job. I 52 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: thought Adam Schefter, who's not always known for a velvet touch, 53 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: I thought he kept things in perspective and provided some 54 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: specific newsworthiness. When they were showing the conversation with Donna 55 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: Ponte and the coaches down there, there were a lot 56 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: of questions about why the league didn't go faster, And 57 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: what people don't realize about that situation is there was 58 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: nobody on site at pay Core Stadium who can call 59 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: that game right one hundred percent. I mean, there are 60 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: there are layers of communication that you have to go 61 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: through that span geographic area. I mean, you're you're talking 62 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: with people in New York, you're talking with people on site. 63 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: There's a lot of communication that needs to have and 64 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: all of that is happening basically via telephone. Sure, so 65 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: there's there's some lag time just in you've got to 66 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: get in touch with everybody and the connections need to 67 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: be made in that sense, one hundred percent. The broadcast 68 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: overall and the way that it was handled was incredible. 69 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: The way that Susie Coolber was able to direct things 70 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: and keep you feeling like you were constantly being informed, 71 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: even if there's not necessarily new information. But she directed 72 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: traffic so well, she handled where they needed to be. 73 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: She reset a lot in making sure that if you 74 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: were just tuning in, because I would wager there are 75 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: a lot of people who weren't necessarily watching that game. 76 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: It was the first quarter of the game. I mean 77 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: I wasn't you see. I got a text message because 78 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: I was actually doing something upstairs and I was getting 79 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: ready to come downstairs and put the TV on, and 80 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: Philip Noel from our Titans radio broadcast team said something 81 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: on our group yeah text, And I was like, what's 82 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: going on? And so I immediately walked downstairs and my 83 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: daughter was in another room, and I said, do you 84 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: mind if I turned the TV on because I want 85 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: to see what's going on? And then we were just captivated. 86 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: And Ryan Clark's part of it too, because he had 87 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: been through what he went through as a stealer with 88 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: the sickle cell, where he went down and nobody knew 89 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: what was going on and it turned it out to 90 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: be sickle cell, and then he couldn't go play in 91 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: Denver later in his career because they worry about the 92 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: altitude affecting someone with sickle cell. I thought his perspective 93 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: was unique, but he didn't try to make it Ryan 94 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: Clark right, right, I mean, this was something so different. 95 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 1: There was no precedent, which is again what makes the 96 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: broadcaster so impressive to me, because when you are trying 97 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: to inform people about a situation and you don't have 98 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: a lot of information to share, the tendency is a 99 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: to speculate, which nobody did, and you try to pull 100 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: on similar situations, other touch points, other areas of precedent 101 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: to try and fill in gaps or give you a 102 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: reason for thinking in a certain way. That you're doing, 103 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: that you're thinking, and for there to be no precedent 104 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: and for there to be no additional information really to 105 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: provide for an hour and to know that this is 106 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: a medical situation. And even for someone like Lisa Saulter, 107 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: she's seeing things that are not reportable, she's also seeing 108 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: things that you don't want to share well. And that's 109 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: the other point is for having worked in television and 110 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: you have two you know there were people in their 111 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: ear telling them all different sorts of things. Yeah, oh yeah, 112 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: you need to stand by because we're hearing X, or 113 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: we're hearing why, or we're hearing Z. And so you're 114 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: afraid to say something simply from the standpoint that it 115 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: is going to directly be contradicted by the facts that 116 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: could be coming next. Right, So for them to be 117 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: able to take all of the information of the moment, 118 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: everything that's going on, sticks strictly to what was happening 119 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: in front of them, and handle it in such a 120 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: way that communicated the severity of the moment without going 121 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: over the top and being overly dramatic, but appropriately communicating 122 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: what was happening and explaining it for people who were 123 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: just finding out on Twitter or sauce in a group 124 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: text or on social media that there's something going on 125 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: you need to tune in. They brought viewers in as 126 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: they were tuning in and filled them in with the 127 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: information and then died an incredible job of just waiting. 128 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: And that crew will be in Jacksonville Saturday night. It'll 129 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: be Joe Buck and Troy Aikman and Lisa's Salters. And 130 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: we've got to know Lisa a little bit. She's a 131 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: fantastically nice person and got lee. I mean, you meet her. 132 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: I made mention to Charles Davis about her at one 133 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: point about something and he goes, oh, guys, she goes, 134 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: I think I would be so nervous if I met 135 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: Lisa Salters, because in our industry she's gold standard. She's 136 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: one of those people. She walks in room, you go, 137 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: oh wow, that's Lisa Salters. Yeah, I mean, she's got 138 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: the goods and probably not from the standpoint of necessarily 139 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: the audience. She's a journalists, journalist because of how she 140 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: goes about her job, and just such an impressive, impressive 141 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: job by them, and um, not going to go real 142 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: deep in what we know about the Hamlin prognosis, right, 143 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: now because you may hear this a couple of days 144 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: after the fact, but it I mean, they save the 145 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: guy's life, that's for sure, and we'll see what's going 146 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: to what's going to come of everything. And now we 147 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: can start talking about the football again and we can 148 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: uh move back to that without in any way forgetting 149 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: DeMar Hamlin or what he's doing or keeping him in 150 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: our prayers. Uh, just understanding that this is a twenty 151 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: four year old young man. You know, I have a 152 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: twenty four year old son, and so that really hits 153 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: home for Dad. And I think that that was that 154 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 1: was what hit hard for so many people because in 155 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: that moment, he was no longer the Buffalo Bill's player. 156 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 1: He was somebody's son. He was somebody's brother, he was 157 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 1: somebody's friend, he was he was a teammate. I mean, 158 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: it was just he's just a human being at that moment, 159 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: just like the other seven billion on the planet. And 160 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: it really drove home these are big games. We want 161 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: to win this game Saturday night. We want to go 162 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: to the playoffs. But it put in perspective what this 163 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: really is. We're competing to go to the playoffs, to 164 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: have a chance to play in the Super Bowl, and 165 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: we should compete with all we got. Oh yes, but 166 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: it's not the end of the world. It won't be 167 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: the end of the world one way or the other. 168 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: Perspective at this time of year. Is probably a good thing. 169 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: It is a good thing. Yeah, it is a good thing. 170 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 1: So anyway, hats off to ESPN, ABC for for what 171 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: they did. One of the I mean, do you think 172 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: about moments in television and you think about the coverage 173 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: of the John Kennedy assassination and challenger and President Reagan 174 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: being shot, and you know, all these things at different points. 175 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: The moon landing in nineteen sixty nine and nine eleven, 176 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: nine to eleven obviously is right in there too. And 177 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if if it fits one hundred percent 178 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: with the scope because not everybody in the world's a 179 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: sports fan, but within sports television it's sports coverage. Major moment. Well, 180 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: it's the nineteen eighty Olympics with with what al Michaels did. 181 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: Do you believe in miracles? It's the nineteen seventy two 182 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: Olympics with Jim McKay, and I mean it's right up there. 183 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: I mean it was, it was phenomenally well done. And 184 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: makes you proud of what we of the people who 185 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: do what we do. Okay, so let's turn now to 186 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,959 Speaker 1: the Titans injury report for a Wednesday, but it's actually 187 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: an injury report for a Thursday because it's football Thursday. 188 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: Football Thursday, due to the fact the game is Saturday 189 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: at seven fifteen. Did not practice both days. Davante Harris, 190 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 1: a defensive back who plays a lot of special teams. 191 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: He injured a hamstring in the game last Thursday night. 192 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: So you're you're not You're not feeling great about his 193 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: chances right now, I would think now. Outside linebacker Terrell 194 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: Basham back injury limited yesterday, did not practice today. Not 195 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: a great sign. Sam Okawanu may get the call back 196 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: up from the practice squad to take that spot. We'll see. 197 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 1: Linebacker Dylan Coles missed a couple games with an ankle. 198 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: He was limited in practice both days. Christian Fulton limited 199 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: in practice both days coming back from a groin safety 200 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: and Monty Hooker limited in practice both days coming back 201 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: from a knee. Nicholas petit Frere, who missed the Dallas 202 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: game with an ankle, limited both days. Jeffrey Simmons, who 203 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: was held out of the Dallas game due to the 204 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: ankle that he's had its late October. Limited both days, 205 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: full participation both days for Denico Autry with a bicept injury, 206 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry with a hip injury. Josh Thompson coming back 207 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: from a concussion. Big Josh Thompson fan. Yeah, rookie safety, 208 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: good special teams player. I think he's going to play 209 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: for this team, the one, the one that bothers me. However, 210 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: Traylan Burke's groin and he was just added to the 211 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: practice report today. He was limited. Yeah, not what you 212 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: want to see. Don't like additions, Yeah, especially not this 213 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 1: late in the week. Yeah, but hopefully it was a 214 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: precautionary limitation and he'll be fine. Okay. So for Jacksonville, 215 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: this tells you how healthy they've been all years. I'm 216 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: so tired of them being healthy. The only guy who 217 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: has not practiced the last two days is their long 218 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: snapper Ross Madisick with a back injury. Cool. I mean, 219 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: does Ross Madisick even need to practice? Do you think 220 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: he even live in Jacksonville? Well, he probably lives in 221 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: Jacksonville because there's some great golfing around, right, So that's 222 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: what long snappers do. They are great golf. They golf 223 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: with the punters who are always the best golfers in 224 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 1: the world. They golf and they fish and you can 225 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: get both. Everybody else is fine. I mean, Trevor Lawrence 226 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: still has the toe injury, and man, it seems to 227 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: have really bothered. Yeah, it's really slow. And he didn't 228 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: get the Nashville toe injury. He got the Jacksonville toe injury, 229 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: which I mean, what must that be. It's a baby 230 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: little toe hurt because he's fine. He's playing great. Fourteen touchdowns, 231 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: two interceptions the last two games. They are totally healthy. 232 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: They've been healthy all season. It's wild. It's just the 233 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: craziest thing. I mean, we pay close attention to all 234 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: of the teams in the AFC South, We watched them 235 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: all year, and I mean Jacksonville's injury reports every week 236 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: are just the most boring thing. Trevor Lawrence has been 237 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: sacked three times in the last four games. Whoa Zay 238 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: Jones four touchdown catches the last four games. Last four games, 239 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram the tight end twenty seven catches, three hundred 240 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: forty three yards and two touchdowns. Defense has given up 241 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: six points in their last two games. Now they were 242 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: playing the Jets and the Texans, not the best offenses 243 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: in the NFL, but still and ray Shawn Jenkins, the 244 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: safety is playing about as well as any safety in 245 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: the NFL. And there went over Dallas. He became the 246 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: first player in NFL history with eighteen tackles and two 247 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: interceptions in the same game. Really, yes, wow, do you 248 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: want to hear some PF facts leading into this game? 249 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: Hit me with some PF. Okay, let's do some Derrick 250 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: Henry because it's his birthday. Happy Birthday, King, Happy birthday, 251 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, twenty nine years old. Twenty nine. Derrick Henry 252 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: has rushed this year against stacked boxes one hundred seventy 253 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: six carries. Well, that's very that's a lot of stacked 254 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: boxes when you consider he has only three hundred nineteen 255 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: carries on the year. Well, and that's what Max says 256 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: every week. Yes, so that's that's why it's no surprise 257 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: that eighty two percent of his yards have come after 258 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: first contact. Well, yeah, sure, because his first contact's coming 259 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: pretty quiz. Yes. Since the start of twenty twenty one, 260 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: Denico Autry has one hundred ten quarterback pressures Jeffrey Simmons 261 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: has one hundred eight quarterback pressures. That's great, that's pretty fantastic. 262 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: Having him both back on the field will be very exciting. 263 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: It's why the Titans are only fifth in the NFL 264 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: in total downs using the blitz. They've only blitzed on 265 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: eighteen percent of their defensive snaps because when they have 266 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: Denico and Big Jeff, you'll need to blame they don't 267 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: need to blitz as much. Wow, the Titans and the 268 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys lead the NFL and operating from under center offensively. 269 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: What percentage of the time would you say? What would 270 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 1: you guess? Oh? I mean how many snaps do the 271 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: Titans and the Cowboys quarterbacks take under center? They're tied 272 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: for number one in the NFL sixty fifty. Okay, so 273 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: that's pretty good. Here's a weird one. Robert Woods has 274 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: not forced a mistackle this season, really, And I was 275 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: thinking about that, and I was thinking, well, how many 276 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: times can you remember him catching a ball in space 277 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 1: and having a chance to get a guide to miss? Yeah? 278 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: Not often, now that you say it, Yeah, I don't 279 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: think it's an indictment on him as much as it 280 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: is on the fact that He's caught a lot of 281 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: passes in traffic. Yeah, you know, it'd be nice to 282 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: be able to get him in more open setting. Yeah, 283 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: because I think he could make people miss. Yeah, that's 284 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: according to PF. But that's very interesting. All right, So 285 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: some other statistics from PF. Trevor Lawrence has twenty four 286 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: touchdown passes. Nineteen have come outside the numbers. That one'sn't 287 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: a bit of an obscure fact. Oh, thank you. So 288 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: he throws well on the move, either going right or 289 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: going left. He's fantastic. He's fantastic athlete, great player. Yeah. 290 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: His average release this year has been two point five 291 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: zero two point five seconds, third fastest in the NFL. 292 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: Ball's coming out to say who he was behind? I 293 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 1: didn't look interesting. I didn't look I'd be interested to 294 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: know when his passes have come out two point five 295 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: seconds or less. He's completed seventy four percent when he 296 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: has to hold it longer than two point five seconds, 297 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: fifty three percent completions. That's interesting. The three hundred and 298 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 1: sixty eight yards passing against the Titans on December eleventh 299 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: was the most in his career. Yeah, I believe that. 300 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: Who does he like to throw too in the red zone. 301 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk, the veteran, the big free agent, signing twenty 302 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: red zone targets this year. Travis eten. Wait, is that 303 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: how you say that? Et N just like et N 304 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: et N. So all you do is you write down 305 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: e t N like at M et N. Right, Okay, 306 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,479 Speaker 1: et N et N all right. I was sort of 307 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: overdoing it for effect there for a second. ETNA et N. Yeah. 308 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: I mean when you say it, it sounds like fancy French. Yes, yes, 309 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: I'm very okay, very cultured. All right. Forty seven miss 310 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: tackles this year on Travis ETN. Really, that's that's excellent. Yeah. 311 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 1: And Jacksonville loves to run outside the tackles. It's an 312 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: interesting fact. Five point eight per carry outside the tackles, 313 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: three point seven inside the tackles. That's interesting. Don't let 314 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: them run wide. But both of these teams, here's a 315 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: factor for the game Saturday nights. You you're probably not 316 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: going to be fascinated that because you're not even paying attention. 317 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: Right now, I am paying attention. The Jaguars have averaged 318 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: eight point three percent of passes drop. They've not averaged 319 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: eight drops per game eight point three percent of passes. Okay, 320 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,719 Speaker 1: the Titans are second at eight point one percent. I 321 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: was going to guess the Titans. Yeah, I believe that. 322 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: So those are facts from PFF to get you ready. 323 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: You can walk in the room tomorrow, drop those on 324 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: the other people who are not OT people, and you 325 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: will appear to be this smarty. You will sound very 326 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: very sound, very smart. All right, So other development, I 327 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: wanted to ask your opinion. Bryce Young is coming out 328 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: at Alabama. Yes, the quarterback he announced this week, along 329 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: with like twenty four other guys at Alabama who are 330 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: coming out, all of whom project on like the first 331 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: two rounds. It's incredible that they have enough people to 332 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 1: feel the team down there, because every year it's like 333 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: thirty eight people decide they're leaving and then thirty eight 334 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: more right, Nick, good job. Is Bryce Young the number 335 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: one pick in the draft? If Houston has the number 336 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: one pick, m or is it somebody else? Now I'm 337 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: asking you this question on January fourth. It's totally unfair. 338 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: A lot can happen, many things can go down the road. 339 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: But I'm saying on January fourth, I'm asking you Amy 340 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: Wells to make the pick asy Young going to be 341 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: the number one pick in the NFL Draft if Houston 342 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: has the pick. I think yes. My answer is yes 343 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: as well. I think yes. I think that that is 344 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: that is a position that they can build around. I mean, listen, 345 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: Houston is going to be pretty much doing a full 346 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: rebuild yet again. And it seems to me that if 347 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 1: they can get a quarterback that they can just start 348 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: on the ground level. Build around this guy, build it up. 349 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: I mean, Bryce Young's a great quarterback. I think yes. 350 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: Gonna be fascinating to see how he measures at the 351 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: combine height wise, I think, overall wise okay, because there's 352 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: some people that think he's going to come in six 353 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: feet or under. And I wonder what he will weigh. Now, 354 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: certainly he will be visiting every buffet there is between 355 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,199 Speaker 1: now and when he weighs on March the first or whatever. 356 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: But I mean there's some people who don't think he 357 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: weighs one hundred and eighty five pounds. I don't know 358 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: if it's true. I have no idea. I've never seen 359 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: him in person, watching him on television. I love the player. 360 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: I love the player, so don't want him in our division, right, 361 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,360 Speaker 1: So would him much rather go somewhere far, far away 362 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: because I'm a fan. I'm a fan of what he does. 363 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: I haven't seen anybody better. I would draft him if 364 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: I were them, right, but everybody, but he is not 365 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 1: a big looking dude. Does it feel like in the 366 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: last maybe three or four years, and this is just 367 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: me having the thought right now, does it feel as 368 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: though we've had more conversations about smaller quarterbacks? It absolutely, 369 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: it feels like we have had more tiny quarterbacks in 370 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: the last three to four years than I can ever 371 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: remember having the conversation. There was a period of time 372 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: where nobody would take a quarterback under six two. Right, 373 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: if you're six one, you're short. And now that I 374 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: mean Russell Wilson has disproven it at five ten and 375 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: three quarters. Uh, Kyler Murray is five ten issues, No, 376 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: he's not five ten. That man is. No. He I 377 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: think he is because but the thing about Kyler Murray, though, 378 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: is he's thick. He has a he has a thick 379 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: lower body. So he sort of looks shorter than what 380 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: he really is because he's a really muscular guy. Bryce 381 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,239 Speaker 1: Young is not. Bryce Young is lithe and whispy. He is, 382 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: Uh what that man whispy. Well he is. He's not 383 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: a big I mean, he's not a big, thick guy. No, 384 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: he's not. I agree with you. Whispy is a way 385 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: that I have never described, and I might start, but 386 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: I mean people who hit these quarterbacks are very large humans. 387 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, there, I mean it. I can see I 388 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 1: can see both sides of it, because obviously we have 389 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: seen success by smaller quarterbacks. Obviously there's a lot of 390 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: things that you can do. And you know, I mean, 391 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,199 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if it doesn't limit you anymore. Like 392 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: if you can play, they don't care anymore because of 393 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,680 Speaker 1: all the read option, the spread format, you know, all 394 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: of that. But there is also the reality of the 395 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: fact that you are playing against very large, strong individuals. 396 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: It is a very different level. And so then the 397 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: issue in my mind, and I'm not a general manager 398 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: of anything, but in my mind, it's not playability. It's durability. 399 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 1: Well it is, and I mean I think it's it's 400 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: a reasonable it's a reasonable thing. You know. There was 401 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: some talk when Kyler Murray was at the Combine there 402 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: were people who thought he was gonna be five to 403 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 1: seven or five eight because of just what you're talking 404 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: about and that is the fact that he's this thick, 405 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: really put together guy with anytime you have broad shoulders 406 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 1: like he does, it always makes you look shorter than 407 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 1: what you really are. We said the morning we learned 408 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: that he was five ten, he has just made millions 409 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: of dollars. Yeah, I remember, And it's weird that you 410 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: have these moments in your life that you just remember. 411 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: I remember when Kyler Murray measured at the combine because 412 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: everybody was talking about it. I remember whose hand size 413 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 1: were we so obsessed with Cincinnati quarterback so Burrow. Yeah, 414 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: we were trying to figure out if we were sitting 415 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: around and the entire media room was debating how big 416 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: his hands were, and he made tons of jokes about it, 417 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: which is really funny. There are these bizarre, just combine 418 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: moments that you have in your say, can't play in 419 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 1: cold weather because he has small hands, that's not a thing. Well, yeah, 420 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: as you can't grip the ball. And that's why they 421 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 1: didn't think Cincinnati would take him. Some didn't. Some didn't 422 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: right because they said, oh, Cincinnati can't take him because 423 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: they play so many of their games in cold weather. 424 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: That was the theory, But it's also a thing because 425 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson has especially large hands and throws very over 426 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: the top, which made people well but well, but he 427 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: has this very upright throwing motion, so he doesn't get 428 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: a lot of passes batted because he's not throwing from 429 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: the side. He's throwing from a much higher angle. Right, 430 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: you're just laughing. But I'm telling you what the Scout 431 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: people have said. I share this. See, let me tell 432 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: you something, ot people. I share this information with her 433 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: all all during the draft. I'll come in, I'll say, hey, 434 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: he heard this, and she just laughs at me. Then 435 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: why I do this? I don't know it. I share 436 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: information and it's valuable information. It's important, obviously not No, 437 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: it is, and it's a real thing. It's comical to me. 438 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: I have these out of body experiences sometimes where I 439 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: realize that we are legitimately sitting around having a conversation 440 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: about whether or not a human being that neither of 441 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: us have ever met is able to hold something in 442 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 1: his hands due to the size of them, Like these 443 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 1: are adult conversations we are having at our place of employment. 444 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's wild and it matters. I know it 445 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: sounds like it's a joke, but it's a legitimate, legitimate 446 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: thing because Joe Burrow, No, he can grip the ball 447 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: with nine in chains. He can do that. But the 448 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: idea is if it's cold, the ball is slick and 449 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,439 Speaker 1: it makes it very hard. It does not seem to 450 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,360 Speaker 1: have been a problem for him, just like the thing 451 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: with Kenny Pickett wearing gloves. The whole thing is just 452 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 1: sometimes it strikes. It's how funny it is because it's 453 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: about that exactly, because guess what, Joe Burrows real good. 454 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow's really good, and he's really good when it's cold, 455 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: and he's really he's good when it's cold, he's good 456 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: when it's warm, he's good when it's cloudy. It does 457 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow is just really good. Yeah, I do think 458 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: people overdo this. Yes, it's I had the conversation with 459 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 1: a with a college coach recently and he was talking 460 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: about how sometimes scouts NFL scouts will over scout and 461 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: he's like, I can give you a thumbnail on this guy. 462 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,400 Speaker 1: He's this tall, he weighs this much, he's really good 463 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: at his position. Like, there's your thumbnail. And it was 464 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: an oversimplified way of saying, sometimes we get a little 465 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: too granular. Oh, I don't think it's just. And really, 466 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: if a guy can play, a guy can play, and 467 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: if he can't, he probably can't. And as we are 468 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: approaching this season that is rapidly approaching. Once we get 469 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: past the postseason and the Super Bowl and everything else, 470 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: we are going to be in the thick of draft practice. 471 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: You know, the Comboy is my favorite time of the year, 472 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: but there is a level of comedy to it that 473 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: strikes me from time to time that what are we 474 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: actually talking about? Well, you have, I mean, like the 475 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: forty yard dash is kind of worthless because you don't 476 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: run forty yards in a straight line on a play ever, 477 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: unless you're a receiver. I mean, they should time defensive 478 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: back going backwards forty yards if they want to find 479 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: because that player never runs forward forty yards offensive linemen 480 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: running backs rarely do that. The three cone drill is 481 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: a much better judge because you very rarely run in 482 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: a straight line right lots of changing directions. I would 483 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: watch defensive backs run the forty backwards. I think that 484 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: would be a great addition to their prime time programming, 485 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 1: especially because they would fall. I mean, who do we 486 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: tell about that? No? They wouldn't fall. They do this 487 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: as I mean, this is their job, It's what they do. 488 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: They speed backwards, pedaling as fast as you can forty yards. 489 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: You would watch that. All of the ot people would 490 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: watch that. Let's say, you're probably right, yeah, that would 491 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: be great. And also never take away the forty yard 492 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: dash from the Big Guys. Awesome programming, is that right? 493 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: I love watching him run. Why does that make you 494 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: so happy? Because I think it's phenomenal to see giant 495 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: humans move that quickly. A couple of things that I 496 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: wanted to mention. First of all, Ryan Stonehouse can break 497 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: an eighty two year old record, Sammy Ball's record for 498 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: gross punting yards. He's averaging fifty three yards a punt. 499 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: Mike Hearndon, I believe, is a man who reported that 500 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: if he averaged thirty three and a half yards a 501 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: punt on eight punts, he would still break Sammy balls record. 502 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: Well and he I mean, he'll definitely average more than that. 503 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: I think, so, yeah, you would, you would think he would. 504 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: He would also obviously break the best punting average in 505 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 1: franchise history, which Brett Kern set just five years ago 506 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: at forty nine point seven Wow, that's the only one 507 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 1: of the franchise season best records that really you feel 508 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: like could be challenged as we come into the final game. 509 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: Some of the last times though, and this is what 510 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: I wanted to get to, because in a big game 511 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: like this, you have to think about last times. And 512 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 1: like the last time the Titans blocked a field goal. 513 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: Denico Autry blocked one against Miami last year January second, 514 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 1: blocked an extra point this year too. Yes, the last 515 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: blocked field goal returned for a touchdown? Do you remember this? Oh? Gosh, 516 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: who blocked it? Who returned it? Blocked field goal returned 517 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: for a touchdown? Yes, tell me when you're ready. I 518 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: don't remember. At Indianapolis December one, twenty nineteen, Dane crookshank 519 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: blocked it? Who returned it? Ty Smith returned it for 520 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: a touchdown? Oh? Okay, okay, last blocked punt. You weren't 521 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: even here yet at the time. Tim against Pittsburgh over 522 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: the eleventh, twenty twelve. I know the picture. Last blocked 523 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: punt for a touchdown. The guy who scored the touchdown 524 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: will be here calling the game this weekend. Tell me. 525 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: Jason mccordy against Indianapolis he returned to punt that Patrick 526 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: Bailey blocked off. Pat McAfee's famous Pat McAfee had a 527 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: punt blocked by Patrick Bailey. Jason mccordy October thirty two, eleven, 528 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: So that was eleven years ago. I didn't know Jason 529 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: mccordy was gonna be calling the game. Yes, he'll be 530 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: doing national radio. Well, that's very he's doing so well. 531 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: Very proud of j mack, very proud. TV show is fantastic, 532 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: it really is. Yeah, I'm very proud of him. The 533 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football Program, Jammie Urdall is doing a really 534 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: good job, and I'm not surprised. She's awesome. The rest 535 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: of that crew does a nice job. But if you 536 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: ask me, j Max the star, well he I mean yeah, 537 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: he always starred. He always kind of was. Yes, last 538 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: fumble return for a touchdown you should get this one? 539 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: Was it this year? No? I you even got Ashley 540 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: Farrell with that one, and Ashley's good at this game. 541 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: Kevin Byard thirty yards at Jacksonville, October tenth, twenty one. 542 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: Elijah Molden knocked it out okay, and Kevin Byrd picked 543 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: it up and returned it for a touchdown. Last kickoff 544 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: return for a touchdown? Oh, I don't know. Okay, So 545 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: Indy tried an onside kick in the game against the 546 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: Titans November twenty nine, twenty twenty, and A J. Brown 547 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: returned at forty two yards for a touchdown. Was that 548 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: it was at the very end of the game. They 549 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: don't do a lot of onside kicks in the third quarter. 550 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: I remember. Don't laugh at my stupid facts leading up 551 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 1: to the combine. Then, right, they're not stupid. It's just 552 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: the thing is that, granted, that is technically a kickoff 553 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: return for a touchdown, even though it was an onside kick, right, Okay, 554 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: but it really isn't. Yeah, the Titans haven't returned a 555 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: legitimate kickoff for a touchdown since Darius ray Nd against 556 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: Detroit September twenty three, twenty twelve. I wasn't even here, 557 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,280 Speaker 1: you weren't Darius raynod for a touchdown. So it's been 558 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: over ten years since the Titans have returned a conventional kickoff. 559 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,240 Speaker 1: I throw this out every once in a while. Last 560 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,400 Speaker 1: opening kickoff returned for a touchdown? Oh my god. Derek 561 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: Mason three hundred fifty six games ago, counting the postseason 562 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,840 Speaker 1: at Cincinnati October eighteen, two thousand and one. That was 563 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: a while ago, returned it for a touchdown. Wow, last 564 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: punt returned for a touchdown? See the Titans need to 565 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: play like one of these in this game Saturday. Yeah, 566 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 1: that's why I'm throwing these out. I liked the mojo 567 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 1: that we're getting right here. When was the last punt 568 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: return for a touchdown? Darius ray Nod returned two punts 569 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: for touchdowns against Jacksonville on December thirty, two twelve, So 570 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 1: it's been ten years. He returned one eighty one and 571 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 1: then won sixty nine yards in the same game. Titans 572 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 1: haven't done it since he did twice in the same game. Yes, 573 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 1: he's also the guy who took a safety by he 574 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 1: sure is at Pittsburgh and the first game of twenty thirteen, 575 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,399 Speaker 1: he barely came out of the end zone and then 576 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 1: he thought about it and decided to put the knee 577 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,919 Speaker 1: down in the end zone and on the first play 578 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: of the season, the Titans were behind two to nothing. 579 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: Mike Keith, that was my first game as a Tennessee Titan, 580 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 1: and I thought, what have I done? Yeah? Me too, 581 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: That was what we thought about you having you for 582 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: your first game. Last safety for the Titans should have 583 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: been Seattle last year. Yeah, with Ola A. Daney. The 584 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: last safety Baker Mayfield sacked by Cameron Wake at Cleveland 585 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 1: September eight, twenty nineteen. Last safety twenty nineteen. Last shutout 586 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 1: for the Titans. Was that twenty twenty one or was 587 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: that twenty one? Twenty one? Twenty one? Yeah? Jacksonville, Jacksonville, 588 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence through four interceptions. Yeah, December twelve, twenty twenty one. 589 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 1: Last tie, love this one? No I refuse thirteen thirteen 590 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: against New Orleans October three, nineteen seventy one. Good, let's 591 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 1: keep it that way. Well, we can't tie, cannot tie. 592 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: This is what I want to leave you with on 593 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:33,280 Speaker 1: this edition of the OTP. No ties allowed. A tie 594 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:41,760 Speaker 1: gives the AFC South Championship two Jacksonville because they would 595 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: finish eight eight and one and the Titans would finish 596 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,800 Speaker 1: seven nine in one. So it doesn't work. A tide 597 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: does not work. You've got to keep that in mind. 598 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,879 Speaker 1: You always see these things come up so and so 599 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: every year, so and so we'll get in the playoffs 600 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: with a win or a tie, and you're letter tie whatever. 601 00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: Of course, there've been a couple of times in the 602 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: NFL this year, but a tie could be a strategy 603 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: for Jacksonville down the stretch of this game or in overtime, 604 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: because a tie gets them into the playoffs, because that's 605 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: all they need. So it can also affect the strategy 606 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: of Mike Vrabel at the end of regulation or in 607 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: overtime because he knows and there is no sudden death. 608 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: And we're all saying this is a playoff game, but 609 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: it's really it's not. It's a regular season game that 610 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: is a play in game, a win in your end game. 611 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: So at the end of ten minutes it's over. In overtime, yep, 612 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: And if you finished twenty to twenty, it's it's a tie, yes, yep. 613 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: So besides the just as moral people who do not 614 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: accept ties, yes, we cannot tie for postseason. The thing 615 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 1: you need to know about Amy Wells two things that 616 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: stand out. She is the mayor of Indianapolis, Indiana. I'm not, 617 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: and she is morally as post to tie. I am 618 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 1: morally opposed to ties, that is real. I'm not. I 619 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,479 Speaker 1: just think that Indianapolis is a good hub for major 620 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 1: I cared this week. See, how does it feeld me 621 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: on the no tie train? The no tie train? Well, 622 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 1: for the Titans, if I'm a Jaguar fan, I'll take 623 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,280 Speaker 1: a tie of you'll tell me you wouldn't take it. Shoot, 624 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: if you're a Jaguar fan, you'll always take a tie easy. 625 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: But I'm saying in this situation, if you're a Jaguar fan, 626 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 1: you would drop your morality clause and you would take 627 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:32,760 Speaker 1: a tie this week. I'm not limping into the postseason. Listen, 628 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to postseason. However, I can go. No, no, 629 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: I am, so don't give me that. Nope, I will 630 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: take it if I mean, if they don't show up 631 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,439 Speaker 1: and there's a forfeit, I'll take it. I know who 632 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: I am. I am Darrell Casey not wanting to go 633 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: to the Pro Bowl as an alternate. And you know 634 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: what Jarreal Casey said after the fact, I don't care 635 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 1: the worst mistake he ever made. Nope, I have That's 636 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: what I'm said. You were there what he said.

I know I said to us, and it's 639 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 1: on tape. Actually we have video evidence too, because there 640 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 1: were cameras in there. It was really nice. It was 641 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 1: nice um bottom line, he said, I know, but I 642 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: like the I like sticking to your guns.

I'm not rolling on 649 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:41,240 Speaker 1: the biggest regular season game in Jacksonville history. I believe 650 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: that the biggest regular season game in Jacksonville history. That's interesting, right, 651 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 1: everybody's talking about how the bank is gonna be rocking. Yeah, 652 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,480 Speaker 1: so you better buckle up for whatever that means. Sure, 653 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,720 Speaker 1: the bank is going to be rocking. Understand.

Yeah, 656 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: that pool is all the time. There were people in 657 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: the pool.
