1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,160
Speaker 1: We're back with our Thursday though it's kind of like

2
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: a Friday edition of Big Blue Kicks Live right here

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: on Giants dot Com. He's Jeff Eagles, I'm John Schmelt,

4
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: your usual Friday crew, back with you, and we have

5
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: no show tomorrow. By the way, it's one of our

6
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: summer Fridays, which is wonderful. So we'll touch on that.

7
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: UM and UH, we'll kind of just getting ready and

8
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: continue to move forward here with our off season stuff.

9
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: Just aheads up. Next week we're starting our previews of

10
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: the Giants opponents this year, So next week you'll heal

11
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,840
Speaker 1: interviews previewing the Redskins, Eagles, Cowboys, and Jaguars. Also trying

12
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,239
Speaker 1: to figure out exactly the order they'll come in. But

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: that kind of gives us some ability to prepare at

14
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: least for the season and that should be fun. And

15
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 1: also for next Thursday, I know I promised this earler

16
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: in the off season, so put it on your calendar.

17
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 1: Jeff and I will be on next Thursday once again,

18
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 1: and we'll be joined by UH pro Football Focuses, UM

19
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: Analytics Guru. So we're gonna go deep dive in hardcore

20
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: and nerd and out into some analytics and how what

21
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: it means, how they get their numbers, and what can

22
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: they not account for. So we're not going into this

23
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: trying to attack the guy and say none of this matters,

24
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: but we're trying to learn to figure exactly how they calculated,

25
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: understand it, and figure out exactly how universally some of

26
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: these principles can be applied and and and what don't

27
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: they know, which is just the point of as what

28
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: do you know, what can you calculate, and what you

29
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: can't calculate. So all that's coming up in the next

30
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: week or so. Were what's good about that is that

31
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: when we see something from Pro Football Focus and after

32
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 1: talking to this guy for an hour and probably we're

33
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: gonna understand that how the number has how has come

34
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: up and what goes into giving this type of you know,

35
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: um assessment. And I think it makes more sense of

36
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: of when we because my god, how many times we

37
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: we reference Pro Football Focus during the season. It's like

38
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: every day, you know, so we want to know exactly

39
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: what it goes a football the fumble football hasn't been

40
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: up there in a while, actually back I mean it's okay, um,

41
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 1: So the things that We're going to kind of focus

42
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: on an interview next week and then I have a

43
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: bunch of stuff to get to to Jeff with today.

44
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: But when I'm done teasing, is you know, importance of

45
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: the running game? You know, everyone says basically how the

46
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: running game in today's NFL is antiquated as not as important.

47
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that um play action. We'll talk a

48
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: little bit about you know, how much difference is your

49
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: success rate between like a third and five versus a

50
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: third and eight. Is there a significant difference? Talk about

51
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: going for it on fourth down, the new bogus you

52
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: go for and more often two point conversion stuff, all

53
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: those types of things. You know what positions have the

54
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: most value? You know what affects a pass game more

55
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: better cornerbacks or a better pass rush like things like that.

56
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: So if you folks by the way, I want to

57
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: send me some tweets, you can, and I will note

58
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: your questions and I'll send it again next week on

59
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: Twitter as we get closer. But I want to try

60
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: to get to some of the issues and the questions

61
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: you guys have to as we move ahead, as analysts

62
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: become really a bigger part of football, We're trying to

63
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: get to the bottom. And there's so there's so many

64
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: people that are coming up with these types of analytics.

65
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: You know, it's not just pro football focus. There's people

66
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: that are that are coming up with new ones, I mean,

67
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: which is kind of exciting in the sense but it

68
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: gets a little bit over the top of my mind.

69
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: But we do have to understand how it all works

70
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: and how it how it relates to the game, and

71
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: even things like turnovers, how random are they are they

72
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: more a product of a good defensive player or bad

73
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: offensive play. It's like, you know, little things like that,

74
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: and I think analytics can can I actually like those.

75
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,119
Speaker 1: I like those. It's more to me, like I guess

76
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 1: from an evaluation process of a player, but from a

77
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: statistical like actually something that's happening in the game, and turnovers, interceptions, fumbles,

78
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: you know, and things like that. Those to me are intriguing.

79
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: And also I think they were just coming from the

80
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: old schools how we used to be able to to

81
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: rate and and evaluate players, but now we have all

82
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: this analytics to help us evaluate them even further, which

83
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: can I think at some point you have to kind

84
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: of draw a line of Santa say I'm not gonna

85
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: go this far with this guy. Did you play well?

86
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: He didn't play well. That's about it. Like, for example,

87
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: just to give me one thing Pro Football Focus has

88
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: found in their research, and this is one thing we'll

89
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 1: talk about next week, is that the quality of a

90
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: team's running game has no impact on the success rate

91
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: of their play action pass action pass works just as

92
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: well regardless of how well you run the ball, because

93
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: well you have which is counter right, but it is

94
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: counter into it. If you figure if you're playing like

95
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: last year, for example, and let's say you're playing the

96
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, you figure you'd be much more concerned about

97
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: them handing the ball to Zeke Elliott than you would

98
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: be facing the Giants and then handing the ball to

99
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: the Orleans darkwa But according to what their numbers show

100
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: with the variants, there's no difference in the impact of

101
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: the running game on the effectance of play actions. So

102
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: those are the types of things we're gonna get into

103
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: next week, I wonder, and I'm sure they haven't answered this,

104
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: like how how play action correlates to the success on

105
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,359
Speaker 1: which down that it's used in, first, second, third down,

106
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: all that stuff. It's just I mean, the more you

107
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: think about there's so many questions that you could you

108
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: could but and you can even go into coaching, sure,

109
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 1: you know, like things like that, that kind of thing,

110
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: you know, or yeah, I we'll even talk about things

111
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: like us have heard of d v o A before.

112
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: It's kind of one of those advanced metrics that measure

113
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: the effectiveness of offenses and defenses. So um, all those

114
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: things are things that will touch on over the course

115
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: of next week. Alright, some fun stuff for today. At

116
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: the end of yesterday's show, Lance and I kind of

117
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: on a whim, we got a call, uh, kind of

118
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: combined and came up with some over under numbers for

119
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: Eli manning for the year. See what you think of

120
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: these and whether or not you would go over under

121
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: on these. Okay, that's kind of just for fun a right,

122
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: So this is the two ten ELI man over under

123
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: completion percentage sixty two point five percent. Okay, And that's

124
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,799
Speaker 1: a high number for any core back. So I would say,

125
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,919
Speaker 1: if no hesitation about the way, Now, what was it?

126
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: What was a few years ago Eli's goal was? Was it?

127
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: Se Well, that's what somebody threw out there, which was

128
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 1: not smart because he was going to get Yeah, there's

129
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,119
Speaker 1: not many people. Yeah, so I think that's a good number,

130
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: But I don't think. I don't think that ELI is

131
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: that accurate anymore. And I just think that, you know,

132
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: the drops, hopefully the wide receivers will catch the ball

133
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: because that goes against his completion percentage total yards passing. Okay,

134
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 1: so fifty, Yeah, I know, I knew four thousand was

135
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: the threshold we had talked about. You and I talked

136
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: about this before. Overall, under four thousand and fifty, you

137
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: know what I'm gonna go under. Excuse me, I'm gonna

138
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 1: go over on that number for a couple of reasons.

139
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: Number One, I've healthy O'Dell Beckham on the field will

140
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: give me some really big place that will equate to

141
00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,040
Speaker 1: some big yardage. And I also think that um On

142
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: Barkeley and Evan Greenram are going to have some big

143
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: plays out of the passing game, which put Shepherd and Shepherd. So,

144
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: you know, the three hundred yard game nowadays is not

145
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 1: what it used to be. Now that the new three

146
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: D four hundred now it really is. I mean, you

147
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,119
Speaker 1: think about it. So I think that four thousand yards

148
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: is the equivalent of two hundred and fifty passing yards

149
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: per per week. Okay. So, and I also think the

150
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: influence that that that Seklon Barkley is going to have

151
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: and bring to the running game will set up some

152
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: big plays for Eli down the field, because you know

153
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: he likes to throw the long ball. You know, he

154
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: likes to go downfield with it. He's been hamstrong on

155
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: that the last couple of years. I see some big play,

156
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 1: So maybe that maybe it gets four or five of

157
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: those three hundred and sixty yard games which puts him

158
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: over them. I guess my follow up question to you

159
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: on that number would be this. In the past, boltsch

160
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: Pat Schummer and Mike Shula had been very dedicated to

161
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: running the football a lot, at least in recent years.

162
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: Do you think the simple increase in rushing attempts and

163
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: decrease in passing attempts makes reaching that number more difficult

164
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: despite the upticking talent, it's skill position and on the

165
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: offensive one. Well, I would say yes, it would. It would.

166
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: It would make it more difficult because because of the

167
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't make it impossible though, No, not impossible, not impossible, no, um,

168
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: because you know what they're always there's gonna be some

169
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: games that the Giants are gonna be in that they're

170
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: going to have to pass the football and they're gonna

171
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: have to be playing from behind. So I think that

172
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: that's that we're also, as we always call it, garbage time.

173
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,839
Speaker 1: But it's still gonna be It still goes into the number.

174
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: By the way, folks with the phone lines are open,

175
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: by the way, two, one, three, get in. Anything you

176
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: want to talk about, will take your call. Uh do

177
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: you have the results? Not results? You have your answers

178
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: on there? What you and Lance went with, um, No,

179
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: we we would we We just wanted to come up

180
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: with number the questions exactly answered them. Yet we actually

181
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: did go through it a little bit. I have to

182
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 1: go back and check. I don't remember um touchdowns passing

183
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: touchdowns twenty four over under twenty eight. Wow, I'm gonna go, Uh,

184
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: it's good. It's a good number. And I go to

185
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: think it, I like this, what do you what do

186
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: you have last year? One? Yeah, but that was a

187
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: down here, and he's always been around twenty six to

188
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: nine for the most part. I can bring up his

189
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: Chrier stats. Yeah, well I got it. And again I've

190
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: said this before, and I've looked back at I'm going on.

191
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: I'm going on Pat Shermer's offense, all right, real quick.

192
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: Two thousand, sixteen, twenty six, two thousand, fifteen, thirty five,

193
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: two thousand, fourteen thirty, two thousand thirteen was the terrible

194
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: year eighteen, then the four years before that, thirty one seven.

195
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: I think he gets more than that. I think I'll

196
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: go over with that. And I think because I liked

197
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: I like the way that Pat Shermer um. I like

198
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: the way he thinks around the red zone and change

199
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 1: things up. And I think that you'll get some good

200
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: production out of Sequon Barkley out of the backfield, Evan Ingram,

201
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit of red Ellison Um throwing a

202
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: little bit more in that red zone and getting some

203
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the red zone. I think he's gonna be

204
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: a huge weapon. I think that, you know, I'll tell

205
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 1: you what I do too. And I also like the

206
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: the the idea of having multiple targets in the red

207
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,959
Speaker 1: zone with Ingram and Barkley and O'Dell and and and

208
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: Shephard and all those, I mean, everybody down there just

209
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,599
Speaker 1: got to be able to protect the passer and be

210
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: able to run the football to set up some of

211
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: that little short play action that we could get in

212
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: the red zone. Didn't have that last year. I mean

213
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: more importantly, the offensive line has got to give Eli

214
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 1: some time to work back there. And when you're in

215
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,199
Speaker 1: the red zone, there's not a lot of field to

216
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: work with, obviously, you know that. And when you get

217
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: in there, the little bit more time that you have

218
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: that the offensive line will be able to give you

219
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: will be able to help you survey the field as

220
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: short as it is and find the open receiver. And

221
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: I think that in the past that hasn't happened. And uh,

222
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: you know they've shuffled out the field goal kicker, and

223
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 1: you know, we haven't talked a lot about that about

224
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: the field goal kicker. He's got to have to have

225
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: to come back and have a good camp and have

226
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,319
Speaker 1: a good year. And I'll talk to special teams with

227
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: you in a second. Two more numbers for you, all right,

228
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: So we're an interceptions over under fifteen. Well, if we're

229
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,559
Speaker 1: gonna go if we're gonna go back to what you said,

230
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: will the running game hender the four thousand yard passing

231
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 1: because of the the the attempts And you said no,

232
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 1: and I said no, so therefore, I've got to have

233
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: to I have got to believe that there will be

234
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: enough tempts and I'm gonna go over on the interceptions.

235
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: What do you think, like say, I think he might

236
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: be right on that mark. I think that's gonna be.

237
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: He's gonna be he want to be somewhere between fourteen

238
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: and sixteen and a half, fourteen and a half somewhere

239
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: in there. Yeah, I guess something like that. I don't know.

240
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: I mean, would you be close. Let me ask you

241
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: a question, would you be happy with that Ray show

242
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: two to one? Basically? Okay? Then there you go. I

243
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: think if you can get your ratio to two to

244
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: one as a quarterback, I'm satisfied. Yeah, alright, final one

245
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: exception or ten exceptions and five touchdowns? Well yeah, obviously, um,

246
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: Eli Manning will be sacked twenty six times. I have

247
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: no idea what that one? Um okay, I don't give

248
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: you that to thirty five last year. Last year he

249
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: was sacked thirty one times, the year before before that

250
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 1: and before that. Well, we do know that Eli doesn't

251
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 1: like to get sacked, just like any other football player,

252
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: but he gets rid of the ball when he gets

253
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: screed the ball. So I'm gonna go under with that,

254
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: with the with the the improvement at the left tackle position,

255
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: and hoping that you get some improvement or a lot

256
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: of improvement, I should say, at that right tackle position. Um,

257
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: and then with the addition of the new guys in there.

258
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm gonna go I'm gonna go under that.

259
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope that's a good number to go under. Okay,

260
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: now topic two. When I was asked this question specifically

261
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 1: by a fan yesterday, so I told him I'd ask

262
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: you when we were on the air today. So I'm

263
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: gonna ask you, why did you let the air out

264
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: of Eli Mannings tires when you were with the New

265
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: York Football Giants. I don't remember that. I have no idea.

266
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: He seemed pretty sure that you had told that story.

267
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: Did you let the air out of his tires? Elis? Yeah, No,

268
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: that wasn't me. That was that was somebody else. That

269
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 1: was Keel, Ryan Keel did that? I think? Remember, I

270
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: do not have a good memory. That has been well

271
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: documented on this show. Suh, Listen, there's a lot of

272
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 1: pranks go along up there, I mean, and don't let

273
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 1: me just tell you something for as much as you

274
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: hear about everybody doing things to Eli or whatever. Eli

275
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: did a lot of stuff and still does. He is

276
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: the ultimate prankster and sometimes you gotta get him back.

277
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: And letting the air out of his tires probably what happened.

278
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: I don't remember it, but that's probably what happened. What's

279
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: the what's the funniest thing you you did to Eli

280
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,679
Speaker 1: that you do remember? You know, I didn't do much

281
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: to Eli. I really did it. Um the offensive Lineman

282
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: did a lot of stuff to Eli, like O'Hara and Soyerberg.

283
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: Soyber was probably the biggest jokester around him and Eli. Um,

284
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: they were they were just, you know, just funny stuff,

285
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: you know. I mean classic was always what you put

286
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: the you put the the hair dye in the gloves.

287
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: Oh you mean, well they used the use that money.

288
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: It's that that stuff that when it uh if it's

289
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 1: it's die that you use for um oh no, I

290
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: know it is. It's yeah, for for the money. You

291
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: know when like there's that stuff breaks and that you

292
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: know when there's it's comes from the stuff the banks

293
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: used with the criminals that doesn't come off though, No,

294
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 1: it's it's bad. It comes off off. But it's but

295
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: it's it's very it's activated by sweat. Hell did you

296
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: get that? Oh, there's they can get anything. Okay, how

297
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: this What was the worst thing ever done to you

298
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: by somebody? To me? Um? I think one time I

299
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: came this is when I was in Arizona, and I

300
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: don't know why they did it to me, but I

301
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: came into my room and my room was completely turned

302
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: upside down. Everything in the apartment was upside down, the beds,

303
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: the lamps, that everything was upside down. And now they're

304
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,239
Speaker 1: the funniest one I've ever seen. It was had in Arizona.

305
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: Even the fridge, not the fridge. Now, everything was upside

306
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: down everything, I mean, the clock was upside down. Everything

307
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: was upside down in the room. Just kind of funny.

308
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you one thing. The other one was

309
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: a really funny, is it. In Arizona there was guy

310
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: by the name of the not Man knot Man, and

311
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: he would have he would go into the dorm rooms,

312
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: particularly in the rookies, and take all of their clothes

313
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: and tie them together and not and make this long

314
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: long like just rope and you walk in and they

315
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: the closer and not all the way going down the

316
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: hallway into the next room, all the rookies closed, and

317
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you know sometimes when you're tying those it's

318
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: hard to get him out. So that was, you know,

319
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: it's just when when you're up there. And really in

320
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: the old days, when I say the old days, in

321
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: the first like ten twelve years of my career, training

322
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: camp was six six and a half weeks long. So

323
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: you know you have boards, Yeah, you get board fast.

324
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: You have to do stupid stuff like that. So now

325
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: now they can't do any of that because it's around here, right.

326
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: Remember Jerry Palm Mary the strength coach. Jerry was the

327
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: the at night he would go and um check the

328
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: room to make sure everybody was tucked in at eleven o'clock.

329
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: And we used to we used to mess with Jerry

330
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: really bad all the time. We used to put things

331
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: of water up on the wars because they had these

332
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: like these little hinges and right when the door would open,

333
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: the water would fall on them. I mean, poor Cherry,

334
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 1: I mean, and the guy was relentless to we would

335
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: think that he would not come into our room because

336
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 1: something would happen. We would turn out, we would turn

337
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 1: all the lights out undo all the light bulbs so

338
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: you could not turn a light on us, and we

339
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: would change the furniture so he would he wanted to.

340
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 1: He would be like, oh, you know, the next day

341
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 1: be like, gotta stop doing that kind of stuff, like, oh,

342
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: what are you talking about, Jerry, Just don't come and

343
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: check our rooms. This is so funny. So a lot

344
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 1: of good stuff. Okay, Now, there was a big Instagram

345
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: post from you. Yes over the weekend the lobster has

346
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,360
Speaker 1: been eating is my understanding? Yes, it was I and

347
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 1: I tweeted it out to Charlie. We had it for

348
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: Father's Day me or believe it or not, along with

349
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: some other things. But it was absolutely amazing, good stuff

350
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 1: made it with some little brioche rolls and um homemade

351
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: lobster roll it awesome. It was good stuff. Excellent, fresh, fresh, fresh,

352
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: final final thing before we get to your calls. We

353
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: had a couple of guys in the line of three

354
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 1: and I mentioned this in my practice support. I think

355
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: it was the first day of minicamp. I saw Jeff

356
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: Eagles do one of the most amazing things I've ever

357
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: seen anybody do. So I'm no I'm telling you, I'm

358
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: standing on the sideline and the punters are going all right.

359
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: So I'm talking to Figs, like, you know, what, what

360
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: do you think of the punters? And he starts talking.

361
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,239
Speaker 1: He goes, you know what, I bet you I can

362
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: guess their hang times? And I go all right, I

363
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: mean sure, I buy it, and he goes, give me

364
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 1: stop watching. So I give the stop watch and he

365
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: starts time in the hang times. But here's the trick.

366
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: He would start and stop to stop watch without looking

367
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: at it, and then after the point was caught, he

368
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: would guess what the hang time but the punt was

369
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: without looking at the clock, and he chose the clock

370
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: to me pretty much sure it wasn't. This guy was

371
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: literally within three hundred three tenths of a second on

372
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: every single punt he knocked one to the hundred of

373
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: the second, and he had two others to within one

374
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: or two hundreds of the second. Part like, you need

375
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: to set up a booth. Not the state fair in

376
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: the park. I think it's opening this week actually this weekend.

377
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: You need to set up a booth. It was one

378
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: of the most amazing. He's like for eight nine and

379
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: it was a four eight nine, and he did it

380
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: every single time within literally every seven or eight punts

381
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: were all within two or three tenths of a second.

382
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: Some with hundreds, thousands, and thousands. You could probably do

383
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: the same thing with any of this stuff in here.

384
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 1: John work it constantly. And I would tell my kids

385
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: all the time when we go out punting with them

386
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: when they were all, you know, drying high school. And

387
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,200
Speaker 1: by the way, that that that is a big fiegal.

388
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: You know, you're like, let's go to great eventure. He goes,

389
00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: let's go punting kids, just goes punting. Let's go punting kids,

390
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: because basically you're gonna go punting kids because you're gonna

391
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: go to college and have it paid for scholars punting.

392
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: Now get up. But I just I would tell the kids,

393
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: and don't bring a stopwatch, like damn, we need to

394
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: have clock things like, we don't need to stopwatch. Trust me.

395
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 1: I can tell you what it is. Okay, you're either

396
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: gonna like it or or not. Okay, it needs to

397
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 1: be over, has to have something that starts with the four.

398
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 1: I don't need three something I need for something. So

399
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 1: it's good, it's fun and we and we would just

400
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: those are kind of the things that we were doing

401
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 1: camp too to amuse ourselves out of practice. Would like

402
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: our scouts and personnel people started paying attention to you

403
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: and everyone was like did you get that one? Did

404
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: you get that one? And they're all excited about it

405
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 1: was great fun. Yeah, it's good. Now, finally, what did

406
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: you think of the special teams? So we saw in

407
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: the spring with the punters and the kickers, Well, I

408
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: think that you know, to be fair about the kicking

409
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,360
Speaker 1: and punting, it is is it is early. The guys have, um,

410
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,479
Speaker 1: you know, when they come out of the season, they

411
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: stopped kicking. You really do. You don't start picking up

412
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 1: a football and start kicking until round May anyways, So

413
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: early on I saw a little bit of inconsistency. But

414
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: as the final mini camp came around, Um, I saw

415
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: Riley Dixon very consistent. At the one practice that I

416
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: saw that we were guessing the the hang times. And

417
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: then the two kickers, I think is gonna be a

418
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: really good battle. I think they're two young guys, obviously

419
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: Aldrik being here last year, but the other guy, I

420
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: can't um, h uh, Cone or con what's this case?

421
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 1: They're going to have a nice competition, I don't believe

422
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 1: And This is my opinion, and I don't know anything

423
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: other than this, that they'll that they'll bring another vetteran

424
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: in here. I think these two guys are gonna battle

425
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: it out. But I did see a good competition. I

426
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,719
Speaker 1: see they're both qualified to to kick in the NFL,

427
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 1: and I think the punting position is going to be,

428
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: you know, one of these things where I think Riley

429
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: Dixon it's his job to lose, but a lot like

430
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: Brad Wings job to lose, he does, he does. He's

431
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: very he's very inconsistent up to this point, and then

432
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: I think the big thing on him at at Denver

433
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: was his inconsistency. So that's what he has to learn

434
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: to get uh, to get better good hang time though,

435
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: But I you're right, from punt to punt, there's a

436
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,919
Speaker 1: lot of variants which I think you're looking. And the

437
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 1: day that we were out there screwing around with the clock,

438
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 1: that was his best day punting and he was hitting

439
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: and those four five seconds. Now for the for the

440
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 1: people that don't know a good punt in a game, okay,

441
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: you can. You can hit four point five four seven

442
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: in practice, you know, and that's okay in a game

443
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: of four point five or four seven is a really

444
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: good kick in the game? Is that because of the

445
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: different balls are there? You know, and if the game

446
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 1: is a little bit faster and things. Just now, you

447
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: hit a five second kick, and I've seen him in

448
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: the game, that's a heck of a kick. You hit

449
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 1: a five second punt in practice, that's still a heck

450
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 1: of a kick. Um, But you don't get him as often.

451
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,439
Speaker 1: The guys now are so much bigger and stronger, and

452
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: they're also they were being taught early and then they're

453
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: going to these camps and stuff, so they are getting better.

454
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 1: The position is getting better. And so if you ever

455
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: see sometimes Fox used to do it, remember they used

456
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 1: to do that on TV. They used to they hang

457
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: time for the punts. They took it away. Why wouldn't

458
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: they use the cable balls in practice like the same

459
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 1: way they do in the game, because there's just too many,

460
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 1: like you know, they just you know, there's two many.

461
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 1: Like you can't just have a new ball every day

462
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 1: at practice, but they try to. They do try to, um,

463
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: you know, put every every other week you would have

464
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 1: new footballs because there is a big difference. There's a

465
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: big difference, um, Just like in baseball, how they rubbed

466
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: the baseballs with mud. Yeah, there's a big difference between

467
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: a brand new baseball right out a box and one

468
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: that's been for the pensack and mud down there. Now,

469
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: the other you pointed out to me that thought was

470
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: really interesting was you were timing the drop from when

471
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 1: he hatched the ball to when he drops it to

472
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: when the ball hits the foot. Explain how you time

473
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:38,959
Speaker 1: that and why it's import Well, here's the port. So

474
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 1: you know how punts get blocked because the punter sometimes

475
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: takes too long to kick it. So a good rule

476
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: of thumb is in a long snapper like Zach diosci

477
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: Um anybody in the NFL for that matter, there by

478
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: the time they snap the ball fifteen yards and the

479
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 1: punter catches it, it's usually under a second point seven

480
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: five eight oh. So do the math. So by the

481
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 1: time the punter catches it, he should be able to

482
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: catch it and kick it within one point to five seconds.

483
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: So you want to get the ball off under second

484
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 1: right around two seconds, one thousand one, one thousand two gone.

485
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: That's that's the number from the point of the snap.

486
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: Two seconds. A field goal. A field goal is anything

487
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: between one point two five and one point four zero

488
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: from snap to kick. Wow, that's fast, people realize, how

489
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: Like take a stop Watch one day and just go

490
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:40,919
Speaker 1: one thousand one. That's the kick, you know. And so

491
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem that way on TV, but when you're

492
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,119
Speaker 1: practicing it over and over and over, it's it doesn't

493
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 1: it's enough time. But you know those guys are only

494
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: eight yards away on a field goal, so you really

495
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,439
Speaker 1: have to be able to lift it and kick it

496
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: and get off in times. All right, we will play

497
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: did you play with Jeff Field? Put them out? Let's

498
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: get to the phones at Marco in Connecticut will lead

499
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,959
Speaker 1: us off. Hey Marco, how are you? Hey guys, how

500
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: are you doing well? Good afternoon, sir, how are you good?

501
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: Good afternoon? Um? Before I jumped into my Giants talk,

502
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: I just want to say John and to any of

503
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: the listeners, John, you have become one of my favorite

504
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 1: NBA Nicks on Twitter. I appreciate that. Thank you, And

505
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: and it's a it's a different smelk that we're used

506
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 1: to here, which I like. It's like your alter ego

507
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: that really you got a lot of bite on you

508
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 1: about the Knicks. Well, Marco here's the thing. The Giants

509
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 1: have me here to be a reporter. I report on

510
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,400
Speaker 1: the team, I give information. No, I'm serious. And f

511
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: A N has me cover the Knicks as a blogger

512
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: and they want they give me my job to give

513
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,159
Speaker 1: an opinion and to be editorial on things. So the

514
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: two jobs I'm being asked to do, they're very, very different. John,

515
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 1: I feel like i've you know, I've been listening for

516
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: so long. I feel I've grown up to do. So

517
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: this is fun. It's fun to see you in both uh,

518
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 1: both venues. Let's put it that way. So you you

519
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 1: do a great job. Though. I appreciate that. Thank you,

520
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: you're here. So when they when they make their pick tonight,

521
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: I will be thinking of you. Let's just say that, Okay,

522
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Hopefully they pick one of the bridges. Yeah,

523
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 1: I've gotten that from you. Yes, not Bob. Okay. So

524
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: the special team stuff, you guys kind of um, that's

525
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: what I was calling about. I wanted to ask about

526
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 1: some of the special teams, you guys. But with Dixon,

527
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: Jeff was what the Broncos brought in? The funner from

528
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: Oakland cut and then was it merely just King is

529
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: an upgrade over Dixon. But what happened what happened with

530
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: Dixon in Denver, Well, I think he was inconsistent, and

531
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 1: I think that Rodney, uh, not Rodney King, Marquette King

532
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: is definitely an upgrade. I mean, he's a bomber and

533
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: I think you get it out altitude. He really can

534
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: flip the field. Um. And so that's what happened there.

535
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: And so the Giants saw an opportunity for a young guy,

536
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: UM who's been in the league and just needs to

537
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: get better consistency, and they gave up a conditional seventh

538
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: round draft pick for him. So you know, if he

539
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,880
Speaker 1: makes a team, great, If he doesn't, it's no risk.

540
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: So I think that that's what you'll see. You have

541
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: a good competition between the two guys that are here.

542
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: But his consistent, his inconsistency has got to become better.

543
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: He's got to be get more consistent. Okay, I'll be

544
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: looking for that because I think special teams is an

545
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: area where uh, we're not talking about enough that it's

546
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 1: a little a little scary, maybe just because it's very

547
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 1: unknown right now. But the one thing, the one thing

548
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: I feel good about is that there's competition there on,

549
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: both with the kicking and the funny. Sure sure, And

550
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: I will tell you know we've said this before on

551
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 1: on air, the Dave Gentleman is a big special teams guy.

552
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: So he's not only just the kickers and the punter.

553
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 1: He's a guy that's gonna go out and get players

554
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 1: to play special teams. And he did by the way,

555
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas, Teddy William and William. I mean there are

556
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: some veteran guys that can play your good, good court

557
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: special teams. Cody latim Or even played That's who was that? Yeah, yeah,

558
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 1: and you got hers like you know that. So I mean, yeah, listen,

559
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: that special teams group last year was just as bad

560
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: as the rest of the team. I mean it was horrible, horrible.

561
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna have to improve. I'm gonna ask you guys

562
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: a question. I asked this to Paul Oh. Marco going once,

563
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 1: Marco going twice, and see if his phone kicks back

564
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: in Marco, you can call us back and ask that

565
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: final question if you like. But we lost you. I

566
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: think he really he was thinking back to when he

567
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 1: talked to Paul Lance and maybe it give him a

568
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: little bit of like post traumatic stress or something like that.

569
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't blame turn his phone off. Let's

570
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: go to at him in New Jersey. He's up next.

571
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: Hey Adam, how are you, buddy? You're online them? Hi?

572
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 1: How you guys doing good up? Jeff? Thanks for the

573
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 1: Super Bowl forty two is pretty memorable. You're welcome, So

574
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: you are absolutely welcome. But that game was all about

575
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: the punting, no doubt, no question. I want to talk

576
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: about two guys, usually one on defense and one on offense.

577
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 1: First on offense, Eli Manning. I know you guys are

578
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: playing and over under with him. So I have the

579
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: numbers that I think that he will produce this year,

580
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 1: all right. I think he's gonna have fourth thousand, three

581
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards. I think thirty touchdowns and fifteen receptions,

582
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: and I think he'll be below the UH number that

583
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: you guys put out. That's fair. Yeah, those are those

584
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: are very reattainable numbers. I mean ESPEC might be a

585
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,239
Speaker 1: little bit high, but I think the other numbers are

586
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: right in the neighborhood. I will tell you this, and

587
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: if he if he does reach forty three, the Giants

588
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: are in good ship. They're really good ship. Yeah, absolutely,

589
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 1: The only reason I'm I'm saying those numbers is because

590
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: I think the Kawan Barkley will help extend drives on

591
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 1: the little dump offs. So I think with the offense

592
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: that they're gonna spread it around. Obviously, but last year

593
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 1: the problem was, you know, once we had no receivers,

594
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: you know, we had to run the football, and obviously

595
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: we had lack of talent on the outside. This year,

596
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: I think with the better offensive line, he's going to

597
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: have numbers that we saw in sixteen. But I don't

598
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: think it's going to be the same way. I think

599
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna be more on dump off and tight end

600
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: screens and things like that. So that's why I think

601
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 1: he's gonna get those numbers asked for o Z. My

602
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 1: question is to you guys, is do you think he's

603
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: going to be the team sack leader over under eleven sacks?

604
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: And also, how do you think this defense is going

605
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: to um enhanced his his past lessing skills like he

606
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: had in Miami? He played the three four there it

607
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: looked like he was more his stand up guy there.

608
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: Do you think this defense fits his skill set better?

609
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: And I'll take it off the air. Thanks, thank you, Adam.

610
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: I appreciate always get to hear from your talent. I

611
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 1: gotta believe that this defense fits him because down in

612
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: Miami he played at three four and did very well.

613
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: But I have to if you go back and look

614
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 1: at James Betcher's defense, there really has not we we

615
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: said this the other day, has not been a player

616
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: that come out of that system that has done well.

617
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: But there's no second guy. Chandler Jones has been the star.

618
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: So I mean, I talked to James Becher's that we're

619
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: gonna add the interview at the end of the month

620
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: of July, right before camp starts, and I asked him

621
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: and this, I personally asked him this questions. We actually

622
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: had this conversation last week. I went, you know, coach,

623
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: a lot of people talk about your scheme generating sacks

624
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 1: and pressure. Right, can you go sixteen games and rely

625
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 1: on your scheme to generate pressure? He goes, No, absolutely not.

626
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: What the scheme is designed to do is not to

627
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 1: create you know, free rushers. Yeah, it'll happen every once

628
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: in a while, but you're not gonna get that all

629
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: the time. The whole point is to bring enough guys

630
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 1: where you forced the offense to block your best players

631
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 1: one on one, and then it's the job of your

632
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: best players to win those one on one matchups. But

633
00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: he said, if you want to be a team that

634
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: generates a consistent pass rush, your guys have to win

635
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: one on one. So um, I don't think it's a

636
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: matter of the scheme giving Verdon easy opportunities, but I

637
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: think the scheme will do a good job getting him

638
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: one on one opportunities. She has to win, and I

639
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 1: think eleven is a good number. I'm gonna go under eleven,

640
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: but if you would have given me ten, I would

641
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: go over. I think he's going to be right in

642
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: that ten to eleven area, because I think twelve might

643
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: be asking a little bit much, but I think ten

644
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: or eleven is very very reasonable. That's why I look

645
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: at I'm gonna go under. I think I'm gonna even

646
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: go under the ten. Okay, why is that? I just

647
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 1: don't I don't know. I just I don't know. I

648
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. I just said that he's

649
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: gonna get hurt. I think I don't think he's a

650
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: player he used to be. I really don't. I'm not

651
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: to say that he's not a good player anymore. I

652
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: just haven't seen enough out of him in the last

653
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 1: two years. And to convey it to me that he

654
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: can go from what he's done in the last two

655
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 1: years here two up to twelve sacks and put them

656
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: with that, I hope he's only double digit sacks once

657
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: in his career. Is not like you're, you know, so

658
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: losing your mind. And like I said, it's not a

659
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 1: knock on him, it's just I just think it's it's

660
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot for him. It's the numbers high

661
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: for him. If it would be like asking me to

662
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: average forty six yards a punt when it's you know,

663
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: I've only done it maybe no time. What if I

664
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: put it in nine, I would give you nine. You

665
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: would go over nine. I would go over nine. So

666
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: I'm like, and there, I'm like nine and a half

667
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: where you're ten and a half. So you're like nine

668
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 1: to ten. I'm like ten to left. So he kind

669
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 1: of like maybe that one extra in there will be

670
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: like that touchsacon who knows. Yeah. Look, and guys, here's

671
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: the thing. I know people don't like to hear this,

672
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 1: and I say it all this time, and I'm sure

673
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: people get annoyed by and I say about interceptions all

674
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,080
Speaker 1: the time, but sometimes getting sacks is lucky to know absolutely,

675
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 1: you know, on a certain play where the quarterback happens

676
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: to hold a ball out of rolls out right into

677
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: you and all the other things gives all these the

678
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: tap sack is the one that's like they run when

679
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks in the ground and here running too to touch,

680
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 1: IM going to get us out or maybe the you

681
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 1: get lucky because the opposing offensive line has a miscommunication,

682
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 1: they'll block you. It's like all these stupid little things

683
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: that you don't control, which is why I think when

684
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: you know, Pro Football Focus likes to use pressure um

685
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: when they determine that pass rushers are because it's a

686
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,279
Speaker 1: more consistent metric year to year based on how good

687
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,359
Speaker 1: the players. And and I want to ask the guy

688
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 1: next or Thursday, next week, you know what what And

689
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 1: you say, okay, if they do the statistic on pressure,

690
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,880
Speaker 1: at what point in time does the does the statistic?

691
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: How do you how do you measure it? That's what

692
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,439
Speaker 1: I'm saying, like, like do you have to be two

693
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 1: feet from the quarterback and that's a pressure or is

694
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 1: it he throws it and he touches the guy. You know,

695
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: these are the things that I'd like to know is

696
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 1: how they equate to what is what is determined as

697
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: a pressure? Great question, Absolutely, look forth talking about it.

698
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: Next Thursday, We're gonna have that deep dive on analytics

699
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 1: with our boys over a pro football focus. Let's go

700
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: to Jason up in Maine. He's up next day. Jason.

701
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: How are you hey? Good? How are you eyes great?

702
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: What's up? Jason? Not too much? Hey? Just get a

703
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: question for you, Jeff Um. Thursday night in football? How

704
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: hard is it? I'm always I'm usually concerned when when

705
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,719
Speaker 1: when the men play on the road on a Thursday night,

706
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 1: because I just how much to do the players get

707
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 1: up for this game? Is it hard for them to

708
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: except for a game like that where they have yeah, like,

709
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: what is that like? For that? I don't think anybody.

710
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody gets up for the Thursday night games.

711
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: The only advantage to Thursday night game as you get

712
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: ten days to your next game. Is there a big

713
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:36,720
Speaker 1: difference between home and road. Um, not a big difference. Obviously.

714
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 1: The travel is because it's a Thursday night game and

715
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: you're getting home very late on Friday. But how about

716
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 1: going into the game, the less time to rest because

717
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 1: you have to travel on that Wednesday, Ran there is

718
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 1: a there is a big different. There is an advantage

719
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: of being home because you do not have to get

720
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 1: on a plane and leave. Um. But there you know,

721
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: for both teams the disadvantages coming off of a Sunday

722
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: game and going into a third day, there's no recovery,

723
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: especially if you're if you're an older team, you know

724
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 1: your quarterbacks, you're running back some of the older guys.

725
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: You mean, they may not practice all week because of

726
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: the of the short time. But the good part about

727
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 1: it as you get to ten days after. But nobody

728
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: likes playing them. I can tell you that I could

729
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: do without them. I really could. I don't like Thursday

730
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: night games anyways. Yeah, that was my next question. Do

731
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: you guys think they should keep it? Do you think

732
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:25,880
Speaker 1: they should keep it Sunday to Sunday or Monday? Well, Jason,

733
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: let me put it this way. Did you see the

734
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: NFL just signed with Fox to broadcast Thursday night football.

735
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: It ain't going anywhere if they're getting checks like that

736
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,479
Speaker 1: to do Thursday night Football and after or somebody paid

737
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: their Amazon. But they say Here's what I don't get,

738
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: and this is what bothers me. Why Thursday night? Why

739
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't you make it Tuesday night football? Why wouldn't you

740
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: make it Friday night football? Can't do Friday. I know,

741
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: you can't do Friday because the high schools then make it.

742
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, you can't do Saturday because of the college.

743
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 1: To me, Wednesday and Thursday the with the worst days.

744
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 1: It right in the middle of the damn week, and

745
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: it only gives you, like, you know, two days or

746
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 1: three days to get ready. I just feel like it

747
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 1: would be much much better if the that extra night

748
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: of football, which you know might be overkill at some point,

749
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: might be too much. What what We'll see how the

750
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 1: fans continue to react to it, and what happens with

751
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: the collective bargain agreement. And I think it is um

752
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 1: but I don't know what. Why Thursday. I think it

753
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: all started with the game was so popular that people

754
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 1: couldn't wait until Sunday again, you know, and they had

755
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: the Sunday and Monday and then you're done, Oh my god,

756
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: we gotta wait till Sunday, And well, hey, how already

757
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,000
Speaker 1: throw a game in on Thursday night? Yeah, you know,

758
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,960
Speaker 1: and then and then you know you've got people that

759
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 1: are gonna pay for it, then let's do it. I

760
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 1: would love to get back to the day when the

761
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: Monday night football game was the big game of the

762
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 1: week and not the Sunday night. And it used to

763
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: be because I get the Sunday night and look, no

764
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 1: one loves the NFL more than I do. And you know,

765
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: you're kind of just like I'm tired. I've watched football

766
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 1: day the game's on to like midnight. You know, it's hard.

767
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 1: You know, Monday night, though you get a full day

768
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 1: without a game, you could rev yourself up for that

769
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: one game the whole day. It's like an event. Old

770
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: school Monday night football and that was the big game

771
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 1: of the week used to be so much fun. It's

772
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:21,720
Speaker 1: not as exciting to me when it's on Sunday because

773
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: you can tape it or you can see it the

774
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: next day. And I mean back in the day, you

775
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: didn't have the you know, you didn't have any of

776
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 1: that stuff. You had to watch it, so you went

777
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: out and did it. And I think that you know

778
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: what makes sense to me, um Jason, And to answer

779
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 1: your question about Thursday night football, is that if that

780
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 1: if the league could somehow guarantee that a team coming

781
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 1: off of the Thursday night game or going into the

782
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: Thursday it just has enough rest. You know that you're

783
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: not on the road on a Thursday night, you know,

784
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: on a Sunday game, and then go on the road

785
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 1: for a Thursday night game. That's just ludicrous, especially if

786
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: you're on a Sunday night game. I think there was

787
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 1: I think it was it might have been Green Bay

788
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 1: last year that played a Sunday night football game, you know,

789
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: at nine o'clock, eight thirty or whatever it was, and

790
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 1: then had a Thursday night game. Now, that's not that's

791
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: not cool because you know, that's what you think about

792
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 1: what time you're getting home, regardless if it's home or away,

793
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: it's after midnight anyways. And then you're gonna turn around

794
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,720
Speaker 1: and you have to travel to go to a Thursday

795
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: night game, which means you're leaving on Wednesday. Yeah, that's

796
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: no good. You can't do that, Dare. It has to

797
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 1: be some talk about that. So, but Thursday night football,

798
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: to answer your question, is not going away as long

799
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 1: as one more question for you. Yeah, um, I'm just

800
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 1: wondering to your guys opinion. I know it's kind of early,

801
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 1: but just for now, just just for sake of conversation,

802
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,799
Speaker 1: do you guys feel the running game this year will

803
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 1: average at least a hundred yards per game? And I'll

804
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: take it off the air from there, thanks, guys. A

805
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: hundred yards per game is a lot. Um. Let me say,

806
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,839
Speaker 1: hold on, let me take a look at how many

807
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: now rushing yards? I think rather than go let me

808
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: let me, I'm going to give you an opportunity. I

809
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: don't did Jason Leaf? I think he's yes here here

810
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 1: would be my answer to that, and I wouldn't judge

811
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 1: it on the amount of yards per game. I would

812
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 1: be more impressed if you could if we could get

813
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: attempts in there? Okay, Like, does that make sense to

814
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say, Like, rather than have put

815
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: so much emphasis on will they get one hundred yards

816
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 1: yards per carry? More than I am? More yards per

817
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 1: carry exactly than I am for yards per game? All right?

818
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: Last year? How many rushing yards per game do you

819
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 1: think the Giants average? Jeff? What do you think as

820
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: a team now one believe it or not? Nineties six

821
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:42,280
Speaker 1: point eight? So they will be over one year Um.

822
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 1: But again a lot of that comes from all of

823
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: Eli Mannings running and scrambling from the quarterback is a

824
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: touchdown last year? Um, that's definitely going over hundred. People

825
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: don't realize how much when you have multiple running back

826
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,879
Speaker 1: it actually adds up at the end of the day. Um.

827
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,279
Speaker 1: Do I think, say Kewan Barkloo average hundred yards game? No?

828
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 1: I think that's probably a little bit high. As a team.

829
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: I think they was it was Is there a team

830
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 1: yards per carry or is it just goes an individual? Yeah?

831
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: That teams yards per carry were not over four three

832
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 1: point nine last year, which is actually better than I

833
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 1: thought it was, to be honest with probably, like I

834
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,879
Speaker 1: know we were and three four or five six eight

835
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: teams or worse. I think the Giants were ninth worst.

836
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 1: So who who was who? Let it? Uh? The Jasonal

837
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: Jaguars and they were yards per game a hundred forty

838
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,160
Speaker 1: one and yards per carry were there at five? Um No,

839
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: just four point three. The two teams with the highest

840
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 1: yards per carry, believe it or not, Take a guess

841
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 1: who do you think the two teams with the highest

842
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: yards per carry war? Um? Rams one of them? Um No?

843
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: The Rams were four point three, much like Jacksonville. Um oh,

844
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: New Orleans four point seven. That's one and one of

845
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: the team was also four point seven. Atlanta. No, Atlanta

846
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: was four point three as well. It's a team you

847
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't think of off the bat, a FC team and

848
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:08,439
Speaker 1: a team Steelers. No, not the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cincinnati. Where

849
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: are this, dude? No, not the bengu That's where I

850
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't think of. That's right, Steelers are only down at

851
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: three point believe it or not, and the Bengals are

852
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 1: at three point six. All I'll even give you the

853
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 1: comment they were about this. They were a playoff team.

854
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: Um well, trying to remember that. Jets were already saying Jacksonville,

855
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:34,240
Speaker 1: New England four point two. You're running out of playoff teams, Jeff,

856
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:39,360
Speaker 1: I don't remember. Okay, a f C West, f C West,

857
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: um let's ac you get one more guests and then

858
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to just forget about the teams. They were

859
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 1: also a UM The ards per carry rushing No. The

860
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 1: top five yards per game Jaguars one, Cowboys one thirty six,

861
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 1: Eagles one thirty two, Panthers one third one, Saints one nine.

862
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: Then the bill slipped in there one six with the

863
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: Shawn McCoy, believe it or not, and I think Tyrod

864
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 1: probably helped that number two. If you go back and

865
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: what you just said, you look at the Cowboys and

866
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 1: the Viking seven by the way, Rams eight, Chiefs nine,

867
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 1: Pats ten. Alright, So even with the Eagles in the

868
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 1: in the in the Cowboys with those two numbers from

869
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 1: last year, and if you get the Giants running game

870
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:22,919
Speaker 1: going and both were four and a half yards per carry,

871
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: Eagles and Cowboys, take those three teams out of the

872
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 1: four teens in the in the NFC East becoming a

873
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 1: and remember that's becoming the old NFC East. The Redskins

874
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: also picked who people think was the second best running

875
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: back in the draft, and Darius guys and they have

876
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 1: a pretty good offensive line too, so it could be

877
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: a old school black and blue type division. Let's go

878
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 1: back to the calls and go to Charlie in Portland maintenance.

879
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 1: Lancesent on, I'm gonna run the open start feeling about thiselujahs,

880
00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:02,600
Speaker 1: I am happy. So Lance is like following an official protest. Jeff,

881
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,359
Speaker 1: he doesn't want the same play. I'm not sure. If

882
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: he says to me the other day when we were

883
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,399
Speaker 1: on and Charlie call and he goes, I'm not going

884
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: to play the open, but I'll go to Charlie. His

885
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: quote is that every caller should have an open, not

886
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 1: you know what, we could do that if you want

887
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: to make your own open center. And by the way,

888
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 1: and I don't, don't and and my point, by the way,

889
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:23,399
Speaker 1: it's not like the open is over. It's like very

890
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 1: complimentary of Charlie. It's not like it's it was what happened. Well,

891
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 1: it's a little column. A little column, Bay, you haven't

892
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: heard the other part of it. A lance to says

893
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:37,839
Speaker 1: opening envy. That's all. Just wants his own open. Well,

894
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: he gets to open every big blue show that he hosts.

895
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,759
Speaker 1: So what the heck? What are you doing? Charlie? Do you?

896
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: Thank you? You got you got my post that the

897
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: lobster was ridiculous. Thank you so much. You had a

898
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,319
Speaker 1: great time. I was glad you guys enjoyed it did.

899
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 1: Thank you nothing like sweet lobster from me. Right, Yeah,

900
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,840
Speaker 1: it was really really good. I would have loved to

901
00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 1: try it, but I guess that wasn't in the not

902
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: not with my family at home, there was nothing left.

903
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 1: John John I'll hook you up. Don't worry. I'll hook

904
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,879
Speaker 1: you up. Don't worry about it. I'm just joking. I'm

905
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm honestly not even a huge lobster guy. I would

906
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 1: have obviously had something like lobster. I don't love it

907
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: was able to maybe since a little shrimp you got

908
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:32,879
Speaker 1: some A plus on our producer that that was pretty good. Hey,

909
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 1: what like like a Thursday night football? I think we

910
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: should have two games on Monday night. Why don't we

911
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: just do two games on Monday night? Get rid of

912
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: Thursday night. Let the other station, you know, carry that game.

913
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 1: You could have one starting at seven, one starting at whatever,

914
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: or one starting a little early one on the West coast?

915
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: Do that do that? Now? Where do they do that

916
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 1: on Sunday night? They do that? Don't? So we should

917
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: do that though, on like Monday night and have two games.

918
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,359
Speaker 1: What time would you start the first game? What time

919
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 1: would you start the second game? Well? I think we

920
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 1: have to start the first game at least seven o'clock,

921
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: maybe six. I think you'd have to go six to

922
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 1: be honest with you. Yeah, and then the next game

923
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 1: you start around nine. So then you get two games

924
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 1: in and everyone's happy and you don't have to do

925
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 1: Thursday night anymore. Yeah, that's a lot of football for

926
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,319
Speaker 1: a weeknight when somebody's going to work the next day.

927
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 1: I see where you're coming from. I would still love

928
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 1: Friday or Saturday. If they could figure that out with

929
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: with high school Saturday, I think that'd be perfect. Saturday

930
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 1: would the NFL would not be watching? So how about

931
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 1: Friday night? Why can't we get a Friday night? Night?

932
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,800
Speaker 1: Might be okay? I mean, what's the new football? I

933
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 1: think the last year? Is there a law against not

934
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,359
Speaker 1: playing the NFL games on Friday night? There might be

935
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:57,280
Speaker 1: some type of weird law or something like that. Custom

936
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 1: Now they have a lot of stupid laws out there, Charlie.

937
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 1: Never never be surprised at the number of stupid laws

938
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: that are on the book. So go you know, Oh man,

939
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,240
Speaker 1: So I'm hey, I'm working on an opening for lands.

940
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 1: Are just going to give you the start of it.

941
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 1: Go ahead. I can't hear it, well, Charlie, what song

942
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:31,840
Speaker 1: was that? It was hard for us to hear it?

943
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:35,919
Speaker 1: What was that? Sounds like la Vernon Shirley, Charlie? What

944
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 1: was that? Did we lose? Charlie? Is he what you

945
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,440
Speaker 1: didn't even know. I think we got here. What was that, Charlie,

946
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 1: I couldn't hear what that was. Oh, it's Randy Newman's.

947
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 1: We don't want no short people around here. Okay, I'm

948
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,319
Speaker 1: going to work on it. You need to definitely work

949
00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: on it. We could barely hear it. Probably had it

950
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 1: too close to the Thank you, Charlie. Thank you identified

951
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: the name of the song. It makes more sense. We

952
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:15,319
Speaker 1: don't want to know short people around here now, Lance

953
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:19,440
Speaker 1: support Lands. I mean, you know this is what it is.

954
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean the guy, you know, we gotta sandbags. It's funny.

955
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how mean it is like it now.

956
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,319
Speaker 1: Dave makes a good point here. Uh, this is the

957
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 1: best argument that he's heard from Thursday third heard about

958
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 1: Thursday night Football, and I happen to agree with him. Um,

959
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,720
Speaker 1: no one had an issue with the Cowboys and Lines

960
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,200
Speaker 1: playing on Thanksgiving. You never heard anybody complain about it,

961
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: or those two teams complain about it. By the way,

962
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:43,359
Speaker 1: so every year four and then six teams will play

963
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: one Thursday game year at the end of the year.

964
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 1: No one will complain about that, right, no complain? So

965
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 1: why is that okay? But it's not okay? For all

966
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 1: thirty two teams to play one Thursday game each year.

967
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:56,960
Speaker 1: And in fact, if I recall, the constant complaint always

968
00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 1: used to be the Lions and Cowboys were getting a

969
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 1: don't quote extra bye week by playing that Thursday game,

970
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: and it was such an advantage for them to get

971
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 1: the extra game. Now, all of a sudden, it's the

972
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:12,120
Speaker 1: worst thing ever. I think it's a I think that's

973
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:16,879
Speaker 1: a little funny. I think here's the main I think

974
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 1: what people saying now is more accurate. I think up here,

975
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: I think it is hard to get ready for the

976
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 1: Thursday games with players are coming from trees. I think

977
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,759
Speaker 1: it's really difficult. But I just think it shows you

978
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 1: the type of nonsense the teams were spewing when they

979
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,760
Speaker 1: were complaining about the Lines and Cowboys playing on Thursday.

980
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 1: That was all nonsense as just what you're making. And

981
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 1: now when it came like, oh, hey, you get the

982
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:44,799
Speaker 1: opportunity to do it now, really, Willie, Yeah, no, it's

983
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:47,359
Speaker 1: it's it is, But I will tell you that, like

984
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,160
Speaker 1: I said, the only good thing about is that you

985
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:51,879
Speaker 1: get the ten days off afterwards, and that can help

986
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: a team with injuries. If you guys, some guys coming back.

987
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:56,600
Speaker 1: But do do on the one beef I have with

988
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: the Giant schedule this year? That is how the how

989
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 1: tough it is. What's the one good thing about Monday

990
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 1: Night football? You get the extra day leading into it, right, okay,

991
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 1: one day of extra preparations. Well, you don't when the

992
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: John's play the Monday night football game this year after

993
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:17,560
Speaker 1: the damn bye week. Really, that's when you're given the

994
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 1: Monday night game after the stupid bye week and you

995
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 1: gotta go to San Francisco to play a night game.

996
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 1: Let me come on, man, the extra day another week? Please,

997
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:34,480
Speaker 1: that's the last extra week. Yeah, now, you wouldn't want

998
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 1: it on that day because that that's not that's already

999
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 1: coming around again. And then and then you gotta get

1000
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 1: home at like six o'clock in the morning, literally six

1001
00:50:44,320 --> 00:50:46,360
Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning on Tuesday morning, and then you

1002
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,360
Speaker 1: have the short week after you play in San Francisco. Seriously,

1003
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 1: that's what you're doing. That's not fun. And I'm being selfish.

1004
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 1: I know people don't care about my traveils on my travel,

1005
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 1: but that that sticks. But that's what I was talking about,

1006
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: Like there has to be some you know, there's gotta

1007
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: be some concessions in there with those Thursday games or

1008
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,839
Speaker 1: even Monday games for about travel time and where you're

1009
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: coming from. Well, you heard about the Yankees thing with

1010
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:13,840
Speaker 1: Sunday football this year, right with Sunday Baseball. So the

1011
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,680
Speaker 1: Yankees had a rain out against the Nationals earlier in

1012
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:19,319
Speaker 1: the year, right or the Orioles, I think it was

1013
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: the Orioles, Okay, and the game got rescheduled on a

1014
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: Monday for I think one o'clock. Well, about a week

1015
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 1: after that happened, ESPN option the Giant the Yankees blue

1016
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: Jay's game to Sunday Night Baseball, So they were gonna

1017
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 1: ask the Yankees to Sunday Night, not get out of Toronto,

1018
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 1: but you gotta go through customers in You're in Canada too,

1019
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 1: so it takes long. So you're probably not gonna get

1020
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:46,399
Speaker 1: out of there at twelve one o'clock in the morning.

1021
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,320
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get to Baltimore until three or four,

1022
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 1: bed until five or six. Then they wanted to play

1023
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,399
Speaker 1: game at one o'clock that day. So the Yankees basically said,

1024
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 1: if you don't change this game, we're going to boycott

1025
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:00,279
Speaker 1: ESPN the rest of the year. And not do any

1026
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 1: interviews with him, and very quickly the game got moved

1027
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 1: back to one power. That's a good, good choice, isn't

1028
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:10,880
Speaker 1: it all right? Final call the show. Let's go to

1029
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 1: Duke and Queens. Duke, you are bias? How are you? Hey? Yeah,

1030
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: I gotta like the total NBA in spine questions. Um,

1031
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,400
Speaker 1: you know we're going. You don't know where he's going yet.

1032
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:28,240
Speaker 1: So he's supposedly going to the Lakers with Kauai and PG,

1033
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,440
Speaker 1: and I thought the room is now, and I want

1034
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: to task you guys m to make like a like

1035
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 1: a big four, like to mimic like the NBA's teams,

1036
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 1: but to specifically mimic the Warriors team in this supposed

1037
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 1: Lakers teams. So we're big four in the in the

1038
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,840
Speaker 1: I guess anc and then like a big three in

1039
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:55,040
Speaker 1: in the NFC. And the requirement is to have one

1040
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,640
Speaker 1: quarterback to be one of the three or one of

1041
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 1: the four. And then ask you do I know it's

1042
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 1: kind of complicated if you guys have any questions about it. Okay,

1043
00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 1: So are there any rules? Okay? Are there are there

1044
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,360
Speaker 1: any rules as to what players we can take or

1045
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 1: we can take any player off of any team in

1046
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 1: both conferences, any playoffs, any team, okay, whatever the rules are.

1047
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 1: The players has to be a quarterback, and so maybe

1048
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:28,240
Speaker 1: make it easier, the rest has to be a wide receiver. Okay,

1049
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 1: so you need one quarterback, one wide receiver, and then

1050
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 1: and then the other two or one player can be anybody. Okay,

1051
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,279
Speaker 1: So we're gonna start the a f C. Uh if

1052
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,960
Speaker 1: I can make my own custom big four in the

1053
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:43,279
Speaker 1: a f C. Um, you have to take Tom Brady. Yeah,

1054
00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,359
Speaker 1: you have to take Tom Brady. I think I pick.

1055
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick. It's too hard. I was gonna say,

1056
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Jalen Ramsey as a cornerback, all right.

1057
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: Regarded the receiver, I'm gonna take Antonio Brown is my

1058
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:02,799
Speaker 1: wide receiver. And now do I take No, I'm gonna

1059
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,080
Speaker 1: take a pass rusher. I'm gonna take Khalil mac is

1060
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,800
Speaker 1: my defensive end pass rusher. How about that? That's my

1061
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: big four in the a f C, my big three

1062
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: in the NFC, and you on only three in the NFC, right, Duke,

1063
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:20,640
Speaker 1: big three in the NFC. Give me one has to

1064
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:25,319
Speaker 1: be a quarterback. I think you have to take Aaron Rodgers. Yep,

1065
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:30,680
Speaker 1: you gotta take Aaron Rodgers a quarterback. Um, I don't

1066
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,760
Speaker 1: think of running again. I think running backs are more fungible,

1067
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,840
Speaker 1: so I'm not going to go there. One has to

1068
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 1: be a wide receiver. NFC. Do you go Julio Jones

1069
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:47,320
Speaker 1: or do you go Odell Well? I think because O'Dell

1070
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: is now I know he does. He doesn't. He doesn't

1071
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 1: score a lot of touchdowns. I know. I hear you.

1072
00:54:52,880 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 1: I hear you. Dell's coming off an injury. Though, I'll go,

1073
00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:05,480
Speaker 1: all right, I'll go I'll go Rogers. Since Rogers likes

1074
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,680
Speaker 1: to throw the back shoulder catching, I think Julio Jones

1075
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 1: is better at that play than Beckham is. I'm gonna

1076
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 1: go Julio, And then from my third guy, I will go.

1077
00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I could just go and be a monster

1078
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 1: offensive team and pick like Ezekie Elliott or something like that. Oh,

1079
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,360
Speaker 1: you know what, I want to protect my quarterback. You know,

1080
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm picking picking Tyrant Smith offensive tag to protect Roger.

1081
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:33,919
Speaker 1: About that? All right, it's a good it's a good question.

1082
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,040
Speaker 1: I think you would get all kinds of different answers

1083
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:37,719
Speaker 1: from different people. That is a really you know what,

1084
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 1: I think you know what, dude, you just motivated me.

1085
00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 1: When we have a show we don't know what going on,

1086
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:43,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make that a topic. And I think that.

1087
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: I think, good call, Duke. I appreciate it. My Lebron.

1088
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: I think Lebron will go to I was I thought

1089
00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: maybe the Spurs without the Kauai wants out of it.

1090
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:58,520
Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna happen. Um. I mean, look,

1091
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,480
Speaker 1: the Lakers is the a fault pick. I think that's boring.

1092
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 1: I don't want to go there, so um, I think,

1093
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 1: you know, I think it's actually really good fit. He'll

1094
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 1: never go there. I think the Timberwolves is actually a

1095
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:13,280
Speaker 1: great fit for him. Put him there with like Wiggins

1096
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,359
Speaker 1: and Tar Anthony Towns. That won't happen, but I think

1097
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:19,399
Speaker 1: that's a good fit. Um, let's let's let's let's put

1098
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,759
Speaker 1: him with and by the way, Milwaukee would also be

1099
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 1: a good fit for him. I don't like what you're

1100
00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 1: gonna Philly, you know, because I don't think him and

1101
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,360
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons worked together. I think they both need the

1102
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,279
Speaker 1: ball on the MNDS. You know what, you know what,

1103
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 1: I'll go Chalk, I'll go Lakers. Sorry, it's boring. Thank you, Duke,

1104
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:43,680
Speaker 1: appreciate all right, we have a very special edition this week.

1105
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:49,160
Speaker 1: You'll see tis favorite games if you get my players

1106
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 1: up here with Jeff Eagels. It's a special edition of

1107
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 1: Official Start of the Summer. By the way, remember the

1108
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,600
Speaker 1: Longest Day, the mockery of my memory? Here's your host

1109
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: that was just so all right, here we go on

1110
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:12,359
Speaker 1: the year. He goes twelve, barely hovering. It's good over.

1111
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, are you ready to go? Basically the

1112
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:22,080
Speaker 1: way the show works, I remember, it's true? All right?

1113
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 1: Are you ready? I am ready? John? All right? Did

1114
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:32,960
Speaker 1: you play with Wendell Carter? Did you play with Wendell

1115
00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 1: hard Arm? Now I remember a window Carter. I do

1116
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:42,920
Speaker 1: not remember Window Carter. I'm sorry, not play would remembered that.

1117
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,400
Speaker 1: Not a lot of Windels in football right now? There

1118
00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 1: are not I agree. Did you play with Jerome Robinson?

1119
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 1: Did you play with Robinson? I don't even think it's

1120
00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:00,480
Speaker 1: a real name. Jerome Robinson's what do you mean It's

1121
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:06,160
Speaker 1: a very common name, Jerome Robinson? You know what? I probably, yeah,

1122
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:14,600
Speaker 1: I did. I just don't know where. It's like, it's

1123
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 1: like the shock treatment I got poke up back. You

1124
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 1: did not play with Jerome Robinson. Did you make that

1125
00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: name up? I'll tell you there. There's a common theme

1126
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 1: to these, all right, number three, this is the last one.

1127
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:35,320
Speaker 1: Did you play with Troy Brown? Remember not necessarily the

1128
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 1: Patriots Troy Brown? There could be more than one. Did

1129
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:41,640
Speaker 1: you play with Troy Brown? No? I didn't play with

1130
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 1: Troy Brown either. You win, get it again again? Now?

1131
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 1: The theme is that these are all prospects that we

1132
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:53,520
Speaker 1: picked in the first round of the NBA Draft tonight.

1133
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 1: So that just goes to show you how I know

1134
00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: nothing about basketball. I've been trying to pick anybody like

1135
00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 1: in the top ten. Serious Joe Robinson is a good

1136
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:10,320
Speaker 1: guard from Plastic, Troy Brown from Oregon, and when they'll

1137
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:12,760
Speaker 1: Carners from Duke when the Carter. I thought you might knew.

1138
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 1: I was worried about that one, but I'm not. Can

1139
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:18,360
Speaker 1: you name one player that's gonna get drafted tonight? Not one?

1140
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:21,160
Speaker 1: Do you know DeAndre Ayton? Does he sound familiar to

1141
00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:26,400
Speaker 1: you at all? No? How about Luca don Chich, Marvin Bagley,

1142
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,400
Speaker 1: Now Trey Young? Anybody from Miami ever heard of Trey Young?

1143
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:37,080
Speaker 1: Trey Young? No, I didn't play with him either. There

1144
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 1: are are There are two Miami guards that oa get

1145
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,920
Speaker 1: picked tonight. Lonnie Walker should be a top fifteen selection,

1146
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:47,160
Speaker 1: a shooting guard. Really tall hair, like some of the

1147
00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 1: tallest hair you've ever seen. It's really impressive, some tall hair,

1148
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,960
Speaker 1: kind of like that kind of you know, I mean, I'll, yeah,

1149
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 1: gotta get a picture up for you. I can't show

1150
00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:57,439
Speaker 1: this on video obviously, so you guys at home can't

1151
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 1: see it. But Lonnie Walker is really really all hair.

1152
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 1: So he's ah, there you go. That is some tall hair. Okay,

1153
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 1: I do recognize that guy. And then Bruce Bruce Bowen,

1154
01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: Bruce Bowen another uh Miami Garden. I'm sorry not, I'm sorry,

1155
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:17,960
Speaker 1: it's not Bruce Bowen. Um, that's the old spur h

1156
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 1: Bruce Lee. Hold On, Bruce Brown, Bruce Brown isn't I'm

1157
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,760
Speaker 1: sorry Brown Bowen hold On. I think it might be

1158
01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:31,120
Speaker 1: Bruce Brown and and and and he's going to be

1159
01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 1: a second round pick. Yeah, Bruce Brown. Sorry. And he

1160
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 1: was supposed to be the best player Mammy last year,

1161
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 1: but he got hurt and he only played the second

1162
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:39,919
Speaker 1: half of the year. So he's a guy that could

1163
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,640
Speaker 1: actually be a second round steel that wouldn't on the

1164
01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 1: next they can look at a round to the next half,

1165
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,240
Speaker 1: number twenty something, number nine. No, they stink. They pick

1166
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 1: high all the time, the picks, but they're not very

1167
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,800
Speaker 1: good either. The net well, the Nets are. This is

1168
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 1: the last year the Nets are sending the draft pick

1169
01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 1: to the Celtics for that awful Kevin Garnett Paul pure

1170
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 1: trade from it is still give it up. Yeah, there's

1171
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 1: a reason they've been bad for a while, Jeff, there's

1172
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,320
Speaker 1: a reason they've been bad for a while. Oh, I'm

1173
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you. I don't know much about basketball.

1174
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 1: And then the fact that it's the rim is ten

1175
01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:15,680
Speaker 1: feet high and most of the players seem to be

1176
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 1: that tall too. You must put some basketball New York.

1177
01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 1: I did, but I'm not a bass. I don't follow basketball.

1178
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 1: That's fine, that's it kind of bores me. But you

1179
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 1: love the golf though, Yeah, you locked into the US

1180
01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,160
Speaker 1: with everybody shooting like the over par. Yeah, I could

1181
01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:31,080
Speaker 1: probably do that golf thing. Do do do? Is this

1182
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:33,160
Speaker 1: a real golfer or not? To you? And you wouldn't know.

1183
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 1: I don't know golfers. You know enough golfers, and I'll

1184
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: bring I'll bring one next time, next time? All right,

1185
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 1: all right for Jeff Eagles on je Okay, what do

1186
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:47,360
Speaker 1: you do for me? No, there's a lot of golfers

1187
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:48,920
Speaker 1: out there you don't know of, and I don't know of.

1188
01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 1: I think that's probably true because every year there's like

1189
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,000
Speaker 1: twenty five or thirty new ones. Don't talk to some

1190
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:55,840
Speaker 1: like Tommy Fleetwood, Tommy Fleetwood with the with the mouet,

1191
01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: Jim Fiork and Jim Puk. Yeah good good, Yeah, by

1192
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 1: the way, we didn't. I know we have to go,

1193
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: but that was an incredible, incredible, uh golf weekend. It's

1194
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,120
Speaker 1: just too hard to get out there. But I I

1195
01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,160
Speaker 1: have played the course and I love watching it on

1196
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:17,160
Speaker 1: TV because you kind of understand the difficulty. It was tough.

1197
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 1: Some of the greens. The positions of the pens is

1198
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 1: what it makes it very and it's not it's not

1199
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,000
Speaker 1: fair to those guys when they miss a put by,

1200
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:25,680
Speaker 1: you know, a foot and it goes off the green

1201
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:29,320
Speaker 1: and Phil Nicholson goes up it and tries to. I've

1202
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:32,080
Speaker 1: never seen anything like that, but he knows the rules. Obviously.

1203
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. But yeah, I'm not a big fan

1204
01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:37,880
Speaker 1: of trying to. I want to see the players play

1205
01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 1: well and on a hard golf course, but I don't

1206
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 1: believe in penalizing them so bad to make them look bad.

1207
01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:45,920
Speaker 1: Do you think it was a fair course, Well, it's

1208
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 1: it's no, it wasn't fair, and that's what you want.

1209
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 1: You want a typical but a fair course. And I agree.
