1
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: This is The Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson

2
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 1: on your twenty four to seven home of the Black

3
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

4
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: Welcome back to our number two The Drive here on

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 2: Steeler Nation Radio and Fox Sports Pittsburgh. This is Dale

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 2: Lolly here with Matt Williamson. We are live from Steelers

7
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: training camp here at Saint Vincent College or Steelers out

8
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 2: there going through some seven on seven stuff here, and

9
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 2: we got Russell Wilson out there now working through the

10
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 2: seven on seven stuff, and I think.

11
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 3: Both of the top quarterbacks have been looking pretty sharp. Yeah, yeah,

12
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 3: a good day for quarterback.

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 2: One more period after this and that should be some

14
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,639
Speaker 2: goal line stuff here. Russell Wilson directing some traffic here,

15
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 2: just at a completion the George Pickens there.

16
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: I can't stress that enough, the directing traffic stuff. I mean,

17
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 3: he just looks like a big time veteran quarterback that

18
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 3: knows exactly where everyone needs to be. He does it even,

19
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: you know, like right there, he completes a pass for

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 3: a couple of yards and he's immediately making substitutions. He's

21
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 3: talking like he's in a game, you know, like everything

22
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 3: is crisp all the time. You know, we got that one,

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 3: it's now it's second and two.

24
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: Let's go.

25
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 3: You know, like everything is fast and processing. Not the

26
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 3: other guys aren't. It's just he's a twelve year veteran.

27
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

28
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just looks, you know, even in a new offense.

29
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 3: I mean, he's not clunky at all. Everything is crisp.

30
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: It's interesting they got him. They've had him out there.

31
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 2: It's been pickings. It's been Van Jefferson and then Calvin Austen.

32
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 2: You think that's the pecking order right now? I do,

33
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: especially with Roman Wilson's injury. Unfortunately, Oh someone put it

34
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 2: on the ground. Yeah, that was Van jeff I poked

35
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 2: it out there on him.

36
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 3: I wonder who stripped that because it was pretty nice play.

37
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 2: I would imagine looked like he was just tucking it

38
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 2: away and somebody reached in and knocked it out. This

39
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: defense is always swatting at the ball and punching at

40
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 2: the ball. Yes, I mean, I don't know how you

41
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: could put Roman Wilson any where in the pecking order

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: as it stands. Frankly, you can't see the field at

43
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: the moment, but it sounds like there's some good news

44
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: on that front. Who knows, but yeah, I think that's

45
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 2: clearly the pecking order. If they're an eleven, I think

46
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 2: it's Pickings Jefferson in Austin. Yeah, now we got the

47
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 2: second group out there. It looks like with Justin Fields

48
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 2: and it's uh, I mean you still have Austin. I

49
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: mean yeah, but no, I think that's the trio you'll

50
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 2: see with the Pickings out there. That's sixty sixteen. That's

51
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: sixteen thirteen, right right, Yeah, you're right, and e two

52
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: so yeah, yeah, and uh, you know, I I think, uh,

53
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 2: at this point in this this is the you said

54
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 2: it the other day, this is the dog days of

55
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 2: training camp a little bit this week, this week alone,

56
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: you know, six consecutive days of practice does get to be.

57
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 3: A little repetitive for everybody, you know, right, Yeah, I

58
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 3: think a day awful, do me? You everyone on the field, coaches,

59
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 3: you know, the lovely people, the cafeteria, everybody, a lot.

60
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: Of good us to reset and then head into the

61
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 2: you know, a game preparation week.

62
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, they're not going to game plan of

63
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 3: courts for the Texans heavily, but it will be a

64
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: different week. There's a light at the end of the tunnel,

65
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 3: so to speak. And we get to get to our

66
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 3: home stadium with a bunch of fans in a different environment,

67
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 3: and be a bunch of these guys first time obviously

68
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: playing in that venue. And I mean, I'm sure that's

69
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 3: exciting too. Yeah, putting on real Steeler gear, you know

70
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 3: that matters in a stadium, in a stadium right right right.

71
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 2: Against it for game day. And I can't stress this enough.

72
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 2: You know, we talked about it yesterday. You know, the

73
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 2: three teams that they're playing in the preseason this year

74
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: got a good you know, Houston, Buffalo and Detroit. You know,

75
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 2: if you want to consider and the Steelers consider themselves

76
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: a good team, sure, but you want to measure yourself

77
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: against those teams a little bit. Yeah.

78
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 3: I mean I haven't made my official predictions for divisions

79
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 3: and all that thing, all that stuff, but pretty certain

80
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,119
Speaker 3: I'll put all three of those teams in the playoffs.

81
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 3: I think Buffalo still is a really good chance to

82
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 3: win their division. Now you're not going to see Allen

83
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 3: and Stroud and Golf and Penny Suwell and all those guys. Yeah,

84
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: maybe SS series maybe. I mean, I don't know what

85
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 3: every team is going to handle it. But you still

86
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: rather play good teams, especially in that joint practice that's

87
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 3: coming up. I mean, we haven't talked a ton about that,

88
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 3: but the Bills are coming to town to do a

89
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 3: joint practice that will be maybe more like a game

90
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 3: than a preseason game. I mean, if you're if you're

91
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: doing goal line, it's going to be as if it's

92
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 3: live you know, I mean, or all those things. And

93
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 3: so be good to practice against the Bills.

94
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. And again that's a team that you

95
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 2: you know, lost to in the playoffs last year. The

96
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: Texans were a playoff team in the AFC. Obviously, the

97
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: the the stort Liners made the Final four. Yeah, made

98
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: the made it to the final four. So again you

99
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 2: want to you want to consider yourself among those teams.

100
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 2: You got to play them, and uh, you.

101
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 3: Know, and those teams handle themselves differently they do. The

102
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 3: Bills have been awfully close, you know, and a lot

103
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 3: of and if you know, if it wasn't for my

104
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 3: homes or or a bounce here and there, and maybe

105
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 3: they would have their first you know, uh ring with

106
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 3: with Josh Allen at the quarterback hell, but they've been

107
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 3: one of the most successful teams in the league, but

108
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 3: knocking for a while now, yeah, good five years, which

109
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 3: is a long stretch. They look a little different, but

110
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: I'm sure in their building they look at themselves like

111
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 3: a championship contender. I don't know how on earth Detroit

112
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: can't think that way, you know, they definitely, Yeah, just

113
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 3: you know, look at what the moves that they made,

114
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 3: the move offseason as far as they went last year,

115
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 3: the style of their head coach, and I think Houston

116
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 3: is quickly realizing what that world's all about.

117
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 4: You know.

118
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, Bob Labriola just stopped in here and I always

119
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 3: think about him when they when those teams go from

120
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 3: you know a year ago was like, well the Texans

121
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 3: win five games, and now it's like, could the Texans

122
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl? Like that's a crazy jump. That's

123
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 3: a big year within the building. And you know, I

124
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 3: mentioned Labs because the one year we were talking about

125
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 3: the Browns and he's like, let's see what they have

126
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 3: to do when they have a road game after a

127
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 3: Monday nighter. You know, like there's more demand when everybody

128
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 3: wants to see you and you've you know, a bullet

129
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 3: a target on your back.

130
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're lining up here for a little while. Goal

131
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 2: line drill here got the beef. There's not even a

132
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: wide receiver in the game here, no.

133
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 3: Full back of course, fullback will stick his face in there.

134
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 4: He did.

135
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 2: Nausea. Harris so stuffed for no or not najy Harris.

136
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 2: Jaleen Warren's stuff for no gain there on that first

137
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 2: first run. Now in nause you'll get a chance again

138
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 2: with the fullback in there. Jack Kleto is getting a

139
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 2: lot of run today.

140
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he really is. I mean some of these days

141
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 3: without pads you don't see him hardly at all. But

142
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,599
Speaker 3: padded days, he's out there a lot. Yeah, you know, folks,

143
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 3: I mean he's going to be part of the mix.

144
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, whin up. This is a pure power eye here.

145
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 2: Lots of beef on the field. Wonder if Harris tries

146
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 2: to go over the top row here out of that

147
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 2: and uh he would have been under pressure. But yeah,

148
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: and incompletibly well played down by the defense. Yeah, that

149
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: was an actual attempted pass to Kletto there in the

150
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 2: front corner of the end zone. But trying to see

151
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 2: how many dbs they have on the field, I think

152
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 2: three against such a big package. Yeah, I mean it's

153
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: one of a huge package. Yeah, one of them's Meca

154
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 2: to not even landon Roberts is out there. I thought

155
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: he might haven't seen a lot of him today We

156
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 2: have not seen Queen, but Roberts is out there with

157
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 2: a big front. To not have any wide receivers on

158
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 2: the field, It's like, yeah, yeah, you rarely see that.

159
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 3: In the NFL. Usually you just at least put pickings

160
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 3: outside the numbers because somebody has.

161
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 2: To go with are Naji Hears goes over the top

162
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 2: to get in leading forty five? Let him into the

163
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: end zone there the full back Coleto, I mean.

164
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 3: Real quick on. I've always thought this, and part of

165
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 3: it just goes back to my pit roots when you

166
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 3: had Larry Fitzgerald, Like why would you ever take him

167
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 3: off the field in any situation because at a minimum

168
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: he blocks his guy, you know, take him out of

169
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 3: the equation on short yard and stuff, And if you're

170
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 3: even that good, you better have somebody at least help

171
00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 3: him with a quick slant or you know, helping that

172
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 3: corner one on one.

173
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 5: Here.

174
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 2: Now they spread it out, even though it's it's still

175
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: all big person. You got, yeah, you got three tight

176
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 2: ends you do have a wide receiver on the field there,

177
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 2: that's Jefferson and then Jaylen Warren split split out wide.

178
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 3: This is a particularly appealing with fields because he's such

179
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: a good runner. Your threat of run is no less

180
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 3: than it used to be. He gets feed in, No,

181
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 3: he did not. Okay, I'm say he's a well thrown ball,

182
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 3: but a little far, yeah, just.

183
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 2: A little outside there for Connor Hayward and he couldn't

184
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 2: get the second foot down.

185
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 3: I like the timing and touch of the Fields throw there,

186
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: but I mean it, Fields is your quarterback and you

187
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 3: go empty. You better not think that, oh, this is

188
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 3: a pass, right, Yeah. If it's Matthew Stafford, you're like,

189
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 3: oh it's a pass, you know. Yeah, But that Fields

190
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 3: package out of empty, especially if you're a big personnel

191
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 3: on the field and you spread him out, there's gonna

192
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 3: be a lot of slower bodies trying to deal.

193
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 6: With him, you know. Yeah.

194
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 2: Now you have Kyle Allen in there again with the

195
00:08:55,440 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 2: fullback and uh a running back here in the I formation.

196
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 2: Imagine being the only fullback on the team, though, Like,

197
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 2: you get a lot of work, a lot of work,

198
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 2: and these these kind of practices they must be conscious

199
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 2: of saving him. Like yesterday, he didn't do a whole lot,

200
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: but I'm sure he still broke a pretty good sweat,

201
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 2: you know. I mean, what you're doing nothing, you know,

202
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 2: but like every fullback snap is you, you know, and

203
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 2: it has to be sort of reassuring in that, Hey,

204
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 2: I'm not competing with anybody, I mean other than Boswell

205
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: and the long snapper.

206
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 3: Who else isn't competing with anybody?

207
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 2: But you're you're you're competing, but you better not get hurt.

208
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 2: But you're also competing while you don't have anybody else

209
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 2: at your position. Naturally, you're competing against the tight ends.

210
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 2: You're competing for a roster spot as a special teams guy.

211
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's kind of as I say too, is

212
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 3: I think you're competing to prove that a fullback is needed. Yes,

213
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 3: it's necessary that you better be a better team with

214
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: a fullback, even if it isn't me, you know, But

215
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,839
Speaker 3: I mean this is a valuable portion. And I think

216
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 3: he's doing that because he he routinely does his job.

217
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, that was bad.

218
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little interception there by Kyle Allen.

219
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: Allen was real lack of days ago with that throw

220
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 3: and picked off by twenty nine.

221
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that h not a good throw. That's Ryan Wats

222
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 2: with the interception there, so making a play, but that

223
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 2: was an easy one.

224
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 3: That was an easy one. Yeah, Wats is one of

225
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 3: the guys I'm most excited to watch too, and I

226
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 3: think there's ability there. I'm expecting mistakes. I'm talking about games. Yeah,

227
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 3: but I mean expecting mistakes. I'm not expecting him to

228
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 3: be a huge contributor this year. But he doesn't lack

229
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 3: for size, speed, you know. I mean he's got traits.

230
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,199
Speaker 3: You know, there's definitely traits there for sure. Was that

231
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 3: going to do it?

232
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 2: Is that a rap? Are they're switching things back up there?

233
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 3: I don't think it's a rap. I'm not sure why.

234
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 2: They looks like they're switching out and putting the first

235
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 2: unit back in here. They want to see something. Maybe

236
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 2: this is a last rep for all the marbles or something.

237
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 6: Maybe.

238
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're definitely definitely gone ones on ones here everybody

239
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: else they were, all the twos were all lined up

240
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 2: together ready to go, and then all of a sudden

241
00:10:58,960 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 2: they switched it back out here.

242
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 3: I assume Tom And pulled them all off. Yeah, so.

243
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 2: Maybe he wants to see the offense. You guys got

244
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 2: to run the football into the end zone here because

245
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 2: the defense is shutting you down here once. Yeah, aniki

246
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 2: backfield again here with all the beef out there. You

247
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 2: get a full back out there. You do have one

248
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: wide receiver bringing it in tight with the full back

249
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 2: of the eye. Now they're going I with one receiver

250
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 2: out split out wide and little motion are by the receiver.

251
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 4: In that time.

252
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: Jane Warren got in following the following the full back,

253
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 2: and that's gonna do it.

254
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 3: Just so power football, big people football, you know.

255
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: Physical, establishing a mindset, yep. I mean it's not oh

256
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 2: here comes. I mean like in that play, the receiver

257
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 2: went in motion and was at full speed at the snap,

258
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 2: but you're not seeing the the end around the game

259
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: type of thing either. I mean, when the motion brings

260
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 2: people out and is read. I'm sure that there will

261
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 2: be some handoffs to wide receivers, especially maybe when Patterson's

262
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 2: out there.

263
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 3: But it's not finesse stuff in that that situation. No,

264
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 3: that was pure power. It's not calvinoff and getting the

265
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,079
Speaker 3: ball did one.

266
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, pure power there and again establishing that mindset that

267
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 2: you're gonna be a tough minded team. I think that's

268
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 2: a big Arthur Smith thing.

269
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 3: Absolutely. I think it's how you win in the AFC

270
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,199
Speaker 3: North too. I mean, especially late in the season, and

271
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 3: all those games against the North opponents are late, as

272
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,439
Speaker 3: we know, they're all gonna be physical, and you know

273
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 3: you're gonna be banged up, and you're not gonna have

274
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 3: every one of these at your disposal, everyone of these

275
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 3: players at your disposal near the Browns, Bengals or Ravens

276
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 3: for that matter, and you know who can who can

277
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 3: we count on, and who's going to be, you know,

278
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 3: be the hammer and so of the nail.

279
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, another good practice in the book. It was here

280
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 2: for the Steelers and they'll get a day much needed

281
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 2: day off tomorrow, so no, uh, no training camp practices tomorrow.

282
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 2: They'll be back Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Thursday is the interesting one.

283
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: They play Friday. Yeah, Thursday's practice usually is a way

284
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 2: before the day before the day before games, typically a

285
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 2: walk through, but this year there it's going to be

286
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 2: an open practice, so there'll be fans here and we'll

287
00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 2: be doing our thing, and I imagine it's not gonna

288
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: be hanging like this, but they are going to get

289
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 2: some stuff done. Yeah, absolutely, so.

290
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,679
Speaker 3: Maybe Russell Wilson practice is more in that one.

291
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 2: And then see, the expectation for me is that he

292
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 2: comes back in practices after this day off. Yeah, he's

293
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: done more and more and more every day. Do you

294
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 2: think on Tuesday he starts acting as the one? I

295
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: think so as the true one. I mean, if he doesn't,

296
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be alarmed or care for that matter.

297
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: But I could see that being a good line of

298
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 2: demarcation where you're the guy now and justin You've got

299
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 2: a lot of work and good stuff with it, because

300
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 2: you know, when you look at it, really, you know,

301
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 2: once they get out of that first game, and then

302
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: after that you're looking at of course they play Friday

303
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 2: and then they play the following Saturday, so.

304
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 3: You know there'll be the Bills practice in between.

305
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 2: You get the Bills practice in there in between, so

306
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 2: you want to get him start ramped up so he

307
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:52,679
Speaker 2: can actually play in that game against.

308
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 3: The Bills, I would think, and certainly practice hard against

309
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 3: the Bills too. I mean, I think that will be

310
00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 3: part of it. You would think the final preseason game

311
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 3: will be no Wilson, no Hayward, no watt et cetera.

312
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 3: But who knows. I mean everyone handles that a little

313
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 3: different thing.

314
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you do you play that in August

315
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 2: twenty fourth, and you don't play a real game to

316
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 2: open the season until September eighth.

317
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got a nice break. Yeah again, I never

318
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 3: quite know what teams are going to do with the

319
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: three preseason games, and I do think some coaches play

320
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 3: it by year. Do we need it or not?

321
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's I think that's a big part

322
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 2: of it now because there is no set way they'll

323
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: do it.

324
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

325
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we've seen teams not play anybody in

326
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 2: the past and then you know, the next year they

327
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 2: play guys in the pre like there's just no rhyme

328
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 2: or reason to it necessarily, and the Ravens are out

329
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: to win every preseason game for whatever reason, and you know,

330
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: just have one handles it differently. Yeah, yeah, for sure.

331
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 2: Let's get to another break. Steelers just wrapping up their

332
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 2: practice here at Saint Vincent College and starting to break

333
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 2: down to do some individual work here after practice. But

334
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: he is Matt Williamson. I am Dale Lolly. You're listening

335
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 2: to the drive here on Steelers Nation Radio. We are

336
00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 2: live from Steelers training camp practice here and well we're

337
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 2: also being simulcast on Fox Sports Pittsburgh if you're listening

338
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 2: to us there, that's what this is. But Matt and

339
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 2: now I will be back with more right after this.

340
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: This is The Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson

341
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: on your twenty four to seven home of the Black

342
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

343
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 2: Welcome back. I am Dale Lolly here with Matt Williams,

344
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,960
Speaker 2: and we are live from Steelers training camp here at

345
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 2: Saint Vincent College where the Steelers just wrapped up their

346
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 2: practice here today. And Matt, we're talking about that schedule

347
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 2: a little bit in the previous segment there, in the

348
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 2: preseason schedule in particular, but I'm looking here at the

349
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 2: regular season schedule. Yeah, and I know you open on

350
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 2: the road with two of your first two games on

351
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 2: the road. You do at Atlanta at Denver and then

352
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 2: the Chargers at home. But honestly, that's not so bad.

353
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 3: I always hate Denver early, but they don't look like

354
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 3: a good team.

355
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 2: Like, Yeah, I don't. I don't think they're gonna be

356
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 2: a good football teams And.

357
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 3: I hadn't thought of it until you just brought up

358
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 3: now though, But that's three quarterback situations that are a

359
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 3: little hairy right now. That that Herbert injury to me

360
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 3: could absolutely still be in play at that game, and

361
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 3: it's a home opener. Is Nick's going to start for Denver?

362
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 3: And if he does, he's only had one start in

363
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: his life at that point. And Cousins probably won't play

364
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 3: in the preseason at all.

365
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's already said he's not going to play in

366
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 2: the preseason, you know, at all. So you're gonna get

367
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 2: a quarterback who hasn't thrown a pass in the NFL

368
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 2: and nearly a year. Yeah, yeah, on a new team,

369
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 2: on a new team with a new head coach, with

370
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 2: the new system, you know, the whole deal.

371
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 3: The quarterback stuff's a little harry for those three. Yeah.

372
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 2: Then you get the Broncos, who have a presumably a

373
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 2: new quarterback or.

374
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 3: It's Stidham if it's not, Yeah, you're not too upset about.

375
00:16:58,240 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 2: And then you get the Chargers at home. And I

376
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 2: don't think either one of us think the Chargers are

377
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 2: going to be a good football team.

378
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 3: I don't. I mean, I think this Herbert injury is

379
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 3: a big deal for that. So I heard today that

380
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 3: Javonte Williams might not even make the Broncos rosters. I mean,

381
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 3: like that he's fallen out.

382
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 2: Of favor or could get traded or Peyton just wants

383
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 2: to clear everybody out. The feeling I'm getting like he's

384
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 2: just it doesn't matter who you are, He's going to

385
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 2: be his guys or the highway type of thing, which

386
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 2: is going to make for a tough couple of years.

387
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 2: And there aren't many.

388
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 3: Rosters I would put below Denvers, just top to bottom

389
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 3: right now. It's not a great group. I don't know

390
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 3: what their strengths are.

391
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 2: Then you head to Indianapolis to play the Colts. A

392
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,639
Speaker 2: quick question for you, Yeah, do you think Opening Day

393
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 2: in Atlanta will be a lot of black and gold? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,

394
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,719
Speaker 2: Although I did hear that the Falcons have sold out

395
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 2: their season tickets this year for the first time, and I.

396
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 3: Bet there's war buzz. I mean, if I'm the Falcons fans,

397
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 3: they're aggressive, and I mean there's a lot of change.

398
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 2: At the same time, you know that's not been a

399
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 2: team that's been good, No, no, no, And so I

400
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 2: do think there'll be a healthy number of Steeler fans there,

401
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 2: for sure.

402
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 3: I would think that on the road trip you could

403
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 3: easily make.

404
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 2: I would think there'll be a lot of Steeler fans

405
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: in Denver, I would think so.

406
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 3: I mean, I would think Denver fans are not.

407
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 2: As many as I think will be in Las Vegas

408
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 2: for that Raiders game on October thirteenth, but certainly you'll

409
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 2: be a well attended Denver's one that's easy to get to.

410
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,600
Speaker 3: And then you were getting to what Indian week four. Yeah,

411
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 3: I think that's also a trip some will make. But

412
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 3: that's going to be you know, the Colts off homefield.

413
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 2: Avand but that's definitely a winnable game as well, I

414
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 2: would think so, yeah, I would think so. Then you

415
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 2: get the Cowboys at home, the Raiders on the road,

416
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 2: the Jets at home.

417
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's just because they're on the roster

418
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 3: and it looks like or on the schedule and it

419
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 3: looks like a tough game. I think this could be

420
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: a down year for Dallas. I mean a lot of

421
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 3: change on the O line, all these contract stuff's getting goofy.

422
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna have much of a running

423
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 3: game whatsoever. They're still really dangerous, don't get me wrong.

424
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 3: I mean, they got big time players and it's a

425
00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 3: big time organization. I get that, but I'm might not

426
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 3: pick them to win the I definitely not gonna pick

427
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 3: them to win the East.

428
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: It's also a night game in Pittsburgh exactly.

429
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 3: And Cowboys or you know, Steelers storied organizations. I'm not

430
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 3: sure I'm gonna pick the Cowboys to go to the

431
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 3: playoffs if they were in the AFC, I would not.

432
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 2: It would not, yeah for sure. Uh but I look

433
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 2: at the schedule. You know, you come out of that game,

434
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: you play the Raiders out there, then you get the

435
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 2: Jets at home, then you get the Giants at home,

436
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 2: then you're in Washington. This is the schedule sets up. Well,

437
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,199
Speaker 2: I've heard people talk about, well, you know, if if

438
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 2: the Steelers stumble out of the gate, could Russell Wilson

439
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 2: not be the quarterback? I don't know if you can

440
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,479
Speaker 2: stumble out of the gate with that, with that schedule

441
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 2: like that, I think he always can. Well, I mean,

442
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 2: things go badly, but but I mean I would be

443
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 2: shocked if they have a that's your first nine games record?

444
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 3: After nine games, yeah, your.

445
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 2: First nine games, you play the Falcons, Broncos, Chargers, Colts, Cowboys, Raiders, Jets, Giants,

446
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 2: and Commanders.

447
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 3: It's interesting the more we think through it, in the

448
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 3: closer we get to the season with more information those

449
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 3: nine opponents, I think it's pretty easy to say today

450
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 3: who the quarterbacks are going to be. But we just

451
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 3: went through the first three and anybody can get hurt.

452
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 3: But Richardson and Rogers are about as fragile to me

453
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 3: as you get Daniel Jones going to be the starter

454
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 3: or not, you know, Like, I just think there's a

455
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 3: lot of room for air, even Jaylen Daniels, like other

456
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 3: than Dak, I'm not certain who's definitely going to be

457
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 3: the guy, you know what I mean? Like those nine quarterbacks,

458
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,719
Speaker 3: you face, there's room for change, or more so than

459
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 3: most teams as all. Well, let's look at it from

460
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 3: that perspect quarterbacks get hurt this year. We've done this

461
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 3: in the past.

462
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, you would give the Falcons an edge at quarterback,

463
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,959
Speaker 2: assuming Cousins as cousins, Assuming Cousins as cousins, but Cousins

464
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 2: not having played in forever. I don't know that. I mean,

465
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 2: that's a good time to get them, that's a great

466
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,119
Speaker 2: time to get him. I still might give Atlanta a

467
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 2: slight advantage there, but it wouldn't be It's not as

468
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 2: the advantage that I would give Atlanta if they played

469
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 2: them in Week five and he was rolling along and

470
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 2: he was you know, he had full you know, they'll

471
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 2: definitely have an advantage over the Broncos.

472
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 3: Yes, agree, And the steel quarterback might have a little

473
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 3: something up his sleeve for that one, might have.

474
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, might have a little something there. Yeah, that Chargers game, he'll.

475
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 3: Be received in Denver probably not great.

476
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 2: He didn't do anything wrong though, I know.

477
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 3: I mean, like I'm just trying to think of it

478
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 3: as a Steeler perspective, like he get booed because he

479
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 3: used to be a Bronco and didn't work out because

480
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 3: of the trade. I don't I don't know how that

481
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 3: would be handled.

482
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 2: I would more boot Peyton for not using him correctly,

483
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 2: But that's not that's just me front office or you know.

484
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 2: I mean, you get the you get the Chargers, the

485
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 2: agit quarterback. But again, with Herbert's foot injury, we don't know.

486
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 5: Oh.

487
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 3: I think he'll be compromised well into the season. But

488
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 3: he's still a really good player, of course.

489
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 2: But the skill position players are around him are bad, bad,

490
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 2: bad bad right, Uh, Steelers versus.

491
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,640
Speaker 3: Colts, no idea, Yeah, no idea. I mean in terms

492
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 3: of playmakers, I would say Richard but in terms of

493
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 3: consistency and counting on him, clearly Wilson.

494
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, obviously you're going to give the Cowboys the Edgit quarterback.

495
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

496
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 2: In that game, Steelers Raiders, it's the Steelers.

497
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 3: I think the Raiders don't get the edge against anybody,

498
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 3: give or take. Yeah, and I'm not even sure I

499
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 3: think Minshew starts for them, but how bad it could

500
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 3: go bad quick for that team? And then what do

501
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 3: you have? I mean, it's probably too early in the

502
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 3: season for just a flat out quarterback change. But I

503
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 3: don't know that Minshew, even if he's the best guy,

504
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 3: is the one starting at the end of the season.

505
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

506
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 3: It just doesn't give you enough information.

507
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 2: Right, Steelers Jets are going to give the edge to Rogers, yea,

508
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 2: assuming he's healthy and you know, playing well at that point.

509
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 2: Steelers Giants, the Steelers, Steelers, Steelers Commanders, who knows.

510
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 3: I mean, it's like Richardson, but certainly in.

511
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 2: Terms of in terms of actually playing the position of quarterback,

512
00:22:58,600 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 2: it's the Steelers.

513
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 3: Rookie quarterbacks struggle I mean it blows me away every

514
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 3: year when prediction time or analyzing teams.

515
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 2: People are talking about the Bears, like the Bears are

516
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 2: gonna win ten games this year because Caleb Caleb Williams

517
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: could be one of the best rookie starting quarterbacks or

518
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 2: it could be one of the greatest quarterbacks in the

519
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 2: history of the game. I'm not saying he's going to be, right,

520
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 2: but history shows us most of those guys struggle.

521
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 3: Almost all Yeah, I mean what Stroud did was remarkable,

522
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:34,479
Speaker 3: and almost all rookie starters struggle. I mean, frankly, if

523
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 3: you were if we're talking Bears right now and I

524
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,719
Speaker 3: said Caleb Williams is gonna be the twentieth best quarterback

525
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 3: in the league in twenty.

526
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: Twelve, they should take it.

527
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 3: They should take it. They should absolutely take it because

528
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 3: history shows he probably won't be. Doesn't mean he can't

529
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 3: be tenth two years from now or whatever. But it's

530
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 3: really really hard to be a rookie.

531
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 2: La Pat Manny through twenty eight interceptions is rookie year.

532
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, So how many rookie quarterbacks do they have there

533
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 3: in that first group? I mean, I'm gonna call Richardson

534
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 3: a rookie by the way.

535
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I played four games at least he's been in

536
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 2: the building and done some of that other stuff. But

537
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 2: I expect his season to be more rookie ish than

538
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: second year ish, probably Nicks, Nicks, probably Daniels.

539
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's an advantage. I mean it. Coaches hate playing rookies,

540
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 3: they hate playing rookie quarterbacks. Yeah, unless you just kind

541
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 3: of don't have high expectations.

542
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 2: Ravens versus Steelers, then coming out of that game against Commanders,

543
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 2: you obviously give the Ravens. He has your quarterback. Oh yeah, Steelers, Browns.

544
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 3: Same. I think I'd take Wilson.

545
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 2: I think I would too.

546
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it might be very obvious at that

547
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 3: point of the season of one or the other. I

548
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 3: bet it will be, because I bet the chances of

549
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,879
Speaker 3: both those guys rejuvenating their career and going back to

550
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 3: being stars as slim. But I don't have any faith

551
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 3: in Watson none. I mean really none.

552
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 2: I mean it's hard to say this, but of all

553
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 2: the stuff off the field and whatnot, I think that

554
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 2: affects you a great deal too, you know, like just

555
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,159
Speaker 2: the time spent your priorities and new time, you know,

556
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 2: all this guaranteed money. I'm not saying he's dogging it,

557
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 2: but it just seems like it's easy for him to

558
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 2: not make it priority number one and live and breathe football.

559
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 2: You know, it really is difficult. Steelers Bengals. Obviously that

560
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 2: you give the edge of the Bengals, then you get

561
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 2: the Browns again, same deal obviously, Steelers, Eagles, Eagles, Steelers,

562
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 2: Ravens Chief Steelers. The second half of the schedule, I

563
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 2: get it. It's difficult, no question. The first half though.

564
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 2: You play just a lot of room for air in

565
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 2: that first You play nine games in that first half.

566
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 2: They're leading up to that game with the Commanders. Could

567
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 2: they be seven and two?

568
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 3: I'll say, if you have a strong level of consistency

569
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 3: and you don't have to be spectacular, I think you

570
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 3: could win a lot of those games. Yeah, yeah, maybe

571
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 3: even seven of them. Yeah.

572
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: So I mean, if you're seven and two heading into

573
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 2: that late stretch, if you're gonna turn the ball over

574
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 2: a lot, you're not doing rookie stuff.

575
00:25:58,560 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 3: Yeah.

576
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 2: History has shown us that they will win probably half

577
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 2: of their AFC North games. I would think, so there's

578
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 2: ten right there. Yeah, and you can't do the Cardinals

579
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 2: Patriot move, you know, and flip up on a bad one.

580
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 2: But I think because of the way the schedule sets up,

581
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 2: but they're gonna steal one two. Yeah, you're not gonna

582
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 2: you know that going into this. You can't have a

583
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 2: letdown like that. And I think, you know, part of

584
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: the letdown in those games was because of the quarterback play,

585
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 2: a lot of it. I mean Mitch Trubisky started one

586
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 2: of those games.

587
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And not only do you play in

588
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 3: lesser quarterbacks, but then you just have to call everything

589
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 3: different than you know. I mean, it's such a ripple effect,

590
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 3: as most people know. I mean, you can't go into

591
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 3: the game with Duc the same way you did Ben.

592
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

593
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 2: I mean that's one of the things people forget. In

594
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 2: that game against the Cardinals, pick it got hurt, so

595
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 2: you had you had to go to Trubisky. Then you

596
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 2: started Trubisky the next week and lost shortly yeah yeah,

597
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 2: and lost to the Patriots. You know, if they had

598
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: made a different move, if they if they had gone

599
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 2: to Mason run different. I mean, it might have been

600
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 2: different if Rudolph happened to be the two, and maybe

601
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 2: they win both of them. And I don't blame them

602
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 2: for using Trubisky as the two. No, no, no, I mean,

603
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 2: but it's hindsight now we know that that was Yeah,

604
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 2: we knew now that maybe that wasn't the case.

605
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 3: The offense with Trubisky compared to Rudolph was night and day.

606
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that results and wins and losses, of course, absolutely.

607
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 2: So it's it's just interesting to uh to look at

608
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 2: the schedule from from that perspective on in terms of

609
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 2: the quarterback play. And I liked the early part of

610
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 2: the schedule. I'm warm enough to it too. I mean,

611
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 2: I don't think the Chargers are particularly good. I really

612
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: think Denver. I think people are way overestimating the Chargers. Frankly,

613
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 2: that whole division, besides the Chiefs, to be is very

614
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 2: very winnable. I think all those teams could have long seasons. Yeah,

615
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 2: and you know, even that game against the Colts. I

616
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 2: know you went out there and lost last year, but again,

617
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 2: different quarterbacks. Again, if you get average quarterback play average, what's.

618
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 3: The line in that game? If they played it week one,

619
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 3: pick them Colt by one. Colts are probably favored in

620
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 3: their building. But yeah, but I mean it's a close one.

621
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 3: I think it's under a field goal for sure.

622
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they did go out there two years

623
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 2: ago in one.

624
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 3: They're They're not a powerhouse for sure.

625
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 2: No, I mean these are definitely winnable games. But yeah,

626
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: you know, until you really you know that game against

627
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: against the Cowboys. I think the Cowboys are favored right

628
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 2: now over the Steelers. I don't know that that'll be

629
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 2: the case when we get to October sixth. Yeah, who's

630
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 2: to say, but I mean I understand why they would

631
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 2: be right now. Yeah, and then you get the Raiders

632
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 2: and Jets, and you know who's going to be playing

633
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 2: for the Jets on October twentieth.

634
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 3: A couple of those games, maybe Jets Chargers could be

635
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 3: grinded out, you know, defense type of thing. I don't

636
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 3: know if the Chargers have the defense to.

637
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 2: Do that, but I don't know if they do either.

638
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 2: The running game again, I like the fact that that

639
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 2: that game is a night game against the Jets at

640
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 2: Akrosure Stadium.

641
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 3: How many games are there? Again?

642
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 2: Four they play?

643
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 4: Uh four or five?

644
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 2: The Cowboys game, the Jets game, then you get the

645
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 2: Giants game is a night game. Yeah, the Browns game

646
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 2: in Cleveland.

647
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 3: Is a night game. And one more and that is

648
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 3: it okay?

649
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 2: The other ones are four thirty at one o'clock or

650
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 2: four thirty, but they have very good with a nice

651
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 2: track record at home, especially at home in those night games.

652
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 3: Three of the four at home, right, Yeah, yeah, I

653
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 3: mean that's another trend that I don't think is an accident.

654
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 2: So I know people are looking at this, and you know,

655
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 2: this could be the year Tomlin has a losing season.

656
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 2: I don't know about that. Certainly could be, Oh there's

657
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: any season, could be if things go wrong. There's no

658
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 2: doubt about that.

659
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,719
Speaker 3: The Chiefs could win five games this year. I mean,

660
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 3: it's weird. Stuff happens, and no one ever thinks of that.

661
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 2: I just think this this, I think this rosters is

662
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 2: just overall too and and I like what I've seen

663
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 2: from fields over.

664
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 3: The last week. I think the roster's well insulated too.

665
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 3: Like Gon to be terrible, t jmis Time or Cam

666
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 3: or whomever, but I think he doesn't destroy your season.

667
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 2: That happened last year though.

668
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

669
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: They played a bunch of games without Teach, without without

670
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 2: Cam Heyward, without Mika Fitzpatrick, without Deontay Johnson, without Pat Fryarmouth.

671
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 3: Yep, and they were still able to win games still

672
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 3: over to edge them out and get howd to get

673
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 3: out of that with a victory.

674
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 2: Well, they think this team just knows how to win

675
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 2: those kind of games, and the roster knows how to

676
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: win those, and I think the head coach knows how

677
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 2: to win those kind of games.

678
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 3: I also think the new quarterback those two. Yeah, he

679
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 3: has a pretty good history. We always talk about the

680
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 3: code or you know teams that are really good in

681
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 3: one score games. Well, Wilson in his time with Carrol

682
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 3: was one of them.

683
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, without question, and that was not an accident.

684
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 4: No.

685
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 3: I mean Tomlin's like the best at it, but Wilson

686
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 3: is also a contributor in his own right before he

687
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 3: got here in those games.

688
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's get to a break.

689
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:49,480

859
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 7: Was last night as spicy as you've maybe seen some

860
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 7: of those one on ones.

861
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 6: Get It was mean, It was very feisty, but you know,

862
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 6: it makes us better.

863
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 9: Competition makes us better, and that's one thing coach t

864
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 9: Uh just love loves to see let's see us getting

865
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 9: after it and let's see the competition and so uh

866
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 9: ultimately it's iron on iron and it just makes us better.

867
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 9: But you know, it definitely got fisy last night and

868
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 9: it was it was it was cool.

869
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 2: See how has campaign for you personally?

870
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 4: Just as a whole.

871
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean I thought he's been a good camp

872
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 9: so far. Feeling good, you know, going to year five

873
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 9: now it's pretty it's played every year. Every year, it's

874
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 9: black faster and faster, and so body feels well, and

875
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,399
Speaker 9: so you know, I just think it's been a good cancel.

876
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 6: Part just gotta keep hip to say.

877
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 7: How much of that chippiness last night is trickled down

878
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 7: from Mike and the serpent that he likes to do

879
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 7: when you guys carry your paths as he likes to.

880
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I mean that's just a jill. You

881
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 9: know that that gets chippy because it's it's one on

882
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 9: one and you know, it's it's it's about it's the

883
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 9: backs on back, it's about getting past the guy that

884
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 9: you're going against and getting to the quarterback. And so

885
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 9: I think he gets chippy just because of the nature

886
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,000
Speaker 9: of the drill. But everything we do is about competition.

887
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 9: That's something that you know, he wants us to be

888
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 9: competitors because ultimately this this game is the biggest competitors league,

889
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 9: and so he just wants to wants us during this

890
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:34,759
Speaker 9: training camp time to.

891
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 7: Be able to to build that in this Did he

892
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 7: say anything to you guys before that or was it

893
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 7: just kind of happened naturally.

894
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 9: This happens natural, man. You know, football is an emotional game,

895
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 9: you know, and so you know, things happened at times,

896
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 9: but you know, like I said, it just makes us better.

897
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:48,680
Speaker 2: You are now seem to have a bit of a

898
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 2: rivalry going on right now.

899
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 6: How has he improved from last year as a blocker?

900
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 2: But you guys matched up all the time.

901
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean he's he's definitely shown a lot of improvement.

902
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 9: You know, he's gonna be you know, huge for us

903
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 9: this year when it comes to go for attack blocking

904
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 9: in the run game and also making you know, catches,

905
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 9: uh you know, in the red zone, just whirl in

906
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 9: the field. But you know, he's he's the guy that's

907
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 9: gonna be huge force. And so it's been awesome be

908
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 9: able to go against him. Uh see him getting better

909
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 9: and better every day.

910
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 10: How do you look in you better as a competitor

911
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 10: with the things that you're able to learn from.

912
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 2: You Uh A uniquely tall guy.

913
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean he he's a he's a big tie

914
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 9: end when the big probably one of the biggest in

915
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 9: the league. So going against him, you know, helps me

916
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 9: cause he I be I'm able to work you know,

917
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 9: power moves against him and stuff like that. And so

918
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 9: being on the road against guys like that. Just like

919
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,000

Speaker 6: Likes some of that thinks should be this maybe a

932
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 6: little extra intense fee that you're seeing.

933
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 9: Him from the offense this year. I mean, I think

934
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 9: just overall, it's just going back to the competition park.

935
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 9: You know, it's it's it's a emotional games.

936
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 6: So just having those drills well just.

937
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 9: You know, it bring us out that it brings out

938
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 9: the emotion and emotions in all of us, and it

939
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 9: brings out that the competitor nature and all of us.

940
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 9: And so that's what that's what that's that's what why

941
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 9: Mike t has us doing those drills. Uh, it's because

942
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 9: of you know, to bring out the competit the nature

943
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 9: within us.

944
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 7: What have you learned from just defence as a whole

945
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 7: wider You guys were six best in scoring.

946
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 2: Is there other areas of the dessications that they how

947
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,360
Speaker 2: to drive forward and you.

948
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 5: Know more about people all them?

949
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, you know, we wanna be the best

950
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,359
Speaker 9: in every area or so whatever areas that we work

951
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:31,800
Speaker 9: about the best.

952
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:33,399
Speaker 6: Team, we were opportune to get bit in that area.

953
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 6: So I think for us it's just about you know,

954
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 6: being being physical or playing.

955
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,879
Speaker 9: Fast, playing smart, having good communication and just just being

956
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:43,840
Speaker 9: or being consistent, you know. I think that's one thing

957
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 9: that we can take us best that for this being

958
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 9: more consisted this year. So that's like where we'll go

959
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 9: so far as.

960
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 6: To Pops, what have been the things for you can

00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 7: us a couple of times and where where else do

964
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 7: you improve heading into this year?

965
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah?

966
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 9: You know, for me, just you know, being more consistent,

967
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:58,839
Speaker 9: you know with my production, I feel like and also

968
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 9: just continue to get better just throughout this camp and

969
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,440

970
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 9: for me coming to year five now, I feel like

971
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 9: I'm more of a leader now, So I just continue

972
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,959
Speaker 9: to use my voice. I'm going to help these younger

973

00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 9: to improve on during the off season that's about like

1015
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 9: adding maybe another little team red a foar or is

1018
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 9: and having a couple, but more it's just fine tuning.

1019

Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I know it's something you know. For me,

1024
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 6: it's like you know avowics. You know, for I must

1025
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 6: have been with a lot of guys and so.

1026
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 9: I see different type of asing that different ways, and

1027
00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,279

1028
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 6: That guy is so but also just too far the us.

1029
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 7: That all right, how much as it helped happen to

1030
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 7: show and take you over here his wing, oh he said,

1031
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 7: he basically stayed with him and like before you guys

1032
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 7: drive out here, and he said, you felt like his

1033
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 7: son a little bit.

1034
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,800
Speaker 8: I don't know, I don't know what far now, but

1035
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 8: that's definitely my brother. I mean when I got here

1036
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 8: together in his wing, he helped me. And knowing that

1037
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 8: I play a corner, so you just make sure that

1038
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 8: let me know all the differences at safety and be

1039
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 8: in every separate.

1040
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 3: Way to let me know how to read the game faster.

1041
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 3: What did you started to learn so far? Just about

1042
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,840
Speaker 3: the style of defense the Steelers happened. Maybe that the

1043
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 3: attitude that you guys want to bring in that type

1044
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 3: of the ball.

1045
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, physical man and shoot. People told me before

1046
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:39,760
Speaker 8: it's gonna be one of the hardest training.

1047
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 4: Camps all out.

1048
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,799
Speaker 5: Can't be too harder than college because college they running

1049
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 5: through the dirt.

1050
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 8: But nah, it's hard, and I think that's that's what

1051
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:47,799
Speaker 8: makes a team so good, having that physicality every year

1052
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 8: for fall camp.

1053
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,280
Speaker 4: It brings the best out of you. Do you embrace

1054
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 4: that kind of camp like that?

1055
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, yeah, I think that's the best way to

1056
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,920
Speaker 8: do it, and not having an easy way out or shoots,

1057
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 8: getting the best out of you because you're gonna get

1058
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,240
Speaker 8: the best out of the money over here, they isolate.

1059
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 4: You and then we tackling. Ever, every time we had

1060
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:05,879
Speaker 4: pat On, we taggling, we're going hard over here.

1061
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 2: Tomlin been coaching you pretty hard at the rookie Oh.

1062
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 8: Ye too, Yeah, I mean he got to no changes

1063
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 8: and so he got to be hard on me talking

1064
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 8: help grow.

1065
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 4: They see the best out of him.

1066
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 7: What buttons, does he trying to push with you when

1067
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 7: he's behind you in a driller or in your ear?

1068
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 6: Oh?

1069
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 8: Just being more just being a physical because you know,

1070
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:22,919
Speaker 8: I played a corner and if he thinks you feel

1071
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 8: like some corners might not be physical bumps on showing

1072
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 8: that I.

1073
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 7: Am maybe put getting backs on backers, then if you're

1074
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 7: playing a little too back.

1075
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 2: You have a fair amount of experience playing special teams

1076
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,800
Speaker 2: college level, have you started to, you know, see that

1077
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 2: as a possibility for yourself here so far through camp?

1078
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, most definitely trying to make my way in the

1079

00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,240
Speaker 2: having a great camp this year is de Marvin Leal.

1088
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 3: Pivotal year for him too, and I think he's taking

1089
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 3: the ball and run with it.

1090
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And even we've seen him play a little

1091
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 2: bit outside linebacker as well.

1092
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 3: So what you can do and kick off coverage and

1093
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 3: and so he's getting to me more and more prominent.

1094
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,280
Speaker 2: Absolutely. So let's hear I sat down with de Marvin

1095
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 2: earlier today. Here, let's see what. Let's hear what de

1096
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 2: Marvin had to say. He looks like you've kind of

1097
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 2: transformed your body a little good this year. Would you

1098
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 2: do specifically to make that happen?

1099
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 11: I would just say this fixing eating habits, and just

1100
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:48,919
Speaker 11: working out a little bit more throughout the week.

1101
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 5: Throughout this offseason, you've been very active in practice, getting.

1102
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 2: Your hands off in the passing lanes, chasing balls.

1103
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 6: Down from behind downfield.

1104
00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:58,319
Speaker 2: Man, I saw you think it was the other day,

1105
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 2: twenty yards downfield, sir? Is that something that you wanted

1106
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 2: to emphasize this year?

1107
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:05,879
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, it most definitely just getting after the ball,

1108
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,760
Speaker 11: running through the ball for her, just really just running

1109
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 11: through the ball.

1110
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 2: Is that something you had to learn when you got here?

1111
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 5: Was that something It's.

1112
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 11: Something I've always had, you know what I'm saying. I

1113
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 11: would just say that, you know what I'm saying, Sometimes

1114
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 11: when you're not sure about what exactly is going on,

1115
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 11: or you know what I'm saying, where the ball is at,

1116
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 11: you can't always run to it.

1117
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 4: They've been working you out an outside linebacker a little bit.

1118
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 5: More, sir, how's that been going for you? It's been

1119
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 5: going good.

1120
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 11: Just been learning a little bit more details about what

1121
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 11: it is about being the outside linebacker and you know,

1122
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 11: just getting after it.

1123
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 6: Is that your suggestion or theirs or how did that know?

1124
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,160
Speaker 11: You know, a couple of guys went down. I can

1125
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 11: play inside and out, So that's just how it worked

1126
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:44,680
Speaker 11: out for me.

1127
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 2: How are you feeling the first preseason games a.

1128
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 5: Couple of days away, man, exciting? Yeah there year were go. Yeah.

1129
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you said it's now or.

1130
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 3: Never for you?

1131
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 11: Or do you feel like you got I mean it's

1132
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,759
Speaker 11: now for me. I wouldn't say now or never, just

1133
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 11: as you know what I'm saying this for the season,

1134
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 11: but it's not for me.

1135
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, sweating with the ability to play outside linebackers, I

1136
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:07,880
Speaker 4: can't and.

1137
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 6: Help your person tell each other.

1138
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 11: Yeah, most definitely just being able to show them that

1139
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 11: I can play inside and out, rush inside and out.

1140
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 5: It's just gonna make them, you know what I'm saying,

1141
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 5: have to put me somewhere.

1142
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 7: How's that room as a whole right now?

1143
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 11: All you guys see, man, everybody's competing everybody's working, everybody's

1144
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 11: making their own plays.

1145
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 5: It's it's exciting to see.

1146
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 2: It's we're all competing, like the idea of being out

1147
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:30,760
Speaker 2: there on the kickoff.

1148
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:33,280
Speaker 11: So oh yeah, the way that you've changed the kickoff

1149
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 11: rules have blocked me. You know what I'm saying, big

1150
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 11: body to get it in this inside of kickoff. So

1151
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 11: just waiting to see how that rolls in the real

1152
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 11: life play.

1153
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,839
Speaker 5: Were you able to watch it all in the Nah,

1154
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 5: it was. It was actually pretty interesting, you know.

1155
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 11: It just you know, you watch the usl UFL games

1156
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,320
Speaker 11: and all those guys and how fast everything moves. So

1157
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,799
Speaker 11: it's just exciting the gate after it using you out there,

1158
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:55,800
Speaker 11: uh you know, he just puts me right there in

1159
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 11: the middle of kickoff and teaching me technique. Teach me

1160
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 11: the rules of what I need to do, what not

1161
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 11: to do, the technique of where my foot needs to be,

1162
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:05,160
Speaker 11: how far.

1163
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 5: My body can be all over the line. So Dan's

1164
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 5: really just teasing the ins and outs.

1165
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 2: Do you think it's gonna be weird to be like

1166
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 2: a part of it for the first.

1167
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:12,800
Speaker 1: Time on Friday?

1168
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:15,040

1169
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 5: game we love so you know, just a little adjustment.

1170
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,360
