33
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: I'm excited because I love talking about the renaissance of

34
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: the running backs. We can talk about the top five

35
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 1: running backs hit in the best of our visit with

36
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: the Charges in an f C West preview, and then

37
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: we can go with some rookie reports what we're excited

38
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: to see and we wanted a preseason. Yeah, we're gonna

39
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: jump in there. What's some of the top news. But

40
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 1: before we get to that, I just wanted one question

41
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: for you real quick. What did you do with all

42
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: those Air Jordan's you bought from all those North Carolina

43
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: football players. Have you know what are you doing with?

44
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: So here to great discount I heard on Here's what

45
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: I've learned, and what I've learned because my son is

46
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: a sneaker head, those are some classic shoe and so

47
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: the secondary market, those shoes are going for thousands and

48
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: thousands of bucks because they limited edition. And as my

49
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: son would say, man, you put those things on goat

50
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: on grill, they sell like hot cakes. And so with

51
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: the young guys being sneaker heads, they also know that

52
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: they can kind of flip it in poor lad. Unfortunately

53
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: it's an n C double a violation, you think, But

54
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: when you get those kind of Georgans that are authentic, man,

55
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: it's it's tough to resist to urge. Well, I guess

56
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: it's here a North Carolina football player, you know that

57
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: that professional football money is not out there for you

58
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: in the future, so you better trying to be based

59
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: on how they play. No, it's it's not a lot,

60
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: but maybe just maybe they're trying to help themselves untrodual spirit.

61
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 1: There you go. All right, let's jump into some of

62
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: this lady. The latest news here trade here. I love

63
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: love a good at football trade. It's gonna be fun

64
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: to watch us on hard knocks because Corey Coleman traded

65
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: to the Buffalo Bills. Forget this, it can get it

66
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 1: was seventh round picking. That is free. You just gave

67
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 1: away Corey Coleman here, and this is a player. Let's

68
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: go back to when he was drafted, buck, what was

69
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: our running line on him? He ran slant go post.

70
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: That's that's what he ran. And I'm you know, like, look,

71
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: we're we're a little high on him based on what

72
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 1: he was. He had outstanding speed. He was a big

73
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: time playmaker with the ball in his hands. But we

74
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: have seen the trend from bailor receivers sometimes they have

75
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: a tough time kind of acclimating to the National Football

76
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: League because their system that they played in college was

77
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: kind of such a stand lost system that didn't require

78
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: a lot of discipline. In Corey Coleman's case, he just

79
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: had a tough time being a consistent playmaker. Whenever you

80
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: saw him get opportunities, he couldn't consistently come up with

81
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: the big play. Then you hear some things about might

82
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: not have been the best professional when it came to

83
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: being on time, being detailed, taking care of business, doing

84
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: all the things that you want to see a young

85
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: professional d And so for John Dorsey, that staff, they

86
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: probably grew tired of trying to get him up to speed.

87
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: When you're trying to make a culture change, anyone that's

88
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: not buying in you gotta let him go. They gave

89
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: him away to the Buffalo Bills, and then the Buffalo

90
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: Bills have to see if they can make him into something. Well.

91
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: I understand the statement. You know, this is kind of

92
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: a statement that you've made to the group. If you're,

93
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: you know, not doing things the way we want, you're

94
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: gonna be gone. I just don't like the timing of it.

95
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: Because the seventh round pick twenties nothing. So why would

96
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: you not hold on to him during the preseason. Maybe

97
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: you feature him in a game or two. We know

98
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: one thing he can go. You flip him a couple

99
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: of reverses, you get him a couple of quick screens,

100
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: and maybe he pops a couple. You see some of

101
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 1: that explosive ability that he has. And then you get

102
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: later on into training camp. Teams have injuries, there's sym

103
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: attrician and rosters around the league. The value is not

104
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: going to get worse than a seventh round pick in

105
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: I think you had a chance to maybe get a

106
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: little bit more if you hold on to him a

107
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: little bit longer. But they decided we're not, We're not

108
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: gonna do that. So I just disagree with the timing

109
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: of it. And we mentioned the only the four routes

110
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: team ran coming out of Baylor, there was gonna be

111
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: an adjustment period, man, I just I would I just

112
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: preach patients with guys that have ability, don't quit on talent.

113
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: And I think of Nelson Al Yeah, because Nelson Agar

114
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 1: was a Chip Kelly draft pick. When Howie Roseman then

115
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: got back in control there and you bring over Doug

116
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: Peterson and Aglars. Coming off a game remember against the

117
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: Seahawks and year before he dropped a couple of balls.

118
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: He was being labeled as bust, but they were patient

119
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: with him even though he wasn't quote unquote our guy.

120
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: If you want to hit that back there, I don't

121
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: even know. If you guys have access to there, you go.

122
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 1: Even though it wasn't my GUIDs, not John Dorsey's guy.

123
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: I thought exercising a little more patients would have made

124
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 1: more sense. I think the only thing that may have

125
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: frustrated to Browns. Did you see him changing? Did you

126
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: see his work happ has change. Did he become a

127
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: guy that all of a sudden became punctual. Did he

128
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: appear to take um greater attention to detail and meetings

129
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: and on the practice field, or like some guys do

130
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: as they come into the league. Did he continue to

131
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: carry himself with a sense of entitlement. I'm the number

132
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: one pick, I'm gonna play. I don't need to do

133
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: some of this grind some of this other stuff. And

134
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: they actually did him a favor by letting him go.

135
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: Now they put him in Buffalo where he didn't get

136
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 1: kind of caught up in the dump. They don't have

137
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: a lot in Buffalo either right where everyone is trying

138
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: to dump receivers at the end of the preseason. They

139
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: gave him a legitimate spot where you can go and play.

140
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: And for the Buffalo Bills act to back seasons Kelvin

141
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: Benjamin Corey Coleman, they've been able to pick up two

142
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: number one projects and put it wide receiver. I don't

143
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: know how much that improves their wide receiver corps, but

144
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: we'll see they have two number one I can't think

145
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: of many teams they have two number one products at

146
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: wide receiver. I thought it was a home run deal

147
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: for the Bills. If it doesn't work out, to cost

148
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: them next to nothing. So I thought it was a

149
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: smart move. Look, they only have to guarantee. They only

150
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: own the hood for like three plus million dollars, and

151
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: guaranteed money kind of gives them an opportunity to see

152
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: what he looks like, see if it develops, if you

153
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: can improve and make some plays, we'll see. One of

154
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: the things that I love around the league that Kelly

155
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: Green uniforms of the Philadelphia Eagles are pretty sweet. But

156
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: you know what else is nice? Another shade of green,

157
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: that cash money green. Because that's what Howie Roseman and

158
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson two guys we both go very well and

159
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: happy for It's a big year for them. They finally

160
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: bring a Super Bowl to the city of Philadelphia, and

161
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: much deserve, they get big extensions to carry him to

162
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: the two seasons. Hey, this is a terrific job. Look

163
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: look to the victor goes to spoils and when you

164
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: look at the Philadelphia Eagles, to success that they being

165
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: able to attain over the last couple of years with

166
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson, Howie Roseman really ushering in a culture change

167
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: and Philly. Yeah, you knew there was gonna be some money,

168
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: just sweeten the pot based on what they were able

169
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: to do. The thing that we can talk about now, Man,

170
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: Philly is a destination spot for people. People understand that

171
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: they have a good time, They win a lot of games.

172
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: They find a way to get their players in and

173
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: I think as a player, you want to be at

174
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: a place that culturally feels right. You can beat yourself

175
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: at the same time, you work hard and win. Right now,

176
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles check off all the boxes and they're

177
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: set up to win because they've got youth at the

178
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,559
Speaker 1: most important position and that's the one taking snaps from center.

179
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: So uh, I think you're gonna see this team continue

180
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: to win and win at a high level. They're in Philadelphia.

181
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: Good on them for extending Howie Roseman and Doug Peterson. Uh.

182
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: Next on the list, we're coming off a Hall of

183
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 1: Fame game. Buck, we haven't been together. I haven't had

184
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: a chance to discuss this one. Lamar Jackson's performance there.

185
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: Look at numbers four of ten thirty three yards touchdown

186
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: and pick uh twenty five rushing yards in that game

187
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: against the Bears. Well, I went back in and watched it,

188
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: and the four and ten doesn't sound good, But when

189
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: you watch it, especially the interception that wasn't I didn't

190
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: even put it on him. Receiver just stuck in his breas.

191
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: But we didn't work back to the quarterback and he

192
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: has to come make down his stem. He didn't do it.

193
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: He just drifts out the now. I think I think

194
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: the thing about this what uh is interesting. I think

195
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: you have a lot of guys that kind of late

196
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: to the party on Lamar Jackson, like guys that may

197
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: have flash scouted him during the process, and then they're

198
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: making these big assumptions or assertions off of this one appearance.

199
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson that I saw playing that game was the

200
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: same one that I scouted. Doesn't throw the ball well

201
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: outside the numbers. Spectacular athlete, big arm talent. You put

202
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: him in a rhythm system that allows him to work

203
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: inside the numbers, he's going to doubt. But if you

204
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: ask him to push the ball outside the numbers, his

205
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,839
Speaker 1: completion percentage drops dramatically. When he's forced to do that,

206
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,199
Speaker 1: from a running around ability. Look, he's specially he has

207
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: some things. I think he's exactly what the Baltimore Ravens saw.

208
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: They got they bargain for now, it's about creating an

209
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,199
Speaker 1: offense that allows him to shot. Yeah, to me, I

210
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: agree with everything you said, and we watched him, you know,

211
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: from the tape to the pro day, even struggling to

212
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: drive the ball outside the numbers, that's still work in progress.

213
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: I think he does have some room to grow there.

214
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,839
Speaker 1: I think he will get better as he continues to

215
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: widen out his base and become a little more firm

216
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: with his footwork. Um. But one of the other things,

217
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 1: when when I'm watching this game and I'm watching him,

218
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: I thought, maybe a little bit more so than at Louisville.

219
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: And he didn't play behind a great offensive line there,

220
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: but I thought instinctually he was trying to get get out.

221
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: And I think he's gonna develop a little more comfort

222
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 1: of hanging slide and shuffling, climbing, working within the framework

223
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: of the pocket. I think that's what if I'm with

224
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens, that's something I'm looking to see that

225
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: progress from week one. Remember, they got five preseason games.

226
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: So from preseason week one the preseason week five, hopefully

227
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: you'll see some progress there. Yeah, I think we will

228
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: see some progress. I think the reports of it being

229
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: like an offer performance, I don't think that's I think

230
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: I think he showed enough in his first start man

231
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: that he was able to take the snap and make

232
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: some plays and make some positive plays. That's fine, laid

233
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: the team down for a drive headed touchdown. I'm not

234
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 1: seeing it's an A plus performance. But look, it's certainly

235
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: wasn't as bad as it was portrayed on the outside.

236
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: All Right, Before we get to our rookie report, here,

237
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: one more little nugget here, let's go north to the border.

238
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: Uh Manzel another another Heisman Trophy winning quarterback. Here, Johnny

239
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: manzel is debut like it was a tough ask, right,

240
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: you get traded within a week and you throw your

241
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 1: right out into the line up. A couple of his

242
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: teammates along the offensive line also thrown right in the

243
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: mix going up against your former team. Uh. Ironically, a

244
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: very patriotic uniform if he was playing uh in America.

245
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: But these are Canadian uniforms, very bright, very colorful, uh

246
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 1: going Uh, Look, I don't know what the expectation was.

247
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: What were your expectations of what you didn't I didn't

248
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: have many expectations. This is a completely different game than

249
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: American football, and Johnny hasn't played real football in a

250
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 1: long time. Look, he had a couple of games in

251
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: spring league. But like anything you have, like foot football

252
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,839
Speaker 1: is a reputation sport, you gotta get the reps to

253
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: get better at it. Man, you can't take two years

254
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: off and come back and think that you're going to dazzle.

255
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: I think he will continue to get better week after

256
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: week after week. It's just a matter of time. If

257
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: I'm kind of finding his rhythm in his group. And

258
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: this sounds, first of all, great form tackle. I know

259
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: this sounds. Look he threw four picks and trying to

260
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 1: pull some good out of a Canadian Football League game.

261
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: But his arm look live, which was a good thing.

262
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: I thought he moved around good. I thought he has

263
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: legs about him. There's just no no rhythm and the

264
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: decision making was awful. So those are things you'll see

265
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: if if he can improve. I have been in the

266
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 1: camp saying, hey, if you've got talent enough to be

267
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 1: drafted in the first round, you always be giving more opportunities.

268
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: And if he can show a pattern, you know, put

269
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: some put some length between him and his issues off

270
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: the field, show a pattern of good behavior off the

271
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: field and a commitment there, and then he starts to

272
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: play better up in Canada. He'll get another shot. Oh,

273
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: he will get another shot. He has to put some

274
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: work in in Canada, show people he can be consistent,

275
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: take care of business off the field. Then on the field,

276
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: just makes slow and steady incremental games. If he does that,

277
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna have an opportunity to get back to the

278
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: National Football League. I just feel so great in the

279
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: soccer uniform. I don't know, I feel like I'm fitter,

280
00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: I feel more in shape. Yeah, maybe maybe have to

281
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 1: do that there. I like you like the fact that

282
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 1: I leave the college shot. I mean I like that.

283
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: That's that's old school. It's kind of business. It's like

284
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: business fund over here. All right, let's get to our

285
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: rookie report. It's time now for our rookie Reports, presented

286
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: by castrol Edge, and we're talking rookies to watch here

287
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 1: preseason week one and that bears I guess we consider

288
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: that week zero. I guess with yeah, like a little

289
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: bit and down a little taste. All right, let's jump

290
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: in here. Give me some players. Why don't you handle

291
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: the offense, I'll handle the defense. Give me three offensive

292
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: players to watch. We're gonna start right away with the

293
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: number one overall. Hey, Baker Mayfield. Everyone wants to see

294
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: what Baker Mayfield is going to look like. And the

295
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 1: thing that I'm looking for from a quarterback command and control.

296
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: Does he have command of the huddle? Does he have

297
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 1: command of the offense? Does he play under control? Does

298
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: it feel like the game is too fast for him?

299
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: If he can just be calm, show a little poise,

300
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: lead his team, and have a couple of successful drives,

301
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: I think that would be an a plus performance for

302
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: a young guy making his first start. I don't expect

303
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 1: him to light it up, but I do expect him

304
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: to be able to just ease into the real him

305
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: of the game and then kind of show the talent

306
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: that some believe that made him the number one overall pick.

307
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: It makes you see can you throw with anticipation? Does

308
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: he let the ball go in rhythm not have to

309
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: see it? Because in the Big twelve and in that

310
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: offense was so prolific at Oklahoma, guys get so dang

311
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: white open. You saw glimpses of him making some tight

312
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: window throws, but I want to see NFL football, can

313
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: you get the ball out, fitballs and small spaces and

314
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: do it with anticipation. So that's what I'll be looking for. Yeah,

315
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: it's just basic in the time and a lot of

316
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: what we liked about him his ability to make accurate throws.

317
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 1: We always talked about he was the most accurate thrower

318
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: in this draft, and so I want to see how

319
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: does that translate when the game speeds up, the players

320
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: are fast, and the winners are tighter. Can he continue

321
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: to still do those things or give me another offensive plays?

322
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: Sam Donald? Sam Donald is Look, he was a little

323
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 1: late reporting to camp, got the deal done, but they

324
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: still say that he's in the mix to start for

325
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: the number one job for the Jets. So I want

326
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 1: to see what does he look like? How does he

327
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: look when he gets his opportunity to go on the field.

328
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 1: He'll probably go out there with the twos, should be

329
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: able to dominate those guys. If he plays well there,

330
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 1: I think he'll move up the chart in terms of

331
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: playing time against the the good versus good guys we'll

332
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: see he still has a chance to win his job.

333
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: Let's just see if he can take a big step

334
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: forward with the first week. Everything I've heard just continues

335
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: to progress, make some big time throws every practice, and

336
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: it's been outstanding on the move. Now, the other thing

337
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: is you've got Teddy Bridgewater and Josh McCown have both

338
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: had good camps. But I think if it's even close

339
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: at all, I would think you're gonna see fourteen tried

340
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: out there week one. So that process starts here in

341
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: the first preseason game. We'll see if he lights it up.

342
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: You give me one more guy here, buck, Ronald Jones.

343
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: We can talk about Ronald Jones because the Tampa Bay

344
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: Buccaneers need a difference maker at running back. They haven't

345
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: had that for the last couple of years. They need

346
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: a guy that can not only make plays as a runner,

347
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: but catch the ball out the backfield. I believe Ronald

348
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: Jones can do that. I want to see in this

349
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: first game against the Miami Dolphins. Give me a flash,

350
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 1: give me something to get excited about. Because coaches are

351
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: looking for how they can build offense around the talents

352
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: of certain players. Let's see what road Joe does, and

353
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: see if we can find something to do specifically to

354
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: hill him elevate the program. How you like the double deuce?

355
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: The number there? I like that. I like twenty two

356
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: is a good look. Twenty two was my number in

357
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: high school. Twenty two is my favorite number. Why did

358
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: you wear twenty two? Days number? And it's my birthday?

359
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: So my birthday is seventy one. Send all gifts in January,

360
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: send him to the podcast. I will take them and

361
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: accept him. Between two. It was easy. It is a

362
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: clean number. The double deuce, yeah, I like it all right.

363
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: Let me go over the defensive side of the ball

364
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: here and give you a couple of guys. Let's start, uh,

365
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: Bradley Chubb. I mean, that's an easy one, right with

366
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: the Denver broncos I'm gonna see what he does. And

367
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: don't imagine you're gonna see a whole lot of von

368
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: Miller in the preseason, but we will get a chance

369
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: to see Bradley Chubb, who's a dominating edge rusher can

370
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: win with power. We've seen that plenty of NC State.

371
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: He's outstanding with his hands, and I'm anxious to see

372
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 1: if he's picked up a couple of tricks. There after

373
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: having been around von Miller for this amount of time,

374
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: we see him bend and wrap a little bit more

375
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: coming off the edge. I cannot wait to see him

376
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: in preseason action. HI host big expectations for Bradley Chubb.

377
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: When von Miller talks about this guy being a combination

378
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 1: of Khalil mackin himself, man, you have to gun to

379
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: perk up standing attention and see he has what I

380
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: liked about him at NC State. He played hard, He

381
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: had a toolbox full of tools. He could come at

382
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: you in a varide of different ways, and he was

383
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: relentless when he came to his pursuit of a quarterback.

384
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: Plus he got a little nasty. I think he gives

385
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: that Broncos defense something that they lacked and the opportunity

386
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: to have three pass rushers Shane Ray, Shane Ray, Von Miller,

387
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: Bradley Chubb. Man, you like what they are able to

388
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: do with those three guys on the field. Well, you

389
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: mentioned Baker Mayfield on offense. Let's go to their their

390
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: next pick in the draft, Denzel Award on defense, the

391
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: corner who's already emerged as a starter here for the

392
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns're gonna see him in action against the New

393
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: York Giants. Now, they have a pretty good receiving core Buck.

394
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: I don't know how much we're gonna see those guys,

395
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: but he'll get a chance to get tested early on.

396
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: He's a fantastic cover corner. He's so fluid, so smooth.

397
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: A lot of people were shocked by that pick because

398
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: Chub was still there, and uh, I would have had

399
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: Chubb over Denzel Ward. But for me, it was very close,

400
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: and I don't think that was a bad pick. And

401
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: I think we'll see why. Here a week one in

402
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: the preseason, we get a chance see Denzel a Ward

403
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: in action. Yeah, mean that Cleveland Browns opted for the

404
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: cover corner over the pass rusher with Denzel Award. They

405
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 1: believe he's a natural number one corner. They believe he's

406
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: going to be able to travel and lockdown and take

407
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: away UH top wide receivers all over the place. I

408
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: love to meat Ohio State. I in fact, thought he

409
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: was a better player than Marshawn Lattimore. You're talking about

410
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: the defensive rookie of the year last season in the

411
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: National Football League. Denzel Awards should come out. I want

412
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 1: to see how does he hold up He's not get

413
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: a chance to go against O'Dell, but how does he

414
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 1: hold up against the receivers that he sees from the Giants?

415
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,479
Speaker 1: That'll go a long way, and letting us know if

416
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: he's going to be able to handle some of the

417
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: responsibilities that you typically give to a shut down corner.

418
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,679
Speaker 1: All right, And this and the last one here a

419
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: little bit under the radar, and not just because the

420
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: last name reminds me of a classic R and B.

421
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: Not Keith Sweat. We're going Josh Sweat here with the

422
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, who by all accounts, had a great training

423
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: camp for the Eagles. Remember, they're loaded in that defensive line.

424
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: We know they've got pass rushers for days. But Brandon

425
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 1: Graham's coming off of an injury. You've got Timmy journ

426
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: Agins coming off an injury inside, So having another body

427
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 1: you can throw in there and his ability as an

428
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 1: edge rusher. Big knock on him had nothing to do

429
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:05,959
Speaker 1: with his ability, was his durability. There was a lot

430
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: of concern there with his knee, but all by all accounts,

431
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: he's been good. He's been good health wise here for

432
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles. So we see like a Yannicking Gockway

433
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,880
Speaker 1: type player emerged every year outside the first round. Hey,

434
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: maybe this year it's it's Keith Sweat's cousin, even though

435
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: they're not cousins. Josh Sat Now, the thing about Joshua,

436
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,479
Speaker 1: Joshua was a five star recruit coming out of high school.

437
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: He was to cast meal flash him of that ability

438
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: at Florida State before the injury, the knees and all

439
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: those things became major concerns. If he is able to

440
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: stay healthy and available, he absolutely could be one of

441
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: those guys that you talk about Yannicking Dockway, someone that

442
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: comes out of nowhere to become a perennial sack leader.

443
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,880
Speaker 1: He has big time ability. It's just a matter of

444
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: keeping him on the field and being there. And for

445
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: the field Eagles, the way they're going to use them,

446
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 1: they're just gonna throw him into rotation. Some of me said,

447
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: for those guys that were those five star high school

448
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 1: players that flashed in college, but because of injury or

449
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: different other scenarios, it didn't Happenfore we see him to

450
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: get to the nfls to fund digs is one that

451
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: comes is the big thing. Stefan Diggs was the second

452
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: rated receiver when he came out. He was ranked ahead

453
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: of guys like a Mariy Cooper and others. And we've

454
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: seen him play to that talent, so I'll play to

455
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: mari Cooper, you know. So now you look at a

456
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: guy like a Josh Witt who was highly regarded, maybe,

457
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: just maybe Philadephic could put him in a situation where

458
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: his talent comes out. So we'll see there. That was

459
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 1: our That was our Rookie Report, presented by castro Edge.

460
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: Will be doing that each and every week as we

461
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: go through the preseason here. But let's get some more

462
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 1: storylines to watch here preseason. Let's just let's just go

463
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: ping pong back and forth here and go through a

464
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 1: couple of more you got. I want to see what

465
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: Andrew luck looks like. This has been a long time coming.

466
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: Everybody is all in on Andrew Luck. Well, what I

467
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: want to do is I want to see how he

468
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 1: fits physically. Does his game look any different? Does this

469
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: ball look different? Does he have to arm strength to

470
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,360
Speaker 1: make all the throws? Are there limitations to what he's

471
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 1: going to be able to do as a passer because

472
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: of their limitations? Then it's on Frank Reich and the

473
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: crew to figure out a way to kind of work

474
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: around those to allow him to thrive. This is a

475
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: unique situation seeing an elite quarterback talent having to come

476
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 1: back from a severe injury that kid affected his throwing motion.

477
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: Let's just see if he's able to come back and

478
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 1: show a glimpse of some of that talent that made

479
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: us excited a few years ago over underpasses for him

480
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: Week one in the preseason here and you're gonna flat

481
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: him throw it ten times? Oh yeah, we got good

482
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 1: test that thing out a little bit. I'm gonna take

483
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: the four two series four passes. That's that's my guests,

484
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 1: Why are we suiting up for that? That's what I'm not.

485
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: So we're gonna he's into it. It's week one. I'm

486
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: gonna go with this Tennessee Titans offense under Matt Lafleur.

487
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 1: See what it looks like with Marcus Mariota. Don't anticipate

488
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna see a lot of Mariota in this game,

489
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: but I want to see what the offense looks like.

490
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: Are we gonna see some similarities what we saw with

491
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: the Rams where the flour came from saw the Floor

492
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: with the Atlanta Falcons. These are high flying, explosive offenses,

493
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: not what we've come to see from the Tennessee Titans

494
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: over the last few years. So are they gonna open

495
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 1: things up a little bit? In other words, what I'm

496
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 1: looking forward to see, Yeah, to be interested to see

497
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 1: what Mad the Floor does with this offense. Last year,

498
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota was the most efficient quarterback throwing off play

499
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: action what kind of things and Matt la Fleur build

500
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: into the game plan to allow him to play to

501
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: his strengths. Remember the last two places where the La

502
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 1: Fleur worked l A with Jerry Golf Atlanta with Kyle

503
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: Shanahan and Matt Ryan. They did a great job of

504
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: using play action and set those guys up. I'm sure

505
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: he has some sexy play action passes for him to

506
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: set him up. What movie is it? By the way

507
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: behind the glass, you boys can help me out here,

508
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: La Fleur. I want to say, is that dodgeball Peter

509
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 1: la Fleur? Nice? Okay, that was very nice, very nice

510
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: Peter la Fleur. And that was Vince Vaughan's character, right, Okay.

511
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: I just want to get that, wanted to get that

512
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: in my head here all right, we're gonna keep keep

513
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: moving here, Buck, what else you got? Here? We go?

514
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see Derek Carr and John Gruden make

515
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: their official debut together. Um. John Gruden had talked about

516
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: taking this offense back to well. I was there in nine.

517
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 1: I remember what it looked like when uh he had

518
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 1: Jeff George playing Dinya gav rige gannon quick rhythm offense

519
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: really built around the running game. UH, high percentage passes

520
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 1: for the quarterback. Quarterback has to make decisions pre impulse.

521
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 1: Let's see if Dered Carr is mature enough to handle

522
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 1: that responsibility. Let's also see if John Gruden can kind

523
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 1: of juice up this running game. You have Marshall Lynch, dear,

524
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: you have Doug Martin who could play a role there,

525
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 1: big offensive line? How do the Raiders put it all

526
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 1: together offensively? For John? Speaking of that was the five

527
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 1: man sled right there. Let's see the five man sled

528
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: very often, not often? Love that? Um? All right to me?

529
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,239
Speaker 1: Another story line keeping is, let's keep with the quarterback here,

530
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. Can we get up some help with Seattle?

531
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 1: Who's gonna e merge? Here? Is it gonna be Rashad Penny,

532
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: the rookie from San Diego State. Is he gonna get

533
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: in the mix? I don't know if he's even gonna

534
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: win that that job there, but Tyler Lockett's gonna have

535
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: to step up be a consistent playmaker. What's Brandon Marshall's role?

536
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: Can they get him involved here with this team? So

537
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 1: just giving him some help? Offensive line has forever been

538
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: a concern there. It sounds like you're main a Fetti's

539
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: in the dog house. Is nothing new there, but just

540
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: all kinds of questions around Russell Wilson. We've talked about

541
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 1: this team being a sneaky bad team Buck. What do

542
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: they look like here in the preseason? Yeah, I mean

543
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 1: we want to see Brian schod Hammer takes over, Mike

544
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: Slauri comes over to help with the offensive line. I

545
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,200
Speaker 1: want to see what kind of offense Brian Schodheimer puts

546
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: together for um Russell Wilson. Bryan Schottenheimer has never been

547
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 1: known or viewed as one of the most creative play

548
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: calls or play designers. But you have a unique weapon,

549
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson a guy that can throw it, can

550
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 1: run it, can make plays off the cuff. What does

551
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: he do to maximize his ability as a dual threat

552
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: on the perimeter. That will be the thing that I'm

553
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: looking for in week one. I mean the known commodity

554
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: we have there. We know Doug Baldwin, angry Doug Baldwin

555
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: as we like to call him. It is phenomenal. He's great.

556
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: He's nicked up right now. So you're gonna see, uh,

557
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: some of these other weapons have to emerge to help

558
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 1: out Russell Wilson. That's the storyline. I'll be keeping an

559
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: eye on all right, Buck, this is beefy show Man.

560
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: We're just we're right in the middle here. We got

561
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: a lot more to get to. Let's get to the

562
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: running backs. You ready to do a little running back preview?

563
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 1: This Nothing makes me happier than to do list. I

564
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: love doing top five rank and bankt go top top

565
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: five running backs five and you can roll. You go

566
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 1: top five running backs heading into at number five. Man,

567
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: you gotta put the NFL rushing leader Kareem Hunt. Kareem

568
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: Hunt is in the mix because he's unique in terms

569
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: of his ability to run with power, flash a little speed,

570
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: and burst, but also make plays in the passing game.

571
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: Last season we saw him do it in a major way.

572
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: Really helped Alex Smith continue to make big plays. I

573
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: think he has an opportunity to be a great one.

574
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: At four Ezekiel Elliott for the Dallas Cowboys ten Russian champ,

575
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: miss six games last year due to suspension. He's in

576
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,880
Speaker 1: better shape this year. I can't think he comes back

577
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: makes a run at the Russian title. More importantly, I

578
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 1: think he puts the Cowboys offense on the back as

579
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 1: they make a run in the NFC East. At three

580
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 1: d J two k not Daniel Jeremiah David Johnson two

581
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,640
Speaker 1: thousand meeting one thousand, Russian one thousand receiving was close

582
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 1: to getting it done a couple of seasons of go.

583
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: This year I think he gets done. He is the

584
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: bell cow in an offense that needs him to be

585
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 1: the workhorse. At two Todd Gurley. You talk about big

586
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: bank Hank Todd Gurley new contract because he is such

587
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: a dynamic weapon. This is a guy that was a

588
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: scrimmage yards leader a year ago, can run, can get outside,

589
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,160
Speaker 1: kiss the ball out of the backfield. I think he's terrific.

590
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 1: And at number one Levian Bill he is Mr. Everything

591
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: NFL history leader in scrimmage yards per game, ahead of

592
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Barry Sanders. I think this guy

593
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: is going to be a Hall of Famer. He is

594
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: the ultimate playmaker at the position. First of all, great list.

595
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,160
Speaker 1: I like what you did there. If if my nickname

596
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,439
Speaker 1: was DJ two Kids, because I had two thousand calories

597
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: for breakfast, that would be the only reason I would

598
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: carry that nickname. But I'm I'm assigned here with trying

599
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 1: to find the snub and bucket. There's no it's the

600
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,679
Speaker 1: first time this an. There's legitimately two snubs. Oh, I

601
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: can't even see where we can fit anybody else in.

602
00:25:58,080 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 1: But this is a challenge because I know what you're

603
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: gonna asked me. As soon as I tell you who

604
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 1: the snubs are, you gonna ask me who I have

605
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 1: to pull off the list. That's where it gets a

606
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: little tricky, all right, Kareem Hunt. I love Kareem Hunt.

607
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 1: But if you told me right now and we and

608
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: I believe you agree with me, we have a chance

609
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 1: to have a draft right now for your team. You're

610
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: the general manager, Bucky Brooks, and you told me I

611
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: can have DeVante Freeman or Kareem Hunt. I'm taking I'm

612
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: gonna take DeVonta Freeman. DeVante Freeman is more dynamic version

613
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: of Kareem Hunt. We've seen DeVonta Freeman do this for

614
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. I would plug him in. I think

615
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: he's a snub buck. I do think I would take

616
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: him over Cream Hunt, even though I know he led

617
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: the league in rushing. I get that. But if I

618
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: got to choose between the two, I'm taking DeVonta Freeman

619
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 1: in a wild card. Well, they don't even prepared for

620
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: this behind the glass, but I don't want silly to

621
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: let the air out of my tires, So I'll say

622
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamara would be another one. I would thought about that,

623
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 1: I would consider. There they got consideration. But here's the thing.

624
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: DeVante Freeman shares a little time with Zevin Coleman Alvin Kamar.

625
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 1: I like him as a role player, not necessarily my

626
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: everyday thing. But I just don't know where I fit

627
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 1: those guys in. I'm gonna remove of Kareem Hunt, the

628
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: reigning NFL rushing champion. I mean, Jordan Howard finished second

629
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: the year before, and you don't have him. He doesn't

630
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 1: have any crowns. Though he doesn't have a crown if

631
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: you had a crown, and be honest, look when you

632
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 1: get When you get a crown, it's a little different.

633
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: I love Kareem Hunt. I know you have a guy.

634
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: I know you don't go out much, but it's almost

635
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 1: like being at the bar and it's a bachelor party's

636
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: as a beastlorette party, and you get a chance to

637
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 1: see him with the Tierra like they had a Star

638
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 1: of the night by the way on that front as

639
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: we as we moved through here. Yeah, yeah, you know.

640
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: I don't drink, right, so when people want to do

641
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: something and people want to give you thank you President,

642
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 1: they'll give you a bottle of wine. Right The good

643
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: news for anybody that's getting me any presents. If you're

644
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: gonna buy me a bottle of wine, I don't know

645
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: the difference between what expensive wine. Give me the cheapest thing,

646
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: and you could sell me that this is like the

647
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: nicest president of all time. I won't. Yes, that's the

648
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: good stuff right now, it's the real good stuff. You

649
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 1: know what. I think we can get him some of

650
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: that white zinfandel in the box. Get some of that

651
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: one is an instrument or a wine. I don't't know

652
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: what but I'm not a really a wine drinker. But

653
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 1: I think we can get you. We can get you, Dad,

654
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: or we can go back to college, get you a

655
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: little boons Farm. They tell me that Boone Farm is vintage.

656
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 1: Is vintage. That's great. I don't touch it, but I've

657
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: heard it's fantastic. All right, Let's get to my top

658
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 1: three running backs, the rookie version here to watch in

659
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: the upcoming season. Let's start at number three, and I'm

660
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: gonna go. Guy you talked about a little earlier in

661
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: the show. Ronald Jones here for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Now,

662
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 1: I think there's a chance of Painting Barbar ends up

663
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: being the starter early on in the season, but Ronald

664
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: Jones could eclips him before we get too deep into

665
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 1: the season. Ronal Jones, we know he's gonna be a

666
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: home run hitter. He's a slashing runner. He's got take

667
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: the doors off, you know, knocked the doors off. Speed.

668
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: Needs to be a little bit more consistent catching the ball,

669
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: blocking the ball. That's gonna be the challenge for him.

670
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 1: So he would be number three on my list of

671
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: running backs. When I get the number two, Uh not

672
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: my guy, your guy. I don't know if we have

673
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: a your guy drop. I think we just have a

674
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: he is my guy. Yeah, that's this is your guy

675
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: buck and this is Royce Freeman. Glad you're coming around

676
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: to put put him in number two. I'm glad you're

677
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: coming around. I like Royce Freeman. I liked him coming out.

678
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: But look, he's it's opportunity right. There's better runners than

679
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: Royce Freeman in my opinion that I haven't mentioned. But

680
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 1: he's going to get the opportunity here with the Denver Broncos.

681
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: He's the only thing that hurts me where Royce's dad number.

682
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 1: I've never seen a great numbers back. I just don't

683
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: know what we do. I don't know what. I don't

684
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: even know how you signed it on your card like

685
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: it just looks it just looks odd. When you get

686
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: a bad number, it's hard to play with a bad number.

687
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: Hit us up on Twitter and let us know. If

688
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: it's made a great run, it would be a bad

689
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: quarterback number. What's a bad quarterback number? Nineteen? A bad

690
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: quarterback number? I mean, because there's it's tough nineteen Johnny

691
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: United's War nineteen, one of the all time greats. Not

692
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: pretty much everybody. You can hit it pretty much any

693
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: number twenty twenty a quarterback, right like Bernie Kosar didn't

694
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: Bernie Cosar war twenty at min. Yeah, that's unusual. I

695
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: think Shaye Patterson, what did he rich Je say Pattison

696
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: wears a twenty number. I don't know if you still

697
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: wears it in Indiana quarterback Anyways, we're so sidetrack here,

698
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 1: can I alright? Number one? No, no surprise to go

699
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: out on a limb if sometimes things are obvious for

700
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: a reason, stake Kuon Barkley will be the most impactful

701
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: rookie running back. Now, we're not gonna see much of

702
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 1: him in the preseason, but we are going to see

703
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: him during the regular season. I think you're gonna see

704
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: a big role for him in this offense. Obviously, everybody

705
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: talks about the physique and the physical tools. I cannot

706
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: wait to see how they use them. They're gonna split

707
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: him out, get him in the slot, split him out wide.

708
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: Creates some mismatches to me, That's what I cannot wait

709
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: to see how they deploy see Kwon Barkley. Oh, we

710
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: certainly shouldn't see that in the preseason, because I can

711
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 1: the preseason. If I'm the New York Jazz, he's in

712
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: bubble wrap, and I know my venomans are mad because

713
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 1: everyone wants to see the young guy play. But oh no,

714
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: he may line up the first snap, but we were

715
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: on a four back dive and get him right off

716
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: the field. That's it. Yeah, fool back and running. He's

717
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: not running. I don't want him to touch the ball

718
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: in the preseason. All right. Anyways, we got the running

719
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: back position preview. There you at the Vets. I got

720
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 1: the rookies. We'll see what happens with that group. I

721
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 1: know everybody's getting fired up for their fantasy football season,

722
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: so uh, some big decisions for you guys to make

723
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: out there. All right. We're we're trying to preview each

724
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: division as we go through the preseason to get us

725
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 1: ready for the regular season. The first one up is

726
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: the a f C West preview. We had a chance

727
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: to go out to the Los Angeles Chargers practice and

728
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 1: uh and from that live location, not only talk about

729
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: the Charges, but talk about the entire a f C West.

730
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: Here's our preview from our move the sticks practice visit

731
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 1: with the Chargers. All right, Buck, we're out here at

732
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: Chargers camp. And if you're looking at this division as

733
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: a whole, the a f C West might be one

734
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 1: of the more interesting divisions in the National Football League

735
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: this year. A lot of turnover, a lot of changes

736
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: around the division. Well, I think it's very interesting because

737
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: you have to look at quarterbacks. Whenever we talk about

738
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: winning games, it's all about the quarterbacks. And so look,

739
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: the Charges are set up because they have Philip Rivers,

740
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 1: but really the rest of the division, I mean, you

741
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 1: have Derek Carran plays, but the rest division is in

742
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: turmoil of the transition. You have case Can going to

743
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos. He does rejoin his old coaches and

744
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,959
Speaker 1: administrating Gary Kubiak, and you wonder what kind of offense

745
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: they can put together for him. And then in Kansas City,

746
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: everyone is excited about Pat Mahomes, but what would he

747
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: look like when he finally gets his opportunity to play.

748
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: So because of that, I believe the division is wide open.

749
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 1: But you always have to favor the experienced quarterback in

750
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: those situations. Now you mentioned the quarterback turnover. Then you

751
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: get to the Raiders. Yeah, they have Derek carrback, but

752
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: you got new Coachair and John Gruden thinks a little different. Yeah, So,

753
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 1: I mean I think that the thing about the Raiders

754
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: when you look at the quarterback position in Derek Carr,

755
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 1: how does John Gruden relate? How does he help Derek

756
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: Carr elevate his game? When we look at all of

757
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: the young quarterbacks that have had success, they've had creative

758
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 1: play calls that have been able to sprinkle in some

759
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: of the college game to help him. John Gruden isn't

760
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: a fan of r P O S. Says he wants

761
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: to take the game back to So what does he

762
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: have in his bag of tricks to help Derek Carr

763
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: become a successful player. One name on the subject of

764
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 1: the Raiders I keep an eye on here, Maurice Hearst.

765
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: Just remember that one man coming through the draft process

766
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: we talked about race Hurst as a first round pick,

767
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 1: had some medical information that came out. A lot of

768
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 1: teams took him off the board, slid down the raid.

769
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: I believe it's a fifth round when they ended up

770
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: taking him. I think he's got a chance to start

771
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: Day one and be an impact player. Now he's not

772
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, but he's that similar type of frame and

773
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: can be used in a similar type of role. Oh absolutely,

774
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean he's a guy. Look, they got a first

775
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: round value when they were able to pick him. Look,

776
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: if he's healthy and right, we know he's a high

777
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: energy player, great motor player. Gut Is does a great

778
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: job of playing on the other side of line of

779
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 1: scrimmage and using his hands. They haven't been able to

780
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: really win at the line of scrimmage for a while.

781
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: He gives him another player that should be able to

782
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: do it, particularly if Killio Mac comes back and plays

783
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: the entire season. The other name. I keep an eye

784
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 1: on rookie Wise arden Key. You know, if you get

785
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 1: the young version of Art and Key we saw at

786
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: l s H was a dominant player. It sounds like

787
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 1: the reports out of Oakland have been pretty positive about

788
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 1: the way he's been playing early on. If they get

789
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 1: that version of arden Key, Gill see another a young

790
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: player have a big time role. Yeah, I mean, look

791
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: arden Key Mohurst, those two young guys can ask him energy.

792
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: Didn't think it. Mario Averarde junior back, Khalio macback, get

793
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 1: Bruce Irvan playing at a high level, that would be

794
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: the ratest defense that people have been a speck in

795
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. They haven't been the middle

796
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: of the pack defense, They've been at the bottom third.

797
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: They need to play better defense until that offense can

798
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: kind of get on. Tried go back up to Denver

799
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 1: here Denver talking about the change at quarterback. We also

800
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: have some change on the defensive side of the ball,

801
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: namely keep the lead being out of there, had a

802
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: lot of depth there. You've got Roby in place, You've

803
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: got Chris Harris. It's a good group, but I do

804
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 1: think that's a piece they're gonna miss this fall. Oh,

805
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: they absolutely missed keep the leave like his veteran leadership,

806
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: his experience, his playmaking ability. We could say that he

807
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: was declining a little bit as a player because some

808
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 1: of the athleticism and speed is dwindling. But big time

809
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,439
Speaker 1: player does a great job of reading and jumping Rouse

810
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: and in that system he was very comfortable. You lose him,

811
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 1: you put Bradley Roby higher up the food chain, We'll

812
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 1: see a Brandley robicin deliver those same results. I think

813
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: that team is gonna go as far as the offensive

814
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: line will take him. I know a lot of people

815
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 1: will appoint at case keenom can he duplicate what he

816
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,439
Speaker 1: did in Minnesota. I think Case Keenum is gonna be fine.

817
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: I do, though, look at this offensive line where they've

818
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: invested resources buck high draft picks and some free agent dollars.

819
00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: They need that offensive line to play the high level.

820
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: Do you need the offensive line to play a high level?

821
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 1: And they need to be able to run the ball.

822
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: Case Keendom has been an effective quarterback, was an effective

823
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: quarterback in Minnesota, but part of the reason he was

824
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: effective because they didn't put everything on him. I believe

825
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: you make a mistake if you put too much on

826
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: him expecting to kind of drive the bus. They need

827
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: to run a game to be a major factor in

828
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: their game plan, and then they need to Marris Thomas

829
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,879
Speaker 1: and Maazing Sanders to do the job in the passing game.

830
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 1: And it's going down to Kansas City here, Kansas City

831
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: that Patrick Mahomes is in, Alex Smith is out. We

832
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: talked about it on a previous podcast. They traded efficiency

833
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 1: for explosiveness. And I think with this with this new

834
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: regime now, with a new era here, with Patrick Mahomes

835
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: at quarterback, you're gonna see some while, but you're gonna

836
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 1: see some what as well. Mark Yeah, the wild players

837
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 1: are going downs and you everyone is fascinated by what

838
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: he could be. And look, he had a really good

839
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 1: game when he had opportunity to play against the deviverer

840
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 1: Broncos last year Week seventeen. You saw the things that

841
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 1: kind of tease you and excite your big arm. Talented

842
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: athlete can make plays on the move, but he's gonna

843
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: be a questionable decision maker at times. Canny minimize those

844
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 1: high risk, high reward plays and just kind of manage

845
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 1: the game in a way that Alex Smith did while

846
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 1: all so adding that explosive element. If he can do that,

847
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: the Kansie the Chiefs could be a team that we

848
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,240
Speaker 1: talked about being a Super Bowl contendent because that offenses

849
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: likes out yeah offense, so many different weapons on the offense.

850
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: I feel like we talked so much about Tyreek Kill

851
00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 1: and his explosiveness. Travis Kelsey one of the top two

852
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: tight ends in the National Football League, but it seems

853
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 1: weird coming off a rookie season that Cream Hunt had.

854
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 1: He's He's rarely mentioned here in the off season when

855
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 1: we talk about all the weapons with his Chief's offense,

856
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: because you know, everyone the passing game is the driving

857
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: force for most of these teams, and so everyone gets

858
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 1: excited about the pass catchers, but we talked about it.

859
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: The playmakers matter. He is a big time playmaker lit

860
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 1: league in Russian also called the ball well out the backfield.

861
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: He gives that offense and element of balance allows him

862
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: really to set up the play action shots and then

863
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: you know everyone kind of wants to take shots, said Sammy.

864
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: Watkins was getting a sixty million all the deal, but

865
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: when he came out, he was a top receiver on

866
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 1: most boards. He's an explosive playmaker, and when he's been

867
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: healthy and available, he has made plays. I'm excited to

868
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 1: see what this office can look like with Pat Mahomes

869
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,320
Speaker 1: as a trigger man. No Marcus Peters on the defensive

870
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: side of the ball. At they'll feel that lost lost

871
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 1: in veteran leadership of the linebacker position as well. I

872
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 1: think the Chiefs team probably that I would say the

873
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 1: biggest enigma of this group could be a hero or zero.

874
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: I haven't say zero, but I can see them going

875
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 1: anywhere from eight wins to to twelve or third team wins.

876
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: When you really look at them, it really depends on

877
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: how to elect to play defense. Uh. In today's game.

878
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 1: We've seen in preseason, the the helmet rule, the flags

879
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 1: that are going, you're almost better served to concede yours

880
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 1: from twenty to twenty and be really good. This is

881
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 1: what the New England Patriots have done for years. They

882
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,280
Speaker 1: give up yards, ranking to twenties in terms of total

883
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: yards allowed within in the red zone. They don't give

884
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 1: up points, and they find a way to make turnovers.

885
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: If you can play defense like that when an offense

886
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,239
Speaker 1: they can't see the appears to have on paper, that

887
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: could be the recipe for them to have LAWETI success,

888
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: no doubt. Now let's let's talk about the team we're

889
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 1: here to see today, the Los Angeles Chargers. And you

890
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier Buck, the quarterback position, the veteran leadership you

891
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 1: have there with Philip Rivers, really a stabilizing force. And

892
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: last year this team playing as well as anybody coming

893
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: down the stretch late as well as anybody come down

894
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 1: the stretch. I think what I found interesting talking to

895
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: a guy who's a buddy of the head coach Anthony Lynn.

896
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: They go back and forth. He used to coach at

897
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn, and one of the things he said, if

898
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: you notice the charges. About midway through the season, they

899
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: went from being a team to try to establish the

900
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 1: run early in games to a let's open it up early,

901
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 1: get to the running game late, and when you have

902
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: a vetter quarterback like Philip Rivers who knows what he's

903
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 1: doing with the football, you get those points early forced

904
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: teams to kind of get away from the box. Then

905
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 1: you can give the ball to Melvin Gordon in the

906
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:30,919
Speaker 1: third and fourth quarters when you really need to salt

907
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: the game away. Yeah, let's make Melvin Gordon the closer,

908
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: not the starter. It's kind of that is a nice recipe,

909
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: And when you really look at the way the league

910
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: has been trending, teams that throw the ball on first

911
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: down a more successful than those that are trying to

912
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: grind it out, flip the script, come out throwing and

913
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,240
Speaker 1: attacking early put points up on the board. This altered

914
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 1: the way. With a nice running game and the depth

915
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: they have the receiver position. In the injury to Hunter

916
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: Henry at the tight end position, I think you're still

917
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 1: gonna see a lot of three and four wide receiver

918
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 1: sets out here with this group. The name that people

919
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: kind of forget about with then this offense because You've

920
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: got Mike Williams coming back. I think he's gonna be

921
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 1: solid this year year number two, healthy and comfortable. You

922
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,320
Speaker 1: know about Tyrolle Williams with some big plays. Obviously, Keenan

923
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: Allen is the headliner of that group. But Travis Benjamin

924
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,479
Speaker 1: to me just watching this team practice a little bit,

925
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 1: his ability to get him in matchups. Coach Wizenhut does

926
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: a great job of getting him an ideal matchups, kind

927
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 1: of forgotten guy in that offense. He is a forgotten guy.

928
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 1: As you talked about it. I think this team could

929
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: be a ten personnel team, one back, four wild receivers.

930
00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: You got three big bodies, Mike william Tyberroll Williams, Keenan Allen,

931
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,720
Speaker 1: and then you got Travis Benjamin to speed guy. Depending

932
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: on how they split their sets and aligned people up,

933
00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 1: they really can do a tough job of creating matchups

934
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: for the defense. Kind of like what the Charges have

935
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 1: on offense. They miss on Henry he would be he

936
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: would have been a big factor for them, but man

937
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: being able to spread it out and kind of go

938
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 1: a spread and shred attack could be dangerous for opponents

939
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 1: trying to match up with him and defensively, you look

940
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 1: at you know, putting Derwin James into this defense with

941
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 1: a Joey Bosa Melvin Ingram coming off the edge. Then

942
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 1: you'd get a Channa new wol Suit from USC who

943
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 1: can be kind of a hybrid. You can move him around.

944
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,720
Speaker 1: Kaiser White from West Virginia was his safety. They've converted

945
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: to a will linebacker who's got a lot of buzz

946
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: here early in camp. I think it's one of the

947
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: more it's one of the faster defenses in National Football League,

948
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: one of the more dynamic defenses, and dynamic defense because

949
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: they kind of built the right way. In today's game,

950
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: you gotta be able to rush the passer. They have

951
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: two edge Russes and Joey Boss and Melvin Ingland that

952
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: can get home. They can disrupt the flu of the offense.

953
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: And then on the outside they can cover. So if

954
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,799
Speaker 1: you can rest the quarterback and you can cover, you

955
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 1: can play top nice defense in this league. That's the

956
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,120
Speaker 1: way to lead his training. It is shaping up to

957
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 1: be one of the more fascinating divisions in the NFL.

958
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,800
Speaker 1: Looking forward to watching the Chargers out here practice today

959
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:39,799
Speaker 1: and and we're looking forward to some fun conversation. You're

960
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: gonna throw that right now to some of the conversations

961
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 1: we've had with Chargers personnel, front office, as well as

962
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: some of the top players in the team. All right,

963
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,160
Speaker 1: joined by Los Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn. Coach

964
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: house camp going so far, so forth, so good. You know,

965
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 1: today we have a nice situational day. Took a little

966
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: off the players because of the blue white scrimmish tomorrow,

967
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: but I thought we uh put them in some situations

968
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 1: day to see how they would responding, and got a

969
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,799
Speaker 1: lot of good teaching tape. I watched Philip Rivers out

970
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: here today and I'm sitting here trying to figure out

971
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: how he's doing what he's doing at this age, because

972
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: he let a couple go down the field today. He's

973
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 1: really stretching the field. His arm looks as live now

974
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: as it did his rookie year. When you're throwing the

975
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,880
Speaker 1: Travis Benjiman like that, you can let a few go

976
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: because he'll go get it. But now it feels he's

977
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 1: had a good camp, you know, and his arms look

978
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: just fine. At some point we'll start telling back his reps,

979
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: but right now he looks really good. You look at

980
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: this the receiver positions specifically on this team. Coach, I

981
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,720
Speaker 1: think it's a stacked as any in the National Football League.

982
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: Mike Williams from even the first training can't practice out

983
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: here to today, it seems like he's really progressing quick.

984
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 1: I would disagree with you right there, but because I

985
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: gotta see it to believe it. But uh, I like

986
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 1: the guys that we have. You know, Keenan Allen, you know,

987
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: he's a he's a pros pro and he's stepping it

988
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: up in every way leadership wise, the whole nine. Mike

989
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: Williams had his best practice though the day. Yeah, but

990
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:52,320
Speaker 1: you know, we gotta get keep Michael on the field,

991
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 1: get him in games, and I know what I believe.

992
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 1: I know we here'll bring to the table. Uh. Tyrelle Williams.

993
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 1: You know, he's he's he's been a role guy boys,

994
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 1: but he went to step in and right now he's

995
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 1: our starter and he's improved. I've been very impressed with

996
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: this development because I've seen him working it throughout the

997
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 1: off season. And then you have about Tavir Scott, another

998
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: young guy coming out of Clemson. Uh, you know, he's

999
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,720
Speaker 1: he's doing well and having us on special team so well.

1000
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 1: I like the depth that we have with the received musician.

1001
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 1: But as far as production, you know, uh, we have

1002
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,399
Speaker 1: a couple in that category. Those things that we're looking

1003
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,360
Speaker 1: for here with the Charges as we crank up the preseason.

1004
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 1: Thank you for your time, coach, Thank you for having

1005
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 1: me all right here with Derek Watt fullback for the

1006
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Charges. Derek, how you doing, man, I'm doing great.

1007
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me out. I appreciate it. I was

1008
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,279
Speaker 1: telling you before we started here, coming out the first

1009
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 1: day training camp, I think the whole focus of the

1010
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:41,360
Speaker 1: off season was how to get you more involved in

1011
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 1: passing games. You caught like four balls out here. Yeah,

1012
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, we we did a little bit, you know,

1013
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: adding some wrinkles into the offense throughout the O T

1014
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 1: A S and mini camp, and um we brought a

1015
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: few of them out here for the first couple of

1016
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,240
Speaker 1: days of camp, and um, you know, hope we'll see hopefully,

1017
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: you know, hopefully a few of them at least made

1018
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: it past the little trial period and make it into

1019
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: the season. But well, you know, we'll find out. Thanks

1020
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 1: for tacking some time. Yeah, thing all right, joined by

1021
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: one of the top running backs the National Football League. Mom, Gordon,

1022
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 1: how you doing? Man? Good? Man, real good? Look at

1023
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: this offense as a whole. Where are you guys at

1024
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,399
Speaker 1: right now? And just how good can this can? This group? Big?

1025
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 1: We're getting better, you know, we're getting better. We're not

1026
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: what we need to be, um, but we were making

1027
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: shots and that's the good part. We're better than we

1028
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: are day one when we came out here. So you know,

1029
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 1: we we work until where we need to be. UM.

1030
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: Obviously we still need some workers early in camp with

1031
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: the day five, day six or whatever. Um. So, but

1032
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna get there. It's a lot of times how

1033
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,840
Speaker 1: much how much a smile if you're we're gonna do

1034
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: the biggest smile in the world is a ten, and

1035
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: a frown is a one. When you saw the Todd

1036
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,120
Speaker 1: Gurley contract come through, where did that put your smile

1037
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:43,879
Speaker 1: at Levin you celebrated that one. Yeah, it was good though.

1038
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 1: It's just it's just good to see backs. You know,

1039
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 1: just just get the respect you know that they that

1040
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: we deserve. Honestly, you know, we do so much. We block,

1041
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 1: we have to catch and obviously we have to run,

1042
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 1: so we make a lot of things go. So you know,

1043
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 1: I'm glad to see you know, somebody starting it off

1044
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 1: to starting off the trending right what I love what? Hey,

1045
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 1: best of luck this year. Man. Look forward to following

1046
00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 1: this team and it should be a fun right. Oh yeah,

1047
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 1: most definitely thanks for having Thank you here with Chargers

1048
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: general manager Tom to Let's go Tom. How you doing?

1049
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: Man doing great? Now we go back to the first

1050
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: day here, we have injury with Jason Varette. I know

1051
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 1: that's just do you feel terrible for him? But how

1052
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 1: the team respond to that adversity. Really, day one on

1053
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 1: training camp here, it was, uh, it's just a good

1054
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 1: lesson how to overcome adversity because that having him get

1055
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 1: injured that first day. I mean, he's a big part

1056
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 1: of a football team. Now, he's a player, but as

1057
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: a person, great leaders, teammates love him. So when he

1058
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: went down, it was a pretty emotional scene. Um, it

1059
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 1: was tough to see, it really was. Um, but our

1060
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: players being who they are and how you have to

1061
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: be as a professional athlete. The next day I practiced,

1062
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: they're ready to go, you know, bouncing up and down

1063
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 1: and get ready to play. So um, but yeah, certainly

1064
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: was tough to see. Probably more as a person what

1065
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,399
Speaker 1: Jason means us at football wise, like we always say,

1066
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:51,920
Speaker 1: you know, we'll find a way to to move on.

1067
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: We play without Jason last year and some guy stepped up.

1068
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: Trevor Williams did a great job for us last year

1069
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 1: at corner. Desmond King played really well, So we'll we'll

1070
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: move on. Mentioned safety st when James the first round pick,

1071
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: you around Bob Sanders and it's physical freak is the

1072
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: category you put guys like that into. Are there any

1073
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: similarities you see? Obviously Derwin's a bigger package. Yeah, just

1074
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 1: just stature wise, Derwin's bigger. Bob was a pretty special

1075
00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: player when we had him in Indianapolish both in the

1076
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,440
Speaker 1: running game and the pass game. People forget that he

1077
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 1: had some interceptions too. We could cover well because you

1078
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 1: ran very well. But you know, Derwin's his own player.

1079
00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,799
Speaker 1: Everyone trying, everyone tries to compare him to somebody, which

1080
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 1: we do in the scouting circles in our own room,

1081
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 1: but you know, outside the room, you know, Derwin's his

1082
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 1: own player. Um still has a lot to learn, but

1083
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 1: he has a lot of qualities that fit that position

1084
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: in our defense, which requires a lot of responsibilities. Both

1085
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 1: in the running game and pass game. So he's just

1086
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: getting his feet wet. This would be a second day

1087
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 1: of work. Uh, he had had a minor Hampshire coming in,

1088
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:45,359
Speaker 1: so h he's got some work in front of him.

1089
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: But we're excited so far. But with what we see,

1090
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,879
Speaker 1: can Joey Bosa he can even improve? And where where

1091
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: is he at in his development? And he's playing such

1092
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,000
Speaker 1: an elite high level right now? Is there still more

1093
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: ahead of him? If you ask him that question, he'll

1094
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,760
Speaker 1: say he has a lot more to work on and develop,

1095
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,239
Speaker 1: which is a great, great thing to hear. Um, because

1096
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:03,920
Speaker 1: he loves to work. I mean that was he's physically

1097
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: physically gifted, has tremendous work ethic and he's always working

1098
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 1: on his craft. When you see him in practice here

1099
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 1: where if there's a time and practice where he's not

1100
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,439
Speaker 1: involved in a drill, he's on his own working. He's

1101
00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:18,360
Speaker 1: he's got a teammate working on hand use footwork. So um,

1102
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,920
Speaker 1: that's what you want to see from from your top players. Uh,

1103
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:23,120
Speaker 1: to to never be satisfied with where you are and

1104
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 1: we all have room to get better. And you know,

1105
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 1: Joey's still a young player in this league. Hey, thank

1106
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,400
Speaker 1: you so much for your time anytime. Thanks good luck

1107
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,600
Speaker 1: this season here was one of the top cornerbacks and

1108
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 1: National Football League Casey Hayward, case how you doing, man,

1109
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,879
Speaker 1: I'm doing pretty good. I came out here first couple

1110
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 1: of days. Look like you and Keenan got a lot

1111
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 1: of work in how much you talk about iron on

1112
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 1: a sharpening iron? How helpful is that just in that

1113
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 1: even specific matchup with you and Keenan? Uh, it's pretty good.

1114
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,359
Speaker 1: Every day we you know, try to go out hand

1115
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: and compete out of love and try to win every

1116
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 1: rep one on ones. He's been kicking my button the

1117
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,840
Speaker 1: last uh two days before that, man, he was like,

1118
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:58,879
Speaker 1: but uh, it's been very competitive. Um. I even I've

1119
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 1: been in good position on a lot of the balls.

1120
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 1: Him and Field just have this thing right now. You

1121
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: got the unfortunate injury day one there with Jason going down.

1122
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 1: How do you overcome that as a group. I know

1123
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,040
Speaker 1: you got tremendous depth there in the secondary, but how

1124
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 1: tough was that? Just they wanted to lose her brother

1125
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: out there and Jason v Rett and you know it

1126
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 1: was just hard because we know how much work he

1127
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: put in to get to the position that he was

1128
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,839
Speaker 1: coming off to a c l S and to get

1129
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 1: hurt like that, it was bigger than football for us.

1130
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: That was because the way he worked to get to

1131
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 1: that point. So prayers out to him. I think he's

1132
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 1: going in surgery soon, but prayers out to him and

1133
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: hopefully with a speedy recovery. But we do have a

1134
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 1: lot of depth. We got Trevor Williams who started for

1135
00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: us the last year, so we gotta started in Trevor,

1136
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 1: and we got some a lot of guys in the

1137
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 1: secondary that played a lot of ball, so you know,

1138
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 1: he with Jason being such a good player, we still

1139
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 1: got depth at that position because we got a lot

1140
00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: of guys that played a lot of ball back in

1141
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,839
Speaker 1: the secondary behind you. Their safety is a lot of depth,

1142
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 1: including first DRAFTI here in Derwin James, what's your message

1143
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: and your advice for him coming through his first training camp.

1144
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 1: I just try to learn the defense as well as

1145
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 1: you can, you know, because most of the time people

1146
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: hit this rookie wall and things like that. But I

1147
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 1: don't I don't get that vibe from him. He's just

1148
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 1: a smart guy, competitive guy, and I'll just to learn

1149
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 1: the defense. And when you learn that defense. Your player

1150
00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: just to start to pick up and everything and started

1151
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:23,799
Speaker 1: to slow down for you. And I think that's what

1152
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 1: he's been doing a lot, just learn this defense, and

1153
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,479
Speaker 1: you know, trying to pick the little brain he's sitting

1154
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: right in message a little in practice so to to

1155
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 1: pick his brain and get as much knowledge as possible.

1156
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you run here. I couldn't let you

1157
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 1: leave without asking about my podcast partner here and Bucky Brooks,

1158
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 1: because I feel like this was kind of the Twitter

1159
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,920
Speaker 1: beef of the offseason underrated matchup here with you and

1160
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 1: Bucky kind of going back and forth. So I'm gonna

1161
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: give you the floor. You got a Mike, you can

1162
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,399
Speaker 1: say whatever you want to hear to my partner and Bucky.

1163
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:53,400
Speaker 1: I don't got no beat for Bucky. Uh, but you know, uh,

1164
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,439
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, systems system guy versus

1165
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: start guys. I just wanted to know what was the difference.

1166
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: You know, I played him through different systems, and I've

1167
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,880
Speaker 1: been pretty good in three different systems so far, and

1168
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 1: I think I'm the star player. I don't think you

1169
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: make back to bad pro Ball to back to back

1170
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 1: All pros without being a really good player. In the

1171
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 1: Star Player. But you know, everybody got their own opinion.

1172
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,000
Speaker 1: I value anybody opinion. But sometimes when you're wrong in

1173
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: your opinions, you can come in and say I was wrong.

1174
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:19,879
Speaker 1: You got pull when you pulled him in the pristonal's office.

1175
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,839
Speaker 1: Then exactly, I'm sorry. All my people had to come

1176
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: get on you. See, that was a night. It was

1177
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 1: even an apology mixed to that for my buddy Bucky,

1178
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 1: Like this year, man, stay healthy, have a huge year,

1179
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,760
Speaker 1: and thank you very much. That was funny. That was funny.

1180
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:35,839
Speaker 1: He was great. He was great. I love going back

1181
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 1: and forth with players, and I am not one of

1182
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 1: the shots away from engaging, particularly over Twitter. Um. I

1183
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 1: think what was fascinating was he called the goons. He

1184
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 1: brought in Jalen Rams and they came on top rope.

1185
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 1: I saw DeShawn Watson weigh in a little bit, Sean.

1186
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 1: I didn't see the Sean jumping everybody. Everybody body came.

1187
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:59,759
Speaker 1: It was a free fraud. Look were going crazy. I

1188
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: think the interesting thing, um, when it comes to players,

1189
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 1: and all players kind of feel this way. Um, the

1190
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: overwhelming majority of players in the National Football League are

1191
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:10,800
Speaker 1: system players. They need to be in the right scheme

1192
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 1: to really enhance their talents. They're only a handful of

1193
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,760
Speaker 1: transcended guys that can play in any system, and Casey

1194
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 1: Hayward is right. Look, he's been a Pro Bowl player. Um,

1195
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: He's played at a high level and multiple systems under

1196
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 1: multiple defensive coordinators and has success. I think the thing

1197
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,280
Speaker 1: that goes to it from a personnel standpoint, a personnel

1198
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: man standpoint is when you look at a player, do

1199
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 1: you believe you could drop him in any system and

1200
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: that guy have elite success or propol color success. I

1201
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,400
Speaker 1: don't know. When I look at his game, he is

1202
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:43,919
Speaker 1: an outstanding see ball get ball defender, does a great

1203
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: job of getting his hands on the ball, and he

1204
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:47,719
Speaker 1: is in the system now where he is able to

1205
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 1: clue the quarterback and do some things. He bails, he

1206
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:52,799
Speaker 1: plays off, and Gus Bradley has said that he is

1207
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 1: the perfect prototypical field corner in that defense. I think

1208
00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:57,960
Speaker 1: he's in a great system. I think it's terrific player.

1209
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,040
Speaker 1: We'll see how it ends up. I'd be fun to

1210
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 1: watch it. He was a great dude though. He was

1211
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 1: super smart, always respects smart credit, incredibly intelligent. So I'll

1212
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 1: get I'll get a chance to know him a little

1213
00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,360
Speaker 1: bit more this year doing all the doing all these

1214
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 1: charging games. But speaking of beefs, this is not the

1215
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 1: only beef that existed here. That beef was created in

1216
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,560
Speaker 1: the offseason. There's another beef that's been years in the making.

1217
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,319
Speaker 1: It there's no signs of its slowing down. And this is, uh,

1218
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 1: this is an example of that beef. Buck. It's it's

1219
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: the podcast beef, It's the Move the Sticks podcast, it's

1220
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 1: the Around the NFL podcast. And the other day out

1221
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,759
Speaker 1: at Chargers Camp, I was out there as well as

1222
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: one of the less tall members of the Around the NFL,

1223
00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:34,399
Speaker 1: and this is some of the interaction that took place there.

1224
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,359
Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal from Around the NFL is here with us

1225
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: as well, and your second favorite podcast by the second

1226
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,080
Speaker 1: favorite podcast. Indeed, we don't have to get into that

1227
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 1: for you just yet, Greg, But I know nobody separates

1228
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: winners and losers better than you, and I know you've

1229
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 1: got the early winners and losers from training camp. How

1230
00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,320
Speaker 1: about how about some winners. I want winners? Greg, what

1231
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:55,799
Speaker 1: do you got? Well? One winner is our podcast. It

1232
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,839
Speaker 1: is better than DJ's podcast. But I'm gonna start, Well,

1233
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: that's a lot of great information there from Greig, But

1234
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 1: I got where is Mark Sessor? I was told the

1235
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 1: star of the Around the NFL podcast was gonna be

1236
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 1: here today, And I can't find Mark Sessler anywhere. A

1237
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,000
Speaker 1: winner winner, but you have losers, Gregg, because for every winner,

1238
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 1: there is a loser. Well, there you go, Buck. I mean,

1239
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,359
Speaker 1: they tell me that there's gonna be a representative from

1240
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:19,879
Speaker 1: that podcast, and it was gonna be a big name,

1241
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 1: and Mark Sessor was Greg Rosenthal was there. Yeah, seriously,

1242
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 1: that's a big name. Really is that we're going with?

1243
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 1: I guess all right? Never at least it wasn't Hansas

1244
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 1: sent him. It could have been worse. I guess um.

1245
00:52:34,920 --> 00:52:36,839
Speaker 1: Big takeaways though, just from being out there and seeing

1246
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 1: that Chargers team, specifically, any takeaways their expectations for that

1247
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: team for the year. Wife Receiver Corp. I think the

1248
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,759
Speaker 1: wife Receiver Corps is terrific. I think our own nip

1249
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: Borlson said they may have the number one escorting to Nate,

1250
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 1: number one wife receiver Corps and all the football. I'm

1251
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:51,319
Speaker 1: not quite ready to go on that limb, but I

1252
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: do think they can cause problems their size and the

1253
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 1: ability to kind of throw a bunch of different guys

1254
00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 1: out there. To Williams, you have Mike Williams, you have

1255
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen, but then the gas Travis juice to speed.

1256
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 1: They can come at you a bunch of different ways.

1257
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,200
Speaker 1: They lose hunt of Henry, but it may be a

1258
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 1: blessing this guys. They may go more ten personnel, one back,

1259
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: four receivers could be problems. And actually Derek Watt they're

1260
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 1: getting the fullback involve a little bit more. You speak

1261
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 1: a John Gruden old school football, having a fullback out there,

1262
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:21,760
Speaker 1: one of the better ones in the NFL. So it'd

1263
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 1: be fun team to watch here with the Chargers, I'll

1264
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 1: have up close vantage point there as we go through

1265
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:27,800
Speaker 1: the season, so I'm sure I'll keep your breast of

1266
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,520
