Will Terry McLaurin 5 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,600 Speaker 1: be back for Washington, and what is going to happen 6 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: with Brian Robinson Junior. 7 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 2: We will tell you everything we know. 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: We will also talk about some of these guys justin Fields, 9 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: Davante Adams, maybe even some of those other commanders receivers 10 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,880 Speaker 1: like Deebo Samuel who could be the sleepers in your 11 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: fantasy draft. Michael f Florio will be here with answers, 12 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: as always, have a lot us have a conversation with 13 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: a guy who has laid a few hits during his 14 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 1: time in the NFL with multiple teams. Mac Wilson, Cardinals linebacker. 15 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: What is the latest in Arizona? What are their chances 16 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: in that. 17 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: Ed FC West? We'll ask him. 18 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: Welcome inside with the insiders alongside Ian Rappaport, Judy Batista 19 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: and Mike Garafolo. I am Tom Pelicero. We are fifteen 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: days away from kickoff in the NFL. 21 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: We got trades happening within the past hour. 22 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: We've got tons of news to get to, but let's 23 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: start out with one of those teams in the kickoff game, 24 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: that is the Dallas Cowboys, who overarching storyline through the 25 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: course of training camp in the preseason has been the 26 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: one guy who was participating in basically none of it. 27 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons, still awaiting a new contract, has not practiced, 28 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: has said that he's dealing with backsreis the times, has 29 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: not been on the field. But when asked today if 30 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: he's still confident about having Michael Parsons out there week one, 31 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer said this. 32 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: Because I think at the end of the day, we 33 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: feel like Mike is going to be out there when 34 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 3: we line up against Philadelphia here in fifteen days or 35 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: whatever it is. And you know, so no answers, Yeah, 36 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 3: I feel good about that. 37 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 38 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 3: I think my tone hasn't changed, my answer hasn't really changed. 39 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 3: I'm focused on the field, I'm focused on the guys 40 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 3: that are working in the business side of it's going 41 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: to take care of itself. And but no, I mean 42 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 3: I could answer those questions. 43 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 5: All day long. 44 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: So let's whine this for a second here, Ian, because 45 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: we know this Michael Parsons is under contract for the 46 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five season. He has not practiced because he 47 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: says he's got backswortus. It's an elaborate hold in of 48 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: sorts here. There's no new contract, there's no not even 49 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: communication about a new contract. Are the Cowboys really expecting 50 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: Micah is simply going to eventually show up on the 51 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: field and be out there come that Thursday night opener. 52 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 6: Michael Parsons has been on the field. 53 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 7: He's just been on the sideline, sometimes sitting, sometimes standing, 54 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 7: sometimes slowly walking. He's nursing that back injury that he 55 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 7: has had the entire training camp, a nagging back injury. 56 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 7: It is important to note Micah Parsons is trying to 57 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 7: get himself ready to play. He has not practiced yet. 58 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 7: We've been talking about the Terry McLaurin situation. McLaurin faces 59 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 7: the ten day ramp up just to get on the 60 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 7: practice Micah Parsons hasn't even begun the ramp up to 61 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 7: get on the practice field yet. So for the Dallas 62 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 7: Cowboys of Brian Schottenheimer and I certainly understand why he 63 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 7: has continued to focus on the field and somehow, some 64 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 7: way try to remain optimistic. 65 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 6: But Micah hasn't even practiced yet. 66 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 7: Let alone set foot on and gone full speed, let 67 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 7: alone think about trying to play Game one. He also, 68 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 7: I should note, has requested to be traded. Yes, if 69 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 7: he had to somehow play and he was physically ready, 70 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 7: then he would play. 71 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 6: But he has also requested to be traded. 72 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 7: Cowboys have showed no indication that they are going anywhere 73 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 7: toward a long term deal, So I get it. 74 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 6: We're pretty far away from that right now, Brian. 75 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 8: I mean, it's a head coach sort of optimism, right 76 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 8: You always got to kind of keep it optimistic, especially 77 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 8: when you've got a player of this magnitude that hasn't 78 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 8: been on the field for you during training camp. But 79 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 8: he's not hearing anything from the player's side because I 80 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 8: don't gather anything change there. 81 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: Ian. 82 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 8: You talked about the Cowboys unwillingness to go unless Jerry 83 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 8: Jones tell him I'm gonna do the deal in like 84 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 8: five days. 85 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 9: Let's just stretch this out. Don't worry. 86 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: He'll have plenty of. 87 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 9: Time in press, which he may have. 88 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 2: He may have and they may have. 89 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 8: Said that behind closed doors, but there's no indication that 90 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 8: that is going to be the case, and these negotiations 91 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 8: are all of a sudden, you gonna kick start and 92 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 8: something's gonna get done that quickly. So Brian Schottenhnheimer's confidence 93 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 8: may be unfounded, but at this point, as a head coach, 94 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 8: you gotta figure and you gotta hope for the best 95 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 8: possible scenario. And the best possible scenario is that guy 96 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,559 Speaker 8: playing in Week one against the Eagles in his home state. 97 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: We'll see. 98 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 10: Well, a head coach saying he feels confident that a 99 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 10: player is going to play in the opener certainly risks 100 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 10: a level of embarrassment if that player does not show 101 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 10: up in the opener. So at the very least, he 102 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 10: has to be confident that Michael Parsons is not going 103 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 10: to hold out if there is no new contract in 104 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 10: the next two and a half weeks. Either that or, 105 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 10: as you said, I mean, did Jerry Jones tell him, Hey, listen, 106 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 10: there's going to be a deal done in the next 107 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 10: two weeks. 108 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: Don't worry about it. 109 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 10: He's gonna be there. 110 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 4: I don't know. 111 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 2: It's very unusual though. 112 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 10: You know that, but the head coach has to be 113 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 10: optimistic and has to talk about the rest of the 114 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 10: team and we're just proceeding as if it's business as usual. 115 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 10: But for him to say I feel confidence he's going 116 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 10: to be there week one certainly suggests that he has 117 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 10: been given an indication from somebody that Michael Parsons will 118 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 10: be on the field new contract or no new contract. 119 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: Well, I'll say this, Michael Parsons and Brian Shotneimer have 120 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: had an open dialogue between the two of them. Where 121 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: there's not an open dialogue is between Jerry Jones and 122 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons agent David Mulageda, who not only let's your 123 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: itierate has not gotten any sort of offer in writing. 124 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: He has never talked to the Cowboys to try to 125 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: negotiate a contract here. So we could point the Ceedee 126 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: Lamb getting done right about this time last year. We 127 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: could talk about Dak Prescott getting done on game day. 128 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 2: Those were months of talks. There are no. 129 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: Talks here, and so ultimately the player has to make 130 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: a decision to hold in. I'llso remind you of this 131 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: not a real thing. You could get fined, they could 132 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: take away game checks. 133 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: There's a lot of different levers they can poll. 134 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: Still fifty days now until that opener The same applies 135 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: to Terry McLaurin in Washington, who recently came off the 136 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: physically unable to perform list, has not actually practiced, but 137 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: is in the process right now of what the coaching 138 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: staff has referred to as the ramp up period. 139 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 2: He did not practice once again today. 140 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: Neither did Brian Robinson, the running back who has been 141 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: the subject of. 142 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 2: Trade talks, and Dan Quinn. 143 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say DQ might be getting 144 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,679 Speaker 1: a little bit sick of talking to about the storyline. 145 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 11: I'm not gonna play Where's Waldo? 146 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 4: Guys? 147 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 11: All right? Moving forward, So just so we're clear on that. 148 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 11: So Terry's return to play format is no different than 149 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 11: any of the other players. He's healthy, which is now 150 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 11: a good step to like getting closer to being back 151 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 11: on the field. So you'll see that earlier then later. 152 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 11: I don't have a date circled on my white boredom 153 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 11: my office this day for him, this day for him, 154 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 11: But you know the good news, we're getting closer to 155 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 11: that for sure. 156 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: Does not seem like they're getting closer to a contract 157 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: at this point. Far made from me Ian to give 158 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 1: advice to Terry mclaurin's agent buddy makerhon negotiated a contract. 159 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: I would make one suggestion though, tomorrow, have Terry show 160 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: up red and white striped sweater, stocking cap, just wandering 161 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: around the perimeter of the. 162 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: Field and see what happens. What do you think? 163 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 7: Yeah, I definitely think one thing the situation needs is 164 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 7: to be escalated again. I think that last time this 165 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 7: happened when McLaurin showed up was signing autographs with his 166 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 7: agent next to him, it definitely did a lot of 167 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 7: really good things for their relationship and send the negotiations 168 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 7: in a place where everybody wants, which is for a 169 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 7: deal getting done. Terry mclaurran is getting ready to play football. 170 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 7: He is expected to practice at some point before the season. Also, 171 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 7: by the way, has requested a trader, though it doesn't 172 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 7: really seem like the team has gone anywhere toward making 173 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 7: that happen a lot of times in these situations. When 174 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 7: a player steps on the field at practice and begins 175 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 7: to look like someone ready to play football, that is 176 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 7: when contract extension talks really kid kicking the gear wants 177 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 7: to make the thirty three million dollars of dk metcalp 178 00:07:58,800 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 7: the team has offered less. 179 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 6: There is room there for compromise. 180 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 7: We're just getting to the point where it compromise has 181 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 7: to happen so we can actually play. 182 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 8: I don't think Ian got the Waldough joke there, Tom, 183 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 8: but I did, Judy did as well, everybody in the 184 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 8: control room and everybody at home watching. 185 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 2: Dude, I got it. 186 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 9: Also, it did not go to waste. 187 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 8: I'm not so sure elsewhere on the Washington commanders and 188 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 8: the drama surrounding the team. We're talking about Brian Robinson, 189 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 8: who remains out of practice, remains away from the team 190 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 8: at this point. I mean, it's pretty clear he's probably 191 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,599 Speaker 8: put on that uniform or any practice uniform for the 192 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 8: last time. There are teams that are interested that have 193 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 8: had talks with the commanders. From my understanding, the problem 194 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 8: is at this time of year, it's tough to do. 195 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 8: Like if this happened in March at the beginning of 196 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 8: the league year, I think Brian Robinson gets traded pretty quickly, 197 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 8: and he's got himself a number of teams that still 198 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 8: have holes. You don't have that right now, and you've 199 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 8: got to figure out the financials. So that's part of 200 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 8: the discussion as well as Washington gonna have to take 201 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 8: on some money to facilitate a deal because a lot 202 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 8: of teams don't have the budget right now out for. 203 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 9: Three four million dollars. 204 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 8: At least they'll tell you they don't have the budget 205 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 8: for three point four million dollars. 206 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 9: So this continues to go on. I'd expect the resolution sometime. 207 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 8: The next couple of days, perhaps, if not, going to 208 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 8: have to cut him if they are intent on not 209 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 8: having won on the roster greet. 210 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 10: You know, this team was so far ahead of schedule 211 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 10: last season, right, they get all the way to the 212 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 10: NFC Championship Game. They did so much this offseason to 213 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 10: get to make that final push to get over the 214 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 10: hump to get to the Super Bowl. But there's an 215 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 10: awful lot of stuff circulating around this team now with 216 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 10: two weeks until the opener. Right, you've got the McLaurin situation, 217 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 10: You've got the Brian Robinson situation. The offensive line is 218 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 10: still a little bit of a jumble that hasn't really 219 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 10: been settled in. There's a lot of questions about like 220 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 10: who's emerging as the number three receiver here while McLaurin 221 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 10: hasn't even been on the field. So for a team 222 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 10: that has such high expectations and. 223 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 2: So much talent. 224 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 10: There's just an awful lot of murkiness that you'd like 225 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 10: to see get cleared up in the next next week 226 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 10: or sos that they can go full steam ahead into 227 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 10: the season. 228 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons has requested a trade. Terry McLaurin is requested 229 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: a trade. Neither of those guys yet been traded. You 230 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: know who has Harrison Phillips, the Vikings nose tackle just 231 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: minutes before the show officially shipped off to the New 232 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: York Jets. It is a twenty twenty six and twenty 233 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: twenty seven sixth round pick going to the Vikings. They 234 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: sent Harrison Phillips and a seven round pick in twenty 235 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: twenty seven to New York. They also take half of 236 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: Harrison Phillips's salary off the books at a time. The Quasia, 237 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: Dopo Mensa, and the front office are also in the 238 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: market to bring a receiver to Minnesota. We know they 239 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: got Justin Jefferson back on the field. He's been dealing 240 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: with a hamstring injury. Good to go for Week one, 241 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: but Jalen Naylor is banged up. Jordan Addison is suspended 242 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: for the first three games of the season. 243 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 2: Ian They have been making. 244 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: Phone calls around the NFL at this point, I'd be 245 00:10:55,720 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: surprised if the Vikings don't acquire a veteran receiver. Free 246 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: agent would also be an opportunity here. It would be 247 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: a surprising if they don't add at that position. The 248 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: real question now is who. 249 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 7: Right and they are not alone, by the way, and 250 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,599 Speaker 7: teams looking for It's not like you're gonna go find me. 251 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 7: You're not gonna find it justin Jefferson anyway. But it's 252 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 7: not like you're even gonna go find a Jordan Addison. 253 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 7: Those guys, they'll, due respect to the list we showed 254 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 7: right there, don't really exist right now. 255 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 6: I mean, Amari Cooper has not signed. 256 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 7: Gabe Davis has done visits, has also not signed. What 257 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 7: teams you're really looking for now, as far as I 258 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 7: could tell, is fourth and fifth receivers. You got teams 259 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 7: like the Jaguars are looking for one, the Jets are 260 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 7: looking for one. There's several teams that are in the 261 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 7: market for fourth fifth receivers, guys who can play special teams. 262 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 7: We'll see if they can find them. A lot of 263 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 7: times it's a player room might get cut for another 264 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 7: playerroom might get cut, Judy, this is the kind of 265 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 7: currency we're talking about this time of year. 266 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, Jerry Rice is not walking through that door for 267 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 10: a team like the Jets that you know has Garrett 268 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 10: Wilson obviously as number one, and then okay, there's a 269 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 10: pretty good drop off there to number and beyond. It's 270 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 10: really hard to find somebody at that level at this 271 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 10: point in the year, and it's even harder to integrate them. 272 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 10: They spend all off season getting quarterbacks and wide receivers 273 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 10: onto the same page, getting their rhythm right, learning what 274 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 10: each other likes to do in an offense. To expect 275 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 10: that you're going to get somebody who can just drop 276 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 10: in and make a significant difference this late in the 277 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 10: off season, Boy, that really is a stretch, Mike. 278 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 8: There are a few teams that feel good about their 279 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 8: receiver depth that are going to be looking to see 280 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 8: if some of these teams are willing to pull the 281 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 8: trigger on a deal before final cut, before they have. 282 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: To make some tough decisions. Ian and I were up 283 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: in New England. 284 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 8: That's one of the areas on the roster that is 285 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 8: really deep, and they've got some veterans there, so I 286 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 8: know they've had some conversations and that could be a 287 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 8: team that we can keep our eye on as we 288 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 8: get closer elsewhere. Today we had some news on the 289 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 8: quarterback front, and we talk about trading receivers. There was 290 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 8: talk and some chatter, just like Jameis Winston a couple 291 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 8: of days ago with the Giants and that we're keeping him. 292 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 8: There was talking chatter about what the Bears trade away 293 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 8: Tyson Bagent, and they said, no, we've got a young 294 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 8: backup quarterback that we really like that we think can 295 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 8: develop under Ben Johnson. Hopefully we don't need him because 296 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 8: Kayleb Williams is our quarterback now in forever. But they 297 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 8: show the value that they have in Beijing today with 298 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 8: a two year, ten million dollar extension for Bagent, who 299 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 8: would have been a restricted free agent at the end 300 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 8: of the season. This was an emotional moment for beagent, 301 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 8: as you could see right here. 302 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think that you know, a lot of people 303 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 12: don't know this, but you know, my dad is my 304 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 12: he's my right hand man, and he didn't he didn't 305 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 12: have running water until he was in high school. So 306 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 12: there's definitely a lot of things that and people that 307 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 12: I could that I think I could certainly help with 308 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 12: this gift up and blessed with. But yeah, just little 309 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 12: things like that. You know, I don't really know anybody 310 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:02,839 Speaker 12: back at home with any money. 311 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 4: So yeah, it feels good. 312 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 12: I mean it's certainly a weight, uh weight off my 313 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 12: shoulders and my family shoulders, and yeah, it definitely means 314 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 12: a lot. 315 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 4: There we go. 316 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 13: One more time, y'all know what time it is.

This season, the Browns have had the 480 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 15: worst quarterback play in many metrics since twenty twenty two. 481 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 15: And that doesn't matter because in twenty twenty three they 482 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 15: made the playoffs and that's because of their number one 483 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 15: scoring defense. When you look at this team, they're going 484 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 15: to have to face Lamar Joe Burrow Aaron Rodgers in 485 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 15: their division twice this season. Their defense is gonna need 486 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 15: to be what keeps them afloat. And we know Miles 487 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 15: Garrett is good. He signed that contract extension this offseason. 488 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 15: He had fourteen sacks, second in the league last season. 489 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 15: But it's their secondary that I'm gonna be watching this 490 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 15: Saturday in the preseason game.

Good news though Newsom is 493 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 15: back on the practice field. They're starting to ramp him up. 494 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 15: And in terms of Denzel Ward, coach Kevin Stefanski was 495 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 15: asked about him today guys, and he said that he's 496 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 15: day to day and we might see him back on 497 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 15: the field very soon. 498 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 16: Yeah, that defense is still has the potential to be 499 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 16: light outed in the Jim Schwartz. But it comes down 500 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 16: to the quarterback play and even though they named Joe 501 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 16: Flacco the starter, my concern will be who is the backup? 502 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 16: Is it Kenny Pickett shoulder saying is Dylan Gabriel? Which 503 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 16: one of those guys is going to emerge? And literally 504 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 16: we will find out the way this plays out in 505 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 16: Game three. Kenny Pickett hasn't been a available, Dalli gabl A, 506 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 16: Shadur Sand has played a game a piece, respectively. Someone 507 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 16: has to win this backup job because it is look, 508 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 16: it is malpractice to go into the season thinking that 509 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 16: Joe Flacco is going to play each and every game. 510 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 5: You need to have a backup. 511 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 16: Plan, but right now those plans are shaky given the 512 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 16: inexperience in the injuries that a plague in the position. 513 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 10: Well, we do know that Joe Flacco is going to 514 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 10: play in the preseason finale, Kenny Pickett is not, which 515 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 10: means he will not have played in the preseason at all. 516 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 10: And we don't know if Shadora is going to play 517 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 10: in the preseason finale. So they're right, Bucky, it is 518 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 10: going to come all the way down to the wire 519 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 10: about who is going to be the backup quarterback. All right, 520 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 10: let's turn to the Rams because there was a little 521 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 10: bit of quarterback drama there about Matthew Stafford and his 522 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 10: back bridget He did return to practice this week. Where 523 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 10: do things stand with Matthew Stafford. 524 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 15: Yeah, Judy, good signs for the Ramses. He was back 525 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 15: on the practice field today. That means three days in 526 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 15: a row. Of course, today was just a walk through, 527 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 15: but positive news for this Rams team. It's unlikely we'll 528 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 15: see Matthew Stafford on the field Saturday against the Browns, 529 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 15: and that's not because of his back injury. Of course 530 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 15: that adds to it, but Sean McVay typically does not 531 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 15: play his starter, So don't be concerned if you don't 532 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 15: see Matthew Stafford out there. I know a lot of 533 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 15: people are wondering, well, what about his connection with Devonte Adams. 534 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 15: This is the first week that we've seen the two 535 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 15: of them in pads making a connection. All signs point 536 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 15: to that chemistry being there. He's picked back up with 537 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 15: that chemistry with Puka Nakua as well. And look, guys, 538 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 15: everything I'm told is if he had to play today, 539 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 15: he could play. But he's thirty seven years old, he's 540 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 15: in his seventeenth NFL season. 541 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 2: They want to. 542 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 15: Make sure he is as healthy as possible week one. 543 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 15: The question going forward, Tom, Judy and Bucky is how 544 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 15: is he going to look after Week one, after he 545 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 15: plays the Texans, after he gets hit. That's going to 546 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 15: be the question mark. 547 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, huge question mark. 548 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 16: The chemistry with Devanta Adams and Puquin Nakula that could 549 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 16: be worked out on the practice field, but the Rams 550 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 16: need to have the chemistry with the number two quarterback 551 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 16: up and going, and that's Jimmy Garoppolo. 552 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 5: The thing about Jimmy Garopolo, I must say. 553 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 16: Having watched the joint practice with the Rams against the 554 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 16: Dallas Cowboys, he was on point. 555 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 5: Sean McVay controls the pen. 556 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 16: He's a masterful schemer, and so if Jimmy Garoppolo has 557 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 16: to play very optimistic that he can have success because 558 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 16: Sean McVay will make sure that the Xison owes online 559 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 16: to give Jimmy Garoppolo success. But let's be real about 560 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 16: this Rams team. This Rams team is loaded on offense 561 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 16: and on defense. Offensively, they have the ability to run 562 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 16: the football to offset some of the things that may 563 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 16: take place with the quarterback. And then we talked about 564 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 16: those weapons on the outside, DeVonta Adams pukinga cool. 565 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 5: They have others that can contribute. 566 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 16: This team will be fine regards of who is playing 567 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 16: quarterback because Sean McVay has the pending. 568 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 4: He'll always make it right. 569 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 2: Bridget, thank you. We will see you Saturday. 570 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: To be clear ahead of that Browns Rams game, Bucky 571 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: Judy stick around, but first. 572 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 8: High Mike, Hello Tom, Hello Buccaneers injuries. 573 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 2: This is not ideal. Right. 574 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 8: You want to go into the season feeling great, feeling healthy, 575 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 8: the health he'll be all year. That's not going to 576 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 8: be the case for the Buccaneers that godwin one. I'm 577 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 8: still trying to get an answer on whether Week one 578 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,719 Speaker 8: is possible or likely for him getting a lot of 579 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 8: we'll sees when it comes to that, you get Works 580 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 8: on the pup list, the Jalen McMillan one. Yeah, he's 581 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 8: going to miss more than the start of the season. 582 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 8: That's looking like from what I'm told, six to eight 583 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 8: weeks to start the season. They've got a week nine bye, 584 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 8: so perhaps after that. But Sarah Wat's going to be 585 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 8: here to sort this all out along with Brian Baldinger. Sarah, 586 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 8: I go to you because you know that's not what 587 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 8: you want to see heading into week one? 588 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 9: Is there concern down in Tampa right now? 589 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 17: Look, Mike, I don't want to say that they're pushing 590 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 17: the panic button, but you just saw that list of names. 591 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 17: There's definitely cause for concern. And let me just give 592 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 17: you the context here. I mean, this is a Buccaneers 593 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 17: team that the narrative this whole offseason was everyone's returning, 594 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 17: and now we're enging closer to that week when starting. 595 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 17: There's some pretty big names that are not out there 596 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 17: right now for Tampa Bay. Tristan Works is obviously the biggest, 597 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 17: most notable name because obviously he is charged with protecting 598 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 17: Baker made Field's blind side. We know that he is 599 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 17: not going to be back for week one. The positive, 600 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 17: if there is a positive, in that they have known 601 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 17: this for the last month, so they have been making 602 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 17: preparations that they are going to be without Tristan Works 603 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 17: to start here, Chris Godwin, you just mentioned Tim. It's 604 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 17: not believed he will be back for week one. We 605 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 17: don't have an exact timetable other than they say that 606 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 17: he's on track without really giving us anything firm on that. 607 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 17: The big surprise or really because it just unfolded, Jalen 608 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 17: McMillan now expected to miss significant time after hurting his 609 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 17: neck in that preseason game, that last preseason game. So 610 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 17: the Buccaneers without two of their top three receivers, which 611 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 17: means they're going to rely on Mike Evans and they're 612 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 17: going to have to rely on the rookie of Mecca Buka. 613 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 17: I just spoke to their new offensive coordinator, Josh Brazzard, 614 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 17: and I said, look, you have to go to Atlanta 615 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,479 Speaker 17: for Week once, the first game that you're ever going 616 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 17: to call as an offensive coordinator. Now you're going to 617 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 17: be not doing that at full strength. And he said, 618 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 17: if you want to look at the bright side, he's 619 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 17: got reps and having to plug and play guys last 620 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,159 Speaker 17: year as the passing coordinators that those are not baldy 621 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 17: the kind of reps you want, but we know what 622 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 17: it's like to have to piece together a game plan. 623 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 17: They were without Mike at times last year, so that 624 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 17: is what Bizarre is going to have to do. 625 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 18: Sarah, let me just get bold here, just bold. I 626 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 18: mean they're going to go to Atlanta without their best 627 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 18: player and that's Tristan Worfs and there is no replacement 628 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 18: of Tristan Worfs. Now they're also going to go up 629 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 18: and Atlanta hasn't shown anything in preseason, but jeff Ulbrick 630 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 18: is a quality defensive coordinator, and they really haven't shown 631 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 18: what they're going to do, what the plan is, what 632 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 18: it's going to look like. 633 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 4: They've added some pieces. 634 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 18: You can go out and see some of the rookie 635 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 18: pass rushers at Atlanta, but Jeff Olbrick could be a 636 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 18: little surprised to Josh Grizzard and to Baker Mayfield and 637 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 18: what they tried to do. 638 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 4: Now, last year they were two shootouts. 639 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 18: Kirk Cousins, you know, through eight touchdowns in eight or 640 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 18: eight hundred yards in these two games. So we know 641 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 18: that that's not going to happen with Michael Pennix here. 642 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 18: But those probably the two best games that Cousins played 643 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 18: against this Tampa defense. So those are a couple of 644 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 18: things I'm looking at, you know, here from Tampa's offense 645 00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 18: and what they have to think about right now. 646 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 7: And by the way, let me just add guys you 647 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 7: mentioned and Sarah mentioned some of the injuries. Christian is, 648 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 7: in my understanding, is not expected also to be on 649 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 7: the field. 650 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 6: Week one, dealing with a have an oblique. 651 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 7: Injury about a four so weak injuries, So probably misses 652 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 7: week one, week two, we'll see if he's one of 653 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 7: those that starts the year on ir Buck Baldy. 654 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 6: I want to go to you. 655 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 7: I want to talk about their opponent, the Atlanta Falcons. 656 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 7: You're a little bullish once't you tell me what you 657 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 7: think about the Falcons? 658 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 4: Well, i'spend a day. 659 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,239 Speaker 18: Well, I mean one day doesn't mean anything, right, we 660 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 18: were all out there in Flowery Mound and so we 661 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 18: got a chance to see him, see what Raheem is doing. 662 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,239 Speaker 2: Look, I know people are having their fantasy drafts right now. 663 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 18: Ian, Like, if you don't take Drake London as you 664 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 18: receiving number one, you're crazy every single pass I saw 665 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 18: in an entire two and a half hour practice where 666 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,719 Speaker 18: Michael Pennix went to Drake London, he caught one hit 667 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 18: in the passes. He caught passes in a slot, he 668 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 18: caught passes in the red zone. I mean, the ball 669 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 18: goes to him and if it's not going to hit, 670 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 18: the running the ball really well. This offense line basically 671 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 18: returns intact Drew Dolman, who was injured the second half 672 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 18: of the season. They come back with the same five 673 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 18: up front. They've extended some guys the right tackle McGarry's 674 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 18: extended and they can flat out run it. And so 675 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 18: maybe if you're a fantasy draft maybe you're thinking Vjon. 676 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 18: I think I'm saying his name right here, Ian, I 677 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 18: think you'd probably take Vjon right here with one of 678 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 18: the top three picks, like. 679 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 4: He's going to get fed. 680 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 18: And they could be very dynamic offensively because one thing 681 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 18: Michael Pennix Junior has is he's got a big arm 682 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 18: and he's not afraid to show it off and get 683 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 18: it down the field where those chunk explosive plays on 684 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 18: offense and. 685 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 17: Baldy you brought up Cale McGary and we were talking 686 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 17: about Tristan Wurks and the absence of him, mc gary 687 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 17: was carted off practice today. My understanding by Falcons is 688 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 17: that they are waiting the results of an MRI on him, 689 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 17: but that could potentially be huge for the Falcons because 690 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 17: he's the right tackle that protects Penix the lefties blind side. 691 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 17: That could be a real big problem for this Falcons seam. 692 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 17: That also, by the way, their backup tackle Storm Norton 693 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 17: just underwent ankle surgery, so Key's out. So the Falcons 694 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 17: are keeping their fingers crossed on McGarry in the situation 695 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 17: that unfolded today. As for Pennix, that he is not 696 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 17: going to get any preseason game reps. His offensive coordinator 697 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 17: Zach Robinson said, look, when he played in college, he 698 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 17: didn't have an exhibition game to get ready, and they 699 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 17: feel like they've given him enough looks against the Falcons defense. 700 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 17: Those looks that he would see in a preseason game, 701 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 17: they said, are more vanilla. But I was up in 702 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 17: Atlanta a couple of days ago, their GM Terry Foutno, 703 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 17: told me you everyone talks about Penix's big arm. 704 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 6: He was talking to me about. 705 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 17: His eyes and he said he's been so impressed with 706 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 17: his vision, his ability to see what's going on around him. 707 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 17: But of course, right now I'll focus on what's going 708 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 17: on with that Falcons offensive line. 709 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 8: Yep, come on, everybody, get healthy. There's too much injury talk. 710 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 8: We want to see these teams at full strength right 711 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 8: out of the gate. We'll see how many of these 712 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 8: guys weaking. It's all good, Sarah, you know you got 713 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 8: you gotta give them the truth. 714 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: Tons of NFL preseason action coming up on NFL Network. 715 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 2: All starts out. 716 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: Tomorrow night with these Steelers against the Panthers. You got 717 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: Falcons and Cowboys on Friday, and then it is another 718 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: quadruple aheader beginning with the Browns, perhaps the return of 719 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: the Shore. 720 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 2: Sanders show up against the. 721 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: Rams, Packers, Seahawks, Jaguars, Dolphins, Cardinals, Raiders. Catch it all 722 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: from start to finish on Saturday, right here on NFL Network. 723 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 1: Time out to get some fantasy advice from our guy 724 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: Michael F. Florio, who helped me through my draft last night, 725 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 1: which I greatly appreciate here, but only now do we 726 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: get Florio some of your sleepers. Let's start out with 727 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: somebody you like at the quarterback position. 728 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 19: I love Drake May and I've been talking him up 729 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 19: since last year. The fantasy community is starting to catch 730 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 19: on now, so he's going a little bit more price 731 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 19: year than what he would have went for a couple 732 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 19: months ago. But there's not a throw he cannot make. 733 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 19: And I expect him to run more because last year 734 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 19: then head coached on Mayo said he can run. We 735 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 19: just asked him not to because of the circumstances of 736 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 19: the season. But he has that special playmaker gene that 737 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 19: I think separates like good quarterbacks from great quarterbacks and 738 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 19: really high ceiling. But even with him going more expensive 739 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 19: than he like I expected, he's still just a QB two. 740 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 5: So a lot of upside to be had with Drake May. 741 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 7: And if you're in a keeper lake, this is the 742 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 7: absolute perfect time to grab him. I would also agree, 743 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 7: by the way, having him run a little bit might 744 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 7: be the key to unlocking all the playmaking ability for 745 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 7: Drake May. Sounds like he had a really really good 746 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 7: training camp. Okay, let's make a switch. Give me a 747 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 7: running back option here for you. 748 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 19: Let's go to Dallas, right, there's no shortage of news 749 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 19: coming out of Dallas. 750 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: But I think Jayden. 751 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 5: Blue is a big sleeper there. 752 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 19: He's fast, and he is shifty, and he is really 753 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 19: good hands as a receiver out of the backfield. And 754 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 19: when I was preparing for the NFL Draft, I kept thinking, 755 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 19: this guy, if he hits, he reminds me. 756 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 5: Of what like CJ. Spiller once was. 757 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 19: And his competition is Javontin Williams, who has struggled as 758 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 19: a runner ever since he hurt his knee, and pass 759 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 19: game volume has really propped him up, but last season 760 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 19: fourth lowess yards per target amongst all running backs. So 761 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 19: lou brings a lot of upside on a Cowboys team 762 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 19: that has running back work up for grabs. 763 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 5: And the best part. 764 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 19: Is he is explosive enough that he doesn't need twenty touches. 765 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 19: You can give him twelve to fifteen and he could 766 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 19: still hit in fantasy because he'll probably have a couple 767 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 19: of big plays. 768 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 8: All right, Florida, when we went to break, we saw 769 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 8: a receiver in DK Metcalf that is making over thirty 770 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 8: million dollars per year. That does not count as a sleeper. 771 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 8: You better not mention him. So give me a sleeper 772 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 8: at the receiver position making. 773 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 9: A lot less. 774 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 19: Yeah, how about this guy Justin Jefferson no A Mecca 775 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 19: Abupa from the Tampa Bay Bucks. I think is a 776 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 19: fantastic sleeper right now. In fact, I have bumped him 777 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 19: up to where he might not even be considered a sleeper. 778 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 19: He's my wide receiver thirty two in rankings. But the 779 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 19: reason is because Chris Godwin it seems more and more 780 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 19: unlikely that he will be out there to start the season, 781 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 19: and McMillan that landed on the IR he could be 782 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 19: out for a while. 783 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 5: So that leaves Evans and the rookie. 784 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 19: There as the top two targets for Baker Mayfield and 785 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 19: double E. As Adam Ranks calling him on Fantasy Live, 786 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 19: he is a runway now to earn consistent playing time, 787 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 19: perhaps be the lead slot guy. 788 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 5: So I think there is a lot of and he 789 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 5: comes from Ohio State. 790 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 19: Do I need to say Moore is a wide receiver, 791 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 19: Like I think there's a lot of upside there in 792 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 19: a good Bucks offense. 793 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 2: Or one more florio. 794 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: You can argue that most tight ends are sleepers because 795 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: no one knows anything after like the top three guys here, But. 796 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,919 Speaker 2: Give me a deep, deep sleeper at tight end. Yeah, 797 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 2: this is deep. 798 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 19: He might not even get drafted in some of listeners 799 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 19: leagues right now. But Elijah Arroyo out of Seattle, he 800 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 19: was a tight end prospect that I loved during the 801 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 19: draft time. Good speed for a guy that is his size, 802 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 19: moves more like a wide receiver to me, and he 803 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 19: had a lot of downfield usage in college, which you 804 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 19: don't really see out. 805 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 5: Of tight ends. 806 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 19: He could win after the catch, and with the Seahawks 807 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 19: moving on from no offense, there's a lot of opportunity there. 808 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 19: And speaking of opportunity, he was playing plenty with the 809 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 19: starters in the preseason. So just a late round Darthrow, 810 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 19: maybe even a waiver wire guy. 811 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 5: But I do think there's upside there with the Royal. 812 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 2: Filing that away. 813 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: For my other fantasy draft, which is on Saturday afternoon, 814 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: Floor Oil, if you could just please. 815 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 2: Keep your phone on, I would greatly appreciate it. 816 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: Otherwise we will look for I gotchagin with you again 817 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 1: soon on this show. 818 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 2: A lot more to come still on. 819 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: This edition of The Insiders, including a look at some 820 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 1: teams that might surprise in twenty twenty five, or Bucky 821 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: Brooks rejoins the conversation to break down the Jets. 822 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 2: A lot more snacks on the Insiders presented by best Buy. 823 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:52,919 Speaker 10: It's time for upgrade your Game Day, presented by best BUYE. 824 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 10: All week, we've been asking everybody, what teams do you 825 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 10: think are going to surprise fans by getting out to 826 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 10: a very fast start. There is Ian Roperport, there is 827 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 10: Bucky Brooks. Bucky, I'm starting with you. What team do 828 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 10: you think is going to surprise us early this season? 829 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 16: A Judy, I'm going with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and I 830 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,359 Speaker 16: know they're gonna get a lot of attention because Aaron 831 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 16: Rodgers is in the building, But I think it's the 832 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 16: other guys that they've added to the roster that gives 833 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,800 Speaker 16: this team the edge that it needs. Jalen Ramsey joining 834 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 16: a secondary with Darius Slay to kind of help Joey 835 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 16: Porter Junior learn how to be in the elite corner 836 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 16: while also give them the flexibility to. 837 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 5: Match up with some of these top flight offenses. 838 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 16: And then DK Metcalf being on the outside so that 839 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 16: Aaron Rodgers can hand the ball off but also throw 840 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,280 Speaker 16: it out there to a big target. The Pittsburgh Stillers 841 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,200 Speaker 16: have this confidence in this ascident that they feel like 842 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 16: they're going to be a lot better than most of 843 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 16: us predict. So I'm gonna lean on Mike Tomlin's arrogance, 844 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 16: his competitive arrogance, and rob with the Pittsburgh Steelers for 845 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 16: a little bit. 846 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 7: Well that's the case, then the Steelers are gonna win 847 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 7: a playoff game this year, as they probably should. 848 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,280 Speaker 6: They are a stack team. 849 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 7: If Aaron Rodgers stays healthy, no doubt he's going to 850 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 7: be better than the version of the Jets are, especially 851 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 7: at the beginning of last year. I certainly with you 852 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 7: on the Steelers. My option here, my choice here would 853 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 7: be the Arizona Cardinals. 854 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 4: I spent some time with them. 855 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 6: During training camp. They didn't do much, certainly not on offense. 856 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,720 Speaker 7: In the offseason, added a couple pieces Josh Wet on defense, 857 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 7: certainly drafted on defense. But it's Arizona. They don't get 858 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 7: a ton of publicity. They're going to be better. They 859 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:22,240 Speaker 7: really are, And I know that most people probably couldn't 860 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 7: name anyone on their team except for maybe Marvin Harrison 861 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 7: Junior and Kyler Murray. But they are really good. They're 862 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 7: really solid. The foundation is built, and I expect the 863 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 7: Arizona Cardinals to have a much better year this year. 864 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 6: Competing to the Land in the playoffs. Duty. 865 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 10: I agree with both of you about the Pittsburgh Steelers. 866 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 10: Don't forget they opened the season in New York against 867 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 10: the New York Jets. I'm going to be at that game. 868 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 10: I can't wait. It's been circled since the schedule was released, 869 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 10: and you know that Aaron Rodgers more than anybody, is 870 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 10: going to want to make sure the Steelers get off 871 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 10: to a very fast start. 872 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,479 Speaker 1: It's doing enough before the NFL regular season kicks off, 873 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:06,359 Speaker 1: and NFL Network has seven live games this week. Big 874 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: names return, risen rookies look to make their mark. It's 875 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: their last chance to set the stage and enter the 876 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: new season strong. Week three of NFL preseason live on 877 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: NFL Network. Blackou restrictions apply also starting with NFL Plus. 878 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: Subchurchen required for NFL Plus. We've got more trades.

Of course, a Sean 881 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 1: Payton connection right there.

He was really 898 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 10: good in training camp practices, but what he's shown on 899 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 10: the field in the first two preseason games has wowed everybody. 900 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 10: His command of the offense, his confidence. 901 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 2: Moxie is award. 902 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 10: The Giants have thrown around a lot, and you can 903 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 10: see that he's been really superb, especially in the second 904 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 10: preseason game, especially really sharp, and I think has finally 905 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 10: given Giants fans some hope that there are better days 906 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 10: ahead At the quarterback position. 907 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:43,919 Speaker 2: Never mind this segment, go Ian. 908 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 7: The forty nine Ers and Chiefs have just made a 909 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 7: trade and is a certainly familiar name.
