1
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,879
Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntire.

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 2: What is up Straight Fire, Faan, It's me Jason McIntyre,

3
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:21,479
Speaker 2: Straight boy yeer for Wednesday, July twenty third. Oh man,

4
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: I was fortunate enough to go last night to a

5
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 2: Dodgers game. Dodgers Twins. Man, it's been a while since

6
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: I've seen the Minnesota Twins. The buddy I went with

7
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 2: was like, hey, you know, last time I remember the

8
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 2: Twins they had like Kirby Pucket. I was like, yeah,

9
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 2: pretty much. Anyways, Dodgers with the l But Shoeotani, for

10
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: the fourth straight game hits a home run. I mean,

11
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: the guy is magical to watch. Did have a rough

12
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: night early, but then hits the bomb in the ninth inning.

13
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: Shoyotani is basically worth the price of admission.

14
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: That's all.

15
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 2: Everybody there wearing Otani year, way more Japanese fans than

16
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: I've ever seen at Dodger Stadium prior to his arrival.

17
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: It's such a scene. I'm so happy for Otani. Obviously,

18
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 2: the Dodgers are in a bit of a funk right now,

19
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 2: a malaise if you will. They will snap out of

20
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: it before we get to Jeremy Fowler ESPN reporter talking

21
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: about all the rankings in the list that he's doing

22
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: for ESPN. I just wanted to point out this is

23
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 2: an interesting story and I love the admission to go

24
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 2: back to piggyback off. So Bruce Feldman's College football talk yesterday.

25
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 2: So at Big Ten Media Days, the coach of the

26
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,839
Speaker 2: Maryland Terrapins, Mike Locksley, said that he lost his locker

27
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 2: room last year because he struggled with how to compensate

28
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: which players, and apparently because things were unraveling, certain guys

29
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: were emerging as players that needed to be paid, and

30
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: others were failing to meet expectations and were handsomely paid.

31
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: The Terrapins went into this big downward spier. They actually

32
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 2: had more players selected in the draft six than victories four.

33
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 2: Apparently they just got blown out in every game down

34
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: the stretch. That's the kind of stuff I love that.

35
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 2: Obviously it's not great to go through it, but I

36
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 2: like that that's now a story that has come out.

37
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: It is a legitimate issue if you pay the wrong

38
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: guys and the guys who are have handsomely paid are

39
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: dogging it and the other guys all of a sudden

40
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 2: are ticked off. You've got major problems in the locker room.

41
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: And I again, college football is going through such an

42
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 2: amazing change right now. I'm here for all of it.

43
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: But anyways, without further ado, let's get to our guest

44
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: ESPN NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler.

45
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: You know a guy, Jason likes to think he knows

46
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: everything when it comes to sports.

47
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 2: I know what sports fans want, but.

48
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: For everything he doesn't. He knows a guy who does.

49
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 3: Let's just say I know a guy who knows a

50
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,239
Speaker 3: guy who knows another guy.

51
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 2: All right, let's welcome into straight fire. A guy who

52
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 2: covers the NFL. And man, he's got some lists right now.

53
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: They're popping off and getting people fired up. Jeremy Fowler, ESPN,

54
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: How you.

55
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 4: Doing, man, damn good man. Thanks for having me.

56
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've known Jeremy for a long time. He's covered

57
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: football forever. You know, down in Florida, you covered a

58
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: lot of football. I'm just curious this off season it's

59
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: hasn't been too crazy. I mean, I guess the Aaron

60
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: Rodgers move was a big one. But as we headed

61
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: to the season, what's the vibe around the league of

62
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: the Chiefs is their dynasty still on top or now.

63
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: So I would say with the Chiefs, there is some

64
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: skepticism there. There are some cracks in the foundation a

65
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 3: little bit. I mean, Travis Kelsey was not at his

66
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 3: best last year. He's going to try to sort of

67
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 3: write a final chapter for himself and what could be

68
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 3: his last year. Receivers are beat up. You had guards

69
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 3: playing at tackle. You know, the offense is a mass.

70
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 3: I think that Super Bowl loss was sobering for a

71
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 3: lot of people. I mean it's not that they just

72
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 3: played poorly. They couldn't complete a pass, you know, so

73
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 3: that brought some doubt for sure. But I do think

74
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: the Mahomes has a chance to get back to his

75
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 3: gun slinging ways. You know, he always ranked first or

76
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 3: second in QBR forever. Now he's more like later in

77
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 3: the top ten numbers, a little more modest. But I

78
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 3: think if you can get Xavier Worthy for Shee, Rice

79
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 3: Hollywood Brown, Travis Kelcey all back together, they have a

80
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 3: chance to have an uptick in the passing game a

81
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: little bit. But you know, you got Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow,

82
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 3: Josh Allen kind of coming for his spot right now.

83
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: A little bit.

84
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is kind of weak that the four best

85
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the league all play in the AFC. I'd

86
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 2: love a little more balance, but whatever, All right, let's

87
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 2: get to your list. So, you know, I'm assuming you're

88
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: huddling with some editors and you guys decide, Hey, let's

89
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: do a list. We'll pull executives, coaches, and scouts. We'll

90
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: do top ten quarterbacks. I am curious when you're doing

91
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 2: this polling, how large of a sample are you trying

92
00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 2: to balance these seventy voters AFC age, because you know,

93
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: some of these older gentlemen have a different view of

94
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 2: quarterback than what I think the modern guy is. Yeah,

95
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: I guess you talk to me about the process of

96
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: finding the voters.

97
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 4: Yeah.

98
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: I try to cast fretty wide net and get a

99
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: variety of people.

100
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 4: You know.

101
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 3: I like getting, say, if I'm doing quarterbacks, I like

102
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,679
Speaker 3: getting defensive coordinators. I like getting defensive backs coaches, guys

103
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 3: like that that have to go against the passing game

104
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 3: of that guy. I like to get assistant GM types

105
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 3: or you know, pro personnel directors because they're in the

106
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 3: weeds of it, like they do study all the players

107
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 3: as opposed to you know, if you're a college scout

108
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 3: maybe not so much, or even in a lot of

109
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 3: cases a general manager might not be in the weeds

110
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 3: like that. So I have I have kind of my

111
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 3: go to people that have sort of worked their way up,

112
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 3: and you know, they're in tune with everything, and they're

113
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 3: dedicated to getting me all the lists, you know, like

114
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 3: they're in they're my gold club, Like they give me

115
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 3: all eleven positions.

116
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 4: You know.

117
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 3: Sometimes I'll use like gms or head coaches. They might

118
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 3: be busy to not be able to send me all

119
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 3: the list, but they might help me break a tie.

120
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 3: Like a wide receiver.

121
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 4: I had.

122
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: Five guys for two spots, the last two spots, so

123
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 3: I would send that to gms and head coaches that

124
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 3: I trust, and they would like send me their order

125
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 3: of those five. So you know, just there are a

126
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: lot of ways I do it, and some positions are

127
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 3: more popular than others. Quarterback is easier to get the

128
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: most votes because you know, it's easy to judge and

129
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 3: it's a tangible position as opposed to like you know,

130
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 3: offensive line or offensive guard. It's a little more detailed.

131
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 2: Let's go to the quarterbacks real quick. I guess the

132
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts one ticked off a lot of people. I

133
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 2: wasn't too worked up, but I just I don't love

134
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 2: the disrespect. And again, it's not toward you, it's towards

135
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 2: the league around Hurts. Yeah, I mean he's gotten to

136
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 2: two Super Bowls. Obviously, he's been on decent teams, decent

137
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 2: to really good teams, and he's performed amazingly in the

138
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 2: Super Bowls. He has a Super Bowl MVP. There really

139
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 2: isn't anything he can't do. He wins from the pocket.

140
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 2: His pocket numbers last year were top five. Obviously, the

141
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 2: tush push. The one thing I think that's a knock

142
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: on him, And tell me if you believe this, Jeremy,

143
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 2: is that he's not a first round pick. Nine of

144
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 2: the ten quarterbacks were first round picks. Yeah, and it

145
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 2: just feels like he's he's getting the well they you know,

146
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 2: they they want by running the football and they limited

147
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 2: his passes. Were you surprised that it Hurts checked in

148
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: at ninth bias?

149
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 3: Right, Like, if you're a scout or an exec or

150
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 3: a coach and you love to say Justin Herbert coming

151
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 3: out and you're a big traits guy, right, And a

152
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 3: lot of personnel guys are traits guys, or they want

153
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 3: somebody who you could put in any scheme and because

154
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 3: of all that they can do, they can handle it right,

155
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: Like they're not scheme specific. So justin Herbert is a

156
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 3: guy comes to mind from that, even though in the

157
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 3: eyes of some he's underwhelmed.

158
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: A little bit.

159
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: So with Hertz, the only pushback I got on hurts

160
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 3: from people around the league is that when he was

161
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 3: asked to handle a high volume passing attack, and that

162
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 3: was twenty twenty three when he threw the ball out

163
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 3: more and he really struggled and that wasn't all his

164
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 3: fault as a different team, but there's tension with his

165
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 3: head coach and he threw fifteen interceptions, Like there's just

166
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 3: skepticism about him being able to handle that. I would

167
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: say the comp I get for him is Russell Wilson,

168
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: you know who was similar, right, Like, you could do

169
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 3: a lot of things. At one point, he was probably

170
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 3: a top three quarterback maybe five years ago. You can

171
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 3: win a Super Bowl with him, but if you ask

172
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: him to throw the ball forty times a game, you're gonna.

173
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 4: Be in trouble.

174
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 3: Like it's just he doesn't have the ability to handle it.

175
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 3: That's some of the pushback I get from Hurts. So

176
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 3: I like to equate it to you know, if you

177
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 3: ask twenty people like, hey, I'll give you the Eagles offense,

178
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: and you either keep Jalen Hurts or you put Justin

179
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 3: Herbert in there, or even a Jared Goff maybe like

180
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 3: a lot of people would take Herbert or Golf in

181
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 3: that case, or maybe even Mayfield, you know. So it's

182
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 3: it just depends on your preference. Now that said, I

183
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,839
Speaker 3: do think he was disrespected a little bit. I thought

184
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 3: he would be higher than nine.

185
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 2: It's interesting you say that, because, like we can judge

186
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 2: people based on their data. We can look at all

187
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 2: the numbers, all the PFF numbers, the closed window throws,

188
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 2: all that stuff. What we can't do is this speculative. Well,

189
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: how would Justin Herbert?

190
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: Do you know that?

191
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that's first of all, I remember, Jared Goff

192
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 2: is a rookie. Essentially, he had never taken a snap

193
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: under center in college, and Jeff Fisher was an old

194
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,959
Speaker 2: school let's line up under center, handed off and it

195
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,719
Speaker 2: just I mean, Jared Goff looked like one of the

196
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 2: biggest bus ever. And then he gets McVeigh who's like, oh,

197
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 2: we need to play his strength and then within a

198
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 2: couple of years gofs in the Super Bowl. Sure, so

199
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 2: that's a tough one for me. Do you think with

200
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: hurt some of it is the whole running aspect that

201
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: he runs a ton.

202
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 3: I don't want to say this for certain because I

203
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 3: want to knock him, but there's you know, there's a

204
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 3: chance they're hiding him a little bit. I mean, the

205
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 3: Eagles finished twenty ninth in passing last year. Like, it's

206
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 3: hard to put a guy as a top five quarterback

207
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 3: when you're twenty ninth in passing. It just is, and

208
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 3: it's a passing position.

209
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 4: That said total package.

210
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 3: He's really really good, you know, and you got to

211
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 3: take the running element into it. He has improved as

212
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 3: a passer. He improved a lot last year, so he

213
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 3: deserves a lot of credit for that. I just think

214
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 3: if you know, you're picking like guys at the playground, right,

215
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 3: you're picking a team, and you know some of these guys, Herbert,

216
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 3: you might it was who's polarizing by the way, but

217
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 3: you might just pick him earlier because you can do

218
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 3: more with him.

219
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 2: The Hurts when you said, is interesting. So they finished

220
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 2: twenty ninth at passing. And again, if I feel like

221
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 2: defending Hurts, I would say, well, Jeremy, they led most

222
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 2: of the way. Their defense was incredible. He's not having

223
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 2: to throw a lot, but he completed like seventy two

224
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: percent of whatever the number was, so he's good when

225
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 2: he asked to throw. He just doesn't have to throw

226
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: a lot. And then it's like Herbert's the opposite, right,

227
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 2: the defense was with Minter and if he's got to

228
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 2: throw forty times, he's gonna keep you in every game.

229
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 2: It is tough, like who would you take Herbert or

230
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Hertson? Like Herbert exactly what you want with his legs,

231
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 2: arm body as a quarterback, Like I would take Herbert

232
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 2: over Patrick Mahomes. Is that crazy? Like based on Herbert's frame,

233
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 2: he could absorb anything.

234
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's heard though, and that's good.

235
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 2: Well, I mean Mahomes has the dad bod. He's only

236
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 2: what he six' to. TWO i Mean herbert's like six'.

237
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 2: Five strapping he looks like a gazelle, out there oh.

238
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 3: For sure and three interceptions, last year like he was

239
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 3: really efficient. New offense he's in a tough spot because

240
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 3: He's In greg, roman's offense which is so, Run heavy

241
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 3: like his passing attempts dropped from like thirty six.

242
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 4: A game to. Twenty nine, YOU know i forget what

243
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 4: the number, was exactly but it. Was, Low YEAH and.

244
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 3: I just don't know if they're gonna maximize his ability

245
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 3: now because of what they're. Gonna do they're gonna double

246
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 3: down on the running game and.

247
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 4: They're gonna run.

248
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 3: PLAY action i think they're gonna try to get better

249
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 3: on the. Outside vertically THE thing i Get from herbert

250
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 3: just talking to people around the league is that like

251
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 3: he's just he's just not quite there yet when it

252
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 3: comes to like making off scripted plays or winning a two. Minute,

253
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 3: drill uh, you know managing the game. To win That's

254
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 3: what mahomes was really good at. Last year that was, Maybe,

255
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 3: subtle yeah is like and a lot of coaches, praise

256
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 3: this like he just he manages the game and the

257
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 3: clock really really well to where even if he's not

258
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 3: putting up, big numbers he's putting them in a position.

259
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 3: To win so that's sort of the next Step. For

260
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 3: herbert the ability is. All world, you know if you're

261
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 3: picking these guys, on ability he's probably top three on. The,

262
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 3: list yeah he has the upside to get to the.

263
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 3: Top five he just hasn't.

264

275
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 2: years of Data on purdy where he's really, freaking good

276

277
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 2: TOP ten i.

278
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 4: WAS surprised i.

279
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 3: Was surprised so the most shocking part of the quarterback

280
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: list was there was a huge drop off after the.

281
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 3: Twelve guys so It was stroud, At Eleven jordan love. At

282
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 3: twelve those guys all got a lot, of votes and

283
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 3: then there was a huge. Drop off so note Barely,

284
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 3: any dak Barely. Any Brogue tyler murray got more Votes Than,

285
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: dak ambrock so that was. REALLY surprising.

286
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: I just.

287
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 3: It's and probably it is. Confirmation bias they're waiting for

288
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 3: him to kind of fall back down a little bit

289
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: based on maybe the. Skill set not the, biggest guy

290
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 3: not the, biggest arm. All that very good, decision maker, very,

291
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 3: Accurate tough like he's got a lot of what.

292
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 4: You NEED so i can see him being higher.

293
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 3: Next year and he's gonna have to because he's gonna

294
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 3: have to carry that team a little more than, He.

295
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 4: Has like they're not.

296
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 3: As loaded they're really doing a sneaky rebuild.

297
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 4: Right, now, Yeah.

298
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 3: Younger like it's probably containing to rebuild on the line

299
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:55,959
Speaker 3: and you don't. Know, it well that's what they're doing.

300
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 3: Right now so he's gonna have to get it done

301
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 3: at a higher clip than. He has teammates swear, by him.

302
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 4: They, love him.

303
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 3: You Know the the question, is like Is He kirk

304
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 3: cousins or is he? SOMETHING more i think that's really.

305
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 3: THE question i think he could be. Something MORE but

306
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 3: i was a little surprised that a lot of leak doesn't.

307
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: Think that it's.

308
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: So interesting uh dak seventh, round pick. Mister irrelevant so

309
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 2: you compare Him To, kirk cousins why couldn't He be

310
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 2: i'm trying to think Of a he's not Gonna Be,

311
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 2: dan Marino but i'm trying to think of a Quarterback

316
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 3: An, underdog yeah, it, is well it's and you hate

317
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 3: to like bring it back to the simplest form, of like, you, know, size, athleticism,

318
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 3: arm strength. And traits but like all the guys on

319
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: the list are six to one. Or above, You Know

320
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 3: jalen hurts is on the smaller side of the. Top

321
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: ten all those guys. Are big so, it's tough like

322
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 3: you're just you're you're at an uphill battle when you're.

323
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 3: That size you saw it a little bit In The

324
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 3: super bowl two, years ago late and when he gets

325
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 3: it's late in the game on that third down or

326
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 3: whatever down.

327
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 4: That was, you know.

328
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 3: It's tough so but, that said you can, overcome that

329
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 3: and quarterbacks have shown you can. Overcome, that, so uh,

330
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 3: YOU know i think a lot of voters do go back,

331
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 3: to that and they were maybe looking for a reason to,

332
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 3: knock him unless year was a reason because he wasn't.

333
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 3: AS good, i, mean like, you know his. Record's great

334
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 3: he does a lot of.

335
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 2: GOOD things i still remember in the playoffs they were

336
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 2: LOSING to i think it was they were losing To

337
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 2: the packers and then he let it, come BACK and

338
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 2: i think they were losing To the lions and he

339
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 2: let it, come back and it's like the guy.

340
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: Just.

341
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 2: Delivered MAN but i don't need to wax on About.

342
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 2: Brock party let me add you uh you also covered

343
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 2: like the league. At large are there any big picture

344
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: trends you're seeing whereas remember a couple of, years ago

345
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 2: mahomes used to be just killing people with the bombs over,

346
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 2: the top and then everybody went too high safety and

347
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: to go. Ahead us are we seeing a transition to

348
00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 2: two tight end sets more now heavier to combat the

349
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 2: deep safety and taking away the big play because it

350
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 2: seems Like the niners are going to be going more

351
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: two tight.

352
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: End.

353
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 3: SETS yeah i think it's all, the above and really

354
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 3: the trend now is just running the. BALL more i

355
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 3: mean you're just seeing teams try to equal that out

356
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 3: to that what you're, talking about, you know so that's

357
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 3: Why the eagles were. So successful, you know like that

358
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 3: there's been a little bit of a running. BACK renaissance

359
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 3: i think the two tight end sets will, be big.

360
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 4: You know you're.

361
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 3: Having now defenses are trying to combat that with safeties

362
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 3: Like A kyle hamilton or somebody who can play like

363
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 3: a linebacker slash safety or kind of. All around, you

364
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 3: know like positionless defense. Is bigger LIKE when i was

365
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 3: Doing this top, ten series it was kind of shocking

366
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 3: that how many people were really down on like the,

367
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 3: Traditional linebacker like they feel like there's just a major

368
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 3: dearth of talent at linebacker where it used To Be

369
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 3: dick buckets and all, those guys like as a. Premier

370
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 3: position now it's not now it's it's. Just Not There's

371
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 3: fred warner And There's ropewon smith and then a huge.

372
00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 3: Drop off so, you know that's interesting. To me like

373
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 3: defenses are trying to combat that with speed and putting

374
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 3: a lot of dbs on, the field which.

375
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 4: Is you know That's.

376
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 3: AFFECTED mahomes i mean you've seen it And, the chiefs

377
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 3: so you just you need a steadier running game to losen,

378
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 3: That Up like detroit's really mastered that. They get, you

379
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 3: know they six yards of pop pop on the, running

380
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 3: game and then you have suddenly these huge windows to.

381
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 3: Throw into so it really does kind of go back

382
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 3: to the simple math, like that if offenses can figure,

383
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 3: that out more team to run, the ball then defenses

384
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 3: are gonna load up and try to, stop that and

385
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 3: then you're gonna have more over.

386
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,919
Speaker 4: The top so it's a cyclical game. For sure it

387
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 4: definitely feels.

388
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 2: That way it's almost like everybody's telling, Their, kids, hey

389
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 2: hey don't be, a linebacker get to be in. That

390
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 2: drusher put on the, twenty pounds be a, defensive tackle

391
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 2: or lose, the weight be a safety because they pay.

392
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 2: Dbs linebackers that's a. Tough position you're just filling gaps and. Drilling,

393
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 2: people yeah not a POSITION that I that I would i.

394
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 1: Would.

395
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 3: EMBRACE yeah i think a lot of receivers are asked

396
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: to be like, youth receivers they all want to. Be

397
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 3: receivers they are being asked to be, corners because Like,

398
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 3: lug man is a clear path to college if you

399
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 3: just learn how to.

400
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 2: Run, Backwards Yeah, TRAVIS hunter i you haven't put out

401
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 2: your cornerback LIST yet i don't doubt he'd make the

402
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 2: top ten as. A rookie he hasn't played, a GAME

403
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 2: but i, will ask do you really think he's going

404
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 2: to be successful playing? Both ways this idea that he's

405
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 2: going To tackle christian McCaffrey in space and Be Chasing

406
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 2: derrick henry down and then, you know seven plays later

407
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: he's running routes atop speed that. That's impossible.

408
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 4: It's The.

409
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 3: JACKSONVILLE jaguars i feel like it's. Not impossible they're going to. Be,

410
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 3: judicious yeah he wants to play the. Whole way he

411
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 3: does want to.

412
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 4: Do it. I'M skeptical a lot of people are on

413
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 4: the league. Are skeptical.

414
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 3: You know it's, FUNNY though i talked To the browns,

415
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 3: about this because, you know they thought about. Drafting him

416
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 3: Like the browns thought when in their research where they consider,

417
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 3: drafting him they just thought he was so wildly well

418
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 3: conditioned that he.

419
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 4: Could at least give it.

420
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 3: A chance maybe not at a full hill, every snap

421
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 3: but like maybe make him a receiver and then you,

422
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 3: you know you make them like a nickel cornerback on

423
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,439
Speaker 3: third down in his zone where they can kind of

424
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 3: like see things in front of him make a play on,

425
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 3: the ball uses.

426
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 4: Ball skills so.

427
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 3: It's really the league is torn on what they think

428
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 3: about him as far as. You know some think he's

429
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 3: just a pure corner something that's too much of an

430
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 3: ask and just let him go catch. The ball on the,

431
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 3: other Side the jaguars feel like they wanted them to

432
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 3: work heavy receiver first because it's a harder.

433
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 4: Position to learn because of the offense and all the.

434
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: Nuances there but he kind of flashed a defense late,

435
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 3: in camp Like an OTA's a. Mini camp he was

436
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 3: doing pretty good and making plays on. The ball so,

437
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 3: after that feel like. ANYTHING'S possible i think he's to

438
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 3: get a. Healthy run like they're trying to formulate a plan,

439
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 3: for him they don't want to give him.

440
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 4: Too much.

441
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 3: My guess still is he's going to major, in offense minor.

442
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 3: And defense he's at least giving him something to think

443
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 3: about there where he can handle more.

444
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 4: Up, defensively.

445
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 2: YEAH major i like that major and minor because We

446
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 2: Had marlon humphrey On the herd last week and he, was,

447
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 2: like yeah that's not it's not gonna BE pot, i

448
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 2: mean he's Practicing With. Derrick Henry marlon humphrey Played With

449
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 2: derrick Henry. In Alabama deon sanders ran. Back punts, that's

450
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 2: fine and then we'll play cornerback and we'll go. Play

451
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 2: baseball BUT like i just think tackling and then going and. Catching,

452
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: passes now if you put him a Receiver, opposite thomas

453
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 2: they probably have, something, There, right yeah.

454
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 3: FOR sure i mean doing this top, Ten Series brian

455
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 3: thomas is he didn't make my, top ten but he's a.

456
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 3: Massive star like he took the league by storm. Last

457
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 3: year he can, play, inside outside, deep ball like you

458
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 3: can put. Him anywhere he's going. To Succeed And liam

459
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 3: cohen really wanted a number two receiver to match with

460
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,639
Speaker 3: him because he felt Like in Tampa When mike evans,

461
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 3: got hurt they were Exposed Because chris goblin was.

462
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 4: Already out so he wants.

463
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 3: Two guys so THAT'S why i go, back To like

464
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 3: hunter is going to play a healthy amount.

465
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 4: ON offense I just i don't see a world where.

466
00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 4: He doesn't and it's easy to find him pack just

Speaker 2: year have To Be bryce Young, in CAROLINA and I

477

478
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 2: think those GUYS like i don't want, to say lose

479
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 2: your starting job or bench or traded, or whatever but

480
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 2: it just feels like those three have kind of they're

481
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 2: in a tough spot.

482
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 3: For Sure, SO chicago, I Mean ben johnson's got a

483
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,239
Speaker 3: harder edge to him than you. Would, think oh like

484
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 3: he's gonna want just the professionalism and. The detail he's

485
00:21:58,680 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 3: gonna want.

486
00:21:59,119 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 4: All that.

487
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 3: I've heard it's been good so Far with caleb and

488
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 3: they've really worked with them on not only the offense

489
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 3: and throwing with a plan and knowing what's going on

490
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 3: and the sequencing of, it all but like having good body.

491
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 3: Language too you know that was a problem, Last year

492
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 3: like accountability a little bit was. AN issue, i mean

493
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 3: it was a mess, last year and he played a part,

494
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 3: in that, You KNOW like i know some of the

495
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 3: ex coaches didn't love the comments he had about nobody

496
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 3: watching film, with him like it's it was all. A

497
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 3: mess so he's got a long way. To go he's

498
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 3: got a lot, TO prove, i think, you KNOW and

499
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 3: i don't know where. THAT goes i think they're going

500
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 3: to be patient, with him, you know because they, have

501
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 3: to and his upside is, So high like the ability

502
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 3: Is like i'll put it, this way if he was in.

503
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 4: The RUNNING for mvp, next year wouldn't.

504
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 3: Shock me if it went terribly wrong and He, got

505
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 3: bend it wouldn't shock.

506
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 4: Me either like it feels like anything's possible There. In

507
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 4: chicago that is a wide range of options.

508
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 3: Just because but part of that is just because the

509
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 3: talent and like the upside, he has he's not matching

510
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 3: it and it's like what are? We doing SO but

511
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 3: i do think they'll be pretty patient, With him and,

512
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 3: You know caroline. IS interesting i don't think it necessarily

513
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 3: that a lot of Pressure because bryce dug himself out of.

514
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 3: A hole i guess if he starts, poorly again maybe

515
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 3: they make. A move but there's a lot of confidence,

516
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 3: right now like he was playing with confidence. Last year

517
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 3: they feel good about the. Running game as long as he,

518
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 3: has that he's gonna have some windows to throw into

519
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 3: the offensive line's. Pretty GOOD like i don't necessarily put

520
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 3: him high on my. Pressure meter, uh yeah You Mentioned.

521
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 3: TREVOR lawrence i actually have him pretty high on that because,

522
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 3: and again like they're stuck in a Contract And liam

523
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 3: cohen is coming in thinking he's got multiple years of

524
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 3: this guy. Most likely but, you know you talk to

525
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 3: people that Are in jacksonville and you know they still

526
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:48,720
Speaker 3: believe in him and have faith. In him but there's

527
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 3: kind of a, Feeling, like okay you're on your third

528
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 3: coach foers for less than, Five years like it's time

529
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,199
Speaker 3: to get this. Thing going and he, knows that. You

530
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 3: know so he's got to showing up tick here. Pretty

531
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 3: soon like if it's sluggish again like it was, LAST

532
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 3: year i, don't know would end.

533
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 2: Very, well yeah let's quickly go To The. Miami Dolphins

534
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 2: if mike McDaniel hits, the market, holy cow people will

535
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 2: snap him up in. A second i don't know if

536
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: he's on the hot Seat, in miami but it definitely

537
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 2: feels like they need to probably win and get to. The,

538
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 2: playoffs no so.

539
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 3: There's Pressure in Miami with mike mcdaill, For SURE like

540
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 3: i would put him pretty high in the. PRESSURE meter

541
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 3: i don't know what that looks like as far as

542
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 3: having to win a. PLAYOFF game i don't think there's

543
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 3: a mandate there as far as exactly what he has,

544
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 3: to do but there has to. Be progress it's not

545
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 3: just the lack of convincing wins or. Convincing seasons it's

546
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 3: sort of the lack of any sort of. Signature win

547
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 3: they haven't really had any. Big moments we know the offense.

548
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 3: Is good has it plateaued a? Little bit, you know time.

549
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 3: WILL tell i.

550
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 4: Do think the defenses seemed to make some of the.

551
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 3: Eye candy in the motions, and shifts And tyree o

552
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 3: really struggled, at times.

553
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 4: So they've got to.

554
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 3: Answer that but it's a roster that has downgraded in

555
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 3: a few. Spots too it looks very much, in transition

556
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 3: like some of the moves that made it look like

557
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,160
Speaker 3: they were just trying to. Save money so that doesn't

558
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 3: necessarily put me down the best spot unless they feel

559
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 3: really good about these backups with these other people that

560
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 3: have come. In POSITION so i have some. Concerns there,

561
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 3: YOU know i think he can get. It done he's

562
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 3: smart enough to get them in a. Good position but

563
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 3: you've had a lot of turmoil with Players And jalen

564
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 3: ramsey wanted Out And johnny smith. Wanted OUT like i

565
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 3: don't know what to, expect there but, you, know yeah

566
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: there has to Be enough tike in production for him to.

567
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 3: Stay around it feels like that right now.

568
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:39,679
Speaker 2: For.

569
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 4: Sure yeah, All.

570
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 2: Right, jeremy finally are you a big fantasy? Football guy

571
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 2: are you playing in multiple leagues? Or?

572
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 4: Not really, YOU know i, used.

573
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 3: To AND then i kind of gave, it up not

574
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 3: for any. PARTICULAR reason i just was kind of locked into.

575
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 3: The season And then i'm gonna get back, into though

576
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 3: because my son played last year and he had one

577
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 3: of those classic experiences where he drafted all the studs

578
00:25:59,040 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 3: and they all.

579
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 4: Got hurt, you Know oh Kathy And nico collins and all.

580
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 3: Those guys SO so I think i'm gonna help him

581
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 3: out a little bit and we're gonna do like a,

582
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 3: you know a co draft.

583
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 4: OR something i.

584
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 2: Asked, that, he's, oh yeah same with. My son he

585
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 2: did it yet a great year. Last year But The kyler, murray,

586
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 2: thing yes he is under some pressure. To deliver but,

587
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 2: my gosh do they not have every piece? IN place

588
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 2: a top ten, running back maybe, top five top five

589
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 2: tight end in McBride And and harrison was projected to be.

590
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 2: A superstar didn't see a lot out. Of them is

591
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 2: this a big Year For? Kyler murray do you expect

592
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 2: them to go to?

593
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 4: The playoffs it's an even bigger Year For.

594
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 3: MARVIN harrison i think if it's a big Year, for

595
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 3: harrison it's a big Year for murray because they tried

596
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 3: to sort of force, that connection couldn't quite get. It

597
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 3: Going but harrison's added. Some size he. LOOKS bigger i

598
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 3: think we'll be able to make contested catches a.

599
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 4: Little better.

600
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 3: You know so You got trey mcgride is sort of

601
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 3: the run and. Catch Guy marvin harrison can be the

602
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 3: intermediate to.

603
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 4: Deep threat. You know if it all, comes together it

604
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:57,239
Speaker 4: can be.

605
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 3: Really good because if you look at their, DEPTH chart

606
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 3: i mean they, got pieces, you know the defensive has a,

607
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 3: few questions But Added, josh sweat like they've. Loaded up

608
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 3: they got the linemen that they've drafted last. Few YEARS

609
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 3: so i do like what they're. Building there it just

610
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 3: it really matters, about what, you know what's? Their ceiling

611
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 3: are they sort of seven? Eight wins or can they?

612
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 3: BREAK through a lot's going to depend On That harrison.

613
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,640
Speaker 3: Murray connection so they're Tied to murray for. THIS year

614
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 3: i believe after this year there's some wiggle room to

615
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 3: potentially get out of that deal if.

616
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 4: They want BUT like i found on, this project he's still.

617
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 3: Got value like he still looked at as the thirteenth

618
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 3: best quarterback in the league oriented.

619
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 4: Of the VOTES that. I pulled that's. Pretty good that's where,

620
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 4: he fell.

621
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,879
