We've already reported for duty. 10 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: Here. 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 2: Welcome inside with the insiders alongside Steve Watch, I am 12 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 2: Tom Pellisero, jam packed Friday night show for you.

Why not, it's four years away. 19 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: We got to get planning. 20 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 2: Folks will talk Panthers, We'll talk a whole lot of 21 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: other teams, but let's talk right now about the full 22 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: squad that reported today. 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,839 Speaker 1: That is the Chicago Bears. 24 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 2: And I can never get enough of these shots of 25 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: the players coming in, you're checking out. I mainly look 26 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: at the cars, Steve and making sure they blurred all 27 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: the license plates. 28 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,199 Speaker 3: We don't want any trouble. 29 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: There is anyone gonna show up in overalls. 30 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,199 Speaker 2: Oy Caleb Williams, as far as I'm aware, no overalls 31 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,960 Speaker 2: for him, but he did get a chance to speak 32 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 2: with those lovely reporters in Chicago. 33 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 4: I wouldn't say that we're all starting from the same 34 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 4: spot because there's guys like Keenan where he he you know, 35 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 4: he came in and you know, I May We were 36 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 4: in the hotel together for a while and and and 37 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 4: we'd be sitting down just you know, eating dinner and 38 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 4: playing cards and then we'd you know, have a break 39 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 4: and we rattle off some plays. And that was when 40 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 4: I was first learning and and and he kind of 41 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 4: have like an idea of what the play was. So 42 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 4: it's nice having you know, people like that around, you know, 43 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 4: a couple of vets, and I know it helps rooms 44 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 4: have people like that around to where it's you know, 45 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 4: when you get out there, he's teaching you movements, he's 46 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 4: teaching you how you know works in the NFL. 47 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 5: Have people behind me. Brett Brett Tyson. 48 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 4: They've played, they've been in it, they've been with other 49 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 4: you know, great, great quarterbacks. 50 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 5: So it's only helping. But you know, we're really excited. 51 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 2: The bar is certainly high for the number one overall 52 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: pick of the Chicago Bears. Caleb Williams steve the bar 53 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 2: very low for Bears quarterbacks historically, over all the past 54 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 2: sixty years or so, it's been certainly a motley crew. 55 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 2: This now is what Kayleb Williams is walking into a 56 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: better situation that we've seen for a lot of number 57 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: one picks through the years, with all the additions that 58 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 2: they made, the weaponry they put around him, also the 59 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: defense that they have with Matt Eberflus here, what are 60 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 2: your expectations, What do you be watching for as Caleb 61 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: Williams and the Bears get out there as a whole 62 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 2: on the practice field starting tomorrow. 63 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 6: Well, I love Matt Eberflus came out today and said 64 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 6: he's gonna play between forty five and fifty five snaps 65 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 6: in preseason games. Remember they have four preseason games because 66 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 6: they're playing in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, 67 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 6: And this could be something where we see him even 68 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 6: in that game, get a series or two, and then 69 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 6: you double it the next game. In a third preseason game, 70 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 6: you let him play a half and maybe start the 71 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 6: third quarter, and then you sit him for that final 72 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 6: preseason game. But I think that will get him everything 73 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 6: from getting used to stretch lines, to stadiums to everything. 74 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 6: The little quirtch we don't necessarily think about kind of 75 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 6: that go with the game itself. 76 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 7: That'll get him ready. Tom and I think it's very important. 77 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 6: In the preseason with the Bears, with this improved roster, 78 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 6: getting him ready to start Week one. 79 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: They got an experienced play caller in Shane Walders came 80 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: over there from Saley's worked with different types of quarterbacks 81 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 2: through the years. He's got a lot of weapons around him. 82 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 2: When you look at the Keenan Allen acquisition, when you 83 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: look at DJ Moore still being there in Roe Madoonsa 84 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 2: and signing DeAndre Swift cold the Bears seemed to draft 85 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: the tight end every year for like a decade. The 86 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 2: table is set here, but again, the expectations will be high, 87 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: even though that bar is low. 88 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: Exactly how low. 89 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: Here's the Bears quarterbacks in the Super Bowl era, Literally 90 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: the worst overall there's been some positive moments. Josh McCown 91 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: had a pretty decent run for like half of the 92 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: twenty thirteen season. 93 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: I mean Jay Cutler. 94 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: They made a run with Jay Cutler. They went to 95 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 2: a super Bowl with Rex Scrozman. This is where that's true. 96 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 2: This is what Cayleb Williams now is walking into. You 97 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: know what was experienced, Well, not quite the entire super 98 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: Bowl era of Bears quarterbacks, but certainly a good chunk 99 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: of it. Our buddy Adam Rank, who often appears on 100 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: this show. 101 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: To talk fantasy football. 102 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 2: He's going to be back to do the AFC West 103 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 2: State of the Franchise later on. He's a brilliant analyst 104 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 2: of the game. But in this moment, Rank, if we 105 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: welcome you into the show, I just want you to 106 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 2: put on your Bear's super fan hat for a moment. 107 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 2: You've waited a long time for what looks like potentially 108 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: the face of the franchise quarterback they have not had 109 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 2: in your lifetime. As you say them rhyming seem arrivy. 110 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 2: You see him hitting the practice field tomorrow, What are 111 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 2: the emotions like? What's going through your body and your 112 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 2: brain right now? 113 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 8: First of all, this is very unfair to Jim McMahon, 114 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 8: who was a very good quarterback who won a Super Bowl. Obviously, 115 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 8: Jay Cutler had some fine times, and then it's Walter 116 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 8: Payton on the halfback option, the three best Bears quarterbacks 117 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 8: in my lifetime. The one thing that I really appreciate 118 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 8: about what the Bears have done with Caleb Williams so 119 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 8: far is that he comes into camp with no competition. 120 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 8: Remember a couple of years ago, when Mitch Trubisky was there, 121 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 8: they had signed Mike Glennon and they did the song 122 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 8: and dance with them. When Justin Field was brought in, 123 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 8: they had Andy Dalton on the team, and again it 124 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 8: was well, we're going to sort of work him in. 125 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 8: They didn't really have a plan. There has been a 126 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 8: plan since day one for Caleb Williams, and the plan 127 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 8: was to get him on the field as quickly as 128 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 8: possible and surround him with the most talent that's ever 129 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 8: surrounded a number one overall draft pick. So I think 130 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 8: that the expectations should be a little bit higher because 131 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 8: I think that people tend to forget this Bears team 132 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 8: won seven. 133 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 3: Games last year. 134 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 8: They didn't have the number one pick because they were awful. 135 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 8: It was because Carolina was awful. Now they've got a 136 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 8: great opportunity to go out there and make some noise. 137 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 8: And in addition to those seven wins, they had three 138 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 8: losses where they had over a ninety percent chance of winning. 139 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 8: It didn't work out for them. We should have high expectations, 140 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 8: and I say we as a collective, not just Bears fans, 141 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 8: but fans of the NFL in general, because this Bears 142 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 8: team is going to hit the ground running. 143 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: Jim McMahon undefeated as the Bears starting quarterback in nineteen 144 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 2: eighty five when he happened to be playing with the 145 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: greatest running back of all time and probably the greatest 146 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: defense of all time. 147 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: Nothing against Jim McMahon. 148 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 2: He started sixty one games total for Chicago. I would 149 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: certainly think that they're going to try to hit the 150 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: over with Caleb Williams Rank, We'll be coming back to 151 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 2: you on this story a whole lot more, but stick around. 152 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: You're gonna be with us later on in the show. 153 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 2: There's also another rookie quarterback in the NFC North who 154 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 2: now is officially under contract. That is JJ McCarthy, who 155 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 2: agreed to terms today with the Minnesota Vikings on his 156 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 2: fully guaranteed four year contract with a fifty year option 157 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: in plenty of time before the Vikings rookies report to 158 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: camp on Sunday. JJ McCarthy Steve walks into a situation 159 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 2: where he's not the unquestioned starter like Caleb William. It's 160 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: not a certainty that he's out there in Week one. 161 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: But when you trade up even one spot and you 162 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: go and get a guy in the top ten at quarterback, 163 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: everyone knows JJ McCarthy's time is coming. That competition with 164 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 2: Sam Darnold, who started a bunch of games for a 165 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: bunch of teams, will be one of the fascinating storylines 166 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 2: following camp. 167 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, look and the meter is running. Like 168 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 6: you said, he drafts a quarterback dot high. He's going 169 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 6: to be the starter at one time and at one 170 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 6: point this season. But head coach Kevin O'Connell came out 171 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 6: and said, you can't write it necessarily down as to 172 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 6: when that's going to happen. 173 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: It is more of a field thing. 174 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 7: So of course in training camp it's. 175 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 6: Going to be how much does McCarthy take to the offense, 176 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 6: how much does he understand opposing coverages, how much does 177 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 6: he understand the protection plan. But more than anything, and 178 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 6: this goes overlooked a lot of time times, is how 179 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 6: do the other ten guys in the huddle respond to him? 180 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 6: If all of a sudden there's a little more bounce 181 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 6: in their step over and over like okay, then maybe 182 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 6: you accelerate getting him on the field, like this is 183 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 6: the guy we feel comfortable with. 184 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: Right. 185 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 6: You saw that when the Niners put in Rock Purty, 186 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 6: they played a different style of football than they played 187 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 6: with Jimmy Garoppolo. 188 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 7: That's when you understood that he was a guy they 189 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 7: feel comfortable with. 190 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 6: And I think that's what Kevin O'Connell, the head coach 191 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 6: of the Vikings again, is going to be really factoring 192 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 6: into when it's time to pull the plug on. 193 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 7: Darnold and to put JJ McCarthy in the starting line. 194 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: One of the questions on JJ McCarthy coming on in 195 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 2: the draft, of course, was well, why didn't they throw 196 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 2: the football more? They were a run dominant team, they 197 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: didn't have to pass the ball a lot. He impressed 198 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 2: a lot of people with what he did is pro day. 199 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 2: The fact that he slung it the way that he 200 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 2: did played his way into being a guy who nobody 201 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 2: would have had as a first round prospect probably going 202 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: into this season, ends up a top ten pick, is 203 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: certainly going to have a lot of eyes on him 204 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 2: in camp in Minnesota. Meanwhile, a couple picks later, Bonnette 205 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: became a Denver Bronco. That was really not a surprise 206 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 2: to a lot of people within the league, who said, 207 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 2: fifty two careers starts the son of a coach. He's 208 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 2: going to do exactly what Sean Payton tells him to do. 209 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: It's the perfect fit in Denver. Nick said recently that 210 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 2: he expects a and I quote very respectful competition with 211 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson and Jared Stidham. Respectfully, it's hard to imagine 212 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 2: this competition doesn't go in the direction in Nix. 213 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: It's respectful right now. 214 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 6: In off season workouts, hey guys, and thanks for the 215 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 6: help this and I really appreciate you. I'm going to 216 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 6: pick up after you. You pick up after me. Now 217 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 6: it's time for somebody to go get it. And Bo Nicks, 218 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 6: you were drafted to go get this job. 219 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 3: Now. 220 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 6: You hear a lot of people say that Zach Wilson 221 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 6: really looked good in offseason workouts as he should have. 222 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 6: He's got veteran experience, he's got incredible talent, But this 223 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 6: is a young player that Sean Payton wants to build 224 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 6: his team around. 225 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 7: So we're going to see how this competition goes. 226 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 6: Because as much as you know that there's still kind 227 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 6: of a grace period as to what they're going to 228 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 6: do with the Broncos, Sean Payton has to win ball games, 229 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 6: right people, Nothing's going to get fired, but at some 230 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 6: point people are going to say in New Orleans, was 231 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 6: it Breeze or was it Peyton? If Sean Payton doesn't 232 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 6: continue to win ball game. So I think this is 233 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 6: a situation where he's going to put the best person 234 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 6: in but bo Nick is the guy they're going to 235 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 6: groom to get in there. So that respectful competition might 236 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 6: get disrespectful pretty soon. 237 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 2: And they've been in a transition phase through the course 238 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 2: of the Soft Seed and you trade away Jerry Judy, 239 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: John Cortland Sutton who still wants a new contract, and 240 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 2: that situation remains to be resolved here as we lead 241 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: up to the reporting date for training camp next week, 242 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 2: they've got a lot of young guys that they're excited about. 243 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: Ly one of Bonex's former college teammates. They've invested in 244 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 2: that position, but who emerges as the pass catchers is 245 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: going to be certainly one of the big storylines as 246 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 2: we talk about the Broncos moving forward. Meanwhile, another contract 247 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: situation that remains unresolved is in Green Bay, where Jordan 248 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 2: Love Well to this point, has not gotten a new 249 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 2: deal to replace the one year that's left on the 250 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: Bridge Deal, the band aid deal that he signed last 251 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: year to avert the Packers having to exercise his fifty option. 252 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 2: Reporters tried to ask Jordan love at his charity event 253 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: last week, a pr guy who doesn't understand that the 254 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 2: media shows up to those events so that they can 255 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 2: get off one question about football topics jumped in would 256 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 2: and let him answer it. The answers, though, Steve, are 257 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 2: going to come soon. It's not a matter of if 258 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: the Packers get something done with Jordan Love, it's a 259 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 2: matter of when. And the price is about as high 260 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 2: as you could possibly have bet. 261 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 262 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 6: Look, this is a guy who waited a long time 263 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 6: to start, so waiting to get this deal done is 264 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 6: something he's probably like, Okay, it's going to get done, 265 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 6: like you said, Tom, But it is the number. 266 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: Is he going to get one of. 267 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 6: These crazy fifty million dollars a year plus APY contracts 268 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 6: that's kind of the going rate in three or four 269 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 6: years from now. That may be kind of a bargain 270 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 6: floor rate, a middle of the market rate. So he's 271 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 6: probably going to get something like that because he proved 272 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 6: over the back half of the last season that the 273 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 6: investment that they have made in him in terms of 274 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 6: developing him and sticking with him to replace Aaron Rodgers, 275 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 6: was worth it. And he is the reason why and 276 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 6: what we saw at the end of last year and 277 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 6: how he to b is why the Green Bay Packers 278 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 6: are going to be in the playoff conversation all season 279 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 6: long because they have pieces in place, including Tom a 280 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 6: group of young receivers and tight ends. 281 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 3: Who he's come up with. 282 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 6: I mean that kind of growth period together with his 283 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 6: receiving targets, along some of the running backs that they have. 284 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 6: With Josh Jacobs coming over, they've got pieces in place 285 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 6: to support him. 286 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: Also had Marshawn Lloyd in the draft, they got j 287 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: Dillon back. Every wide receiver and tight end on the 288 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 2: team last year was a rookie or a second year player. 289 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 2: And those guys delivered down the stretch. Another year of experience, 290 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 2: another year for Jordan Love. This is a situation where 291 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 2: the player has the leverage. The price is only going 292 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: to go up if he continues to do what he's doing. 293 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: Let's see if they can come to it accord prior 294 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 2: to training camp so that everybody can turn their full 295 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 2: attention to. 296 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: The regular season. 297 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, a veteran player got a deal with a new 298 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: team Earlier today, The Ravens agreed to terms on a 299 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: one year deal with former Bears All Pro safety Eddie Jackson. 300 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: He was released back in Fibruary. Thirty years old at 301 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 2: this point, but you know, the Ravens like those veterans 302 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 2: in their secondary. Now they add another one. Meanwhile, a 303 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 2: longtime NFL running back is called it quits.

He's their first 345 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 9: round big and he's got a big opportunity to replace 346 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 9: the role vacated by Calvin Ridley. Remember Ridley had that 347 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 9: last minute switch to go to the Tennessee Titaness, their 348 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 9: division rival, and that's over one thousand yards seventy six 349 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 9: receptions out of the door, and Brian Thomas has an 350 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 9: opportunity to get that role very quickly. Trevor Lawrence loves 351 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 9: to throw the deep ball, and it just so happens 352 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 9: that Brian Thomas one of his best skill sets is 353 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 9: creating vertical separation down the field. 354 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 7: I talk with coaches this all season. 355 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 9: They discussed how everything they saw on tape at LSU 356 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 9: has shown up early in OTAs his speed, his ability 357 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 9: to separate, and I can't wait to see him pass 358 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 9: going against number one defenses in training camp. I was 359 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 9: at LSU's pro day where everybody was talking about Melik 360 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 9: Neighbors and Jaye Daniels, and I had one GM just 361 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 9: rating to me about Brian Thomas. 362 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 7: He said, I see Brandon Iyuk in this game. I 363 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 7: think what he can. 364 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 9: Do in the NFL is a lot more than what 365 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 9: he was asked to do in LSU, and he can 366 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 9: be a number one receiver sooner than later. And tom 367 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 9: last thing, I talked to one Jaguars coach about Brian Thomas. 368 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 9: He had one nugget of constructive quitter's criticism. He said, 369 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 9: I want him to be more vocal. He's been so smart, 370 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 9: he's getting so much, but he's quiet. And I don't 371 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 9: know about you, tom My. Coaches and teachers had the 372 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 9: opposite complain about me. They said I wouldn't shut up, 373 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 9: and I was less than one percent of the talent 374 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 9: that Brian Thomas was, So I think he'll be all right. 375 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 2: And here's the thing that was a real comparison that 376 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 2: I heard the same thing through the course of the process, 377 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: which was if you just look at the measurables on 378 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas, you look at Brian Thomas's highlight reel, it 379 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 2: arguably is as good or better than Malik Neighbors. But 380 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 2: Malik Neighbors was the in that program. He was the 381 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: one who wanted the ball. He was the emotional leader. 382 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 2: Brian Thomas the play was up and down. He didn't 383 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: always see him exude that type of passion. So it'd 384 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 2: be fascinating to see how the dynamics kind of work out, 385 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 2: especially because there is a big void for somebody to 386 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 2: step forward as that number one wide receiver. Meanwhile, Trevor Lawrence, 387 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 2: we know he got paid, he got the fifty five 388 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 2: million dollars per year. His own play has been inconsistent 389 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: at times. The Jaguars offense didn't play well down the 390 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 2: stretch last season. Heading into twenty twenty four, Cam, what 391 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 2: are they looking for out. 392 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: Of Trevor Lawrence. 393 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, big money. 394 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,120 Speaker 9: Trevor comes with big expectations, and look, that's the reality 395 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 9: of their situation, the perils of pressure and expectations. Jaguars 396 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 9: fans expect them to get back to where they were 397 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 9: in twenty twenty two. The highlight of the Trevor Lawrence 398 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 9: and Doug Peterson are in that second half of the 399 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 9: season where they made the playoff one, they won a 400 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 9: playoff game, and last year they took a step back. 401 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 9: They collapsed late in the season, and so Trevor Lawrence 402 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 9: has talked about that and he said, I accepted as 403 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,919 Speaker 9: the franchise quarterback. I don't feel any extra pressure. But 404 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 9: the one thing he does need to work on is 405 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 9: his turnovers. He's had sixty turnovers in his first three seasons, 406 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 9: most of any quarterback. And while he's shown a lot 407 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 9: of potential he's a really good quarterback. To get to 408 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 9: that great level with some of the elite quarterbacks that we. 409 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 7: Talk about all the time, those turnovers have to take 410 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 7: a dip. 411 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 9: And talking to the people in that building, they believe 412 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 9: sometimes it's just him being a superhero trying to do 413 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 9: too much at times, and they hope this year with 414 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 9: him being more vocal in the offense, being more comfortable 415 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 9: and having more experience than he can take the safer 416 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 9: route at times. Remember Trevor's not even twenty five yet 417 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 9: so even though he's big money, he's still learning and 418 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 9: they thinking you're four, he can elevate and see that 419 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 9: next level of his game. I can't wait to get 420 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 9: to do Vault because one early thing to watch will 421 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 9: be his chemistry with those receivers Brian Thomas as we discussed, 422 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 9: but also Gabe Davis. 423 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 7: Coming in filling in as well. 424 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 9: How early do they click with those two fast outside receivers. 425 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 9: We know he's going to be throwing the ball to 426 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 9: Christian Kirk and Evan Ingram, but those other two that 427 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 9: could be the key to unlocking how far is Jaguars 428 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 9: team can go and if they can steal that division 429 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 9: back from the Houston Texans, who. 430 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 7: Have had a lot of hype this offseason. 431 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: Cam stick around. 432 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 2: We're going to talk with you about another former number 433 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 2: one overall pick in just a little bit. But first 434 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 2: let's talk a little bit about another highly drafted quarterback 435 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 2: from a year ago. That is Anthony Richardson of the 436 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts, who made four starts as a rookie last season, 437 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 2: got injured in three of them. Season ended he had 438 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 2: shoulder surgery. Everything seemed to be heading into the right direction. 439 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 2: Did miss the last day of mini camp. Sounds like 440 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 2: they just threw a ton of balls the day before 441 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 2: decided to hold him back. Richardson said himself that he's 442 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 2: been feeling really good as we get set to head 443 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 2: into training camp. 444 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: Here, Steve Anthony Richardson, year two. 445 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: Job one obviously, don't take those hits, stay on the front. 446 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 2: What else can he do if he accomplishes job one? 447 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 6: Well, first off, you know, Chris ballad general manager, said 448 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 6: he's going to be a full go when they start 449 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 6: training camp, So that's a good sign. Like you said, 450 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 6: the durability protecting himself. But Shane Stike and his head 451 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 6: coach is showing to be a very creative play designer, 452 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 6: so they're going to do some things to get him 453 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 6: on the move but also play him in the pocket. 454 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,239 Speaker 6: The thing that Anthony Richardson has to live up to 455 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 6: is nine and eight. That's the record that they had 456 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 6: last season when he wasn't there most of the time 457 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 6: when Gardner Minshew was playing quarterback. They don't want to 458 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 6: dip below that line there, which would put him below 459 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 6: five hundred when he's supposed to be the answer to 460 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 6: their problems. They don't have some of the drama they 461 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 6: had last year. Tom remember this time they had Jonathan 462 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 6: Taylor wanting a contract extension coming into training camp. 463 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 7: That was an issue. 464 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 6: It's all calm seas right now if they're our seas 465 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 6: in the Midwest, Indianapolis. So Anthony Richardson, he's got an opportunity. 466 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 6: You're seeing him right here just doing an RPO. He's 467 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 6: running it, but he's got to protect himself. What he 468 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 6: does is that's not going to go away. That's part 469 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 6: of their offense. It's part of what they're going to 470 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 6: be able to do because he is such a special 471 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 6: athletic talent. But again, just approve the accuracy, stay on 472 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 6: the field. I think Shane Stiken and the supporting staff 473 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 6: are going to help him. 474 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 7: Part of that supporting staff. 475 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 6: That defense, that defense is stacked. They had Laotu lot 476 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 6: to off the edge to combine with Putty pay at 477 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 6: Sampson abucom they could get a lot of takeaways to 478 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 6: get Anthony Richardson some more possessions. 479 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 2: Cam as he says, has Duval covered. I'm going to 480 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 2: be in India on I believe August fifth excited to 481 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 2: see Anthony Richardson two point Oh are you excited to 482 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: see some NFL football this season?

What does it hold 492 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 2: for a defense and some of its bright young stars 493 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 2: like that guy Jermaine Johnson.

I can't wait 508 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 10: to pull it off the lote. 509 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 2: So obviously we you know, we see a lot of 510 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers there, but I'm glad we got your face 511 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 2: in that little hype video because this defense top to 512 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: bottom looks like it's set up to be among the 513 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 2: NFL's best. What do you see being around that team 514 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 2: throughout the course of the spring, and what's your expectations 515 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 2: for this season? 516 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,640 Speaker 5: I mean, you said it there. 517 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 10: We're looking to be the NFL's best, and there's not 518 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 10: a doubt in our mind we are. So we just 519 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 10: got to build on what we did last year. And 520 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 10: you know, we do a great job of, you know, 521 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 10: holding no excuses. So whatever the case may be, we 522 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 10: have to prevail. And you know, it's hard for a 523 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 10: team to beat if they scored zero points, So that's 524 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 10: always the goal. 525 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 2: So Robert Sala, I know we's spent more time working 526 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,479 Speaker 2: with the offense, being around the offense in those meetings 527 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: for the course of the offseason. Tell me about Jeff Oldbrick, 528 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 2: a guy who probably doesn't get talked about a lot 529 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 2: Becauseola has got a defensive background, But I know from 530 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 2: just talking to people around that building that he's a 531 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 2: guy who's really valued. 532 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 5: One hundred percent. 533 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 10: I mean I was just in there today talking to him, 534 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 10: and I mean he's a guy that's done it at 535 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 10: a high level and has been successful doing it. 536 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 5: So it's always. 537 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 10: Easier when you have a coach like that, you know, 538 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 10: leading you because you know you've they've done it and 539 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 10: they've done it at a high level. So yeah, I 540 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 10: mean that speaks for itself. Let alone kind of how 541 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 10: he enters the day every single day with a you know, 542 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 10: a great head on their shoulders and a great outlook. 543 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 10: And I mean he's a guy that's hitted me of 544 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 10: just getting through, you know, and battling triumph, you know 545 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 10: what I mean. So I'll just look up tremendously to 546 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,520 Speaker 10: him and you know how he operates for sure. 547 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: All right, So let's talk about that quarterback number. Eight. 548 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 2: We got all four snaps from him last season. He 549 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 2: was there through most of the spring activities. What do 550 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 2: you see right now at Aaron Rodgers. 551 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 5: First ballot Hall of Famer. That'll never change. 552 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 10: So, like you said, four snaps into the you know, 553 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 10: twenty twenty three season, we lost him and that was 554 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 10: a huge hit. But I mean, like you said, he's 555 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 10: been at all the voluntary stuff and he's been balling 556 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 10: being here, and so I mean, I'm just excited to 557 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 10: play with him. I grew up watching them, and you know, 558 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 10: I'm excited to be his teammate, and i know he's 559 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 10: going to come through for us, and you know, my 560 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 10: goal is to just come through for the team. 561 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 2: You grew up though, Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Were you a 562 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 2: Vikings fan? Were you rooting against Aaron Rodgers all those 563 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 2: Packers years? 564 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 10: I couldn't help it. I couldn't help but do that. 565 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 10: And you know, being a Vikings fan back then was 566 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 10: pretty hard. You know, he always got there but didn't 567 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 10: really make anything shake. So, I mean, Aaron's been dogging 568 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 10: guys in the league for quite a long time now, 569 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 10: So I'm just excited. You know, I'm going to be 570 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 10: on the right side of it, and you know, backing 571 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 10: him up. 572 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: Well. 573 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 2: Obviously a lot was made of Aaron not being at 574 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 2: the two days of the mandatory mini camp. He was 575 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 2: traveling at the time. Coach Sall said it was on 576 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 2: excuse how much of it all did the locker room 577 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 2: care about that? And how much if any, does it 578 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 2: impact he as he had in the training camp here. 579 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 5: Zero impact. I mean we didn't care. 580 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 10: He had stuff he had to handle, and like you said, 581 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 10: he's been at all the voluntary stuff, So it doesn't 582 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 10: really make much sense to sit there and scrutinize a 583 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 10: guy that's been at all the things he doesn't have to, 584 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 10: especially a first ballot Hall of Famer that you know 585 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 10: a lot of people would think that, you know, why 586 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 10: would you have to go to that or why would 587 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 10: you go to that? Still, but I mean he has 588 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 10: been and he's been stepping up and being the leader 589 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 10: for this team as everybody expects him to be and 590 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 10: he expects of himself. So I mean there's zero impact. 591 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 10: We know he's he's airing on and off the field, 592 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 10: and you know he's going to be a great leader 593 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 10: that everybody looks up to and you know, continue to 594 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 10: be so. 595 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: So tell me about yourself here, Jamine. 596 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 2: I remember we first met on the practice field down 597 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 2: in Mobile, Alabama at the Resa Senior Bowl. You you 598 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 2: had a long road to get to this point, to 599 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 2: get into the NFL. Seven and a half sacks last season. 600 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 2: What's next? Where do you go from here? 601 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 7: Go up? 602 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 5: Progress? One percent? 603 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 10: I always like to say that, you know, the slope 604 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 10: to you know, progress looks like this. It doesn't look 605 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 10: like this. So if you're staying the same, you're getting worse. 606 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 10: So the goal is to just keep getting better and better. 607 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 10: And uh, you know my mangal is to just be 608 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 10: be everything and then some for my team and you know, 609 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 10: do my job and then a little bit more. 610 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 2: You finally, you finally got your pick six, right, so 611 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 2: we're gonna we're gonna be adding to that, even catch 612 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,120 Speaker 2: the balls up the jugs machines, Like, what what's next 613 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 2: year for you? 614 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 10: One hundred percent?

It was not 699 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 2: an easy path to get there, and yet once again 700 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 2: Kansas City on top. 701 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: Can they make it three in a row? For more? 702 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: In the state of the AFC West, Let's rank. 703 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 2: Welcome in Adam Rank to the insiders along with me, 704 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 2: Tom Peliicero rank. The Chiefs rookies have reported. The veterans 705 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 2: are in camp tomorrow. What are you looking for? What 706 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: is the state of the Chiefs as they enter this 707 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 2: three peak push? 708 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 3: Well, you heard Patrick Mahomes say it right there. 709 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,959 Speaker 8: He wants number three and a big reason why he's 710 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 8: firmly in the goat chase, chasing down Tom Brady as 711 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 8: the best quarterback of all time. 712 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 3: And I think it comes down to those two guys. 713 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 8: And now Patrick Mahomes has an opportunity to do something 714 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 8: that Tom Brady's never done, which is. 715 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 3: Win three Super Bowls in a row. 716 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,239 Speaker 8: And it's interesting when people talk about this, they're like, well, 717 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 8: look how far Patrick Mahomes has come already. You're like, yeah, 718 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 8: Tom Brady did the same thing, Like he won three 719 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 8: and four years, he lost two super Bowls, won two 720 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 8: Super Bowls, lost a Super Bowl, won a Super Bowl, 721 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 8: went to Tampa Bay and won a Super Bowl. So 722 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 8: Patrick Mahomes still has some work to do, but to 723 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 8: do something that hasn't been done in the NFL standards, 724 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 8: And I don't want the Packer fans coming after maybe 725 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 8: like we've won three NFL shut up, we got it. Okay, 726 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 8: you won three NFL titles in the twenties, the nineteen twenties, 727 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 8: we get it. 728 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 3: But this is something that's unprecedented. 729 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 8: And if there is one guy that I have faith 730 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 8: in doing it, it's Patrick Mahons because last season, as 731 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 8: you said, it wasn't an easy road. They didn't even 732 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 8: need home field advantage and they still walk through that 733 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 8: AFC like nobody who's business. So I'm not putting it 734 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 8: past them, but it is very difficult. The last team 735 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 8: that he became close Dallas Cowboys nineteen ninety four. They 736 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 8: got all the way to the NFC Championship Game, felled 737 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 8: by the forty nine ers, and that was as close 738 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 8: as anybody's ever gone. 739 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: Adam, we gave you your Bears super fan time. 740 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 2: At the top of the show, I was told this 741 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 2: was going to be analyst Adam Rank, So no more 742 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 2: Packer shots. 743 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 1: Let's focus on the ball for. 744 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 2: The rest of the segle. Let's go to Denver. Okay, 745 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 2: let's go to the Broncos. Another year here with Sean Payton. 746 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 2: What is the state of this Denver team that obviously 747 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 2: has had some big changes, including at the quarterback position. 748 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 3: I think it all comes down to the quarterback and 749 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 3: what they have with bow Nicks. 750 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 8: This is going to be determining what happens with the 751 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 8: future of this franchise and really the legacy of Sean 752 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 8: Payton moving forward. The one thing about this quarterback is 753 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 8: that we've seen him for a long time. Like this 754 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 8: guy was playing college football against Justin Herbert for crying 755 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 8: out loud, and now he's going to be going out 756 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 8: and being in the same division as him. And listening 757 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 8: to some of the quarterbacks. 758 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 3: Talk about him. I was watching something with Jordan Palmer. 759 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 8: And they were kind of comparing him to a more 760 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 8: athletic Drew Brees, and I'm like, Okay, let's let's pump 761 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,239 Speaker 8: the brakes a little bit. It's kind of like when 762 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 8: you hear comics talking about a comics comic, like, yeah, 763 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 8: that's usually not the greatest thing. But he has done 764 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 8: some nice things during his college career, and if this 765 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 8: one pans out for the Broncos, I think it'll kind 766 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 8: of help alleviate some of the problems they've had over 767 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 8: the last couple of years. They do probably need to 768 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 8: upgrade the wide receiver room a little bit. Jerry Judy's 769 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 8: obviously not there, but would love to see somebody step 770 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 8: up alongside of Courtland Sutton. Maybe maybe it's you know, 771 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 8: I'm now blanking on the guy's name, the rookie from 772 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 8: last year. I can't even think of it anymore. I 773 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 8: lost it because I was so upset in fantasy. He 774 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 8: started the first four games and then the Sean Payton 775 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 8: got rid of him. I'm drawing a blank. Yeah, Marvin Moore, 776 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 8: I want Marvin Mins the Steve though. 777 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: I was gonna let you, I was gonna give you 778 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 1: more time. 779 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 2: Oh man, all right, you mentioned Justin Derbert in there. 780 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 2: The Chargers. Obviously, Jim Marbaugh is coming in. It's a 781 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 2: massive story It's massive expectation because Jim Harborough's first year 782 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 2: with the forty nine Ers, they go thirteen and three, 783 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 2: They roll right into the NFC Championship game. 784 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: What's the state of the Chargers? All those superstars and. 785 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 2: Now the head coach is coming off a national title. 786 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a big thing. 787 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 8: I mean, outside of a special teams blunder, the forty 788 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 8: nine Ers would have been in the Super Bowl and 789 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 8: they went to overtime against the Giants and ended up 790 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 8: losing that game. Giants go on to beat Tom Brady 791 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 8: and all that good stuff. Jim Harbaugh has made quick 792 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 8: turnarounds in San Francisco and of course with Michigan. But 793 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 8: to me, this seems eerily similar to what he had 794 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 8: when he took over Stanford. Stanford was kind of a 795 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 8: downtrodden program that he needed a few years to get 796 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 8: them up to speed. They started off four and eight 797 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 8: in his first year at Stanford and then eventually became 798 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 8: one of the powers in the Pac twelve and then 799 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 8: going on and having some run as a national powerhouse 800 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 8: as well. 801 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 3: And I believe that's what we're looking at with the Chargers. 802 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 8: They have won too many holes to fill before they 803 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 8: truly become one of the elite teams in the AFC, 804 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 8: which I truly believe will happen. 805 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 3: Jim Harbaugh is that good. This team will be good. 806 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 8: Drafting Joe All was a huge move for them because 807 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 8: you want to be good in the offensive line, and 808 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 8: I think that's going to be a huge thing with 809 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 8: him and Greg Roman, and it's probably to the detriment 810 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 8: of Justin Herbert's fantasy. But at the same time, Kamari Vadal, 811 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 8: by the way, I want to throw this out to 812 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 8: Kamari Vidal is a player to watch. I've already switched 813 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 8: over Tom like I'm finishing this state of the franchise, 814 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 8: and then you would think, like after doing thirty two 815 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 8: of these, they'd give me a day off. Now I 816 00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 8: got to go back and start doing fantasy profiles starting 817 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 8: on Monday. Kamari Vidal is somebody to watch out. But 818 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 8: I think the Chargers will be there eventually, but probably 819 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 8: not this year. 820 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 2: Kamani Vindol, the grandson of Hank Aaron. You've got him 821 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 2: as a fantasy target, and he was a fancy target. 822 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 2: This is a whole other segment. 823 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 3: That's a whole other stinger. We can do that on Monday. 824 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 3: I'll come back. 825 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: Sound good, I'll be here, You'll be here. Well, we 826 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: got nothing but time. The Raiders. 827 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,439 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, they've had a wild few years here, from John 828 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 2: Gruden to making the playoffs with Rich Vasacci, to Josh 829 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 2: McDaniels to Antonio Piers. Now Pierce has the full time 830 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: head coaching job, doesn't. 831 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 1: Necessarily know who is starting quarterback is yet. What's the 832 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: state of the Raiders. 833 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 3: Well, I really like what the Raiders did with Antonio Pierce. 834 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 8: It kind of harkens back to the glory days of 835 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 8: Al Davis, who would go out there and get these 836 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 8: coaches who might have been a year or two off 837 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 8: of the prize, like they weren't like household names, Like 838 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 8: he picked up John Madden and then Tom Flores and 839 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 8: then Mike Shanahan and then even John Gruden Lane Kiffin 840 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 8: like he always had this knack of finding these these 841 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 8: coaches to become the leaders of this team. 842 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 3: And that's what the Raiders are at right now. 843 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 8: And I thought that the team responded last year with 844 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 8: Antonio Pierce. The offense was better, the defense was better. 845 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 8: DeVante Adam actually seemed happy for a moment. I'm sorry 846 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 8: that's a borderline Packers shot, but it's not. 847 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 3: I like what the Raiders are doing. 848 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 8: I truly believe that Gardner Minshew is kind of an 849 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 8: upgrade for them. 850 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 3: I really do. I thought Gardner Minshew. 851 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 8: You talked about it in a segment previously about how 852 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 8: well he played for the Colts last year. I believe 853 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 8: he becomes the quarterback for the Raiders and they're very 854 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 8: competitive this season. 855 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: Real quick, before we let you go, Rank, Marvin Mims 856 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 2: is draftable in fantasy. 857 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 8: Yes, Marvin Mims was great for the first four weeks 858 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 8: and then, for whatever reason, disappeared and I was not 859 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 8: happy about it. I want a full Marvin Mims season. 860 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 2: We're gonna make you disappear until Monday.

This year a disaster all 873 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 2: around the Carolina Panthers in twenty twenty three, but could 874 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 2: it take a big step forward in twenty twenty four. 875 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 2: Camp Wolf's get to join next to talk about some 876 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 2: new players who might help Young take a big step forward. 877 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 1: That's next on the Insiders. 878 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 2: The Panthers rookies reporting for duty, Xavier Lee Ghent, Jonathan 879 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:40,439 Speaker 2: Brooks and the rest of the crew. The worst team 880 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 2: in the NFL is no way around it. Two and fifteen. 881 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 2: Last season, the Bears ended up with the number one 882 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 2: overall pick. 883 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: They get Caleb Williams. 884 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 2: Panthers hoping for a big step forward from last year's 885 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 2: number one pick Bryce Young. As we welcome back in Cameron 886 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: Wolf with me Tom Pellisero here on the Insiders, Let's 887 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 2: focus on the rookies, Cam with those guys coming to 888 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 2: work to obviously they need all the help that they 889 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 2: can get around Bryce Young and certainly Dan Morgan use 890 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 2: some of the relatively limited resources he had to try 891 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:09,240 Speaker 2: to show up those positions. 892 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 9: Yeah, Tom, let's not sugarcoated This was the worst offense 893 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 9: of football last year. They needed help badly, and Zay 894 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 9: were Lagette their first round pick. They traded up in 895 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 9: the first round to get him. It's going to be 896 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 9: a huge weapon for Bryce Young. He's a huge target, 897 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 9: six twenty two pounds and I don't know what I'm 898 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 9: more excited about to hear his deep southern draw that's 899 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 9: when viral on social media, or to see him catching 900 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 9: passes For Bryce Young, they needed this level of talent infusion, 901 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 9: and it's really going to be an important period early 902 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 9: in training camp to see him because he missed a 903 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 9: lot of OTA's with a hamstring injury and all with 904 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 9: mini camp, and so they want to see how he 905 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 9: can develop that chemistry of Bryce. Adam Thielen was their 906 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 9: leading receiver last year. He'll be thirty four the start 907 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 9: of this season, and so Lagett has a big opportunity 908 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 9: to take hold of that offense along with Deontay Johnson. 909 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,720 Speaker 9: And the other guy I'm eager to see is Jonathan Brooks, 910 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 9: running back they drafted in the second round. He's coming 911 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 9: off of twenty acl in November, so he's going to 912 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 9: start the training camp on the non football injury list 913 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 9: coming back from that injury, but Dave Canalis said a 914 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 9: month ago that at some point this summer before the season, 915 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 9: they hoped to work him back in. Once he's ready 916 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 9: to go, he could quickly emerge as the lead back 917 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 9: in that offense. Dave Canallis wants to lean on the 918 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,240 Speaker 9: run game, and so Brooks and Legett could be huge 919 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 9: weapons for Bryce Young for years to come. 920 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 2: Speaking to Dave Canalis, he is there for a lot 921 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,240 Speaker 2: of reasons in Carolina, but the biggest one fixed Bryce 922 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 2: Young because that was not the Bryce Young we saw 923 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 2: last season that had made himself the number one pick 924 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 2: during his time at Alabama. 925 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: How do they do that? 926 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 2: What are the keys as we move forward here for 927 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:43,240 Speaker 2: Bryce Young and Carolina? 928 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,279 Speaker 9: Yeah, Tom, talking to people in that building, that's the 929 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 9: big thing I've heard is that they're aligned in their 930 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 9: communication with Bryce Young. Last year, the situation was there's 931 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 9: a lot of different coaches with different visions and it 932 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 9: became clutter, too many cooks in the kitchen. But Dave 933 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 9: Canalis and his staff they've worked together in a lot 934 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 9: different spots and they've really been aligned in how they're 935 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 9: speaking to him, their vision of what they want to 936 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 9: have for him. And I talked to a key Panthers 937 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 9: figure earlier this offseason and he said the biggest thing 938 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 9: he noticed in Bryce is that he's much more upbeat 939 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 9: and positive. And he said that's something we didn't see 940 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 9: a lot last year, and that kind of mirrors Dave 941 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 9: Canalis if you've seen him. 942 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:20,800 Speaker 7: He's very upbeat and positive. 943 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,280 Speaker 9: And remember he coached Baker Mayfield as his offensive coordinator 944 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,359 Speaker 9: and play caller in Tampa Bay last year. 945 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 7: The hope is that this year he can unlock Bryce. 946 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 9: One big thing that Dan Morgan the GM did for 947 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 9: Bryce is get two big guards and Robert Hunt and 948 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 9: Damian Lewis to be able to protect that interior. Bryce 949 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 9: is a short quarterback. You need that interior in the 950 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 9: pocket to be good. He was sacked sixty two times 951 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 9: last year. He's got to have a shot to survive 952 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 9: this year, and they think he'll be in a better 953 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 9: position to succeed. 954 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: Cam Thank you very much. 955 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 7: Bruce. 956 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 2: Shown's pretty accurate quarterback. Could he maybe be an Olympic 957 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 2: flag football type of guy? Who would you pick to 958 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,000 Speaker 2: be the quarterback of the flag football team? Steve Which 959 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 2: and I have some idea is we'll bring him to 960 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 2: you next on The Insiders.
