And uh, I think we're gonna 13 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 2: throw it to Drake when he starts talking. 14 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: Drake, may, are we gonna do that? 15 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 5: I don't know. 16 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,879 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Matt. No, we're not gonna do that. 17 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 2: Okay, so you'll catch that later on Patriots dot com. 18 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: But I would say high energy. Would you agree? 19 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 6: It's a fun practice. Yeah, it's a fun practice for 20 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 6: this time of year. And I was saying to you earlier, 21 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 6: I don't know what it all means. I don't know 22 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 6: if it means anything about, you know, how many games 23 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 6: they're gonna win or anything like that. But fun and 24 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 6: competitive are the two words I would use. There's an 25 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 6: energy of offense makes a play, defense makes a play, 26 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 6: and iron sharpening iron and all that good stuff that 27 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 6: I don't know if we had that in the last 28 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 6: couple of years. It's like more like the defense made 29 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 6: five good plays to every one offensive play, right, and 30 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 6: now it's a little bit more. Even so, it's it's 31 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 6: good to see another really sharp day. I thought for 32 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 6: Drake may I thought he looks better and better with 33 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:33,279 Speaker 6: each practice. 34 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean what I saw on eleven on eleven's 35 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: things look smooth. They looked in rhythm, and we're not 36 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 2: just talking about little dump off passes. We're talking about 37 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: you know, you know, ten twelve yard passes down the 38 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: middle of the field, a lot of in cuts and 39 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: you know I saw Hunter Henry caught a nice ball 40 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: and stride. 41 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: Kyle Williams might have had the play of the day. 42 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, Yeah, that was That was the best one of 43 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 6: the day. It was from Josh Dobbs and just ran 44 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 6: right up the the middle of the field between the 45 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 6: two safeties and looked like ye had the linebacker is 46 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 6: trying to stay underneath him, that the safety's over the top, 47 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 6: and he just ran right through the entire defense for 48 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 6: about a forty yard bomb, So that's what you want 49 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 6: to see from him. 50 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, he just definitely beat the coverage and I was like, 51 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: who's eighteen u s. Kyle went yeah, good, yeah, good, Yeah, 52 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: I'm glad. 53 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 6: Yeah. And then Treyvon Henderson had a touchdown in the 54 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 6: low red zone work that they were doing towards the 55 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 6: end of practice, a little angle route on a linebacker. 56 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 6: So both rookies. We were looking the part today, so 57 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 6: that was good to see. And I thought Will Campbell 58 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 6: had some reps against Keon White where he held his own. 59 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 6: So just in general, a good day for the offense. 60 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 6: And there haven't been a lot of times that we 61 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 6: can come on the show right after practice and say 62 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 6: good day for the offense. So we're moving in the 63 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,119 Speaker 6: right direction on that side of the ball. 64 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 1: Yeah. 65 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: So they were out there for what about ninety minutes 66 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 2: or so? Yeah, yeah, and like we said, I sense, 67 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: you know, really positive energy. Rabel was out there like 68 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 2: he always is, bouncing around. You know, you definitely hear 69 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 2: him almost after every play in eleven eleven saying something. 70 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels is his usual self. 71 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 2: So just a lot of good energy out there a 72 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 2: lot of positive plays and you know the defense did 73 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 2: well too. 74 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, they had some moments as well, and Carlon Davis 75 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 6: had a pass breakup. I thought early on in practice 76 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 6: there was a decent amount of pressure on the quarterback. 77 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 6: They seem to clean that up a little bit offensively 78 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 6: as practice went on, but you still see, you know, 79 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 6: Milton Williams, Christian Barmore, those two guys especially were giving 80 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 6: them some problems early on. There was another one where 81 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 6: it looked like an assignment issue. Jabrill Peppers just came 82 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 6: in unblocked on the Bulleitz. Things like that that they 83 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 6: were still working on early on in practice. Jotted down 84 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 6: a few stacks and their quotes that maybe it looked 85 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 6: like there was enough pressure on the quarterback there. But 86 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 6: in general, I think this offense is the ball is 87 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 6: starting to come out on time. The rhythm of the offense, 88 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 6: Drake may looks a little bit more comfortable than what 89 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 6: we saw at the beginning of the spring. So they're 90 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 6: starting to at least be able to hold their own 91 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 6: against a good And. 92 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: I'm sure you're wondering, you know, with Stefan Diggs there, Yes, 93 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,839 Speaker 2: he was taking part in positional drills, not taking part 94 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: in the team drills yet, he's not quite ready. I 95 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: looking at his right leg, it's not it's I don't 96 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 2: see you know, I'm not a doctor, Yeah, but I 97 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: don't see full extension. And definitely the muscles aren't where 98 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 2: the left one is yet. So he's not ready to, 99 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 2: you know, fully participate. But he's out there and he's 100 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 2: looking good. 101 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 6: Yeah, And I think the encouraging part from a mental 102 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 6: rep standpoint is when they go into those walkthroughs, he 103 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 6: is participating in the walkthroughs, so they're getting him up 104 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 6: to speed in terms of what they're running from the 105 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 6: playbook perspective. So hopefully that means that once he is 106 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 6: cleared medically and is one hundred percent healthy and he 107 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 6: gets thrown into the team drill portion, he's not behind 108 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 6: from that perspective of knowing the playbook and knowing the 109 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 6: routes he's going to be running and all that kind 110 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 6: of stuff. So they did enough of that over these 111 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 6: last couple of practices that he's been there, whether it's 112 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 6: eleven one to eleven's in the middle of the field 113 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 6: walkthroughs or red zone work today, routes against air he's 114 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 6: still out there participating in those things, so hopefully he 115 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 6: can hit the ground running. 116 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 7: Large media contingent today, I would say, nice media contention. 117 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: It was a cool day. 118 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: You know, it wasn't particularly warm, so perfect day for 119 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 2: practice for players standpoint a lot of you know, overcast, 120 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: so that not a lot of sun, but no rain 121 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: and you know, i'd say around sixty degrees or so, 122 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 2: so it was just a perfect day for guys to 123 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: get out there and ball. 124 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 6: As you would say, it kind of felt like that, honestly, 125 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 6: like watching those red zone periods towards the end of 126 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 6: practice that were competitive live periods like that was fun 127 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 6: like that that had some juice and there had some 128 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 6: energy there and some back and forth the guys chirping 129 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 6: guys and things like that, and that's what you want 130 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 6: to see. I think. You know, the sequence land larising 131 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 6: on the wheel route, you know, over the shoulder from 132 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 6: Josh Dobbs, followed right by the pick six from Isaiah Bolden. 133 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 6: So the offense had a moment to sell break and 134 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 6: the defense at a moment to give it back to 135 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 6: the offense. And this time of year, that's just what 136 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 6: seaking of. 137 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: Juice, I mean, what's going on. 138 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 3: Not much practice is great. 139 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 4: I'm in a weird position because I haven't talked to 140 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 4: anyone about this practice yet, so I feel a little 141 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 4: bit weird, like watching the competitive piers for its probably 142 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 4: just jump in without I thought it was a good 143 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 4: I thought it was a good day for Drake May. 144 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 3: I don't know if anyone else has said that yet. 145 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: Ye completed a lot of passes. 146 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 4: I just I wasn't There were times when I'm just wondering, like, 147 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 4: is the pass rush kind of turning it off after 148 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 4: a second here or what like. 149 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 3: I don't know. 150 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 4: Some of the periods to me just didn't seem as 151 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 4: competitive as I thought they've been in the past, perhaps 152 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 4: with just the pass rush stuff. But uh, I just 153 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 4: thought for him, great day overall. He just looked brilliant command. 154 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 4: It looked like a continuation of of OTAs UH continues 155 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 4: to progress, and that was a big thing we talked 156 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 4: about on the pregame show of you know, is he 157 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 4: going to continue to take those steps? So I thought 158 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 4: it was a great day for him. Throughout the day, though, 159 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 4: I think was was it was Josh Dobbs to Kyle 160 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 4: Williams down the field. I don't know you were off top, Evan. 161 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 4: How far was I like fifty yards forty? 162 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was, it was. 163 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 2: It was a bomb. It was a really nice throw. 164 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 2: The good thing about it, he's just split the d 165 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 2: and just beat them. It was he just flat out. 166 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was pretty. 167 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 3: It was pretty play. 168 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 6: Yeah. 169 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 3: That probably play of the day overall. But you know, 170 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 3: just a lot of consistency from Drake. 171 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 8: Uh. 172 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 4: One other question I had for you have is, uh, 173 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 4: it was his last red zone period. I think somebody 174 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 4: caught one along the back line of the end zone. 175 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 6: Is Kendrick Borne was born again? Yeah, that's who it was. 176 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 3: I just couldn't quite. 177 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 6: See that was an incomplete in mind. 178 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 4: No, Yeah, because I knew there was some debate about 179 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 4: that one. I was like at the weird angle. 180 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 6: It was also late, so I just thought it was 181 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 6: kind of a win for the defense. Rep. Yeah, put 182 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 6: it that way. 183 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 4: Otherwise, I mean the you know, they were in the 184 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 4: mid zone, mid midfield a little bit. It seemed like, yeah, 185 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 4: maybe one throwaway. Otherwise it was he was on. I 186 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 4: mean he was finding guys three nine, eighty four, eighty 187 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 4: five three. 188 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: Again, good day, good day for Drake. 189 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 4: I think it was encouraging to see him continue to 190 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 4: progress some looking command of the team. 191 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, there was a throw early on in practice to 192 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 6: Kaishan Booty is a nine stop you know, run down 193 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 6: the field nine steps stop on the dime, and Drake 194 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 6: may threw it on like the sixth step instead of 195 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 6: the ninth step and Booty turned around and the ball 196 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 6: was just right on him. And those are the types 197 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 6: of you know, the timing anticipation of the throws that 198 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 6: you want to see from from Drake that I thought 199 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 6: was is getting better and better with every spring practice 200 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 6: that we have seen from him. So I love anticipatory 201 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 6: throws like that where he throws it before the guy's 202 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 6: breaking And that's another one of those we were talking 203 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 6: about on the show before you know, where it adjusts 204 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 6: based off the coverage, so both guys got to be 205 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 6: on the same page.

And it's kind of like you know, when 437 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 6: ye as a lacrosse player, and like it's like goalie, right, 438 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 6: like you only have one or two of them, right, So, 439 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 6: like every time they call out the package for the 440 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 6: full back, it's like there's only one guy that can run, 441 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 6: so it's you know, if they're gonna have it, then 442 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 6: it's gonna be him. Probably. 443 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 7: It's similar with Jack Westover again, it's just some opportunity reps. 444 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 1: You never know, like. 445 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 4: Sometimes they think the coaches just throw guys in there 446 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 4: to see, you know, if they can swim with the 447 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 4: big guys and look, don't look out of place. But 448 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 4: it just catches your eye when all of a sudden 449 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 4: there are guys like Jack Westover, brock Lampy, you know, 450 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 4: with all guys you've been seeing out there. So doesn't 451 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 4: mean that they're making a roster push or anything, but 452 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 4: at least they're on the radar and clearly the coaches 453 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 4: are taking notice of them and giving them some opportunities. 454 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 4: But interesting with all the receivers coming back Kendrick Bourne. 455 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: Nice day, you know, a bunch of catches stuff. 456 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 4: For that one. 457 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: I guess he was out of bounds. 458 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 4: It was tough for Michael because you know, the defensive 459 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 4: guys on the dline are all going, nope, nob he's out, 460 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 4: he's out. 461 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 3: And the offensive guys are spreading celebrating. So hard to tell. 462 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 4: But with those guys back in the mix a little bit. 463 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 4: Good to see him make some plays. Pop Douglass made 464 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 4: some plays, Hunter Henry made some plays. So it's just 465 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 4: you're starting to see the offenses starting to come together 466 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 4: a little bit, and it's just it's reassuring. I know 467 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 4: it was coming to this point, but anytime you get 468 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 4: out to that first ota and you saw some interceptions 469 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 4: from Drake, it's easy to overreact. 470 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: And be like, oh God, what are we doing? 471 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 3: We blow up the offense. 472 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 4: It kind of worked last year and this but I 473 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 4: think the signs are all pointed in the right direction 474 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 4: with Josh. 475 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 2: So we will be doing this again tomorrow practice. We'll 476 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 2: be out there at noon. Does Rabel have a press. 477 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 6: Conference again tomorrow? 478 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 2: I think okay, So he'll talk again at twelve fifteen. 479 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: Then we'll turn our cameras to the field and we'll 480 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,239 Speaker 2: be up there until they tell us to turn our 481 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 2: cameras off. Then we'll watch practice and we'll come back 482 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 2: here in the studio at around two thirty and do another. 483 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: Wrap up show. 484 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 4: I thought it was pretty fun today, from which is 485 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 4: our perspective of doing the show this way. Sometimes it's 486 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 4: hard to talk and take things in at this same 487 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 4: time we talked through some of the early individual periods 488 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 4: and so it wasn't you were messing up. But then 489 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 4: for the team periods, we were able to get down 490 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 4: there and really take that stuff in, which I think 491 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 4: is we'll have to. 492 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 2: Come up with some storylines because we can't repeat what 493 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 2: we said today, so we'll come up with I wish 494 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 2: we could do the eleven on eleven, but I understand. 495 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, they don't want all that on film. 496 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 6: They don't want people like me seeing that on film. 497 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 3: You're breaking it down twenty five times now. 498 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 4: It's but yeah, I think as you watch more of 499 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 4: these Rabel practices, you start to see a little to 500 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 4: a little bit of the method to the madness. I 501 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 4: don't know, maybe if it's just me getting you know, 502 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 4: six or seventh year now actually watching every practice, but 503 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 4: you start to see, all right, they practice it in 504 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 4: the red zone, then they get together and they play 505 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 4: it in the red zone, and they practice in the midfield, 506 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 4: and then they get to you know, so you see 507 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 4: how everything fits together. 508 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's no different from a Belichick. Yeah 509 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 2: that's something you said. Maybe it's just me starting. 510 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 6: This is getting back to more I would say what 511 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 6: the rhythm of practice is similar to a Belichick practice, 512 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 6: whereas last year they had the West Coast coaches on 513 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 6: the offensive side and those guys just slow everything down 514 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 6: right where it's like play talk about it, play talk 515 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 6: about it, and like, you know, this practice is really 516 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 6: like everybody to the side. The coordinators are relaying the 517 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,719 Speaker 6: plays through the headset and it's like a game and 518 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 6: we're just running plays. 519 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: And just keeping the speed up. 520 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's not to say that there's that's the wrong 521 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 6: way to do it where you know last year, because 522 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 6: that's what a lot of those coaches do from that tree. 523 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 6: So it's not like it hasn't been successful, but there's 524 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 6: definitely a more volume and more pace to this type 525 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 6: of practice and what we saw last year. 526 00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 2: It's like we'll talk about it after in the classroom. 527 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah right, all right, let's. 528 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: Go to the phone. Sean'son Vancouver. What's up, Sean, Yeah, 529 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: let me just pick up. 530 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 10: I just wanted to clarify the whole Wings thing of 531 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 10: the wings actually don't use drumsticks, those are really big. 532 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 10: They use drummet which are straight, so they get the 533 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 10: bunch get confused with the drumpsticks. Right, that's the thing. 534 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 10: It's not it's not actually leg it's it's part of 535 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 10: the wing, is. 536 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,959 Speaker 1: The drum man, right, and they're attacked, right, they get separated. 537 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, exactly one session I have about practice and 538 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 10: maybe he said I didn't hear. Did Carlton Davis participate today? 539 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? 540 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 6: He did a pass break up? 541 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 10: Yeah, yep, he did o great, okay, terrific. 542 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 543 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 2: I think on Patriots dot com we had a nice 544 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 2: picture of he and Gonzo running down the field. 545 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: Together, so, uh cool. Yeah, that's going to be a 546 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: good duo. 547 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, they had Hunter Henry tried to do one of 548 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 6: those sit on the goal line and just kind of 549 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 6: be big, and carl Davis got those long arms in 550 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 6: there and broke up the pass. 551 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 4: The length stands out to me seeing him in person, 552 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 4: once he gets you know, the pads on until you 553 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 4: get to this point a little bit of a sense 554 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 4: of the size of these guys. 555 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just he's a long dude. He's gonna make 556 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: a compliment. 557 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know Polk didn't participate all in eleven eleven, 558 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 2: but he looks like you put on some good weight. 559 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 6: Yeah. 560 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 3: There are quite a few guys, I think they're looking 561 00:22:58,800 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 3: good shape. 562 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 4: I mean, Polk, it seems like he is maybe in 563 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 4: the middle of the rehab process because he's not quite 564 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 4: there for the live periods, but in the in like 565 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 4: the walk through stuff, he'll put it on a yellow 566 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 4: opinion and go. So he's not as far as way 567 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 4: as some of the guys like on when you he's 568 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 4: not really doing much. Kyle Duggar not doing much yet, 569 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 4: the rookie Jared Wilson, He's not really doing much right now. 570 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 4: So there's definitely some guys that are still working their 571 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 4: way back and that maybe exkews some of the reps 572 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 4: a little bit. 573 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 2: Barton Poland writes in should we be worried about the 574 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 2: DC situation with Terrell Williams having a health scare, being 575 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 2: absent from the team activities and only working remotely so far? 576 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 2: Do you think this is something we should be more 577 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 2: concerned about? It feels like the topic isn't getting much attention, 578 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 2: but a formation coordinator not being there for the first 579 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 2: few months seems pretty important to me. 580 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 6: It's a fair point. I mean, I don't know, the 581 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 6: word concern has a lot is heavy, but he has 582 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,199 Speaker 6: a health thing and you never want to like be 583 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 6: alarmist about that, like he's got to take care of 584 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 6: his health, right, you know, that's some important thing, but 585 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 6: it's not nothing. You know, certainly that's not the setup 586 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 6: that they had in mind. And Zach Kerr's mostly qualified. 587 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 6: He has had some interviews in the past for defensive 588 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 6: coordinator positions, so it's not like he's totally unqualified to 589 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 6: be in that role. But everyone I think we're waiting 590 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 6: and seeing if Terrell Williams is going to come back. Yeah, 591 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 6: I think. 592 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 4: It's it's a little reassuring to know that he's coach 593 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 4: with at Kerr. 594 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 3: I think he's coach with cletmc millan. 595 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 4: As well, Scott Booker stuff, so they have experienced together. 596 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 3: So and I also you know that Terrell. 597 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 4: Williams is said he's been around, he's been on Zoom, 598 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 4: so I think the team is familiar with him. 599 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 3: I think it's good that. 600 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 4: They have guys that are experienced with him though, because 601 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 4: if this was a little bit of a Frankenstein staff 602 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 4: like it was last year, where you had a mix 603 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 4: of new and old, then if you wonder are they 604 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 4: delivering the same message. I still have confidence that they 605 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 4: are and I also just wonder if maybe a positive 606 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 4: for this is that the team's going to rally around 607 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 4: and when he does get here, there you know, they 608 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 4: know he's been dealing with something. 609 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: I wonder if he's going to come here having lost 610 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 1: a lot of weight. 611 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, yeah. I think the one big thing 612 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 6: to me with Williams isn't necessarily about them installing the 613 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 6: system and all that, because, like due said, all these 614 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 6: coaches have been in the system rables here, so he's 615 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 6: going to make sure the system gets installed properly. But 616 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 6: to my knowledge, Joe Williams doesn't have a ton of 617 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 6: play calling experience, and you know that he's going to 618 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 6: be the play caller that's the plan or the setup, 619 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 6: and so these practices kind of serve as practice for 620 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 6: the coaches too, and he gets in there and it's 621 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 6: a live practice. And Josh McDaniels is one of the 622 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 6: best play callers in the league. On the other side, like, 623 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 6: that's really good practice against McDaniels. To go up against 624 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 6: him and try to out you know, chess match and 625 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 6: out smart Josh McDaniels in some of these calls. That 626 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 6: is valuable. So in that respect, I think that's probably 627 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 6: the most important thing is you know, relaying the calls, 628 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 6: the communication and knowing how to you know, go up 629 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 6: against the coordinator like Josh, who's gonna mix it up 630 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 6: and give you different looks and things like that. So 631 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 6: it's tough. You can't really replicate that in any other way. 632 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 2: I would assume like he's getting the tape of practice 633 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 2: and yeah, you know, he's keeping up to speed at 634 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 2: least with what's going on for sure. 635 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 4: I think Evans is that that's probably the best point 636 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 4: of what you should be concerned about. 637 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: And small seat concerned. 638 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 4: Still plenty of time to catch up a couple of 639 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 4: sets of joint practices. 640 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 1: He'll get some experience. 641 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 4: But you know, even expanding upon that, it's hearing the 642 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 4: voice in your aid for the defenders and you know, 643 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 4: knowing the cadence of how they want things done. So 644 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 4: it's I'm not too worried about it. I think it's 645 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 4: things that can all be ironed out. It's just it's 646 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 4: just not ideal. 647 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 6: Yeah, and calling defense is different than calling offense, Like 648 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 6: calling defense is a lot I know easier. Honestly, frankly, 649 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 6: it's easy man, Like, Yeah, that's not there's only so 650 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 6: many defenses you can play, and it's very situational, like 651 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 6: we kind of play our base stuff on first and 652 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 6: second down, then you get after it on third down. 653 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 6: So like it's not like offense where you could be 654 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 6: having these like ten word calls and things like that. 655 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 6: It's it's much more streamlined than that. 656 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the more complicated thing on defense is 657 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,880 Speaker 2: getting your groupings right, getting your subs right. 658 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that too, And I'm sure that Terrell Williams, 659 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 4: like I said, you know, it's hard to really get 660 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 4: a sense of these guys to see him in person. 661 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: It's probably killing him not to be able. 662 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 3: To see these guys on field and really get a. 663 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: Sense for how they're moving. You can watch the film. 664 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 3: But at the same time, there's something special. 665 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,360 Speaker 4: About being there, feeling the vibe that these guys give 666 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 4: off when they play together. 667 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 6: Was it was it Boyer, one of the assistant coaches 668 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 6: the Patriots had over the years, was apparently the best 669 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 6: spotter of what the personnel the offense was running on 670 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 6: the field. 671 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: Maddy p said that, and it. 672 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 6: Was like he was automatic to get the defense in 673 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,719 Speaker 6: the right personnel package, and usually that guy sits up 674 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 6: top in the in the sky booth and radios. 675 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 1: There's a skill to that. Yeah, there really is. 676 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to Robert who was in Henderson, Nevada. 677 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: What's up, Robert? 678 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 8: Hello?

It's like, well, 818 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 6: if it's third and seven, then I'll take the eight yards. 819 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 6: And that's gonna be the type of guy that he's 820 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 6: gonna be. He's not going to be Courtland Sutton. He's 821 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 6: not going to be a six foot four outside receiver 822 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 6: that's gonna like catch jump balls fifty yards down the field. 823 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 6: It's not gonna be his game. 824 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 4: I just I just don't get the premise though, that 825 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 4: somehow that that receiver would be better for Drake May's 826 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 4: development than a route technician who's gonna get open on 827 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 4: third down. 828 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 3: Like, to me, the way you're keeping confidence building. 829 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 4: Right, Like Diggs is kind of, like I said on 830 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 4: the pregame show, like he just is going to get 831 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 4: you out of that rut and give you somebody you 832 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 4: always say, Fred they're easy to defend, Like Diggs is 833 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 4: somebody that on third down you probably are gonna have 834 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 4: to figure out where he is and have a plan 835 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 4: to cover him and stop him. I know we've watched 836 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 4: plenty of Patriots games against when he was with the 837 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 4: Bills and even. 838 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: Last year when he was in the Texans. 839 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 4: Where you're like, third down, make sure you cover digs, 840 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 4: and then it's like Yeah, this little, you know, quick 841 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 4: route that's perfectly executed and the ball's right on him 842 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 4: and it's first down. 843 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 3: That to me seems like it's it's gonna be a 844 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 3: great bonus for Drake. 845 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 6: There's no doubt that there's a question about the overall, 846 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 6: like the explosiveness still of this offense. Like they they 847 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 6: have guys like Hunter Henry and Stefan Diggs that within 848 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 6: that twenty yard box of the line of scrimmage can 849 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 6: make plays. Is there anybody that's going to break out 850 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 6: of that twenty yard box? And maybe it's Kyle will it's. 851 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 3: Going to bring that up. 852 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 1: We saw that today. 853 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 4: So if that's an element that Kyle Wims is going 854 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 4: to bring and Drake may ain't afraid to throw those 855 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 4: deep balls. 856 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,360 Speaker 3: That might come together the way that people want. Now 857 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 3: who's the one, who's the two? 858 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it could be a very hard offense. 859 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 2: Audrey said on the show that we did it looked 860 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 2: like we were at a morgue. 861 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: She said, is that a covered body in front of 862 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: you guys? So I don't know what it looked like. 863 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 6: The black criticism that's okay, said Sor Right, Okay, Sor right, 864 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 6: let's get back to the phones. 865 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: We'll go to Kendall in North Carolina. I hate Kendall. 866 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 10: Hey, what's going on, guys doing all right? 867 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 11: Yeah? 868 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 10: Well, and will y'all impressed with the cal Williams his 869 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 10: day today and just overall, what y'all spring and I 870 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 10: take it up there. 871 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,479 Speaker 2: I appreciate it, Okay, thanks Kendall. I mean, we saw 872 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 2: him make the catch of the day today. 873 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 6: The juice is real, Like, there's definitely burst and speed 874 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 6: to his game. I'm sure that there's a lot of 875 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 6: little details that he's still getting, you know, caught up 876 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 6: on and learning at this you know level of football. 877 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 6: I mean, but there's no doubt that he moves well, 878 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 6: like I mean, we saw it today, ran right through 879 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 6: the middle of the defense and nobody touched him, you know, 880 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 6: so that that's definitely encouraging. I would say the same 881 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 6: thing about Trevon Henderson. Now, is he grasping it? You know, 882 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 6: is he running the right routes and is he doing 883 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 6: the right things at all the time? Like I don't know, 884 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 6: you know, Josh McDaniels would have to tell you that, 885 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 6: but I think you're encouraged by the way he moves. 886 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 5: It's gonna be a. 887 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,959 Speaker 1: Big joint practice guy. Like, how's he get off the line? 888 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 11: Like? 889 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 4: Does that release pass translate to physical press corners? 890 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 6: It's a great point. That's the number one thing is 891 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 6: you know when they get into the pads and they 892 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 6: start pressing him. He's a smaller guy, He's one hundred 893 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 6: and ninety pounds, Like, is he gonna be able to 894 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 6: get off press at this level? If not, then he's 895 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 6: you know, you're gonna have to maybe play him inside 896 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:10,919 Speaker 6: and off the line of scrimmage a little bit more. 897 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 2: All right, let's next go to Colin in Connecticut. What's 898 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 2: up Colin? 899 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: Colin? Hello, Yeah, Hello. 900 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 11: A couple of questions. I'll make it click. What's your 901 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 11: biggest worry with the defense? I know you've mentioned big 902 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 11: plays being a possible worry, but anything else. And then 903 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,959 Speaker 11: you guys mentioned Jared Wilson and Mike and Winu hooking 904 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 11: about an injury. 905 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're they're just rehabbing. Yeah, they're they're rehabbing right now. 906 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 4: They're limited there, yeah, limited, you know, we're working through stuff. 907 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 4: They're in some drills, they're not others. I would say 908 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 4: my two biggest concerns are speed off the edge and 909 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 4: rangey free safety like coverage on. 910 00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 5: The back end. 911 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was gonna say pass rush off the edge. Yeah, 912 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:01,439 Speaker 6: I think that's right. 913 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 1: Now. 914 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,320 Speaker 6: I'm pretty confident that Harold Andry is going to be solid. 915 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 4: He seems very excited in the post game post practice interviews. 916 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 4: He seems like he's re energizing it. 917 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm sure he's going to be solid. He's been 918 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 6: a solid run defender even last year, throughout his entire career. 919 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,959 Speaker 6: Are they going to have enough juice off the edge? 920 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 6: You know, they're gonna get the pressure up the middle 921 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 6: from the two guys, you know, Barmore and Williams. But 922 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 6: who's going to clean up? Who's going to get the 923 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 6: edge rush? You know that's going to be. 924 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 4: You can expect both those edge guys to get one 925 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 4: on one matchups, probably because Barmore and Williams are probably 926 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 4: gonna draw some double teams in attention, and those guys 927 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 4: have to be able to take advantage of those of 928 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 4: those one on one. 929 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 2: I mean, my my fear is like we brought all 930 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 2: these free agents in and they look good, they seem 931 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 2: to fit. It's the right guys, but rarely when you 932 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: bring in that many like do they all hit? 933 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 6: Yeah? 934 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 2: And I think for this team, we need them kind 935 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 2: of all to hit, you know, the higher ones. You know, 936 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 2: we need Spelane to be good, we need Judie would 937 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 2: be good, We need you know, obviously Williams to be good. 938 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: You know, they all have to hit for this defense 939 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: to be good this year. 940 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 6: It's a great point, like you get teams. You know, 941 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 6: last year, the Tennessee Titans spent a bunch of money 942 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 6: in free agency, and they won as many games as 943 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 6: the Patriots. Right now, the Washington Commander spent a bunch 944 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 6: of money in free agency, went to the NFC Championship game. Yeah, 945 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 6: and when you when you have this model, there doesn't 946 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 6: seem to be a middle ground there where it's like 947 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,759 Speaker 6: we won eight games right right, It's like you're either 948 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 6: a playoff team because of it or it didn't work 949 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 6: and it blew up in your face and there's really 950 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:32,840 Speaker 6: no in between. 951 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: You know, throw Carlton Davison there too, Like sure, I 952 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,879 Speaker 2: mean these are all good players that you brought in, 953 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 2: but that doesn't always mean that every free agent that 954 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 2: you bring in, you know, hits. 955 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you're putting a lot on a lot 956 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,720 Speaker 4: of these guys. It's remarkable to me. I mean, you guys, 957 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 4: have you guys, Fred and Paul had some experience watching 958 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,959 Speaker 4: coaching changes and wholesale changes on defense. You know last 959 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 4: year there wasn't wholesale changes on defense. It was in 960 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 4: large part the same defense. So that's it's a new 961 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 4: experience for me now looking out there and seeing just 962 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 4: so many new faces on the defensive side of the ball, 963 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 4: not only in. 964 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,040 Speaker 1: Support roles, but really calling the defense. 965 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:11,440 Speaker 4: And like the key guys are like Robert Splaine and 966 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 4: Milton Williams and Harold Landry, Like, yeah, these are the 967 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 4: key pieces to the defense this year that we have 968 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 4: no real experience watching it. 969 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 6: I mean Roberts, yeah, Robert Splain is like probably gonna 970 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 6: be your green dot. 971 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:21,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 972 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 6: And he's never played a game in the Patriot uniform before. 973 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 6: Now he's been in this defense before, so he has 974 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 6: some experience with it. But like he's your starting Mike linebacker, 975 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 6: so you think he's the one calling the defense. 976 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 4: I just I have more confidence too, because I think 977 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 4: we've washed away the feeling of like Bill Belichick's defenses 978 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 4: are so complex and there's gonna be week to week, 979 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 4: we're gonna change and we can be anything. They don't 980 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 4: really seem interested in that. They're just like, we are 981 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 4: going to get after you really fast and be aggressive. 982 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 4: You might land a couple punches on us, but I promise. 983 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: You we're going to lay some on you. It all 984 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: starts with Gonzo and Davis. If they can do their jobs, 985 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: if they can truly be. 986 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 2: True one on one cornerbacks, and obviously they've shown that 987 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 2: they can in this league, that frees up everything. Then 988 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 2: you don't have to be so you know, game plan specific, 989 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 2: because we're going to take out two of your guys 990 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 2: and we're going to free up the rest so that 991 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 2: you know, we don't have to double you know, certain 992 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 2: players and that that is so freeing for a defense 993 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 2: to have two shutdown corners on your team. 994 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it buy it buys time for the 995 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 4: edge rush you know that we're talking about. It also 996 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 4: means that they don't have to run as many games, 997 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 4: and I think that's you know, when defenses start to 998 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 4: get in trouble and can't get pressure conventionally, when guys 999 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 4: can't win one on one matchups, that's when you start 1000 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 4: going to you know, stunts and loops and all that 1001 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 4: stuff that I'm sure they're going to do anyway. I mean, 1002 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 4: that's you know what verybol and Williams did in Tennessee. 1003 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 4: But you just don't want to have to be overly 1004 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:47,840 Speaker 4: relying on it. You don't want to have to be 1005 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 4: able to have to scheme up pressure. You want to 1006 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 4: be able to produce pressure. The interior guys should not 1007 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,359 Speaker 4: have a problem doing that, But you just don't want 1008 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 4: defense or offenses to be able to say, protect the middle, 1009 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 4: make sure he can step up. They don't have the 1010 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 4: juice to get around the edge on us or just 1011 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 4: step up in the pocket. As long as we hold 1012 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 4: with those two guys, we're gonna have enough on the pockets. 1013 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 2: But you know, you talk about complimentary defense, and you know, 1014 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 2: the pass rush compliments the coverage. The coverage compliments the 1015 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 2: pass rush. And I think we're from the from the 1016 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 2: get go. We've got two guys that can really set 1017 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 2: the tone now and juries are going to happen, you know, 1018 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 2: so you always have to be concerned with depth. That's 1019 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 2: a concern for every team. So you know, if one 1020 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 2: of those guys goes down, you know that that's an issue, 1021 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,959 Speaker 2: and I'll look at linebacker. I think I'm a little 1022 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 2: bit worried about depth at linebackers as well. 1023 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 6: I would say, really at all three levels of the defense. 1024 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,360 Speaker 6: Like I feel like they've made a lot of progress 1025 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,720 Speaker 6: on both sides of the ball with the starting eleven 1026 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 6: on both sides, and you start to put the you know, 1027 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 6: the projections together and you're like, all right, this is 1028 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 6: a pretty good starting defense. But in pretty much all 1029 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 6: areas they have questions about depth. You know, they really 1030 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 6: don't have much, you know, into your defensive line depth. 1031 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 6: You're going to start to get into you know, the 1032 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,880 Speaker 6: Jeremiah Farms is and you know, maybe the Joshua Farmer 1033 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 6: and like, yeah, you know, rookies playing and things like that. 1034 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 6: But I'm sure that's true for a lot of teams. 1035 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,200 Speaker 6: And we're just we are hyper focused on this team, 1036 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 6: but on on offense too, Like if Will Campbell gets hurt, 1037 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 6: god forbid, Like who's playing its Madarian Lowe back out 1038 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 6: there left tackle, right, Like they don't necessarily have that 1039 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 6: layer built up yet, And you start looking at like 1040 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 6: the two deeps and stuff. 1041 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 4: I mean, I just you take Landry out, he take 1042 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 4: splane out. 1043 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 3: He taken Zalis out, like. 1044 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a couple of key threads and every like 1045 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 4: you said, every team has those things. But that's why 1046 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 4: you look at a guy like Jack Gibbons maybe or 1047 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 4: one of the young guys would would get a chance. 1048 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 1: But you can only rebuild so much. In what I mean, 1049 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 1: it is. 1050 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 2: Hard to have quality depth in the NFL throughout. I 1051 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: think where teams really get hurt is when you get 1052 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 2: that slew of injuries at one in one area. Then 1053 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 2: it's like almost possible. But on a good team, well coached, 1054 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 2: everybody knows what they're doing, so you can weather that 1055 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 2: storm if they're sprinkled in different places, you know. So 1056 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,840 Speaker 2: if it's just a farm's coming in, you know, and 1057 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 2: it's not two guys having to come in, then you 1058 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,840 Speaker 2: know a lot of times good teams will they'll be 1059 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 2: able to handle that, you know. 1060 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 6: But my favorites is the Djenga theory. It's like you 1061 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 6: know Jenga, Yeah, and it's like every piece isn't the same, right, 1062 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 6: every Like they're all different spots and stuff like that. 1063 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,400 Speaker 6: So each team has like, you know, pieces that if 1064 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 6: you pull it out, the tower is gonna come down. 1065 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 6: Like Drake May gets pulled out the tower it goes to. 1066 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 6: But like the are certain players that like it will 1067 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 6: be wobbly, but you can probably like get away with it, 1068 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 6: you know, I think, you know, Drake may Gonzo, I 1069 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 6: would say at this point, Will Campbell, just because of 1070 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 6: what they have behind him at left tackle is a 1071 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 6: very you know, important piece, and you know, maybe a 1072 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 6: couple of. 1073 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 2: Why they call them pillars, pillar falls, the house falls, 1074 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 2: Destiny writes in I was having a discussion with some 1075 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 2: friends about the GPS tra that the athletes use, the 1076 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 2: ones that look like they're wearing a bra. What do 1077 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 2: you guys think about the look of it? Well, I 1078 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 2: mean it's underneath, you know, like the soccer players more 1079 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 2: before the football player. It's kind of got a sports 1080 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 2: bra vibe. 1081 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 1: It does, you know, it certainly does. 1082 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 6: It's not something I considered myself with too often, but 1083 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 6: I do. Like he was asked again, verybel was asked 1084 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,720 Speaker 6: again today about the role of analytics. And we often 1085 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 6: think about analytics in terms of like fourth down decision 1086 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 6: making and stuff like that, but the sports sciences is 1087 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 6: maybe analytics adjacent that we don't bring up as much, 1088 00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 6: And that type of stuff has come a long way 1089 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 6: in terms of like almost being able to be predictive 1090 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 6: about certain injuries, like especially like soft tissue and stuff 1091 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 6: like that, where it's like this guy's had a few 1092 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 6: too many live practice reps and like we're worried that 1093 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 6: he's starting to get some wear and tear, so let's 1094 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 6: pull him out of practice, you know a little bit 1095 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 6: this week and or something along those lines. It's kind 1096 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 6: of cool, like they're able to really almost guess, you know, 1097 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 6: be predictive about anticipating injuries. You know, you obviously can't 1098 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 6: anticipate all of them, but some of them, which is 1099 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:08,000 Speaker 6: kind of cool. That's what that thing does. Sports problem. 1100 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: But I think Destiny was just worried about what the 1101 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:12,919 Speaker 1: look it does. 1102 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 3: It could probably improve a little bit. It could probably 1103 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 3: be like a necklace or something. 1104 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 6: Well there's sensors on it, right, Like it's a hard 1105 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 6: monitor and like stuff like that. 1106 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: Yeaheah. 1107 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 2: You got to have something that's very tightly fit and 1108 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 2: doesn't you know, impede any of the other equipment. 1109 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 1: So I guess it makes sense that it's style that way. 1110 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 4: It is pretty remarkable that, I mean, we look at 1111 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 4: the portal or what she's a blanket on the name 1112 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 4: the next gen stats that we watch and like the 1113 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 4: next day when those that stuff comes out, all the 1114 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 4: stats and everything that they they're able to tabulate max speed, 1115 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 4: you're not even you don't even see all of them. 1116 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,240 Speaker 1: I even imagined. 1117 00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:50,720 Speaker 4: But it's it's, you know, it's just really interesting sometimes, 1118 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 4: like who ran the fastest yesterday? 1119 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,280 Speaker 1: And like there is you know, it's cool. 1120 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 2: Yep, let's see who was this? This is Ram? Yeah, 1121 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 2: Ram is writing in he was, he said, listening to 1122 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 2: your podcast and your references to the great seventies team, 1123 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 2: I thought about a player who I rooted against but 1124 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 2: wish was ours as a comparison for Drake May. 1125 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,280 Speaker 1: And that's Baltimore's Burt Jones. 1126 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 3: Oh god, Burt Jocks. 1127 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 2: He threw for over three thousand yards in a fourteen 1128 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:27,279 Speaker 2: game schedule, twenty four tds, nine interceptions, logged over one 1129 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 2: hundred season passer rating only one of three in the seventies, 1130 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,479 Speaker 2: and won an MVP in seventy six. So he goes 1131 00:47:34,520 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 2: down the line as to you know why he did. 1132 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 2: But I hope he's not just Burt Jones, because Burt 1133 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 2: Jones really wasn't that mobile. You know, he was a 1134 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 2: pocket passer, but he says, these days, I think we 1135 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 2: want to see a contemporary icon in our own players. 1136 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 2: Drake May can't be Mahomes, Rogers, Alan or Jackson. He 1137 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,760 Speaker 2: has to craft his own identity. But in the past 1138 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,280 Speaker 2: there have been players who have had very similar skill 1139 00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 2: sets to May that have excelled in the most competitive eras. 1140 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 2: If May can grow into what Burt Jones at his peak, 1141 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 2: I think we should all be a static. 1142 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 6: We'll take it, I know. 1143 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:08,920 Speaker 3: I mean, he's no Burt Jones. 1144 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 4: We'll throw that a policy if he can pick that 1145 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,880 Speaker 4: one up. But yeah, no, I mean I like it. 1146 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 4: I mean it's just Drake. Drake May's got a car of. 1147 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:17,959 Speaker 1: His own way, no question. 1148 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 4: There's a lot of focus on him this year and 1149 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 4: his development and how does he do when the game's 1150 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 4: hanging in the balance, in the clutch? You know, those 1151 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 4: are those to me, are are the biggest questions that 1152 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 4: want to see him him answer this year to get 1153 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 4: the opportunity. Heard Abel bring it up again today in 1154 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 4: his press conference, seeing a clip of of being good 1155 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 4: enough to. 1156 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 1: Take advantage of bad football. 1157 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 4: That's the bar right now for this team, and I 1158 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 4: think if they can get to that point though they'll 1159 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:41,760 Speaker 4: win some games. 1160 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 6: I hate like looking ahead to the schedule because things 1161 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,440 Speaker 6: change drastically, and like teams come out of nowhere and 1162 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 6: they're good when you think they're going to be bad. 1163 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,800 Speaker 6: But if they can do the bare minim of taking 1164 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 6: advantage of bad football, like Rabel keeps bringing up, the schedule, 1165 00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 6: sets up that they can win a lot a lot 1166 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 6: of that. But do it now right right, and it 1167 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 6: might not. It might be like the twenty twenty two 1168 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 6: season where there's some rock fights in there and it's 1169 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 6: not pretty. But like if they do that at the bottom, 1170 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,760 Speaker 6: you know, that's their their bottom, you know their their floor. 1171 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 6: That's probably good enough for seven or eight wins with 1172 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 6: this schedule, Like I mean. 1173 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 4: I think you need to too, Like I just I'm 1174 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 4: like looking at the players out there and remembering some 1175 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 4: of the training camp practices that I watched in twenty 1176 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 4: twenty and twenty twenty one and twenty twenty two and 1177 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:26,279 Speaker 4: twenty twenty. You know, they're building a little better here now. 1178 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 4: Like it just it feels like there's something going on 1179 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,840 Speaker 4: where it's not just like, oh please God save us 1180 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 4: from Ander Stevens, and it's Travion Henderson is in back 1181 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 4: of him now, and you know it's not Oh God, 1182 00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 4: Kendrick Bourne, please save us, like Stefan diggsists here now. 1183 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you're starting. 1184 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 6: A number one. 1185 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 4: That's one ben't see. But it's there's a lot more excitement. 1186 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 4: There's a lot more reason to believe. I think in 1187 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 4: the past you were kind of counting on the coaching 1188 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 4: staff Bill Belichick specifically, would pull this together and somehow 1189 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 4: make a winner out of these guys. It's not as 1190 00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,320 Speaker 4: much of a lift. It feels like there's more talent 1191 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 4: on this team across the board, and then there's more speed. 1192 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 4: Frankly too, I think you just you feel that kind 1193 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 4: of coming off the practice field. 1194 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 3: Again. 1195 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 4: We'll see if it's translated, but I just I think 1196 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 4: there's a lot of reasons to be more optimistic right 1197 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 4: now than you might have been in years past, just 1198 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 4: based on the personnel. 1199 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,719 Speaker 6: Well, the good news about going four and thirteen back 1200 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 6: to back years as you pick up the top of 1201 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 6: the round to get down right, right right, So you 1202 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 6: picked Drake May, you pick Will Campbell, and then you're 1203 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,359 Speaker 6: in the top of the round every round. So you're 1204 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,400 Speaker 6: picking you know, hot players that like Travon Henderson and 1205 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 6: Kyle Williams, Like these are guys we talked about and 1206 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:34,120 Speaker 6: guys that were on everybody's boards and everybody was excited about. 1207 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 6: And when you're picking in the thirties and then you're 1208 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 6: picking again in the sixties and you have that high 1209 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,760 Speaker 6: pick every single round that if you hit, and theory 1210 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 6: you should start to hit on some of these guys. 1211 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 2: So, yeah, I didn't hear any you know, reaches this 1212 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 2: year during the draft, you know, like. 1213 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:50,959 Speaker 1: Now that was a reach. 1214 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 6: I mean, you know, Woodson probably the first one and 1215 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 6: really the only one. 1216 00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the only one that was. 1217 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 4: But I mean as we watch him a little bit, 1218 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 4: you understand what they were looking at. And he again 1219 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 4: was involved today. And just to echo what I said 1220 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 4: in the in the first part, you know, still looking 1221 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,320 Speaker 4: at Swinson and ponder like can one of those guys 1222 00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 4: be one of the answers to the thing we're talking 1223 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 4: about with concerns about age. 1224 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 2: So, like I said at the top of the show, tomorrow, 1225 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 2: we're going to be doing it again. Twelve fifteen is 1226 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 2: when Rabel starts his press conference. We'll start our cameras 1227 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 2: at noon, so we'll you know, hit up the field 1228 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:26,720 Speaker 2: and see guys arriving. 1229 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:27,800 Speaker 1: Then we'll go to Rabel. 1230 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 2: Then we'll go to practice, and we'll keep the cameras 1231 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 2: on and we'll be on until they tell us to 1232 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,319 Speaker 2: turn the cameras off, and then we'll be back in 1233 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 2: the studio tomorrow at two thirty. 1234 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 1: To wrap it up again. 1235 00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 2: So I guess it's public knowledge now that they're not 1236 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 2: going to practice on Wednesday. 1237 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, they emailed media. Yeah okay, it sounds like 1238 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 6: they're going to be working on the field doing some 1239 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,720 Speaker 6: conditioning and stuff, but not an actual practice. 1240 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so and we're not invited. We are not, Okay, 1241 00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:57,720 Speaker 2: all right, So. 1242 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 1: It'll be two days of this. 1243 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:06,360 Speaker 2: Uh. You know, you wonder like what's going to be 1244 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 2: a good camp in Rabel's mind, Like, you know, what 1245 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:13,320 Speaker 2: will they do today and tomorrow that afterwards he'll say, Okay, 1246 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,359 Speaker 2: that was good, We're on the right foot. 1247 00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 1: What are the things he's looking? 1248 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I would just highlight one small thing, which 1249 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 4: was I think we had one defensive off sides today 1250 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 4: that was a penalty. But we haven't seen a lot 1251 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 4: of false starts, mental errors. The sprints happened, I know, 1252 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 4: Mike Reese, I think wrote about it in his notes 1253 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 4: this weekend, like it's Drake May calling out the cadence, 1254 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,280 Speaker 4: then it's Rabel calling out the cadence working on starting 1255 00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:36,760 Speaker 4: on time. 1256 00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:38,800 Speaker 1: We'll see if that stuff translates. 1257 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 4: But I think when Rabel talked at the beginning of 1258 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,719 Speaker 4: these camps and again he said today, these are really 1259 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,880 Speaker 4: extension of OTA's, it's just about being on the same page, 1260 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,320 Speaker 4: not making mental mistakes, not making the same mistakes twice. 1261 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 3: And from what I've seen, it seems like they're progressing. 1262 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 6: Okay. You'd like to hope that when you end this 1263 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 6: that you have the foundation set of the playbooks on 1264 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,720 Speaker 6: both sides, so that when you get into training camp 1265 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:01,759 Speaker 6: you can have some fun, right, Like, that's when you 1266 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 6: can really start scheming stuff up and really start putting 1267 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,920 Speaker 6: in the fun stuff into the especially on the offense, 1268 00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 6: so can you get your basic install installed. And then 1269 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 6: usually the first couple of days of training camp is 1270 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 6: a refresher of what you did during OTA's. But at 1271 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,880 Speaker 6: that point there, once we get into the joint practices, 1272 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,480 Speaker 6: they're really starting to scheme stuff up, and it's not 1273 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 6: just you know, Frankly, a lot of the plays they 1274 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,480 Speaker 6: run are like high school teams run a lot of 1275 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 6: the same plays, right, so once you get to that level, 1276 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 6: you know, hopefully you're you're at a different level coming 1277 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 6: training camp, where As I think the last couple of 1278 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 6: years they were kind of stuck on basic install for 1279 00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 6: maybe a little bit longer than they wanted to be. 1280 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, we're going to wrap it up.
