1 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 1: Welcome to playmakers everyone. I'm your host, Haley Ellwood. It 2 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: is Week one of the twenty twenty two season. Wild 3 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,599 Speaker 1: that it is here. The Los Angeles Chargers open the 4 00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: season at home against the Las Vegas Raiders. And who 5 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: better to talk about this game and this one? Then 6 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 1: friend of the show, Chargers radio sideline reporter Shannon Farren. Shannon, 7 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: thanks so much for coming on. You're the always the 8 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: lovely Week one guest. If you will, I love it. 9 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,240 Speaker 1: I think I wear the same shirt every year too. 10 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Thank you for having me. This is very exciting. Yeah, 11 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: we're back at it. Football is here and I think 12 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: one of the craziest things is Raiders Week is kicking 13 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: off early this year, literally Week one is. I said, so, 14 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: I'll pose this first question. What kind of tone does 15 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: it set knowing that you're opening against a divisional opponent. 16 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: I think it would be a huge deal if it 17 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: was just an AFC West opponent. I think it's a 18 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,679 Speaker 1: huge deal that it is Los Vegas Raiders. And I 19 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: think it's an even bigger deal because of the way 20 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: the season ended. I think everyone sat in that loss, 21 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: sat in that game that the Chargers just needed to 22 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: tie to get in to the playoffs, you know, hearing 23 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert saying I've never wanted to tie so badly 24 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: in my whole life. It was a really rough time 25 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: coming back from that game, getting onto that plane, and 26 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: then sitting in it in the entire offseason. And when 27 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: you look at Week one and week two, it is 28 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: a one two punch for sure for this Chargers team. 29 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: When you have the Raiders coming to town and then 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: you've got to turn around and go to Kansas City 31 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: and play Thursday night primetime ball, They've got to start 32 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: fast and that is something that hopefully they'll be able 33 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,559 Speaker 1: to do despite the starters not playing in the preseason. 34 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: I know this is one of those things no one 35 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: really looks ahead, right, but we can because we're not 36 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: getting out on the field on Sunday, very quick turnaround 37 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: to week too, short week another divisional opponent. It's funny 38 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: you bring up Week eighteen. Obviously, with how the Charger 39 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: season ended last year, I've been talking to some guys players, 40 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: coaches for the season preview article that I'm writing, and 41 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: it's so interesting to hear their take on how that ended, 42 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: what it was like moving on from that and Brandon 43 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: Staley said, though every ending is a new beginning, and 44 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: this is the start of something new. I mean, and 45 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: they would play that game the way that they played. 46 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: They would go for it on fourth down the way 47 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: that they did. You know, talking with stations around the country, 48 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: they have opined and wondered, is Brandon Staley going to 49 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: stick to his guns when it goes for it on 50 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: fourth down? And you know he would. He absolutely will. 51 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: And the analytics people around the NFL say, he's kind 52 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: of like our trojan horse. You know, we all agree 53 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,679 Speaker 1: that that was the right call. That most of the time. 54 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: I think he was successful sixty five percent of the 55 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: time that he went for it on fourth down, that 56 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: this is the right call. He's taking all the shots 57 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: right now from the naysayers and the second guessers and 58 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: the Monday morning quarterbacks, but a lot of the analects 59 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 1: guys who this is where they this is their bread 60 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: and butter if they love it. You know, I made 61 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: a joke during that final preseason game in New Orleans 62 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: with my coming out a half stand up where I 63 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: got a chance to talk to Staley, and I said, 64 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: this halftime report was sponsored by the letter R. If 65 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: it was on Sesame Street. It would be brought to 66 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: you by that letter with Stalio, though in general I 67 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 1: always say the letter C would be his letter of 68 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: the day because conviction always comes to mind and competition 69 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: and all of that. But you know where he stands, 70 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: Like you said, you always know he's going to stick 71 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: to his guns. But moving on to just some of 72 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: the going back, I guess a little bit to some 73 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: of the off season moves that this team has made. 74 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: In my opinion, this is my ninth season, It's been 75 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: an off season like no other. What did you make 76 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: of some of those moves that the Chargers brought up? Well, 77 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: we saw a very upset coach Staley when you saw 78 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: the defense production last season, and he's a defensive guy. 79 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: You know, you look at what he was able to 80 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: do with the Rams and that was not going to 81 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: be okay, not for one minute for him to suffer 82 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: through a season like that. And the guys as well, 83 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: you know, Joey didn't feel good about it as well. 84 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: They knew that it was not a dominant performance and 85 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: that is exactly what this coach preaches is dominance and 86 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: being a dominant team. And they went out and they 87 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: got the pieces they got Khalil Mack, who coach Daily 88 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: has wanted from day one since he was in Chicago, 89 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 1: and you look at him on the other side of 90 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: the line, and we saw it in training camp, how 91 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: close Joey and Khalil are talking about just not football. 92 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: But I was just talking to Joey at the game 93 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: in New Orleans about how excited he is about Khalil's 94 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: new baby and how excited they're just they were instant 95 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: fast friends, and they have such different playing styles, which 96 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: really helps them sharpen their specific game as well. And 97 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: you look at what Joey was able to do when 98 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 1: there was Melvin Ingram across the way, and I think 99 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: that this pombo is going to be unstoppable. And because 100 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: they're going to be able to pressure the quarterbacks so much, 101 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna have j. C. Jackson flying around there making 102 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: people make mistakes. And I think that this defense overhaul 103 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: is huge, and I think it's going to be exactly 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: what the coach wanted to see when they made these 105 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: colossal moves. I mean, you look at this roster, like 106 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: you pointed out, and the talent, and I know the 107 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: coach doesn't like us to talk about how talented this 108 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: team is, because yeah, it's not just handed to them. 109 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: They do work hard and it is a hard working, 110 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: tough team. But when you look at the talent flying 111 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: around that field, it is going to be fireworks all 112 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: season long. So I love that you bring up Joey 113 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: and Khalil because to me, there's been so much talk 114 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 1: about Mac coming in obviously, but what it's done for 115 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: Joey too, And I actually just had a discussion with 116 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: him kind of the same, the same vibe that you 117 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: did about Mac for him as a guy who who 118 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: he said, I can talk to about anything. I can 119 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: talk to about football, I can talk to about life, 120 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: like Khalil's new baby. But the fact that Joey had 121 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: also mentioned if this happened younger in his career, he's 122 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: not sure he would have felt the same way about 123 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: it as he does now. He said he probably would 124 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: have felt more threatened back then, but now he has 125 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: more of a sense of self, he's more comfortable in 126 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: his skills as a player, and I think that's just 127 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: so interesting. And when you mentioned being fast friends, you 128 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: were down there on the sideline during these preseason games. 129 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: You mentioned starters not really playing really a lot, if 130 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: at all. But as you see these guys kind of 131 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: talk and chat and chit chat on the sidelines, what 132 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: was the vibe? What is the vibe of this team 133 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: right now? I loved it because the veterans were not 134 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: just there, They were engaged. They were standing like they 135 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: were chomping at the bit to get into that game. 136 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: They were the first to congratulate guys that were trying 137 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: to make this roster as they came off the field. 138 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: They were the first guys to console them if things 139 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: did not go well. You mentioned Joey and how mature 140 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: he's gotten over the years that we've seen him kind 141 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: of grow up and become an adult. And it's really 142 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: cool to watch Keenan Allen as well just become such 143 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: a strong leader on this team, and you know, going 144 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: and spend time with Josh Palmer and going and sitting 145 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: down at that wide receiver bench. You see it with 146 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert sitting down with Shane Day and with Chase 147 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: and with Easton going over all the plays. They were 148 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: all very engaged and like the coaches said this week, 149 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: this is a team that really likes each other. These 150 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: guys get along and that is an X factor, that's 151 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: not really an X factor, you know what I mean. Like, 152 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: we all know that great teams, legendary teams, they have 153 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: to have that chemistry, they have to have that brotherhood, 154 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: and that's definitely something that exists with this Chargers team. Yeah. 155 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: I was speaking with Staley yesterday and I asked him, 156 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: what do you want this team to be known as 157 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: this twenty twenty two team, and he said, A tight team, 158 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: a together team. And Joey had mentioned it feels like 159 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: some of these guys, you know, we mentioned Mac obviously, 160 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: but Sebastian, Joseph Day, Troy Reader, Morgan Fox, some of 161 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: these guys, Kyle Vannoy, Austin Johnson. He said, they feel 162 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: like they've been here forever. It's just so funny how 163 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: quickly it doesn't feel like this is the first year 164 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: that they've been here. And I think that's a great signed, 165 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: especially if you haven't even freaking played a game yet, 166 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: You've just been practicing together. That's such an excellent point 167 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: because I've seen guys be brought in who don't immediately 168 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: take like a fush to water when it comes to 169 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: forming those bonds right away. And you look at the 170 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: personalities though, of the guys that they brought in, right 171 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: like Bash, I mean, how is he not going to 172 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: make friends in that room? Right away? You look at 173 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: Khalil and how wonderful of a person he is, and 174 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: it's just it makes sense that they were very careful 175 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: about who they brought in and these leaders who who've 176 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: been there before, and even you know, rookie Isaiah Spiller, 177 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: he doesn't seem like a rookie, like he's got this 178 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: confidence like he's been here before. And you get that 179 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: from side to side down there, that that is just 180 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: exactly who this team is and they're here for each other. 181 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: So flipping into offense really quick before we go last year, 182 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: we're sitting here, we're having this conversation a week one 183 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: about Justin Herbert and what he did and what he 184 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: was going to do in year two and simple enough, 185 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: great things. But now as he gets into year three, 186 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: but the comfortability of him being in the second season 187 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: in this offense, what do you expect out of him 188 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: this year? They say the greats do of that in 189 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: year three for a quarterback, things slowed down. That's bad 190 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: news for the division of death. Okay, Justin Herbert, this 191 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: thing slowed down for him, he starts having a good time. 192 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: That's the last Justin Herbert you want to see is 193 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: a guy having a good time, because that is when 194 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: he is just unstoppable. And he worked in the off 195 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: season a lot. Remember last offseason they didn't get much 196 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: time together because of all the COVID mess. This offseason, 197 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: a lot more work was done. He took no vacations, 198 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: he said, practices my vacation. He worked a lot with 199 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: his footwork. He worked a lot with Corey Linsley on 200 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: communication in the pre snap routine in terms of cadence 201 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: and varying that. And remember Corey Lindsley and Aaron Rodgers 202 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: in Green Bay, they were routine lead drawing guys off 203 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: the line with their routine. So these are all good 204 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: things as a Charger fan to hear when it comes 205 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: to Justin Herbert, and he just I love that the 206 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: Bills are getting all of the hype, Like I love 207 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,559 Speaker 1: that none of the national shows are talking about Justin 208 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 1: Herbert because he doesn't want to be on the radar. 209 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: He wants to be under the radar. And I think 210 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 1: that he's had a great preseason in that regard where 211 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 1: the hype has been all about Josh Allen. It's been 212 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: about the other quarterbacks, and he's just been quietly going 213 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 1: about his business of getting ready to ruin everybody. That 214 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: is music to Chargers fans ears right there, But you 215 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: mentioned it. He's in that football two o two, as 216 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: Joe Lombardi calls it, the evolution. If one on one 217 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: is getting the basics down, two o two is building 218 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: off of it. And then lastly, Shannon, before we go, 219 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 1: let's talk about some players flying under the radar Herbert, 220 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: I know you mention, but he is not as much 221 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: of that. But who do you have your eye on 222 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: as maybe someone who is sort of flying under the 223 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: radar right now who you expect might do big things 224 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: this season. Shane Day was talking about how on bad 225 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: days he's got this folder on his computer and the 226 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: title of the folder is called why Justin Herbert is 227 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 1: the best quarterback ever to play the game, or something 228 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: of that nature. And I was going through the highlights, 229 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 1: and I was watching all the highlights of last year, 230 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: and a name that has not been talked about is 231 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Jaylen Guiden. You know, he has not been talked about 232 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: in that wide receiver three role because Josh Palmer has 233 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: really come into his own with wide receiver two O two, 234 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: I guess you could say, but Jaylen Guiden's a track 235 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: star and a favorite target and a deep threat for 236 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, so I expect him to rise to the 237 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: level of being in the conversation. Pretty cool, Yeah, that 238 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: giant's game. That interest in sane touchdown pass that he caught. 239 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: I think though, when Shane Day was asked about his 240 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 1: favorite played, that one was purposely omitted. That was like, no, 241 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: no, no no, we can't do that one right. Yeah, it 242 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,599 Speaker 1: was a I think it was like a three and 243 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 1: a half or four yard pass when Justin took two 244 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 1: and a half seconds to get it out after going 245 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: through four different progressions, like it was insane. I think 246 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: that was his favorite one. I'm not remembering what game 247 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: it was, but that's a fun that's a fun read 248 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, as I spoke with Shane Day earlier 249 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: this offseason, I said, playing quarterback in the NFL is 250 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: super easy, right, just super simple, so easy. Shannon, thank 251 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: you so much for joining us. We will see you 252 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: at so far on Sunday we are back.
