00:00:58,788 --> 00:01:02,708
Speaker 7: NFL was. I was hurt a lot during my unour, unfortunately,

Speaker 3: Let's check out some.

33
00:01:27,908 --> 00:01:29,748
Speaker 4: Highlights on over the weekend. Shall we as a part

34
00:01:29,748 --> 00:01:30,348
Speaker 4: of the lead block.

35
00:01:30,748 --> 00:01:31,308
Speaker 5: Let's do it.

36
00:01:31,828 --> 00:01:33,068
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what's hurt right now.

37
00:01:33,108 --> 00:01:35,908
Speaker 1: Those sleeves on Manty, they're begging for dear life.

38
00:01:36,028 --> 00:01:38,108
Speaker 6: Just hang in there for the rest of the show. Man,

39
00:01:38,268 --> 00:01:40,268
Speaker 6: How you look great? So is what Levis though. It's

40
00:01:40,308 --> 00:01:41,188
Speaker 6: a good friend of ours.

41
00:01:41,428 --> 00:01:43,908
Speaker 1: He starts the game for the Titans, and he looked

42
00:01:43,908 --> 00:01:44,468
Speaker 1: really good.

43
00:01:44,508 --> 00:01:47,828
Speaker 6: That's Calvin Ridley. Remember Calvin Ridley signed a ninety two

44
00:01:47,908 --> 00:01:48,868
Speaker 6: million dollar deal.

45
00:01:49,548 --> 00:01:52,908
Speaker 1: You know, ceedee lamb can't get work. Levis played two drives,

46
00:01:52,908 --> 00:01:55,228
Speaker 1: looked really good, seven one hundred and eighteen yards. See

47
00:01:55,388 --> 00:01:58,708
Speaker 1: week one at Soldier Field against the Bears. Levis looks good.

48
00:01:58,828 --> 00:02:01,948
Speaker 1: Rat Laird Derek Carr did not play. It's preseason games, folks.

49
00:02:01,948 --> 00:02:02,668
Speaker 6: They're almost over.

50
00:02:02,748 --> 00:02:05,948
Speaker 4: I promise we are inching closer to it. There's Bonix.

51
00:02:06,028 --> 00:02:08,428
Speaker 3: He was being a starter last week for the Denver Broncos.

52
00:02:08,468 --> 00:02:10,668
Speaker 3: He started this game, gave way to Jared Sidham and

53
00:02:10,708 --> 00:02:12,828
Speaker 3: then it was Zach Wilson time. Later in the game,

54
00:02:12,948 --> 00:02:15,188
Speaker 3: Broncos go up big thirty one to twelve.

55
00:02:15,228 --> 00:02:16,588
Speaker 4: They would go on to win this one.

56
00:02:16,788 --> 00:02:20,308
Speaker 3: So at this point, Zach Wilson, what's the quarterback two

57
00:02:20,268 --> 00:02:22,188
Speaker 3: to three conversation going on in Denver?

58
00:02:22,908 --> 00:02:23,228
Speaker 6: Also?

59
00:02:23,548 --> 00:02:26,988
Speaker 1: What is the quarterback one conversation going on in New England?

60
00:02:27,588 --> 00:02:30,388
Speaker 6: And it maybe just be whoever is left standing? This

61
00:02:30,628 --> 00:02:31,548
Speaker 6: is unbelievable.

62
00:02:31,868 --> 00:02:35,628
Speaker 1: Resett gets crushed by kJ Henry for the Commanders. He

63
00:02:35,628 --> 00:02:39,628
Speaker 1: would finish with kind of like a banged up shoulder, grimacne.

64
00:02:40,628 --> 00:02:42,828
Speaker 6: Maybe it's not that serious. You know what is serious

65
00:02:42,868 --> 00:02:44,148
Speaker 6: the ability of Drake May.

66
00:02:44,348 --> 00:02:47,308
Speaker 1: This guy is first team all preseason. If there was

67
00:02:47,388 --> 00:02:52,028
Speaker 1: such a thing, just sharp, confident, fast, strong, corn fed,

68
00:02:52,308 --> 00:02:55,068
Speaker 1: pick your adjective, it describes Drake Major.

69
00:02:55,788 --> 00:02:58,188
Speaker 6: The conversation is changing, We're gonna have it shortly.

70
00:02:58,348 --> 00:03:00,348
Speaker 1: Is there any way that this guy is out there

71
00:03:00,548 --> 00:03:02,428
Speaker 1: for the opener, especially with.

72
00:03:02,428 --> 00:03:03,388
Speaker 6: Prissett banged up?

73
00:03:03,428 --> 00:03:03,588
Speaker 5: Now?

74
00:03:03,868 --> 00:03:06,228
Speaker 1: I mean May he just looks the part, He looks calm,

75
00:03:06,388 --> 00:03:10,748
Speaker 1: The arm is massive, the offensive line is absolutely.

76
00:03:10,068 --> 00:03:12,268
Speaker 6: Horrendous, and yet he's still out there making plays. And

77
00:03:12,308 --> 00:03:14,148
Speaker 6: I know it's against backups. I know, I know you

78
00:03:14,148 --> 00:03:15,508
Speaker 6: don't have to keep telling us You've been telling this

79
00:03:15,508 --> 00:03:15,908
Speaker 6: for a month.

80
00:03:15,988 --> 00:03:18,788
Speaker 1: The Patriots look like a completely different unit When he

81
00:03:18,868 --> 00:03:21,948
Speaker 1: is out there. He looks everything you would want there

82
00:03:21,948 --> 00:03:23,868
Speaker 1: he is, though on the bench. Will he be there

83
00:03:23,868 --> 00:03:27,068
Speaker 1: for Week one? Drake May thirteen or twenty and twenty

84
00:03:27,108 --> 00:03:30,148
Speaker 1: six yards and a touchdown, looked really sharp. A lot

85
00:03:30,148 --> 00:03:33,228
Speaker 1: of talk afterwards about we're set shoulder The opener, guys,

86
00:03:33,508 --> 00:03:35,068
Speaker 1: is thirteen days away.

87
00:03:35,148 --> 00:03:38,028
Speaker 3: Jamie Ardolf, Oh, it sounds beautiful, Kyle, so frustrating you're

88
00:03:38,028 --> 00:03:39,708
Speaker 3: in New York. You took the words right out of

89
00:03:39,708 --> 00:03:42,828
Speaker 3: my mouth. Smart, strong, fast, and corn fed. That's Tom

90
00:03:42,828 --> 00:03:44,948
Speaker 3: Pelasero for me. That's exactly how I was going to

91
00:03:45,028 --> 00:03:48,468
Speaker 3: intro our news guy, our insider, Tom Pelazero joining us

92
00:03:48,788 --> 00:03:51,428
Speaker 3: for the first time of the season here on Good

93
00:03:51,428 --> 00:03:56,028
Speaker 3: Morning Football, Tom the Patriots Week one QB one.

94
00:03:56,388 --> 00:03:58,308
Speaker 4: How do we navigate this well?

95
00:03:58,388 --> 00:03:59,028
Speaker 6: Jamie Girod.

96
00:03:59,068 --> 00:04:02,468
Speaker 8: Mayo says that he intends to have a starting quarterback

97
00:04:02,508 --> 00:04:06,748
Speaker 8: decision by tonight, but may have given some pretty strong hints.

98
00:04:06,748 --> 00:04:09,508
Speaker 8: In his postgame press conference, he talked about the fact

99
00:04:09,548 --> 00:04:12,508
Speaker 8: that the best players are going to play. He referred

100
00:04:12,508 --> 00:04:15,708
Speaker 8: to the rookie Drake May as the second best quarterback

101
00:04:16,028 --> 00:04:18,628
Speaker 8: on the Patriots roster. The real question here is just

102
00:04:18,668 --> 00:04:20,828
Speaker 8: going to be on the medical front. Mayo said that

103
00:04:20,908 --> 00:04:22,788
Speaker 8: Jacoby Brissett could have returned.

104
00:04:22,548 --> 00:04:22,908
Speaker 6: To the game.

105
00:04:22,988 --> 00:04:25,668
Speaker 8: The plan was always to get him out after one series.

106
00:04:25,708 --> 00:04:28,788
Speaker 8: They got back in the wee hours early this morning.

107
00:04:28,908 --> 00:04:31,308
Speaker 8: They're gonna check out Brissette over the course of the day.

108
00:04:31,308 --> 00:04:33,668
Speaker 8: It is an injury, a hit that he took on

109
00:04:33,788 --> 00:04:37,548
Speaker 8: his throwing shoulder. All things equal, though, all the arrows

110
00:04:37,548 --> 00:04:39,948
Speaker 8: seem to continue to point to Jacobe Brissett being the

111
00:04:39,988 --> 00:04:42,388
Speaker 8: starter at the beginning of the season. This makes sense

112
00:04:42,588 --> 00:04:45,948
Speaker 8: on multiple levels. For one thing, the Patriots offensive line

113
00:04:46,028 --> 00:04:48,548
Speaker 8: is certainly a big question mark lead into the season,

114
00:04:48,628 --> 00:04:51,148
Speaker 8: as evidenced by the missed block that led to Jacoby

115
00:04:51,188 --> 00:04:54,468
Speaker 8: Brissett getting blasted last night. Also, Drake may going back

116
00:04:54,508 --> 00:04:56,348
Speaker 8: to the pre draft process, was the quarterback.

117
00:04:56,348 --> 00:04:58,148
Speaker 6: When I talked to coaches and scouts.

118
00:04:57,788 --> 00:05:01,228
Speaker 8: Everybody said probably needed the most time to get himself ready.

119
00:05:01,228 --> 00:05:02,668
Speaker 6: Now we've seen what he can do on the field.

120
00:05:02,708 --> 00:05:05,548
Speaker 8: He's dynamic, he's fast, he can make things happen with

121
00:05:05,628 --> 00:05:08,628
Speaker 8: his arm and his legs. But the instincts all along

122
00:05:08,628 --> 00:05:11,228
Speaker 8: have seemed to be Jacoby Brissett was going to be

123
00:05:11,268 --> 00:05:14,308
Speaker 8: the starter out of the gate. Health aside, it certainly

124
00:05:14,308 --> 00:05:16,108
Speaker 8: seems like things are still trending in that direction.

125
00:05:16,188 --> 00:05:18,508
Speaker 3: Jamie, all right, well, I'm sure Drod Mayo did not

126
00:05:18,628 --> 00:05:21,428
Speaker 3: sign up for first time head coach, hire an entire

127
00:05:21,468 --> 00:05:23,908
Speaker 3: new staff and then have a quarterback decision that is

128
00:05:23,948 --> 00:05:27,308
Speaker 3: going down to the wire ahead of this season. It's

129
00:05:27,348 --> 00:05:29,028
Speaker 3: a lot on a first time head coach. Tom, thank

130
00:05:29,028 --> 00:05:30,388
Speaker 3: you so much. We'll talk to you and we'll see

131
00:05:30,388 --> 00:05:32,748
Speaker 3: you in a little bit. This is one that has

132
00:05:32,788 --> 00:05:36,108
Speaker 3: taken up our eyeballs, our brain space, our conversation here

133
00:05:36,148 --> 00:05:38,628
Speaker 3: on the show several times over the last couple weeks.

134
00:05:38,668 --> 00:05:41,388
Speaker 4: It's Drake may It's Jacoby Brissett, Mantai.

135
00:05:41,468 --> 00:05:43,868
Speaker 7: What would you do you remember in the movie Friday

136
00:05:43,948 --> 00:05:47,348
Speaker 7: Night Lights, when take me back sure, when Booby Miles

137
00:05:47,468 --> 00:05:49,988
Speaker 7: gets hurt before that Midland game and he goes to

138
00:05:50,028 --> 00:05:53,068
Speaker 7: go see the doctor and the doctor says, you're not ready.

139
00:05:53,308 --> 00:05:55,788
Speaker 7: Goes back to coach, coach asked what did the doctor say?

140
00:05:55,828 --> 00:05:57,748
Speaker 5: He said, The doctor said he lied. He said, the

141
00:05:57,788 --> 00:05:59,948
Speaker 5: doctor sam, I'm ready. The uncle looks at him.

142
00:05:59,788 --> 00:06:03,348
Speaker 7: As the coach that coach, yeah, we're ready. What happens

143
00:06:03,348 --> 00:06:05,668
Speaker 7: He goes to the game. The coach has them on

144
00:06:05,668 --> 00:06:09,708
Speaker 7: the sideline, They're getting their butts kicked, pressures kind of building,

145
00:06:10,188 --> 00:06:14,588
Speaker 7: and the coach, against his better judgment, puts Booby in

146
00:06:14,628 --> 00:06:17,028
Speaker 7: the game. We all who've seen the movie, you understand

147
00:06:17,108 --> 00:06:20,628
Speaker 7: what happens in that situation. How does this relate to

148
00:06:20,668 --> 00:06:24,548
Speaker 7: this Drake may scenario. If the coach would have just

149
00:06:24,668 --> 00:06:28,148
Speaker 7: trusted his instinct, I think this whole story would be different.

150
00:06:28,428 --> 00:06:31,148
Speaker 7: Do we all think here at Good Morning Football that

151
00:06:31,508 --> 00:06:33,948
Speaker 7: he should be in this game? Yeah, we think he

152
00:06:33,988 --> 00:06:36,908
Speaker 7: should be the starter. But Coach Mail, trust your instinct.

153
00:06:37,348 --> 00:06:39,708
Speaker 7: If you ask Drake Mail on week one, Drake, are

154
00:06:39,708 --> 00:06:42,108
Speaker 7: you ready to go? I bet you everything I have,

155
00:06:42,228 --> 00:06:45,708
Speaker 7: Drake says, going to say, Coach, I'm ready. But Coach Mayl,

156
00:06:45,868 --> 00:06:48,988
Speaker 7: trust your instinct. If he is not your week one starter.

157
00:06:49,428 --> 00:06:52,108
Speaker 7: When he takes the field and things aren't going well

158
00:06:52,148 --> 00:06:54,548
Speaker 7: for you and the New England Patriots, the whole Jillette

159
00:06:54,588 --> 00:06:57,268
Speaker 7: Stadium is probably going to be chanting his name. Drake May,

160
00:06:57,548 --> 00:07:00,388
Speaker 7: Drake May, Coach Mayl, trust your instinct.

161
00:07:01,228 --> 00:07:02,308
Speaker 5: You know what it looks like.

162
00:07:02,348 --> 00:07:04,548
Speaker 7: You had one of the greatest examples of what the

163
00:07:04,668 --> 00:07:06,388
Speaker 7: NFL ready quarterback looks like.

164
00:07:06,428 --> 00:07:07,948
Speaker 5: And Tom Brady not.

165
00:07:08,028 --> 00:07:11,828
Speaker 7: Just by his physical abilities, but more importantly his mental abilities.

166
00:07:11,868 --> 00:07:13,108
Speaker 5: Do we all want to see him out there?

167
00:07:13,228 --> 00:07:15,588
Speaker 7: Yes, we do, But personally, for me, what do I

168
00:07:15,628 --> 00:07:17,948
Speaker 7: want to see it for Drake may I want Drake

169
00:07:17,988 --> 00:07:21,188
Speaker 7: May to have that fifteen plus year career with the

170
00:07:21,228 --> 00:07:23,748
Speaker 7: New England Patriots and be able to say I had

171
00:07:23,748 --> 00:07:26,508
Speaker 7: this type of career with one team because my head

172
00:07:26,508 --> 00:07:28,828
Speaker 7: coach trusted his instinct So what I love to see

173
00:07:28,908 --> 00:07:30,468
Speaker 7: Drake may out there? Of course I would, I think

174
00:07:31,068 --> 00:07:33,948
Speaker 7: everybody else would, But Coach Mayo, please just trust your

175
00:07:33,988 --> 00:07:34,948
Speaker 7: instincts on this one.

176
00:07:35,188 --> 00:07:38,188
Speaker 9: Yeah, I feel like his instincts should be to throw

177
00:07:38,268 --> 00:07:40,988
Speaker 9: Drake in there. We know that Drake lost the battle

178
00:07:41,028 --> 00:07:44,588
Speaker 9: to Kendrick Lamar, but this Drake clear out. He won

179
00:07:44,668 --> 00:07:47,508
Speaker 9: this battle, in this quarterback battle, if you want to

180
00:07:47,548 --> 00:07:49,628
Speaker 9: call it a battle, the dude won. I mean, he

181
00:07:49,748 --> 00:07:52,588
Speaker 9: looks amazing. And then I start looking at personnel. I

182
00:07:52,628 --> 00:07:55,228
Speaker 9: started looking at what the front office and their moves

183
00:07:55,468 --> 00:07:58,348
Speaker 9: think about it. They didn't bring any big free agent

184
00:07:58,388 --> 00:08:00,628
Speaker 9: in there, They get rid of Judaon, they ship him

185
00:08:00,668 --> 00:08:04,068
Speaker 9: out of there, like everything is starting to look towards like,

186
00:08:04,108 --> 00:08:07,428
Speaker 9: you know, let's give him this opportunity. They've got a clear,

187
00:08:08,148 --> 00:08:11,908
Speaker 9: blank canvas right now. They are building something new. We

188
00:08:12,068 --> 00:08:14,548
Speaker 9: already know what the history of the new one Patriots,

189
00:08:14,628 --> 00:08:17,788
Speaker 9: right we know the great Rings and Tom Brady and Belichick.

190
00:08:17,988 --> 00:08:19,708
Speaker 9: It's a new era, and it's with the new era,

191
00:08:19,788 --> 00:08:21,108
Speaker 9: you got to start with the paint brush.

192
00:08:21,308 --> 00:08:23,268
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful looking paintbrush right there.

193
00:08:23,708 --> 00:08:26,188
Speaker 10: They tell me you saw something that makes you question

194
00:08:26,468 --> 00:08:28,748
Speaker 10: why he shouldn't be in there. He's going to learn

195
00:08:28,748 --> 00:08:32,468
Speaker 10: on the fly, like you notice Manti, like you step

196
00:08:32,468 --> 00:08:34,828
Speaker 10: out there. There's nothing you did in college that goes like,

197
00:08:34,908 --> 00:08:35,908
Speaker 10: oh yeah, I'm ready.

198
00:08:35,988 --> 00:08:38,108
Speaker 9: Right, you got to get your jaw broken in a

199
00:08:38,108 --> 00:08:39,788
Speaker 9: little bit. He's got to get his jaw broken in

200
00:08:39,828 --> 00:08:41,908
Speaker 9: a middle bit. Yeah, a little callous, and then boom,

201
00:08:41,948 --> 00:08:44,068
Speaker 9: he's ready to go. I say, play on it. They

202
00:08:44,668 --> 00:08:46,588
Speaker 9: trip it if they don't play Drake May. And they

203
00:08:46,588 --> 00:08:48,428
Speaker 9: know it to His instinct is saying play Drake May.

204
00:08:49,028 --> 00:08:52,388
Speaker 1: Listen, when someone tells you who they are, believe them

205
00:08:52,708 --> 00:08:56,188
Speaker 1: when they tell you for the entire preseason, over and over,

206
00:08:56,748 --> 00:09:00,788
Speaker 1: believe them. Nobody is dying to play Drake May. But

207
00:09:00,868 --> 00:09:04,348
Speaker 1: you have this, this really gifted child, and he should

208
00:09:04,468 --> 00:09:06,788
Speaker 1: be moved up in a grade he should be moved

209
00:09:06,788 --> 00:09:08,788
Speaker 1: among his peers. And it's like, I'm kind of nervous

210
00:09:08,788 --> 00:09:10,508
Speaker 1: about that. He's gonna be the youngest. He might not

211
00:09:10,508 --> 00:09:13,148
Speaker 1: fit in socially, but you're doing him a disservice.

212
00:09:13,308 --> 00:09:14,228
Speaker 6: Move the kid up.

213
00:09:14,548 --> 00:09:17,428
Speaker 1: However, However, I've been talking about this for a month.

214
00:09:17,948 --> 00:09:20,948
Speaker 1: I watched that game. Oh my god, that kid who

215
00:09:20,988 --> 00:09:23,348
Speaker 1: you're gonna move up in grades. He can handle the class,

216
00:09:23,588 --> 00:09:25,668
Speaker 1: but not if when he's walking into the school he

217
00:09:25,708 --> 00:09:28,548
Speaker 1: gets hit by a bus. Guys, I'm doing a complete

218
00:09:28,548 --> 00:09:31,308
Speaker 1: heel turn on this. That offensive line is going to

219
00:09:31,428 --> 00:09:34,028
Speaker 1: kill him. I think the offensive line just one. Jacoby

220
00:09:34,028 --> 00:09:36,428
Speaker 1: Brissette the job. Let me just give you a rundown,

221
00:09:36,708 --> 00:09:40,188
Speaker 1: a rundown of what happened to New England's offensive line

222
00:09:40,428 --> 00:09:41,068
Speaker 1: in this game.

223
00:09:41,148 --> 00:09:42,508
Speaker 6: They had ten penalties.

224
00:09:42,588 --> 00:09:44,548
Speaker 1: All right, this is the payer's trying to protect their

225
00:09:44,628 --> 00:09:48,108
Speaker 1: Drake May. They're Michael Jordan, the center was involved in

226
00:09:48,148 --> 00:09:51,668
Speaker 1: two bot snaps. The two tackles had four legal formations.

227
00:09:51,788 --> 00:09:54,228
Speaker 1: The left guard had holding and he left with injury.

228
00:09:54,428 --> 00:09:57,748
Speaker 1: His replacement at left guard, whose name is literally Michael Jordan,

229
00:09:58,108 --> 00:10:01,268
Speaker 1: immediately had a holding penalty. Then their rookie guard Land

230
00:10:01,348 --> 00:10:03,308
Speaker 1: Robinson at a false start, a holding call, gave up

231
00:10:03,308 --> 00:10:04,308
Speaker 1: a sack that hurt Jacoby Bris.

232
00:10:04,908 --> 00:10:06,828
Speaker 6: The untold story of the Jacobe Preset.

233
00:10:06,748 --> 00:10:08,948
Speaker 1: Deal, and this is detailed beautifully by Andrew Callahan the

234
00:10:08,948 --> 00:10:12,228
Speaker 1: Boston Herald. He was brought in sure to mentor Drake

235
00:10:12,268 --> 00:10:15,068
Speaker 1: May to bridge the gap. He was brought in to

236
00:10:15,188 --> 00:10:17,308
Speaker 1: get the crap kicked out of him, like a crash

237
00:10:17,348 --> 00:10:17,988
Speaker 1: test dummy.

238
00:10:17,988 --> 00:10:19,868
Speaker 6: He knew that, the Patriots knew that.

239
00:10:20,148 --> 00:10:22,588
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that, and it took about five seconds in

240
00:10:22,588 --> 00:10:24,748
Speaker 1: that last preseason game for him to get up grimacing

241
00:10:24,788 --> 00:10:27,828
Speaker 1: because no one can block anyone. I think Drake May

242
00:10:27,868 --> 00:10:30,548
Speaker 1: is completely ready to play. I think the offense is

243
00:10:30,588 --> 00:10:32,548
Speaker 1: different when he's out there. I think the whole vibe

244
00:10:32,548 --> 00:10:34,748
Speaker 1: is different when he's out there. And yes, jirod Mayo,

245
00:10:34,788 --> 00:10:37,388
Speaker 1: he's definitely the best quarterback on your roster. But I

246
00:10:37,428 --> 00:10:40,308
Speaker 1: think the Pats offensive line just lost Drake May the

247
00:10:40,308 --> 00:10:42,468
Speaker 1: starting job because they're not going to put him out

248
00:10:42,468 --> 00:10:44,148
Speaker 1: there to get his head kicked in in the first week.

249
00:10:44,228 --> 00:10:46,868
Speaker 1: Maybe after a month, but even me who's been saying

250
00:10:46,948 --> 00:10:49,868
Speaker 1: Drake May, Drake May, Drake May play, they were completely

251
00:10:49,908 --> 00:10:52,308
Speaker 1: irresponsible put him out there behind that line that they

252
00:10:52,308 --> 00:10:56,148
Speaker 1: will either get him hurt, get him confused, get him penalized,

253
00:10:56,348 --> 00:10:58,548
Speaker 1: probably all of the above. His first game would be

254
00:10:58,588 --> 00:11:00,268
Speaker 1: a snuff film and I don't want to see it.

255
00:11:00,388 --> 00:11:02,268
Speaker 1: You can't do it. It's crazy how bad they are.

256
00:11:02,388 --> 00:11:03,788
Speaker 1: I'm convinced I was wrong.

257
00:11:04,628 --> 00:11:04,788
Speaker 5: Yeah.

258
00:11:04,868 --> 00:11:08,028
Speaker 3: I mean in terms of like classroom decision making, doesn't

259
00:11:08,068 --> 00:11:10,188
Speaker 3: matter how fast Drake may can do anything on the

260
00:11:10,228 --> 00:11:13,148
Speaker 3: board if he has zero time after a snap to

261
00:11:13,228 --> 00:11:14,868
Speaker 3: be able to decide what to do and how to

262
00:11:14,908 --> 00:11:17,228
Speaker 3: handle his week one rookie start, Kyle, I go back

263
00:11:17,228 --> 00:11:18,468
Speaker 3: to you with the kids analogy.

264
00:11:18,948 --> 00:11:20,468
Speaker 4: I have a fresh five year old.

265
00:11:20,468 --> 00:11:22,828
Speaker 3: She should be going to kindergarten this fall, but we

266
00:11:23,028 --> 00:11:26,308
Speaker 3: moved across country. She's had major changes in her life.

267
00:11:26,348 --> 00:11:28,348
Speaker 3: She's trying to catch up, so we held her back.

268
00:11:28,388 --> 00:11:30,868
Speaker 3: We're going to make our six year old kindergartener next year.

269
00:11:30,988 --> 00:11:33,108
Speaker 3: There is nothing wrong with the fact that this girl

270
00:11:33,228 --> 00:11:35,148
Speaker 3: might be the tallest in her class, she might be

271
00:11:35,148 --> 00:11:37,508
Speaker 3: more emotionally said, she's going to be a nineteen year

272
00:11:37,508 --> 00:11:40,108
Speaker 3: old freshman when she goes to college. We're happy about that,

273
00:11:40,148 --> 00:11:41,748
Speaker 3: we're proud for that, and we know she's going to

274
00:11:41,788 --> 00:11:43,868
Speaker 3: be equipped for life when it comes to that. So

275
00:11:44,068 --> 00:11:46,028
Speaker 3: Drake May, to your point, I'm not just here for

276
00:11:46,068 --> 00:11:47,788
Speaker 3: a good time for the Patriots. I want him there

277
00:11:47,828 --> 00:11:50,108
Speaker 3: for a long time. And it should not matter if

278
00:11:50,108 --> 00:11:51,748
Speaker 3: he's the weak ones start. There's no one who says

279
00:11:51,748 --> 00:11:54,068
Speaker 3: when he's walking into the Hall of Fame in twenty

280
00:11:54,108 --> 00:11:56,348
Speaker 3: and twenty five years like man, I am so glad

281
00:11:56,388 --> 00:11:58,508
Speaker 3: I was a week one starter my rookie season. No,

282
00:11:58,748 --> 00:12:01,508
Speaker 3: you want him to be with one team for fifteen years.

283
00:12:01,668 --> 00:12:04,188
Speaker 3: You want him to stand up tall, feel great about

284
00:12:04,228 --> 00:12:07,708
Speaker 3: what he's putting out there, and fans, I can almost guarantee.

285
00:12:07,188 --> 00:12:08,548
Speaker 4: That in New England, they don't.

286
00:12:08,668 --> 00:12:10,828
Speaker 3: They would not care if it meant that man was

287
00:12:10,828 --> 00:12:12,468
Speaker 3: there for more than ten years.

288
00:12:12,628 --> 00:12:13,668
Speaker 5: You got trust your instinct.

289
00:12:13,868 --> 00:12:16,068
Speaker 1: It's not that immaculate though, guys, and you know this,

290
00:12:16,348 --> 00:12:18,828
Speaker 1: like what happens after in the middle of the first game,

291
00:12:18,828 --> 00:12:20,868
Speaker 1: in the middle of the second game, when Brissett just

292
00:12:20,908 --> 00:12:23,628
Speaker 1: doesn't have it or he's getting destroyed, and you're saying,

293
00:12:23,628 --> 00:12:25,508
Speaker 1: all the fans are gonna be chanting for Drake May.

294
00:12:25,868 --> 00:12:27,708
Speaker 1: They know that Drake May is better, they know they

295
00:12:27,708 --> 00:12:29,468
Speaker 1: want to put him in. But you have a first

296
00:12:29,468 --> 00:12:32,308
Speaker 1: time head coach who is probably way over his head.

297
00:12:32,348 --> 00:12:34,628
Speaker 1: A defensive head coach, of course he wants to put

298
00:12:34,708 --> 00:12:36,708
Speaker 1: him in, but it's not that simple, like he would

299
00:12:36,788 --> 00:12:39,348
Speaker 1: get him even more hurt and set back if he

300
00:12:39,388 --> 00:12:40,828
Speaker 1: puts him in the middle of a game.

301
00:12:40,988 --> 00:12:43,268
Speaker 6: I just don't know. Now we're starting the season.

302
00:12:43,268 --> 00:12:46,028
Speaker 1: It's obvious that Drake May has it, that Drake May

303
00:12:46,148 --> 00:12:48,588
Speaker 1: is just gonna sit all year. Now, the crowds will

304
00:12:48,628 --> 00:12:51,388
Speaker 1: start to react, the teammates will start to react. It

305
00:12:51,428 --> 00:12:53,908
Speaker 1: can be a mess really fast when you're obviously not

306
00:12:53,948 --> 00:12:55,108
Speaker 1: playing your best quarterback.

307
00:12:55,188 --> 00:12:56,828
Speaker 9: You know, the one concent that I have with that

308
00:12:57,108 --> 00:13:00,788
Speaker 9: is that if God forbid, if Jacoby Brissett then gets

309
00:13:00,868 --> 00:13:03,548
Speaker 9: hurt by this offensive line that has all these penalties

310
00:13:03,588 --> 00:13:06,508
Speaker 9: and can't block, then you're forced with then still with

311
00:13:06,588 --> 00:13:08,868
Speaker 9: the same situation, who are you going to play. You're

312
00:13:08,868 --> 00:13:11,228
Speaker 9: not going to bring the thirst during quarterback in over

313
00:13:11,308 --> 00:13:14,188
Speaker 9: Drake May because you want to protect the future. So

314
00:13:14,348 --> 00:13:16,548
Speaker 9: even at that you're still going to be faced with

315
00:13:16,588 --> 00:13:19,188
Speaker 9: that decision of playing Drake May. So it's just one

316
00:13:19,228 --> 00:13:21,908
Speaker 9: thing to ponder about. At some point he's got to play,

317
00:13:21,988 --> 00:13:25,068
Speaker 9: whether you throw him out there early or Jacobe becomes

318
00:13:25,068 --> 00:13:27,508
Speaker 9: the crash dumba gets beat up, and then he's so

319
00:13:27,668 --> 00:13:28,868
Speaker 9: beat up he can't play.

320
00:13:29,188 --> 00:13:30,348
Speaker 6: Week three comes around.

321
00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:31,268
Speaker 2: What are we doing?

322
00:13:31,628 --> 00:13:32,508
Speaker 6: You still got to play?

323
00:13:32,548 --> 00:13:36,108
Speaker 3: Drake may So, Drod Mayo, I think is speaking right now,

324
00:13:36,228 --> 00:13:38,788
Speaker 3: like on a radio in station in Boston. So it'll

325
00:13:38,788 --> 00:13:42,548
Speaker 3: be interesting to see how these decisions unfold as today goes, because,

326
00:13:42,588 --> 00:13:44,868
Speaker 3: as Kyle just said, thirteen days is a long time

327
00:13:44,868 --> 00:13:46,868
Speaker 3: to make this call and then sit and live with

328
00:13:46,948 --> 00:13:47,508
Speaker 3: the decision.

329
00:13:47,708 --> 00:13:49,428
Speaker 4: Ahead of the week one opener, let's.

330
00:13:49,268 --> 00:13:51,748
Speaker 3: Go AFC North when we come back here, Good morning football.

331
00:13:51,788 --> 00:13:55,628
Speaker 3: The Browns are looking to make back to back postseason appearances.

332
00:13:56,308 --> 00:13:58,148
Speaker 4: We talk about this a lot on the show. Man

333
00:13:58,308 --> 00:14:00,588
Speaker 4: is sometimes it feels strange talk about the Browns. They're

334
00:14:00,628 --> 00:14:01,548
Speaker 4: really good, they're.

335
00:14:01,388 --> 00:14:03,988
Speaker 3: Really talented, but it's like the sun. Don't look them

336
00:14:04,028 --> 00:14:05,908
Speaker 3: direct without blinking.

337
00:14:07,708 --> 00:14:08,388
Speaker 2: That's dangerous.

338
00:14:10,028 --> 00:14:12,788
Speaker 1: How about one of their division rivals, Mike Tomlin still's

339
00:14:12,868 --> 00:14:15,588
Speaker 1: not named the starter. We saw Russ over the weekend,

340
00:14:15,668 --> 00:14:19,228
Speaker 1: we saw justin Fields. Did Mike Tomlins see what he

341
00:14:19,388 --> 00:14:20,348
Speaker 1: needs to see to.

342
00:14:20,428 --> 00:14:21,148
Speaker 6: Name the starter?

343
00:14:21,268 --> 00:14:23,508
Speaker 1: Will break down who we think it should be, who

344
00:14:23,548 --> 00:14:24,228
Speaker 1: it will be?

345
00:14:24,708 --> 00:14:27,108
Speaker 6: And Akbar is gonna go into the boxing ring. Ocbar,

346
00:14:27,148 --> 00:14:27,628
Speaker 6: what are you doing?

347
00:14:28,228 --> 00:14:28,428
Speaker 2: You know?

348
00:14:28,468 --> 00:14:31,628
Speaker 10: What I'm going to tell you who's gonna win this fight.

349
00:14:31,988 --> 00:14:32,988
Speaker 2: It's an interesting fight.

350
00:14:33,028 --> 00:14:49,228
Speaker 11: All right, let's go, good mom. All right, here we go,

351
00:14:49,268 --> 00:14:50,908
Speaker 11: Steelers Lions. The big deal for.

352
00:14:50,828 --> 00:14:52,788
Speaker 1: The Steelers, because that guy's gonna decide who's gonna be

353
00:14:52,828 --> 00:14:55,228
Speaker 1: his starter, and he's got some pretty high pipe profile.

354
00:14:54,908 --> 00:14:57,748
Speaker 6: Guys fighting for it. Russell Wilson starts the game. This

355
00:14:57,868 --> 00:14:59,868
Speaker 6: is really early first drive of the whole game.

356
00:15:00,228 --> 00:15:04,348
Speaker 1: Clean pocket, great throw, George Pickens thirty two yards down

357
00:15:04,468 --> 00:15:05,588
Speaker 1: the Lions twenty nine.

358
00:15:05,788 --> 00:15:06,308
Speaker 6: Looks great.

359
00:15:06,388 --> 00:15:08,308
Speaker 1: This is what you want. This is exactly what we're

360
00:15:08,308 --> 00:15:10,188
Speaker 1: looking for. And if he plays like this, it's gonna

361
00:15:10,228 --> 00:15:13,068
Speaker 1: be the starter. Russ leaves the game just two for two,

362
00:15:13,228 --> 00:15:17,108
Speaker 1: twenty six yards touchdown drive. All right, well here comes Fields.

363
00:15:17,188 --> 00:15:19,468
Speaker 1: Russ look pretty good. You better do something here justin

364
00:15:19,908 --> 00:15:22,268
Speaker 1: you'd like to see Fields show off more, maybe run

365
00:15:22,308 --> 00:15:25,388
Speaker 1: throw a touchdown pass, but it's kind of not how

366
00:15:25,428 --> 00:15:27,668
Speaker 1: these plays are called. Field's not ready. Is trying to

367
00:15:27,668 --> 00:15:30,508
Speaker 1: send the receiver in motion. The snap comes, they go down.

368
00:15:30,508 --> 00:15:32,268
Speaker 1: It's a disaster. You don't want to see that. But

369
00:15:32,308 --> 00:15:35,588
Speaker 1: Fields gets back out there looking looking, and just not

370
00:15:35,708 --> 00:15:37,988
Speaker 1: a chance. Listen, he went through this a lot with

371
00:15:38,068 --> 00:15:40,308
Speaker 1: the Bears, and he's going through it again with the Steelers.

372
00:15:40,588 --> 00:15:44,348
Speaker 1: So if that's it, did Russell Wilson win the job

373
00:15:44,468 --> 00:15:45,348
Speaker 1: with two throws?

374
00:15:45,388 --> 00:15:45,628
Speaker 2: Really?

375
00:15:45,708 --> 00:15:48,068
Speaker 1: One throw on the sideline? The Steelers lost the game,

376
00:15:48,108 --> 00:15:50,708
Speaker 1: but we're gonna wash out. Who's got the advantage now?

377
00:15:50,708 --> 00:15:52,508
Speaker 1: Because it's over, guys, the next game they play will

378
00:15:52,548 --> 00:15:52,908
Speaker 1: be for real.

379
00:15:52,948 --> 00:15:53,748
Speaker 4: I'm girod meyo.

380
00:15:53,788 --> 00:15:55,828
Speaker 3: At least I'm looking at Mike Tomlin like, well, at

381
00:15:55,908 --> 00:15:58,348
Speaker 3: least that guy still can't decide on who his quarterback is.

382
00:15:58,348 --> 00:16:00,188
Speaker 3: And he's been coaching as a head coach a lot

383
00:16:00,228 --> 00:16:02,988
Speaker 3: longer than I have. This continues to be a conversation

384
00:16:03,188 --> 00:16:05,868
Speaker 3: who is the starting core? We're back in Pittsburgh, op bar,

385
00:16:06,068 --> 00:16:08,588
Speaker 3: you stand tall with this opinion.

386
00:16:08,308 --> 00:16:10,548
Speaker 2: I really do. This has been an interesting one.

387
00:16:10,588 --> 00:16:12,428
Speaker 9: I mean, in fact, I was up all night like

388
00:16:12,508 --> 00:16:14,548
Speaker 9: going like, who's gonna win this one?

389
00:16:14,628 --> 00:16:14,868
Speaker 6: Really?

390
00:16:15,068 --> 00:16:18,908
Speaker 10: So yeah I was, And so it actually inspired me

391
00:16:19,228 --> 00:16:21,428
Speaker 10: to write a poem. This is a big fight. This

392
00:16:21,508 --> 00:16:22,548
Speaker 10: is like a boxing match.

393
00:16:22,788 --> 00:16:24,988
Speaker 9: This reminds me of some of those old school boxing

394
00:16:25,148 --> 00:16:26,228
Speaker 9: boxing matches.

395
00:16:25,868 --> 00:16:27,628
Speaker 2: I grew up watching. So I wrote a poem. You

396
00:16:27,628 --> 00:16:29,228
Speaker 2: guys want to hear poetry and box?

397
00:16:29,628 --> 00:16:30,908
Speaker 6: Yeah?

398
00:16:31,788 --> 00:16:34,948
Speaker 9: It was inspired by the great Muhammad Ali. You know,

399
00:16:35,148 --> 00:16:37,188
Speaker 9: I look at these guys. They're in the Still City.

400
00:16:37,228 --> 00:16:40,428
Speaker 9: It sounds like like this is what it's supposed to be.

401
00:16:40,788 --> 00:16:42,148
Speaker 9: So here we go. I put it together.

402
00:16:42,268 --> 00:16:44,388
Speaker 6: This is right here. This is the fight card right here.

403
00:16:44,628 --> 00:16:49,628
Speaker 10: All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the main event.

404
00:16:50,668 --> 00:16:53,788
Speaker 2: In the black corner, standing tall with.

405
00:16:53,828 --> 00:16:58,308
Speaker 10: The experience, the precision, and the poise of a season champion.

406
00:16:58,748 --> 00:17:02,108
Speaker 10: The man who's no stranger to the spotlight, with the

407
00:17:02,228 --> 00:17:05,188
Speaker 10: move so slick they call him dangerous.

408
00:17:05,588 --> 00:17:08,628
Speaker 2: It's Russell Dangerous Wilson.

409
00:17:11,908 --> 00:17:16,548
Speaker 10: And in the yellow corner, the young contender with fire

410
00:17:16,668 --> 00:17:20,468
Speaker 10: in his eyes, next to the Allegheny River, ready to

411
00:17:20,588 --> 00:17:22,428
Speaker 10: prove he belongs.

412
00:17:21,868 --> 00:17:22,508
Speaker 2: At the top.

413
00:17:23,148 --> 00:17:26,668
Speaker 10: The rising star who's been making waves and won't back down.

414
00:17:27,188 --> 00:17:36,308
Speaker 10: It's the electrifying, just enlightening film Still City.

415
00:17:36,468 --> 00:17:40,748
Speaker 2: There's only one thing left to do. Let's throw down.

416
00:17:41,788 --> 00:17:44,748
Speaker 2: Here we go. This is how the fight goes down.

417
00:17:45,388 --> 00:17:49,468
Speaker 10: Wilson steps into the challenge and Phil starts to retreat.

418
00:17:50,628 --> 00:17:53,588
Speaker 10: All of a sudden, Phil's moving back further. He'll be

419
00:17:53,708 --> 00:17:57,588
Speaker 10: out of a ride, so let's ride. Wilson scrambles to

420
00:17:57,628 --> 00:18:01,668
Speaker 10: the left. Wilson scrambles to the right, looking old Russ

421
00:18:01,788 --> 00:18:06,908
Speaker 10: dangerous in the spotlight. Phil's keeps retreating, but there's not

422
00:18:07,148 --> 00:18:10,628
Speaker 10: enough room. It's only a matter of time till Wilson

423
00:18:10,788 --> 00:18:15,028
Speaker 10: seals the deal. But still Wilson seals his doom. That's

424
00:18:15,068 --> 00:18:17,788
Speaker 10: all right, keep with me, Phils keeps fighting.

425
00:18:17,468 --> 00:18:17,948
Speaker 6: Keep going.

426
00:18:18,228 --> 00:18:21,988
Speaker 10: Phil's stands still standing, but his host wears a frown

427
00:18:23,108 --> 00:18:26,668
Speaker 10: as the Veteran's skill starts shutting him down.

428
00:18:27,068 --> 00:18:28,708
Speaker 2: Now Phil disappears from view.

429
00:18:29,108 --> 00:18:33,188
Speaker 10: The fans are getting frantic, but Coach Tomlin is dynamic.

430
00:18:33,908 --> 00:18:35,788
Speaker 2: Then Wilson hits with the pass.

431
00:18:36,148 --> 00:18:40,268
Speaker 10: What a beautiful throw and the ball fails through as

432
00:18:40,308 --> 00:18:41,988
Speaker 10: if guided by the globe.

433
00:18:42,468 --> 00:18:45,708
Speaker 2: What a sight to see, and the fans now know

434
00:18:46,628 --> 00:18:49,708
Speaker 2: who the starter will be. Hold on, hold On.

435
00:18:50,548 --> 00:18:54,548
Speaker 10: Phil's is still hustling, but Coach Thomlins stands tall. It's

436
00:18:54,588 --> 00:18:58,708
Speaker 10: the veteran He's chosen and Russell's got it all. Who

437
00:18:58,748 --> 00:19:01,668
Speaker 10: would have thought when they came to this show that

438
00:19:01,748 --> 00:19:06,068
Speaker 10: they see Wilson rise and Phil's low. Yes, the crowd

439
00:19:06,108 --> 00:19:09,588
Speaker 10: didn't know when they first saw this fuss, but now

440
00:19:09,628 --> 00:19:13,468
Speaker 10: it's clear's day that Russell's got all the goodies to

441
00:19:13,548 --> 00:19:18,708
Speaker 10: stay and not my goodies and still the undisputed quarterback

442
00:19:18,788 --> 00:19:23,028
Speaker 10: starter for the Steelers, Russell.

443
00:19:23,628 --> 00:19:24,268
Speaker 5: Will So.

444
00:19:27,668 --> 00:19:29,948
Speaker 10: I got a little punch drunk at the top there,

445
00:19:30,388 --> 00:19:32,268
Speaker 10: but I was able to get through it.

446
00:19:32,588 --> 00:19:34,268
Speaker 2: But it's Russell Wilson.

447
00:19:34,308 --> 00:19:36,788
Speaker 9: I mean, this is one that I went to bed

448
00:19:36,828 --> 00:19:38,708
Speaker 9: at like midnight working on this and in.

449
00:19:38,668 --> 00:19:41,588
Speaker 3: Morning television talk that's not that's not good for your health.

450
00:19:41,668 --> 00:19:42,908
Speaker 6: No, it's not good for your health.

451
00:19:42,948 --> 00:19:45,468
Speaker 9: But it was worth it because I really want to

452
00:19:45,468 --> 00:19:48,508
Speaker 9: see Russell Wilson come back. So many people are sleeping

453
00:19:48,508 --> 00:19:51,548
Speaker 9: on Russell Wilson, and I truly believe he's the guy

454
00:19:51,588 --> 00:19:52,588
Speaker 9: and the starter for this.

455
00:19:52,868 --> 00:19:54,908
Speaker 3: You've lived in that for quite some time and you

456
00:19:54,948 --> 00:19:56,908
Speaker 3: continue to think it and think of thing, and like

457
00:19:57,068 --> 00:19:58,948
Speaker 3: we got to wait and see from Tomlin.

458
00:19:59,028 --> 00:20:01,348
Speaker 4: But that if that was convincing enough and he.

459
00:20:02,028 --> 00:20:04,668
Speaker 9: Watched this, and you think Tomlin is going to say,

460
00:20:04,668 --> 00:20:07,148
Speaker 9: you know what, okbar, you convinced me with that that

461
00:20:07,268 --> 00:20:08,268
Speaker 9: was poetic.

462
00:20:08,628 --> 00:20:11,628
Speaker 4: That would be a huge compliment. Kyle.

463
00:20:11,948 --> 00:20:14,348
Speaker 6: I wrote a poem. It goes like this, Roses are red,

464
00:20:14,468 --> 00:20:16,988
Speaker 6: violets are blue. The Steelers are in trouble with either

465
00:20:17,028 --> 00:20:17,628
Speaker 6: of these two.

466
00:20:17,868 --> 00:20:18,268
Speaker 2: That's it.

467
00:20:18,428 --> 00:20:19,188
Speaker 6: That's all I got.

468
00:20:19,788 --> 00:20:23,908
Speaker 1: Listen speaking of trouble, ogbar, listen to me listening if

469
00:20:23,948 --> 00:20:27,428
Speaker 1: you are staying up all night in August, worried about

470
00:20:27,508 --> 00:20:31,028
Speaker 1: the Steelers quarterback competition. There's a month around these parts

471
00:20:31,028 --> 00:20:34,468
Speaker 1: called December. We were all just zombies, just looking for

472
00:20:34,588 --> 00:20:37,028
Speaker 1: flesh to eat to stay alive and trying to keep

473
00:20:37,028 --> 00:20:39,268
Speaker 1: our eyes open. And you can't be staying up all

474
00:20:39,348 --> 00:20:41,868
Speaker 1: right now, man, but save that stuff.

475
00:20:42,148 --> 00:20:44,988
Speaker 12: This is a long season, man. I talk about the

476
00:20:44,988 --> 00:20:50,348
Speaker 12: Steelers quarterbacks. I'm opposite of everybody. I like Justin Fields.

477
00:20:50,908 --> 00:20:53,788
Speaker 12: I personally like Justin I always like Justin I think.

478
00:20:53,908 --> 00:20:57,028
Speaker 12: I mean Kyle talked about the New England Patriots O line.

479
00:20:57,108 --> 00:21:00,028
Speaker 12: The Steelers O line was just as bad. Like you're

480
00:21:00,148 --> 00:21:01,548
Speaker 12: you're messing up fumbles.

481
00:21:01,588 --> 00:21:04,828
Speaker 7: In the first preseason game against the Houston Texans, the

482
00:21:05,628 --> 00:21:06,868
Speaker 7: center snaps the ball.

483
00:21:06,748 --> 00:21:08,348
Speaker 5: Without Justin Fields even looking.

484
00:21:09,148 --> 00:21:11,908
Speaker 7: I was watching the Steelers training camp very closely.

485
00:21:12,828 --> 00:21:14,068
Speaker 5: When Russell Wilson.

486
00:21:13,788 --> 00:21:15,988
Speaker 2: Was out, Justin Fields.

487
00:21:15,788 --> 00:21:18,148
Speaker 5: Was bawling like he was bawling.

488
00:21:18,228 --> 00:21:21,028
Speaker 7: All you heard from the training camp was Russell Wilson

489
00:21:21,148 --> 00:21:25,908
Speaker 7: and George Pickens and that relationship, I mean, yeah, Justin Fields,

490
00:21:26,268 --> 00:21:29,748
Speaker 7: that whole relationship and that dynamic just growing and I think.

491
00:21:29,588 --> 00:21:32,108
Speaker 6: As a player, he was bawling because he.

492
00:21:32,108 --> 00:21:34,428
Speaker 7: Didn't have to look over his shoulder and worry, coach,

493
00:21:34,468 --> 00:21:35,988
Speaker 7: are you going to take me out of this practice?

494
00:21:35,988 --> 00:21:37,308
Speaker 7: Are you going to take me out of the game?

495
00:21:37,508 --> 00:21:41,228
Speaker 7: Coming from a player who's been in that situation, it's

496
00:21:41,268 --> 00:21:44,228
Speaker 7: so different when you're in a situation where you're constantly

497
00:21:44,228 --> 00:21:46,428
Speaker 7: looking to the sideline, like coach, am I staying in

498
00:21:46,468 --> 00:21:47,108
Speaker 7: on this play?

499
00:21:47,268 --> 00:21:48,188
Speaker 5: Are you taking me out?

500
00:21:48,268 --> 00:21:48,428
Speaker 6: Nick?

501
00:21:48,508 --> 00:21:48,868
Speaker 5: Series?

502
00:21:49,228 --> 00:21:52,668
Speaker 7: When Justin doesn't have that type of pressure, he just flourishes.

503
00:21:52,908 --> 00:21:55,068
Speaker 7: And not to mention, you need a quarterback back there

504
00:21:55,108 --> 00:21:57,708
Speaker 7: by the preseason the way that oline looks that can

505
00:21:57,788 --> 00:22:00,748
Speaker 7: extend place. Now Russell can do it, but he can't

506
00:22:00,748 --> 00:22:01,788
Speaker 7: do it as well as Justin.

507
00:22:02,428 --> 00:22:05,828
Speaker 3: I was listening to a Steelers podcast this and these

508
00:22:05,868 --> 00:22:08,668
Speaker 3: guys started in on the elephant in the room is

509
00:22:08,708 --> 00:22:10,948
Speaker 3: who wide receiver two is gonna be? And I was like,

510
00:22:11,028 --> 00:22:13,868
Speaker 3: what elephant are you missing? How are you not leading

511
00:22:13,868 --> 00:22:16,348
Speaker 3: this conversation with who your quarterback is going to be?

512
00:22:16,388 --> 00:22:17,748
Speaker 4: Who is throwing these guys the ball?

513
00:22:17,908 --> 00:22:20,348
Speaker 3: I don't care if it's wide receiver seven. This has

514
00:22:20,388 --> 00:22:22,268
Speaker 3: not been resolved yet for anybody.

515
00:22:23,468 --> 00:22:25,788
Speaker 4: It doesn't make any sense. What elephant.

516
00:22:25,828 --> 00:22:28,828
Speaker 3: What circuits are you at that you can't talk about

517
00:22:28,828 --> 00:22:31,148
Speaker 3: this for thirty minutes straight when it comes to a

518
00:22:31,188 --> 00:22:33,468
Speaker 3: Steelers conversation. I don't know if the rest of the

519
00:22:33,508 --> 00:22:35,788
Speaker 3: team is good enough to hold up to Steelers teams

520
00:22:35,788 --> 00:22:36,308
Speaker 3: in the past.

521
00:22:36,428 --> 00:22:38,948
Speaker 4: Well, it just was very I didn't understand it, Kyle.

522
00:22:39,068 --> 00:22:41,588
Speaker 3: But I mean, have you landed on this because you

523
00:22:41,628 --> 00:22:43,348
Speaker 3: just did an about face when it came to the

524
00:22:43,348 --> 00:22:44,988
Speaker 3: Patriots quarterback situation?

525
00:22:45,388 --> 00:22:48,108
Speaker 4: Are you tiptoeing into doing the same in Pittsburgh.

526
00:22:48,148 --> 00:22:49,588
Speaker 6: I'm not tiptoeing on this. Take that.

527
00:22:49,668 --> 00:22:52,708
Speaker 1: I love this glamorous West Coast Hollywood life. Jamie's living

528
00:22:52,708 --> 00:22:56,188
Speaker 1: with You's spending her weekends listening to Steelers podcasts as

529
00:22:56,228 --> 00:22:59,508
Speaker 1: she's parents her three young daughters. Jamie, you are such

530
00:22:59,548 --> 00:23:04,268
Speaker 1: a superstar. What a celebrity. That's incredible. Staying true to yourself, Linda,

531
00:23:08,028 --> 00:23:09,708
Speaker 1: I know I do, and you do, and I love

532
00:23:09,748 --> 00:23:10,588
Speaker 1: that you love it.

533
00:23:10,668 --> 00:23:13,468
Speaker 6: Listen this. It's probably gonna be Russ.

534
00:23:13,508 --> 00:23:15,388
Speaker 1: He made a really good throw to Pickens and what

535
00:23:15,508 --> 00:23:17,228
Speaker 1: was genuinely like a head to head audition.

536
00:23:17,468 --> 00:23:19,228
Speaker 6: I think man time makes some great points.

537
00:23:19,388 --> 00:23:21,348
Speaker 1: Neither one of these guys ran away with it. Neither

538
00:23:21,388 --> 00:23:24,628
Speaker 1: one of these guys is blowing anybody away. Everyone's both faulted. Listen,

539
00:23:24,868 --> 00:23:27,268
Speaker 1: I'm a Bears enthusiast. We've been seeing for three or

540
00:23:27,308 --> 00:23:30,388
Speaker 1: four years waiting for Justin Fields to make the jump.

541
00:23:30,588 --> 00:23:33,468
Speaker 1: Never really has. Russell Wilson hasn't played terribly well in.

542
00:23:33,468 --> 00:23:34,188
Speaker 6: About three years.

543
00:23:34,228 --> 00:23:36,188
Speaker 1: It's like they got in bed with both these guys,

544
00:23:36,228 --> 00:23:38,628
Speaker 1: and I get one of them has to be the person.

545
00:23:38,788 --> 00:23:40,708
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to choose somebody. But it's like being

546
00:23:40,708 --> 00:23:42,948
Speaker 1: at a restaurant and they read you the specials and

547
00:23:42,948 --> 00:23:45,188
Speaker 1: you're like, I guess I gotta get one of them.

548
00:23:45,548 --> 00:23:48,148
Speaker 6: Just take that one. I hope it's good. I don't know.

549
00:23:48,308 --> 00:23:50,228
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of trepidation right now for

550
00:23:50,268 --> 00:23:51,108
Speaker 1: Steelers fans.

551
00:23:50,948 --> 00:23:52,948
Speaker 6: And also same thing with the Patriots. Let's say they

552
00:23:52,988 --> 00:23:53,908
Speaker 6: start Russ Wilson.

553
00:23:54,188 --> 00:23:56,828
Speaker 1: Let's hope this doesn't happen, but halftime of the first game,

554
00:23:56,868 --> 00:23:59,068
Speaker 1: he's got two interceptions and they're down thirteen points. Are

555
00:23:59,068 --> 00:24:02,108
Speaker 1: we already saying put Fields out there and saying vice versa.

556
00:24:02,228 --> 00:24:04,548
Speaker 1: It's not a real strong vice gript that either one

557
00:24:04,548 --> 00:24:06,628
Speaker 1: of these guys got. It's a lot of unknown going

558
00:24:06,628 --> 00:24:07,228
Speaker 1: into the season.

559
00:24:07,268 --> 00:24:09,028
Speaker 6: It's not. It's not a real fun place.

560
00:24:08,748 --> 00:24:11,948
Speaker 9: To be the last time, Russell Wilson was in this

561
00:24:12,028 --> 00:24:14,588
Speaker 9: situation where he had a lot of haters and a

562
00:24:14,588 --> 00:24:17,148
Speaker 9: lot of people doubting him. So when he came in

563
00:24:17,668 --> 00:24:20,268
Speaker 9: as a third round draft pick, you remember Matt Flynn

564
00:24:20,308 --> 00:24:22,828
Speaker 9: was supposed to be the guy. Yeah, everybody's oh no,

565
00:24:22,868 --> 00:24:25,068
Speaker 9: there's no way, But there's no way this short little

566
00:24:25,108 --> 00:24:28,588
Speaker 9: guy can out do Matt Flynn, who they just signed

567
00:24:28,588 --> 00:24:30,668
Speaker 9: a bunch of money to. Well, you know what I

568
00:24:30,708 --> 00:24:33,028
Speaker 9: think he's feeling. He's gonna tap into that a lot

569
00:24:33,028 --> 00:24:35,628
Speaker 9: of people are doubting him, and I feel like Russell Wilson,

570
00:24:35,668 --> 00:24:38,348
Speaker 9: when he's doubted, that's when he shows up big time.

571
00:24:38,548 --> 00:24:40,148
Speaker 6: So just just watch for it.

572
00:24:40,628 --> 00:24:42,828
Speaker 13: But the NFL is back with four days of football

573
00:24:42,828 --> 00:24:45,268
Speaker 13: when the twenty twenty four season begins with the Baltimore

574
00:24:45,348 --> 00:24:48,628
Speaker 13: Ravens playing the Kansas City Chiefs. Watched that live on

575
00:24:48,668 --> 00:24:52,708
Speaker 13: September fifth at seven thirty pm Eastern on NBC NFL

576
00:24:52,788 --> 00:24:54,988
Speaker 13: Kickoff presented by YouTube TV.

577
00:24:55,628 --> 00:24:56,948
Speaker 4: Well, good morning everyone.

578
00:24:57,028 --> 00:24:59,788
Speaker 13: Tuesday is the deadline for teams to get their rosters

579
00:24:59,828 --> 00:25:02,948
Speaker 13: down to fifty three, but it's also time for players

580
00:25:02,988 --> 00:25:05,908
Speaker 13: who are holding into decide to get back on the

581
00:25:05,908 --> 00:25:09,148
Speaker 13: field as the regular season approaches. Yes, we are looking

582
00:25:09,188 --> 00:25:11,148
Speaker 13: at you, Bengals receiver Jamar Chase.

583
00:25:11,348 --> 00:25:12,628
Speaker 4: He participated in.

584
00:25:12,548 --> 00:25:15,348
Speaker 13: Team practice for the first time this training camp Sunday.

585
00:25:15,668 --> 00:25:18,628
Speaker 13: Chase is holding in as he looks for a new deal.

586
00:25:18,868 --> 00:25:21,388
Speaker 13: The All Pro is in the final year of his

587
00:25:21,548 --> 00:25:25,428
Speaker 13: rookie deal. Then here in La, the Rams granting linebacker

588
00:25:25,508 --> 00:25:28,908
Speaker 13: Ernest Jones the Ford permission to seek a trade. NFL

589
00:25:28,948 --> 00:25:32,268
Speaker 13: Networks Kim Woolf reporting contract talks between the Rams and

590
00:25:32,708 --> 00:25:36,068
Speaker 13: Jones's agent stalled, leaving the team to allow his agent

591
00:25:36,148 --> 00:25:39,148
Speaker 13: to find a new landing spot. Jones led the Rams

592
00:25:39,148 --> 00:25:43,028
Speaker 13: with one hundred and forty five tackles last season. Then

593
00:25:43,028 --> 00:25:45,628
Speaker 13: to Miami somewhat of a surprise move, as the team

594
00:25:45,668 --> 00:25:48,548
Speaker 13: released Mike White, who served as the backup to two

595
00:25:48,588 --> 00:25:51,148
Speaker 13: A Tongue of Bi Loa last season. White signed a

596
00:25:51,228 --> 00:25:54,388
Speaker 13: two year, eight million dollar contract with the Dolphins last season.

597
00:25:54,708 --> 00:25:58,068
Speaker 13: The move, though, saves Miami three point five million dollars

598
00:25:58,388 --> 00:26:02,308
Speaker 13: in cap space. Then, finally, we have some sad news

599
00:26:02,308 --> 00:26:05,468
Speaker 13: to report. Raven's offensive line coach Joe oh d Alessandris

600
00:26:05,548 --> 00:26:08,668
Speaker 13: passed away the age of seventy after an acute illness

601
00:26:08,988 --> 00:26:11,228
Speaker 13: in a statement released by the Ravens, saying Joe d

602
00:26:11,388 --> 00:26:15,268
Speaker 13: lived a life of boundless faith, love and devotion and inspiration.

603
00:26:15,588 --> 00:26:19,188
Speaker 13: As a father, husband, grandfather, friend, and coach, Joe made

604
00:26:19,348 --> 00:26:22,628
Speaker 13: every individual he encountered truly feel like they were the

605
00:26:22,708 --> 00:26:26,748
Speaker 13: most important person in the world. Now, the Ravens players

606
00:26:26,788 --> 00:26:29,068
Speaker 13: on both sides of the ball showing just an outpouring

607
00:26:29,108 --> 00:26:32,028
Speaker 13: of love on social media over the weekend for Coach d.

608
00:26:32,108 --> 00:26:36,748
Speaker 3: Jamie Sherry, all those adjectives are so perfectly appropriate for

609
00:26:36,908 --> 00:26:39,868
Speaker 3: Coach D, who was one of these people who made

610
00:26:39,868 --> 00:26:43,028
Speaker 3: you feel like he's known you for years the first

611
00:26:43,108 --> 00:26:45,868
Speaker 3: time you shook his hand. Ever since we heard of

612
00:26:46,108 --> 00:26:49,748
Speaker 3: Coach Jod's illness in the summer and then his subsequent

613
00:26:49,828 --> 00:26:52,908
Speaker 3: passing yesterday, I thought a lot about him, and I

614
00:26:53,068 --> 00:26:55,828
Speaker 3: landed on this that it was no wonder that in

615
00:26:55,868 --> 00:27:00,108
Speaker 3: this man's job description in the NFL became to build

616
00:27:00,188 --> 00:27:03,108
Speaker 3: up the position group whose job it is to protect

617
00:27:03,148 --> 00:27:06,228
Speaker 3: your favorite player too, to create an offensive line so

618
00:27:06,508 --> 00:27:10,468
Speaker 3: great that it makes your quarterback feel invincible. Jod was

619
00:27:10,508 --> 00:27:13,948
Speaker 3: gifted to us to make those around him better and

620
00:27:13,988 --> 00:27:17,348
Speaker 3: to feel invincible. Yet as an offensive line coach, he

621
00:27:17,388 --> 00:27:20,228
Speaker 3: didn't just build guys up in bulk and skill. He

622
00:27:20,388 --> 00:27:24,268
Speaker 3: elevated those he coached in great character and emotional stamina.

623
00:27:24,508 --> 00:27:27,068
Speaker 4: And if you heard as Sherry just said or read.

624
00:27:26,868 --> 00:27:30,388
Speaker 3: Anything about him over the weekend, included in his coaching

625
00:27:30,468 --> 00:27:34,708
Speaker 3: prowess was his willingness to reach you beyond the building,

626
00:27:34,788 --> 00:27:37,308
Speaker 3: no matter where he coached. If you spend some time

627
00:27:37,388 --> 00:27:40,308
Speaker 3: today reading about his former players and how they spoke

628
00:27:40,348 --> 00:27:42,868
Speaker 3: of coach Jod, the man who demanded players to put

629
00:27:42,908 --> 00:27:45,948
Speaker 3: their bodies on the line, poured himself into making them

630
00:27:45,988 --> 00:27:50,948
Speaker 3: better humans and in turn turned undrafted guys into pro bowlers.

631
00:27:51,188 --> 00:27:54,388
Speaker 3: I reached out to several in the Ravens organization yesterday

632
00:27:54,508 --> 00:27:57,468
Speaker 3: and one sentiment kept coming back to me, which was,

633
00:27:57,788 --> 00:27:59,188
Speaker 3: I will miss talking to him.

634
00:27:59,268 --> 00:28:00,548
Speaker 4: I will miss our talks.

635
00:28:00,668 --> 00:28:03,028
Speaker 3: And that is somebody who spends time getting to know

636
00:28:03,108 --> 00:28:05,428
Speaker 3: you and making the building better. Who was married to

637
00:28:05,548 --> 00:28:08,508
Speaker 3: his wife Tony for forty two years before she passed

638
00:28:08,548 --> 00:28:10,788
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two, it was known that he poured

639
00:28:10,868 --> 00:28:14,228
Speaker 3: himself into his Raven's family, as well as his three

640
00:28:14,308 --> 00:28:17,708
Speaker 3: daughters and a gaggle of grandchildren. Since Tony's passing, John

641
00:28:17,748 --> 00:28:21,228
Speaker 3: Harbaugh said yesterday. I admired him, I loved him, and

642
00:28:21,308 --> 00:28:23,348
Speaker 3: I am going to miss him because Joe Dee was

643
00:28:23,388 --> 00:28:25,868
Speaker 3: a joy and Tony has him back now.

644
00:28:26,308 --> 00:28:27,988
Speaker 4: Joe DALLASANDRAS coach Joe.

645
00:28:27,948 --> 00:28:30,268
Speaker 3: D after giving forty five years to the game that

646
00:28:30,308 --> 00:28:33,428
Speaker 3: brings us to Good Morning Football every day, passed away

647
00:28:33,468 --> 00:28:34,908
Speaker 3: Sunday at the age of seventy.

648
00:28:45,548 --> 00:28:50,388
Speaker 1: Good Mono moll all Right, Chargers Cowboys. The Chargers having

649
00:28:50,468 --> 00:28:53,548
Speaker 1: survived a perilous elevator incident that we're going to talk

650
00:28:53,548 --> 00:28:56,988
Speaker 1: about later. Dak Prescott out on the field, justin Herbert

651
00:28:57,308 --> 00:28:59,588
Speaker 1: not out on the field, has not played the entire preseason.

652
00:28:59,588 --> 00:29:03,228
Speaker 1: More on the elevator later, Guys, Trey Lance through five

653
00:29:03,388 --> 00:29:04,628
Speaker 1: interceptions in this game.

654
00:29:05,108 --> 00:29:06,828
Speaker 2: Five it's historical.

655
00:29:06,948 --> 00:29:09,548
Speaker 1: Is it the most ever in a preseason game? I

656
00:29:09,588 --> 00:29:12,108
Speaker 1: have the answer for that coming up later. There's another

657
00:29:12,148 --> 00:29:14,988
Speaker 1: one with two seconds left, going to tie the game.

658
00:29:15,068 --> 00:29:17,828
Speaker 1: It is interception number five. Give me a Dak reaction shot. Yeah,

659
00:29:17,988 --> 00:29:20,548
Speaker 1: they were trying to win the game. He threw forty

660
00:29:20,668 --> 00:29:23,068
Speaker 1: nine passes, five of them were picked off.

661
00:29:23,068 --> 00:29:23,628
Speaker 6: More of him later.

662
00:29:24,068 --> 00:29:26,228
Speaker 4: That guy has thrown no passes in the preseason. That's

663
00:29:26,228 --> 00:29:26,908
Speaker 4: DeShawn Watson.

664
00:29:26,948 --> 00:29:31,148
Speaker 3: He hasn't started yet for the Browns in August Gina Smith.

665
00:29:31,348 --> 00:29:32,948
Speaker 3: He didn't play the first two weeks, but the Seahawks

666
00:29:32,988 --> 00:29:35,348
Speaker 3: did see him quarterbacks in the start of this game.

667
00:29:35,868 --> 00:29:36,748
Speaker 4: Then it's DK.

668
00:29:36,628 --> 00:29:40,908
Speaker 3: Metcalf, which if DK Metcalf is good again this year,

669
00:29:41,148 --> 00:29:43,908
Speaker 3: my lord, watch out for the Seattle Seahawks. Right, Manti,

670
00:29:44,348 --> 00:29:47,668
Speaker 3: right right, We're gonna talk about it, Seahawks with this one.

671
00:29:47,708 --> 00:29:50,548
Speaker 4: Thirty seven to thirty three, that's a lot of preseason action.

672
00:29:50,748 --> 00:29:53,988
Speaker 3: Is very exciting for the Seahawks. There's Julian Love with

673
00:29:54,108 --> 00:29:57,428
Speaker 3: his player on his shoulder. Oh, it's great for the Seahawks.

674
00:29:57,588 --> 00:29:59,228
Speaker 3: Let's circle back to that first base that we saw

675
00:29:59,228 --> 00:30:01,828
Speaker 3: in that highlight, shall we. It's a quarterback to Shawn

676
00:30:01,908 --> 00:30:04,948
Speaker 3: Watson not playing again after playing in just a half

677
00:30:04,988 --> 00:30:08,148
Speaker 3: a dozen games last season. How do we go about

678
00:30:08,228 --> 00:30:11,108
Speaker 3: talking about the Browns as we enter the regular season

679
00:30:11,108 --> 00:30:14,908
Speaker 3: with them once again with Deshaun Watson as their quarterback,

680
00:30:15,228 --> 00:30:17,308
Speaker 3: But we just don't know what version of him we're getting.

681
00:30:17,668 --> 00:30:19,708
Speaker 7: In my opinion, they have to take a play from

682
00:30:19,788 --> 00:30:22,148
Speaker 7: the Denver Broncos playbook and just move on.

683
00:30:22,388 --> 00:30:24,348
Speaker 5: Oh, you move on.

684
00:30:24,428 --> 00:30:27,868
Speaker 7: I think sometimes franchises you get into a situation where

685
00:30:28,308 --> 00:30:31,108
Speaker 7: you invested so much money into a player and it's

686
00:30:31,108 --> 00:30:33,308
Speaker 7: not working out, and you're just hoping and praying that

687
00:30:33,468 --> 00:30:37,148
Speaker 7: all of this money. Just Listen, Miles Garrett isn't getting younger,

688
00:30:37,228 --> 00:30:40,628
Speaker 7: Nick Chubb isn't getting younger, Denzel Ward, Grand del Pitt,

689
00:30:40,748 --> 00:30:44,668
Speaker 7: David Nojoku. You have the supporting cast to be really

690
00:30:44,708 --> 00:30:47,268
Speaker 7: really good year in and year out. You have a

691
00:30:47,388 --> 00:30:51,388
Speaker 7: defense that just dominates the NFL football game, but your

692
00:30:51,468 --> 00:30:54,308
Speaker 7: quarterback hasn't been able to produce like how you're hoping

693
00:30:54,348 --> 00:30:57,308
Speaker 7: them to. So in this situation is just one of

694
00:30:57,348 --> 00:30:59,428
Speaker 7: those things where, hey, it was something that we were

695
00:30:59,468 --> 00:31:01,308
Speaker 7: hoping worked, but it hasn't.

696
00:31:01,548 --> 00:31:04,108
Speaker 5: Let's move on. Let's take advantage of what we have

697
00:31:04,428 --> 00:31:06,828
Speaker 5: and the window was now. So that's that's my opinion.

698
00:31:07,668 --> 00:31:10,068
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's that's uh. I hear you.

699
00:31:10,148 --> 00:31:10,988
Speaker 4: Huh Do you agree?

700
00:31:11,228 --> 00:31:13,948
Speaker 9: I don't agree to move on from Deshaun Watson. I'm

701
00:31:13,988 --> 00:31:17,068
Speaker 9: probably one of the very few people that still believes

702
00:31:17,108 --> 00:31:19,988
Speaker 9: in Deshaun Watson. I know, we have not seen, you know,

703
00:31:20,068 --> 00:31:22,988
Speaker 9: Deshaun Watson play in you know, more than six games

704
00:31:22,988 --> 00:31:25,188
Speaker 9: since twenty twenty. I mean, and that's when he was

705
00:31:25,188 --> 00:31:28,028
Speaker 9: playing at a high level. Obviously there's been off the

706
00:31:28,028 --> 00:31:31,868
Speaker 9: field issues, there's been injuries, and this could be the

707
00:31:31,988 --> 00:31:34,868
Speaker 9: very first year we see that, Like he could be

708
00:31:34,908 --> 00:31:37,348
Speaker 9: a candidate for the Comeback Player of the Year. I

709
00:31:37,428 --> 00:31:40,028
Speaker 9: truly believe they've got all the weapons around him, from

710
00:31:40,028 --> 00:31:44,468
Speaker 9: Amari Cooper to you know, obviously Joel Buntonio, Miles Garrett

711
00:31:44,468 --> 00:31:46,748
Speaker 9: on the other side, Denzel on the other side. Like

712
00:31:46,788 --> 00:31:48,988
Speaker 9: this is a solid team and the way they looked

713
00:31:49,068 --> 00:31:51,988
Speaker 9: last year with him without him, this is a good team.

714
00:31:52,388 --> 00:31:55,428
Speaker 9: So Deshaun Watson really, to me, the pressure is off,

715
00:31:55,548 --> 00:31:58,948
Speaker 9: like you got dogs around you, Like you're ready, You're

716
00:31:59,068 --> 00:32:01,108
Speaker 9: set now. All he has to do is just put

717
00:32:01,108 --> 00:32:04,628
Speaker 9: in the mentals. I mean from a front office standpoint

718
00:32:04,868 --> 00:32:07,508
Speaker 9: you're talking about, you know, like maybe you know because

719
00:32:07,788 --> 00:32:10,708
Speaker 9: being forced because they they put all this money into

720
00:32:10,828 --> 00:32:15,388
Speaker 9: they really don't have another option, Like like you could

721
00:32:15,428 --> 00:32:17,508
Speaker 9: go with Jamis Winston, right, you.

722
00:32:17,428 --> 00:32:21,348
Speaker 3: Could, but can I interest you in some Dorian Thompson Robinson.

723
00:32:21,508 --> 00:32:26,188
Speaker 10: Dtr I'm cool, cool, but to your point.

724
00:32:26,348 --> 00:32:29,228
Speaker 9: Yeah yeah I know, I know, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm cool.

725
00:32:29,308 --> 00:32:30,268
Speaker 6: Deshaun Watson.

726
00:32:30,388 --> 00:32:32,348
Speaker 9: Is you pay two hundred and thirty million dollars, you

727
00:32:32,388 --> 00:32:33,508
Speaker 9: go get everything you like?

728
00:32:33,548 --> 00:32:34,668
Speaker 6: I know if I bought something for two.

729
00:32:34,628 --> 00:32:36,588
Speaker 9: Hundred and thirty Oh, I'm gonna get everything out of it.

730
00:32:36,748 --> 00:32:38,348
Speaker 9: Even if it starts to break down, I'm gonna get

731
00:32:38,388 --> 00:32:40,788
Speaker 9: everything out of it. I think Deshaun Watson's gonna be

732
00:32:40,788 --> 00:32:41,628
Speaker 9: comeback player of the year.

733
00:32:41,788 --> 00:32:44,628
Speaker 3: Oh wow, Okay, so we're throwing half far.

734
00:32:44,668 --> 00:32:45,788
Speaker 6: I think that's fascinating.

735
00:32:45,948 --> 00:32:48,428
Speaker 1: We run the gamut in this conversation, and that's what

736
00:32:48,468 --> 00:32:51,828
Speaker 1: makes them interesting, from move on to comeback player of

737
00:32:51,828 --> 00:32:52,108
Speaker 1: the year.

738
00:32:52,268 --> 00:32:53,388
Speaker 6: Here, here's just some facts.

739
00:32:53,428 --> 00:32:53,708
Speaker 5: Okay.

740
00:32:53,868 --> 00:32:57,748
Speaker 1: The Browns traded three three first round draft picks for him,

741
00:32:57,748 --> 00:33:00,148
Speaker 1: plus some more picks. They signed them a five year,

742
00:33:00,268 --> 00:33:03,508
Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty million dollar deal, fully guaranteed.

743
00:33:03,588 --> 00:33:05,668
Speaker 6: At this point, he still has over.

744
00:33:05,428 --> 00:33:09,828
Speaker 1: One hundred and thirty million dollars fully guaranteed left on

745
00:33:09,868 --> 00:33:13,148
Speaker 1: the contract. So like they're in bed with Deshaun Watson

746
00:33:13,188 --> 00:33:15,068
Speaker 1: and he ain't leaving. I don't know if they know

747
00:33:15,148 --> 00:33:16,548
Speaker 1: what he's going to give them. I don't know what

748
00:33:16,708 --> 00:33:18,868
Speaker 1: if I know, If you know, the fact is an

749
00:33:18,868 --> 00:33:21,948
Speaker 1: acbar hit on this. Deshaun Watson has not had a full,

750
00:33:22,028 --> 00:33:26,068
Speaker 1: complete quality season since twenty twenty. That's the COVID season.

751
00:33:26,148 --> 00:33:28,428
Speaker 1: It's been that long. That doesn't mean he's not going

752
00:33:28,508 --> 00:33:30,788
Speaker 1: to be good again. It just means, my god, it's

753
00:33:30,828 --> 00:33:32,268
Speaker 1: been a long time seas he has been out there.

754
00:33:32,308 --> 00:33:34,428
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, he was a superstar, He's a top five

755
00:33:34,468 --> 00:33:37,188
Speaker 1: guy in the league, and now it's completely a mystery.

756
00:33:37,508 --> 00:33:40,148
Speaker 1: Add to that, he has the reigning Coach of the

757
00:33:40,268 --> 00:33:43,988
Speaker 1: Year who won that award based mostly on a playoff

758
00:33:44,068 --> 00:33:47,428
Speaker 1: run that they made with Joe Flacco out of nowhere,

759
00:33:47,508 --> 00:33:51,188
Speaker 1: during which there were real conversations being had about you know,

760
00:33:51,308 --> 00:33:54,148
Speaker 1: the team responds to Joe Flacco a lot better than

761
00:33:54,148 --> 00:33:56,548
Speaker 1: they ever did to Deshaun Watson, and we guaranteed a

762
00:33:56,628 --> 00:34:00,348
Speaker 1: quarter billion dollars notice that Joe Flacco is not there anymore,

763
00:34:00,388 --> 00:34:01,988
Speaker 1: of course, and got them the hell out of there

764
00:34:02,068 --> 00:34:05,148
Speaker 1: because we can't have that conversation. I think is I've

765
00:34:05,148 --> 00:34:08,148
Speaker 1: said this before, the most enigmatic team in the entire

766
00:34:08,268 --> 00:34:11,748
Speaker 1: NFL because the star of the team who is guaranteed

767
00:34:11,788 --> 00:34:13,668
Speaker 1: to be there for a long time, we have no

768
00:34:13,748 --> 00:34:16,028
Speaker 1: clue what we're getting from him, and there's very little

769
00:34:16,028 --> 00:34:18,588
Speaker 1: conversation about it because there's nothing to sink your teeth into.

770
00:34:18,788 --> 00:34:21,468
Speaker 1: We talk more about justin Field's practice reps in that

771
00:34:21,508 --> 00:34:25,308
Speaker 1: division than we do about the actual starting quarterback DeShawn Watson.

772
00:34:25,428 --> 00:34:27,588
Speaker 1: You got Burrow, you have Lamar, you have whoever the

773
00:34:27,588 --> 00:34:30,548
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers choose. And then it's like, oh, yeah, there's Watson,

774
00:34:30,548 --> 00:34:32,868
Speaker 1: who at one point was looked at as the future

775
00:34:32,988 --> 00:34:35,468
Speaker 1: of the league, maybe the face of the league before

776
00:34:35,468 --> 00:34:37,628
Speaker 1: everything went to hell. I don't know what to expect

777
00:34:37,668 --> 00:34:42,028
Speaker 1: week one, and remember Week one, Brown Cowboys, tom Brady's

778
00:34:42,068 --> 00:34:46,548
Speaker 1: first call as an announcer. Everybody's watching it, everybody's listening

779
00:34:46,588 --> 00:34:48,788
Speaker 1: to it, and I think even Tom Brady himself is

780
00:34:48,828 --> 00:34:50,828
Speaker 1: looking at Watson and being like, show us something.

781
00:34:50,908 --> 00:34:52,428
Speaker 6: Man, it's been a while.

782
00:34:52,588 --> 00:34:54,588
Speaker 1: I have no clue what to expect, and I don't

783
00:34:54,628 --> 00:34:55,988
Speaker 1: even know if Kevin Stefanski does.

784
00:34:56,108 --> 00:34:57,868
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, it has been a minute. And I would

785
00:34:57,908 --> 00:35:01,148
Speaker 9: just say this too to Deshaun Watson. Look, I never

786
00:35:01,188 --> 00:35:02,188
Speaker 9: made this type of money.

787
00:35:02,188 --> 00:35:02,588
Speaker 6: I don't know.

788
00:35:03,028 --> 00:35:05,388
Speaker 2: I couldn't even imagine. But here's what I do know.

789
00:35:05,788 --> 00:35:09,188
Speaker 9: Sometimes money makes you buy into your own celebrity, It

790
00:35:09,228 --> 00:35:11,428
Speaker 9: makes you buy into your own hype. I would say,

791
00:35:11,468 --> 00:35:14,948
Speaker 9: strip yourself of the celebrity, strip yourself of all the hype. Men,

792
00:35:15,348 --> 00:35:19,588
Speaker 9: Stay healthy and ball out. Don't let that stuff cloud

793
00:35:19,628 --> 00:35:22,228
Speaker 9: your vision. Man, you're a talented dude. I believe in

794
00:35:22,268 --> 00:35:25,108
Speaker 9: Deshaun Watson. I'm telling you, DeShawn. Just hear me out,

795
00:35:25,148 --> 00:35:26,228
Speaker 9: bro ball out.

796
00:35:26,828 --> 00:35:28,788
Speaker 3: I have a stack of billion papers over there with

797
00:35:28,948 --> 00:35:30,228
Speaker 3: highlights from the weekend.

798
00:35:30,268 --> 00:35:32,228
Speaker 4: It just plays on plays on plays. But sometimes we've

799
00:35:32,228 --> 00:35:33,028
Speaker 4: got to break away from the.

800
00:35:33,028 --> 00:35:35,388
Speaker 3: Desk and talk about your favorite moments from football.

801
00:35:35,468 --> 00:35:39,188
Speaker 7: First moment for me, okay, there is strong and then

802
00:35:39,228 --> 00:35:40,908
Speaker 7: there's vitam a strong.

803
00:35:41,268 --> 00:35:43,788
Speaker 6: Come here, little, I'm gonna take you for a ride.

804
00:35:44,108 --> 00:35:46,068
Speaker 5: You're supposed to go the other way O line.

805
00:35:46,228 --> 00:35:48,548
Speaker 7: That is called resetting the line of scrimmage.

806
00:35:48,548 --> 00:35:51,308
Speaker 5: I wish Via was my nose guard. I probably would

807
00:35:51,308 --> 00:35:52,468
Speaker 5: still be playing the NFL.

808
00:35:52,548 --> 00:35:57,708
Speaker 9: That's Roman punishment, bro mad that's awful.

809
00:35:57,748 --> 00:35:59,148
Speaker 2: My goodness, you know what I tell you.

810
00:35:59,188 --> 00:36:01,788
Speaker 9: My favorite moment from the weekend going to that forty

811
00:36:01,908 --> 00:36:03,068
Speaker 9: nine Ers Raiders game.

812
00:36:03,148 --> 00:36:04,308
Speaker 6: This game was back and forth.

813
00:36:04,468 --> 00:36:06,788
Speaker 10: It should have been interesting, but they made it real good.

814
00:36:06,988 --> 00:36:10,428
Speaker 10: But this last minute throw here helped Mary throw and

815
00:36:10,588 --> 00:36:13,308
Speaker 10: all of a sudden you see them going back and

816
00:36:13,348 --> 00:36:16,108
Speaker 10: forth and then look at this a little fumble Rooski.

817
00:36:16,468 --> 00:36:18,908
Speaker 10: This was so fun to watch it. I was sitting

818
00:36:18,908 --> 00:36:21,428
Speaker 10: there on the end, like what's gonna happen? As you know,

819
00:36:21,588 --> 00:36:25,068
Speaker 10: there is no overtime in the preseason, so they were

820
00:36:25,068 --> 00:36:27,068
Speaker 10: making the last ditch ever. Good good job by the

821
00:36:27,108 --> 00:36:29,268
Speaker 10: forty nine ers, but they didn't make it happen.

822
00:36:29,308 --> 00:36:29,748
Speaker 2: It was fun.

823
00:36:29,868 --> 00:36:35,148
Speaker 3: The sideline cared so much like where's the ballot? If

824
00:36:35,228 --> 00:36:37,468
Speaker 3: only that had finished that way, we'd have made an

825
00:36:37,588 --> 00:36:38,308
Speaker 3: entire segment.

826
00:36:38,508 --> 00:36:40,548
Speaker 2: Oh so good, Kyle.

827
00:36:40,828 --> 00:36:43,628
Speaker 3: If Bryce Young can do this, are we gonna spend

828
00:36:43,708 --> 00:36:47,148
Speaker 3: nine minutes on it the way we watched Kayleb.

829
00:36:46,908 --> 00:36:48,148
Speaker 4: Williams play in the preseason.

830
00:36:48,188 --> 00:36:50,548
Speaker 3: Because I saw something out of the Panthers quarterback this

831
00:36:50,628 --> 00:36:54,508
Speaker 3: weekend that looked awfully familiar to what we unpacked. I mean,

832
00:36:55,228 --> 00:36:56,108
Speaker 3: that's a nice throw.

833
00:36:56,428 --> 00:36:57,868
Speaker 4: That is a nice row.

834
00:36:58,108 --> 00:37:00,908
Speaker 3: And if we are going to be so hard, even

835
00:37:00,948 --> 00:37:03,428
Speaker 3: with the buckle on clip of the helmet, we're going

836
00:37:03,468 --> 00:37:06,348
Speaker 3: to be so hard on Bryce Young coming out of

837
00:37:06,348 --> 00:37:08,308
Speaker 3: his rookie season, we cannot.

838
00:37:08,028 --> 00:37:09,628
Speaker 4: We have to allow him space.

839
00:37:09,668 --> 00:37:10,388
Speaker 11: For me.

840
00:37:11,148 --> 00:37:13,428
Speaker 3: I saw this and I was like, I'm sorry, I'm

841
00:37:13,428 --> 00:37:14,268
Speaker 3: having deja vu?

842
00:37:14,388 --> 00:37:15,788
Speaker 4: Where have I seen this before?

843
00:37:15,828 --> 00:37:18,228
Speaker 3: I believe Kyle through me that one of the top

844
00:37:18,228 --> 00:37:20,868
Speaker 3: three throws in the NFL of AULTI time now I'm

845
00:37:20,868 --> 00:37:23,628
Speaker 3: going to add a fourth one to the list.

846
00:37:23,228 --> 00:37:24,268
Speaker 6: Oh let him.

847
00:37:24,388 --> 00:37:26,868
Speaker 1: I'm not comfortable with Caleb and Bryce side by side.

848
00:37:26,868 --> 00:37:27,308
Speaker 6: I'm just not.

849
00:37:27,388 --> 00:37:29,828
Speaker 1: But here, you know what, here's my favorite part of

850
00:37:29,868 --> 00:37:32,788
Speaker 1: the preseason. My favorite part of the preseason was this

851
00:37:32,828 --> 00:37:35,508
Speaker 1: weekend when the final seconds ticked away on the last

852
00:37:35,548 --> 00:37:39,268
Speaker 1: preseason game and the preseason was over. And I say

853
00:37:39,308 --> 00:37:41,188
Speaker 1: that out of respect for the athletes, the guys trying

854
00:37:41,228 --> 00:37:43,308
Speaker 1: to make the teams, and the broadcasters, but the NFL

855
00:37:43,348 --> 00:37:44,068
Speaker 1: does a funny thing.

856
00:37:44,068 --> 00:37:44,348
Speaker 5: Guys.

857
00:37:44,428 --> 00:37:46,628
Speaker 1: We go the whole off season and we're just so

858
00:37:46,868 --> 00:37:50,588
Speaker 1: hungry and so starving and so famous. Imagine the hungriest

859
00:37:50,588 --> 00:37:52,748
Speaker 1: you've ever been, and you just want football so bad

860
00:37:52,868 --> 00:37:55,228
Speaker 1: and I'm so hungry I'm gonna pass out. And then

861
00:37:55,428 --> 00:37:58,468
Speaker 1: we sit you down at a vegan restaurant. I'm like, God,

862
00:37:59,268 --> 00:38:02,788
Speaker 1: all right, well, I mean it's it's salty and it's

863
00:38:02,868 --> 00:38:06,428
Speaker 1: well made and everything, but can I get some chicken.

864
00:38:06,148 --> 00:38:07,388
Speaker 2: And ribs out of here please?

865
00:38:07,668 --> 00:38:09,708
Speaker 1: And you have to eat vegan food and you're not

866
00:38:09,748 --> 00:38:11,268
Speaker 1: a vegan for weeks.

867
00:38:11,348 --> 00:38:12,468
Speaker 6: And then you know what happens.

868
00:38:12,508 --> 00:38:15,748
Speaker 1: Next Thursday, they ring that dinner bell and they say

869
00:38:15,788 --> 00:38:18,708
Speaker 1: open bar, and there's ribs and steaks and martinis and

870
00:38:18,748 --> 00:38:20,908
Speaker 1: margarita's and it's just stuffed your face with.

871
00:38:20,948 --> 00:38:22,068
Speaker 6: Everything you really want.

872
00:38:22,508 --> 00:38:24,548
Speaker 1: But it's tough for those few weeks when I'm eating

873
00:38:24,628 --> 00:38:28,308
Speaker 1: like the tofurkey and the faux meat and the new

874
00:38:28,428 --> 00:38:31,028
Speaker 1: meat and the Wonder Burger and all that. That's what

875
00:38:31,068 --> 00:38:32,988
Speaker 1: we've been eating, and we're getting it down and it

876
00:38:32,988 --> 00:38:34,948
Speaker 1: has nutritive value and it's very important.

877
00:38:35,188 --> 00:38:37,388
Speaker 6: But it's almost chicken and ribs time.

878
00:38:37,468 --> 00:38:39,228
Speaker 1: Guys, say goodbye to the vegan restaurant.

879
00:38:39,228 --> 00:38:41,708
Speaker 6: I love you, Vegan Twitter, I just ain't party. I

880
00:38:41,748 --> 00:38:43,268
Speaker 6: love it and let's eat folks.

881
00:38:43,348 --> 00:38:46,428
Speaker 9: Wow, Hey, Kyle, you went beyond beef on net one.

882
00:38:46,468 --> 00:38:46,588
Speaker 6: Bro.

883
00:38:46,708 --> 00:38:48,508
Speaker 2: That was amazing. Bro, that was amazing.

884
00:38:48,548 --> 00:38:50,788
Speaker 3: I mean, it looks like meat, It bleeds like me.

885
00:38:51,308 --> 00:38:53,668
Speaker 4: It's not freeze. We need it.

886
00:38:53,948 --> 00:38:56,028
Speaker 6: We need meat light to

887
00:38:56,108 --> 00:38:57,388
Speaker 4: Bring us real football.
