But man, eleven hours, you're gonna. 17 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: Spend more time in like international airspace in the last 18 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: in the next seven days than in either London or 19 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: the United States. So that's that's what It's pretty solid. 20 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: Good for you, man, But. 21 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 4: You know, but you know what makes it worth it 22 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 4: being diamond. We won't we want. 23 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 5: Airline, but you know what, you know what it's worth 24 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 5: it When you're a diamond, it doesn't matter. 25 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 1: Hey, joying Now it's all going away, brother. 26 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 4: Hey, No, No, they talked about some changes. They talked 27 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 4: about some changes trying to bring it back. 28 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you what. This is a glimpse inside 29 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: to the scouting robe. 30 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 3: By the way, we talked about the scouting show about 31 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 3: hotel points and airline miles than the road dog scouts. 32 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 2: Buck, let's jump into last night's game. 33 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 3: This was a to say, it was a buck kicking 34 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 3: his innerceavement. Twenty four to three is the final score. 35 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 3: It didn't even feel that close in a game where 36 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 3: the Giants offensively ran the ball pretty well but didn't 37 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 3: really have to do anything. 38 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: I mean, sorry, not the Giants. 39 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 3: The Seahawks random pretty well, but other than that, they 40 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 3: didn't have to really do anything offensively. They just throw 41 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 3: your defense out there and watch the Giants implode offensively, 42 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 3: which is what happened. 43 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 2: Eleven sacks, turnovers. 44 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 3: The Giants couldn't do anything offensively in this game, and 45 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 3: it felt like Pete Carroll on the Sea Hawks were 46 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: content to just, hey, let's just run the ball and 47 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 3: get out of here. 48 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: They're not going to do anything on the other side. 49 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's something to it. 50 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 5: It was very kind of like a throwback feel to 51 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 5: this game when it came from the Seahawks perspective defense 52 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 5: was able to get after the eleven sacks and the 53 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 5: relentless pressure that they were able to apply on Daniel Jones. 54 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 4: To me, that's what stood out. 55 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 5: This is a team that has really tried to find 56 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 5: its way on defense, and we're beginning to see the 57 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 5: last two classes that they've stacked together, some of the 58 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 5: free agent additions that they've added to it. This is 59 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 5: more like the vintage Seahawks teams that we remember from 60 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 5: the twenty tens. If they're able to kind of harass 61 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 5: quarterbacks and bruising, batter running backs and wide receivers like 62 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 5: they were. 63 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 4: On Monday Night, this Seattle Seahawk. 64 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 5: Team looks really, really good in a division that also 65 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 5: features a bully into San Francisco forty nine ers. This 66 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 5: looks like a team that can go toe to toe 67 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 5: with some of those top teams. 68 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hawks and Niners first matchup will be pretty interesting here. 69 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: You know, I kept looking at what the Giants were 70 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 1: dealing with, right and I'll be they're short handed coming 71 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: in along the offensive line. Andrew Thomas is out again 72 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: has been out. Obviously, They're still not quite where they 73 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: want to be on the right side. But then you 74 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 1: know you got John Michael Schmidtz, the rookie center who 75 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: leaves in the first quarter of the game. You gotta 76 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: move Bretison over to center. Lemieux comes in and guard. 77 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: Then Lemieux goes down in the fourth quarter, and yeah, 78 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: you're talking about like preseason rotations of offensive linemen in 79 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: here in the second half, and it showed. But I 80 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: think to say that it was all because the giants 81 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: Seva patchwork offensive line right now is not giving enough 82 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: proper respect to the Seattle Seahawks, who not only thirty 83 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: six pressures this week, okay, thirty six pressures to leave 84 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: the league Daniel Jones and the Giants this week. But 85 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: it's not just this week. They led the league in 86 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: pressures last week too. Like this, they are sandwiched right 87 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: in between the forty nine ers and the Cowboys amongst 88 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: teams that are getting the most pressure on quarterbacks right 89 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: now at number two. That's pretty dang good. And who's 90 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: who's doing it? Yeah, Newtendan wils who's part of it? 91 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: How about Derek Hall, the rookie second round pick from Auburn. 92 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: And we didn't talk about a ton really going into 93 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: the draft last year. But you know it was one 94 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: of those guys that was putting a ton of pressure 95 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: on Daniel Jones last night. How about Boye Mafe really 96 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: starting to come on the second round pick a couple 97 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: of years agout of Minnesota, Like they've got some young 98 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: players in there, let you know some vintage you know, 99 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: some veteran excuse me, guys as well. And then you 100 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: had a vintage performance from Bobby Wagner too. And when 101 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: you start getting all that pressure DJ, that's when guys 102 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: like Devin Witherspoon start to pay off in the back end. 103 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna get to Witherspoons just a second. I'm 104 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 3: gonna go back though. You mentioned Derek Hall. Let's go 105 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 3: back to the press scouting pre draft nuggets on him. 106 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: So he was almost sixt three, two hundred and fifty 107 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 3: four pounds. He had thirty four and a half inch arms, 108 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: so really really long arms. He ran four five five, 109 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 3: which is an outstanding time. I go back through my 110 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 3: notes on him. He was my sixty fourth overall player. 111 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 3: Long and explosive, he's a little bit tight hip. They 112 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 3: used him kind of as a walk around. Blitzer moved 113 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 3: him around, let him work up and down the line 114 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: of scrimmage. He could really really close. The effort was outstanding, 115 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 3: which we always preach on here about that being one 116 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: of the key traits of every elite pass rusher is 117 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 3: the effort and the consistency of the effort. He could 118 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 3: really set the edge in the run game as well. 119 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 3: So nice to see him kind of emerging that burst 120 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 3: that we saw in college. That's translated, But I want 121 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 3: to go the highlight of the day. I mean, Devin 122 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 3: Witherspoon has two sacks, has a pick six ninety plus 123 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 3: yards down there right on the goal line. He was 124 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 3: all over the field and they're playing him inside at 125 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 3: nickel because of some injuries. And I go back through 126 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 3: and I look at my notes. You know, this ought 127 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 3: to be encouraging to you if you're a little undersized 128 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 3: out there and you love the. 129 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: Game of football. 130 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 4: And he said, maybe I'm too small. 131 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 3: The guy you're looking at with the with the pick 132 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 3: six here and the two sacks was one hundred and 133 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 3: fifty pounds as a freshman in college. They played him inside, 134 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 3: they played him outside. He ended up getting up to 135 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty one pounds by the combine, but 136 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 3: I had compared him to Samari Roll coming out, and 137 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,119 Speaker 3: he was the top corner for me in the draft 138 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 3: in this last year's class, but in terms of a 139 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 3: slighter frame, but just unbelo evil instincts, ball skills, playmaking ability. 140 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 3: Buck watching that game last night and seeing him playing 141 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: the nickel, I was thinking of Antoine Winfield Senior, and 142 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: I know he's taller than him, Antoine Winfield Senior, I 143 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: think with five nine or maybe even a little under 144 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 3: five to nine, But the way he played that nickel position. 145 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 4: I saw the same thing last night with Witherspoon. 146 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean that's not a bad comparison because you 147 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 5: just think about what Antoine Winfield was able to do 148 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 5: in the league for a long time, and he's certainly 149 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 5: passed down some of those tips and instincts to his son. 150 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 5: But for Witherspoon, the thing that stood out to me 151 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 5: is the nickel position is the hardest position to master 152 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 5: in the second year because you're having to deal with 153 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 5: the money game, the passing game two way goes from 154 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 5: wide receivers. The instincts and awareness that are required to 155 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 5: play that position, it's typically not one that you can 156 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 5: put a novice in there. He jumped in after Jamal 157 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 5: Adams subse a concussion and they don't skip a beat. 158 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 5: They bliss him off the edge a couple of times 159 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 5: he gets in there. It makes plays. We've seen it 160 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 5: on tape. He wasn't afraid to mix it up, putting 161 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 5: another playmaker owned the field of the position where he's 162 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 5: kind of close to the ball. The Seahawks might have 163 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 5: accidentally uncover something that allows their defense to go to 164 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 5: another level this season. 165 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, he doesn't play with any hesitation. He trusts his 166 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 3: eyes and he pulls the trigger and goes. And that's 167 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 3: something you saw as a result of tape study, by 168 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 3: the way, which he did at Illinois. 169 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: They raved about it. 170 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 3: And obviously he's doing the same thing here with Pete 171 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: Carroll and these Seahawks. So a great, great start to 172 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 3: the career for Devin Witherspoon. Somebody who's having an unbelievable 173 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 3: year is with the forty nine ers. 174 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: That shouldn't be a shock. It's Christian McCaffrey. 175 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 3: This is a perfect marriage of skill set which is 176 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 3: special with scheme and with Kyle Shanahan an offensive line, 177 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 3: and he's been outstanding. But you look at the touches here, man, 178 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: it's piling up. You look at this game Week four 179 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 3: against the Cardinals, twenty seven for McCaffrey, twenty four for 180 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 3: everybody else. The productions off the charts there, rat But 181 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: when you look at just the touches, he's on pace 182 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: for three hundred and forty carries. That would be a 183 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 3: career high by thirty something rushes. He also catching the 184 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 3: ball out of the backfield as well. 185 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 4: You see the. 186 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: Number forty six percent of the team's touches, most in 187 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 3: the NFL for Christian McCaffrey. Is this Is this a concern? 188 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 3: Is this something they need to monitor and dial down 189 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 3: a little bit? Or did you just go with the hey, 190 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 3: we're going to run to the wheels fall off on 191 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 3: this one. 192 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: Well, you know, I'm okay with running till the wheels 193 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: fall off, as long as that's in, you know, like 194 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: the third weekend of February and not like week sixteen, 195 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: you know, and not into the playoffs right where you're 196 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: talking about. You know, yeah, he's see how he's limited, 197 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: didn't practice all week, and you know, maybe he can 198 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: give us, you know, fifteen fifteen, twenty, you know, snaps 199 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: or carry. I hope it doesn't come to that. And look, 200 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: I mean, he is a big, strong, physical dude, but 201 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: he has had, you know, some durability issues. And what 202 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: eighty carries already on pace for three hundred and twenty 203 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: that's just what the carries and not in the pass game. 204 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: So that's a lot of touches. Would be for sure 205 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: a career high if it keeps up at this pace. 206 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: I was just looking the rest of the running backs 207 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: twenty five combined carries for Elijah Mitchell and I threw 208 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: Kyle ust Check in there too, so like they just 209 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: they don't have a ton of other, you know, carries 210 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: to kind of pass around there. It's kind of all 211 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: going to McCaffrey. But it's look when you look at 212 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: the success rate in so many different ways, like he 213 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 1: is getting a first down or a touchdown on thirty 214 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: percent of his carries. Pretty efficient right there. He leads 215 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: the league in yards per carry. He's second only to 216 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift and Bijon who have thirty fewer carries. I said, 217 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: nearly leads the league in yards per carries, second only 218 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: to those two guys. The explosive runs way up there 219 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 1: at the top more impressibly here, and this tells you 220 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: a little bit something about how good the offensive line is, 221 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: and then how good he is. He is second in 222 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: rushing yards before contact, right so he is the second 223 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: most rushing yards before he gets touched, and then he's 224 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: first in yards after contact. So that is truly like 225 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: marrying really good offensive line, play good scheme with an 226 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: elite running back. Right there, I understand why you want 227 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 1: to keep feeding him the rock buck. 228 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 5: I just looked at the snippets we talk about his 229 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 5: touch He's not getting touched when he touches the ball, 230 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 5: Like three of those touchdowns, he didn't get touched like 231 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 5: it was like playing flag football. So I understand the 232 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 5: concern because it's early in the year and it might 233 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 5: be a situation where you're monitoring the carriers. Maybe in 234 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 5: the middle of the year, maybe you have to dial 235 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 5: back and scale it back, But right now it's working 236 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 5: so well. Man, it's hard to say, hey, guys, I 237 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 5: know our guy's crushing it. He's one of the more 238 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 5: productive players in the National Football League. Let's make sure 239 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 5: we kind of use him wisely. He's been so good 240 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 5: for this team. That's just hard. Thirteen straight games he's 241 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 5: touch He scored a touchdown for the Niners. 242 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 4: I understand it. You talk about the perfect marriage between 243 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 4: player and scheme. 244 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey teaming up with Kyle Shanahan in this game 245 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 5: has been lights out. That's why we're seeing the numbers 246 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 5: that we're seeing from the fantastic All Pro playmate. 247 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 3: While he's got a couple of big ones coming up, 248 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 3: starting with the Dallas Cowboys, a Sunday nighter at home 249 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 3: that's going to be a huge one against a really 250 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 3: good Then they go on the road at Cleveland with 251 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 3: Miles Garrett Jim Schwartz to orchestraight in that defense. So 252 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 3: he's got a couple big tests coming up. Maybe if 253 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 3: you are going to dial back the touches, maybe you 254 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 3: wait for a couple weeks. Let's get to these next 255 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 3: two games, which are going to be very difficult opponents, 256 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 3: and then maybe you try and dial it back just 257 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 3: a little bit. On the other side of that thing, Buck, 258 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 3: you look at the Arizona Cardinals in that ballgame. Hey, 259 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 3: they're competitive. It's in the third corner. They're competitive. They've 260 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 3: been competitive each and every week. Is there something that 261 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 3: we missed that we didn't that we didn't process correctly 262 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 3: in the offseason. What are expectations of how terrible this 263 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 3: was going to be and yet how competitive this team 264 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 3: has been. Whatud we miss I think we might have 265 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: missed out on a few different things. 266 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 5: More money awesome for bringing in the right players to 267 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 5: kind of blend in with Jonathan Gannon's system and culture, 268 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 5: and then Jonathan Gannon being able to find the right 269 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 5: buttons to motivate his team to play ard. 270 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 4: There are a lot of things that you can make 271 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,239 Speaker 4: up in terms of your deficiencies. 272 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 5: If you play or you give great effort, you have 273 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 5: a level of physicality to your game. 274 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 4: When you watch the Cardinals, they have all of those things. 275 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 5: And really, when I look at this roster, you have 276 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 5: a bunch of misfits and cast dolls that are finally 277 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 5: having an opportunity to kind of shine on the biggest stage. 278 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 5: Think about Josh Dobbs, who was kind of languishing in 279 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 5: Cleveland as a number three. 280 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 4: He has an opportunity in Arizona to be the starter. 281 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 5: He is taking full advantage of those reps, and so 282 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 5: it's just kind of I would say we talked about 283 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 5: the perfect marriage between Christian McCaffrey, Klee, Shnan. But you 284 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 5: kind of have that going on in Arizona. You have 285 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 5: a coach who wants guys that are hungry, guys that 286 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 5: are getting after it, and you have a bunch of 287 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 5: misfits that are playing really, really well, and even though 288 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 5: the record isn't what they want, it's hard to knock 289 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 5: the effort into the hustle because it looks great. 290 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 4: On tape now. 291 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 3: And I'm happy for Josh Dobbs because this is somebody 292 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 3: again he's only played playing in eight games since twenty 293 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 3: eighteen throughout his career, so he didn't hadn't got much opportunity. 294 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 3: He now he's got four starts here, he's not turning 295 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: the ball over, he's got no interceptions, He's completing over 296 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 3: seventy percent of his passes. So that kind of shows 297 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 3: you in this league, if you're going to offensively, just 298 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 3: don't turn the ball over, protect the football, I get 299 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 3: the ball out of your hand, be accurate with it. 300 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 3: You know, there's they're not the most dynamic team. I 301 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 3: like Michael Wilson that the rookie receiver has got a 302 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 3: chance to be a really good player for them. But hey, 303 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 3: let's just protect the football and on defense they play 304 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 3: so hard, and I give Gannon a lot of credit 305 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 3: for how hard they're playing on that side of the ball. 306 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: All right, let's take a break. When we come back, 307 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 3: we're going to jump into the rookies. The rookie Draft, 308 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 3: one of our favorite things we do each and every week. 309 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 3: We can recap last week. Spoiler alert, I didn't go 310 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 3: well for Rhett. We'll get to that right after this 311 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 3: Sunday Morning Football is back on NFL Network and bigger 312 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 3: than ever.

Looking forward to that one. 317 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 3: Bucky will be there so I have a chance to 318 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: recap that one when he gets back. Speaking of recapping, 319 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 3: looking at the rookie draft last week, we had to 320 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 3: change it up a little bit where we didn't have 321 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 3: known about the quarterback situation, so we did a running back, 322 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 3: We did a pass catcher at the tight end position, 323 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 3: as well as the receiver position. And hey lo and 324 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 3: behold look at that? Who won all three? With eight chan, 325 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 3: Pooka Nakua and Sam Laporta. That's a nine point week 326 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 3: for me, Bucky with three second place finishes. Well, if 327 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 3: there's three guys in it, I finished first and all 328 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 3: of them Bucky finished second. 329 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: Oait Yeah, HTT got sake. 330 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: RHTT came up with nothing. Bucky and myself. 331 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 3: We're tied at the top now for the season with 332 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 3: eighteen points. Rehtt's looking up a little bit. He's got 333 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 3: some ground to make up. The good news for you, 334 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 3: RHTT is that you are going to get the first 335 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: pick here in just a moment. But before we do that, 336 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 3: I'll let you crawl a little bit because you were 337 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 3: on the Pookin Nakua train early. Obviously you don't get 338 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 3: the benefit of the points there because of poor drafting, 339 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: but I'll give you credit for being on that one 340 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 3: a little early. 341 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: Well, look, when you have the trust of your head 342 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: coach and the trust to your quarterback, you're gonna get 343 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: set and Pokinakua, you know, while not maybe the most 344 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: elite athlete that we add in the wide receiver class, 345 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: shows you that he can get open he can catch 346 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: the ball, you can make contested catches, physical catches. He 347 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: can get inside on slant routes and be it, you know, 348 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: make himself open for Matthew Stafford. And even when he 349 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: when maybe even isn't you know the read, Stafford just 350 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 1: loves getting this dude the ball, especially on those inbreaking 351 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 1: routes in that fifteen to twenty yard range, I mean 352 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: those intermediate throws. Stafford eats on that stuff all day long. 353 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: And poka Akua, I mean like seventy five percent of 354 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: his routes feels like they are coming some sort of 355 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: inbreaking cut in that intermediate range. And he is just 356 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: so nifty at finding a way to get open in 357 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: that area. And then of course his game, his first 358 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: career touchdown is the game winner. You love that, And 359 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: it's just it's all working out right now. And I 360 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: mean we're talking about the most prolific rookie receiver in 361 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: NFL history through four games. Pretty dang good. Yeah, he 362 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: was on my team week one. You better believe it. 363 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: We were on it from the jump, on it. 364 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 4: From the jump. 365 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 5: But you don't get any carrier, We don't get any 366 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 5: body points for being able to point him out in 367 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 5: week one, we're now in week four. 368 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 4: Remove me on it. 369 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 5: This to me is it's kind of like the perfect 370 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 5: thing when it comes to having a sweet tooth, Like 371 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 5: you got your type, you know what kind of desserts 372 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 5: you like, and you go back to the well. And 373 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 5: so I go and I look at the comparison between 374 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 5: Cooper Cup and Pooka, and. 375 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 4: Size wise they're very very similar. 376 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 5: Speed wise they were also similar, and you look at 377 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 5: their careers in terms of how they got down at 378 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 5: BYU and Eastern Washington respectively, there are a lot of similarities. 379 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 5: And so when you have Cooper Cup go out, they're 380 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 5: able to basically put a clone in and put him 381 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 5: in the same spot and allow them to have kind 382 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 5: of the similar success. To me, the challenge isn't what's 383 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 5: going to happen with Poka as he's continued to do 384 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 5: it with Cooper Cup out. What are the Rams going 385 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 5: to do when Cooper Cup comes back because he's been 386 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 5: so productive in this role. 387 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 4: Do I want to remove him from this role and 388 00:16:58,400 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 4: put Cooper Cup there? 389 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 5: Or do I want to maybe think about moving Cooper 390 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 5: Cup around and allowing Pooka to be productive because the 391 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 5: offense has kind of been working with Pooker kind. 392 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 4: Of running over the middle. 393 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 5: Maybe we can do some other stuff with Cooper Cup 394 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 5: and find a way to get both of these guys 395 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 5: on the field at the same time cats on a 396 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 5: bunch of touchdowns. 397 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad you brought that up, because to me, 398 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 3: I don't think this is going to be a problem. 399 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: If you think back to you know, the teams with 400 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 3: Robert Woods there with Cooper Cup that we always talked 401 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 3: about how the fact that the changeable that that's what 402 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 3: make this makes this McVeigh offense role, is that these 403 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 3: guys can all move around, play every position. They run 404 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 3: so much bunch that they condense the formation down so 405 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 3: they're stacked, and you know, they're all going to get 406 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 3: a chance to work in the middle of the field 407 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 3: and work on crossers and really kind of operate in space. 408 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 3: Uh you know, which is is something that they can 409 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 3: all do. So you know, ratt For me, I don't 410 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 3: think that's going to be I don't think that's going 411 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 3: to be an issue. 412 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 2: When when Cooper Cup comes back. 413 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: No, and now you know you add Cooper back into 414 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: the mix and you've already seen we talked about a 415 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 1: little bit about it on the Monday Pod deet that 416 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: you know, Ard Williams is really rounding into form, as 417 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: you know, a lead back type of guy. Scored touchdowns 418 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: on their first two possessions in Indianapolis, and so like, 419 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: you know, kind of slowly but surely you're talking about 420 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 1: a nice little young core on offense. And then you 421 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: know you've got the big play potential with two to 422 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: two at well obviously Van Jefferson still there, so like 423 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: you're building some depth there now they can get a 424 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: little bit healthier up front on the offensive line. I mean, 425 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford is rolling this year too, so I got 426 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: no issues and no worries about him finding the open dude, 427 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: no matter who it is in that Rams offense. 428 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 3: All right, you got you got a goose egg last week. 429 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 3: You've got the first pick, so you got it. You 430 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 3: have to find a point score here. You have to 431 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 3: at least get a one or two place finish here 432 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 3: with this first overall pick. 433 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,120 Speaker 4: Right, who are you going with? 434 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,360 Speaker 1: It's c J Stroud. 435 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 4: C J. 436 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: Stroud, Texans, lock it up, give me the give me 437 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: the QB. He's you know, he's three hundred a game 438 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: right now? You know he's he scored, He's found a 439 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 1: terrific chemistry with Nico Collins. Give me CJ. Stroud get 440 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: two tough downs another three hundred yards, all right? 441 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 3: I like that one. Man, I could I could go 442 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 3: a couple different places here. Pukah's was good to me 443 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 3: last week. But man, going up against the Eagles, I 444 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 3: know the Eagles gave up thirty burger to Washington, but 445 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 3: I think they kind of bounce back in that one. 446 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 2: So I think I'm gonna man, I've got to get points. 447 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 3: So look, I'm gonna go with Richardson. I'm gonna take 448 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 3: the second quarterback. Richardson's been a point score as She's 449 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 3: got four rushing touchdowns already, so I feel good that 450 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 3: he's gonna at least get me a point for second place. 451 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 3: Maybe he gets me the full three points for being first. 452 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 3: But both quarterbacks there off the board, Buck, which gives 453 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 3: you some strategy. You could you can go anywhere you 454 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 3: want to give him back to back pace. 455 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it gives me a lot of strategy. I used 456 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 4: to watch a team when I was a kid. 457 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 5: I used to love when a playing comes together, because 458 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 5: right now the plan is really coming together. 459 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:49,360 Speaker 4: I'm gonna take. 460 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 5: I'm gonna take I'm gonna take Bijon Robinson right here 461 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:54,959 Speaker 5: at number three, and then I'm gonna follow it up 462 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 5: with Puka. So now I have two of the most 463 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 5: prolific guys in our little draft all my squall right now, 464 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 5: and I'll worry about having to take Bryce Young later, 465 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 5: but I've already got it. Like I look forward to 466 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 5: uh hoisting the trophy for week five because. 467 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:13,239 Speaker 1: I interesting that you took Bijon going up against this 468 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: Texans defense coached by Demico Ryans that is absolutely playing 469 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,199 Speaker 1: inspired right now and limited the Steelers to what like 470 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: zero yards. It felt like after watching that game. Okay, okay, Buck, 471 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: if that's the strategy, go for it, Bud. 472 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go up pull us in personal saw Bijon 473 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 5: do all kinds of stuff while you were watching Toy Story. 474 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 5: I was watching it for real. This dude is is 475 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 5: amazing now. I think he's gonna get enough touches. 476 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 1: All right, dj what do you got? 477 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 4: All right? 478 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 5: Man? 479 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 3: Hmm, Look, I'm gonna go uh.

Who's been who's been awesome? 482 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 3: And and by the way, uh rtt you're up next, 483 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 3: but I'll just kick it to you on this one. 484 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 3: This is like, if you've got a chance to watch 485 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 3: Chris Johnson play with an explosive vertical passing attack, like 486 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 3: think about CJ two K getting all those yards where 487 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 3: everbody was just kind of packed in there to try 488 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 3: and slow him down he was the offense. 489 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: Now imagine him playing with Tyreek Hill and Waddle and all. 490 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 3: The speed outside which is gonna scare safeties out of 491 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 3: there and give him that type of space. 492 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 2: That's literally what it looks like. 493 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 3: It looks like they've got Chris Johnson back there going 494 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 3: up against light boxes. 495 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 2: It's just not fair. 496 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: This is tough, guys. I mean, there's is it though. 497 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: There's just nothing left at the running back spot. Jamir Gibbs, 498 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: I look these you know, really talented dude, but it's 499 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: been a dud thus far.

I mean, obviously I 501 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: don't have to take the running back right now because 502 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: you guys both have your running backs. So all I'm 503 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: trying to do ear is find my best path forward. 504 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: From the receiver spot. 505 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 3: And we got back to back picks, buddy, So you 506 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 3: can do whatever you want here. 507 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:58,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll pay attention. 508 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: All right, Me up with the lock, me up with 509 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: a Flowers.

There's 518 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 3: absolutely zero relevance to which one of those guys you 519 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: took first, Absolutely none. 520 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 2: But yet Rhet has he's scrimmaging this thing, buck.

Is this the first time he's been 542 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 3: selected in the draft? 543 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 4: Right? 544 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 3: It is Michael Wilson out of Stanford, coming off of 545 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 3: a huge game last week. 546 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: Buck. 547 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 3: By the way, Michael Wilson and Pokin Nakua both trained 548 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 3: with with Hushman. 549 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: Zada in the run up to the draft. 550 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 3: If you're a receiver and you want to get ready 551 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 3: figure for the NFL, yeah, maybe go work out with 552 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 3: him because and oh, by the way, who else t 553 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 3: Higgins when he was going through the draft process, talk 554 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 3: about guys who were you know, underrated and who got 555 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 3: incredible value with where they were selected. 556 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 4: Who's doing a great job there? You got the last 557 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 4: pick bucket, Well, I mean, I don't have a choice. 558 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 5: I'm gonna take Bryce Young Bryce s Youngnings has to 559 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 5: has to find a way to get it done for 560 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 5: the Carolina Panthers. It has been really extremely disappointing to 561 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 5: see this offense and to see what Bryce shan has 562 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 5: had to work with. Uh, the production hasn't been there, 563 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 5: and I didn't think that he would set the world 564 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 5: on fire. But I thought, and many of us talked 565 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 5: about we kind of felt like this Panthers team would 566 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 5: be a playoff contender based on some of the pieces 567 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 5: that they had in place defensively and how they would 568 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 5: get it going. That hasn't materialized, and my guys getting 569 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 5: battered and beat up, and I'm beginning to worry about 570 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 5: I'm losing this confidence. 571 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 4: But this is the bouts back week. 572 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 5: Let's say week five, Bryce Shon finds a way to 573 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 5: put some points on the board. 574 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 3: Yes, all right, Well, hey, he's got better every game. 575 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 3: When you look at it, the trend line is is 576 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 3: improving each and every week. So hopefully this is the 577 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 3: maybe a breakout game there for Bryce Young. All Right, 578 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 3: that's gonna do it for the rookie draft. This is 579 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 3: a this is a bounce back week for rett I 580 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 3: can feel it. I like the squad that he's assembled. 581 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 3: I think he's got a chance to maybe score point or. 582 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 2: Two this week, which will be exciting. 583 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 3: Get him back in the mix a little bit, see 584 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 3: if we can make this competitive. 585 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 2: All Right, that's going to do it for today. On 586 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 2: tomorrow's show. 587 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 3: Looking forward to this one because as much as we 588 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 3: talk about the rookies on the offensive side of the ball, 589 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 3: we're going to shift the focus and the attention to 590 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 3: the defensive side of the ball on tomorrow's episode. So 591 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 3: encourage you guys to join us. Appreciate all the ratings 592 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 3: and reviews you continue to give us.
