1
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: Welcome back. I am Dale Lalli. He is Matt Williamson,

2
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: and this is the Drive on Steelers Nation Radio and

3
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: ESPN nine seventy where you get the wall to wall

4
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: coverage of Steelers training camp here at Saint Vincent College

5
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 1: of Steelers wrapping up their number six practice of the

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: session here and that was a padded practice or second one.

7
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: They'll be padded all this week and then we'll see

8
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: what happens next week that you.

9
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: Stuck gearing down a little bit.

10
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: Yes, as the first that first game comes along, they

11
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 1: will be down at Tampa Bay.

12
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: And I mentioned Tampa Bay because.

13
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm reading a Bill Barnwell piece here on ESPN dot

14
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 1: com and he ranks the fourteen teams that made last

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: year's playoff field from fourteen to one in terms of

16
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: their ability to return to the postseason, and at number

17
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: fourteen are the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They have no shot

18
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: at making the playoffs issue.

19
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: And the only thing going for him is they're in

20
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: a terrible division. Like but I wouldn't even give him

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: a twenty five percent chance to win that division.

22
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: I give him a better chance of finishing a last

23
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: winning but they weren't that good close.

24
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: They weren't that good last year, right the division or

25
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 2: made I think they're last in that division too. I

26
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 2: bet Carolina is better than they are. I would be

27
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: willing to bet that.

28
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: His reason why they're number fourteen they're starting Baker Mayfield

29
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: or Kyle Trask at quarterback.

30
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: That's a great, great reason to put him at fourteen.

31
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: They got like seventy million in dead money. They might

32
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: be thirtieth in the in the league. Yeah, they're a

33
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 2: bottom five team.

34
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, at number thirteen, the New York Giants, And his

35
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: reason why they're number thirteen is their formula isn't sustainable.

36
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 2: What is it? What's he mean by that? They won

37
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: nine games last season.

38
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: Two of those came against playoff teams, a four point

39
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: victory over the Ravens and a six point win over

40
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, and consecutive weeks both required fourth quarter comebacks,

41
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: something that was a constant in New York's games.

42
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: They thrived into fourth They were below average.

43
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: By win EXPECTANCYE in quarters one through three, and then

44
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: the second best team in football by the same metric

45
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter.

46
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a very good point. They walked the edge

47
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 2: a lot. They walked the edge a lot, and they

48
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: pulled themselves out at the end. Yeah, fell on fell

49
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: into the good side of it a lot. But the

50
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 2: Vikings were the poster boys of that. They had all

51
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: these fourth quarter comebacks. So I'm sure we'll get to that.

52
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: At one point one score wins, I mean, at best,

53
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: the Giants are the third best team in their division, right,

54
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: but the NFC soft, I mean, they could be the

55
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: seventh you know, they could be the seventh wildcard team

56
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: at number twelve? Are those Vikings you see? I sets

57
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 2: a trend here. Yeah, and their formula is unbelievably unstateable.

58
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 1: Why their number twelve? They weren't very good. They weren't

59
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: a very good team. In twenty twenty two, No FPI

60
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: ranked them as the sixteenth best team in football. Football

61
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: Siders was even more dramatic, ranking it as the twenty

62
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: seventh best team.

63
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: Twenty seventh team football. And they won thirteen games. That's nuts.

64
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: And they're much work. They're much closer to five hunder

65
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: team and they are a thirteen win team. Lost more

66
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,639
Speaker 2: this offseason than they've gained, especially in the defense. Is

67
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: pretty rough. Yeah, it's gonna be pretty rough. I mean,

68
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 2: but who wins that division? I mean most in Detroit.

69
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: I think Green Bay is a better chance. In Minnesota.

70
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm not in on Chicago. Yeah, I'm not there either.

71
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, but three straight NFC teams to start this exercise off.

72
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 2: Which is odd because it's easier there. Yeah, you would think,

73
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, I don't think the Rams

74
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 2: are going on. The Cardinals are going right at number eleven.

75
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: The Miami Dolphins, boy at division's rough schedules are rough.

76
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: AFC's are rough. Why they're number eleven? Questions about their health?

77
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: Oh by that? Yeah, they're not a very deep team

78
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: and they already lost.

79
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: Ramsey shop has not been a guy who's been no,

80
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: you know, goes out and plays every game.

81
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: Two was the big one. Sure, Yeah, I mean they've

82
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: got some. But as good as their offense is, what

83
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 2: if Tyreek or Waddall missed a game? Yeah, you know,

84
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: like there's no third receiver, there's no tight end. You know,

85
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 2: like the running backs aren't special. No, I agree with that. Yeah,

86
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: number ten, I might give the Vikes a better chance

87
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 2: to go than the Dolphins. I might too, Yeah, just

88
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: because of my vision that they right right right.

89
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: Number ten is the Baltimore Ravens and why they're number ten,

90
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: change breeds uncertainty smart, I say, yah, yeah, everybody's.

91
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 2: Assuming that Todd Monkin is going to be an upgrade,

92
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: be an upgrade over Greg Roman. Maybe they try this

93
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,359
Speaker 2: and it doesn't work. It could be. I don't like

94
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 2: their defense that much, especially up front, and just like

95
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 2: the Jets, really tough division, really tough conference. You stumble

96
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: your toe for a month or so, then you're really

97
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 2: gonna be up against it. It's just brutal competition.

98
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there's a reason why they went away

99
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: from the offense that they you know, do a more

100
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: pass friendly offense when they put Lamar in.

101
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, maybe they should just keep doing what he

102
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: does best. And maybe they will. I don't know. That's

103
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 2: what we just don't know it is. And like you said,

104
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: it's uncertain. Yeah, I think was the word to use.

105
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 1: And again one with you. I don't think their defense

106
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: is as good as it has been.

107
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 2: No, I mean it might be the fourth best defense

108
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 2: in the in the division. It might be. Yeah, yeah,

109
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: you're right.

110
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: Number nine the Los Angeles Chargers. The reason why they're

111
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 1: number nine they're returning to health. You wouldn't think that

112
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: would be the situation here. But they've got a bunch

113
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 1: of guys who are coming back off of major injuries

114
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,239
Speaker 1: last year Later Slater Jackson, Keenan Allen, and Mike Williams.

115
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: Right. Uh, these guys are all getting old. Herbert was

116
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 2: not one hundred or for much of the year. You know,

117
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: most of those guys are. You know, j C.

118
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Jackson has been around a while, Keenan Allen been around

119
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: a while. Mike Evans is older than I think. You know,

120
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: people think Bosa's getting up in age.

121
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's expensive too. Yeah, but that's a side note.

122
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: I like the Chargers chances better than the Ravens or Dolphins. Yeah,

123
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 2: I think they are better team on paper if they

124
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 2: can stay healthy. Yeah, that's the key point there. And

125
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 2: then they get to play the Raiders and Broncos twice

126
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 2: as opposed to Steelers, Browns, Patriots. You know, number eight,

127
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 2: the Seattle Seahawks. I'm fine with that. Yeah, and I

128
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 2: think I'll pick them as a division as a as

129
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: a playoff team. You know, I don't think they're the

130
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: number two in that division. They're number two in that division,

131
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 2: but they're fifth in the conference or something like that.

132
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: That's just why they're number eight. Have you seen the NFC?

133
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, yeah, now you're starting to get into these

134
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: these top eight or nineteen, you know, the top teams

135
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: here are teams that.

136
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: They have a better shot there. Yeah, there's gonna be

137
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 2: positive statements about them. Not why they'll be out, but

138
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: why they'll be in Jacksonville. Why they're number seven. It's

139
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 2: probably a two team race in the AFC South. Let

140
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 2: me know which two teams. Who's the second thing? Not

141
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 2: Tennessee for me, he says, you know, the Colts and

142
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 2: the Texans. Maybe Wells, who knows. They haven't done it yet.

143
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 2: I'm not predicting this, but I heard someone reference it

144
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 2: that are the Jags the next Bengals in that first

145
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: overall quarterback? Now they got the coach starting to hit

146
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 2: their stride. Could they be a twelve thirteen win team

147
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: for the next three or four years in that division? Yeah,

148
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 2: I kind of think they could be. Right. I could

149
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 2: paint a picture where they go six and zero in

150
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 2: a division. Yeah, no doubt. I mean, you only need

151
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 2: to win, you know, five games up beyond that to

152
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 2: get division. They're going to playoffs right at number six.

153
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: The Bengals.

154
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Why they're number six, The AFC North is hotter than

155
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: it seems.

156
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think Barnball's a Steeler believer. I

157
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 2: think he's a Browns believer. That's why the Ravens were

158
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: quite as low as they were. Yeah, and their quarterbacks

159
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 2: a little up in the air at the moment, right.

160
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 2: You know. It's also, as he mentions here, a transition

161
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: year in their secondary Yeah, the defense as a hole

162
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 2: seeing a slow change of what they're doing. Yeah.

163
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 1: At number five, the forty nine ers. Why they're number

164
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: five is they also might have been the league's best

165
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: team for most of last season, but they weren't. You know,

166
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: the quarterback situation is still.

167
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: The old line scares me too, and the old line

168
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: is much worse than it was ere Yeah, I mean

169
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: I think Trent Williams the best line in the league.

170
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: I think he's thirty eight and there's four slappies next

171
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: to him, right right, right, Yeah, So I heard this

172
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: the other day.

173
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 2: If you look at the Shanahan Dolphin offense, they get

174
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 2: quarterbacks hurt. Yeah, I mean, I think collectively they used

175
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 2: eight quarterbacks.

176
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: There's a lot of misdirection and things of that, and

177
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: you're leaving your quarterback on an island, right.

178
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 2: I mean they both have star left tackles that they

179
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 2: leave alone all the time, and they put five guys

180
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 2: out in routes all the time. Maybe it's not Tua's

181
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: injury prone and you know these are Jimmy g Maybe

182
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 2: you're just getting them killed, right, Yeah, you know what

183
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 2: I mean, they get boots and stuff. The quarterbacks are

184
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: gonna get hit. Yeah. I think they used eight quarterbacks

185
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 2: between those two teams last year.

186
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: Number four is the Bills. Why they're number four. They

187
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: might have been the league's best team last season.

188
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they might have been. Don't divisions far more? I

189
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 2: mean I think I'll pick them to win the division probably,

190
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 2: you know, but we'll have those coming up here in

191
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 2: the next couple of weeks. I might have them lower

192
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 2: on the list just because division is tough, tough road,

193
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 2: right right, Not that I think they're a lesser team

194
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: than maybe the Ravens. I don't think they're probably a

195
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: playoff team though, in.

196
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: The so I would imagine top seven. Yeah, you know,

197
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: number three. The Dallas Cowboys agreed. Why they're number three.

198
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 1: They have a high floor.

199
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 2: So the football Outsiders book is coming out soon, like

200
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 2: later this week or whatever, and I heard Aaron Shottz

201
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: talking about it. It's on Football Siders anymore. But anyway,

202
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: he said, the Cowboys. We're so in on the Cowboys.

203
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 2: I can hardly believe it. You know, all the metrics

204
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 2: and stuff. And that's where Barney, I've heard this on

205
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 2: hundred times though about them. I think the owner ship

206
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 2: medals and causes problems. Yeah.

207
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: I also think, well, Mike McCarthy going back to calling

208
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: the plays, I don't know is a great idea.

209
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 2: I don't either, But I like the football. I like

210
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 2: the roster.

211
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, number two, the Philadelphia Eagles. Yeah, why they're number two?

212
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: It's a long way from the top.

213
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: Well, the Chiefs have to be one, of course, we

214
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 2: know that. And the Chiefs win their division every year.

215
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 2: They win five or six games in their division every year.

216
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: But I might have the Eagles one just because the

217
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 2: NFC is easier. But what if Mahome stubs a toe,

218
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like, if Hurts hurts. I

219
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: don't think Mariota is any good, to be honest with you,

220
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: But if Hurts misses two months, I think they're still

221
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 2: a playoff team because the NFC's right, they're just not

222
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: as reliant on two guys. Three guys Chris Jones, Kelsey

223
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: Mahome Chris Jones still don't re signed yet, by the way,

224
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 2: I know, still not in camp. But if they lose

225
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 2: one of them for the year, they're not number one anymore.

226
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 2: You know, lose one for a couple months, and number

227
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 2: one is the Chiefs. And the reason why they're number

228
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: one is they're the Chiefs there. I mean, they've they've

229
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 2: gotten the point where they're like the Patriots of you know, yeah,

230
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 2: last generation. I mean, how do you fight the consistency?

231
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: You can't looking at this so that you know there

232
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: are three NFC teams at the bottom of this, right.

233
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 2: As you said, New York, Tampa's last.

234
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: As I mentioned last week in one of the shows,

235
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: three in the last four years, there have been seven

236
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 1: new teams in the playoffs.

237
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 2: Right.

238
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: The year that there weren't seven, there were five, right,

239
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: So recent history, recent history tells you that there's probably

240
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: at least six teams that are new in the playoffs

241
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: this year.

242
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 2: You're not all going to be in the NFC. It's

243
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 2: usually like forty yeah, something like that. Well, the last

244
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 2: last year was fifty two years ago. You know, the

245
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: year before that it was over fifty percent. So half

246
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 2: of the teams we just mentioned, we're saying, I don't know,

247
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 2: six of the teams we mentioned aren't gonna make it, right,

248
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: Tampa's easy Giants. Nobody would be shocked. I mean the

249
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 2: ones the bottom aren't shocking. But one of the I

250
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: mean two in the top five or two in the

251
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 2: top six probably won't.

252
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: Go, or you know, a couple of those top ten

253
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: teams aren't gonna go. You know, that's just the reality

254
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: of how the NFL goes.

255
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, I'm trying to think. I think what I what.

256
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: I remember reading in that stat pack is I think

257
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: every year since two thousand there's been at least five

258
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: new teams in the playoffs.

259
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 2: Not surprising, right, I mean, like no one's on the

260
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 2: Giants coming out of the field has expanded, so that

261
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 2: you've added two more teams to it to give you

262
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: two more potential. That won't make it real quick. I

263
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 2: just want to do this super fast, so go from

264
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 2: fourteen up one year ago. No would't have been shocked

265
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: that the Tampa Bay Box went to the playoffs. They

266
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 2: still would Brady. They were right right now? Okay, so

267
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 2: team ahead of them. Nobody thought that.

268
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: Nobody thought the Giants were a playoffs right. The Vikings,

269
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: well they were.

270
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 2: They were an eight and eight ish maybe, you know, maybe,

271
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,079
Speaker 2: but Aaron Rodgers was in that division. Most people in

272
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 2: the Packers, the Dolphins, they were kind of mediocre to

273
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: I'd say, But this time made the trade for two

274
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 2: like they had gone all in, went for Tyreek. Yeah right, Tyreek,

275
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, Okay. Ten was Baltimore, they're always in it.

276
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, eleven, I'm sorry. Nine was the Chargers. People thought

277
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: they were picked.

278
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were high picked. That was not shocking, although

279
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 2: a lot of people were picking Denver who didn't.

280
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: Go Seattle wasn't No, there was nothing expected from Seattle.

281
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 2: I was wrong. I thought they were a better chance

282
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 2: of getting a top five pick. Drew Locke might have

283
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: been starting at this point last year.

284
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: A year ago, at this time, Jacksonville was coming off

285
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 1: and having back miserable back to back first pick overall picks, and.

286
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 2: Tennessee looked like a much better team than Jacksonville. At

287
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 2: this point last year, the Bengals were the Bengals, sure

288
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 2: the top the top five Niners, Bill Bills and the

289
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 2: picks that, yeah, Eagles weren't as certain as you know,

290
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 2: it's easy to say we were picking them to win

291
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: the division. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and Dallas was pretty good.

292
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 2: But so maybe that wasn't the best example. But most

293
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 2: given years, if you remember what the narrative was one

294
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: year before, things change ridiculously quickly.

295
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: You know they're up and fast in the NFL. We're

296
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: gonna take another break. He is Matt Williamson. I am

297
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: Dale Lolly. We are alive from Steelers' training camp here

298
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: on the campus of Saint Vincent College, where the Steelers

299
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: wrapped up their sixth training camp practice a little bit ago. Guys,

300
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: we're down working on the field now, fixing things back up.

301
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 2: They do an excellent job, they really do. They put

302
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 2: a lot of time and effort into it. They really do.

303
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, just going through it like with a fine tooth

304
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 1: comb here, making sure every little divid is is in

305
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: good shaping. Yes, they don't want to have an injury

306
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: out there a lot of real estate to do that.

307
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 2: Well. Absolutely, two fields that really three fields that.

308
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: They use yourself, good work by them. We're gonna take

309
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,440

Speaker 1: as well, So lots of going on out here at

328
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: Steelers training camp practice. Of course, the Steelers making a

329
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 1: couple of signings today. They signed safety Trent and Thompson

330
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: and cornerback Isaiah Dunn and placed rookie cornerback Corey Trice Junior,

331
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: the seventh round draft pick, goes onto a reserve injured list.

332
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: He was injured in practice on Tuesday with Mike Tomlins

333
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: said that was a serious knee injury, and then they

334
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: also waved injured running back Alfonso Graham.

335
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: The secondary was getting a little thin. Yeah, I don't

336
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 2: know anything about the two guys they signed, but we'll

337
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 2: see what they're gonna get. An opportunity safety and corner

338
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 2: little thin right now.

339
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 1: Thompson played at San Diego State. He was with the

340
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: Giants as an undrafted rookie last year. He spent most

341
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two season on the Giants practice squad,

342
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: playing in one game.

343
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 2: Fifty seven career games at San Diego State. Wow, that's

344
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 2: a lot to go off. Yeah, starting thirty one. Is

345
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 2: he the safety of the corner? He was the safety,

346
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 2: So we'll see. Yeah. Done. Is from Morgan State.

347
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: He signed with the Jets as an undrafted rookie following

348
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty one draft. He played in twelve games

349
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: for the Jets. Also spent time with the Seahawks. He

350
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: dressed five games for them before an injury ended his

351
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two season.

352
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 2: So I wonder with him again, I don't know anying

353
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: about him. I just know how this works. You said

354
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 2: he played in twelve games with the Jets. You would

355
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: think you'd be in a camp by now, but his

356
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,160
Speaker 2: he was in and got injured. So maybe you're getting

357
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 2: a better commodity there just because he's finally healthy. Wasn't

358
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 2: healthy until last week or whatever. Yeah, so we'll see,

359
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 2: they'll get it. They'll get an opportunity here. Man.

360
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: It's early, early enough in camp where guys who come

361
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: in at this point so they'll look, yeah, still have

362
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: a chance to get.

363
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 2: A good solid look.

364
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: And so those guys that you know, they start adding

365
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: guys if they have an injury in this second preseason game,

366
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: right right, And those are guys that usually have been

367
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: kicking around somebody else's camp and they get released.

368
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 2: And I mean, who knows what will happen between now

369
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 2: and that kickoff, but I would bet both those players

370
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 2: play in the preseason for play and half.

371
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: They signed the two running backs Greg Bell and John Lovett,

372
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: uh yesterday and they were immediately in there on on

373
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: set on the backs on backers.

374
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, there's into it. There's not, nor should you

375
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 2: be if those guys like I was, won every opportunity

376
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 2: I can. Like I said, it's such a brutal business.

377
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 2: If you're those players, you know it's tough to get

378
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 2: a shot. It really is helped us hardening, is it?

379
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,400
Speaker 2: When you know, all the camps open and you don't

380
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 2: have a spot. Oh, it's gonna be awful. And then

381
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 2: week goes by and phone rang at least so the.

382
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: Phones ring it. You know, teams are probably checking on

383
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: all you're available.

384
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: Hey, what's it? What's your situation that your agent's getting calls? Yeah,

385
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: it's just when's it gonna happen? When's it gonna happen?

386
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 2: A big thing? And then unfortunately someone will sign Dalvin

387
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 2: Cook and that guy gets somebody else, you know what

388
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 2: I mean, right.

389
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of surprised that, like guys like Ezekiel Elliott,

390
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook haven't signed yet.

391
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 2: A little fournette to another one. Yeah, some veteran backs

392
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 2: out there. Kareem Hunt still hasn't. Yeah, he's out there.

393
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: I don't know that anyone will. I mean, the Chiefs

394
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 2: used to take some liberties with guys that have off

395
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 2: the field stuff. The Browns absolutely do. And now he's

396
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 2: gotten older and isn't quite what he used to be.

397
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 2: His ship I had some issues then with while he

398
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 2: was there too, right, I say his ship may have sailed,

399
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 2: you know, like I've been calling Zeke or Fournette or

400
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 2: certainly Cook before him. Yeah, I mean, how would you

401
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: rank those guys? Cooks a distant one, But I don't

402
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 2: think he's what he used to be four nets two. Yeah,

403
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: I think I think Zeke's got very little left, to

404
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 2: be honest with you. I think he'll be a goal

405
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 2: line back, good locker room guy because of who they

406
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 2: the people are. Yeah. Yeah, Zeke's a really good teammates,

407
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 2: you know, Mentor and Hunt might be a fine person.

408
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, but he's got in trouble. I mean

409
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 2: several times, several times. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, so a

410
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 2: lot of owners are gonna be like no, and I

411
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 2: get that, Yeah, absolutely, But he certainly enough strikes working

412
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 2: against him.

413
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: Matt's final takeaways from practice today.

414
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 2: I almost interrupted you, as I often do. You know

415
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 2: this is the sixth practice. Part of me thinks we

416
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 2: just got here. Part of me is like I feel

417
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: like I've been here a month. Imagine if you're the players. Yeah, right, exactly,

418
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 2: Like I mean, maybe a cup of coffee at the dinner,

419
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 2: them playing on, I'll be like, oh, I feel like

420
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 2: I just got here. Let's go. I'm ready to do it.

421
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 2: After a third hour radio, it's like, man, like we've

422
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 2: been here a while. I'm pretty beating up, you know,

423
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 2: and I'm not doing anything. I'm sitting there in air

424
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 2: conditioning watching guys tend the field. Yeah, but I'm sure

425
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:16,719
Speaker 2: the players are having a lot of the same thoughts.

426
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I talked to I mentioned that the

427
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 1: Broderck Jones today and I said, hey, how's you know

428
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: you're taking first team reps?

429
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 2: Some you're taking all the second team reps. Sure you

430
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 2: guys stay after root guys by the coach, weren't anyone.

431
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys stay after practice every day and

432
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,360
Speaker 1: work as a group as the offensive lineman.

433
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 2: You know, you got walkthroughs in the morning. You got

434
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 2: all this stuff going on. I'm sure they still lift

435
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 2: when they're here some of that stuff. Right, Are you

436
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 2: feeling this yet? He goes, well, ask me next week. Okay,

437
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 2: we just got in there, we just started hitting. Yeah,

438
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 2: I guess that has something to do with it too.

439
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 2: You had a little bit of a long weekend and

440
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 2: now you're actually hitting and how I got to stop

441
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 2: this Highsmith dude is pretty good, you know, right right?

442
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: So my teammates, Yeah, and that's when you start seeing

443
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 1: I start getting a little tired of each other. Like

444
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: we saw a little bit of a scrimmish, a little

445
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:09,439
Speaker 1: bit in the field to there today, nothing major? Do

446
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: you see the the Kevin Stefanski the Browns were training

447
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: down in West Virginia and they had a bunch of

448
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: fights and Kevin Stefanski made the whole team.

449
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 2: Run really yeah, punishment, Okay, I don't know how to

450
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 2: take that. I mean, I guess you'd have to be there.

451
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 2: Do you do you like the aggression or are they

452
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 2: just not doing what you're told? Right?

453
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: You know, I'm sure he said several today, guys, let's

454
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 1: knock it off. And it keeps happening, and it keeps happening, Like,

455
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: guys aren't listening.

456
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 2: Here, and maybe you're not getting better because of it.

457
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 2: You know, you're letting your emotions get in the way

458
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 2: and you're not you know, doing your assignments. You're not

459
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 2: listening to coaching all your works or distractions that you

460
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 2: don't need. Yeah, right right, and then they all go

461
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 2: to the cafeteria and if you're yellowing each other there

462
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,119
