I have 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 4: written down eighth three, twenty five in Cleveland for Tom 39 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 4: Brady's the TV. 40 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 5: Broadcast. 41 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, sow, what are we feeling about the Cleveland Browns. 42 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 8: So the first thought that popped in mind, and I'm 43 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 8: sure it did for a lot of others, is if 44 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 8: Tyler Guiden wins this left tackle starting job, his assignment 45 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 8: is the reigning defensive player of the year, Miles Garrett hold. 46 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: On the rating. 47 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 6: There you go, there you go defending. 48 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, so that's gonna be, man, that's gonna be a 49 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 8: welcome to the NFL moment for him. But I think 50 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 8: on both sides of the ball, it's gonna be a 51 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,119 Speaker 8: challenge opportunity for a Marii Cooper to you know, maybe 52 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 8: get get a good game in on the Cowboys as 53 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 8: well on his home turf. And I think it's gonna 54 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 8: be an interesting start to the year. It's interesting that 55 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 8: they don't start on Sunday night, so they'll be able 56 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 8: to get back in a relatively you know, early time 57 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 8: than they are used to in early September. But yeah, 58 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 8: Cleveland and then tonight, we know the full schedule. Really 59 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 8: excited about, uh seeing seeing what trips and what college 60 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 8: football trips we can playing around these games and stuff 61 00:02:59,200 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 8: like that. 62 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 6: But it's gonna be fun private. 63 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 7: This is a question that helps them is the fact 64 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 7: that it's early in the year against Cleveland, because you 65 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 7: could easily have that be a December game and it 66 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 7: could be really cold outside. And so anytime when series 67 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 7: of things like we already know all the teams that 68 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 7: they're playing, yeah they're playing at home, who they're playing 69 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 7: on the road, So it just had those road teams 70 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 7: you're just looking at as Okay, which ones of these 71 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 7: could be the potential bad weather games? You know, And 72 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 7: it wouldn't surprise me if they closed the season at Philly. 73 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 7: You know, it's that's always a possibility. But I just 74 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 7: every year when the schedule comes out, and I know 75 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 7: the players and front office they do the same thing. 76 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 7: They look at what's what's the weather possibility, So they 77 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 7: get Cleveland to kick off the season in Cleveland will 78 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 7: probably be decent weather like, that's a win for the Cowboys. 79 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 5: And what was the last time we opened a season 80 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 5: against an AFC team? It's been a while, right. 81 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 6: The Jets against an AFC team. Let me do some 82 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 6: research talk on it. 83 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 7: No, it's probably Jets, maybe eleven. 84 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 5: I mean, I probably should have looked this. 85 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: I'm not historian. 86 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 5: You know a thing or two about a thing or two. 87 00:03:58,360 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 5: It's always the Giants. 88 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: So it's usually the Giants. Cleveland's a tough drawing a 89 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: week one tough draw. It's a tough draw. You'll find 90 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: out a lot about your team that week. 91 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 5: Deshaun Watson starting. 92 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, Deshaun Watson would definitely be starting. He 93 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: has guaranteed money. He's definitely gonna be out there. But 94 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 1: I mean their their defense is ridonculous as everybody knows, right, 95 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: I mean. 96 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 5: Cut them through the whole season basically. 97 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely so. I mean that's in terms of a 98 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: lot of the Cupid shuffle that we have going on 99 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: offensive line right now. You just alluded to. Obviously Tyler 100 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: guiding on the left side. That whole front is solid 101 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: for for Cleveland, and they've gotten stronger somehow, some way 102 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: over the off season. So it's gonna be interesting. I'll 103 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: look forward to it. Obviously, there's a long way to 104 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: go between now you got OTA's got training camp. You 105 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: guys can get a lot better. But that's gonna be 106 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: one heck of a test if you want to know 107 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: exactly where you stand with your offensive line at the 108 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: beginning of the season. Well, there's no better team than 109 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: than the Cleveland Browns. 110 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, at jetson eleven, and before that it was out 111 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 8: the Browns and eight. 112 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 5: So okay, all right. I was there for that one, 113 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 5: and then the Jacksonville is somewhere in there. Maybe right 114 00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 5: before that. 115 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: That shoulder popped up on a blocking play for Marian Barber. 116 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: I remember that. Really I was blocking from Marion. He 117 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: was running. You don't want to get Mary to run 118 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: up your back. That's just not what you want. So 119 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: I'm looking over my shoulder and I want to go 120 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: chuck the guy, you know. As soon as Marian passed me, 121 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: I like to chuck him in. My shoulder just slips out. 122 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: Oh that was awesome. 123 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 5: That was just a flesh wound ry. 124 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: I just did a little spin, movie popped back in. 125 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: I kept going. 126 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 6: Won the game though, Let's go, let's go. 127 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 4: Well, any how do you guys feel about Tom Brady? 128 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 4: Tom Brady, we just talked about him last week with 129 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 4: the roast, but like, it's his inaugural broadcast with Fox, 130 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 4: and he also brought up the quote that he had 131 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 4: was is Dak. 132 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 5: Finally going to come through? 133 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 4: And it kind of he let it slip out during 134 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 4: the announcement of his first game with Michael Strahan. 135 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 5: I don't know, man, like a little more respect on 136 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 5: Dak's name. Granted that was his last game. 137 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 8: Say, granted that he was the one that you know, 138 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 8: knocked him out of the playoffs for the final time. 139 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 8: But yeah, I think the broadcasting aspect of Tom Brady's 140 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 8: career is going to be fairly interesting. It's going to 141 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 8: be heavily followed obviously. I mean we've seen Romo do it. 142 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 8: We saw wit and try and do it for a 143 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 8: year or two with Monday Night Football, I mean former players, 144 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 8: and it just kind of makes sense for Tom Brady 145 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 8: to step into this role. Granted, I really liked what 146 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 8: Greg Olsen did on the Fox broadcast. I know a 147 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 8: lot of people feel differently, but Kevin Burkhard and Tom Brady, 148 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 8: I think that'll end up being a really good duo. 149 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 8: I'm curious to see where Greg lands though. 150 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 7: I think Tom Brady's got a pretty good sense of humor. 151 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 7: I think the roast showed that. I thought that comment 152 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 7: about Dak was a little It carried over from the 153 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 7: roast right Darry Rose liked it the way he did it. 154 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 7: But I'll say this, and I don't know how many 155 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 7: people realize this, but when you're around like a superstar, okay, 156 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 7: like a Tom Brady, heck, like even covering this team, 157 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 7: you know, being around let's say Romo or whoever you are, 158 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 7: whether it's media, fans, whatever, there is just this part 159 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 7: of you that whenever you say something like, let's we're 160 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 7: gonna let's say we rate jokes, like the best joke 161 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 7: Dave Chappelle ever told, We're gonna say is the ten 162 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 7: of the ten.

When you're that famous and 165 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 7: you're that you know, polarizing, and that when people are 166 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 7: around you and you tell a joke that's a two, 167 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 7: they laugh like it's a seven.

I'm interested to see how much 196 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 7: he tries to weave that into I think you'll find there. 197 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: I think the big the greatest critical as how people 198 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: how people are going to be critical in regards to 199 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: his broadcast is going to be his his acceptance in 200 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: his criticism of other players, because for the longest, him 201 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick, and you're starting to see them show. They're 202 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: obviously their personalities now now that they're outside of the game. 203 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: For the longest, they were the gold standard in terms 204 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: of not saying anything about anybody right or just given 205 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: high actlet Oh they're they're awesome, they're great, just kind 206 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: of bsing their way through the through the press conferences. 207 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: But now as an analyst, he's going to have to 208 00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: be critical. And it's like, okay, well, how critical was 209 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: he going to be? What is Tom Brady's standard for 210 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: a people that don't know him obviously? Right? What is 211 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's standard for greatness? Is that a great play? 212 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: Is that a bad pass? Is that a bad lowcation? 213 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 9: Like? 214 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: How critical is he really going to be because his 215 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: standard is so high? Is he going to try to 216 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: hold everybody to that? Or is he going to give 217 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, give people flowers when they 218 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: actually do things that are great. So that's what I'm 219 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: curious to see. I think that's where people are going 220 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: to be most analytical about his endless role. 221 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 7: And he doesn't even know how that's going to be 222 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 7: yet nobody does. Because this is what's going to happen. 223 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 7: He will either start out not doing very much of that, 224 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 7: and you'll hear the backlash of come on, Tom, you 225 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 7: got to give us more than that. You're getting thirty 226 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 7: some million dollars a year when anymore? Or then the 227 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 7: other thing that's gonna happen is he's going to say 228 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 7: something about a play and it's gonna seem like a 229 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 7: throwaway comment, but that's going to lead to like headlines 230 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 7: the next day, like look at what he said about 231 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 7: Baker Mayfield, Look what he said about whatever. And then 232 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 7: he's gonna have to respond to that, and I mean 233 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 7: not respond directly to that, but the way he does 234 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 7: broadcast it will impact you because there are certain things 235 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 7: that some people just they do not want to be 236 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 7: the person that's constantly stirring up stuff. But you can 237 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 7: be put in that position where you're just like, wow, 238 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 7: I didn't even think that was that big of a deal, 239 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 7: and that's getting headlines the next day. I mean, it's 240 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 7: Tom Brady. It's the goat that he can say one 241 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 7: little thing and that could be the biggest storyline about 242 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 7: that game the very next day. 243 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 5: This is true. I kind of want to see the 244 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 5: train wreck. I want to like it just do bits, 245 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 5: you know what I mean. 246 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 7: Like it's like this guy sucks or whatever. 247 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 5: And then I don't know, I think that would be fun. 248 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 4: But uh, overall, I think tom Brady's gonna be safe 249 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 4: enough enough. I think like, like we talked about it. 250 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 4: He's kind of coming off the roast. Yeah, so maybe 251 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 4: he has a little, you know, a little spring in 252 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 4: his step when it comes to like doing bits. 253 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 7: One other thing I'm gonna add on that is that 254 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 7: something he's gonna do that's gonna bother me because he's 255 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 7: already started doing a little bit, is he's going to 256 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 7: talk about how and he's gonna make it seem like 257 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 7: he played in like the seventies with how physical the 258 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 7: game was and how just oh, you know, how the 259 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 7: game is officiated now it's so soft, le Tom. You 260 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 7: played as long as you did because the officials really 261 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 7: helped you out. So let's just you're not the guy 262 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 7: all this out. He's already done it a little bit. 263 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 7: That guy. I'm interested to see how it comes in 264 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 7: games when there's certain calls it stuff. In my day, 265 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 7: this wouldn't have had time. You didn't play in that day, 266 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 7: like you're not, and the rules helped you. You're not 267 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 7: playing into your forties mid forties if the rules didn't 268 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 7: help you. So you're not gonna be the guy that's 269 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 7: gonna be calling this stuff out like you're Ed Reid. 270 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: This is fair, that's fair, all right, boys, rookie minicamp 271 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 4: happened this past weekend. 272 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 5: Let's kind of get into that. 273 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 4: Can we kind of explain what the rookie minicamp looks 274 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 4: like to our. 275 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 8: I'm I'm trying to remember who said it to me 276 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 8: this past week, and I think it may have been 277 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 8: toadd Archer, But the underwear Olympics is basically the best 278 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 8: way to explain it. But yeah, I mean, they get 279 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 8: these guys in the building, they signed their they signed 280 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 8: their contracts, and they get out on the field and 281 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 8: basically just go through a lot of install They go 282 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 8: through to walk throughs on Friday, and then one actual 283 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 8: practice on Saturday. It's not padded or anything, but you know, 284 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 8: they'll they'll run some plays and they'll get some routes 285 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 8: on air and things of that nature. But for for 286 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 8: this specific draft draft class, it was an opportunity to 287 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 8: see Cooper Bebe snapped the ball for the first few times. 288 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 1: It was an. 289 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 8: Opportunity to see Tyler Geidon and his size and how 290 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 8: they compares to some of the other rookies or some 291 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 8: of the twenty twenty three undrafted free agents that they 292 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 8: brought in on the offensive line as well, just to 293 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 8: kind of compare. And then on the defensive side of 294 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 8: the ball, you could see guys like Marshawn neland Kayln Carson, 295 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 8: Maris Luifowl just to kind of see them in action, 296 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 8: see what their body type looks like, see how they 297 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 8: respond to coaching. It was our first opportunity to see 298 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 8: Mike Zimmer on the field coaching some coaching some players, 299 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 8: so seeing that dynamic was definitely interesting. But that's basically 300 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 8: what rookie mini camp is in a nutshell, but can't 301 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 8: really pull a whole lot out of it on the field, 302 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 8: but it's a really good opportunity to see initial impressions 303 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 8: of what they are off the field. We were able 304 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 8: to talk to all the rookies, a couple of the 305 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 8: undrafted guys, so so far, I mean, it's a pretty 306 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 8: solid class from a media availability standpoint, which I know 307 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 8: me and John are very very happy about. 308 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 6: But other than that, that's those are my main takeaways. 309 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 7: I like being an AX and seeing the all the 310 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 7: other writers that cover other teams talk about like these 311 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 7: big takeaways that they have from and I just laughed 312 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 7: because there's just not big takeaways to be taken from. 313 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 7: I'm telling you. I don't care who, I don't care 314 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 7: how long you played in the league, Tom Brady to 315 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 7: Bill Belichick, whatever, not even comparing it to this one, 316 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 7: but I'll keep it somewhat relevant. There's nothing that happened 317 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 7: during rookie orientation, Roocky Mini Caamp, during Michael Parson's rookie 318 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 7: year that you had been like, whoa, everybody, just buckle up, 319 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 7: we might have the best defensive player in football, right yo. 320 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 7: There just isn't enough to see from there, you know. 321 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 7: We I remember watching some of that and you were like, oh, 322 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 7: it looks like he's gonna you know, line it up 323 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 7: a little bit off the edge and stuff like that, 324 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 7: so you can take up, like to your point, the 325 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 7: lining up in different spots, like it was good to see, like, Okay, well, 326 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 7: Cooper BB's clearly at center. You know, we think that's 327 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 7: going to be the case, but to actually see it, 328 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 7: you know, Tyler Guitton's at left tackle, things like that. 329 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 7: But in terms of like the work that a player 330 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 7: is doing and projecting and what they can be and 331 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 7: I know it's bigger. Again, this is just following other 332 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 7: teams and other teams writers on X It's it's definitely 333 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 7: a bigger thing to have these big takeaways off of 334 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 7: rookie Minnie Camp. If you if your team drafted a 335 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 7: quarterback high, because all eyes are on that quarterback, you know, 336 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 7: and what they look like in their drills and stuff 337 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 7: like that. So and to be honest with you, even here, 338 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 7: if let's say there was I'm kind of you know, 339 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 7: stipulation where Trey Lance could have been out there because 340 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 7: he didn't play last year or something like that, all 341 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 7: the takeawys would have been like, what did Trey Lance 342 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 7: look like throwing blah blah blah blah. And they're not 343 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 7: in paths or anything. So all it is is just 344 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 7: kind of trying to be like, hey, we're out there, 345 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 7: so this is what I saw. But I mean, even 346 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 7: if you talk to former players that when they're out 347 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 7: there like you see, I mean, it's just it's not 348 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 7: it's it's very it's designed to, hey, this is the 349 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 7: way we run practice, get ready for this, so when 350 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 7: we are practicing that you're not doing the wrong thing 351 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 7: that we needed to keep going when practice actually starts. 352 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 7: But it's also designed like don't get hurt out here. 353 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 4: It's a great way to look at conditioning. Too and 354 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 4: see how these players are developing. And I don't think 355 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 4: we're going to necessarily answer the question is you know, 356 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 4: Maricelulfowl like ready to start basically with a rookie minicamp, Well, 357 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 4: what was your kind of experience with mini camps in general? 358 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: Man? I mean rookie mini camps is what they just explained. 359 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: It's I mean, as you're walking around in draws, yeah, 360 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: and you're really seeing, you know, how in shape guys 361 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: are a conditioning aspect. That's the real takeaway that you 362 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 1: can have. If there is any takeaway outside of alignment 363 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: and assignments, it's just you know, how condition are these guys. 364 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: There's guys that come into Ricky minnicamp and they are 365 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: out of shape and they got to get on it. 366 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: Usually it's somebody that's upfront or second level guy. But 367 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: you know, that's really the takeaway. Your coaches are able 368 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: to analyze where they're at. They get with the dietitians, 369 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: they find out if there's anything that they need to 370 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: do in the regards in terms of their new their 371 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: health to get bigger or to drop some weight. You know, 372 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: they find out exactly where they want them at size wise. 373 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: For training camp. That's when usually the time where the 374 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: strength conditioning staff is trying to analyze that with the 375 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: dietitian to find out, Okay, hey, coaches, where do you 376 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: guys want these guys at weight wise? You I know 377 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: when I came in, I was like two twenty five 378 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: when I when I came in the draft, and I 379 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: came in obviously still recovering from my surgery. But from 380 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: that they were like, okay, we want you to come 381 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: to training camp at two o seven. So by the 382 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: time we finish up with Ricky minnicamp OTA's and all 383 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: those things, it was like, okay, this is your report weight. 384 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: So they're able to tell some of those things just 385 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: to put you in the best position possible once training 386 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: camp starts. But that's all it is. There's not much 387 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: outside of that. 388 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 4: All right, boys, let's take our first break. When we 389 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 4: come back, we have a lot lots more to get into.

Mike McCarthy 467 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,439 Speaker 4: talked about He was basically you know, uh, he had 468 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 4: press conference before first day of mini camp and then 469 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 4: the before it. 470 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 6: Was at the end of the first day, in the 471 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 6: beginning of the second day. 472 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 4: Thank you, talking about culture change and how every season 473 00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 4: that culture changes a bit. 474 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 5: Any updates from Mike McCarthy. 475 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 4: I mean, of course there's not a lot to say 476 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 4: about players individually when it comes out, you know, when 477 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 4: it comes to these mini camps, as we discussed, but 478 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 4: any kind of tidbits that you want to speak on, you. 479 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 7: Know what, I thought it was kind of interesting. I 480 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 7: don't know if you thought this was a big deal 481 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 7: when he said it or not. But so when Mike 482 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 7: McCarthy took over offensive play calling, he adjusted to the 483 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 7: offensive language that was already in place under Kellen Moore 484 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 7: and before, because hey, let's keep this this is what 485 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 7: these guys are used to. You know, Dak's beending this offense. 486 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 7: Let's keep the language. What they're used to. So Mike 487 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 7: McCarthy spent that off season adjusting to what the Cowboys 488 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 7: offensive language was. But McCarthy said that on defense, the 489 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 7: defense will be adjusting to the way Mike Zimmer's languages, 490 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 7: so just because he's called stuff a certain way for 491 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 7: a long period of time and so because of that, 492 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 7: I thought that was kind of interesting. Just because you 493 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 7: only have one offseason and it's not very long, and 494 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 7: you're on a one year contract, you know, you have 495 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 7: to have results immediately on defense to you know. It's 496 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 7: I just it's different when you have two or three 497 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 7: years left on your contract. You can like kind of 498 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 7: slowly implement some things in and maybe not, but you 499 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 7: have to kind of throw the kitchen sink at this thing. 500 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 7: You need this thing to be successful, Uh, right away 501 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 7: from your time playing. How big of a difference do 502 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 7: you think that is when having an off season have 503 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 7: to learn a different language. 504 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's it's one heck of an adjustment, 505 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: which is why OTAs is important. You need that time 506 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 1: to get acclimated, You need that time to be with 507 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: your coaching staff to get feedback, to get instant feedback, 508 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: to not only go and study at your house and study, 509 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,239 Speaker 1: you know, here watch film, but also to come and 510 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: do it. There's one thing to read and look at pictures. 511 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: It's another thing to come in and line up when 512 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: somebody says it in a huddle. So it's very important 513 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: that from that stands. I just had a random question 514 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 1: pop up in my head. Who do you guys think 515 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: is the biggest advocate of change of culture change? Players 516 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: or coaches. 517 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 7: From last year to this year? 518 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: Just in general? 519 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 7: Oh, just in general, not this team specifically. 520 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 4: I think it has to be coaches, right, It has 521 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 4: to be coaches only because players have been dealing with 522 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 4: culture change their whole career when it comes to high 523 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 4: school college. You're looking at me and I'm like, you're 524 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 4: looking at me like. 525 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 6: Hey, why not play? 526 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: No? 527 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 5: No, no, no, I don't agree, you go ahead. 528 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: I don't disagree. I just think that there's sometimes when 529 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: you add certain personnelity to your team, it changes the 530 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: dynamic and possibly the culture as well. You know, I like, 531 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: you think about adding a Mica, did he change a culture? 532 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: Or did Dan Quinn change a culture? You think about 533 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, adding all this beef on the offensive line, Now, 534 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: does that change the culture and how you would how 535 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: you approach the running game. Do you have a nastiness 536 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 1: that's and that's now there that you didn't have last year? Like, 537 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: I just think about it. You know, I agree on 538 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: both ends. I just want to know where you guys 539 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: stood on it. 540 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 5: It's a mix, right, Yeah. 541 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 7: What I think I was gonna say with the language 542 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 7: on the defense real quick is I also think a 543 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 7: factor in this McCarthy didn't say this, but it's that 544 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 7: the guy calling all of this on the field on 545 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 7: Sundays will be Eric Kendrick, who obviously is going to 546 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 7: be used to Mike Zimmer's language. So I think maybe 547 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 7: that factors in a little bit too. But I couldn't 548 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 7: be wrong, and I think. 549 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 8: Eric Kendricks could kind of be Mike Zimmer's filter as well. 550 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 8: As far as an intensity standpoint, I think that's gonna 551 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 8: be really good for the delator, Yeah, exactly, the anger translator. 552 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 6: I think. 553 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 8: I think this culture change under Zimmer is going to 554 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 8: be really good for that defensive side of the ball. 555 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 8: And not to say that the culture under Quinn was bad, 556 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 8: because I think it was pretty strong and you ask 557 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 8: anybody in that room, they'll say the same thing. Quinn 558 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 8: is very much a player's coach, and Zimmer more so 559 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 8: has a high standard and it's a military way of 560 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 8: going about things. 561 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,440 Speaker 6: And you see some of the assistants that he brought 562 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 6: in as well. 563 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 8: We got our first opportunity to talk to defensive line 564 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 8: coach Jeff's Scanina yesterday and then you talk about intensity, 565 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 8: that guy is looks like Intensity looks like Ivan Drago. 566 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 6: I mean, he's he walks up with just like this 567 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 6: swoll you know, stance. 568 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 8: And he was kind of mouthing with the media a 569 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 8: little bit before he actually got on camera a little 570 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 8: bit and it was everybody's like, Okay, we gotta we 571 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 8: gotta take this a little bit easy. And we go 572 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 8: into the availability and I had asked him about, you know, 573 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 8: what's the dynamic between him and Greg Ellis, assistant defensive 574 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 8: line coach, and he's like, well, you know, I'm more 575 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 8: of the loose cannon. 576 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 6: He's more of the mild manner guy. I'm the raging lunatic. 577 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 8: He said that I'm the raging lunatic and he's more 578 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 8: of the you know, communicator on that sense. And I 579 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 8: was like, okay, have you had a moment yet with 580 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 8: a player where you've kind of let that loose cannon 581 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 8: go a little bit. He's like, yes, every day, every 582 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 8: five minutes. And I was like, what bothers you the most? 583 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 8: He says, everything bothers me. So he's you can tell 584 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 8: he's there, you know, as far as intensity goes. And man, 585 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 8: I had posted that clip on Twitter last night and 586 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,479 Speaker 8: one year Thomas Quote tweeted it and said that it's 587 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 8: funny he walks into meetings every day and sees it. 588 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 6: A g I Joe character is coaching the defensive line. 589 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 5: So that's awesome. 590 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 8: I think that kind of speaks though, to circle back 591 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 8: to my original point, it speaks back to I think 592 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 8: the culture changed that the defensive staff is bringing to 593 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 8: that side of the ball. I think it's gonna be 594 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 8: really good for that side of the ball. They need 595 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 8: to get more physical, obviously, they need to get bigger. 596 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 8: That's that's not something that necessarily changes with culture. But 597 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 8: I think physicality can change with culture. I think discipline, 598 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,239 Speaker 8: as far as penalties lining up off sides, that can 599 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,199 Speaker 8: change with culture. So I'm very interested to see what 600 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 8: that defensive product looks like next year. 601 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm worried in the same sense, right, So First 602 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: of all, I think it's hilarious. Go ahead, yeah, because 603 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: Ge first of all is like the complete opposite. He 604 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: is like a walking Jedi, right. He just so calm, 605 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: so z in, very just emotionally intelligent, right, and he's 606 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: able to convey the you know, communication wise to players 607 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: is awesome. That's gonna be good in terms of offsetting 608 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 1: the D line. Coach, I am worried from the perspective 609 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: of creativity our guys as a player. Let me just 610 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: back up, as a player. When you have structure, but 611 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: that structure allows for you to create, you're able to 612 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: be your true self. I think that's what dan Quinn provided. 613 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,880 Speaker 1: Dan Quinn provided a structure, but with underneath that structure 614 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 1: it was like, Hey, Mike, do you right. I'm gonna 615 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: put you over here. I don't care how you get there, 616 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 1: just get there. I wonder if these guys are going 617 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 1: to have that same freedom under Zimmer And I say 618 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 1: that because Josh, you're supposed to get from point A 619 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 1: to point B, like I need you to go up 620 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: the outside shoulder. I need you to get up there, like, 621 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,439 Speaker 1: don't do anything else. Right, Well, now I'm not me. 622 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: Now I'm a robot. And yes, it might work for 623 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: the scheme, but I diminish who I am as a 624 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: player and as a creator using my abilities and attributes 625 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: to be able to help this team. Now, yes, there 626 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: might be less errors, but you get substantially less of 627 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: who I am as well, and I'm concerned that that 628 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: might happen. I don't know. We'll see, right training camp 629 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: will tell us a lot, but I'm that's my concern 630 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: when it comes down to having these militant type coaches, 631 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: because it's like, jam go straight there, that's it, upfield, shoulder, 632 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: don't do anything. Well, okay, I can't even spin back, 633 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, I can't, you know, 634 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: I can't. I can't What if he oversets, I can't 635 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: come out it underneath, no outside, Okay, So you're yeah. 636 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 7: I think the games dictate that though, And when I 637 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 7: say that, I mean this in a sense of not 638 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,959 Speaker 7: necessarily in that game, but I mean from week two 639 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 7: week where we clearly saw last year at the beginning 640 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 7: of the year that the dax CD relationship on the 641 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 7: field was not on the level that it could have been, 642 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 7: and there was changes made and they really flourished together 643 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 7: as that season went on. So I think that it 644 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 7: could potentially start that way. But if you're not winning games, 645 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 7: you're not playing good defense, then you're gonna have to 646 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 7: make some change. You're gonna have to allow some things. 647 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 7: But I mean, we could have done this whole show 648 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 7: just me personally. I feel like off of what Mike 649 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 7: Zimmer said yesterday, his ten minutes I thought were great 650 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 7: just to get his perspective on different things, and he 651 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 7: stresses the whole idea of we want guys making plays, 652 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 7: but we don't want guys going out of their way 653 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 7: to try and do things where it's leaving another guy 654 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 7: open for you know, basically getting destroyed and allowing bad plays. 655 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 7: And I thought we saw some of that last year, 656 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 7: and so maybe a little bit of structure, a little 657 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 7: bit more structure, I should say. Yeah, that's That's the 658 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 7: other thing that I battle with with all this is 659 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 7: I don't want this to turn into dan Quinn wasn't 660 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 7: a good defensive coordinator, because that's not the case at all. 661 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 7: Like if you don't think he was, then you weren't 662 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 7: watching in twenty twenty because you didn't want to. You 663 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 7: didn't see how bad rock Bottom defense can be and 664 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 7: how in twenty twenty one, twenty two, and twenty three 665 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,719 Speaker 7: how it turned around. Obviously, Mike and Quinn together a 666 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 7: big part of that, so I'm not saying that, but 667 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 7: there can be some tweaks made to it. 668 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: No, tell you, that's my biggest concern, man, because I've 669 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: been in systems, I've been with coaches whereas like, do 670 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: this just how I said to do it, and. 671 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 5: You're playing vicariously through your defensive corda. 672 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 1: You're being what they want you to be. You're not 673 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: being you. You're not being you, And it's not until 674 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: you get with a coach. And I think it's actually 675 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: in the reverse, right. Sometimes we see players start with 676 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 1: that type of coach and then they go to a 677 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: new team or a new coach comes in, and now 678 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: they're able to do what they what they've always wanted 679 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: to do. Go be who you were in college, All right, bet, 680 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: let's go. I'm gonna get to make plays again. Downs 681 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: in the reverse and players are gonna have to adjust 682 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: to that. Seemingly right, Dan Quinn gave you that freedom 683 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: to go out there and just create, and yes, sometimes 684 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: it leads boys, but you get some amazing plays out 685 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: of it as well, because you see some creativeness out 686 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: of Micah and d law and all these other guys 687 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: are able to run around and kind of go rogue 688 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: at times. That's that's what makes players players. But now 689 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 1: those guys have that freedom, and now that freedom's being 690 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: taken seemingly being taken away. So now what do you get. 691 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 8: I think there's probably a healthy balance you can find 692 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 8: there between structure and freedom, because I think there's a 693 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 8: lot of truth to the sense that maybe there was 694 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 8: a little bit too much freedom at times last year, 695 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 8: you know, having Leyton vander esh come off the edge, 696 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 8: or I think Michael Parsons over center worked. 697 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 6: But that's just an example. 698 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 8: But you look at the drafting of Marshawn Nelan and 699 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 8: you look at DeMarcus Lawrence. These are two guys that 700 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 8: are two hundred and sixty five pound plus ins that 701 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 8: you could put on either side of the ball to 702 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 8: stop the run. And you were worried last year about 703 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 8: teams running at Micah, Well, now you've got two guys 704 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 8: on the ends, and if you still want to do 705 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 8: the Mica over center thing, you can still do that 706 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 8: and have him attack the passer. 707 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 6: So you're accounted both ways. 708 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 8: So I think there is still a need for that 709 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 8: freedom in some sense, but maybe there's a healthy balance 710 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 8: you can find somewhere with it. 711 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 7: Their thing is too, is is like, I really don't 712 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 7: care if the players enjoy playing like I don't like. 713 00:29:58,400 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 7: And the only reason I say this, the only reason 714 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 7: I say it this is because and you're no, You're 715 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 7: you're a perfect person. Asked, You're a perfect person? Asked? 716 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 7: Because do you think everybody love playing for Bill? 717 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 6: Sure? 718 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 7: A lot? 719 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 6: Sure? 720 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 7: What a lot? Though, because I would use him as 721 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 7: an example of a coach that during that run six 722 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 7: championships in two decades, I mean, hell of a dynasty 723 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 7: he had going there, I would make the argument that 724 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 7: of all sports, he's probably the coach that players probably 725 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 7: like playing for the least. But when you're winning on 726 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 7: Sundays and your hoisting trophies, so got to kind of 727 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 7: fall online. 728 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: To address that point, Coach Belichick is definitely I don't 729 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: want to call him a militant, but you do what 730 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: you're supposed to do, right, DYJ, DYJ? Do your job. 731 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: That's his thing, right DYJ? All day long? However, he 732 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: was a mastermind of putting you in position to do 733 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 1: what you do best. Sure, Right, there's players that you 734 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: guys never even heard of, and all of a sudden, 735 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: they're out there starting and making plays on a Sunday 736 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: just because he knows what they how they fit best 737 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: in that system against that particular opponent. Right, their assets 738 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: are going to work well against this opponent, right, and 739 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: then you won't see them again for four weeks. They'll 740 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: be on the sideline. Yeah, exactly right. So I don't 741 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: know going into this year that Zimmer is going to 742 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 1: do that, right, right. I get the sense, and I 743 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 1: don't want to put this off on him. I have 744 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: to wait and see. I get the sense that it's like, Okay, 745 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: be who I'm telling you to be in trust that 746 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: the system is going to work. Yeah. 747 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 7: I just hate bringing in Mike and Lawrence and Diggs 748 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 7: and some of these guys into this conversation because they're superstars. 749 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 7: They're going to be allowed to flourish. You know what 750 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 7: I'm saying. 751 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: You would think you would think. 752 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 7: But where I'm coming from, too, is I can take 753 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 7: a step back from a guy maybe having a couple 754 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 7: less interceptions, a couple less sacks. Yeah, if that means 755 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:54,239 Speaker 7: you're winning games in January, I agree. I can't think 756 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 7: of anybody. No, I can't think of a single coach 757 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 7: in any sport that the Phil Jackson's ain't but that 758 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 7: You've heard more players at play their championship level that 759 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 7: have been like, yeah, it wasn't fun. It wasn't fun 760 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 7: when it's going on. I'm glad that we won the championships, 761 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 7: but in the heat of the battle, it was not fun. 762 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 7: During the week in games things like that, like it 763 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 7: wasn't the most enjoyable experience. And I mean, just look 764 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 7: at Bill. There was plenty of times during that run 765 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 7: where I from afar was like does he even enjoy this? 766 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 7: Like they're winning all the time and it's just like 767 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 7: onto the next thing. 768 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: Exactly next to Nick, you have. 769 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 8: Mentioned Digs and Bland, and I think from a secondary's perspective, 770 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 8: I've been trying to find where the biggest change probably 771 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 8: will be under Zim versus Quinn, I don't really see 772 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 8: a ton of major change. I mean, they're gonna run 773 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 8: man coverage top five in the league. Probably might not 774 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,239 Speaker 8: be number one like they were last year as far 775 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 8: as man covered usage, but they'll be top five. They'll 776 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,520 Speaker 8: be pressing, they'll be running a lot of cover one, 777 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 8: cover two shell looks. I think from a secondary perspective, 778 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 8: things will look fairly similar. Now, how many safeties will 779 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 8: you rotate in versus how Quinn did? Maybe that's probably 780 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 8: where you see a little bit of change because you 781 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 8: have to account for that extra linebacker. But I think 782 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 8: most of the change will come up front and what 783 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 8: they will be told to do upfront, their pass rush moves, 784 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 8: and I mean Michael Parsons is such a union corn 785 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 8: in some sense as far as how he can get 786 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 8: to the quarterback, but also how can you start maximizing 787 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 8: him later in the season. I think that's something that 788 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 8: this coaching staff will have to be able to figure 789 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 8: out and try to do and later in games as well. 790 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 8: So I think that's probably gonna where you're going to 791 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 8: see the biggest changes in that front seven. 792 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 7: Do you see a very productive Micah Parsons in December 793 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 7: and January that he looks like the Micah Parsons in September? 794 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 7: Everything else will fall, yeah, absolutely, recond games like that, Yeah, 795 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 7: everything else will take care of itself. 796 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 5: Does the new defensive team kind of lead to a 797 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 5: dip in turnovers? You think? 798 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 8: I'm curious if Isaiah's take on this, because I'm not 799 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:38,320 Speaker 8: bought in on that yet. 800 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 6: Why is that? 801 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: I think so. I think that you'll get a lot 802 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: more three and outs just because of the structure there, 803 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: all right, there's less ability for teams to catch you slipping, right, 804 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: So you know, you might have guys that have the 805 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: freedom or might be a little bit more aggressive up front, 806 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 1: and that leaves the voids. Ah, it got us right, 807 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: We're we're real close. Right, We're real close. We almost 808 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: got the sack. I think you'll see possibly less of that. Again, 809 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 1: this is all speculation, of course. I think you might 810 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: see less of that, but you'll see. I think you 811 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: also see less turnovers because guys. I don't believe that 812 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 1: guys are gonna be allowed to just go be themselves. 813 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 1: And I'm truly concerned about that. 814 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 5: Like especially coming off of Quinn. 815 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, like Quinn like be you like, that's that was 816 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: a culture, right, be you like, I'm gonna put you 817 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: out there. You can saw him. I don't care if 818 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: you go outside. I don't care if you go inside. 819 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,280 Speaker 1: Just win, right, that's not gonna be the case anymore. 820 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: Stay outside, don't let anybody know outside contain I mean 821 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: don't let nobody outside at all, right, And it's like, well, 822 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: I could have went inside and could have got them 823 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 1: under Quinn, you know. And again this is just me speculating, 824 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: but that's my I've been and I'm speaking from experience 825 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: where you weren't allowed to be right and you you 826 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: literally turn into a roadbody and you start checking a box. 827 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 1: And when you're checking a box as a as a 828 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: as a professional athlete, it's not good. 829 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,479 Speaker 7: And hey, I get it. I know it's a player's league. 830 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 7: I mean, hey, just look at the paychecks. You know 831 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 7: who the whole deal is built around. I get that. 832 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 7: I'm just saying that from twenty eight years of not 833 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 7: getting close to host hoisting another Lombardy. If you're going 834 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 7: to tweak some things, you gotta tweak them, because it's 835 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 7: not like you're just riding this thing. We're like, no, no, no, 836 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 7: we got this figured out. Let's just keep doing what 837 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 7: we've been doing. There's got to be some changes in there. 838 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 7: But yeah, you, I think there's got to be a balance. 839 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: There has to be. 840 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 7: I don't think that you can go and I don't 841 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 7: get this sense that Mike Zimmer is going to be 842 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 7: that way where I mean, like the extreme where it's 843 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 7: just like, no, you will only do it this way 844 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 7: because it's my way. 845 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 14: I don't. 846 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 7: I don't think anybody can coach that way to day, 847 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 7: for sure, I don't. 848 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: I don't. 849 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 7: I don't think anybody can do that. 850 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 8: Twenty two years as a defensive coordinator head coach, six 851 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 8: times his teams have ranked in the top ten and takeaways. 852 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 8: I feel like that's fairly fascinating. And I did it 853 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 8: quite a few times in Minnesota. 854 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 7: It was interesting him saying yesterday, he said yesterday. I 855 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 7: thought it was interesting was when he goes, you know, 856 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 7: usually when I come in uh to coach a defense, 857 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 7: it's to fix it because it's been bad. He's like, 858 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 7: and this isn't the case here. You know, it's basically 859 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 7: you know, you got to make some tweaks to it that. 860 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 7: But it's like he rarely in his past has taken 861 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:00,880 Speaker 7: over a defense where it's like, man, there's already you know, 862 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,719 Speaker 7: good players in the back end. You got uh question 863 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 7: marks that linebacker, but there's certainly potential there. And then 864 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 7: I I just as negative as anybody wants to be 865 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 7: about the Cowboys. There's just there's too much talent for 866 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,359 Speaker 7: this team to be bad. I mean, like you look 867 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 7: at that defensive line. They need they need help at 868 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 7: defensive tackle. Don't get me wrong, but there's still like 869 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 7: some really good pieces there that any team would be 870 00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,240 Speaker 7: tickled to have any of these guys. 871 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: You know. 872 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 4: And I don't think anybody is arguing about regular season wins. 873 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 4: I don't think like our expectations are so different now, 874 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 4: like it's it's just about the playoffs. I think the 875 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 4: regular season wins will be there regardless. It's just about 876 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 4: how we perform in Jane Wary seventeen to m Yeah, 877 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 4: all right, boys, we need to take our last break.

Good, Like if you're a 1008 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 7: Cowboys fan, I mean, you really want to see Lamar 1009 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 7: Jackson running around, you can question wherever you want about him. 1010 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 7: In January regular season, Lamar Jackson is a problem. So 1011 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 7: that to me, when I saw the schedule, that's the 1012 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 7: number one just to guarantee. I mean, I will say 1013 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 7: that there are ones. No I'm not saying that, but 1014 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 7: I'm just saying that, you know, uh, you know, you 1015 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,879 Speaker 7: don't have to go back that long and Josh Dobbs 1016 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 7: running around. 1017 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 5: I always look at that. 1018 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 4: So I always look at the schedule with like w's 1019 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 4: and l's and mine, you know what I mean. Not 1020 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 4: that I'm writing him down necessarily in like a sharpie, 1021 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 4: but I'm just like, you know what I mean, Like, 1022 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:58,400 Speaker 4: that's that's one that's. 1023 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 8: Like I'll say this, Hopefully that Baltimore game for the 1024 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 8: Cowboys sake, Hopefully that Baltimore game is later in the season. 1025 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 8: Then earlier in the season, you would like to have 1026 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 8: Overshown healthy and ready to go to be a spy 1027 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:10,240 Speaker 8: on a little more and you would hope that's after 1028 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 8: the end of October. 1029 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 5: Is that your pick as well? 1030 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: Uh? 1031 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would have to be. 1032 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 8: I'm thinking about like the road challenges, you would have 1033 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 8: to go to Pittsburgh and Cleveland. 1034 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 7: But I don't think it's that bad this year. I 1035 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 7: mean depending on whether wise. I just when I look 1036 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 7: at the road schedule, I don't look at it as 1037 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 7: I have in some years past where I'm like, oh, 1038 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 7: that one's gonna be Yeah, Baltimore just don't know San Francisco. Yeah, well, yeah, 1039 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 7: that's true. That's true San Francisco. But San Francisco they 1040 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 7: can play anywhere, and I don't really like their chances. 1041 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 5: I really don't want to see c J strow. 1042 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 6: That game's got to be on Thanksgiving, right, it's gotta be. 1043 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's gotten breaking since I don't know anything, but 1044 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 8: I've been campaigning for that for a couple of months. 1045 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 8: I just think that would be so much fun. Houston 1046 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 8: versus Dallas, Defon Diggs versus Treyvon Diggs, MICUs hopefully Michael 1047 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 8: c J. Yeah, they're basically family now, they as well be. 1048 00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 1: They tried to set it up last year it didn't work. 1049 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, what about you as who you're least looking forward 1050 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 5: to playing in. 1051 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 1: The I think that Baltimore Houston is that both of 1052 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: those cats are tough. But Cleveland to me is for 1053 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 1: week one is tough. Yeah, I'm Cleveland. Week one is tough. 1054 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 1: Cleveland is They're not a flashy team, but they but 1055 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 1: they get the job done. 1056 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,320 Speaker 6: If it was week fourteen, would you feel differently? 1057 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: I would because I would know more about what they 1058 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 1: have going on. 1059 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,439 Speaker 7: Week one at Cleveland or Week one at Philly. Which 1060 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:23,839 Speaker 7: one would you not want to see more? 1061 00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: Week one at Cleveland? 1062 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,359 Speaker 8: I agree it's because of Miles Scarrett. Like you tell 1063 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 8: me Miles s Garrett's off the field, and I would. 1064 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: Say, but the whole defense is solid. It's really good, 1065 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like like those the teams 1066 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 1: that are not very flashy but seemingly are always up 1067 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 1: there in the statistics, Like those are teams you got 1068 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 1: to worry about because they're not making a ton of mistakes. 1069 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 1: So to me, Cleveland is dangerous outside of Baltimore in Houston, 1070 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:46,839 Speaker 1: that just depends on where you're at. 1071 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 4: And last question, really really quick, uh NFC East team 1072 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 4: you do not want to see in Week eighteen. 1073 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 7: Virtually, we always play at Philadelphia. That's the toughest, their 1074 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 7: toughest road environl And is playing it. 1075 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 5: I feel like that's gonna be unanimous. Yeah, Like I 1076 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 5: don't want to see that. 1077 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,800 Speaker 8: A billion Week eighteen. There's gonna be a playoff layover 1078 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 8: like yeah, And. 1079 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 7: I think dan Quinn could get stuff rolling in the 1080 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 7: direction in Washington. I just don't know if it'll be 1081 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:14,800 Speaker 7: in one last season. 1082 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 1: I think Washington is gonna be a lot better than 1083 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 1: people portray them. Yeah. I really think they're going to 1084 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 1: be really competitive this year. I don't think they're gonna 1085 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: have the whole quarterback thing figured out, you know, all 1086 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: the way, but I think they have playoff. I think 1087 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 1: they're gonna be in a conversation, bubb I really think 1088 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:29,839 Speaker 1: they're gonna be on in a conversation. I know people 1089 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:31,399 Speaker 1: are looking at me like I'm crazy. I'm hearing. 1090 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 7: I don't understand howybody could look at you like you're crazy. 1091 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,919 Speaker 7: If that is the case, you're literally That's twenty twelve 1092 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 7: with Robert Griffin Jr. 1093 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 1: Between their between their their draft and their offseason. Veteran acquisitions. Yeah, 1094 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: the blend of those two with that coach. Yeah, it's concerning. 1095 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 5: I don't want see Pati up the middle man. That's 1096 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 5: gonna be tough. 1097 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 4: All Right, boys, thank you so much.
