What 9 00:00:51,468 --> 00:00:54,548 Speaker 1: is Good Morning Football? Presented by Old Trapper Beef Jerky. 10 00:00:54,588 --> 00:00:56,428 Speaker 1: We are alive here in New York City. It's Wednesday, 11 00:00:56,428 --> 00:00:59,468 Speaker 1: September fourteenth. Then, yes, we had the honor and pleasure 12 00:00:59,468 --> 00:01:01,988 Speaker 1: of being on JEVD last night. We all had a clue. 13 00:01:02,028 --> 00:01:04,068 Speaker 1: It was a life memory. Jason, You've done a lot 14 00:01:04,068 --> 00:01:05,628 Speaker 1: of cool things. What was that like? That? That was 15 00:01:05,628 --> 00:01:07,588 Speaker 1: pretty high. I didn't get any text. They were all 16 00:01:07,588 --> 00:01:09,828 Speaker 1: tweets when people I didn't know, So I guessed that 17 00:01:09,908 --> 00:01:15,548 Speaker 1: shows that my friends don't watch it. Yeah, more real guys. 18 00:01:14,348 --> 00:01:17,828 Speaker 1: I forgot to tell her and oh my god, I 19 00:01:17,868 --> 00:01:19,748 Speaker 1: was at soccer practice. There was a lot. There was 20 00:01:19,788 --> 00:01:22,148 Speaker 1: a lot going on for tuesdays. No, so that means 21 00:01:22,188 --> 00:01:24,668 Speaker 1: that she got text from her peers and she was 22 00:01:24,748 --> 00:01:26,708 Speaker 1: mad at you for not telling you, which which I 23 00:01:26,708 --> 00:01:29,828 Speaker 1: can understand. Like that demographic she she was was pretty 24 00:01:29,868 --> 00:01:31,708 Speaker 1: fired up. So I want to shout out to Luigi. 25 00:01:31,788 --> 00:01:36,348 Speaker 1: He got my question rights April, who I had to 26 00:01:36,508 --> 00:01:38,788 Speaker 1: mention this who got that one wrong? She went and 27 00:01:38,828 --> 00:01:42,108 Speaker 1: tweeted later that night and she said, I was listening 28 00:01:42,148 --> 00:01:44,228 Speaker 1: to the question and not looking at the monitor that 29 00:01:44,268 --> 00:01:46,148 Speaker 1: was showing a picture of Peyton Manning, which is the 30 00:01:46,148 --> 00:01:49,148 Speaker 1: biggest reason I got it wrong. Karen Thomas, both player player, 31 00:01:50,108 --> 00:01:51,988 Speaker 1: It's a tricky clue. It was a tricky clue, but 32 00:01:52,148 --> 00:01:55,428 Speaker 1: life memories. It was really cool, awesome. We haven't got 33 00:01:55,468 --> 00:01:57,628 Speaker 1: a fantastic show, but until then, it's time for the 34 00:01:57,708 --> 00:02:01,268 Speaker 1: lead block. We've got a big AFC showdown on the way. 35 00:02:01,428 --> 00:02:03,508 Speaker 1: In week two, the one to O Dolphins had into 36 00:02:03,548 --> 00:02:05,788 Speaker 1: Baltimore and take off the one in oh Ravens. It's 37 00:02:05,788 --> 00:02:09,468 Speaker 1: a particularly fascinating quarterback matchup. Both TWA and Lamar are 38 00:02:09,628 --> 00:02:13,148 Speaker 1: in a make or break situation this season, but for 39 00:02:13,308 --> 00:02:16,068 Speaker 1: very different reasons. One for a long term contracts and 40 00:02:16,148 --> 00:02:19,628 Speaker 1: the other quite possibly for his future. So who needs 41 00:02:19,668 --> 00:02:22,628 Speaker 1: to make a bigger statement in just week two against 42 00:02:22,668 --> 00:02:27,308 Speaker 1: each other or Lamara Jackson. I'm watching the Patriots Dolphins 43 00:02:27,388 --> 00:02:29,828 Speaker 1: game last week, and every time the Patriots started to 44 00:02:29,868 --> 00:02:31,388 Speaker 1: move the ball, get a couple of plays, a Hunter 45 00:02:31,468 --> 00:02:33,708 Speaker 1: Henry pass at Johnny Smith pass, there would be a 46 00:02:33,908 --> 00:02:36,708 Speaker 1: huge hit, a turnover, a game changing play. And I 47 00:02:36,788 --> 00:02:40,308 Speaker 1: think I underestimated this Dolphins defense that you, Jason mccordy 48 00:02:40,348 --> 00:02:42,708 Speaker 1: played on last year going into this season. I think 49 00:02:42,828 --> 00:02:45,228 Speaker 1: Lamar's in for something different than he expects maybe with 50 00:02:45,388 --> 00:02:47,708 Speaker 1: this team, because you watch him on film. They're flying 51 00:02:47,748 --> 00:02:50,468 Speaker 1: all over the ball. That's Melvin Ingram. Remember Melvin Ingram. 52 00:02:50,828 --> 00:02:53,508 Speaker 1: He's wearing a single digit on the Dolphins as a 53 00:02:53,548 --> 00:02:56,108 Speaker 1: pass rusher and was all over the field against New England. 54 00:02:56,148 --> 00:02:58,348 Speaker 1: And you look at that defensive backfield was Avian Howard, 55 00:02:58,508 --> 00:03:02,868 Speaker 1: Javon Holland, talent up and down the roster. And I 56 00:03:02,948 --> 00:03:05,348 Speaker 1: look at Lamar and they say, okay, now you look 57 00:03:05,388 --> 00:03:08,188 Speaker 1: at the score of that Jets game. No explosive runs, 58 00:03:08,508 --> 00:03:11,668 Speaker 1: no huge explosive plays outside the pocket. He did two 59 00:03:11,748 --> 00:03:14,588 Speaker 1: big pass plays, one debatement one to DuVernay. That was 60 00:03:14,628 --> 00:03:16,428 Speaker 1: the game, and that is all you need when you 61 00:03:16,508 --> 00:03:18,948 Speaker 1: win by that many points against the Jets. I'm curious 62 00:03:19,028 --> 00:03:21,348 Speaker 1: to see what this Dolphins defensive game plan is like, 63 00:03:21,468 --> 00:03:23,828 Speaker 1: because I think Lamar needs to start using those legs 64 00:03:23,828 --> 00:03:25,548 Speaker 1: a little bit more against this team, which you're gonna 65 00:03:25,548 --> 00:03:26,988 Speaker 1: be flushing him out of the pocket quite a bit. 66 00:03:27,108 --> 00:03:30,948 Speaker 1: It was as if you just tied me up. They 67 00:03:31,108 --> 00:03:34,308 Speaker 1: played last year Thursday Night Football, and I want to 68 00:03:34,348 --> 00:03:36,828 Speaker 1: show you guys what their drives were like throughout that game. 69 00:03:36,908 --> 00:03:40,788 Speaker 1: How those drives ended for Lamar Jackson. And there's Baltimore 70 00:03:40,948 --> 00:03:45,388 Speaker 1: Ravens offense, pump pump, pump, pump pump, interception, phone ball. 71 00:03:45,468 --> 00:03:48,148 Speaker 1: They had one field goal, they missed one, and they 72 00:03:48,188 --> 00:03:50,788 Speaker 1: had a touchdown, the only two scoring drives of the 73 00:03:51,148 --> 00:03:55,228 Speaker 1: entire game one touchdown, one field goal. And on top 74 00:03:55,308 --> 00:03:58,668 Speaker 1: of that, the Miami Dolphins they just blitzed the hell 75 00:03:58,708 --> 00:04:02,588 Speaker 1: out of Lamar Jackson. Javan Holland and Brandon Jones had 76 00:04:02,628 --> 00:04:05,788 Speaker 1: the most blitzes in a game since two thousand and 77 00:04:05,908 --> 00:04:10,068 Speaker 1: sixteen when these next gen stats start for dB Steve 78 00:04:10,188 --> 00:04:12,868 Speaker 1: not just say DBS. They had a ton of Blitzers. 79 00:04:12,908 --> 00:04:16,028 Speaker 1: They were all over him, and the Baltimore Ravens never 80 00:04:16,188 --> 00:04:19,788 Speaker 1: had an answer for it was Max Blitz. There was 81 00:04:19,908 --> 00:04:21,948 Speaker 1: no safeties back there in the middle of the field. 82 00:04:22,228 --> 00:04:24,708 Speaker 1: On the halves of the field, it was just DB's 83 00:04:24,788 --> 00:04:28,908 Speaker 1: covering receivers with absolutely no help. They kept Lamar in 84 00:04:28,988 --> 00:04:31,028 Speaker 1: the pocket and they got after him. So for me, 85 00:04:31,268 --> 00:04:34,108 Speaker 1: I want to see Lamar Jackson and his Ravens offense. 86 00:04:34,388 --> 00:04:36,508 Speaker 1: What is their adjustments? What are they gonna do. You 87 00:04:36,668 --> 00:04:39,388 Speaker 1: have to assume at some point Miami's going to come 88 00:04:39,508 --> 00:04:41,868 Speaker 1: after him and see if they've made the adjustments from 89 00:04:41,908 --> 00:04:43,828 Speaker 1: last season. I had no idea that the twenty twenty 90 00:04:43,868 --> 00:04:46,628 Speaker 1: two Dolphins with the Steeve curtains seventies, what the hell 91 00:04:46,788 --> 00:04:48,548 Speaker 1: is going on here? That was a hell of a 92 00:04:48,628 --> 00:04:51,188 Speaker 1: hype job. I didn't know that out of nowhere they look, 93 00:04:51,308 --> 00:04:53,028 Speaker 1: they look really get against the pages. To me, the 94 00:04:53,108 --> 00:04:56,068 Speaker 1: answer is Lamar for so many different reasons. First of all, 95 00:04:56,388 --> 00:05:00,468 Speaker 1: Alan and my homes and Herbert and those are the guys. Hello, 96 00:05:00,828 --> 00:05:02,628 Speaker 1: can I can I get some love over here? I 97 00:05:02,748 --> 00:05:05,188 Speaker 1: came and I think this is an a sense and 98 00:05:05,268 --> 00:05:07,148 Speaker 1: I don't want to put any receipts out there, but 99 00:05:07,268 --> 00:05:08,948 Speaker 1: like the Jets were not real good in Week one, 100 00:05:08,948 --> 00:05:10,668 Speaker 1: and I feel like, in a sense, this is Lamar's 101 00:05:10,708 --> 00:05:12,508 Speaker 1: season opener. All he did to show up against the 102 00:05:12,588 --> 00:05:14,148 Speaker 1: Jets and just slap them around for a few quarters 103 00:05:14,188 --> 00:05:16,428 Speaker 1: and throw three touchdowns, all of them pretty long, including 104 00:05:16,508 --> 00:05:18,828 Speaker 1: one over fifty yards. Lamar's whole season is going to 105 00:05:18,868 --> 00:05:21,468 Speaker 1: be about the contract extension, and we're in this weird, 106 00:05:21,548 --> 00:05:24,308 Speaker 1: almost Kirk Cousins territory where it's like a week to 107 00:05:24,428 --> 00:05:27,788 Speaker 1: week referendum on Lamar. I'm not totally sure why, but 108 00:05:27,828 --> 00:05:30,948 Speaker 1: it's so unique with his contract situations, his own representation 109 00:05:31,068 --> 00:05:33,828 Speaker 1: or lack thereof, that's always big. If he throws five touchdowns, 110 00:05:33,868 --> 00:05:35,948 Speaker 1: do they do a deal? If he throws three interceptions, 111 00:05:35,988 --> 00:05:37,668 Speaker 1: do they not do a deal? But then above and 112 00:05:37,788 --> 00:05:40,468 Speaker 1: beyond that, the other optic with Lamar all year is 113 00:05:40,508 --> 00:05:41,668 Speaker 1: just gonna be I guess I'm not one of the 114 00:05:41,748 --> 00:05:44,868 Speaker 1: cool kids. I'm not totally sure why, but there's so 115 00:05:45,028 --> 00:05:47,028 Speaker 1: much appreciation for Alan and Mahomes, and they were good. 116 00:05:47,068 --> 00:05:49,388 Speaker 1: I know Lamar was hurt last year, but Patrick Mahomes 117 00:05:49,428 --> 00:05:51,188 Speaker 1: does a shovel pass for the fifty a time, and 118 00:05:51,268 --> 00:05:52,588 Speaker 1: all our hair is supposed to be on the fire. 119 00:05:52,748 --> 00:05:55,628 Speaker 1: Lamar had an unbelievable no look pass in that game 120 00:05:55,668 --> 00:05:57,668 Speaker 1: against the Jets that no one seems to care about. 121 00:05:57,748 --> 00:06:00,668 Speaker 1: And maybe we've been spoiled by Lamar's athleticism, and Peter says, 122 00:06:00,668 --> 00:06:01,828 Speaker 1: you want to see more of it next week? So 123 00:06:01,988 --> 00:06:03,948 Speaker 1: do I? He didna have to use it? Yeah, I 124 00:06:03,988 --> 00:06:05,748 Speaker 1: feel like there we saw him running around the pocket 125 00:06:05,748 --> 00:06:07,188 Speaker 1: a little bit and I didn't mean to cut you off. 126 00:06:07,628 --> 00:06:09,988 Speaker 1: Do you see the physical It looks like he's put 127 00:06:10,028 --> 00:06:11,788 Speaker 1: on ten to fifteen pounds. It's a muscle, it's big. 128 00:06:11,868 --> 00:06:14,628 Speaker 1: Lamar looks different out there, and I'm not sure if 129 00:06:14,668 --> 00:06:16,868 Speaker 1: it's the same Lamar that it was. And it's obviously 130 00:06:16,948 --> 00:06:19,308 Speaker 1: gonna help him long term, but like, have you noticed 131 00:06:19,308 --> 00:06:21,428 Speaker 1: that he looks a little bit different? No? No, you 132 00:06:21,508 --> 00:06:23,348 Speaker 1: think is that a thing? He's gained weight? I didn't know. 133 00:06:23,388 --> 00:06:26,628 Speaker 1: I could see. If he's like this now, is there 134 00:06:26,708 --> 00:06:29,388 Speaker 1: then an accompanying concern that maybe he'll lose a step 135 00:06:29,508 --> 00:06:31,068 Speaker 1: or Yeah? No, I don't know. That's the thing. I'm 136 00:06:31,108 --> 00:06:32,948 Speaker 1: curious to see. He looked apart on money, but like 137 00:06:33,028 --> 00:06:34,948 Speaker 1: I think against his Dolphins even it's gonna be pounding him. 138 00:06:34,948 --> 00:06:36,988 Speaker 1: I'm curious to go there's a there's a perfect sound 139 00:06:37,028 --> 00:06:38,948 Speaker 1: bite to put off there for Lamar in the media, 140 00:06:38,988 --> 00:06:40,748 Speaker 1: which is like, I think he might have lost the 141 00:06:40,828 --> 00:06:42,588 Speaker 1: step and the next time he's just gonna blow someone 142 00:06:42,628 --> 00:06:44,068 Speaker 1: out of their cleats. I think Lamar has to have 143 00:06:44,108 --> 00:06:46,068 Speaker 1: a huge game. I think in oddly, there's almost more 144 00:06:46,068 --> 00:06:47,668 Speaker 1: attention on two a tongue of iloa in the skin 145 00:06:47,708 --> 00:06:49,828 Speaker 1: than there is in Lamar because this Dolphins have this intrigue. 146 00:06:50,068 --> 00:06:51,748 Speaker 1: But I go with the number eight for the Ravens. Listen, 147 00:06:51,748 --> 00:06:53,548 Speaker 1: I know when you played Jeopardy, the strategy as once 148 00:06:53,548 --> 00:06:55,788 Speaker 1: you stay in one category, you should all go down. 149 00:06:55,948 --> 00:06:58,228 Speaker 1: But like Lamar, Lamar, Lamar, Like what are we doing 150 00:06:58,348 --> 00:07:02,068 Speaker 1: to It's week two. Lamar has an entire franchise worth 151 00:07:02,148 --> 00:07:04,148 Speaker 1: of fans that are clamoring for him to get paid. 152 00:07:04,508 --> 00:07:07,108 Speaker 1: He has nothing to prove. The people want him there, 153 00:07:07,188 --> 00:07:09,908 Speaker 1: the people won him as the Baltimore Ravens quarterback. He's good. 154 00:07:09,988 --> 00:07:12,228 Speaker 1: He's just gonna be Lamar and things will work out 155 00:07:12,268 --> 00:07:14,468 Speaker 1: for him. To a Tuna Voloa, he is working for 156 00:07:14,708 --> 00:07:18,188 Speaker 1: his career here week to week. He has suffered through 157 00:07:18,308 --> 00:07:22,948 Speaker 1: two seasons of doubt, criticism, and at times it's warranted. 158 00:07:23,108 --> 00:07:25,548 Speaker 1: His play has not been up to the expectation that 159 00:07:25,668 --> 00:07:28,588 Speaker 1: he was coming into the NFL, and last week he showed. 160 00:07:28,828 --> 00:07:30,908 Speaker 1: He showed why he was drafted where he was. He 161 00:07:30,988 --> 00:07:33,028 Speaker 1: showed why he was the quarterback he was coming out 162 00:07:33,068 --> 00:07:35,628 Speaker 1: of college. Maybe Mike McDaniel is the right fit, maybe 163 00:07:35,708 --> 00:07:38,628 Speaker 1: finally having these two wide receivers. But if this happens, 164 00:07:38,668 --> 00:07:41,108 Speaker 1: if things go poorly for him, the criticism here it 165 00:07:41,188 --> 00:07:43,628 Speaker 1: comes again. Someone else should take his job here, it 166 00:07:43,708 --> 00:07:46,108 Speaker 1: comes on and on and on. I don't see that 167 00:07:46,188 --> 00:07:48,308 Speaker 1: happening to Lamar Jackson, which is why I think in 168 00:07:48,388 --> 00:07:51,748 Speaker 1: a week two situation against another against an MVP quarterback, 169 00:07:51,828 --> 00:07:54,268 Speaker 1: Lamar has already won an MVP two US nowhere near that, 170 00:07:54,388 --> 00:07:56,388 Speaker 1: just yet to us more pressure on him every week. 171 00:07:56,428 --> 00:07:58,148 Speaker 1: I think that's going to be the story. I do too, 172 00:07:58,308 --> 00:08:00,108 Speaker 1: and especially if they win this game that I just 173 00:08:00,148 --> 00:08:03,388 Speaker 1: convinced a switcher. I think maybe the Dolphins are more 174 00:08:03,468 --> 00:08:05,268 Speaker 1: interesting than the raven It's just it's just in the 175 00:08:05,308 --> 00:08:06,908 Speaker 1: sense that it's new and fresh, and the Ravens have 176 00:08:06,988 --> 00:08:09,228 Speaker 1: been good for years. If the Dolphins put two and oh, 177 00:08:09,508 --> 00:08:11,668 Speaker 1: that we have a story. It wins over the Patriots 178 00:08:11,708 --> 00:08:13,868 Speaker 1: and Ravens. Yeah, and then it's McDaniel. Oh my god, 179 00:08:13,948 --> 00:08:15,188 Speaker 1: this is the story of the season, and we all 180 00:08:15,228 --> 00:08:17,868 Speaker 1: get excited. I actually think that the two thing is 181 00:08:17,868 --> 00:08:19,868 Speaker 1: interesting because I didn't you follow it during the off season. 182 00:08:19,868 --> 00:08:20,988 Speaker 1: It's all the thing, and then you get their Week 183 00:08:21,028 --> 00:08:23,628 Speaker 1: one and play fine. They put twenty four, They played fine. 184 00:08:23,748 --> 00:08:26,548 Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater's is backup, like that's the consummate backup if 185 00:08:26,628 --> 00:08:29,468 Speaker 1: things do start getting rocky. That's an obvious conversation on 186 00:08:29,548 --> 00:08:32,188 Speaker 1: sports talk radio. That could obviously be the conversation in 187 00:08:32,268 --> 00:08:34,788 Speaker 1: South Florida. And things have knockne rocky yet. So I 188 00:08:34,828 --> 00:08:37,428 Speaker 1: think that's why it is intriguing Jamie, because the second 189 00:08:37,708 --> 00:08:39,708 Speaker 1: the Ravens do get after him, there might be people 190 00:08:39,788 --> 00:08:41,668 Speaker 1: chirping and maybe it's time to go to Teddy already, 191 00:08:41,748 --> 00:08:43,628 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, especially with all of those weapons, the 192 00:08:43,708 --> 00:08:46,988 Speaker 1: revamped offensive line to jail and waddle, so I can 193 00:08:47,068 --> 00:08:48,788 Speaker 1: see that have them. But to me, the way their 194 00:08:48,868 --> 00:08:51,388 Speaker 1: offenses around you watched their game last week two have 195 00:08:51,548 --> 00:08:53,548 Speaker 1: had a few plays where it was just like you 196 00:08:53,628 --> 00:08:55,268 Speaker 1: just threw the ball up in the air. One guy 197 00:08:55,388 --> 00:08:57,788 Speaker 1: knocks it down from about to be intercepted. He threw 198 00:08:57,868 --> 00:08:59,628 Speaker 1: some as he's getting ready to get sacked and kind 199 00:08:59,628 --> 00:09:01,588 Speaker 1: of just lets him loose. So those are the plays 200 00:09:01,628 --> 00:09:03,548 Speaker 1: where it's just like the pressure comes because it's just 201 00:09:03,668 --> 00:09:06,588 Speaker 1: like you see the passage Allen wallowed anticipations, just like 202 00:09:06,868 --> 00:09:08,428 Speaker 1: it looks so good, this is what we're used to 203 00:09:08,708 --> 00:09:12,788 Speaker 1: and you see someone a brain fart plays fart. Which 204 00:09:12,868 --> 00:09:15,708 Speaker 1: two are we going to get? The expectation for Lamar 205 00:09:15,868 --> 00:09:19,148 Speaker 1: Jackson is so high that we're everybody's kind of waiting 206 00:09:19,188 --> 00:09:21,188 Speaker 1: for two of a mess up. I think with Lamar 207 00:09:21,348 --> 00:09:22,988 Speaker 1: is just like you just said, we want to put 208 00:09:23,068 --> 00:09:26,108 Speaker 1: him into Patrick Mahomes and the Josh Allen conversation. So 209 00:09:26,428 --> 00:09:27,948 Speaker 1: it's just like, hey, we're just waiting for it to 210 00:09:27,988 --> 00:09:30,388 Speaker 1: get back there. Our insider ian report is joining us. 211 00:09:30,468 --> 00:09:31,948 Speaker 1: Now we're going to check in on a couple of 212 00:09:31,988 --> 00:09:34,748 Speaker 1: those quarterbacks that had some injury issues which we hate 213 00:09:34,788 --> 00:09:37,148 Speaker 1: to see across the league. Let's start with Dak Prescott 214 00:09:37,428 --> 00:09:40,148 Speaker 1: and tag us with Mac Jones the insane situation with 215 00:09:40,268 --> 00:09:43,068 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys yesterday, they like did not to put 216 00:09:43,188 --> 00:09:46,068 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott on injured reserve. Now, remember he had successful 217 00:09:46,108 --> 00:09:49,148 Speaker 1: surgery to repair that broken dumb a fracture at the 218 00:09:49,228 --> 00:09:51,588 Speaker 1: base of his thumb. He had a pin inserted. He 219 00:09:51,668 --> 00:09:55,148 Speaker 1: had a plate insert all to stabilize the thumb. Obviously, 220 00:09:55,228 --> 00:09:57,428 Speaker 1: it is a righte thrum. He is a right, righty 221 00:09:57,508 --> 00:10:00,788 Speaker 1: throwing quarterback, so grip is important. But what the Cowboys 222 00:10:00,828 --> 00:10:03,268 Speaker 1: did is give themselves at least a little window of 223 00:10:03,348 --> 00:10:07,228 Speaker 1: opportunity just in case he's back within four weeks. Seems 224 00:10:07,228 --> 00:10:08,708 Speaker 1: a little far fetched. He's going to be able to 225 00:10:08,748 --> 00:10:10,788 Speaker 1: take part in practice. That is a part of it too, 226 00:10:11,188 --> 00:10:14,268 Speaker 1: but they believe there is at least a possibility that 227 00:10:14,428 --> 00:10:16,988 Speaker 1: he could be back at around four weeks, which would 228 00:10:16,988 --> 00:10:19,708 Speaker 1: be October sixteenth against the Eagles. That would be best 229 00:10:19,788 --> 00:10:22,668 Speaker 1: case scenario, still possible. Otherwise it is going to be 230 00:10:22,788 --> 00:10:26,348 Speaker 1: Cooper Russian for the Dallas Cowboys. Meanwhile, much better news 231 00:10:26,468 --> 00:10:28,988 Speaker 1: for Mac Jones, who was shaken up on Sunday. Did 232 00:10:29,108 --> 00:10:31,188 Speaker 1: not meet with reporters because he was doing with a 233 00:10:31,308 --> 00:10:33,748 Speaker 1: back injury. Had X rays that were negative, and the 234 00:10:34,028 --> 00:10:37,988 Speaker 1: MRI and other tests came back relatively clean. My understanding, 235 00:10:38,228 --> 00:10:41,028 Speaker 1: it was basically just back spasms, which means that if 236 00:10:41,068 --> 00:10:43,828 Speaker 1: he continues to progress well and he's had no setbacks 237 00:10:43,868 --> 00:10:45,868 Speaker 1: as far as I know, he should be able to 238 00:10:45,988 --> 00:10:48,788 Speaker 1: practice in some form or fashion today. And then be 239 00:10:48,868 --> 00:10:51,628 Speaker 1: able to play in a big game now against the 240 00:10:51,708 --> 00:10:54,588 Speaker 1: Steelers on Sunday. All right, Ian Rappaport, keeping us up 241 00:10:54,588 --> 00:10:56,068 Speaker 1: to date with a quarterback, so we need to know 242 00:10:56,108 --> 00:10:58,268 Speaker 1: about across the NFL. Thank you. We'll talk to you 243 00:10:58,348 --> 00:11:02,028 Speaker 1: a little bit now. After Nachie Harris went down with 244 00:11:02,188 --> 00:11:04,708 Speaker 1: a foot injury in the Steelers Week one win over 245 00:11:04,748 --> 00:11:06,548 Speaker 1: the bang Goals, he told our friend Adam Shine that 246 00:11:06,628 --> 00:11:09,548 Speaker 1: he's all right. Undrafted rookie though running back Dalen Warren's 247 00:11:09,628 --> 00:11:11,788 Speaker 1: number was called by Mike Tomlin, and here's what he 248 00:11:11,908 --> 00:11:15,668 Speaker 1: had to say about the rookies first NFL game. You know, 249 00:11:15,708 --> 00:11:17,628 Speaker 1: he didn't urinate down his leg. Man. That's a great 250 00:11:17,668 --> 00:11:21,188 Speaker 1: place to begin, you know, And that's capable happening for 251 00:11:21,228 --> 00:11:23,308 Speaker 1: a young guy. And so but I think that's been 252 00:11:23,348 --> 00:11:27,148 Speaker 1: indicative of him throughout this process, and that's why he's 253 00:11:27,188 --> 00:11:29,588 Speaker 1: gone from being an undrafted guy to a guy that's 254 00:11:29,708 --> 00:11:34,628 Speaker 1: carving a rollout for himself. All right, congratulations Dalen Warren. 255 00:11:34,708 --> 00:11:37,908 Speaker 1: It's time out for whiteboard Wednesday. Mike Tomlin was just 256 00:11:38,068 --> 00:11:41,308 Speaker 1: impressed that Warren wasn't too nervous for him himself to 257 00:11:41,348 --> 00:11:43,628 Speaker 1: go out there first NFL game. It is a big deal. 258 00:11:43,708 --> 00:11:46,348 Speaker 1: The rookie performance. Though, here comes our whiteboard question, the 259 00:11:46,468 --> 00:11:49,988 Speaker 1: rookie performance that impressed you in Week one, Hey, rook 260 00:11:50,588 --> 00:11:53,628 Speaker 1: was a lot of spotlight on say Quon Barkley, but 261 00:11:53,708 --> 00:11:56,188 Speaker 1: the Giants had a first round pick out there moving bodies. 262 00:11:56,388 --> 00:11:59,748 Speaker 1: We talk some offensive tackle, talk about Evan Neil number 263 00:11:59,828 --> 00:12:01,668 Speaker 1: seventy three, and I'm gonna give you one play in 264 00:12:01,868 --> 00:12:05,148 Speaker 1: particular here.

Hey, this huge, 266 00:12:08,868 --> 00:12:12,188 Speaker 1: huge rushing yard game by Saquon. The entire offensive line 267 00:12:12,188 --> 00:12:15,148 Speaker 1: deserves some credit. We bashed the Giants offensive line for 268 00:12:15,268 --> 00:12:17,148 Speaker 1: six months in the off season. Week one, I gotta 269 00:12:17,148 --> 00:12:20,148 Speaker 1: give him their due. Evan Neil is my shout out one. 270 00:12:20,188 --> 00:12:22,628 Speaker 1: Anytime talking offensive tackles, I didn't play the game, it 271 00:12:22,708 --> 00:12:24,508 Speaker 1: means that I saw something special and it was out 272 00:12:24,548 --> 00:12:27,148 Speaker 1: of evennil just pushing NFL pass rushings. Aside for me, 273 00:12:27,508 --> 00:12:30,188 Speaker 1: there was a rookie who also didn't do that, d 274 00:12:30,508 --> 00:12:34,228 Speaker 1: co Holts.

They had 311 00:14:13,868 --> 00:14:16,548 Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin in Washington, but they needed him to be 312 00:14:16,628 --> 00:14:19,428 Speaker 1: a big guy, and man wasn't.

Time for Today's wake Up Call, 321 00:14:56,348 --> 00:14:58,588 Speaker 1: presented by Verizon, and it was a big wake up 322 00:14:58,628 --> 00:15:00,708 Speaker 1: call for Nathaniel Hackett, Russell Wilson and the rest of 323 00:15:00,708 --> 00:15:03,668 Speaker 1: the Broncos when Denver opted to kick a sixty four 324 00:15:03,788 --> 00:15:06,588 Speaker 1: yard fuel goal twice for the win and either one 325 00:15:06,668 --> 00:15:09,348 Speaker 1: was good.

You didn't need validation. I wanted to 330 00:15:22,348 --> 00:15:24,708 Speaker 1: win for all the reasons that came along with this one. 331 00:15:24,828 --> 00:15:27,108 Speaker 1: Maybe as much as anything is representing the guys that 332 00:15:27,188 --> 00:15:29,108 Speaker 1: have played before. It meant a lot to those guys. 333 00:15:29,428 --> 00:15:31,108 Speaker 1: I was so thrilled to be able to hug those 334 00:15:31,148 --> 00:15:33,908 Speaker 1: guys up and see them and look them in the eye. 335 00:15:34,588 --> 00:15:37,148 Speaker 1: Who's all it keeps going. It was really meaningful and 336 00:15:37,188 --> 00:15:39,068 Speaker 1: they really wanted it, and I knew we were playing 337 00:15:39,148 --> 00:15:43,308 Speaker 1: for a lot more than just the regular stuff. How 338 00:15:43,348 --> 00:15:46,148 Speaker 1: many different ways can we say things without actually saying them. 339 00:15:46,428 --> 00:15:48,428 Speaker 1: We have thoughts on Pete Carroll opening up on the 340 00:15:48,468 --> 00:15:50,948 Speaker 1: Seahawks win over the Broncos, because even though it was 341 00:15:50,988 --> 00:15:52,748 Speaker 1: Week one and you're supposed to be on to the next, 342 00:15:53,028 --> 00:15:54,588 Speaker 1: this one had some baggage to do it. I think 343 00:15:54,628 --> 00:15:57,188 Speaker 1: Pete took the relative high road the whole way for 344 00:15:57,188 --> 00:15:59,508 Speaker 1: the last two years. When Russell's agent comes out and says, 345 00:15:59,548 --> 00:16:01,908 Speaker 1: I want to play in four different cities, Las Vegas, 346 00:16:01,988 --> 00:16:04,548 Speaker 1: Chicago while you're still our quarterback. Whereas Russell, you know, 347 00:16:04,668 --> 00:16:06,948 Speaker 1: in so many ways, wanted his way out of Seattle, 348 00:16:06,988 --> 00:16:08,668 Speaker 1: which they were building something around him and had these 349 00:16:08,748 --> 00:16:10,708 Speaker 1: great history. I think Pete at some point was like, 350 00:16:11,028 --> 00:16:14,388 Speaker 1: screw it. We're the Seattle Seahawks and for two years 351 00:16:14,468 --> 00:16:16,868 Speaker 1: we had just been beaten over the drum about about 352 00:16:16,908 --> 00:16:19,748 Speaker 1: how we're not supporting you. Like, what kind of leadership 353 00:16:19,868 --> 00:16:21,708 Speaker 1: was that? I look at the ex players that were 354 00:16:21,748 --> 00:16:24,348 Speaker 1: at that game and it's the guys from the Legion 355 00:16:24,388 --> 00:16:28,148 Speaker 1: of Boone era and it's Walter Thurmond and it's kJ Wright, 356 00:16:28,588 --> 00:16:31,108 Speaker 1: and it's guys like Richard Sherman, and they're all in 357 00:16:31,148 --> 00:16:33,988 Speaker 1: the house and they're not there to welcome Russ back. 358 00:16:34,108 --> 00:16:36,908 Speaker 1: They're there to cheer on the Seahawks and celebrate Walt 359 00:16:36,948 --> 00:16:39,828 Speaker 1: Thurman getting his you know, his number and everything getting honored. 360 00:16:39,868 --> 00:16:42,668 Speaker 1: Like there was no like, oh, Russ's first game, We're 361 00:16:42,668 --> 00:16:45,028 Speaker 1: there to shower him with love. It was Russ, We're 362 00:16:45,028 --> 00:16:46,868 Speaker 1: gonna root hard for the Seahawks, And I think Pete 363 00:16:46,948 --> 00:16:48,588 Speaker 1: sort of embodied that as well. I don't think there 364 00:16:48,668 --> 00:16:50,028 Speaker 1: was any love loss as much as we thought this 365 00:16:50,188 --> 00:16:52,228 Speaker 1: was going to be some grand ceremony of great great 366 00:16:52,308 --> 00:16:54,348 Speaker 1: like hugs and romance. I don't think it was that. Yeah, 367 00:16:54,388 --> 00:16:56,508 Speaker 1: And they asked him like why didn't mean so much? 368 00:16:56,588 --> 00:16:59,668 Speaker 1: And Pete Carroll said figure it out, And that kind 369 00:16:59,748 --> 00:17:01,508 Speaker 1: of says it off. All the way back when end 370 00:17:01,628 --> 00:17:03,588 Speaker 1: up losing that Super Bowl where they throwed the past 371 00:17:03,708 --> 00:17:06,468 Speaker 1: and Malcolm the intercepts it, there was all the rumblings 372 00:17:06,508 --> 00:17:08,468 Speaker 1: that guys on the team felt like, hey, it was 373 00:17:08,548 --> 00:17:10,868 Speaker 1: definitely should have given Marshawn Lynch the ball, and it 374 00:17:10,988 --> 00:17:13,308 Speaker 1: was that question of whose team is Is it Marshawn 375 00:17:13,388 --> 00:17:16,188 Speaker 1: Lynch's team, is it Russell Wilson's team. I've talked to 376 00:17:16,268 --> 00:17:18,948 Speaker 1: guys from that era. There is no like hate for 377 00:17:19,108 --> 00:17:21,388 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, but there's guys I think that just wanted 378 00:17:21,428 --> 00:17:23,668 Speaker 1: to be known the way it was. Hey, we ran 379 00:17:23,828 --> 00:17:26,508 Speaker 1: the football and we played good defense. I talked to 380 00:17:26,548 --> 00:17:29,188 Speaker 1: a guy this offseason about Russ going to Denver. Hey, 381 00:17:29,268 --> 00:17:32,148 Speaker 1: Denver can be the team, and it was like, let's 382 00:17:32,188 --> 00:17:33,748 Speaker 1: wait and see. I don't know if he's the guy 383 00:17:33,868 --> 00:17:36,348 Speaker 1: that we all are making him out to be. Let's 384 00:17:36,388 --> 00:17:37,868 Speaker 1: see what he's able to do when you don't have 385 00:17:38,028 --> 00:17:39,988 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch in the backfield and you don't have a 386 00:17:40,068 --> 00:17:41,988 Speaker 1: Legion of Boom type of defense. So I think for 387 00:17:42,068 --> 00:17:44,628 Speaker 1: those guys, they take it kind of personal that all 388 00:17:44,668 --> 00:17:47,028 Speaker 1: the credit kind of goes to Russ opposed to some 389 00:17:47,188 --> 00:17:48,908 Speaker 1: of those other guys. I was on that team and 390 00:17:48,988 --> 00:17:50,708 Speaker 1: I era that had a lot to do with them 391 00:17:50,788 --> 00:17:53,068 Speaker 1: being in a Supernoe doubts and listen there. I don't 392 00:17:53,068 --> 00:17:55,508 Speaker 1: think there's any hate. It might be dislike, Yeah, there's 393 00:17:55,668 --> 00:17:58,428 Speaker 1: definitely a huge eye roll factor. For all those guys 394 00:17:58,508 --> 00:18:00,308 Speaker 1: and all things Russ. We just saw it from Pete. 395 00:18:00,348 --> 00:18:02,388 Speaker 1: You can go man to man for all those ex 396 00:18:02,468 --> 00:18:06,068 Speaker 1: Seahawks on Twitter and in person, a cascade of booze 397 00:18:06,228 --> 00:18:09,228 Speaker 1: from the fans. Russell Wilson is this very positive figure 398 00:18:09,268 --> 00:18:10,948 Speaker 1: in the league because he's a good person and plays 399 00:18:10,988 --> 00:18:12,908 Speaker 1: really hard. I don't think he's terribly well liked, and 400 00:18:12,948 --> 00:18:15,268 Speaker 1: who cares. A lot of great athletes aren't. I think 401 00:18:15,348 --> 00:18:18,708 Speaker 1: there's an inauthenticity about him. But I talked a lot 402 00:18:18,748 --> 00:18:20,908 Speaker 1: about yesterday. I have a hard time relating to Russell 403 00:18:20,908 --> 00:18:23,468 Speaker 1: Wilson in any way. There's some guys who are instantly relatable, 404 00:18:23,708 --> 00:18:25,988 Speaker 1: the Brett Varves or the Baker Mayfields, or the Josh 405 00:18:26,068 --> 00:18:28,508 Speaker 1: Allens who's a farmer's son and had no offers coming 406 00:18:28,508 --> 00:18:30,708 Speaker 1: out of college. The rust thing is just I am 407 00:18:30,788 --> 00:18:33,108 Speaker 1: so famous and I'm so perfect and everything is so great. 408 00:18:33,228 --> 00:18:34,588 Speaker 1: I think it turns a lot of people off. And 409 00:18:34,828 --> 00:18:36,428 Speaker 1: I'm the greatest player ever. Like, I don't know, we 410 00:18:36,468 --> 00:18:38,468 Speaker 1: watched those teams, Russ, Like I think you were a 411 00:18:38,508 --> 00:18:39,948 Speaker 1: passenger on a lot of those teams, So I think 412 00:18:39,948 --> 00:18:42,348 Speaker 1: there's a lot of resentment for that. There's a pretty 413 00:18:42,428 --> 00:18:45,308 Speaker 1: famous Seahawks fan who watches our show sometimes who I 414 00:18:45,388 --> 00:18:48,028 Speaker 1: had the same thing yesterday about inauthenticity and emailed me 415 00:18:48,068 --> 00:18:51,428 Speaker 1: after watching the show and was like, yes, exactly, that 416 00:18:51,748 --> 00:18:53,868 Speaker 1: is why he was booed there is the marriage went 417 00:18:53,908 --> 00:18:55,668 Speaker 1: bad with Seattle, and that doesn't mean won't go great 418 00:18:55,668 --> 00:18:57,548 Speaker 1: with Denver. But it was time to go and that's 419 00:18:57,548 --> 00:19:00,428 Speaker 1: why Seahawks man's booted the hell out of them. Yesterday, 420 00:19:00,508 --> 00:19:03,188 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes spoke about the challenge he's facing tomorrow night 421 00:19:03,228 --> 00:19:07,308 Speaker 1: against the Chargers defense in their new arrival in Khalil Mack. So, 422 00:19:07,428 --> 00:19:10,308 Speaker 1: you saw every everybody in this division get pass rushers, 423 00:19:10,348 --> 00:19:12,028 Speaker 1: and so they can go out there and get after 424 00:19:12,068 --> 00:19:14,428 Speaker 1: the quarterback and make it hard on us. But Khalil's 425 00:19:14,588 --> 00:19:16,588 Speaker 1: a great player. I mean obviously they have Bos already 426 00:19:16,628 --> 00:19:18,908 Speaker 1: with a lot of other guys that go out there 427 00:19:18,908 --> 00:19:20,308 Speaker 1: and can rush the passer, and then they have a 428 00:19:20,348 --> 00:19:22,348 Speaker 1: good defense everywhere. I mean, they have Darwin at safety. 429 00:19:22,428 --> 00:19:24,028 Speaker 1: I know job jac I don't know if he's playing 430 00:19:24,028 --> 00:19:25,148 Speaker 1: it out, but he's a great corner and they have 431 00:19:25,228 --> 00:19:26,948 Speaker 1: other corners I can play as well. So I mean 432 00:19:26,988 --> 00:19:28,708 Speaker 1: this is a great defense, a great challenge for us. 433 00:19:28,748 --> 00:19:30,868 Speaker 1: Early in the season. I'm just sad Khalil came back. Man. 434 00:19:30,908 --> 00:19:32,268 Speaker 1: I thought he was out of the sus and now 435 00:19:32,308 --> 00:19:35,748 Speaker 1: he's back, getting sacks again, back and haunting him. Tomorrow 436 00:19:35,868 --> 00:19:38,268 Speaker 1: night cannot get here soon enough. This game is unbelievable. 437 00:19:38,388 --> 00:19:40,028 Speaker 1: But there's gotta be one thing that we're keeping an 438 00:19:40,068 --> 00:19:42,028 Speaker 1: eye on, in particular when the Chargers take on the 439 00:19:42,148 --> 00:19:44,908 Speaker 1: Chiefs on Thursday No football, Peter, what's tickling your fancy? 440 00:19:45,388 --> 00:19:48,468 Speaker 1: The Chiefs ended the Chargers season ultimately last year. I 441 00:19:48,508 --> 00:19:50,308 Speaker 1: know everyone looks at that Raiders game in the final 442 00:19:50,388 --> 00:19:53,188 Speaker 1: game of the season, but the Chargers were up twenty 443 00:19:53,228 --> 00:19:55,708 Speaker 1: one to thirteen late in the fourth quarter against the 444 00:19:55,788 --> 00:19:58,828 Speaker 1: Chiefs last season on Thursday Night Football when it was 445 00:19:58,868 --> 00:20:01,908 Speaker 1: back on Fox the NFL Network because December sixteen, and 446 00:20:02,108 --> 00:20:04,788 Speaker 1: Mahomes did what Mahomes does. He was masterful, found a 447 00:20:04,868 --> 00:20:08,548 Speaker 1: way to hit Kelsey and hit Tyreek Hill and they 448 00:20:08,628 --> 00:20:12,388 Speaker 1: go to overtime and in another amazing overtime drive, one 449 00:20:12,468 --> 00:20:15,468 Speaker 1: that has gotten forgotten because of the Divisional round overtime drive, 450 00:20:15,948 --> 00:20:18,948 Speaker 1: Mahomes did what he seems to always do when he 451 00:20:19,068 --> 00:20:21,828 Speaker 1: needs to, found a way to get the victory. The 452 00:20:21,948 --> 00:20:23,988 Speaker 1: Chargers win that game, they might win the AFC West, 453 00:20:24,148 --> 00:20:26,148 Speaker 1: they might be the one seed. They might they missed 454 00:20:26,148 --> 00:20:28,028 Speaker 1: the playoffs. This took the wind out of their sales. 455 00:20:28,068 --> 00:20:30,828 Speaker 1: They were up eight points late on the Vonta kans 456 00:20:30,828 --> 00:20:33,148 Speaker 1: City Chiefs after beating them in Narrowhead earlier in the season. 457 00:20:33,588 --> 00:20:36,548 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert's played incredible against the Chiefs every single time. 458 00:20:36,548 --> 00:20:38,948 Speaker 1: And he's played and remember his first career starter is 459 00:20:38,948 --> 00:20:40,268 Speaker 1: like one of those deals where like he came like 460 00:20:40,348 --> 00:20:42,868 Speaker 1: the undertaker because Tyrod had that issue before the game 461 00:20:42,948 --> 00:20:45,588 Speaker 1: and he was lights out. This is going to be 462 00:20:45,748 --> 00:20:48,708 Speaker 1: a quarterback matchup when it is so interesting because of 463 00:20:48,788 --> 00:20:51,508 Speaker 1: the defenses that they both employed. Both teams have added 464 00:20:51,588 --> 00:20:53,388 Speaker 1: so much on both sides of the ball. We're gonna 465 00:20:53,428 --> 00:20:54,868 Speaker 1: break this down all day tomorrow. I think we can 466 00:20:54,908 --> 00:20:56,908 Speaker 1: go ball off the rest of the show. But I'll 467 00:20:56,948 --> 00:20:58,948 Speaker 1: tell you this. Chargers, so they have that bite in 468 00:20:59,028 --> 00:21:01,108 Speaker 1: them that says, you know what, we get picked on 469 00:21:01,188 --> 00:21:03,748 Speaker 1: in the media. We're always the August hype team. We 470 00:21:03,908 --> 00:21:06,108 Speaker 1: just won in great fashion against the Raiders. No one 471 00:21:06,188 --> 00:21:08,468 Speaker 1: talking about us on Monday, and everyone just assumes that 472 00:21:08,468 --> 00:21:10,348 Speaker 1: we're gonna lose an Arrowhead. Did the Chargers have it 473 00:21:10,428 --> 00:21:11,628 Speaker 1: in them to say you know what, We're a new 474 00:21:11,668 --> 00:21:14,548 Speaker 1: different Chargers team, twenty twenty two Chargers. We don't lose 475 00:21:14,628 --> 00:21:15,948 Speaker 1: these games. We go out and we win these games. 476 00:21:15,988 --> 00:21:18,028 Speaker 1: Excited to see what version we get of the same 477 00:21:18,068 --> 00:21:20,148 Speaker 1: old LA Chargers or a different version that's ready to 478 00:21:20,188 --> 00:21:22,908 Speaker 1: go scorched earth. Exactly you said about the quarterbacks, justin 479 00:21:22,988 --> 00:21:26,388 Speaker 1: Herbert Patrick Mahomes. These guys are incredible overtime games that 480 00:21:26,508 --> 00:21:28,988 Speaker 1: are instant classics that we talk about. I want to 481 00:21:29,028 --> 00:21:32,228 Speaker 1: see what this Charges secondary is able to do. They 482 00:21:32,348 --> 00:21:36,188 Speaker 1: made plays versus the Raiders and two interceptions in the secondary, 483 00:21:36,388 --> 00:21:38,988 Speaker 1: and also Derwin James had a set. These guys were 484 00:21:39,108 --> 00:21:41,908 Speaker 1: all over the field and we watch what Patrick Mahomes 485 00:21:42,028 --> 00:21:44,788 Speaker 1: was able to do in Week one versus Arizona Cardinals. 486 00:21:44,868 --> 00:21:48,388 Speaker 1: If this Charger secondary doesn't make plays, good night, because 487 00:21:48,508 --> 00:21:51,788 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is going to pick them. Apart, he mentioned 488 00:21:51,868 --> 00:21:53,908 Speaker 1: j C. Jackson not sure if he'll be at the game, 489 00:21:53,948 --> 00:21:56,668 Speaker 1: but Asante Samuel Junior will be there. Mike Davis has 490 00:21:56,668 --> 00:21:59,468 Speaker 1: stepped up and j C. Jackson's absence and Bryce Callahan 491 00:21:59,508 --> 00:22:02,188 Speaker 1: who had an interception off Derek Carr. They did a 492 00:22:02,308 --> 00:22:05,428 Speaker 1: great job. We talk about Khalil Mack Joey Bolsa getting 493 00:22:05,468 --> 00:22:08,228 Speaker 1: after the quarterback. But these guys have to finish those 494 00:22:08,348 --> 00:22:10,508 Speaker 1: plays to give them a chance to win the game. 495 00:22:10,588 --> 00:22:13,708 Speaker 1: So I'm excited to watch that matchup, Durwin James going 496 00:22:13,748 --> 00:22:16,068 Speaker 1: against Travis Kelty, Like, these are the matchups do you 497 00:22:16,108 --> 00:22:17,788 Speaker 1: want to see as a dB guy, because I want 498 00:22:17,788 --> 00:22:20,228 Speaker 1: to see these guys slow down these offenses and bring 499 00:22:20,308 --> 00:22:22,708 Speaker 1: it back to some old school football whereas not forty 500 00:22:22,748 --> 00:22:24,828 Speaker 1: to forty two and all of these high scoring games. 501 00:22:24,908 --> 00:22:27,028 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean, look, Mahomes and Herbert aren't really 502 00:22:27,108 --> 00:22:29,388 Speaker 1: playing against each other, but Durwin and Kelsey, like, we'll 503 00:22:29,388 --> 00:22:30,988 Speaker 1: go at it, and I'm into it. But I'm also 504 00:22:31,068 --> 00:22:33,148 Speaker 1: just in for the pure theater this night of Patrick 505 00:22:33,228 --> 00:22:34,948 Speaker 1: Mahomes and what's going on here. We've seen him play 506 00:22:34,988 --> 00:22:37,788 Speaker 1: a lot of football. There was something slightly different in 507 00:22:37,868 --> 00:22:40,788 Speaker 1: Week one in his body language and his demeanor, like 508 00:22:41,348 --> 00:22:45,188 Speaker 1: he was out for blood against the helpless Arizona Cardinals 509 00:22:45,268 --> 00:22:48,028 Speaker 1: with which he has no ill will towards. He has 510 00:22:48,068 --> 00:22:50,428 Speaker 1: the relationship with Kingsbury, like he has this rivalry game 511 00:22:50,468 --> 00:22:53,268 Speaker 1: with the Cardinals. Now imagine the Chargers, because the context 512 00:22:53,348 --> 00:22:55,748 Speaker 1: here is like the Chargers are coming for his dinner. 513 00:22:55,908 --> 00:22:58,108 Speaker 1: They're coming for his house, They're coming for his bed, 514 00:22:58,188 --> 00:23:00,068 Speaker 1: They're coming for his TV and his remote. They want 515 00:23:00,108 --> 00:23:02,348 Speaker 1: to take it all from him. They're the one that's coming. 516 00:23:02,548 --> 00:23:05,228 Speaker 1: Denver already slipped up week one, the Raiders already lost 517 00:23:05,268 --> 00:23:06,908 Speaker 1: in the division. These are the ones. These are the 518 00:23:06,948 --> 00:23:11,068 Speaker 1: team that is specifically, piece by piece built to beat 519 00:23:11,148 --> 00:23:13,508 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes. That is what the Chargers doing. We got 520 00:23:13,588 --> 00:23:15,388 Speaker 1: to get the pass rushers, we need the safety, we 521 00:23:15,428 --> 00:23:17,788 Speaker 1: need the quarterback to beat fifteen. And if he was 522 00:23:17,948 --> 00:23:20,948 Speaker 1: that out for blood against the Cardinals, I feel like 523 00:23:21,068 --> 00:23:23,668 Speaker 1: this is going to be count the touchdown mode press 524 00:23:23,748 --> 00:23:27,548 Speaker 1: conference afterwards mode. Remember if Peter touchdown this against Justin Herbert. 525 00:23:27,588 --> 00:23:30,108 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, who beats everybody, is two and two, He 526 00:23:30,188 --> 00:23:33,308 Speaker 1: has a five hundred quarterback and both wins against Herbert 527 00:23:33,428 --> 00:23:36,108 Speaker 1: needed overtime to get there. So it's like we've been 528 00:23:36,188 --> 00:23:39,028 Speaker 1: waiting for this torch to be ripped from Kansas City 529 00:23:39,348 --> 00:23:41,748 Speaker 1: for about four or five years. These are the guys 530 00:23:41,788 --> 00:23:43,468 Speaker 1: that are built to do it, and nobody knows that 531 00:23:43,548 --> 00:23:45,508 Speaker 1: better than Patrick Mahomes. I feel like if he was 532 00:23:45,588 --> 00:23:48,268 Speaker 1: ready week one to go for blood, I feel like 533 00:23:48,428 --> 00:23:50,108 Speaker 1: we're going to see Patricks we have not seen and 534 00:23:50,388 --> 00:23:52,508 Speaker 1: he's hearing it. He's hearing about their secondary, he's hearing 535 00:23:52,548 --> 00:23:54,748 Speaker 1: about their pass rush, he's hearing about Herbert and Peter 536 00:23:54,828 --> 00:23:57,388 Speaker 1: says it all the time. Here's everything. I cannot wait 537 00:23:57,428 --> 00:23:59,148 Speaker 1: to watch him as a human being on the field 538 00:23:59,188 --> 00:24:01,228 Speaker 1: in this game. Here's what it is. And watching those 539 00:24:01,308 --> 00:24:04,508 Speaker 1: highlights over and over again, it's like he decides when 540 00:24:04,508 --> 00:24:06,308 Speaker 1: he wants to make it look easy. Like he's just 541 00:24:06,468 --> 00:24:08,628 Speaker 1: like this play, He's like, I mean I could just 542 00:24:08,748 --> 00:24:10,348 Speaker 1: come over the top and be a traditional guy, but 543 00:24:10,388 --> 00:24:12,188 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be like think, yeah, click, how do 544 00:24:12,228 --> 00:24:13,388 Speaker 1: you want me to make it look And I'll make 545 00:24:13,388 --> 00:24:15,788 Speaker 1: it look easy. It's unbelievable. He was a little frightening 546 00:24:15,828 --> 00:24:17,908 Speaker 1: to watch him, and sometimes it almost looks too easy 547 00:24:18,028 --> 00:24:20,148 Speaker 1: for Mahomes, Like sometimes he's like I got this, and 548 00:24:20,268 --> 00:24:22,508 Speaker 1: then you know, leaves an interception or maybe a loss. 549 00:24:22,508 --> 00:24:24,548 Speaker 1: I don't think that there's something about his walk too, 550 00:24:24,748 --> 00:24:26,548 Speaker 1: like a gate that he has and it's just this. 551 00:24:27,868 --> 00:24:29,548 Speaker 1: I'm excited to see both teams WI the come out. 552 00:24:29,548 --> 00:24:31,548 Speaker 1: What do you guess, Well, Jason was touching on the 553 00:24:31,628 --> 00:24:33,428 Speaker 1: charger secondary and I still have the straw that I 554 00:24:33,588 --> 00:24:35,828 Speaker 1: need to not be strong around anymore the secondary. But 555 00:24:35,868 --> 00:24:37,628 Speaker 1: I feel like you need an entire defensive unit to 556 00:24:37,668 --> 00:24:39,668 Speaker 1: take time past from home. So I see your secondary, 557 00:24:39,708 --> 00:24:42,788 Speaker 1: and I'm also gonna go Chargers front seven, specifically Khalil 558 00:24:42,908 --> 00:24:45,068 Speaker 1: mack and Bosa across the other side four and a 559 00:24:45,108 --> 00:24:48,388 Speaker 1: half sacks. They combined four in Week one, including this 560 00:24:48,548 --> 00:24:51,828 Speaker 1: one game ceiling strip sack of Derek Carr by Khalil Mackman. 561 00:24:52,108 --> 00:24:53,948 Speaker 1: He thought he was out of the AFC West, And 562 00:24:54,348 --> 00:24:56,548 Speaker 1: I feel like Mactor Holmes is like relishing in effect 563 00:24:56,588 --> 00:24:58,348 Speaker 1: that like, wait, I still get to go in thickly 564 00:24:58,388 --> 00:25:01,268 Speaker 1: against this guy. That's who Patrick Mahomes is. It's tremendous. 565 00:25:01,988 --> 00:25:05,428 Speaker 1: The only time we have really seen Aftrack Mahomes look 566 00:25:05,548 --> 00:25:08,868 Speaker 1: subhuman is when the Bucks pass Scott to him in 567 00:25:08,948 --> 00:25:11,868 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl again Stampa Sampa Bay. Like that's it. 568 00:25:12,148 --> 00:25:15,188 Speaker 1: And and if they can do that, maybe fifty percent 569 00:25:15,268 --> 00:25:18,228 Speaker 1: of that it'll be a good battle in the trenches. 570 00:25:18,268 --> 00:25:20,108 Speaker 1: But like, man, you gotta be careful, and it's got 571 00:25:20,188 --> 00:25:22,468 Speaker 1: to be every layer of the defense as to bother him. 572 00:25:22,548 --> 00:25:24,468 Speaker 1: It can't be the front set of Tevin. Just lets 573 00:25:24,548 --> 00:25:26,588 Speaker 1: him have time and just rely on the secondary because 574 00:25:26,628 --> 00:25:29,588 Speaker 1: we'll just thrash through you. It's unbelievable. Interesting note being 575 00:25:29,668 --> 00:25:32,308 Speaker 1: the first Thursday night game on Amazon, so we're gonna 576 00:25:32,348 --> 00:25:35,548 Speaker 1: find a like Al Michael's on the call Herb Street, like, 577 00:25:35,748 --> 00:25:38,508 Speaker 1: this is gonna feel big game. I would imagine there's 578 00:25:38,508 --> 00:25:40,668 Speaker 1: gonna be a big league presence at this game, first 579 00:25:40,708 --> 00:25:43,108 Speaker 1: time ever on Amazon Thursday Night football. And you get 580 00:25:43,268 --> 00:25:46,188 Speaker 1: Arrowhead under the lights in Mahomes and their pregame show 581 00:25:46,268 --> 00:25:49,028 Speaker 1: is there and they're on site on site. Yeah, this 582 00:25:49,188 --> 00:25:51,788 Speaker 1: is big. And there's seventies on the Chargers. If they win, 583 00:25:51,868 --> 00:25:54,028 Speaker 1: this game is going to be almost like they heat 584 00:25:54,068 --> 00:25:55,548 Speaker 1: this on the Bills right now, you know what I'm saying, 585 00:25:55,588 --> 00:25:58,188 Speaker 1: Like that's it's the division that would that would be 586 00:25:59,468 --> 00:26:03,508 Speaker 1: a great way to start the seasons. It's fantastic, all right. 587 00:26:03,548 --> 00:26:06,028 Speaker 1: We've got, like we said, a jam Pack show coming up, 588 00:26:06,108 --> 00:26:08,908 Speaker 1: a ton of guests coming to the breakfast table later on. 589 00:26:09,228 --> 00:26:13,348 Speaker 1: Plus we got some veteran leadership including the Colts guys 590 00:26:13,388 --> 00:26:17,028 Speaker 1: Stefan Gilmore, Gilly Gilly Gilly, how is he going to 591 00:26:17,068 --> 00:26:20,588 Speaker 1: find success in twenty twenty two and everything he's bringing 592 00:26:20,708 --> 00:26:24,508 Speaker 1: to the Indianapolis Colts.

Before 603 00:27:17,308 --> 00:27:19,628 Speaker 1: we get to that, though, I want to talk about 604 00:27:19,668 --> 00:27:23,188 Speaker 1: your younger brother, Steve and defensive back from Marshall. They 605 00:27:23,268 --> 00:27:26,028 Speaker 1: just had a huge upset being a Notre Dame which 606 00:27:26,068 --> 00:27:28,668 Speaker 1: he had a pick six. I was fired up to 607 00:27:28,708 --> 00:27:30,788 Speaker 1: see that. I know how much we've talked about it. 608 00:27:30,908 --> 00:27:34,188 Speaker 1: He has a game coming up this week on NFL 609 00:27:34,388 --> 00:27:38,148 Speaker 1: Network versus Bowling Green. What is that like? What are 610 00:27:38,188 --> 00:27:40,748 Speaker 1: you talking to him about? How excited is he about 611 00:27:40,788 --> 00:27:42,628 Speaker 1: this game? It's gonna be ready on NFL Network. I 612 00:27:42,748 --> 00:27:44,708 Speaker 1: told him just to you know, enjoy that win. You 613 00:27:44,788 --> 00:27:47,468 Speaker 1: know it's a big win obviously, But I told him, 614 00:27:47,588 --> 00:27:49,348 Speaker 1: you know, y'all can't go out there and beat Notre 615 00:27:49,428 --> 00:27:52,028 Speaker 1: Dame and then come back and lose the Boiling Green. 616 00:27:52,108 --> 00:27:55,028 Speaker 1: So I think I told him to have that short 617 00:27:55,188 --> 00:27:59,308 Speaker 1: term a short term memory and focus on the next game. 618 00:27:59,388 --> 00:28:02,028 Speaker 1: So hopefully they can keep that on the on the 619 00:28:02,148 --> 00:28:04,868 Speaker 1: goal and have a great season. Now, who will have 620 00:28:05,228 --> 00:28:09,028 Speaker 1: more pick sixes this season? The question you or Steven? 621 00:28:09,108 --> 00:28:10,788 Speaker 1: I want to know who has the most pick sixes? 622 00:28:11,108 --> 00:28:13,868 Speaker 1: Who has? Who will have this season? Who will have? 623 00:28:14,108 --> 00:28:19,348 Speaker 1: Will have? Oh? That's me, that's me, that's me for sure. 624 00:28:19,428 --> 00:28:21,228 Speaker 1: I can't let little Bro. I can't let little Bro 625 00:28:21,348 --> 00:28:23,148 Speaker 1: be me in that. I don't beat them all in 626 00:28:23,188 --> 00:28:28,028 Speaker 1: my life. I can't can't let him give me in that. Well, 627 00:28:28,188 --> 00:28:30,348 Speaker 1: Jason mentioned you guys had a tie in week one 628 00:28:30,388 --> 00:28:31,868 Speaker 1: and said we're not gonna go through all that. We're 629 00:28:31,868 --> 00:28:33,188 Speaker 1: gonna go through all We're gonna throw all of it 630 00:28:33,308 --> 00:28:35,868 Speaker 1: right now, you guys, Stefan, it was your first tie ever. 631 00:28:35,988 --> 00:28:37,988 Speaker 1: You never had to tie in the pros obviously, never 632 00:28:38,068 --> 00:28:40,508 Speaker 1: in college. Take us through this. You're on the field, 633 00:28:40,588 --> 00:28:43,028 Speaker 1: the Texans have the ball. It's an overtime they have 634 00:28:43,188 --> 00:28:46,228 Speaker 1: a fourth and three and they decide to punt. What 635 00:28:46,388 --> 00:28:48,268 Speaker 1: were you thinking during that moment? I was like, what 636 00:28:48,388 --> 00:28:50,548 Speaker 1: are they're doing? But I talked to like one of 637 00:28:50,628 --> 00:28:52,828 Speaker 1: my friends, you know, Brandon Cooks after the game. It 638 00:28:52,948 --> 00:28:55,268 Speaker 1: was like, you know, they rather take a tie in 639 00:28:55,788 --> 00:28:58,308 Speaker 1: any anything else. So I thought he was going to 640 00:28:58,348 --> 00:29:00,828 Speaker 1: go into double overtime. You know. I was just ready 641 00:29:00,868 --> 00:29:03,628 Speaker 1: to get back on the field and start them. So, 642 00:29:04,388 --> 00:29:06,828 Speaker 1: you know, that's my first time so now and now 643 00:29:06,988 --> 00:29:09,308 Speaker 1: I know the rules. It was a weird feeling to 644 00:29:09,388 --> 00:29:11,428 Speaker 1: have a time. Hopefully it help us at the end 645 00:29:11,428 --> 00:29:13,868 Speaker 1: of the season. Yeah. So some people say they like 646 00:29:13,908 --> 00:29:15,828 Speaker 1: the taste of victory. You do not like the taste 647 00:29:15,868 --> 00:29:18,348 Speaker 1: of a tie. Is that what you're telling us? I mean, 648 00:29:18,388 --> 00:29:22,908 Speaker 1: it's better than the loss. I would say that, It's true. 649 00:29:22,948 --> 00:29:25,388 Speaker 1: It's very bland, all right, we like that. So you're 650 00:29:25,388 --> 00:29:28,428 Speaker 1: in your eleventh NFL season, But you took your time 651 00:29:28,508 --> 00:29:31,268 Speaker 1: this offseason before you signed with the Colts. You are 652 00:29:31,348 --> 00:29:34,148 Speaker 1: a veteran, you have experience. You wanted to make sure 653 00:29:34,188 --> 00:29:36,868 Speaker 1: you went to the right fit. How have you gone 654 00:29:36,908 --> 00:29:39,388 Speaker 1: about your decision to sign with the coltson what's the 655 00:29:39,468 --> 00:29:41,228 Speaker 1: fit been like and everything? You thought it was going 656 00:29:41,268 --> 00:29:44,308 Speaker 1: to be. It's been great. You know, Coach Frank, you know, 657 00:29:44,468 --> 00:29:46,948 Speaker 1: he's been a great coach. Coach Gus playing in this 658 00:29:47,068 --> 00:29:50,748 Speaker 1: new scheme and I'm getting adjusted too. I think the 659 00:29:50,908 --> 00:29:54,628 Speaker 1: defense was already good before you know, I even got here. 660 00:29:54,708 --> 00:29:56,908 Speaker 1: So it was exciting to come on and you know, 661 00:29:57,068 --> 00:29:59,588 Speaker 1: play with these guys. And I think they was close 662 00:29:59,668 --> 00:30:02,228 Speaker 1: at the end of the season last year. So um, 663 00:30:02,308 --> 00:30:04,948 Speaker 1: I think with them adding me and me doing my 664 00:30:05,068 --> 00:30:07,388 Speaker 1: research on them, it was a no brainer for me 665 00:30:07,508 --> 00:30:08,988 Speaker 1: to come to the courts and try to help them 666 00:30:09,028 --> 00:30:13,308 Speaker 1: get over get over the top. Yeah, and look, Indianapolis 667 00:30:13,308 --> 00:30:15,748 Speaker 1: has always had a tough defense and they added a 668 00:30:15,828 --> 00:30:18,668 Speaker 1: bunch of new players this off season. It's you, It's 669 00:30:19,068 --> 00:30:22,188 Speaker 1: it's unique. And the rookie Nick Cross has looked good. 670 00:30:22,428 --> 00:30:24,908 Speaker 1: You look at this Colts team, you've been on champions before. 671 00:30:25,068 --> 00:30:26,948 Speaker 1: Do you have that juice that this team could be 672 00:30:26,988 --> 00:30:28,828 Speaker 1: one of those special ones that you've played on in 673 00:30:28,948 --> 00:30:31,028 Speaker 1: your in your career. I think we can be special. 674 00:30:31,188 --> 00:30:33,068 Speaker 1: You know, we got a good group of guys. You know, 675 00:30:34,028 --> 00:30:35,908 Speaker 1: a lot of brothers on this team. You know, they're 676 00:30:35,988 --> 00:30:38,988 Speaker 1: very competitive. We have a tough team. You know, we 677 00:30:39,028 --> 00:30:42,228 Speaker 1: can run the ball. We got good receivers, like you say, 678 00:30:42,268 --> 00:30:44,428 Speaker 1: our defense is pretty good. So I just think we 679 00:30:44,548 --> 00:30:48,148 Speaker 1: just got to keep jelling together and keep trusting each other, 680 00:30:48,228 --> 00:30:50,188 Speaker 1: and I'm very excited about where we can be in 681 00:30:50,228 --> 00:30:54,668 Speaker 1: the future.
