What's up, everybody? 3 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: Welcome to Move the Sticks? Presented by zax Beans. We 4 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: are back once again with our ten takeaway episode following 5 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,280 Speaker 1: UH real busy Week one of action in the National 6 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: Football League. Excited to have Rhet Lewis back with us. 7 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks here as well. Buck. First of all, just 8 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,159 Speaker 1: overall impression from the first full Sunday of football. A 9 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: lot of overreaction and a lot of over reaction for 10 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: what took place the first weekend. A lot of people 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: are really ready to either go to the Super Bowl 12 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: or are ready to throw in the towel. And I 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: think everyone needs to exhibit a little patience because we 14 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: didn't have a preseason. It will take a while for 15 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 1: the good team to separate from the others. You know, guys, 16 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,639 Speaker 1: I thought this was a fantastic opening salvo of the 17 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: personnel changing places this offseason, the premier personnel. Right, you 18 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: want to talk about Tom Brady going to Tampa and 19 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: you know, I mean you talk about frustration UH in 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: Week one against the Saints, and then meanwhile, Cam Newton's 21 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 1: all smiles in New England, right, and then you got 22 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: the other one of the other big moves, the trade. 23 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins has a career day for Arizona while the 24 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: Texans struggle a little bit without him. All of those 25 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: storylines this opening um kind of opening hit here of 26 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: those kind of things that are gonna play off for 27 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. I thought it was really interesting. Yeah, 28 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna get into these takeaways. Just a second big 29 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: picture for me. I think football on the on the 30 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: West coast looking pretty good right now. When you look 31 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: at the a f C West and the NFC West. 32 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: Mentioned the Cardinals, they were the big win over the Niners. 33 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: They like they're gonna be an exciting team. Russell Wilson 34 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: would be the m v P if we just had 35 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: one week of football. So that's the NFC West and 36 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: the f C West. We saw the Chiefs dominated on 37 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: Thursday night and then the Chargers and the Raiders both 38 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: get wins on the road. So the football on the 39 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: left coast is looking pretty good. But what is it. 40 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 1: Let's just let's just get into this thing here. Let's 41 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: jump into our first takeaway. I'll leave a stong off 42 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: for us, and let's start talking about the Charges. The 43 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: game that I was calling there the Chargers in the Bengals, 44 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: our first look at the number one overall pick, Joe Burrow, 45 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: and my takeaway from that game watching Burrow, the poise 46 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: is there. Just be patient, the playmaking will come for 47 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: the shotgun snap draw Hopkins with a great guy five 48 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: touchdown as Chill. Burrows first NFL touchdown comes on a 49 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: twenty three yard run on a beautifully called quarterback draw. Yeah. Look, 50 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: I thought Joe Burrow struggled in this game early. There's 51 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure. The offensive line is still a 52 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: work in progress there for the Bengals. Took a lot 53 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: of shots, especially from Joey Bosa in this ballgame, but 54 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: he hung in there, and I thought, you see the 55 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: touchdown Roun, You saw the athleticism on the quarterback draw. 56 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: Almost had a game winner to a J. Green at 57 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: the end was called back off offensive past interference penalty, 58 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: But buck I I just thought that the thing of 59 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: that last drive was what left me with a lot 60 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: of confidence. Joe Burrow is gonna be a good player 61 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,239 Speaker 1: in this league. First start getting a two minute drill 62 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: and methodically moving the ball down the field with good 63 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: accurate throws and excellent decision making. You know, DJ dasked 64 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: where I really was most impressed with him When he 65 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: got into the two minute drill. It was just like 66 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: he was back at L s U. A lot of command, 67 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: a lot of control, very decisive, very accurate, and we 68 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: saw the bois and we saw why everyone really and 69 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: really just loves him, not on the l s U, 70 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: but as Cincinnati. They believe they have a real quarterback, 71 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: and the franchise quarterback is supposed to give you hope. 72 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of hopeful people in 73 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: the Bengals organization and fans after watching Joe Burrow performed. 74 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how many more design runs 75 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: we're gonna see from Joe Burrow. I did not expect 76 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: to see his first touchdown as a pro and twenty 77 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: three r QB draw for a score, But look, he's 78 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: gonna need a little bit of that escapability, DJ. As 79 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: you saw firsthand that offensive line for the Bengals got 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: some work to do, even though they went up against 81 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: maybe one of the premier pass rush teams and all 82 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: the football in the Chargers. And I loved how Joe. 83 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: You know Joe Burrow leading up to this game and 84 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: really kind of this whole this whole year that he's 85 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: really been in the spotlight and said, I don't get nervous. 86 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: Do I ever seemed nervous to you? And really the 87 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: only time I saw him a little flustered in this 88 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: game was on that that shovel pass incident. But like 89 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned, yeah, I mean looking he has a tendency 90 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: to do that two quarterbacks around the league, right, um. 91 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: But the thing that I love, as you mentioned, was 92 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: the poise. I mean, he looked completely unfazed on that 93 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: final drive, and I think you've put in that kind 94 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 1: of situation again, He's gonna figure out a way to 95 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: get a win for his football team and not leaving 96 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: into the feat or the calf of a kicker, uh 97 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: to try and tie the game and prolong it. Yeah, 98 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: I was a terrible miss. H At the end of 99 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: that ball game, there was a couple of moments that 100 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: where they went empty and and Joe kind of wanted 101 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: to just sit back in the rocking chair like he 102 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: did an l s U. And he quickly realized, Okay, 103 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 1: this is not LSU's offensive line, and that is not 104 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: two lanes defensive line on the other side. It took 105 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: him a little bit to try and speed up his clock, 106 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: but then he got gone, all right, black, what's your 107 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: what's your first takeaway? Cam is all about the Patriot way. 108 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: Takes the right. Cam's gonna run it to the town 109 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: outside of the five. No in to the pylon. Got 110 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: it down Patriots. This second it is New England debut. 111 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: Former Georgia Bulldog TA captain David Andrews gets handed the 112 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: ball for the spike. That's why to smell a coal 113 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: on and get in and lower your shoulder. You know, 114 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: when you look at this combination on paper, you wondered 115 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: how it was going to work out. But Bill Belichick 116 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: and those guys continue to find a way to take 117 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: players and put them in the best situations to succeed. 118 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: You watched this offense. This offense looked nothing like the 119 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady offense. They ran the ball forty two times, 120 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: Cam at fifteen carries. In fact, they were doing things 121 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: that Cam used to do back in Auburn quarterback powers, 122 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: things where he's coming downhill, so so much for a 123 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: we're going to protect Cam. Cam was playing the way 124 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: that he always played, and I'll say this, I always 125 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: believe that Cam Newton would benefit from playing under joshman 126 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: Games and Bill Belichick because more attention to D tales 127 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: and better discipline. We saw a very efficient passive performance, 128 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: and as he continues to get comfortable in this system, 129 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: I think we will see him manage the game better. 130 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: And that is a scary proposition for upon having a 131 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: face to Patriots. Yeah, Red, I don't know about you, man, 132 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: but fifteen carries for Cam Newton as we go forward, 133 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,559 Speaker 1: that he was tackled ten or eleven times, and those carries, 134 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: so when you kind of juxtaposed the way he was 135 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: running versus Kyler Murray, who will get to Kyler Harley 136 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: only got tackled one time. He carried the ball thirteen times. 137 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: He got tugged down by his shirt lightly to the ground. 138 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: Cam Newton's dropping his shoulder on guys, and I just 139 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's gonna be sustainable. I love 140 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: the way they've established the physicality there at the line 141 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, and he was efficient as a passer. They're 142 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: gonna have to dial that back a little bit, in 143 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: my opinion. I mean, you look like iron head Heyward 144 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: down there by the goal line. I mean he was. 145 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: He was trying to truck guys and get into the 146 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: in zone. And I get it. I love watching Camp 147 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: play that way. I feel like that's when we get 148 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: that energy from him. That's when he's got that ear 149 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: to ear smile, that's when he's at his best. I wonder, 150 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: like you, how viable it is for a full sixteen 151 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 1: game and regular season and perhaps playoff appearance. Now, the 152 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: question that I'll have you know for you guys here 153 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: quickly is was this game plan for the Miami Dolphins 154 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: or is the QB power, the QB design runs for 155 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: Cam Newton going to be a staple of this offense 156 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,559 Speaker 1: because I do question the development of the past game 157 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: a little bit here. Uh you know, Bucky, when you 158 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: look at nikkil Harry five catches thirty nine yards, Julian 159 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: Edelman five catches under seventy yards, I mean, like, where 160 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: are the explosive play is going to come from when 161 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: they need it? Now? I think this is the way 162 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: the Patriots have to play because I think this is 163 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: the way that Cam plays best. We can talk about 164 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: what they try to do in Carolina transitioning him. He 165 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: asked he got more injuries and was hit more when 166 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: you're trying to be the pocket player. I think with 167 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: Cam Newton, especially if you're the Patriots, he's only one 168 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: year deal, I think you have to play him the 169 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: way that he has always played at his best, and 170 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: that is with him running the ball. The heavy dose 171 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: of Cam basically being a single wing quarterback. That is 172 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: when he's rob And I think in terms of the 173 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: explosive phase, the explosive plays come off lay act and 174 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: I saw the stat according to next Gen eight percent 175 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: of the plays were either runs or play action. That's 176 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: the Patriot's office. I think dead has to be the 177 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: offense going forward because of the talent that they have, 178 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: They're going to have to run the ball and really 179 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: lean on their defense to win games. All right, right, 180 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: what's your what's your takeaway here? What do we got? 181 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: All right? Takeaway number three taking you to Baltimore where 182 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: Week one was an m v P encore for Lamar Jackson. 183 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: Jackson looking to throw has great protection lops in the five. 184 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: It is called touchdown. Willie sneede at. Lamar Jackson has 185 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: delivered his third touchdown toss of the day. So to 186 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: those who wondered if Lamar Jackson could deliver the ball 187 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: down field, if he could stand tomp in the pocket 188 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: when it was collapsing, if he could hit the throws 189 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: outside the numbers. The answer isn't unequivocable. Yes, yes, and yes. 190 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: You know, guys with expectations absolutely sky high. For the 191 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: reigning m v P Lamar Jackson, I thought he stood 192 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: up and and even exceeded them. Uh, you know, in expectations. 193 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 1: The same for this Ravens team. I thought they exceeded that. 194 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: This game was never really in doubt against the Browns. 195 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the Ravens were in control of this game, 196 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: capitalized a couple of early turn members. But for Lamar, 197 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: he talked all this offseason about wanting to improve everything 198 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: in this game, with a special emphasis on the deep ball. 199 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: And you saw it right there. That deep ball to 200 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 1: Marque's Hollywood Brown was a thing of you. That was 201 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson ask dropping it in the bucket like that. 202 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: His connection with Mark Andrews the tight end is as 203 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: good a quarterback to pass catcher connection as there is 204 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: in football. They connected twice for touchdowns. According to the 205 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: next Gen stats on the deep ball in particular, I 206 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: thought this was interesting. DJ eleven of thirteen for a 207 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: hundred ninety four yards three TVs and a perfect passer 208 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: rating on throws that win ten plus yards in the air. 209 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: So even when the run game is not dominant, they 210 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: can rely on Lamar Jackson and his right arm to 211 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: get things done. It was interesting when when you watch 212 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: the tape buck because when I when I watched it, 213 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: they when they're rushing for playing with too high they 214 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: couldn't get home. And when they did get home, Lamar 215 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: was able to buy a little extra time and that's 216 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: when a lot of those plays developed down the field. 217 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: By the way, side, note, if you're gonna if you're 218 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: gonna put Mark's Brown in the slot and you're gonna 219 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: give him free access on your safety, you get absolutely 220 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: what you deserve with that. That is, there's no chance 221 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: that's gonna end well for your defense. But when they 222 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: when they rushed for, Lamar was patient back there. He 223 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: just sat back there waiting for things donecover if you 224 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: need to buy some time, he bought some time and 225 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: made plays down the field. I saw Cleveland gave him 226 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: just the tiniest bit of trouble when they started sending 227 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: some extra rushers at him. I know you kind of 228 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: want to be conservative because if you miss him, he 229 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: can gash you with his legs. But I thought they 230 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: really tried to sit back in this game, and Lamar 231 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: showed a lot of maturity to sit back there and 232 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: pick him apart. I think going forward, you play the Ravens, 233 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to try and heat him up a 234 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 1: little bit. You can't just sit back there like that, 235 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: you know, dj I, I agree with you, and I 236 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: think that is the flow game plan that you have 237 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: when you brace to Baltimore Ravens. They throw so much 238 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: at you. You have to deal with the powerful, physical 239 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: running game that they have with four running backs. J K. 240 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: Dobbins showed up had a touchdown. You have Lamar Jackson's 241 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: also a part of the running game doing quarterback read 242 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: options and all of the stuff that they do with him, 243 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,119 Speaker 1: and then the vertical passing game that they've unveiled. Hollywood 244 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: Brown Willie sneed those guys being able to really take 245 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: the top off the defense. They give you a lot 246 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: to think about, and you're right, I do not believe 247 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: you can sit back. You have to come after Lamar 248 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: Jackson you have to make him make quick decisions on 249 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: the fly. I think if you're sitting back, man, he's 250 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: just gonna carve your part. And he has shown over 251 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: time that he's a much better passer than we have 252 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: given him credit for, and he's continued to improve in 253 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: that phase. We got the rookie two tons tons of tubs. 254 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: I still don't know which one it is, Bucky, but 255 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: we got j K. Dobbins into the pain twice. J K. 256 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: Dobbins putting in the end zone. Yes, yes, yes, they 257 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: got it go. And I know what my little many 258 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: takeaway off of that was, Man, I'm already I'm already 259 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: Jones into give me some Kansas City Chiefs in Baltimore, Raven. 260 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: I want to see that right now. Based off what 261 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: those two offenses look like early in the season. Well, 262 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: it's fun to watch Sunday night football and watch the 263 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Ramps open up that beautiful new stadium against 264 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. Actually ended up being a very entertaining 265 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: game as well. I wish you could have some fans 266 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: and they really get that energy cranked up. But nonetheless, 267 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 1: it was fun football and and my biggest takeaway from 268 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: that game Aaron Donald is a bad man. Prescott sits 269 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: in the pocket, has to bring it down. He's hit, 270 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: he's wrapped up. He's sacked. Back in Dallas territory. Aaron 271 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: Donald with his first of the new season and his 272 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: first career sack against the Cowboys. If you don't get 273 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: the ball out on that third step of that fit step, 274 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald will be in your face. I don't know 275 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: what analogy we would use, you know, Buck, we have 276 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: a lot of those, uh you know those scouting phrases, 277 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 1: bowling ball of butcher knives, uh bowl and a china shop. 278 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: I don't know what we want to use for Aaron 279 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: Donald that game, but disruptive from start to finish, run pass, 280 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: it did not matter. He's just he's so unusual to 281 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: see somebody with that type of leverage and explosiveness. This 282 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: is a good front that he went up against. These 283 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: are these are all pro players, and you've got one 284 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,599 Speaker 1: of the best past protecting backs in national football and 285 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 1: he's throwing them around like our little kids in this game. Uh. 286 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: Just when you think you couldn't be more impressed with 287 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald, you see a showcase game like this one. 288 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 1: Bucky and he just he blows me away, look at me. 289 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: He is very impressive. And I was very impressed with 290 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: the Rams defense. You just didn't know what Brandon Stated 291 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: was going to do because he's stepping in big shoes. 292 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 1: Wade Phillips is look one of the best to ever 293 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,359 Speaker 1: do it on the defense of the ball. As a coordinator, 294 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 1: he steps in and I would say the first thing 295 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: that stood out to me they were far more diverse 296 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: in their coverage with Aaron Donald being able to rush upfront. 297 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: We saw them jump into some too deep coverage. We 298 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: saw them use some trap cover so Jalen Ramsey could 299 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: get some big shots on wide receivers. We saw the 300 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: overall tenor of this team a more physical unit, not 301 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: only on defense but on offense. And so look, we've 302 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: kind of dismissed the Rams having opportunity to kind of 303 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: climb the ranks in NFC West, but the team that 304 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: showed up on Sunday Night is certainly good enough to 305 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: go toe to toe when the other content is in 306 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: the division. Yeah, and as you alluded to at the 307 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,959 Speaker 1: beginning there, DJ, this is not against any slaunch of 308 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: an offensive line. I mean he goes up against regularly 309 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: in that game. Maybe the premier guard in football in 310 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: Zack Martin right there, and I thought he got the 311 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: best of him for a good portion of this game. 312 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he rushed the past her thirty five times, 313 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: generated legitimate pressure ten times out of thirty five. I 314 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: mean that's a phenomenal pressure rate for an interior defensive women. 315 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: I mean Floyd coming off the edge couldn't get half that. 316 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: He still got a sack. So it was kind of 317 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: interesting to see that little tandem perhaps emerged for the Rams. 318 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: But I mean, Aaron Donald, it's clear can still take 319 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: over a football game when he wants, and he did 320 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: on Sunday night, and a lot of that criticism floating 321 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: around on on Twitter as well, which is ridiculous to me. 322 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: When you're well, a lot of downs your third and ten, 323 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: plus you have protection issues which were documented by watching 324 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 1: what Aaron Donald did. And Jalen Ramsey just mugged Mark 325 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: Cooper now you can just call it the most physical 326 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: coverage they let him play until ironically the end of 327 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: the game where they where they let uh you know, 328 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: through the offensive pastor interference penalty. But they just mugged 329 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: those wide receivers. Bucky that to me, looked like the 330 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: way they were playing covered look like the old school 331 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: Patriots against the Colts that we used to see that 332 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: type of physicality there on the edge. Yeah. No, it's 333 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: kind of funny, right, because this is a tale of 334 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: two offenses. When you look at the Rams, it is 335 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: all sizzle and sexy and moving and Mr direction and 336 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: all those things, and the Dallas had just a very straightforward, 337 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: basic offense and they just basically overwhelm you with their talent. 338 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: The problem is when you get to these long yarder situations, 339 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: you have an undrafted free agent Interior Steel playing at 340 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: right tackle. They were isolating him by putting three defensive 341 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: linement on the other side, forced in the offensive line 342 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: to slide that way and make Interror Steel deal with 343 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: whoever they had on this. It could be Leonard Floyd, 344 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: it could be whoever they wanted, and he was having 345 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: a tough time dealing with the fastball, particularly late. This 346 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: Dallas team is talented, but their offensive line is an 347 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: Achilles hill, and we need to change the narrative about 348 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: this being one of the best offensive lines. They aren't 349 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: what we thought they were. This is not the unit 350 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: that really took the field a couple of years ago, 351 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: right without trying. Yeah, absolutely, all right, Buck, What's what's 352 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: take away number five? Hey, So with the Washington football team, 353 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: grit matters. Second at going from the three, they hand 354 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: off here to Payton Barber with time, Yes, touchdown, touchdown Washington, 355 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: and this Washington team is excited. Guys, Come on, this 356 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: is what we're talking about. You know when when we 357 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: looked at this team and you look at him on 358 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: paper offensively, you're like, man, I don't know if they 359 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: have enough talent to win games. But when you flip 360 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: over the defense and you see the tough minded crew 361 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: that Dave assembled up front, they can dominate. And I 362 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: think what we saw us that star set at front 363 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: line took over and their toughness overwhelmed the Philadelphia Eagles. 364 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 1: A sacks from these guys up front. Ryank Harrigan head 365 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: to Chase Young had one and a half and then 366 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: they just got after it. DJ you tweeted out about 367 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,239 Speaker 1: just the game playing deject del Rio half of this 368 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: front line. If they're able to continue to get this effort, 369 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: this is a team that may win eight or nine 370 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 1: games just on the way they do defense plays. Because 371 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 1: this defensive top nuts, particularly in the trenches. It looked 372 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 1: like those old Carolina defenses, Bucky you're familiar with, and 373 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: and watching the front get after it, watching a secondary 374 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: that plays with eyes on the quarterback at all times, 375 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,199 Speaker 1: a lot of bail coverage. But then you saw Carson 376 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: Wentz get locked on. They can put their foot in 377 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: the ground, drive on it, and make plays down the field. 378 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 1: But I thought this was this was a major miscalculation 379 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: by the Philadelphia Eagles. They had no Lane Johnson in 380 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: this game. You have no Brooks in this game, one 381 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: of the best guards in all of footballs. You're missing 382 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: to all pros. You've got some speed that you've got 383 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: in the draft with Jalen Reagor and high tower, you 384 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: getting Sean Jackson healthy, And it looked like they just 385 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: wanted to go out there and play with all these 386 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: new toys and really push the ball vertically down the field. 387 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 1: They can't protect to be able to take those shots. 388 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: And even when they did have some opportunities, went missed 389 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: some throws down the field as well. So, uh, they've 390 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: got to go back to the drawing board a little bit. 391 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 1: They've got to get their running game going. They've got 392 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: to get Miles Sanders healthy. But again, you're right, Buck, 393 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: I would tip my cap to Jack del Rio, to 394 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: Ron Rivera. Uh that was that was a physical, physical 395 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: football team we saw from Washington and that one it was. 396 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 1: It was an impressive win for them over the Eagles. 397 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: All right, Right, what's your next takeaway? Yeah, takeaway six 398 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: is gonna take us to the NFC North where you 399 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: should not doubt Aaron Rodgers. Three receivers right, one of 400 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: theft from the shotgun. Second at ten, snamp a rod 401 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: going deep down the right sidelines. NBS has it for 402 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: the tech stop. What a play. He took it away 403 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: from Cam and Dancer mark like yard touchdown reception. Alright, guys, 404 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: so let's go back to April, because I don't know 405 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 1: how seriously everybody out there Packers fans really took the 406 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: Packers motives in trading up for Jordan's love and selecting 407 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: him the quarterback from Utah State in the first round. 408 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: Though you've got Aaron Rodgers still, you know, in the 409 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: prime of his career here, So I don't I don't 410 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: know how much I buy into the whole Rodgers is 411 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: gonna play with the chip on his shoulder and he's 412 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: gonna play on fire like his left packle David Botr 413 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: said moments after the pick. Must we forget the guys 414 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: just really flipping good like He's a generational talent at quarterback, 415 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: and he showed you why on Sunday. I mean the 416 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: throws that he was making. These are the those tight 417 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: window throws, those um improbable completion percentage strows. In fact, 418 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: next Jan strats, nextion STA's tracks. This now uh hit 419 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: a yar TV passed to Davante Adams. Completion probability forty 420 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 1: yard completions. Adams in the fourth quarter, completion probability four percent. 421 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy makes difficult throws look easy, and 422 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: let's not forget about it now. It certainly helps when 423 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: you're only hit twice the entire game. Vikings had no 424 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: pass rush for him, and he was able to shred 425 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 1: a couple of corners you know, Holton Hill out there 426 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: and then also my hues out there, I mean Davante Adams. Guys. 427 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 1: He had a passer rating on one forty four when 428 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: he was targeting Davonte Adams. And by the way, it was, 429 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: it was a very large sample size. Seventeen targets on 430 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 1: the day. Okay, So it's not like you just targeted 431 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: him four times. Um, He's just he is an unbelievable quarterback. 432 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: And I think we should have expected more of this 433 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: in year two now with Matt Lafleur and placing a 434 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: little bit more of an emphasis on the aerial attack. Tato, 435 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: You know, red is funny because I feel like we 436 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: should issue some apologies to Brian Gunicus because so much 437 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: of the outrage with the Packers not taking joy and 438 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: love in the first round had to do with them 439 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: not taking a wide receiver, and maybe, just maybe the 440 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers felt like their guys were going to develop. 441 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: So Davantae Adams as the table center, he's obviously the 442 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: number one, but we saw m vs make some plays, 443 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 1: Marquis Baldisk Gantling make some plays and get down the field. 444 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 1: We saw Aaron Rodgers throw it to other guys and 445 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,479 Speaker 1: allow those guys to make plays. And so as you're 446 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: developing the chemistry with these young wire receivers, maybe, just 447 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: maybe they felt like these guys were going to take 448 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: a step forward, and based on how they played against 449 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings, those young receivers certainly stepped up with 450 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: Davante Adams certainly leading the way. I was just thinking 451 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: as we kind of wrap up this takeaway, it reminded 452 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 1: me of kind of an open gym where the one 453 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: guy walks in and you've got people trying to congregate 454 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: and assemble their teams, and the one guy just just 455 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: give me four dudes. Man, I'm gonna go out here 456 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 1: and just run this court real quick, doesn't matter who 457 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: I have. Uh. That was Aaron Rodgers in this game. 458 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 1: But I thought Rhet nailed it when he was talking 459 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: about the fact that no pressure Aaron Rodgers as a 460 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: seven on seventh throw with no pressure, there's nobody better. 461 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna sit back and pick you apart 462 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: exactly what he did in this football game. So you 463 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: got to be encouraged. If you're the Great A Packers, 464 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:06,919 Speaker 1: you gotta be a little discouraged with the lack of 465 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 1: pass rush. If you're the Minnesota Vikings, Everson Griffin, Uh 466 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: no longer there. Where is that pass rush going to 467 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: come from. So that's gonna be a big, big challenge 468 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,360 Speaker 1: for that team. They need to get healthy up front, 469 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: some other injuries as well. All right, next takeaway from 470 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: Me's keep it on the quarterback theme here, Josh Allen 471 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 1: uh still running the show. It's a play fake Alan, 472 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: He's got a wide open lane and I've got a 473 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: lot of touchdown. Great play action fake by Josh Allen, 474 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: extending that ball so that all the addes could see 475 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: he's about to give it off. He pulls it back in, 476 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: goes the opposite direction. Nobody there to touch him. Now, 477 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: this is a Buffalo Bill's team that beat up the 478 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: New York Jets really on both sides of the line 479 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, and that physicality also comes from the quarterback position, 480 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 1: which is what's unique about their offense. I thought we 481 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: might see Josh Allen try and dial some of that back. 482 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: Did not happen. He was very aggressive as a runner, 483 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: but still through for over three hundred yards. I thought 484 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: he did a nice job of taking what was there, 485 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: but being selectively aggressive when he had opportunities. But Bucky, 486 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 1: they're not They're not gonna be able to rain him 487 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 1: in as a runner. Thankfully, he's so big and so 488 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: strong and so sturdy he's been able to hold up. 489 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 1: But man, it is a it is an aggressive brand 490 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: of football. The way Josh Allen plays it at the 491 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: quarterback position. He's early plays in a very aggressive style. 492 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: And I've said this, um, I believe that Sean McDermott 493 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: and Brandon Being and those guys like Josh Allen because 494 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: he could certainly do to a lesser degree some of 495 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: the stuff that Kim Newton did. When the Carolina Panthers 496 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl, they saw that offense has success. 497 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: I think they've replicated it to a degree in Buffalo. 498 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: And Josh Allen is what he is as a quarterback. 499 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 1: He's a guy that is a streaky passer when it 500 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: comes to his accuracy, but he makes up with it, 501 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: makes up for with this running ability in his overall 502 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: physicality and toughness. I think that endears into his teammates, 503 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: but it also puts defensive coordinators in the body. You 504 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 1: have to defend the quarterback run game when you're dealing 505 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: with the Buffalo Bills, and that is one of the 506 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: reasons why sometimes we see these wide receivers run free 507 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: because everyone is really in a dilemma when it comes 508 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: to defending this offense. Yeah, another takeaway from this game 509 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: to Mario Addison, some of these players on this Buffalo 510 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: defense and you don't hear a lot about man. They 511 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: have got so many good, solid players that play hard 512 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: and they're productive. He was one that jumped off the 513 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: tape to me when I watched him, just a very 514 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: competitive player coming off the edge. And then I thought, man, 515 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: the other take away from that game, Sam Donald, was terrible. 516 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: They could not get anything going offensively for the Jets. 517 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: They didn't get separation down the field. They have no 518 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: speed in the backfield. Um. It was a rough showing 519 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 1: there for the Jets. And oh lucky them. They get 520 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: the Niners next week, who are gonna be a little bit, 521 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: a little bit upset coming off their loss of the 522 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. Not a great start for the Jets. All right, Buck, 523 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: what's your next one? There? You got one in the 524 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: a f C South Force. Yeah, in Jacksonville, youth is 525 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: served play bank Mince You looks fires part of the 526 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: end zone, wide open Dealen Cole is gonna walk into 527 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: the end zone, touchdown Jacksonville and the Jets. I'm taking 528 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: the league with five to play in the ball game 529 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 1: by the offense. Great response, You know, DJ, It's funny 530 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: because you never know when you don't have preseason you 531 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,239 Speaker 1: can't see these teams played before. You just don't know. 532 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: And so when the reports came out that Jacksonville has 533 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: six teen rookies on their opening day ross, You're like, 534 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: how are they ever going to compete? And here's what 535 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you. They played hard, man. They played 536 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: hard from beginning to end, did a great job of 537 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: giving the energy and effort that Doug Moron wanted. Gardner 538 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: minsh you was on fire. Uh. This game plan that 539 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: j Gruten had a lot of screens, a lot of sidelines, 540 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: sideline stuff. It was almost as different I was watching 541 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: minsh you back at Wazoo. And then the young guys 542 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: that they played. Two starters that stood out. C. J. 543 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: Henderson was terrific and Coverage had three PPUs also had 544 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: an interception. And then the undrafted free agent they had 545 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: in running back James Robinson stepped up ninety Scrimma jars 546 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: on seventeen touches. Because of their young guys being able 547 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: to step up, they knocked off a team that we're 548 00:25:58,359 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 1: talking about being one of the top teams in the 549 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: a f C. I just didn't see this. Hass off 550 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: to Doug Moroll for getting these young guys to play 551 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: so hard. Rhett, I'd love to get your thought on that, 552 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: because watching that game, man, you kind of got the 553 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: full Philip Rivers experience. On the other side as well, 554 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,719 Speaker 1: you got the three plus yards, a bunch of big plays, 555 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: but then you had those two throws. You just you 556 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: can't have those mistakes. Well, And I was talking to 557 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: Ludanian Tomlinton about it on Game Day Live yesterday, you know, 558 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: his former teammate Philip Rivers when they were together with 559 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: the Chargers, and I was like, well, this is kind 560 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: of why the Chargers were okay, letting Philip Rivers move on, 561 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: because yes, while he will put up some numbers and 562 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: put up some points and put up some yards, it's 563 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: the turnovers that you can't live with. Now they went 564 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 1: down there that first drive, I was like, all right, 565 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: this familiarity with Sirianni, with Frank Wright, really he's gonna 566 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: pay off. I mean, like this, that first drive was 567 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: perfectly executed. Naim Hines had kind of become the forgotten 568 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,959 Speaker 1: man in this offense with Marlon Mack and Jonathan Taylor. 569 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: We didn't even hear from Jonathan Taylor until Marlon Mack 570 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: got hurt with the ruptured Achilles. That's terrible news, by 571 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: the way, But now that they got Taylor and name behinds, 572 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: I don't think that we've heard the last of the 573 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. I think if Philip can find a way 574 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: to just pull back a little bit. I know that's 575 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: not in his DNA. Uh. DJ you know that as 576 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 1: well as anybody. Um. But the other thing I thought 577 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: was funny on the Jag side of things was was 578 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: watching Gardner Minshew. You know after the game. You know, 579 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,919 Speaker 1: this guy just lives for every moment. I love. I 580 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: love how passionate he is. I love his energy. Uh 581 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: And then he said, you know, after watching James Robinson hurdle, 582 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: I forget who it was on defense and then run 583 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 1: for about twenty five yards on that reception, he said, 584 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: he turned and looked to his right tackle, John Taylor. 585 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: He's like, who is this guy? I mean, like, literally, 586 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: we didn't know, you know, Like I get it, Gardner, 587 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: I think we didn't know. Like they cut letter for net, 588 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: You're like, all right, who's running the ball for this team? Well, 589 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: look they're figuring out a way to do it. Also, 590 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: Labisco Chanal, I thought he was pretty impressive. As well 591 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: in his debut. Yeah, Buck, you know they've got a 592 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: lot of speed, a lot of speed on that Jaguar 593 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 1: team both sides of the ball. Young, inexperience, but man, 594 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: what a right start for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Well, we 595 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: mentioned it during the off season when we were talking 596 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,880 Speaker 1: about the Arizona Cardinals. Bucky and myself. I don't know, rhet, 597 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: you have an opportunity here before we get to this takeaway, 598 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: you can join the move the sticks pinky promise, which 599 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: is the fact that we are all in on the 600 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,879 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals. We're not bailing on him. They're going to 601 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: the post season. We were on them before the season started. 602 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: You put your pinky up there. That means you're in 603 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: and and one dimensions. Uh. One of the reasons we're 604 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,199 Speaker 1: feeling good today is not just because we had a 605 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: great Sunday of football, is because the pinky promise thus 606 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 1: far is looking good. Snap to Murray, straight, drop back 607 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: with time, throw us to the right wide open. Hopkins 608 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: caught it that twenty fart sight ted five and he's 609 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: hit at the one. Welcome to the Valley, Nuke. DeAndre 610 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: Hopkins just fourteen tens of the day. I had an 611 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: executive inside the NFC West after I posted some Kyler 612 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: Murray runs this morning on Twitter. Uh, he called me 613 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: and said, please don't post anymore those. You're giving me 614 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: nightmares having to watch this guy run around out And 615 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: he brought up a great point. It's like watching Russell 616 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: Wilson and fast forward that that's what it looks like. 617 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: He's a He's a faster, more dynamic, more explosive Russell 618 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: Wilson as a runner. He does a great job protecting 619 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: himself as well, doesn't take any shots. And now you've 620 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: got a legitimate number one wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Buck 621 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: We we mentioned the fact we were on this team, 622 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: and I think Kyler was a big part of that Hopkins. 623 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: But then you also have a defense with some with 624 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: some playmakers on that side of the ball as well. Yeah, 625 00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: the defense stood up. You know, we've seen the San 626 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: Francisco forty nine is running game give opponents problems, but 627 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: they didn't. They couldn't get their way up front. The 628 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals were able to kind of impose their will. 629 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: They're able to keep the running game contained and that 630 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: in turn put the game on Jimmy Garoppolo shoulders, and 631 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: I think anybody who is facing the forty nine is 632 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: that's what you want. You want to have to make 633 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo make plays when everyone in the stadium knows 634 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: he has to make those plays, and he wasn't able 635 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: to do it. But to go back to your point 636 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: about Cala Murray, Cala Murray is so dangerous because he 637 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: that Pat mahomes like feel in terms of his arm talent, 638 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: but he is more dynamic as a runner and playmaker. 639 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: And then you pointed out, because you said this on Twitter, 640 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: of those with thirteen runs, twelve of those he didn't 641 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: get touched. He was either able to slide or score 642 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: or get out of bounds. His baseball ability and his 643 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: awareness knowing what's going on around him, that's what makes 644 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: him dangerous because he doesn't put himself in harm's way. Yeah, 645 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: you know the thing that I took away from this 646 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: and watching Kyler because I was I was caught up 647 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: watching the Bucks in the Saints and the Bengals and 648 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: the Chargers a lot during this uh this afternoon windows. 649 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: So going back and watching DJ's Instagram feed, that's that 650 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: next gear, that top gear that he hit on the 651 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: touchdown run at the very end. I don't know that 652 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: I've seen anything like it. Um, you know, DJ that 653 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 1: that next gear that he I don't know that there 654 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: are people out there, there are players out there that 655 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 1: have that ability. I think it was the ward that 656 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: was chasing him down there towards the goal line, and 657 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: I mean he just he had five yards of separation 658 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: like that, And what does it say about his West Division? 659 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: Go ahead? No, I was gonna say it looked like 660 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: Derrick Ross. I mean, just like it's just stupid explosiveness. 661 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: I mean to have He's he's running, he has to 662 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: come almost to a dead stop. He's got a defender 663 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: chasing him at full speed. He looks out of the 664 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: corner of his eyes season for account, and then boom, 665 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: he immediately separates like four yards. It's just it was 666 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: freaky to watch his acceleration there. So what does it 667 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: say about the NFC West that the last place team 668 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: in the division just knocked off the defending NFC champions. 669 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: What does that say about the competitive Well, buck, I 670 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: want to get the buck on that. I want to 671 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: get the buck on that, because last year we forget 672 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals played the Niners tougher than anybody last year. 673 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: Played him twice, played him tough, could have beat him twice. 674 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: So I don't know that this should be a big 675 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: surprise to anybody. This is a team that is very 676 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: dangerous as they start figuring things out under Cliff Kingsbury 677 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: and year two Buck this is a team. I'm telling me, man, 678 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: this is a scary group, very scary group. Just love 679 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: the way they're putting together. Glive of Cliff Kingsbury credit 680 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: because he has certainly adapted and adjusted to the NFL game. 681 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: We're seeing a little more balanced Kenyan Drake is the 682 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: perfect running back for what they want to do. And 683 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: then defensively, all odds were on advanced Joseph. What's he 684 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: going to do to a defense that was very disappointing 685 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: a year ago. This defense has stood up. I like 686 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 1: the way they're deploying their major playmakers, Isaiah sim As, 687 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: you can see him in acting, Peter Baker, Patrick Peterson, 688 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: Chandler Jones. They have enough to give people problems. And 689 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: as long as Kylin Murray is able to get this 690 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: offense going up and down the field, man, they're gonna 691 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: play a bunch of shooters and they canna win a 692 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: ton of games. A DJ One last thing before I 693 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: get to this last takeaway here, on a positive note 694 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 1: for the forty Niners, how great was it to see 695 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: Jared McKinnon get into the end zone after not playing 696 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: a snap the last two years. That's awesome, that was awesome. 697 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 1: Hats off to him for for just showing that stick 698 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: tuativeness and that work ethic to get himself back and 699 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: ready and get on NFL field. An accomplishment for him. 700 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: Easy to root for, Easy to root for that guy. 701 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: How about the final takeaway the day here, right, what 702 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: do you have? Well, okay, here we go. The Atlanta 703 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: Falcons are the best onside kick football team in the NFL. 704 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: On side kick attempt to the far side, Falcons have it. 705 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: The Falcons execute the onside kick brilliantly. Now you can't 706 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: advance but on side kick, but it was con in 707 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: stride by foy Alicon and a beautifully executed on side 708 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: kick gives the Falcons the ball back. So look, guys, 709 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: look and you know, let me just give you the 710 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: numbers here. Okay, the Falcons on side kick that they 711 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: werecovered here against the Seahawks as their third since two 712 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 1: thousand and eighteen. That's the most by any team since 713 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: the rule restricting player movement ahead of the actual ball 714 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: being kicked off the tea a couple of years ago 715 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: went into place. Their three for ten when a tipping 716 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: onside kicks. That's like Hall of Fame batting average numbers here. Okay, 717 00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 1: if we're talking baseball. Um, So the problem is you 718 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: don't want to be that good at the on side kicks. 719 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: You don't want to have to attempt them that many times. 720 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: But that's the case the Falcons have been in especially 721 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 1: early part of last season. They trailed from the jump 722 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 1: in this game gear against the Seahawks and felt like 723 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 1: they were in desperation mood, desperation mode early, and that 724 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: of course is because of the game plan that Brian 725 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 1: Schottenheimer put into place with the Seahawks, where you know, 726 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: they they came out firing in the past game, which 727 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: surprised me a little bit. You know, they kind of 728 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,479 Speaker 1: made a name for themselves running the football, especially last year. 729 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 1: You know with Chris Carson and company. He caught two 730 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 1: touchdown passes in this game early and then Russell Wilson 731 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 1: just absolutely magnificent again with the deep ball, you know 732 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: DK metcalf, but I thought overall, the Seahawks offense just 733 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: absolutely overpowered this Falcons team. Then again, you know, Bucky 734 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: has too much talent to be sitting here and kind 735 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: of getting blown out at home in Week one of 736 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: this season. Yeah, this is a tough one, right. This 737 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: un tell them for Atlanta Falcons fans because you're excited 738 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: about all of the talent that they had on offense, 739 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 1: but then you look up, Matt Ryan has fifty four 740 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,280 Speaker 1: pass attempts. That is not a game plan that's conducive 741 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: to them winning, particularly against high end teams. They never 742 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: could get control of the game because defensively they couldn't 743 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: slow down the Seahawks. And then we talked about Russell 744 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: Wilson and Russell Wilson being magnificent thirty one for thirty 745 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: five over three hundred yards. There's a movement and a 746 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: faction of fans, the twelves that have been begging and 747 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 1: clamoring for Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer to let rust 748 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: cook where they let Russey cook on Sunday and they 749 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: got off to a fast start. I think you can 750 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: see Russell Wilson and the kits and a little more, uh, 751 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: whipping up some nice dishes as the Seahawks go for Well, 752 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: the chef. The chef there had four in completions and 753 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,720 Speaker 1: four touchdowns. So when those are numbers equal, I definitely 754 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: think you need to invest some more money in the 755 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: kitchen and uh and let rust cook to put it. 756 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: To put it, Miley, there absolutely dessert in there. Why 757 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: not in DJ for the Falcons, like, look, they had 758 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 1: more first downs, more passing yards, more total yards, more 759 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: offensive play, hire third down conversion rate, only one real 760 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: turnover in this game, and yet they trailed virtually the 761 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: whole time. That's just you can't have those days. You 762 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: can't keep having these things for the Falcons where they 763 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: have to come back, both in the landscape of the 764 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,359 Speaker 1: game and in the entire season. Like we saw you. Well, 765 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 1: they've tried to invest year after year, They've tried to 766 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: invest in the past Russian and coverage, and year after year, 767 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 1: those same issues and those same works keep showing. So hey, 768 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: look it's it's week one. That's the good news. It's 769 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 1: week one. H don't don't overreact if you if you're 770 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: a fan of any of these teams that lost. To 771 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: be patient. It's a long season, so a lot of football, 772 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: a lot of great football. We had at the opportunity 773 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 1: to watch on Sunday, a couple more games coming up 774 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: on Monday.
