Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in
Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Good Morning Football.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 4: Let's specifically talk about some football and the Combine. Welcome
Speaker 4: in Psycho Bonnie Football. Everybody, You're live in LA and Indianapolis.
Speaker 4: This morning is Wednesday, February twenty six. Jamie Arnall Mansi TEO,
Speaker 4: Peter Schrager looking like his great Combine self, and Indy
Speaker 4: and Cody Kessler continues to be at the table all
Speaker 4: week long. Peter Schreger to be joined by Tom Pellisero
Speaker 4: because a ton of prospects are beginning to arrive in
Speaker 4: Indie and it is a true car wash there. It's workouts,
Speaker 4: it's measurements, it's the body inspection, it's meetings with teams.
Speaker 4: The quarterbacks have begun to descend upon those hallways. You
Speaker 4: got roommates that you've competed against, and now you're all
Speaker 4: buying for a spot in the NFL Draft at the
Speaker 4: end of April. But this is where this process begins.
Speaker 4: Those guys will work out on Saturday, but all this
Speaker 4: takes off on Thursday.
Speaker 3: Let's stick with that position group though.
Speaker 4: Peter and Tom, what's going on with you too, Peter.
Speaker 4: I'll start with you and maybe some things that you're
Speaker 4: hearing about big name quarterbacks that we want to pay
Speaker 4: attention to this weekend.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there are Shador Sanders walking in. He's got great charisma,
Speaker 5: obviously has this incredible college career. Jackson say to Colorado,
Speaker 5: But as was reported earlier this week, he will do everything,
Speaker 5: but it seems like he will not be doing the workouts.
Speaker 5: Tom if you want to just give us a rundown
Speaker 5: for the quarterbacks, the ones who are going to be
Speaker 5: throwing our Saturday.
Speaker 2: What's the latest we're hearing on who's going to go
Speaker 2: and who's not.
Speaker 6: Obviously the two names everybody's keeping an eye on in
Speaker 6: this lead up to the draft, Shador Sanders and cam Ward.
Speaker 6: Shaduur is not going to throw here at the Combine.
Speaker 6: He's going to wait for his pro day be throwing
Speaker 6: the ball to Travis Hunter and others. On that occasion
Speaker 6: with cam Ward, I talked with his quarterbacks coach Daryl Colberg, who,
Speaker 6: by the way, also trade Shadur. They've actually trained together
Speaker 6: at times. I can't think of a lot of occasions
Speaker 6: where that's the case here. Cambored is still undecided about
Speaker 6: whether he wants to throw, but Colbert told me he's
Speaker 6: really competitive. They did a combined type workout just the
Speaker 6: other day, so Cambore is at least there's mullying. Hey,
Speaker 6: if Shador is not throwing, I mean I come out
Speaker 6: here and show and cement any questions about whether or
Speaker 6: not I'm the number one quarterback in this straft. I
Speaker 6: anticipate all the other quarterbacks drafting Jet throwing on Saturday.
Speaker 6: Jackson Dark is going to throw, so is Jalen Milroe.
Speaker 6: Quinn Ewers, who had a torto bleak back at the
Speaker 6: start last season, hurt it in the Michigan game and
Speaker 6: got worse and worse. He battled through that the whole season.
Speaker 6: He's finally fully healthy. He's been watching tape with Mike
Speaker 6: McCarthy the pack creak down in Dallas, getting himself ready
Speaker 6: for some of the board work here.
Speaker 2: He's up to two hundred fifteen pounds. Quinn yours.
Speaker 6: There's a lot of talk about our who's QB one.
Speaker 6: There's real questions about who's QB two and three on
Speaker 6: down and how high could some of those guys go.
Speaker 6: We know that there's a lot of teams right now,
Speaker 6: the need is starting quarterback. Could you maybe see some
Speaker 6: of those teams a little later in round one or
Speaker 6: at the top of round two trying to vault up.
Speaker 2: We've seen that happen in the past. Real quick, before
Speaker 2: we get back to LA.
Speaker 5: You had a really good interview with Chiefs GM Brett
Speaker 5: Vitch yesterday on NFL Network.
Speaker 2: I'd be remiss if I didn't mention it.
Speaker 5: And I thought he was enlightening on some of the
Speaker 5: stuff going on with Kansas City, but also he mentioned
Speaker 5: something with Travis Kelce that hadn't been reported previously.
Speaker 6: Travis Kelce was battling the corning to bread veach a
Speaker 6: pretty big illness leading up to the Super Bowl. Wasn't
Speaker 6: anything that popped up on the injury report. But clearly
Speaker 6: if you go back and you watch some of the
Speaker 6: plays you pointed out the one that everybody been making
Speaker 6: the viral rounds of him not blocking on a play here,
Speaker 6: it's not really very help. He didn't necessarily look the
Speaker 6: best that we've ever seen him, just physically in terms
Speaker 6: of his facer in the game, so to the extent
Speaker 6: to which is as Vid said, By the way he said,
Speaker 6: some of the excuses he goes, Hey, God, the way
Speaker 6: the Eagles played, it wouldn't have mattered.
Speaker 2: That's what he said.
Speaker 6: But to the extent that Travis Kelcey's kind of getting
Speaker 6: kicked around, listen, he's thirty five years old. It sounds
Speaker 6: like he's coming back, Viet said. It sounds like he's
Speaker 6: excited to come back here. Doesn't want to go out
Speaker 6: on that note in terms of what version of Travis
Speaker 6: kelce we get, He've said he has this way of
Speaker 6: finding a way to keep himself in shape, producing like
Speaker 6: only he can.
Speaker 2: A lot of wide receiver questions for the Chiefs headed
Speaker 2: into the.
Speaker 6: South season, it seems like tight End one is back.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Jamide, lots of stuff happened in conversations like that happen.
Speaker 5: And credit to Tom getting that out of Brett Viach.
Speaker 5: We had not heard that before till yesterday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And to Tom's point, you're right, the visuals kind
Speaker 4: of line up with what we were hearing now with
Speaker 4: that story from Brett Veach. So it's kind of appreciated.
Speaker 4: But I also appreciate his humility and honesty. That didn't
Speaker 4: really matter. The Eagles were awesome that day, Peter, thank you.
Speaker 4: We back here are continuing to talk about Peter's top
Speaker 4: ten combine guys that we've keep an eye on. Yesterday
Speaker 4: it was ten through six today, five four, three, two one.
Speaker 4: It's still happening this hour. But for now, let's play
Speaker 4: three and out. We're going to start with Jets general
Speaker 4: manager Darren Mugi when he was asked yesterday by reporters
Speaker 4: about the conversations that he's had with Aaron Rodgers. Here's
Speaker 4: what he had to say.
Speaker 7: I'm not going to discuss any private discussions that I
Speaker 7: had with Aaron throughout this process. I'm not here to
Speaker 7: confirm or deny any rumors that happened during that process.
Speaker 7: I will say this, there was never an ultimatum or
Speaker 7: rules of engagement for Aaron to potentially join the Jets. Again,
Speaker 7: that never happened.
Speaker 8: This move just has talked about the Aaron Rodgers deal.
Speaker 8: I don't think that needs to be anything else there
Speaker 8: about that things. I don't want to disrespect. You know,
Speaker 8: the players we have in my team, and they kind
Speaker 8: of pisces me off and some of the other players
Speaker 8: that that's what we all talk about. You have Quinn Williams,
Speaker 8: you have quins to william you have AVT. Now you
Speaker 8: have Joe Tidman. All those guys need to be respected
Speaker 8: as far as winning games.
Speaker 2: Also, oh man.
Speaker 4: This is a new chapter for the New York Jets. Peter,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna paying it right back out to you. You
Speaker 4: know those guys that building, you know that head coach.
Speaker 4: I kind of like that fire and the defense that
Speaker 4: Aaron Gladd had for Aaron Glenn had for his guys.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Look, Aaron Glenn came in yesterday at this podium and
Speaker 5: he was all business in a way that I don't
Speaker 5: think Jets media or Jets fans have seen a new
Speaker 5: coach be there's no hey, let's wait and see. This
Speaker 5: is a process. He's like, no, we're looking to win now.
Speaker 5: Every day I'm looking to win now. But they also
Speaker 5: was not going to suffer any fools and do this
Speaker 5: Rogers thing. And both he and Darren Moosey were like,
Speaker 5: we're moving on. We already told Aaron we're good with Aaron.
Speaker 5: We're moving on. Question is where are they going? You know,
Speaker 5: we're talking about the Giants in the Stafford conversation. We
Speaker 5: haven't heard the Jets being linked to that Sam Donald
Speaker 5: played for the Jets. Does it make sense for the
Speaker 5: Jets to make a big free agent offered to Sam Donald.
Speaker 5: I don't know if that's even in the cards. So
Speaker 5: the question to me is we did all this, We
Speaker 5: got the coach, we got the GM, we got the
Speaker 5: new OC, we got the new DC, he got all this.
Speaker 2: Who's playing quarterback?
Speaker 5: And does it start here where they have the seven
Speaker 5: overall pick? And I saw mel Kiper has Shdor Sanders
Speaker 5: going to the Jets.
Speaker 2: Are we going rookie or.
Speaker 5: Is this going to be another deal where it's let's
Speaker 5: kick the can a little bit and try to find
Speaker 5: a veteran to get it done. Remember Tyrod Taylor very
Speaker 5: well liked in that room, but in his mid thirties.
Speaker 5: Is Tyrod Taylor the best option to be the quarterback
Speaker 5: one for the Jets? And does that get the fan
Speaker 5: base going? I'm not sure that's the answer. So a
Speaker 5: lot of positivity out of the Jets brass and a
Speaker 5: lot of positivity from Jets fans about how the Jets
Speaker 5: brass has been speaking, but they still have a giant
Speaker 5: hole at quarterback at the moment.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think the most frustrating part from Aaron Glenn and
Speaker 3: Moujie is that they weren't a part of the Jets
Speaker 3: organization a year ago, Right, And that's what they just
Speaker 3: keep talking about, is Aaron Rodgers from twenty twenty four.
Speaker 3: How are you going to overcome that? Uji and Glenn
Speaker 3: sat down. They said they had a lot of discussions
Speaker 3: about which direction they wanted to go with quarterback in
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, and Aaron Rodgers is not a part
Speaker 3: of that vision. That's fine. That happens all the time
Speaker 3: in the NFL. I agree with him a little bit.
Speaker 3: I love when you see a head coach get fired
Speaker 3: up like Glen. Did you know he's focused about the
Speaker 3: guys that are here and now that he can win with.
Speaker 3: Right now, we got to focus on free agency. We
Speaker 3: got to focus on the draft. We have to add
Speaker 3: the right pieces to this roster. Let both parties go
Speaker 3: their separate ways and leave it at that. Right Their
Speaker 3: main focus right now is a new era for New
Speaker 3: York Jet football and the fans are desperate for that.
Speaker 3: So I love the way that Glenn approached that. And
Speaker 3: then the Movisie went on to give him his flower.
Speaker 3: He said, look, Aaron Rodgers the first ballot Hall of Famer.
Speaker 3: He's one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. We
Speaker 3: wish him nothing but the best, but we're going to
Speaker 3: go our separate ways.
Speaker 10: Aaron Glenn is trying to make his team his team.
Speaker 10: He's trying to unbaptish his culture. When I was little,
Speaker 10: we used to go to this tongue called halaivo and
Speaker 10: we used to paddle canoe. And the thing about paddling
Speaker 10: canoe is there's only one voice in that boat. If
Speaker 10: somebody starts to get some opinions about where we should go,
Speaker 10: how fast we should go, we start to spin around
Speaker 10: in circles and sometimes capsize. And we saw it in
Speaker 10: twenty twenty four with the New York Jets that they
Speaker 10: started to spin around a little bit because there are
Speaker 10: so many different opinions in that boat. AG is trying
Speaker 10: to make sure that there's one voice in that boat,
Speaker 10: and that's his. He's standing on business. So I'm I'm
Speaker 10: all in with AG kind of establishing that precedence early.
Speaker 4: And it's really a tandem too. I liked how he deflected,
Speaker 4: like moo's you already answered this question, so and I'm
Speaker 4: not going to disrespect. And I love the use of
Speaker 4: that word in that moment for Aaron Glenn like, let's
Speaker 4: talk about the guys, and there's some really good players
Speaker 4: in the Jets building that are with our team now.
Speaker 4: All right, time for second down and three and out.
Speaker 4: The Bengals have some big decisions to make. Guys like
Speaker 4: Jamar Chase, See Higgins, Trey Hendrickson, they're all looking for
Speaker 4: new deals. NFL Networks Judy Batista sat down with head
Speaker 4: coach Zach Taylor to ask him about the status of
Speaker 4: some of those big names and their big new deals.
Speaker 11: Let's just go right down the list. Jamar Chase, what
Speaker 11: are your hopes for contract for him and for having
Speaker 11: him early and in fully in the off season time.
Speaker 12: He's worried they of a new deal, and so we're
Speaker 12: certainly working towards that and optimistic that we'll get that done.
Speaker 12: But he's done everything he can put himself in a
Speaker 12: position to earn that and we want to reward him
Speaker 12: with that.
Speaker 11: Higgins could become a free agent, could be franchised, tagged.
Speaker 11: What's your expectation, what's your hope there.
Speaker 12: He's a great player, He's a big reason why we've
Speaker 12: had the success we've had. We want Tea back and
Speaker 12: We'll continue to work through that, right.
Speaker 11: Trey Hendrickson, Let's look to the other side of the ball,
Speaker 11: same thing. What's your expectation with him?
Speaker 12: We're certainly a better team with Trey on it, you know,
Speaker 12: And so again working through that with him. I know
Speaker 12: we've had a lot of conversations. He's one of my
Speaker 12: favorite players to deal with. You know, We've had a
Speaker 12: lot of these conversations over the years, and so again,
Speaker 12: we're a better team with Trey on it. We're working
Speaker 12: through that, all.
Speaker 2: Right, Peter.
Speaker 4: There was a joke that assistant general manager Joe Burrow
Speaker 4: is not going to be at the combine this weekend
Speaker 4: because he was on radio road during Super Bowl making
Speaker 4: sure that his guys got taken care of in Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: How we look in when it comes to these big names,
Speaker 4: big money that they're demanding in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 5: Salary cap gymnastics, here we go, and is Duke Tobin
Speaker 5: the guy in charge of all that, capable and ready
Speaker 5: to do whatever he can to make this work. I
Speaker 5: think all three players they would love to have back.
Speaker 5: All three players are elite players in the end, and
Speaker 5: if you start ranking them, and I really give Judy
Speaker 5: a lot of credit for not saying, Okay, here's the
Speaker 5: most important, here's the second most, and here's the third one.
Speaker 5: Because you can make the argument that Trey Hendrickson with
Speaker 5: their team MVP last year, he led the NFL in
Speaker 5: sacks on a team that had defensive woes everywhere. He
Speaker 5: was the start of the shining bright star. I would
Speaker 5: imagine they figured it out with Jamar Chase. I would
Speaker 5: imagine they figured out with Trey Hendrickson. Then what about
Speaker 5: t Higgins that is a number one wide receiver. They
Speaker 5: put themselves in this position by not finding a way
Speaker 5: to get this done going into.
Speaker 2: This offseason, but it's not too late.
Speaker 5: If they can go three for three, it would be
Speaker 5: miraculous and it would be a heralded.
Speaker 2: Offseason for the Bengals.
Speaker 5: I will say this last year, at this point, we
Speaker 5: were going into the Combine and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Speaker 5: had Baker Mayfield up. They had Mike Evans up, and
Speaker 5: they had Levonte David up, and they had Antoine Winfield up.
Speaker 2: They got all four of.
Speaker 5: Those guys back and they were able to figure it
Speaker 5: out how to do it financially?
Speaker 2: There are ways.
Speaker 5: There is an ability you just have to be creative
Speaker 5: and you have to have an open dialogue with the players.
Speaker 3: I agree hundred percent. I think you have to find
Speaker 3: a way to keep all three. Unfortunately for the Bengals,
Speaker 3: they have forty six million dollars in cap space right now,
Speaker 3: and they're going to heavily benefit from the cap space
Speaker 3: going from two undred fifty five million to around that
Speaker 3: two hundred and eighty million mark. But the biggest thing
Speaker 3: for me is Tobin said that Jamar Chase is our priority,
Speaker 3: right and I agree that's one hundred percent true. Triple
Speaker 3: Crown winner. He's a very good football player, is hard
Speaker 3: to replace. But if he's your top priority, Tee Higgins
Speaker 3: needs to be your urgent priority, your immediate priority, because
Speaker 3: he's an unrestricted free agent and he is going to
Speaker 3: be a hot commodity when March twelve comes around, and
Speaker 3: there's a lot of teams that are going to be
Speaker 3: after him. And I agree with Peter too. You have
Speaker 3: to find a way to keep Trey Hendrickson. You have
Speaker 3: to find him or you have to find a way
Speaker 3: to extend that. Now he's doing sixteen million next year,
Speaker 3: so it's not as urgent as t Higgins. He can't
Speaker 3: walk away, but he wants to be there for the
Speaker 3: long term, and they need to do that. One of
Speaker 3: the top offenses in the NFL year ago, there were
Speaker 3: twenty fifth in scoring defense, there were twenty fifth in
Speaker 3: total defense. They are struggling on that side of the football.
Speaker 3: You need to find a way to keep all three,
Speaker 3: but you also have to be able to be aggressive
Speaker 3: and free agency so you can put some big pieces
Speaker 3: on the defensive side of the one.
Speaker 10: I'm a clear things as far as the comparison. He
Speaker 10: asked me, you know, isn't this like the Rams and
Speaker 10: Pooka Nkum Cooper cuppies. It's nothing like that. Why because
Speaker 10: Pooka Nakuhn Cooper cup is the same position. T Higgins
Speaker 10: and Jamar Chase totally different position. Jamar Chase, you can
Speaker 10: put him in a slot Z receiver's primarily on that
Speaker 10: side of the ball, on the passengering side, whereas T.
Speaker 10: Higgins that's your ex receiver, that's your fifty to fifty
Speaker 10: ball man. And without one of the two, they're not
Speaker 10: the same. I was talked about yesterday with CD lamon
Speaker 10: Brandon Cooks. It's the same dynamic when you have T
Speaker 10: Higgins over there for Joe Burrow, it's so easy to
Speaker 10: know what the defense is in because if you don't
Speaker 10: have that safety over t Higgins, you're in trouble. If
Speaker 10: you do, now I can go one on one with
Speaker 10: Jamar Chase. So those two guys, to me are the priority.
Speaker 10: I know Trey he wants to be in Cincinnati. He's
Speaker 10: led the league in sacks. I think he came second
Speaker 10: place and defensive Player of the Year for the NFL
Speaker 10: with his seventeen sacks. He's a dynamic player in one
Speaker 10: of those corner pieces and focal point of that team.
Speaker 10: So I think Trade's going to come back, and I
Speaker 10: think the priority has to be those two wide receivers.
Speaker 4: Obviously Joe Burrow once it all, but I go back
Speaker 4: to you with what Mansi just said, like, is it
Speaker 4: that plain and simple with specifically he wants those two
Speaker 4: wide receivers back because of how much it helps just
Speaker 4: build this offense and the fact that you're not trying
Speaker 4: to line up the same guy in the same position
Speaker 4: one hundred percent.
Speaker 3: It's so important as a quarterback to build continuity and
Speaker 3: to be on the same page at all times. And
Speaker 3: it's you know, It's an old joke, I can throw
Speaker 3: to this guy with my eyes closed. That becomes true
Speaker 3: when you spend time together. When you have a guy
Speaker 3: like Jamar Chase and you have a guy like t Higgins.
Speaker 3: It's so important for Joe Burro to keep those guys there.
Speaker 3: And Mantime made a great comment on that is that
Speaker 3: the best wide receiver ones in the NFL have a
Speaker 3: great supporting cast around on specifically a one B or
Speaker 3: a number two receiver.
Speaker 9: You look at the Eagles, you.
Speaker 3: Have aj Brown and Devonte's m Well, I don't know
Speaker 3: who's one in that situations that's one A, one B.
Speaker 3: But you look at the Vikings you have Jay Jettis
Speaker 3: and then you have Jordan Adison right behind them. The
Speaker 3: Lions this year with Arminros Saint Brown, Jamison Williams. The
Speaker 3: list goes on and on right Tyreek Kill, Jalen Waddle.
Speaker 3: If you want to have a great number one wide receiver,
Speaker 3: you need to have a great number two so they
Speaker 3: can take some of that over the top coverage off
Speaker 3: of them and get some one on one match.
Speaker 4: A lot of that has to do with the Cowboys
Speaker 4: conversation we had yesterday and finding a second option to
Speaker 4: ceed lamb all right, third down and three and out.
Speaker 4: The Packers and many others, it's not just the Packers anymore,
Speaker 4: are looking to ban the tush push. Here's Eagles head
Speaker 4: coach the originator of this forsaken play. Nick Sirianni on
Speaker 4: the proposal of teams to get rid of it.
Speaker 13: It's a little insulting to say, it's just just you know,
Speaker 13: we're good at it, so it's automatic.
Speaker 3: We work really hard at it.
Speaker 13: The fact that it's that it's a successful play for
Speaker 13: the Eagles and people want to take that away, I
Speaker 13: think it's a little a little unfair.
Speaker 9: Not that it's been a legal three years ago now,
Speaker 9: the tush push play. I was never been a big fan.
Speaker 14: There's just no other play in our game where you
Speaker 14: can absolutely get behind somebody and push them, pull them off,
Speaker 14: do anything to be at a use it.
Speaker 9: I never really understood it and why that was legal.
Speaker 2: So I'm definitely gonna go on of those guys voting
Speaker 2: against that.
Speaker 4: Well, Nick Sirianni, you can also add the fact that,
Speaker 4: like you, tush push into your Lombardi winning season, and
Speaker 4: that's probably why people are annoyed. Peter your thoughts on
Speaker 4: the Toush push and this report that became true because
Speaker 4: everybody's answering to it now in Indianapolis that people want
Speaker 4: it gone.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's a big push to get it down, no
Speaker 5: pun intended. There's a lot of people around the NFL,
Speaker 5: and one of the things we keep hearing is.
Speaker 2: That it's because of player safety.
Speaker 5: But we don't have the data, and I've talked to
Speaker 5: folks at the league off like, there's no data that
Speaker 5: shows that more players are getting hurt because of the Toushbush. Now,
Speaker 5: the potential to get hurt, obviously when you have someone
Speaker 5: pushing someone into a line of players is great in
Speaker 5: your head and you imagine, But so far, all the
Speaker 5: times we've seen it, the data doesn't prove out that
Speaker 5: there has been an increase in injury. So it's hard
Speaker 5: to stand on that. Second part of it is this
Speaker 5: not So Philly and like so plays into their entire
Speaker 5: mantra that the entire league is against us and everyone
Speaker 5: wants them and only if you want to Bret Bannett,
Speaker 5: how about you stop it. I love that Sirianni was
Speaker 5: as bold as he was there and I think it
Speaker 5: speaks to Jeff Stoutlin, their offensive line coach. It speaks
Speaker 5: at Jamel Singleton, they're running backs coach, and it speaks
Speaker 5: to all those players who line up for the Philadelphia
Speaker 5: Eagles that.
Speaker 2: This is not just one year, this is not just
Speaker 2: two years.
Speaker 5: This is four years that we have seen the tush
Speaker 5: push be used and it still has not been stopped.
Speaker 5: And yet other teams try it and other teams don't
Speaker 5: execute it as well. So I personally don't have any
Speaker 5: opinion on it. I don't love seeing it aesthetically. I
Speaker 5: have much more in favor of a beautiful game and
Speaker 5: some of the different ex's and o's that the coaches
Speaker 5: can draw up than just hey, lower your shoulder. But
Speaker 5: there is a skill to this, and that skill has
Speaker 5: to be appreciated. It's almost like braun over beauty. I'm
Speaker 5: in the beauty business. I like seeing beautiful football. I
Speaker 5: like seeing long passes. I like seeing my face on TV.
Speaker 5: They're into the brown, They're into the physicality of it.
Speaker 5: I stay away from all that.
Speaker 3: If Peter is single, are we talking USh push or
Speaker 3: bush push?
Speaker 9: I don't.
Speaker 2: I didn't know your dam No.
Speaker 3: Okay, no, I'm with Peter on that. I just I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't understand how you been it right. Just because
Speaker 3: one team has perfected it, it doesn't mean that you
Speaker 3: can just take it away when all thirty other or
Speaker 3: thirty one other teams have the availability to learn it right.
Speaker 3: Nick heer Any talk about and jas and Kelsey has before.
Speaker 3: We spend a lot of time on this. This isn't
Speaker 3: just luck. We don't just run it on Sundays and
Speaker 3: try to figure it out. But I do understand the
Speaker 3: frustration to Peter's point, especially in the NFC Championship game,
Speaker 3: right when they did the hardcount after hardcount going against
Speaker 3: the Commanders, and then the ref gets on and says,
Speaker 3: if they do it again or they jump off sides again,
Speaker 3: we're going to award Philadelphia six points. And it was
Speaker 3: a little frustrating. It you lose the rhythm of the game,
Speaker 3: it slows it down, fans are mad at home, and
Speaker 3: then the end up going to scoring anyway. So I
Speaker 3: understand the frustration. But my biggest question is what are
Speaker 3: they asking to ban exactly right, because pushing a player
Speaker 3: was banned back in two thousand and six, they unbanned
Speaker 3: it at that time. You could push and pull or
Speaker 3: you couldn't push in poll, you still can't pull a player,
Speaker 3: but then they unbanded it two thousand and six, so
Speaker 3: you can push. Are we banning the formation? Do they
Speaker 3: want to ban the player or they want to ban
Speaker 3: pushing a player, because then that trickles into other parts
Speaker 3: of the game. If I just go normal zone read
Speaker 3: and the running back works up and get stopped by
Speaker 3: a linebacker the second level, my tackle comes to help
Speaker 3: and tries to block a guy, but my hand touches
Speaker 3: his back. Is that a push? If I throw a
Speaker 3: screen to a receiver on the outside, the tackle gets outside,
Speaker 3: he hits the corner at the same time and unintentionally
Speaker 3: pushes the receip ford, is that a penalty. I just
Speaker 3: that's why the rule was unbanned because it's so tough,
Speaker 3: and those scrums in those huddles to know if they're
Speaker 3: pushing or their blocking. So I just don't know exactly
Speaker 3: what the rule.
Speaker 9: Change would be if you do want to ban.
Speaker 3: Get it out of here, guys, get the thing out
Speaker 3: of here.
Speaker 10: The reason why I say get it out of here
Speaker 10: isn't for the reasons why everybody else is saying get
Speaker 10: it out of here.
Speaker 3: I'm saying get it out of here.
Speaker 10: Because of this, I think that the Tush push robs
Speaker 10: Sekwon Barkley are the MVP.
Speaker 3: I honestly do.
Speaker 10: Sekwon Barkley had thirteen rushing rushing touchdowns in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 10: The Egoles scored fifteen touchdowns via tush push fifteen. That
Speaker 10: would have put Saquon, which in my opinion is just
Speaker 10: as automatic down there in the one yard line. At
Speaker 10: twenty eight touchdowns, that's tied for the most ever in
Speaker 10: NFL with Lathenian Thomlinson.
Speaker 3: Do you think that he win the MVP?
Speaker 9: Then?
Speaker 10: I think he would have won the MVP then. So
Speaker 10: that's the only reason why I want that play out
Speaker 10: out of football is just because I thought that the
Speaker 10: year that Saquon Barkley had, if you added those fifteen
Speaker 10: touchdowns fourteen by Jalen Hurts won by can you Pickett,
Speaker 10: he would have won the MVP.
Speaker 2: And that's it.
Speaker 10: I don't see anything wrong with the play, It's just
Speaker 10: that I just wanted Taquon to win the MVP.
Speaker 3: That's a great point. I'll tell you who does want
Speaker 3: it banned is Saquon Barkley Fantasy football owners? He had
Speaker 3: fantasy football ownership of Saquon throughout the season. Who wanted
Speaker 3: those touchdown? Who doesn't want a band? Is Jalen Hurts Fantasy?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Right, that's up.
Speaker 5: Peter Man tid do you really think Saquon Barkley needed
Speaker 5: anything more this season?
Speaker 2: Like, I mean, honestly, I think Sequon's pretty good.
Speaker 5: I think he might have I mean, Howie roast Smith
Speaker 5: said yesterday he might have had the best season ever
Speaker 5: from a skill position player.
Speaker 2: So let's save some for the others.
Speaker 5: Let Jalen Hurts get a couple of touchdowns, and you
Speaker 5: know the Eagles fans, they're fine with the touch push,
Speaker 5: and I think Saquon's.
Speaker 2: Okay with it too.
Speaker 4: I just love a couple of years back, I was
Speaker 4: on the sideline for a game, and I won't say
Speaker 4: who the head coach was, but this coach was convinced
Speaker 4: that the only reason why that toush push was successful
Speaker 4: was because it was at the hands of Jason Kelsey,
Speaker 4: that he was this unicorn of a center and the
Speaker 4: way his body could contort in his angles and his strength,
Speaker 4: that that's why they could do it well. And he
Speaker 4: retires and Cam Jurgen states over a he could do it.
Speaker 4: So I love the fact that that argument was perfectly
Speaker 4: and that it really lends itself to everyone else can
Speaker 4: learn it. If you're a center, you can learn this.
Speaker 4: And I don't think they should get away with it,
Speaker 4: but I do appreciate argument that it wasn't just a
Speaker 4: defensive guy. Coming up on GMFB, we're going to head
Speaker 4: back out to Indianapolis because Cameron Wolf is around town
Speaker 4: and he got a hold of Texans head coach Demiko
Speaker 4: Ryans to talk about everything that that team went through
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four. They had a really slippery December,
Speaker 4: but then came out of the cannon in January, won
Speaker 4: a playoff game, went to Kansas City. I'm sure they're
Speaker 4: going to cover all the topics for free agency as well.
Speaker 4: Lots to look forward to with that conversation, But first,
Speaker 4: Cody Kessler's at the table this week, and he was
Speaker 4: really mad yesterday because Peter revealed his ten through six
Speaker 4: of his top ten Combine players to watch this weekend,
Speaker 4: and he wanted.
Speaker 1: To keep going.
Speaker 4: He demands answers. Peter Schrager coming up five four, three,
Speaker 4: two one. You're gonna hear all the names that Peter
Speaker 4: will put his hat on from the Combine on GMFB
Speaker 4: coming up this.
Speaker 9: Hour four.
Speaker 2: Good Morning Football.
Speaker 5: Trigger's top ten prospects entering the Combine. This was the dude,
Speaker 5: the only two time Mackie Award winner Bowers.
Speaker 10: Jump out, the thirty five touchdown writer.
Speaker 5: Jaden Daniels was the Heisman Trophy winner. Neivers was his guy.
Speaker 5: He's LSU's career leader in receptions and receiving.
Speaker 2: Yours, Holley. That's why they drafted a fifth overall.
Speaker 5: I am such a fan of Jaden Daniels. He goes
Speaker 5: to LSU and he blows all expectations.
Speaker 2: Out of the water.
Speaker 5: This guy was a Heisman Trophy winner and he projects
Speaker 5: to be a top five NFL draft pick.
Speaker 2: Give the end, zdE second card, will see you with
Speaker 2: a buff day, Dad. It is USC quarterback Kayla Glue.
Speaker 5: It's in just two years at USC through seventy two
Speaker 5: passing touchdowns and just ten interceptions.
Speaker 3: Line's it up for DJ mor to the I do
Speaker 3: what a throw by Caleb?
Speaker 5: All Right, we're here and if the top ten prospects
Speaker 5: do it every single year from the Combine.
Speaker 2: Yesterday, we start off with ten through six.
Speaker 5: That I heard a lot of you online and a
Speaker 5: lot of you on Twitter and Instagram, all chiming in.
Speaker 9: We love that.
Speaker 5: We want dialogue on disagreement over these picks. But it's
Speaker 5: my list and it's what it is going into the combine.
Speaker 5: Of course, today we're gonna go five through one, and
Speaker 5: we had two Michigan men at ten and nine yesterday.
Speaker 5: How about another Michigan man at number five. Mason Graham
Speaker 5: is the number five prospect for me going into this
Speaker 5: combine week. Mason Graham wearing number fifty five, just like
Speaker 5: Brandon Graham Adam Michigan. But this guy's on the inside
Speaker 5: of the defensive line and one of the top players.
Speaker 2: In all of college football.
Speaker 5: Had a career year in twenty twenty three when they
Speaker 5: won the national title.
Speaker 2: He started thirteen games for the Nownational championship team and
Speaker 2: then followed it up by.
Speaker 5: Being a first team All American this year, two time
Speaker 5: First Team Big Ten Conference and dominant inside.
Speaker 2: Now there's been critiques about his body, does he have
Speaker 2: long enough armed? I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 5: He dominated the Big Ten, dominated the Big Ten. He
Speaker 5: is a top five pick and I wouldn't be shocked
Speaker 5: if he goes even higher.
Speaker 2: Than that. From a personal note, our show has a
Speaker 2: connection to him.
Speaker 5: He went to the same high school as Tea Mac
Speaker 5: who was the wide receiver at of Arizona. They both
Speaker 5: could go in the top ten if you're talking about
Speaker 5: two guys who went into high school together and they
Speaker 5: went to a school out there in Anaheim. Now, guess what,
Speaker 5: our researcher on the show, Blake Blake, was a math
Speaker 5: teacher at this school when they were both there at
Speaker 5: the same time in Anaheim. So I love that team
Speaker 5: Mac Mason, Graham and of course our guy Blake in.
Speaker 2: Research the school itself. Let me get on the phone
Speaker 2: here because I gotta give it love. I'm here, I am,
Speaker 2: I'm trying to do all this stuff it is called.
Speaker 5: And at the school here, servete High School, we see you,
Speaker 5: Servet in Anaheim, churning out NFL content and churning out,
Speaker 5: churning out NFL.
Speaker 2: Research gods, our guy Blink.
Speaker 3: So there we go.
Speaker 2: That's number five.
Speaker 9: Yeah, number four.
Speaker 5: We go to Boise State, where I think Ashton gent
Speaker 5: is one of the top running backs in this draft
Speaker 5: and will obviously be a first round.
Speaker 2: Pick number two in the Heisman this year.
Speaker 5: Did it all at Boise, A product, of course, out
Speaker 5: of Florida.
Speaker 2: He's a Jackson of Florida kid.
Speaker 5: Five foot nine, two hundred and fifteen pounds, won the
Speaker 5: Dope Walker Award.
Speaker 2: Is a nation's top running back. Why see led college football?
Speaker 5: We get this number, guys, twenty six one hundred rushing
Speaker 5: yards in one season. Twenty six rushing yards in one season,
Speaker 5: and that's major college football.
Speaker 2: That's not Division three, that's not Division one Double A.
Speaker 5: It's two time AP All American, and he's two time
Speaker 5: Mountain West Conference Offensive Player of the Year the SI.
Speaker 2: It's the speed. He's got it all.
Speaker 5: Unfortunately, he's already said he's not going to work out
Speaker 5: at the Combine. But if you watched him do any
Speaker 5: of the stuff he did at the Super Bowl, he
Speaker 5: did a lot of media. He is a big personality
Speaker 5: and he is very confident that he can bring it
Speaker 5: to the next level. I have seen some teams tell me.
Speaker 5: I've had conversations like he might just be the best
Speaker 5: player in this draft. It's a running backs. We're not
Speaker 5: sure where that goes, but I've got.
Speaker 2: Him at four on this list.
Speaker 5: Number three is my favorite player to watch in all
Speaker 5: of college football.
Speaker 2: This past season. He's out of Penn State.
Speaker 5: He's the tight end who has number forty four, mister
Speaker 5: Tyler Warren. If you watch any of these Penn State games,
Speaker 5: this guy does it all. He was a high school
Speaker 5: quarterback who plays HVAC and plays tight end and he
Speaker 5: is an absolute machine. He's got a Mechanicsville Virginia finish
Speaker 5: seventh in the Heisman this year. That is the highest
Speaker 5: eight tight end has finished since Notre Dames Ken McAfee
Speaker 5: finished third in nineteen seventy seven. He was the do
Speaker 5: it all player on this Penn State offense. On the
Speaker 5: John McKie Awards, the nation's top tight end, was tied
Speaker 5: for second in all of college football, not amongst tight
Speaker 5: ends among.
Speaker 2: All players, with one hundred and.
Speaker 5: Four catches, First Team All Big Ten Fiesta Bowl MVP,
Speaker 5: where he had two touchdowns and six catches, and of
Speaker 5: course was that dominant force in that Penn State offense.
Speaker 2: Kyle Brant likes to do angry runs like this guy
Speaker 2: might win it every single week. Plays with a fury
Speaker 2: out there.
Speaker 5: Again a high school quarterback, so he's a superior athlete.
Speaker 2: Bolted up at Penn State. Where's that sea on his
Speaker 2: chest as a captain. Unbelievable player, ty Warren. I think
Speaker 2: he might go.
Speaker 5: As high as top five. He will not escape the
Speaker 5: top ten. We already had Lovelades, the one tight end
Speaker 5: out of Michigan. I've got another tight end in Warren,
Speaker 5: and he's as high as number three. I've got a friend,
Speaker 5: my friend Eric Ziff, who sees all this football. Two
Speaker 5: years ago, he put me on to Tyler Warren. I
Speaker 5: have been watching this guy for the last two seasons
Speaker 5: and he has gotten better and better and better.
Speaker 2: We'll see he goes in the draft, which leaves.
Speaker 5: Two players left, and I think these two players have
Speaker 5: been batted around as the top two non quarterbacks in
Speaker 5: this draft. Number two, I've got Tyler Warren's teammate at
Speaker 5: of Penn State.
Speaker 2: It's for Abdul Carter. Abdul Carter did it all for
Speaker 2: Penn State this year.
Speaker 5: And what a lot of teams love was that he
Speaker 5: did it ball while he was hurt in the biggest
Speaker 5: of games. Yes, Abduall Carter. Of course he comes out
Speaker 5: of this thing and you look at what he did
Speaker 5: at Penn State. The numbers tell the story. He led
Speaker 5: all of college football with twenty three and a half
Speaker 5: tackles for a loss. He was the Big Ten Conference
Speaker 5: defensive player of the Year All American six three, two
Speaker 5: hundred and fifty two pounds out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Gets
Speaker 5: hurt in that last semifinal game against Notre Dame and
Speaker 5: still found a way to dominate that game, Anti Tao,
Speaker 5: I know you were watching it.
Speaker 2: Number eleven was all over the field. Many people believe
Speaker 2: he'll be the first pick in this draft. Abdull Carter
Speaker 2: will just go number one to ten. You call it
Speaker 2: like that, It's easy. He's your Miles Garrett, he's your TJ. Watt.
Speaker 5: You put him in there, you're set for the next
Speaker 5: ten years. He is that good of a prospect. I've
Speaker 5: got him number two on my list because for number
Speaker 5: one coming into the NFL Draft and coming into the combine,
Speaker 5: I've got to go with the player that I watched
Speaker 5: every single week the past two seasons, and I watched
Speaker 5: him dominate on both sides of the field. I've got
Speaker 5: Travis Hunter as my number one prospect out of Colorado.
Speaker 5: Played corner, played a wide receiver, and he won the
Speaker 5: Heisman this year. I just don't think there's another player
Speaker 5: like him. That we have seen in college football in
Speaker 5: some time. I actually don't think I in my lifetime
Speaker 5: i've seen a player do it as much as he
Speaker 5: did on both sides of the ball. You're talking about
Speaker 5: a guy who plays one hundred and twenty snaps a
Speaker 5: game and doesn't get hurt, doesn't complain, doesn't demand the ball,
Speaker 5: and was an elite wide receiver and was an elite
Speaker 5: defensive back. The fact that we are already here at
Speaker 5: the Combine and there are still teams split on how
Speaker 5: they would use him tell you just how special a
Speaker 5: player he is. Travis Hunter of six' one one to
Speaker 5: Ninety Heisman trophy, winner two Time First Team All. American
Speaker 5: he was The big Twelve Defensive player of The year this,
Speaker 5: year but he was also a first Team All Big
Speaker 5: twelve wide. Receiver he averaged one hundred and twelve snaps
Speaker 5: per game last year and this. Year you're talking about
Speaker 5: the rarest of. Breeds you're talking about a pure, unicorn
Speaker 5: and to, me the best player in college football and
Speaker 5: the best football.
Speaker 2: Player entering this combine.
Speaker 5: Period, NOW i don't know if he's working out at defensive,
Speaker 5: back wide, receiver or none of it all because we
Speaker 5: don't have that information yet here at the, COMBINE i
Speaker 5: will say, this he has been with the defensive backs
Speaker 5: group going through that as far as interviews and measurements
Speaker 5: and all that. Goes but don't be shocked if AN
Speaker 5: nfl team drafts him and uses him both at corner
Speaker 5: and wide.
Speaker 2: Receiver something we have never seen in this.
Speaker 5: League and that Includes Charles, Woodson Deon, sanders all these
Speaker 5: guys to come out of college and be used that,
Speaker 5: way it just doesn't. Happen Chuck bennaik our last true
Speaker 5: two way, player and that was the nineteen Sixty. Eagles
Speaker 5: Could Travis hunter be the next? ONE i love NEW
Speaker 5: i love president breaking. Players travis hunters that. Guy here
Speaker 5: are my top, five including the top ten prospects of
Speaker 5: the twenty.
Speaker 2: Twenty FIVE Nfl scouting Comment it just my. List you
Speaker 2: can argue that's.
Speaker 9: FINE i like.
Speaker 2: That let's, debate let's have.
Speaker 5: It i've Got Travis hunter at, One Abdul carter, Two
Speaker 5: Tyler warren, Three Ashton genty at, Four Mason graham at.
Speaker 2: Five then you saw six through ten.
Speaker 5: Yesterday it's my, list but we've got a lot of
Speaker 5: people at the, table and let's go To Cody kessler our.
Speaker 5: Quarterback if you, notice just have one. QUARTERBACK i didn't Include,
Speaker 5: Shador i'd Include Jackson, DART i got Cam. Ward BUT
Speaker 5: i want to hear your thoughts on all of these
Speaker 5: players and what your big takeaway was from my.
Speaker 9: List.
Speaker 3: YEAH i like, that And jamie mentioned it.
Speaker 9: EARLIER I.
Speaker 3: PETER i woke up this morning wide, eyed and the
Speaker 3: first THING i thought, about, well the second THING i
Speaker 3: got my wife and newborn and my dog at, home
Speaker 3: my family. First but the second THING i thought about
Speaker 3: Was peter's top. FIVE i could not wait to get
Speaker 3: to work today to see. This the one guy stands
Speaker 3: out the most to me is tight End Tyler. Warren
Speaker 3: What andy Cotal, nikki the oppensive cordnator At Penn, state
Speaker 3: did with him this year was, unbelievable and UNFORTUNATELY i
Speaker 3: got a first hand ticket to. IT i got a
Speaker 3: first seat show of The Tyler warren game when he
Speaker 3: came down to the coliseum to PLAY. Usc my man
Speaker 3: played tight, end he played wide, receiver he played running,
Speaker 3: back he played, quarterback and then he went on to
Speaker 3: Snap bay football playing. Center ran down the middle of the,
Speaker 3: field no one covered, him and he caught a touchdown From.
Speaker 9: Drew Lar it was.
Speaker 3: Unbelievable he had seventeen catches for two hundred and twenty
Speaker 3: four yards and one touchdown in that. GAME i think
Speaker 3: that was the most for a tight end all. Time
Speaker 3: the reception of the YARDS i can't remember, exactly but
Speaker 3: he is an unbelievable. Athlete he is A Swiss Army.
Speaker 3: Knight you can put him anywhere on the. Field it
Speaker 3: just hurts me THAT i had to watch him do
Speaker 3: it against MY Usc trojans this.
Speaker 9: Year BUT i love that.
Speaker 3: LIST i love that you Have Travis hunter at number one.
Speaker 3: TWO i agree with you on. That But Tyler warren
Speaker 3: is going to make an organization very.
Speaker 10: Happy, Man, CODY i Love Tyler warren. TOO i MEAN
Speaker 10: i didn't love him WHEN i watched him against My.
Speaker 10: Irish i'll say. THAT i mean he reminded me of
Speaker 10: that guy from the Movie TROY A jackson of The
Speaker 10: Big Old ye with the. HAMMER i remember watching this
Speaker 10: guy run over my. IRIS i was, like who the
Speaker 10: heck is this?
Speaker 2: Guy like someone stopped this?
Speaker 3: Man stop.
Speaker 10: Them but the guy THAT i like the most Is Ashton.
Speaker 10: Genty i've always loved watching him. PLAY i strongly believe
Speaker 10: that the best quality in the running back is contact.
Speaker 10: Balance all the greats THAT i played against and played
Speaker 10: with have. That they're not the, fastest they're not the,
Speaker 10: strongest but when you hit these, guys they stay up
Speaker 10: on their. Feet Alvin kamaro's that, Way Barrys sanders was that.
Speaker 9: Way.
Speaker 10: Obviously you see it In Saquon Marshawn, lynch.
Speaker 9: Like this guy just does not go.
Speaker 10: Down and WHEN i Watch Ashton gent play this, game
Speaker 10: he plays with that contact, balance and that's something that
Speaker 10: really transfers overwhelmed THE.

Speaker 15: back and that's how we're operating this offseason and kind
Speaker 15: of go from.
Speaker 4: There the future of chie tight End Travis kelcey has
Speaker 4: been up in the air really Before Super bowl fifty
Speaker 4: nine people were asking him about, it But Kansas City
Speaker 4: General Manager Brett veach Joined Tom pellisero On monday and
Speaker 4: gave a positive update On kelsey's. Future this is the
Speaker 4: question that we are constantly wondering, about and now we
Speaker 4: have a little bit more. Clarity and now we have
Speaker 4: even more clarity as to why he looked kind of
Speaker 4: off On Super Bowl. Sunday apparently he was battling some
Speaker 4: kind of. Illness, so, guys do you want to See
Speaker 4: travis kelce run it back?

Speaker 3: mahomes they don't need extra, motivation but now they have.
Speaker 3: It So i'll be surprised if they do get.
Speaker 2: Back that's the, truth oh.
Speaker 4: Man the good news is The Houston texans have won
Speaker 4: a playoff game and each of the two seasons under
Speaker 4: their head Coach Tamika. Ryan's the bad news is he
Speaker 4: probably wants. More with the twenty fifth pick in this year's,
Speaker 4: Draft houston has some questions to address in their wide
Speaker 4: receiver room and on the offensive. Line Tamika ryan sat
Speaker 4: down with our Guy Cameron wolf AND i always wonder
Speaker 4: If wolf as we're in The Wolf pin at The Combine, Inn,
Speaker 4: indy and they talked about the future of The.
Speaker 16: Texans demiko two, years TWO Afc south. Titles but the
Speaker 16: next journey is going from really good to. Great how
Speaker 16: do you get to that next step for The?
Speaker 2: Texans you start back over in step, one all.
Speaker 14: Right you don't just get there, overnight, Right and that's
Speaker 14: why we're here at The. Combine you gotta add great
Speaker 14: players and that's what's gonna get us over the. Hump
Speaker 14: continue to add those players who can make those, plays
Speaker 14: those game winning, plays to put us in a great
Speaker 14: position when we get to that spot.
Speaker 9: Again, yeah you talk about.
Speaker 16: Players listening To texans, players it stands out like they love.
Speaker 16: You they talk about how you are with. Them AND
Speaker 16: i Heard Will anderson talk about you inviting him AND
Speaker 16: cj over for dinner and doing the off field. Relationship
Speaker 16: what do you get out of bonds like.
Speaker 9: That it's good to know they love me because they
Speaker 9: don't tell. Me but, no it's for.
Speaker 14: Me it's all about that personal connection with my. Players
Speaker 14: like that's what matters. MOST i had up over the.
Speaker 9: Coach you told me BEFORE i got into. Coaching.
Speaker 14: Coach players don't care how much you know until they
Speaker 14: know how much you. Care and so for, me you
Speaker 14: have to invest that time to develop those. Relationships and
Speaker 14: when you have that connected relationship with your, players it's
Speaker 14: easy to coach guys Like will LIKE cj because they
Speaker 14: understand they're passionate about the.
Speaker 9: Game they understand my passion.
Speaker 14: And my love for the, game but more, importantly my
Speaker 14: love for them as men and how they continue to,
Speaker 14: grow develop and to be just great leaders on and
Speaker 14: off the.
Speaker 16: Field let's talk about that as men FOR. CJ cj
Speaker 16: had one of the best rookie seasons. EVER i, know
Speaker 16: year or two he probably wanted a little bit. More
Speaker 16: what do you tell him as a man in year
Speaker 16: three of what his hunger, is what he goes after
Speaker 16: to take that next jump from.
Speaker 14: YEAH cj just he has to take a step back
Speaker 14: right and really dive into the off, season, right and
Speaker 14: that's where you're seeing he's in this, One like how
Speaker 14: are you putting that work into in the, Offseason like
Speaker 14: how are you hitting the weight?
Speaker 9: Room like how are you.
Speaker 14: Detailing your craft and improving that and bringing other guys
Speaker 14: along with? You AND i THINK cj is going to
Speaker 14: be much. Better he's gonna have a much better off
Speaker 14: season this time. Around he's invested into being, great and
Speaker 14: you have a player who has that mindset to be.
Speaker 9: Great we've seen his.
Speaker 14: Capabilities we've seen the throws he's made all up and
Speaker 14: down the, field any, throw any play we need to
Speaker 14: make him utilizing his legs to make play, like he's
Speaker 14: more than talented right to lead our team to that next.
Speaker 14: Step just, him just continue to get those other guys
Speaker 14: around him to play the same.
Speaker 16: Way, yeah we've definitely seen him look, elite elite new
Speaker 16: offensive Coordinator Nick klee this. Offseason for you, guys for
Speaker 16: fans at, home what do you anticipate his off his
Speaker 16: offense looking like FOR cj and the rest of the?
Speaker 14: Squad yea With Kaylee, man one THING i love about
Speaker 14: him is just his diverse background and. Coaching he's coached
Speaker 14: defense in college for over ten. Years he's coached with
Speaker 14: In New. England he's worked with the old, line the running,
Speaker 14: backs the tight, ends he's worked with The, rams so he.
Speaker 9: Has a very diverse.
Speaker 14: Background and the main thing about our offensive scheme this
Speaker 14: year is to keep it, adaptable keep it, flexible and
Speaker 14: making sure it fits WHAT cj does. Best that's the
Speaker 14: starting point for any great, offenses tailoring it to your,
Speaker 14: quarterback and that's What kayler will do for.
Speaker 16: Us, obviously this past, year interior offensive line had given some.
Speaker 16: Trouble where do you guys attack and how do you
Speaker 16: attack that area so THAT cj has a little bit
Speaker 16: more of that room to make those plays we talked
Speaker 16: about those elite plays down the.
Speaker 14: Field it's very important for me to know shure up
Speaker 14: the offensive line and starting with the guys that we,
Speaker 14: have like sureing up the technique and how we're doing,
Speaker 14: things how we're. Communicating and then it's also adding, depth
Speaker 14: adding younger guys that can come in and help us.
Speaker 14: Out but as we, KNOW i show our guys every
Speaker 14: week in our team. Meetings i'll put up clips OF.
Speaker 14: Cj when the pocket is right and he has time
Speaker 14: to make. Plays he's making those plays. Consistent but anytime
Speaker 14: we have, that especially the interior pressure that affects the
Speaker 14: quarterback to.
Speaker 9: Most so if we.
Speaker 14: Com mitigate, that given more, time it's gonna be more
Speaker 14: plays for him to make for.
Speaker 16: Sure and obviously for, him he had bad injury luck
Speaker 16: with some of his receivers hiss past. Offseason you, Know
