1
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: Can imbody Welcome to Between the Horns. It is Thursday,

2
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:18,119
Speaker 1: June thirteenth, Mile Simmons here with DeMarco far It is

3
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: just about eleven fifteen a in Pacific time here in

4
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: Agory Hills, California, and the Rams have completed their off

5
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: season program. D I love Sean MCVAYH Yeah, I would

6
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: love to play, for sure. I would love to play

7
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,480
Speaker 1: in this era number one, I would. This is great.

8
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: I look at Andrew Wworth, like I said, I just

9
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 1: get mad and jealous. I'm like thirty seven and wow,

10
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 1: this is perfect. But just you get your good work

11
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: in and then you reward you guys for good work

12
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: and participation and let them loose. Yeah, you know, once

13
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: you start training camp, football doesn't end until February. You

14
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 1: know how it goes, right, Yes, especially if you're good.

15
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: You get a chance to work and then vacation, you

16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: know what I mean, relax your mind and then come

17
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,639
Speaker 1: back to it. I think it's awesome. Well, the interesting

18
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: thing right now is that the Rams really had much

19
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 1: of their offseason program work go on way before this week.

20
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: If you remember, last year, mini camp was not extensive

21
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: at all. It was mostly a bunch of walkthroughs. So

22
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: this year it was kind of one practice day. The

23
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: offense and defense went eleven on eleven for a lot

24
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: of it, and it was mostly just okay, we're going

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: to get some jog through work in. And then the

26
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: younger guys, the twos, the three is, the four as

27
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: if there are, you know, they were on the other

28
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: field and they were working sort of by themselves and

29
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: going through things a little bit of a quicker tempo.

30
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: So it's interesting because basically, like you said, you got

31
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: all that good work in, you got all that good

32
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: participation in. You didn't have anybody holding out this year.

33
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: You know, Aaron Donald was there. It was great to

34
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: see him throughout the course of the offseason program. So

35
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: because of that, you know, your guys have basically earned

36
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: the right to go home, and you know what, go

37
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: train wherever you want to train, go to Cancoon, go

38
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: wherever it is you want to go, go to Belize

39
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: if you want to. Ha been do that for the

40
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: next six weeks. Stay on your stuff because once we

41
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: come back, we got to pick up where we left off, right.

42
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's gonna be hard to get out of shape,

43
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: you know, in a month. Even guys like that, Yeah,

44
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: not for me. Read the story the other day that

45
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,239
Speaker 1: the guy in Baltimore when we were there at the

46
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: big defensive tackle that came in and he's listed a

47
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: three forty and they said that he looks like he's

48
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: above his plane. Way Mebane, not Mebane. I think it

49
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: was Pierce, big dude, and Harbaugh had to send him

50
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: off because he wasn't in shape for mini camp, you

51
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So, I mean, it's it's different

52
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: when you watch the rams. They seem like they're in shape.

53
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 1: It seems like they're whisking through practice. There's not a

54
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: lot of double whistles, it's not a lot of shouting

55
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: going on. It just seems like guys are getting their

56
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 1: work done. So I mean, if you can get good

57
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: work out of your guys, if you're a head of

58
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: schedule or on schedule, and you're not making many mistakes,

59
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: and you look physically pretty good, like you look right now,

60
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: why not send them home earlier? Right? To me? And

61
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: to me, like, when you when you increase many camp

62
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: practices for most teams, you risk chances of injury as well,

63
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 1: So it almost balances itself out. So this is almost

64
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: the smart thing. To do as long as you're getting

65
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: good work out of it, right, exactly. And that's the

66
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: thing about structure, right, the things that they the things

67
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: that Sean McVay preaches. It's like above the neck is

68
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: so important, right, And if you get that classroom work in,

69
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: then you don't necessarily need to be out on the

70
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: field as much as you might otherwise because of the

71
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: way they structure practice, the way they take care of guys.

72
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: Jared Goff was talking about that this week, no doubt,

73
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: you know, and I'd read this power ranking Quarterback Power Ranking,

74
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: and they were listening guys one through thirty two. It's

75
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: funny case Kingdom is thirty two. Oh my god, it's hilarious,

76
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: and I think he's actually slashed. That's an inside joke

77
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: between me and model it is. But you might have

78
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: told that joke on the podcast. Okay, well go back

79
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: and look, all right, we won't say it again. But

80
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: he's thirty two. And they had Jared Goff ranked eighth,

81
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: but of the guys that were ranked ahead of them,

82
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: they listed all their numbers and they didn't for Jared

83
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: because it seems like you want to take away some

84
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: of his credit and give it to McVay like he's good,

85
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: but maybe he's not as good as this where we

86
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: rank him, but we have to right that makes sense,

87
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: Yes it does. But there's also a benefit of having

88
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: a guy like Jared Goff who can retain so much

89
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: of the playbook. You know, he's going into year three

90
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 1: of the offense. This is the way it should be.

91
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: You should be practicing less on offense than more. If

92
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: you've got to stay out there for three days just

93
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: to get the basic stuff right, then chances are year

94
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: changing quarterbacks. But have a guy like Jared Goff who's

95
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 1: getting better any year three of the offense. Yeah, you

96
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: should be a little more efficient on the practice field,

97
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. And I'm glad you start a

98
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: lot more efficient on the practice field. Yes, I'm glad

99
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: you went there with Jared Goff because there was the

100
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 1: news earlier on during the week. Actually it was the

101
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: end of the last week Carson Wentz contract extension for

102
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 1: the Eagles. He's with them now through the twenty twenty

103
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 1: four season. And you know you're talking about Carson Wentz

104
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: and a new contract, you have to bring up Jared

105
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: Goff because those two guys that are inextricably two quarterbacks

106
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: picked one to both teams traded up in order to

107
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: go get them. Now, I think the discussion rightfully turns

108
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: to Okay, when are the Rams going to extend Jared Goff? True?

109
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: You know, we don't know Philadelphia as well as well

110
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: as we know this football team here. So I think

111
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: there's a plan in place for Jared Goff, and I

112
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: think everybody is above board. This is not shocking. You know,

113
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,559
Speaker 1: Philadelphia did what they thought was right with Carson Wentz,

114
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you have to factor factor in his

115
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: injury history as well. You do, yeah, so when you're

116
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: making a deal a commitment to him. So either way,

117
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: no matter what, all Jared has to do is keep

118
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: winning and like you said, it would take care of himself.

119
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: And I believed him when we sat there in the

120
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: press conference and he said, look, I'm not even worried

121
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, you know it's hard for some people

122
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: to believe, but why would you. All you have to

123
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: do is focus on the next play, make sure that's

124
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: a success, and then move to the next play. All

125
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: this business will take care of itself. Exactly. That's quite

126
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: pretty much exactly what he said. We got that sound

127
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: from the press conference, will play it right here. Yeah,

128
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: you definitely think about it. But at the same time,

129
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: you know, I know none of that is even you know,

130
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: possible without playing well on the field and being available

131
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: on the field. So just continue to do what I've

132
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: been doing the last few years and be myself and

133
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: let it take care of itself. That's the smart prudent guy,

134
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: and I love that. But you have people, and this

135
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 1: is funny where it goes the opposite way, where you

136
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 1: buy the yacht before you get the deal, you know

137
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,039
Speaker 1: what I mean. Shouldn't do that, That's what I'm saying.

138
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: Like when he says, like I can think about it,

139
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: and you can think about you know, in a couple

140
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: of years, I'm going to put some more zeros in

141
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: this bank account. What could I buy with that? You know,

142
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,359
Speaker 1: that's fine to think that way. The wrong way is,

143
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: you know, I can pay for this later. Let me

144
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: buy it now and then I can pay for it

145
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: when I get the deal down the road. Well, no,

146
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: that's not how it goes. Yeah, that's not how it works.

147
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: There are enough things that you can buy as the

148
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: number one overall pick on your first contract anyway, right,

149
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,799
Speaker 1: like I am well informed enough to know that Jared

150
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: has at least purchased one car that is very very nice.

151
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: Really he's had two. Well, I was thinking more like

152
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: yacht you know, Okay, well, you know, I don't think

153
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: he's got okay, yeah, when you get that contract you

154
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: get from Gatting money. Right now, he's got like bmw

155
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: M six and Range Rover money, right. But I mean

156
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: at some point he's going to be at yacht money.

157
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: But just wait till you get it to get the Yes. Yeah,

158
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: that's all I'm saying. I think I do think it's

159
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: interesting and I think it probably speaks to the PR

160
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: training that the RAMS have gotten and actually shot out

161
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: to the RAMS PR staff for getting the PFWA PR

162
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: Team of the Year or last week. Yeah nice, Yeah,

163
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: big upst Artist Twineman, Tiffany White, Julia Farron, and Travis

164
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: Langer on that your toughest interviews. I mean they still

165
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: give interviews, they do. Yeah, they don't turn it down absolutely, yeah,

166
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: I mean, oh my god, just I don't know what

167
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: was more intimidating, right, Sue on the field, like when

168
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: his pads are on and he's getting ready to go out,

169
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: or Sue at his locker when people wait to talk man,

170
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: and like this, not like he did, and that speeds

171
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: to what we're talking about. You're gonna wait until he's ready.

172
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: But I mean, just that space he right right he commanded,

173
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: was like, wow, I get it now. Yes, it's a

174
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: very large man. What I'm getting too, though, is that

175
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: Jared Goff has said this. Now, we've heard it from

176
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 1: Dante Foul or we've heard it from Marcus Peters, and

177
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 1: I don't think it's just the pr thing, but I

178
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,119
Speaker 1: think I think it really is something that these guys feel.

179
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: But they've all said a version of when they're asked

180
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: about their contract. That will take care of itself, right,

181
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: And look, it's it's betting on yourself. And what else

182
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: could you ask for as an athlete, man? I mean

183
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: it's they show you the finish line, right, which I

184
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: think is the most dangerous thing. Okay, all you have

185
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: to do is go from here to here to get X,

186
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: Y and Z right. So it's and it benefits your

187
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 1: team and you as well. If you have your best

188
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: season ever, the team will thank you, the fans will

189
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: love you, and you'll get rewarded at the end. Tell

190
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: me that's not motivation. That is professional sport at its core. Yes,

191
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: that's the way it should be. You know, it's almost

192
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 1: like a prize fight. You go through one guy to

193
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: become champ or to get generational money. It's all out

194
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: there for you and everybody benefits. Well, that's what I

195
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: mean about. Like when Dante Fowler was talking about it, right,

196
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: he signs the one year deal and then it's I

197
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: know that I need to perform well and if I

198
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: do that, then the contract thing will take care of itself.

199
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: Right now, we were talking about cars, and I'm just

200
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: going to throw this in here as a sidebar because

201
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: I'm a big car guy. So on Dante Fowler's Instagram

202
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 1: story must have been Sunday, he revealed that he had

203
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: a brand new Lamborghini Urist coming off the truck. Now,

204
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,959
Speaker 1: this is one of the most beautiful cars I have

205
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: ever seen in my entire life. Yeah, and Aaron Donald

206
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: actually also had gotten one earlier this offseason, but Dante's

207
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: is like jet black blacked out rams. So media days

208
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: on Monday and he comes into the room we're in

209
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: and I was like, Dante, You've got to tell me

210
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: about this Lambeau and he's like, well, I was wanted

211
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: a Lamborghini, but those other ones, most of them they're

212
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: too small, you know, like you're so low to the ground.

213
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: They're like they're not good for what I need as

214
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: a person who needs a car, right, like in a

215
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: practical way. So then he's like, you know, but I

216
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: love these coop SUVs. I love that type. Look I

217
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 1: saw this came out, I was like, oh, dude, I

218
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: gotta drive one of those. So it goes, he test

219
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: drives it, and then he said that they didn't he

220
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: trusted over it in Miami, right, So he said they

221
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: didn't have the one that the exact one that he

222
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: wanted because he wanted it totally black, blacked out rims,

223
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 1: you know, just beautiful and because it is Batman, Yes exactly. Yeah.

224
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: So so because they didn't have it, he's like, I

225
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: had to order it straight from Italy. So comes from Italy,

226
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: gets off the truck and he's putting it on the

227
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: ends of the story and then he goes directly to Popeye.

228
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: See that's what I like. I love that absolutely pass Rusher. Yeah,

229
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: Fighter Pilot on Edge. Absolutely again man go out there

230
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 1: and lead the league, who says he can no one.

231
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: I mean think about it. Look, look you're in the

232
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 1: shadow of this guy here, who's going to see a

233
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: lot of attention and Aaron Donald. Yes, that's gonna open

234
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: you up on the edge. And you've got Clay Matthews. Now, yes,

235
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: I mean, look, you're gonna be getting a lot more

236
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: favorable past rushing situations than you probably ever have as

237
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: a pro. Right, and if you hit on half of them,

238
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: you're in the Pro Bowl. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yes,

239
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: So I mean light that fire, light that candle, and man,

240
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: just let it fly, you know. To me, it's so

241
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: interesting the way under control. Yes, I looked up my

242
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 1: old dumb it team yesterday and I hate even to

243
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: say that. Just penalties and stuff. And this is when

244
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: we get into too Jenevian Clowney. Right, the guy is

245
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: terrific if you look at all the while plays. But

246
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: I think he had more penalty yardage than tackles for

247
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: loss yardage. See, that's a big problem. You're right. I mean,

248
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: he's great, but then he gives up. So Fowler have

249
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: a great season, turn it loose, but be disciplined as well.

250
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: I feel like he was pretty disciplined last year, no doubt.

251
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 1: I mean, but I just and you know, I don't

252
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: have the penalty numbers in front of me. I can

253
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: look them up, but I don't feel like some of

254
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: the best edge rushers ever were undisciplined. Charles Haley, Charles

255
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: Haley came underneath a thousand percent times more than any

256
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: other defensive end that's ever won the Super Bowl. Sure,

257
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 1: but he was right eighty percent of the time. He

258
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: made big plays for his football team. Sorry, b wild,

259
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: b loose, be that guy, be a threat because, like

260
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 1: you said, that left tackle, right tackle, wherever you're on it,

261
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: chances are it's going to be just you and him.

262
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: All you gotta do is get around him. So he

263
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,319
Speaker 1: was penalized four times as a member of the Los

264
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: Angeles RMS last year. Two of them came in that

265
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: game against Seattle at home, Yeah, which was then memorable

266
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: because of course, later on in that game he had

267
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: that sack fumble of Russell Wilson that led to a touchdown. Right,

268
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: big plays, right, you know, it's like way back when

269
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: Aaron first started out, and he's gotten a lot better production,

270
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: equal tolerance. You know, you can make mistakes because because

271
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: you still make big plays. Well, he's eliminated them stakes

272
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 1: and kept making the big play. Yes, that's how he's matured.

273
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: So um, But as long as you're recking shop up

274
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: the field, if you're a you know, a rushman like

275
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: Fowler like Donald, they can forgive your mistakes, but just

276
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: don't be undisappointed. Is all I'm saying. Oh yeah, no, no,

277
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. And I think that that's something

278
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: that he can do. Randy Gregory led the league like

279
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,239
Speaker 1: he was a great pass rusher. I mean, he disrupts,

280
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: but he also led the league in fifteen year of penalties. Right,

281
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: that's not right, right, right, right, right? Um? But but

282
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: to get to get back to golf a little bit too, Um.

283
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: I think at this point what we know is that

284
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: he's going to make an average annual value of over

285
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: thirty million dollars, right, Like, that's just where we are

286
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: with quarterbacks in the quarterback market, and from his standpoint

287
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: right now, it's a matter of time. Now. The thing

288
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: we thought about last year with contracts and Aaron Donald

289
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: and he also had Khalil Mack, Well, which one of

290
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 1: them do you think wanted to sign first? Right? Remember

291
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: we had this conversation because who to be the one

292
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 1: to set the market and then exceed it as the

293
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: highest paid defensive player in the NFL. So turned out

294
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: Aaron signed first, and then a day later we had

295
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: Khalil Mack and then he got traded to Chicago and

296
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: then signed the largest deal for defensive player. But I

297
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: think right now, in some ways you've had, Okay, Carson

298
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: Wentz from that draft class he just signed, But then

299
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: there are also a lot of quarterbacks out there who

300
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: are either on the last year of their deals going

301
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 1: in things like that. So in the same draft class,

302
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: you also have Dak Prescott. Then the previous draft class

303
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: you have Jameis Winston and Tampa and Marcus Mariota in Tennessee.

304
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: So a lot of these things have to shake themselves out.

305
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: So in that way, if you're Jared Goff, it's kind

306
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: of like, all right, well, those guys probably are not

307
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: as good as me. Basically, they're definitely not as good

308
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: as me. Because Carson Wentz his team went to the

309
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, but he wasn't the quarterback then he was hurt.

310
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: You Also, I mean they just went to the playoffs

311
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: last year, but at that point, Nick Foles was the

312
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: quarterback as well. Right, so Dak Prescott is really the

313
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 1: only one with a comparable resume to Jared Goff, and

314
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 1: even Dak Prescott hasn't been in the Super Bowl. That's

315
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: your race there, right, When does Dallas dare I say,

316
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: pull the trigger on, you know, re upping Dak Prescott. Well,

317
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 1: and Dak Prescott is in a different situation too because

318
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: he's going into the last year of his contract, so

319
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: they would in theory have to franchise him next year

320
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: because he was that fourth round pick and Jared Goff

321
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 1: was of course picked in the first round fifth year option.

322
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: It kind of mundies up the race for those two

323
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: guys when you think Prescott and Goff and the race

324
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: for the extension. But like you said, Philadelphia had to

325
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: do with Philadelphia had to do with their quarterback, you know, yes,

326
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: for the way he plays and his injury history. I

327
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: think they had to get that deal done. And then,

328
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: like Carson Wentz even said in his press conference, it's

329
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: it's a win win for you know, for both sides.

330
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: But you know, next up, I mean, I think I

331
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: want to be the last guy to sign in this deal. Yeah,

332
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: and the chances are it's probably going to be Jared

333
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: Goff the last guy to sign the deal. Yeah. So,

334
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: I mean, but like you said, first of all, you

335
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: have to take care of first things. First, you have

336
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: to go out there and play well, right, Yeah, because

337
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: right now we're speculating, we're assuming and everybody. The money's

338
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: all over the place, But you still have to go

339
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: out and play well first. Yes, And that's where his

340
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: focus should be. And that's exactly where it is. Yes, yes,

341
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 1: And to that end, I think Jared Goff has said

342
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: and Shane Waldron pass game coordinator, head quarterbacks coach, also

343
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: said it this week that there's a mastery that's coming

344
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: with Jared Goff and the offense. He's feeling more comfortable,

345
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: feeling more confident in it. We've also got some sound

346
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: from Jared Goff on this and we'll play it for

347
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: you here. Yeah. I think, I think definitely. I think

348
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: just some more reps you get, the more time on

349
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: task and the more times you see looks and are

350
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: able to execute plays that have different different defensive looks,

351
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: and it's just about time. It's about anything else, anything

352
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: else you do, It's just about time and continue to

353
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: get better at this is true. It's funny. Uh seeing

354
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: Todd at the press converse. I know we're gonna get

355
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: into this, but it answered a lot of questions for

356
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: me just from seeing the guy. Okay, oh, okay, shut

357
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 1: your mouth, you know, because I think that's the mission

358
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 1: he's on. What do you I don't know. He looks terrific, Todd.

359
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 1: He looks exactly like he should look going into you know,

360
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: training camp this point right, even without being in OTAs. Wow,

361
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: he looks fantastic. He looks in shut your mouth mode.

362
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 1: But just if you have any doubts about Todd Gurleser

363
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: running back, go back and look at that stretch. I

364
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 1: want to say, from Seattle to Seattle and how the

365
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: Rams closed out games, and look who was the feature

366
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: product of the Rams closing out those games. He was

367
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,639
Speaker 1: absolutely killing Green Bay and the Rolex play. Yeah, I

368
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 1: mean ripping off the long run. If we were in

369
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,719
Speaker 1: SEC country, we would sound like coach, just give him

370
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: the ball, you know, I'm dead serious, just giving the ball.

371
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: That's how he was playing. But also to finish out,

372
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: watching Jared Goff and watching McVeigh catch defense is off guard,

373
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 1: making big plays when they need to and just being poised.

374
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: So just watching him mature and not only rip off,

375
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: you know, playoff to play in the first quarter, but

376
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: when the game is on the line, when you have

377
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: the lead or you need the lead, watching him be

378
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,479
Speaker 1: just almost masterful in certain situations. They've done a lot

379
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 1: of situational work too, over the course of the off

380
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 1: season program. And it's interesting because when a team finishes

381
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: second in scoring, right, right, you don't and after finishing

382
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: first the year before, you don't necessarily think, well, they've

383
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: got to make real good improvements to their offense, right like,

384
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: you just kind of don't. But if you look at

385
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: the red zone scoring, that's a place where they really

386
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: clearly can get better, right and goal to ghost situations too,

387
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: they are very middle of the pack to almost even,

388
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 1: you know, the like that middle third, the bottom half

389
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 1: of the middle third there. But if see if Todd

390
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,479
Speaker 1: takes it in there, that improves your red zone scoring.

391
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 1: But oh, I hear you. You also give Aaron Rodger

392
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: was another shot at it, which is a no no.

393
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: And in Denver was the same thing. You had it

394
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: first in goal from the eight, so you you have

395
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: a shot to win the game. Most people wait until

396
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: your last opportunity to throw at the end zone. Well

397
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 1: McVeigh took it first. Try to throw at the tide there,

398
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: so you wind up playing for the field goal. Get

399
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: your two score lead. There's no way they can catch

400
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: you when the game go home. But see what I mean.

401
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,920
Speaker 1: But if you hit there but touchdown, you you give

402
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: them more time. Yeah yeah, yeaha. But there were ways

403
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,719
Speaker 1: you could have improved your red zone scoring, but sometimes

404
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 1: you couldn't to win the football game. Yes, it was smarter,

405
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: it was proven to take the three points. Well, you know,

406
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: right there lies damn lies and statistics, right, you know,

407
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: we can make these things say anything that we want

408
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: to say. In some ways. That's why I say, you know,

409
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: it's nitpicking when you have a team that finished a

410
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: second in scoring. Yeah, but that's the that's the luxury.

411
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: Though you can knitpick. You were able to do all

412
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 1: of these things in the offseason program because you have

413
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: a lot of cont annuity on your offensive line excuse me,

414
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: on your offensive unit in general. Well, I don't consider

415
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 1: it nitpicking. There were some opportunities that they had and

416
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: they'd like like Minnesota, right, Jonathan Franklin Myers bailed them

417
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: out with the strip sack at the end right. I mean,

418
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: but there was a time when you as an offense

419
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 1: had to I think ice the game or you had

420
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: a chance to extend the lead and basically kill the game,

421
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: and you went three and out or something like that.

422
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: So you can improve. And if you go back and

423
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: look at Aaron Rodgers, look at the best Roethlisberger, Tom Brady,

424
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: all these guys, it's we call it nitpicking, but it's

425
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: areas where they can improve, and when they do, that's

426
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: when you start calling that guy elite. Yeah, yeah, so yeah,

427
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: there's areas he can get better at, just like Aaron Donald,

428
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: you know. And we call it nitpicking, but they call

429
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: it trying to be a perfectionist, which is what you

430
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: want out of your quarterback. Yes, that's what you pay

431
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: the guy for, right, right, That's why you draft him

432
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 1: number one overall because you believe that he can take

433
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: those steps that can make him elite. Though it may

434
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 1: get those details. Right, If Brady gets you on the ropes,

435
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: you're dead. If Rogers gets you, get you gets you

436
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: on the ropes, you're dead, you know what I mean,

437
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, And that's now too. So when Jared Goff

438
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: has those and Sean McVay. Same thing when you have

439
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: a chance to extend the lead to ice the game.

440
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: It's a little nitpicky thing when you come away with

441
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: a W. But just be better there. Ice the football game,

442
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: make it even more one sided, yeah than it is. Yeah, yes, exactly,

443
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 1: And that's part of what the Rams were working on

444
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: during the offseason program. I think Gerald Everett has a

445
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 1: chance to be a good red zone target. And the

446
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 1: other thing, too is Josh Reynolds. Now that he's gotten

447
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: a lot of snaps, he's shown that he can play

448
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: make plays in this league. It's another guy that really

449
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: can become a good red zone target because he's got

450
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 1: that great vertical ability. He's six three in plays like

451
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 1: he's sixty three. I think he's gonna be a problem

452
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 1: for let's say you play sixteen regular season games, let's

453
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: say four or five teams, they just don't have that

454
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 1: fourth corner or the fourth dB, you know, and he

455
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 1: becomes a big issue. Or if he's got to fill

456
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: in for one of the starters. He's plenty capable, knows

457
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: the offense. JR. Goss trusts him. He's very valuable. But

458
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: at some point, and when we talk about changing personnel groups.

459
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: If you did bring the extra receiver and it's him right,

460
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: if you don't have enough guys to cover, he can

461
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: beat you for big plays yep, first downs and touchdowns.

462
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: So yeah, I love it when you when you have

463
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: a top three that you invest a lot of time in,

464
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: but you also can make time as a coaching staff

465
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: and there's enough room to develop the fourth guy. You

466
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: know what I mean, You don't neglect anybody. I think

467
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: that's tremendous. It's a positive problem that happen to me.

468
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 1: You've got all these guys who can make plays and

469
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: it's up to him not to be frustrated. And I

470
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: hate to say, no your role, but you know no,

471
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: your catches are going to be limited with the guys

472
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: ahead of you. But when you do have an opportunity

473
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: to make the most of it, I don't think there's

474
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: anything wrong with that. People having set role as long

475
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 1: as and Sean McVay says this soften it's got to

476
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 1: be clear, open and honest communication that is ongoing R right.

477
00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 1: So if this, if a player knows their role and

478
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: knows how to dominate that role, then that to me

479
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 1: is something where you don't necessarily get as frustrated as

480
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: you might be if you're not being told exactly what

481
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: the deal is. I think that's for anything. It's funny

482
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,800
Speaker 1: in team sports, especially in football, all of a sudden year,

483
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 1: fourth or fifth guy at whatever position becomes the most

484
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 1: important guy to winning in key situations because you have

485
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: the advantage with him. And when you have a guy

486
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 1: that accepts that, that that can be patient and wait

487
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: for his opportunities, right and not get frustrated when other

488
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: guys are making plays and start pouty. What was the guy?

489
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,639
Speaker 1: And God? He I don't want to make fun of

490
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,199
Speaker 1: the dead, but he was so jealous of Megatron in

491
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,360
Speaker 1: Detroit that he started following up plays on purpose. They

492
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: were like five widers and I think he came through

493
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: the rams at one point. I can't remember his name,

494
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: but he passed away. So I don't want to speak

495
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: out of the dead. But yes, but that's the other

496
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: side of it where you're not being a team player, right,

497
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Right, they're saying our best

498
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: option to win is let's go through Megatron, let's support him, right, No,

499
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: he's saying it should be opposite. So I'm so mad.

500
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 1: I'm going to foul up place for you. But when

501
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: you have guys that have that buy in, that understand,

502
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 1: and when you can communicate to those guys, at some point, Son,

503
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: you're going to be the most important player on the

504
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: field for us. And then back that up with play

505
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 1: calls and plays. You see guys, you see your top

506
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: three guys get better, and also that fourth string guy

507
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: get better as well, right, because he's pushing them big time.

508
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: Exactly exactly, So as you alluded to it, let's just

509
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: get into Todd Gurley here, because we had not heard

510
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: from him in a while and then we saw him

511
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: jump on Tuesday. You're a comedy guy. You like stand up, right,

512
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: I do. I do like vintage stand up. I actually

513
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 1: just watched Eddie Murphy's Delirious a week or two. It,

514
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: Oh my god, groundbreaking. I died laughing. It hurt. So

515
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: that was very funny, really made when that first came out,

516
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 1: I hurt myself. There are some things that do not

517
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: hold up in that because it's language that is now

518
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 1: very very offensive. You can't put that out now. You

519
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: can't out blazing saddles number right. Yeah, but back in

520
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six, I mean or eighty three whenever it

521
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: was that he did that. I you understand because these

522
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 1: things are at this point, you know, thirty five, almost

523
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 1: forty years ago, and language shifts, you know, culture, culture shifts.

524
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 1: But these a lot of what he was making fun

525
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 1: of in there, it still holds up. True. He took

526
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 1: a lot of his I want to say, took a

527
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 1: lot of his stuff, but gained inspiration from Richard Pryor. Right. Yeah,

528
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: So Richard Pryor has the Wanted album and there's a

529
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: part where he talks about Jim Brown, right boy, Jim Brown,

530
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: and how he used to play what his interpretation of

531
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: Jim Brown playing football was sure Jim would walk back

532
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 1: to the huddle and say give me the ball. But

533
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 1: Jim is third in a mile and we need this.

534
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: Give me the ball, you know. And I mean when

535
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 1: I spun around and saw Todd Gurley standing there waiting

536
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 1: to speak, he was last, right after Charica the europe

537
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: was speaking, I jumped because he was, oh, damn big,

538
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: you know, like, oh my god, that's stock. What's up man,

539
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: I haven't seen you in a while. Good to see you,

540
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 1: you know. But he had to look on his face

541
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: like I'm good. I can't wait to show these people

542
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 1: I'm good or keep talking yes right, yes, made me

543
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,919
Speaker 1: say okay, I'll stop right. I thought one of his

544
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: most interesting answers was right here, we're gonna play it.

545
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: He was talking about you know, oh what he since

546
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: you have not been out there, what he've been doing?

547
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: Things like that. I don't feel like I need to

548
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 1: do ota. I mean, I know what I've I've done. Um,

549
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: I know what I can do. Yeah, knows what he's done,

550
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: knows what he can do. Basically he's saying, knows what

551
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: I know what I still can do. Ye. So you know,

552
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: he doesn't look like a guy that's out of shape

553
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 1: or hasn't been doing anything. Uh huh, yeah, he just

554
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: hasn't been doing it in the view in view of public,

555
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:57,200
Speaker 1: right yeah, right, yeah. So just seeing him the other day,

556
00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, okay, I get it now. And then

557
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: I went back and started watching like vintage Girly, Like

558
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 1: I said, the early part of the year. Now, if

559
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 1: they said that whatever happened to him happened early, I

560
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 1: damn sure couldn't see it in the video, especially at

561
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: the end of games like you just said, when we

562
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 1: had things like the Rolex play you know you saw it.

563
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,360
Speaker 1: You know that he was still really controlling the game, right,

564
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: So that's interesting. I also thought it was it was

565
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: sort of notable what he was saying about people and

566
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: the way they talked about the knee and all that

567
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: and why it doesn't does or does not bother him.

568
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 1: So we got that sound here. I mean, I've been

569
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: hearing stuff out of my life, you know, just whatever,

570
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 1: growing up, hearing comments or whatever that is. So man,

571
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff you know, don't don't really get

572
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: to me. Um, I feel like I do a great job,

573
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: got a great supporting cast, whether it's all my friends,

574
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: my family's, my teammates. So um, like I said, um,

575
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 1: it's football. It's the game I've been playing my whole life.

576
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's nothing new to me. You know,

577
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: I know what I'm capable of. Um, you know, I

578
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: know what type of person I am, So you know,

579
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 1: it's no big deal to me. He just keeps saying thing,

580
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 1: I know what I'm capable of, and so I'm not

581
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: gonna say like Todd is lying, that's not what I mean.

582
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: But I think when he says I know how to

583
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 1: tune this stuff out, I think he also knows what

584
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 1: to let in. Right, That is more or less maybe

585
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 1: motivating for him. That does that makes sense. That's that's

586
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: the word I picked up on this. It's it's motivating him.

587
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: You know sometimes when you're when you're when you're beat

588
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: up or banged up, and it seems like the world

589
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: is speculating um, when it's true, you act a certain way,

590
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like you let it in

591
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: and you start to repeat things you've heard. Um, when

592
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: you're defiant, it's it seems like you're you're motivated. Like, Okay, um,

593
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 1: you haven't really spoke to me because I haven't said anything,

594
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: and I'm the only one that knows me. So when

595
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: I hear somebody tell me, tell tell the world how

596
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: I feel without even talking to me. Okay, well you're

597
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: on the list now. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're on the

598
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: list now. So the next time you see me in

599
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: the box, you know, spike in the football and you

600
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: come with a question, keep the same energy, you know

601
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: what I mean? Yes? Right, right, yes, right, that's that's

602
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: what I picked up. I'm like, oh okay, well that's

603
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 1: all I needed to see, right, Yeah. It it just

604
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: it feels like Todd Gurley is setting himself up to

605
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: go out and score a bunch of touchdowns in the

606
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: first few weeks of the season, right and then be

607
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: like I thought, my knee hurt. Well, I mean, you know,

608
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: score a bunch of touchdowns. I mean, just be effective

609
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: for as long as possible. And I think the Rams

610
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: are doing a great job with what they have. Like

611
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: you said, Malcolm Brown is coming coming back is going

612
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: to be huge because you look at them and the

613
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: way they were going to close out games when Malcolm

614
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: was healthy. You know, Todd gets you let's say, from

615
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: twenty to twenty, bring in Malcolm for three plays, let

616
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: him rip off a few at the defense. Why Todd's recharging?

617
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: You know they did do that, they budge And then

618
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: when you lose Malcolm, you change things a little bit.

619
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: You have to over rely on one guy. So now

620
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 1: you've got Malcolm Brown back, plus Todd Gurley, who is

621
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: going to be healthy hopefully with this offseason, and then

622
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 1: you've got a young speedster as well, you know, so

623
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 1: you've got a good supporting cast plus your quarterbacks getting better. Yep,

624
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think for Todd

625
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: it's like Jared goff focus on getting you right. And

626
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 1: I think he's right. He doesn't really need OTAs he

627
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: knows where the end zone is. Yeah, you know what

628
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: I mean? Yea, yeah, it makes perfect sense. Like I said,

629
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 1: it all came together before he spoke, when I saw

630
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: him standing there, I get it. Okay. Yeah, how much

631
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: do you think a running back needs in things like preseason?

632
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: You know, I have this conversation with Marshall more or

633
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: less just training camp. I actually should say, because he

634
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: we all we already know he's not playing in the

635
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: preseason game like that, that's obvious. You need as much

636
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: as you need. It's funny and that I'm only speaking

637
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: for my position. When for a second, when when you

638
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: you know when you were in good preseason mode and

639
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 1: then when you can go to regular season mode, it's

640
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: just you just know when your body's ready. Okay. But

641
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: asking Marshall about running backs and he would always say,

642
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: I just need a few in preseason just to get

643
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: my rhythm, you know what I mean, and then I'll

644
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: be fine. You don't need a lot of contact, you

645
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: just need some rhythm plays, you know what I mean.

646
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 1: I think if running backs had their druthers, it would

647
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: be I'm gonna take these first ten carries. You guys

648
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: aren't going to tackle me, and then I'm going to

649
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: exit the game and then you can start playing live football.

650
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 1: That's all they needed, right, You don't need the extra

651
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: at the end, but not much to get going. Yeah.

652
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: We saw Stephen Jackson do it for years, right, Yeah,

653
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: not play, not play, put him in ice until the

654
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: regular season and then he would just be Stephen Jackson

655
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: once the game started. Well, it seemed like last year,

656
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: you know, when we went to Baltimore and we saw

657
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,239
Speaker 1: those joint practices, Todd Grilly's doing some of that. And

658
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: then you come back and then you continue to try

659
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: to put guys in competitive situations. And you couldn't practice

660
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: against the Charges last year because you were playing them three.

661
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: I believe that will happen this year, as with practice

662
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: with the Raiders. So we will see I think Todd

663
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: Gurley in some of those situations where he will have

664
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: the chance to go out and practice against a team

665
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: whereas you would, and maybe that's how you get those

666
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: reps right, Like, you don't need to get tackled. You're

667
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: not going to get tackled in practice against another team,

668
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: but you can at least run things at a full

669
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: speed manner. And it's a controlled situation, in a controlled environment,

670
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: you can make it thud thud tempo where no one

671
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:30,959
Speaker 1: no one's getting taken to the ground. I think this

672
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: benefits him. You know, you get josted a little bit,

673
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 1: you get a chance to brace off, you know, when

674
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,719
Speaker 1: you have your right knee up, left foot back, you know,

675
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 1: carrying the ball with your left hand, you get to

676
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: dip with that left shoulder and test that a little

677
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: bit and not get taken to the ground. You know

678
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: what I mean. Yes, So, I mean all this stuff

679
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 1: will help build up to the regular season. But like

680
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: you said, as if I can limit his you know,

681
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: his bumps or his tackles, or how many carries he

682
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: takes between July and August, it's only going to help

683
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: you in September, of course, when you have the right

684
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: to give it to him as much as he wants.

685
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: Not only you need in September, but even further down

686
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: the road right November, December, January, and you hope even

687
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: into February, where the wear and tear is not as

688
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: much as it was in the past this past year.

689
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: That's the other part, And I think this is going

690
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: to be interesting, and it's up to the training staff,

691
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: Reggie Scott's training crew. They're great. I'm not going to

692
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: put Todd on a pitch count. You know, if I

693
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: have to give it to him thirty five, I have

694
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: to give it to him thirty five, and then you

695
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 1: rehab him for next week and get him ready again,

696
00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: because I'm not going to be worried about December in September.

697
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm only worried about September now. I need to win here, yes,

698
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: right now, So if it calls for me to have

699
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 1: my best back, I need him on the field. That

700
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: is the great part about the NFL. There's only sixteen

701
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: weeks that you've got sixteen games. Every single game is

702
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,239
Speaker 1: so important because it all adds up in the end.

703
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: It's not like baseball. And I tend to think that

704
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: even in baseball, every game is important, right because when

705
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: it get you get down to the penn At race

706
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, I'm one game out, well, you

707
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: know you had a game she could have won in April,

708
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: would help you right now? No, yeah, that's that. But

709
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 1: just the importance that gets placed on every single game

710
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 1: you really need to win every single game as much

711
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: as you can. Yeah, and for guys like him, every

712
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: play ends in a car wreck. Yeah. You know, every

713
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 1: single time you touch the ball, it's never gonna be

714
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: one guy hit you. You know, it's gonna be at

715
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 1: least three. Yeah. Yeah, And that's that's why it's so

716
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: important to have Todd Gurley on this maintenance plan that

717
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 1: seemed to be working, and both coach and player are

718
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 1: pretty happy with. Yeah, that's good. I think he's Look,

719
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 1: he's not just a big guy that can run, you know,

720
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,479
Speaker 1: the typical SEC back. He's pretty damn smart with the ball. Yeah.

721
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson when we talk about how do they talk

722
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: about Lamar Jackson and running the quarterback from Baltimore? Right? Yes?

723
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: And RG three have to be smarter with your body, right, Yes,

724
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 1: we can't run him as much. Yes, Okay, you never

725
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,880
Speaker 1: say that about Russell Wilson because he's smart. When he runs,

726
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 1: he never gives you a clean shot. He was a

727
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: baseball player, That's why you know who's that well. Todd

728
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 1: knows how to run as well. Yeah, not to avoid contact,

729
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,479
Speaker 1: but to avoid big hits. It's not like he gets

730
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 1: his head taken off every other run. No, he doesn't. Right,

731
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: he's a pretty good running back though, right, I think

732
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: that there's reason to be encouraged by what we're seeing

733
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 1: from Todd Gurley. Yeah, now is that definitive. No, it's not.

734
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 1: And I think we're not going to have any definitive

735
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: answers until after the first quarter of the regular season,

736
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 1: right once we get to October, then we'll really know

737
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,320
Speaker 1: what the deal is here. But I think at least

738
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 1: for now, you see Todd Gurley, you hear from Todd Gurley,

739
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like this is a situation where the

740
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,879
Speaker 1: sky is falling, no doubt. Um, look it, it got

741
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 1: sore on you, and you know you have to take

742
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 1: some plays off. It happens. So now you've had an

743
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: entire offseason to work on the problem, get everything stronger. Yeah,

744
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: you know. So, I think he'll come back and he'll

745
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,879
Speaker 1: be the same guy that we saw that the guy

746
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 1: that was the MVP can end it at one point,

747
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: I think we'll see that guy. Well, speaking of guys

748
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: that we hope will come back and be the same

749
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,439
Speaker 1: guy that we saw in the past, Cooper Cup has

750
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: been doing a lot during the offseason program and I

751
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: think it's really encouraging, especially considering even I don't know,

752
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 1: ten years ago, ACL tears and ACL surgeries and a

753
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 1: CL recoveries were not easy. Is certainly not the right word,

754
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: but it was more of a process than it seems

755
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: like it has become now. I think the recovery process

756
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 1: from that has become so much more streamlined. Yeah, for

757
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 1: the player's benefit, thank god. I mean, look like you said,

758
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: that used to be. You know, take a guy out

759
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 1: to the glue factory, right, if you you know tor

760
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: your ACL, that was pretty much it. I think medical

761
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: science has caught up. I think the athlete is a

762
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 1: little bit better. I think the game has changed that

763
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: allows for you know, longer rehab, better rehab. So watching

764
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: Cooper Cup come back and look like Cooper Cup great

765
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,759
Speaker 1: for him. And this is gonna sound so mean, I

766
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: could care less about him. I think I'm happy to

767
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,319
Speaker 1: have Cooper cut back for Jared Goff. It just makes

768
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 1: your quarterback. I mean think about this, right, when you

769
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 1: have that outlet, that guy you know you can go

770
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: to in a pinch, it makes it. It makes the

771
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: offense so much more dynamic. I think about it as

772
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: a dad, right, Um, I got the most important people

773
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: in the car when we leave the restaurant. I got

774
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: both kids, I got my wife, were gone right, Okay,

775
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: kids start screaming. I left my woodbye at the restaurant

776
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: and I'm halfway home. I'm thinking, I'm we can just

777
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 1: go home. Everyone's happy and satisfied. But then she's gonna

778
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 1: scream her head off. I gotta go back and get

779
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: the woobee, you know what I mean? Yeah, for her benefit.

780
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: It makes her feel better, right, Yes, this is good

781
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: for Jared to have him back on the field, you

782
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So makes hops Jared goff security.

783
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 1: The woobee makes him feel better whenever you need a

784
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,919
Speaker 1: play there here, whatever word it is that you're saying,

785
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,760
Speaker 1: how do you spell that woobee? Yes, I've never spelled

786
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 1: wooby before. Is it just a blanket? Is it like

787
00:37:55,719 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: I think it's wau no something wooby? Yeah? Okay, okay.

788
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: Is it just like a little blanket? Like I don't

789
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what this is. Is it a doll?

790
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: Never heard of a woody? Is it a doll? Is

791
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: it a pillow? Safety blanket? You know, the blanket the

792
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,879
Speaker 1: kid has for his whole life, all right, So it's

793
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 1: like Linus's blue blanket. Yes, didn't you have one? I know,

794
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:19,120
Speaker 1: poor I had a Mickey pillow that explains that explains everything.

795
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 1: I mean, yes, that's it. You never had a security

796
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 1: blanket model that that explains it. I'm an only child

797
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: with that explains we are. We are sitting in the

798
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: comfy chairs. It's like I'm on the couch. We can

799
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 1: like really put me through therapy. I mean, if you want,

800
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 1: does that hurt not not having a security blanket? Man?

801
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 1: I really know, no, there's I have no. This is

802
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,240
Speaker 1: gonna get weird. So let's just listen to Cooper cup

803
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 1: as he was asked about you know, if he's feeling

804
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: like he's good to go or if he needs more

805
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 1: of the summer to make sure he's right. Well, I

806
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 1: think there's two things point you. I mean, obviously you

807
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 1: want to go play football right now. I think everyone

808
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: in this facility is like, let's get this thing going. Um.

809
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,280
Speaker 1: But I think there's also a part of that. Anyone

810
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,800
Speaker 1: is facility would also say you take this six weeks

811
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: to prepare yourself for training camp, um and for the

812
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: season ahead. So I'm in that same boat. I'm ready

813
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: to prepare, make sure that when I head into training camp. Um, yeah,

814
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: my body's in the best shape it can possibly be,

815
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 1: and I'm excited about having this time to be able

816
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 1: to count attack that. Is there anything other than full

817
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 1: speed contact that you haven't tested yet? I mean that?

818
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 1: Or is that? You know? It's it. You know, it's

819
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 1: a work in progress. It's one of those things that

820
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 1: you know, I trust Reggie and Byron and um what

821
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: they lay out for me. And like I've said before,

822
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: I don't think I don't get too far ahead of myself. Um,

823
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: come in, look at what the week has for me,

824
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: and UM, you know, have a quick discussion about what

825
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: that's gonna look like and how we're gonna attack it,

826
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: and um, then go forward on. So you know, whatever

827
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: they're gonna throw at me, you're gonna have to talk

828
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: to Reggie and Byron about it. But you know, my

829
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 1: whole thing is coming in Monday, making sure that I

830
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: take care of what they put in from me. So

831
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 1: he sounds like, what, no, just well, well, I just

832
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: a guy that loves to compete, you know, no doubt

833
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: about it. And that's that's the hard part for him

834
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: because he wants to go out there and compete and

835
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: you have to slow him down. Yes, yeah, so he

836
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: said they got it in his head. You just heard

837
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 1: him repeat it. The key is the next six weeks

838
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: is get ready for training camp and then the regular season.

839
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 1: This is stages. But the competitor in him every time

840
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: he see every time he sees a ball in the air,

841
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 1: that's mine. It should be me. I should be making

842
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: those plays. That's that's got to be tough for him. Yeah,

843
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure that it is. And I think it was

844
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 1: probably tough for him going through last season two after

845
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,720
Speaker 1: he tore that acl against the Seahawks in that second

846
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: game in Week ten that you had against the division rival,

847
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 1: and I think just going through that, what he said

848
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: before was the most difficult part was kind of being

849
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,879
Speaker 1: separated from your teammates because you can only rehab and

850
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: you know you're not in the meeting rooms. You've got

851
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: to make sure you're doing everything on the knee that

852
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 1: you have to and things like that. So now that

853
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,120
Speaker 1: he's back out there, now that he's not only doing

854
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: stuff on the side, he's been able to go through

855
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,920
Speaker 1: jog throughs as well. When the Rams are just going

856
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 1: through their eleven on eleven, but they're not going full speed.

857
00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: So that's why he can get in there even though

858
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: he's got on the red jersey to signify no contact

859
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: and things like that, and he actually said that that's

860
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: been really helpful for him. I mean, I'm incredibly thankful

861
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: for the opportunities to Bill go out and being the

862
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: huddle again, break a huddle, go out there and be

863
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 1: able to see a defense out in front of me.

864
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: It's one of those things I think it's underrated, is

865
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 1: the repetitions, even when you're not going full speed yet

866
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: being able to see a defense, be able to make

867
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: decisions based on what they're showing you, and then be

868
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 1: able to react once you know the ball snapped and

869
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 1: you know, you try to anticipate as much as you

870
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 1: can what you're going to get and have a plan

871
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: for how you're gonna attack each play, but being able

872
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 1: to see that react and get you your spots and um,

873
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's invaluable reps for me. You

874
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: better watch him, you know, in practice, because he'll he'll

875
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 1: try to sneak one on you if you're not looking.

876
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: You know, he'll go out there with the starters and

877
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:47,919
Speaker 1: try to go full speed. So you have like true

878
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: him like a kid with sunscreen. Come all over here,

879
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: get out of the sun for him, you know. But yeah,

880
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: getting those reps when you're rehabbing, I think it's huge

881
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 1: because you don't lose anything mentally, you know what I mean.

882
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 1: But to go back to your point about you know

883
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 1: it was tough for him when he first heard his knee. Well,

884
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 1: that's a little bit different. Your body, your brain, and

885
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,279
Speaker 1: your knee aren't communicating because there's a problem there. Now

886
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 1: that you're close and you actually feel pretty good, like

887
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 1: you're on the field doing stuff, but you're still not

888
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,800
Speaker 1: in there that this is the worst time. This is

889
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 1: the hard part where you really have to trust your

890
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,919
Speaker 1: training staff and they really have to watch you. Yes,

891
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,320
Speaker 1: because you want to rush it well, because yes, there

892
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 1: has to be a clear process that is very structured.

893
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: And that's why I think he's this kind of guy

894
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: where he says, I'm looking at this week and this

895
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,320
Speaker 1: week only because I don't want to look too far ahead.

896
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: I just want to know what do I have to

897
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: do this week? And I think that probably keeps him

898
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: focused more, no doubt, because if you start looking to

899
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: you know, where the ultimate goals are, then it probably

900
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 1: can make you want to say, oh, I want to

901
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 1: get there faster a little bit. And it's funny, you

902
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: know the business of football. Cooper Cup is rehabbing. They

903
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,080
Speaker 1: need him for September, right, Morgan Fox is out there

904
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: right now competing for a job, you know what I mean.

905
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: It's also different though, because Morgan Fox tour his ACL

906
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: in May or late it was either late May early June,

907
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 1: and then you got that from Cup in November. But

908
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,320
Speaker 1: some people have to go a sap, you know what

909
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 1: I mean. I mean. Kevin Peterson also is in that

910
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: same boat with Morgan Fox, right, but this speaks to

911
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 1: where you were before you got hurt in the first place. Okay, yes,

912
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:25,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I hear you. Yes, some people,

913
00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 1: when you have that same injury, you have to like

914
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 1: he says, it's good for him to go through the walkthroughs.

915
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 1: You know, some people have to go as fast as

916
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 1: they can right now with exactly where Cooper Cup is

917
00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 1: in his rehab. You know what I mean? Yes, I

918
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 1: hear you, right, I hear on that. What else do

919
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,760
Speaker 1: you feel like we learned during the off season program? Uh? Well,

920
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: you know, and this is funny, um, you know, watching

921
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,000
Speaker 1: Brian Allen and watching Joseph Noeboom. I mean, we're gonna

922
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 1: talk a lot about these guys, I feel all season

923
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: long anyway. Yes, um, but just watching these two guys

924
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: go about the word getting repetitions, you know they're going

925
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 1: to be fine. They're surrounded by either good coaching or

926
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 1: great players, a great experience that can help in an

927
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: offense that's offensive line friendly. But it really does make

928
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: you appreciate Roger Staffeld, you know, and how good he was.

929
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: So I mean, there's a lot to live up to

930
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: on that left side for Joseph Noeboom. So that's the

931
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,399
Speaker 1: one thing I came away thinking, like, Okay, well they're

932
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 1: ready to start now, are they ready to excel and

933
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,479
Speaker 1: be just as good as the guys they were placing? Sure,

934
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yes, yeah, And that's tough,

935
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 1: especially because when you are a veteran guy, there's so

936
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 1: many things that you know, right right, So Andrew Whitworth,

937
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: John Sullivan and Roger Staffold from center over, there's probably

938
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 1: nothing that they had not seen in the NFL on

939
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: a situation over the course of the last two years

940
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,719
Speaker 1: when they were those guys on that side of the

941
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: world could do, especially when you think of Roger if

942
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: it got down and dirty and you need to root

943
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: a guy out for a third and one, he's big

944
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 1: as a house. Yep. You know. If you need a

945
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: guy that's athletic, you saw that. Well. I think Joseph

946
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: Noeboom is on his way, but you know it's those

947
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: are big shoes to fill. Absolutely. That's that's the one

948
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 1: thing I came away with thinking, Okay, wow, this is

949
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 1: going to be interesting. Well. And in the case of

950
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: Brian Allen, it's not a knock against him. He just

951
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: does not have the experience to see, like no certain

952
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,400
Speaker 1: situations and make sure that he has all the certain

953
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,280
Speaker 1: calls right right. That's something you have to be able

954
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:22,959
Speaker 1: to learn to grow into. And he's working really hard

955
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 1: at it. And we talked to Aaron Kromer at press

956
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,280
Speaker 1: conference the other day and he said that Brian Allen

957
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 1: is doing a great job of that. Jared Goff alluded

958
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: to the fact that they play Fortnite together on Xbox

959
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 1: interesting and they talk over the headsets. That's cool. Yeah,

960
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: they doing different stuff like that to get more and

961
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:42,399
Speaker 1: more comfortable with one another. Because you hope that voice

962
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,839
Speaker 1: you should respond to his Jared's Yeah, that's your job.

963
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: But you hope that that battery will come together and

964
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: gel together very well. Yeah, and you have it for

965
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: the next five years. I don't think you're going to

966
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,959
Speaker 1: get knocked flat from a center position with Brian Allen.

967
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 1: I think I don't either. He's got good body position,

968
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,480
Speaker 1: and he's strong and he's nasty, So I think that's

969
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 1: going to be just fine. And another guy from the

970
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 1: old line, Denby jimial Den. Yeah, they've they've lined him

971
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 1: up everywhere, everywhere, every all five. Yeah. He feels pretty

972
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: comfortable right now. So I mean, I think that's a

973
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 1: great guy coming off the bench in case you have

974
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: to slide guys over or make adjustments, you know, it

975
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: goes in again. Yes, I think he's coming along as well.

976
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: On the old line. The sixth man on the offensive

977
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 1: line is extremely important, and it has not been as important,

978
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: probably for this team as it is for most teams

979
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 1: over the course of the last two years. So as

980
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 1: we knock on wood that the health of the offensive

981
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,279
Speaker 1: line continues. If it doesn't, and you can't anticipate that

982
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 1: you're going to get all five for all seventeen weeks

983
00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 1: in the regular season for a third consecutive year, right, Denby,

984
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 1: I think will probably have to start a game this year. Probably.

985
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 1: I mean you never know. I mean you don't know,

986
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,160
Speaker 1: and you ababy doesn't obviously, but I think that he

987
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 1: will be prepared to do that. And you played a

988
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,359
Speaker 1: lot of football, and that front five played a lot

989
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 1: of football last season. Yeah, you never know. The other

990
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,240
Speaker 1: thing that jumped out of me, and this is funny.

991
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 1: I have to take you back to my wrestling roots

992
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 1: as a fan. Right, as a wrestling fan, used to

993
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 1: see these guys come out developmental talent, and then they

994
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 1: go away for a while and then the next time

995
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 1: you see them, they looked jacked, Like wow, where did

996
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 1: that come from? That's what I keep getting from Sebastian

997
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 1: Joseph Day. Oh my god, what have you been doing? Then? Yes,

998
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 1: I mean he has yoked. His body fat is down,

999
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,879
Speaker 1: He weighs less but looks bigger, you know what I mean? Yeah, Yeah,

1000
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,359
Speaker 1: he's really starting to fill out as a pro, like

1001
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 1: this is what he does for a living and it's

1002
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 1: starting to show. And I love his new coach. I

1003
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 1: think he's gonna get nothing. Everybody's going to get better

1004
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,479
Speaker 1: with coach Henderson, but especially guys like him that need

1005
00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 1: this type of coaching right now in his life. Look

1006
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 1: out for him. You got two of the things on

1007
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 1: my list. Sebastian Joseph Day and Eric Henderson are the

1008
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 1: terms of things that we learned in the offseason program.

1009
00:47:56,160 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 1: I really think that Sebastian Joseph Day could surprise people because, yeah,

1010
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,720
Speaker 1: just from the way he looks, the way he seems

1011
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:05,319
Speaker 1: to understand what it is that he's got to do

1012
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: when he's on the field. And he's another guy that

1013
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 1: I think is very motivated because when I talk to

1014
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,359
Speaker 1: him last week two weeks ago, just about the fact

1015
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: that he's in there, she's been getting snaps at knows

1016
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,239
Speaker 1: and I brought up how you and I talk about

1017
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 1: this all the time. He always looked like he wanted

1018
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:24,359
Speaker 1: to be in pad so bad on game day and

1019
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: he goes, man, you don't even know, right, that's the

1020
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,920
Speaker 1: kind of guy who did the work this offseason. Yeah, yeah,

1021
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 1: and now he's very motivated to earn that spot at

1022
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,560
Speaker 1: nose tackle. Now he needs to go find his inner

1023
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 1: Tyler Dirden and just go fight club. Oh yeah, you

1024
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: got everything. I mean, that's that's the final front two

1025
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:44,920
Speaker 1: bit a minute. It isn't the first rule about fight

1026
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 1: Club that we don't talk about. It's different now. I

1027
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: mean for him, I'm just saying, I mean, just go

1028
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,359
Speaker 1: find that. It's actually a movie that I've seen. Are

1029
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 1: you surprised the movie? Just find that inner dog in

1030
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,919
Speaker 1: you and be that guy because you've got everything else

1031
00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: to be successful. Yeah. Yeah, he's gonna surprise some people.

1032
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 1: Well hopefully we'll see. Yeah. Yeah. The other thing I

1033
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 1: think that we learned is that rookie running back Darryl Henderson,

1034
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: he's got that movement. I think that will translate to

1035
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 1: the NFL. If you average nearly nine yards to carry

1036
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: over two years, and I want two years at Memphis

1037
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,320
Speaker 1: at the college level, I don't care where you're playing.

1038
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: That's something. I think he can bring some of that

1039
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 1: dynamism to the Rams offense and give Todd Grilly a

1040
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 1: blow for a second, at Malcolm Brown blow whatever it

1041
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: happens to be. You know, maybe you're on the field

1042
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 1: at the same time because you're split out wide or

1043
00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 1: whatever it is. I think that there's he's somebody that

1044
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,399
Speaker 1: could really turn some heads. Oh go down every time

1045
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: he touches the ball. I just I think be beat

1046
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: you know, road running here we go. That's funny, you know,

1047
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 1: I mean really as a defense, I mean as it

1048
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 1: gets going. And I mean even at Memphis when you

1049
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 1: knew about this guy, you'd have to adjust defensively, and

1050
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 1: he's still found a way to get to the outside

1051
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 1: or get through you. Yes, he's got some aiusability. And

1052
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: now he's got like you said, he's he's the third

1053
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,200
Speaker 1: option in the offense, and he's gonna have some opportunities

1054
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: he didn't have at Memphis. Yes, you know what I mean,

1055
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,879
Speaker 1: to hit the corner. Yes, yeah, So I mean this,

1056
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 1: this is going to be interesting that he can really

1057
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,279
Speaker 1: really fly. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in

1058
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,719
Speaker 1: paths and in the preseason game. True. And that's the

1059
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: other thing. I mean, this is the difference between you know,

1060
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 1: like you said, nine years a carry at Memphis and

1061
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:28,160
Speaker 1: nine years a carry at the league. Everyone at this

1062
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,800
Speaker 1: level can run yep, and everyone hits yep. You know

1063
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:38,799
Speaker 1: what I mean. Is it Roquan Smith? He can catch you, Yeah,

1064
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: he can get he can get to the numbers before you.

1065
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,880
Speaker 1: He's great. Yeah. So I really like him about it. Right,

1066
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 1: So let's see what happens then, Bobby Wagner, you know,

1067
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 1: when you're trying to carry it up the gut in Seattle, Yep,

1068
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 1: the guy hits like a cement truck, you know. So,

1069
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,279
Speaker 1: I mean this is it's just another step for him.

1070
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,319
Speaker 1: But he's got the goods, he's got the speed, no,

1071
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. All right for our my at

1072
00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 1: least self indulgent moment of the week, Yeah, I do

1073
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 1: want to at least give another shout out to Korey

1074
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: and Brittany on their beautiful wedding. Okay, it went pretty well. Nice,

1075
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 1: it went really well. And like, yeah, our producer Taylor

1076
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 1: is nodding his head and putting his thumbs up because

1077
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:20,880
Speaker 1: Taylor Taylor shot the wedding. All right, So this is

1078
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: a big Rams family, a favorite. It went really well.

1079
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:28,359
Speaker 1: I thought that it was just a beautiful ceremony. Was

1080
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 1: at um in Malibu and one of those ranches up there,

1081
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 1: so yeah, it was beautiful, beautiful ceremony, beautiful wedding, and

1082
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,280
Speaker 1: like it was one of the great honors of my life. Honestly,

1083
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,319
Speaker 1: it was so much fun. Started calling you, Padre. I'm

1084
00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 1: down with that. I'm start calling you, Padre. I'm down.

1085
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,000
Speaker 1: So one of the probably one of the more interesting

1086
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 1: got moments of the ceremony. Right, So it's at the end,

1087
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,759
Speaker 1: and I said something to the effect of, you know,

1088
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 1: I'm no relationship expert, but you know I've done a

1089
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,080
Speaker 1: little reading on the internet. Maybe stay to the holiday

1090
00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 1: in last night. So I'll give if you permit me,

1091
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,480
Speaker 1: I will dispense some good advice. And so what I

1092
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:12,120
Speaker 1: said was make truth the unfailing bedrock of your lives together,

1093
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 1: and something like, you know, a healthy, strong marriage is

1094
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:21,240
Speaker 1: based on trust, respect and to quote Sean McVay, clear,

1095
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:26,320
Speaker 1: open and honest communication. You quoted, Yes, Wow. So Corey

1096
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:31,399
Speaker 1: tells coach this on Monday during media day and so

1097
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: then I but he say, he told me that he

1098
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,640
Speaker 1: told I can't remember what he's Miles said, because you know,

1099
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 1: he's in the middle of the wedding and he's looking

1100
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 1: at his bride, he's beautiful, and all these different things

1101
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 1: are going through your mind, so you're kind of not

1102
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 1: paying attention to what I'm saying, which is very, very

1103
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:50,720
Speaker 1: fair in my opinion. So after Tuesdays Mini camp practice,

1104
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,560
Speaker 1: I went up to him and I told him, like, hey,

1105
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:56,239
Speaker 1: I core told me what he told you, and so

1106
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:57,600
Speaker 1: I just want to let you know that it was

1107
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 1: a clear, open and honest communication thing and face like, oh,

1108
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:02,880
Speaker 1: I'm far from the first person to say that. I

1109
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 1: was like, yes, but it made it made them smile

1110
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:09,879
Speaker 1: during the ceremony. So that was cool, awesome, very cool. Man. Yes, yes,

1111
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 1: I know. So if you need wedding services, my DMS

1112
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:19,400
Speaker 1: are open. Okay, I don't know what to say. I

1113
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,320
Speaker 1: will charge though, Wow, all right, I'll be the chauffeur.

1114
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: I'll drive them. Sure right, we can make this a

1115
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 1: little business man. Oh yeah, no, it was. It was,

1116
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: like I said, it was one of the great honors

1117
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 1: of my life to be able to create a moment

1118
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:37,920
Speaker 1: and you know, a day like that for them, to

1119
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 1: two people that I cared very much about. It. It

1120
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 1: was very cool, a little bit um, but it was

1121
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:47,160
Speaker 1: not as nervous as you'd think. The thing that made

1122
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: me nervous was like the microphone situation. So I'm like

1123
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 1: reading the ceremony off of my iPad because there wasn't

1124
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 1: like anywhere to put papers or something, and I didn't

1125
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,400
Speaker 1: want to like flap through papers and have them flapping

1126
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 1: in the wind. So to me, the smartest safest option

1127
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 1: was to have the iPad, and of course, you know,

1128
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 1: I practiced it, so I wasn't off book, but I

1129
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: wanted to, you know, be able to read whatever it

1130
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:15,360
Speaker 1: was that I needed to read. So I was told

1131
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 1: before that I would either have like lav mics would

1132
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:20,000
Speaker 1: be attached to my suit, or it would be like

1133
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: one of those headset mics. And then I get up

1134
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 1: there and it's like a handheld wired mic and I

1135
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 1: was like, oh, well, this is this is a bit

1136
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,800
Speaker 1: of an audible here, because I was planning on holding

1137
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 1: the iPad with two hands and like using one. So

1138
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,640
Speaker 1: my case fortunately let me put my index finger between

1139
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: it like the case and the thing, and I used

1140
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: my thumb to like scroll, and I had the back

1141
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 1: three fingers in my hand like on the back of it.

1142
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,000
Speaker 1: It was a little bit more complex, and then I

1143
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,560
Speaker 1: had to like hold the mic and I had to

1144
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 1: hold the mic to their faces as they're like delivering

1145
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,440
Speaker 1: the vows. Yeah. The other thing that made me nervous

1146
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,719
Speaker 1: was also like I had to like make sure I

1147
00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 1: had Britney's vows like in my breast pocket or whatever,

1148
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 1: and going on, I kind of did, but you know,

1149
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 1: I'm a good multitasker. Yeah, yeah, I was in control.

1150
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,799
Speaker 1: You're ready for live TV? Thank you? Yes, I mean

1151
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: we kind of do live stuff. Every pregame right, get

1152
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,000
Speaker 1: ready to start? Okay, everything you were about to say

1153
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:19,160
Speaker 1: is dead now moved to something else. Yeah that's how

1154
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,360
Speaker 1: it goes in live TV. Oh yeah, everything you were

1155
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: about to say forget it moved to this ready go.

1156
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 1: But it was, like I said, it was so it

1157
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:30,160
Speaker 1: was so much fun. And then you know, the reception

1158
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 1: was great and everything like that was it was I'm

1159
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:36,200
Speaker 1: proud of you. It was cool to do that. It

1160
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:39,799
Speaker 1: was very cool. I'm proud. That's awesome. Yes, only my

1161
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: uncles who are preachers are people that I know that

1162
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: actually officiate weddings. Yeah. So yeah, my favorite parts non

1163
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 1: preacher ever met actually officiated. I will say that my

1164
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,799
Speaker 1: favorite part was saying, by the power vested in me

1165
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,479
Speaker 1: by the State of calif is scary, right. It gave

1166
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:56,840
Speaker 1: miles power I know. Oh god? Oh actually, okay here,

1167
00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:00,239
Speaker 1: My real favorite part was after we went back to

1168
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,840
Speaker 1: the Little Sweeter or wherever you know they staged the

1169
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:08,239
Speaker 1: bridle party, and Corey brought out this bottle of vintage

1170
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: Amabel's Vintage I don't know, but it was. It was

1171
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:14,920
Speaker 1: Sundtroy Hakushoe. You ever had this? God blush? It's Japanese whiskey.

1172
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:18,480
Speaker 1: It is twelve years aged and it was one of

1173
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,680
Speaker 1: the best things to ever hit my lips. Oh I'm

1174
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:25,400
Speaker 1: a big whiskey guy. Really, yes, okay, So one of

1175
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 1: my gift for officiating was I didn't know you. I know.

1176
00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:31,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's incredible. That was That was I learned

1177
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:33,920
Speaker 1: a lot about you today. That's amazing. Great, that is

1178
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:37,359
Speaker 1: really cool. Any parting shots, Well, how do you know? No,

1179
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 1: that's well, wait, one thing, one thing right? Okay. I

1180
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 1: had someone I just came from the movies, right, and

1181
00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 1: I walk out, what what did you see it? And

1182
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm in a snarky mood, but I just saw Godzilla,

1183
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 1: King of the Monsters, right, And this one guy who

1184
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 1: wants to make small talk goes, hey, how was the movie?

1185
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 1: How did it end? And I just said, what's in

1186
00:56:56,600 --> 00:57:01,000
Speaker 1: the title? How do you think it ends? Right? And

1187
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:04,880
Speaker 1: then the other thing right, um, same guy uh starts

1188
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:07,560
Speaker 1: telling me how much he knows football, right, and I'm cool.

1189
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:09,760
Speaker 1: So I just gave him a test. What's the difference

1190
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 1: between all sizes and encroachment. Okay, I couldn't tell me, oh,

1191
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: dere okay, So is that snarky. I mean it's a

1192
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 1: little snobbish, but I think it like only because he's

1193
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,080
Speaker 1: claiming up and down like he could be a GM

1194
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 1: head coach at that point, same day type guy. At

1195
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:31,439
Speaker 1: that point, somebody needs to be told thank you. Yes,

1196
00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 1: that's that's where I was. Yes, okay, thank you, like you.

1197
00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes people need to be told that they're wrong, right, Okay,

1198
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,840
Speaker 1: thank you. No, I'm totally okay with that. The preacher says,

1199
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,080
Speaker 1: all right, well, by the power invested in me by

1200
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:46,760
Speaker 1: the state of California. That was between the horns. Hey,

1201
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,720
Speaker 1: I hope everybody enjoyed it. We will see you next time.
