We are live 4 00:00:28,228 --> 00:00:30,708 Speaker 2: in New York City. It is Tuesday, June twenty seventh. 5 00:00:30,788 --> 00:00:33,948 Speaker 2: I am Sarah Walsh alongside Tom Pellisero in a great jacket, 6 00:00:33,988 --> 00:00:38,788 Speaker 2: Mike Garafalo and Super Bowl champion Sean o'harrit do. 7 00:00:38,708 --> 00:00:39,188 Speaker 3: You have to do? 8 00:00:39,188 --> 00:00:41,068 Speaker 4: You have to water that jacket? 9 00:00:41,188 --> 00:00:43,748 Speaker 5: I think you made that joke earlier. Actually, yeah, okay, 10 00:00:43,948 --> 00:00:45,388 Speaker 5: Well it's a new album. 11 00:00:45,828 --> 00:00:50,708 Speaker 2: It is time out for the lead and it is 12 00:00:50,988 --> 00:00:52,988 Speaker 2: grim looking for the Bears. You're coming off a league 13 00:00:52,988 --> 00:00:55,628 Speaker 2: worst three and fourteen record, one of those losses coming 14 00:00:55,628 --> 00:00:59,308 Speaker 2: against former Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, who happens to be 15 00:00:59,348 --> 00:01:03,708 Speaker 2: one of the newest Chicago Bears. Last week, Edmunds provided 16 00:01:03,748 --> 00:01:08,028 Speaker 2: praise for Justin Fields and hope for his new team. 17 00:01:08,548 --> 00:01:11,828 Speaker 6: Obviously, his talent, his speed, his athleticism speaks for itself. 18 00:01:12,068 --> 00:01:13,748 Speaker 6: I had a chance to play against him last year, 19 00:01:14,468 --> 00:01:17,228 Speaker 6: you know, definitely presented some of those challenges. You know, 20 00:01:17,268 --> 00:01:19,268 Speaker 6: now I'm able to see it every single day, just 21 00:01:19,308 --> 00:01:21,708 Speaker 6: to see how hard he works, just to see his commitment. 22 00:01:21,788 --> 00:01:23,868 Speaker 6: You know, he's one of those early guys, one of 23 00:01:23,908 --> 00:01:26,028 Speaker 6: those late leaving guys. You know, that's what you want 24 00:01:26,068 --> 00:01:27,068 Speaker 6: to see from your quarterback. 25 00:01:27,108 --> 00:01:27,228 Speaker 2: Man. 26 00:01:27,268 --> 00:01:28,108 Speaker 3: You know he's a leader. 27 00:01:28,308 --> 00:01:30,188 Speaker 6: You can see that he makes guys around him better. 28 00:01:30,308 --> 00:01:32,468 Speaker 6: I'm excited to see him take this next step and 29 00:01:32,668 --> 00:01:34,148 Speaker 6: he's going to be a big part of our success. 30 00:01:34,148 --> 00:01:34,668 Speaker 3: This shit. 31 00:01:38,028 --> 00:01:40,628 Speaker 2: Edmunds a great addition to that Chicago defense and seemingly 32 00:01:40,708 --> 00:01:43,668 Speaker 2: very impressed with his new quarterback. What would you say 33 00:01:43,908 --> 00:01:47,708 Speaker 2: is the best case scenario for the twenty twenty three Bears, Mike. 34 00:01:48,188 --> 00:01:52,348 Speaker 7: I would say justin fields because now, listen, we all 35 00:01:52,348 --> 00:01:54,268 Speaker 7: know what he can do. I mean, talking to people 36 00:01:54,308 --> 00:01:57,068 Speaker 7: who played against him or coached against him last year, 37 00:01:57,508 --> 00:01:59,948 Speaker 7: it was you have no idea what this guy is 38 00:01:59,948 --> 00:02:02,068 Speaker 7: doing on the field from an athletic standpoint. These are 39 00:02:02,068 --> 00:02:06,388 Speaker 7: people that saw Michael Vick play, Donovan McNabb play, even 40 00:02:06,428 --> 00:02:08,468 Speaker 7: Patrick Mahomes and what he's able to do. It was 41 00:02:08,508 --> 00:02:11,508 Speaker 7: like the threat of his legs, which did open some 42 00:02:11,548 --> 00:02:13,668 Speaker 7: things in the passing game, and that's what Luke gets 43 00:02:13,668 --> 00:02:16,428 Speaker 7: he was trying to tap into as well. That's all great, 44 00:02:16,468 --> 00:02:19,268 Speaker 7: But that ball against the Commanders there, that was a 45 00:02:19,268 --> 00:02:20,828 Speaker 7: great ball. Then there were some other throws that were 46 00:02:20,868 --> 00:02:24,148 Speaker 7: great throws. He had twenty two hundred forty two passing 47 00:02:24,188 --> 00:02:26,388 Speaker 7: yards eleven hundred and forty three rushing yards. I want 48 00:02:26,468 --> 00:02:29,988 Speaker 7: him over three thousand passing and I want him under 49 00:02:30,428 --> 00:02:31,348 Speaker 7: a thousand rushing. 50 00:02:31,388 --> 00:02:32,828 Speaker 8: Now, it still could be in the area of. 51 00:02:33,108 --> 00:02:35,108 Speaker 7: Nine hundred or so because that threat is still there 52 00:02:35,108 --> 00:02:37,548 Speaker 7: and that's something that you want to be able to utilize. 53 00:02:37,548 --> 00:02:39,908 Speaker 7: But you know, that next step that Edmonds was talking 54 00:02:39,908 --> 00:02:42,948 Speaker 7: about with Justin Fields is proving that he can beat. 55 00:02:42,748 --> 00:02:43,828 Speaker 8: You with his arm as well. 56 00:02:43,908 --> 00:02:46,308 Speaker 7: So that, to me, is the best case scenario for 57 00:02:46,348 --> 00:02:49,068 Speaker 7: the Bears moving forward, is that that guy becomes more. 58 00:02:48,908 --> 00:02:51,708 Speaker 8: Of a dual threat at the quarterback position. 59 00:02:51,708 --> 00:02:52,268 Speaker 5: I think he can do. 60 00:02:52,708 --> 00:02:54,388 Speaker 4: I love that we're talking to the Chicago Bears right 61 00:02:54,428 --> 00:02:57,188 Speaker 4: now and it's best case scenario. Like, look, every team 62 00:02:57,268 --> 00:02:59,148 Speaker 4: best case scenario is you find a way to win 63 00:02:59,188 --> 00:03:01,108 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. But let's be realistic about this, Like 64 00:03:01,148 --> 00:03:03,068 Speaker 4: the Bears are not winning the Super Bowl this year. 65 00:03:03,388 --> 00:03:04,348 Speaker 4: I think they're building to. 66 00:03:04,588 --> 00:03:04,868 Speaker 3: All of that. 67 00:03:04,908 --> 00:03:07,668 Speaker 4: And we saw the impact that Ryan Poles has had 68 00:03:07,708 --> 00:03:09,268 Speaker 4: on just his first year. Last year, it was like 69 00:03:09,268 --> 00:03:11,988 Speaker 4: a yard sale on players. He was trading away players. 70 00:03:12,268 --> 00:03:14,668 Speaker 4: They were clearing the deck. They try to build this 71 00:03:14,748 --> 00:03:17,308 Speaker 4: thing for sustainability, and I think when you look at 72 00:03:17,348 --> 00:03:20,348 Speaker 4: the Bears, the best case scenario for them is that 73 00:03:20,388 --> 00:03:22,468 Speaker 4: they somehow find a way to make the playoffs as 74 00:03:22,468 --> 00:03:24,588 Speaker 4: a wildcard. I don't think they're ready to win the 75 00:03:24,668 --> 00:03:27,148 Speaker 4: division yet. And I think when you look at their offense, 76 00:03:27,668 --> 00:03:30,868 Speaker 4: the steady climb that offensively that you're hoping to see 77 00:03:31,228 --> 00:03:33,988 Speaker 4: is really yes, it starts with Justin Fields, but from 78 00:03:33,988 --> 00:03:36,428 Speaker 4: an offensive standpoint, best case scenario for Justin Fields that 79 00:03:36,468 --> 00:03:38,628 Speaker 4: he plays all seventeen games, that he makes it through 80 00:03:38,668 --> 00:03:41,308 Speaker 4: the season healthy, because when you look at how much 81 00:03:42,268 --> 00:03:44,988 Speaker 4: how much impact he had in the passing game and 82 00:03:45,068 --> 00:03:47,868 Speaker 4: the running game, running the football, all those tackles, all 83 00:03:47,868 --> 00:03:50,788 Speaker 4: those things, they become cumulative. So best case scenario is 84 00:03:51,108 --> 00:03:54,028 Speaker 4: the defense. There's tons of room for improvement, no doubt 85 00:03:54,028 --> 00:03:56,548 Speaker 4: about it. But I think we're Justin Fields. If he 86 00:03:56,588 --> 00:03:58,548 Speaker 4: stays healthy and they make the playoffs, I think that's 87 00:03:58,548 --> 00:04:00,108 Speaker 4: a huge win for them this season. 88 00:04:00,708 --> 00:04:03,748 Speaker 9: I would say the best case scenario, just again to 89 00:04:03,788 --> 00:04:06,348 Speaker 9: go with the real aspect of this, is you're playing 90 00:04:06,388 --> 00:04:09,068 Speaker 9: meaningful games in December, which the Bears were a year ago, 91 00:04:09,108 --> 00:04:10,868 Speaker 9: and they ended up with the number one overall pick. 92 00:04:10,988 --> 00:04:13,228 Speaker 9: They obviously traded that to move back to number nine 93 00:04:13,628 --> 00:04:15,508 Speaker 9: with the Carolina Panthers and went up and got Bryce 94 00:04:15,588 --> 00:04:17,668 Speaker 9: Young here. But they do think that Justin Fields to 95 00:04:17,708 --> 00:04:20,828 Speaker 9: the point that Mike made has the opportunity to develop 96 00:04:20,908 --> 00:04:24,028 Speaker 9: into more than just a talented playmaker. That's howthing Luke 97 00:04:24,028 --> 00:04:26,668 Speaker 9: Getzi believes in. They had Andrew Dunoko there, who's their 98 00:04:26,748 --> 00:04:29,588 Speaker 9: quarterbacks coach. They wanted get to to mold Justin Fields here. 99 00:04:29,668 --> 00:04:32,148 Speaker 9: Look what they did around him. They've given him some weapons. 100 00:04:32,188 --> 00:04:34,148 Speaker 9: They made a big trade for Chase Claypool last year 101 00:04:34,148 --> 00:04:34,788 Speaker 9: at the deadline. 102 00:04:34,988 --> 00:04:36,148 Speaker 5: We'll see how that works out. 103 00:04:36,428 --> 00:04:39,068 Speaker 9: Dj Moore was a guy they insisted upon getting in 104 00:04:39,148 --> 00:04:41,308 Speaker 9: that trade involving the number one pick. Somebody who was 105 00:04:41,348 --> 00:04:44,148 Speaker 9: a heavy target share guy when he was in Carolina 106 00:04:44,148 --> 00:04:44,868 Speaker 9: has shown that. 107 00:04:44,748 --> 00:04:45,828 Speaker 5: He could be a productive receiver. 108 00:04:45,988 --> 00:04:47,748 Speaker 9: And then they brought in guys like Tremaine Edmonds on 109 00:04:47,748 --> 00:04:50,468 Speaker 9: an eighteen million dollars per year contract. They invested in 110 00:04:50,548 --> 00:04:53,228 Speaker 9: the defense in those positions right up the middle of 111 00:04:53,268 --> 00:04:55,708 Speaker 9: the defense that Matdiberflus really needs. 112 00:04:55,668 --> 00:04:56,548 Speaker 5: To make that thing go. 113 00:04:57,268 --> 00:04:58,948 Speaker 9: They've got a if you look at the start of 114 00:04:58,988 --> 00:05:01,268 Speaker 9: their schedule here. They should be able to make some 115 00:05:01,308 --> 00:05:03,708 Speaker 9: headway in September and October if they can get off 116 00:05:03,708 --> 00:05:05,708 Speaker 9: to a fast start here. They do have the Chiefs 117 00:05:05,708 --> 00:05:07,868 Speaker 9: in Week three, but they face the Packers early in 118 00:05:07,908 --> 00:05:10,428 Speaker 9: the season. They faced Washington early in the season, They 119 00:05:10,468 --> 00:05:12,948 Speaker 9: face the Bucks early in the season, and the Broncos. 120 00:05:13,148 --> 00:05:14,788 Speaker 5: They got an opportunity against the Vikings too. 121 00:05:14,908 --> 00:05:17,148 Speaker 9: The division, in my mind of the NFC North, is 122 00:05:17,188 --> 00:05:19,668 Speaker 9: more open than maybe we've been talking about flight as 123 00:05:19,708 --> 00:05:20,948 Speaker 9: were thirteen and four a year ago. 124 00:05:21,228 --> 00:05:22,548 Speaker 5: They've had a lot of change there. 125 00:05:22,628 --> 00:05:24,748 Speaker 9: The Lions finished strong, they haven't done it for a 126 00:05:24,748 --> 00:05:27,108 Speaker 9: full season, and the Packers have a new quarterback here. 127 00:05:27,228 --> 00:05:30,548 Speaker 9: If the Bears can stay relevant into the second half 128 00:05:30,548 --> 00:05:31,988 Speaker 9: of the season, I think that's a win for them. 129 00:05:32,028 --> 00:05:34,148 Speaker 2: I think maybe the best case scenario has already happened 130 00:05:34,188 --> 00:05:36,468 Speaker 2: for them, and that's Aaron Rodgers is no longer in 131 00:05:36,508 --> 00:05:39,348 Speaker 2: the division. That helps That helps them, certainly. We don't 132 00:05:39,388 --> 00:05:42,828 Speaker 2: know what's going to happen with Jordan Love Minnesota. They 133 00:05:42,868 --> 00:05:45,588 Speaker 2: were very good last year. Detroit hot at the end 134 00:05:45,628 --> 00:05:47,668 Speaker 2: of the year. But we were talking about it earlier 135 00:05:47,708 --> 00:05:49,468 Speaker 2: and it never shakes out the way you think. Okay, 136 00:05:49,508 --> 00:05:51,228 Speaker 2: where you slot like, this team's going to do this. 137 00:05:51,228 --> 00:05:53,428 Speaker 2: This team's going to do this. I think best case scenario, 138 00:05:53,508 --> 00:05:55,308 Speaker 2: I think it would be getting into the postseason. And 139 00:05:55,348 --> 00:05:56,748 Speaker 2: I think that they can do it with the pieces 140 00:05:56,788 --> 00:05:59,148 Speaker 2: that they put around Justin Field and if he stays healthy. 141 00:05:59,428 --> 00:06:01,268 Speaker 2: I also think that DJ Moore, we know he's good. 142 00:06:01,308 --> 00:06:03,308 Speaker 2: I think he's underrated in this league. I think he's 143 00:06:03,428 --> 00:06:06,668 Speaker 2: really really good. Carolina has fallen off the mark in 144 00:06:06,708 --> 00:06:09,348 Speaker 2: recent years, and they made a push last year and 145 00:06:09,468 --> 00:06:12,028 Speaker 2: DJ Moore and all the positives that have come out 146 00:06:12,068 --> 00:06:14,828 Speaker 2: of Carolina, DJ Moore was involved in so much of that, 147 00:06:14,868 --> 00:06:17,308 Speaker 2: and he had so many quarterbacks rotating in and out 148 00:06:17,388 --> 00:06:20,828 Speaker 2: last year. I think DJ Moore is a very underrated 149 00:06:20,868 --> 00:06:24,228 Speaker 2: receiver in the National Football League, and I think giving 150 00:06:24,348 --> 00:06:26,748 Speaker 2: him to Justin Fields is another weapon is going to 151 00:06:26,788 --> 00:06:29,548 Speaker 2: be huge for Fields. I think we see him use 152 00:06:29,588 --> 00:06:32,828 Speaker 2: his legs and as I think because of what DJ 153 00:06:32,908 --> 00:06:34,348 Speaker 2: Moore can do, I think we're going to see his 154 00:06:34,388 --> 00:06:36,108 Speaker 2: passing numbers go up in a way that we haven't 155 00:06:36,148 --> 00:06:38,468 Speaker 2: seen yet in this league. So I do think I 156 00:06:38,508 --> 00:06:40,548 Speaker 2: don't know about winning the division, but I think that 157 00:06:40,588 --> 00:06:42,868 Speaker 2: this is a Bears team that could get into the postseason. 158 00:06:43,108 --> 00:06:43,948 Speaker 2: This upcoming year. 159 00:06:44,868 --> 00:06:46,668 Speaker 8: That'd be fun looking for this team. 160 00:06:46,708 --> 00:06:48,628 Speaker 7: It's one of the legendary franchise to get back in 161 00:06:48,668 --> 00:06:52,668 Speaker 7: the mix. Our buddy Adam Rank, the resident Chicago Bears fan, 162 00:06:52,708 --> 00:06:55,508 Speaker 7: would love that and always he's uber confident. That's what 163 00:06:55,548 --> 00:06:57,388 Speaker 7: I love about Rank. He's an optimist when it comes 164 00:06:57,388 --> 00:07:00,788 Speaker 7: to the Chicago Bears. I also want to see Matt Eberfluis, 165 00:07:00,828 --> 00:07:02,988 Speaker 7: the head coach of the Chicago Bears, take the next 166 00:07:03,028 --> 00:07:04,588 Speaker 7: step of the head coach as well, because I think 167 00:07:04,668 --> 00:07:05,828 Speaker 7: this again, we don't talk. 168 00:07:05,668 --> 00:07:08,388 Speaker 8: A lot about Matt Eberflus. I think he's got the 169 00:07:08,468 --> 00:07:09,108 Speaker 8: chops to be a. 170 00:07:09,028 --> 00:07:11,868 Speaker 7: Really good head coach in this league and take that 171 00:07:11,908 --> 00:07:14,668 Speaker 7: next progression. He has to progress. The quarterback has to progress. 172 00:07:15,108 --> 00:07:16,948 Speaker 7: The talent level on the team. We've seen it this 173 00:07:16,988 --> 00:07:19,148 Speaker 7: offseason progress a little bit. So eber Fluis is a 174 00:07:19,148 --> 00:07:20,788 Speaker 7: guy that we could be talking about saying he's doing 175 00:07:20,828 --> 00:07:24,468 Speaker 7: a great job in Chicago if he again takes that 176 00:07:24,468 --> 00:07:25,068 Speaker 7: next step. 177 00:07:24,868 --> 00:07:25,388 Speaker 8: As the head coach. 178 00:07:25,548 --> 00:07:27,388 Speaker 9: I can't get over their schedule. I'm looking through it. 179 00:07:27,828 --> 00:07:30,668 Speaker 9: I mean it's listen, we're sitting here in June. We're 180 00:07:30,668 --> 00:07:32,588 Speaker 9: basing everything off what happened last year when we think 181 00:07:32,668 --> 00:07:35,348 Speaker 9: teams are going to be, but there's a lot of 182 00:07:35,388 --> 00:07:37,468 Speaker 9: winnable games. If you look at their schedule, they're not 183 00:07:37,508 --> 00:07:39,188 Speaker 9: facing a murderers row. I mean compared to like the 184 00:07:39,228 --> 00:07:41,428 Speaker 9: early portion of the Jets schedule, the first six games, 185 00:07:42,028 --> 00:07:44,588 Speaker 9: the first five they open at home against the Packers 186 00:07:44,588 --> 00:07:47,788 Speaker 9: without Aaron Rodgers. They go to Tampa at Chiefs. 187 00:07:48,188 --> 00:07:48,748 Speaker 5: That's rough. 188 00:07:49,188 --> 00:07:52,188 Speaker 9: Home against the Broncos at Washington, here's the whole thing. 189 00:07:52,668 --> 00:07:54,788 Speaker 9: They host the Viking, so they get a home another 190 00:07:54,868 --> 00:07:58,268 Speaker 9: home division game there, they host the Raiders. Then you 191 00:07:58,348 --> 00:07:59,988 Speaker 9: got to go to LA and face the Chargers to 192 00:08:00,108 --> 00:08:02,068 Speaker 9: New Orleans. Those are tough games on the road, you 193 00:08:02,108 --> 00:08:04,828 Speaker 9: know with the pant look at it. Just look at 194 00:08:04,828 --> 00:08:07,308 Speaker 9: that schedule and go now gritted you finished in last place. 195 00:08:07,668 --> 00:08:09,788 Speaker 9: You get a couple of easier games on your schedule here. 196 00:08:09,828 --> 00:08:12,428 Speaker 9: But it seems like just based upon the divisions that 197 00:08:12,428 --> 00:08:15,508 Speaker 9: they're playing next year, they you know, they're. 198 00:08:15,308 --> 00:08:17,748 Speaker 5: Facing the AFC West obviously as you look at it here. 199 00:08:18,348 --> 00:08:21,268 Speaker 4: If I'm the Bears, though, I want that flipped, like 200 00:08:21,588 --> 00:08:24,388 Speaker 4: give me, give me December in September, because they got 201 00:08:24,468 --> 00:08:27,428 Speaker 4: lines Brown's Carl. Like I feel like the back half 202 00:08:27,468 --> 00:08:29,908 Speaker 4: of their schedule you're talking about meaningful games in December. 203 00:08:30,148 --> 00:08:32,748 Speaker 4: In order for those games to mean something, you've got 204 00:08:32,788 --> 00:08:36,028 Speaker 4: to have a decent record going into that. So I 205 00:08:36,028 --> 00:08:39,468 Speaker 4: think that's a tough start for them. But yeah, if 206 00:08:39,508 --> 00:08:42,028 Speaker 4: those games are impactful in December, right there, that's a win. 207 00:08:42,348 --> 00:08:43,948 Speaker 8: Go into Kansas City, win the game. 208 00:08:44,708 --> 00:08:47,188 Speaker 7: They went into Foxboro on the game that everybody thought 209 00:08:47,228 --> 00:08:49,628 Speaker 7: that Belichick was gonna tie Hallas that night, which the 210 00:08:49,628 --> 00:08:50,508 Speaker 7: Bears certainly wanted to. 211 00:08:50,508 --> 00:08:51,028 Speaker 8: Win that game. 212 00:08:51,068 --> 00:08:52,948 Speaker 7: And they went and they won that game on a Monday. 213 00:08:53,068 --> 00:08:55,628 Speaker 7: It was a stunning victory, and they did it in 214 00:08:55,708 --> 00:08:57,868 Speaker 7: stunning fashion. I want to see a little bit more 215 00:08:57,868 --> 00:08:59,708 Speaker 7: of that from the Chicago Bears. By the way, that 216 00:08:59,708 --> 00:09:01,668 Speaker 7: wounds up being the last games they won. If I 217 00:09:01,708 --> 00:09:03,268 Speaker 7: told you that night, that's the last game that the 218 00:09:03,308 --> 00:09:04,628 Speaker 7: Bears are gonna win for the rest of the season, 219 00:09:04,628 --> 00:09:05,348 Speaker 7: you wonder stuff. 220 00:09:05,388 --> 00:09:07,588 Speaker 2: Can you imagine also week one, if they open up 221 00:09:07,628 --> 00:09:09,228 Speaker 2: and beat the Packers. I was talking about the best 222 00:09:09,268 --> 00:09:11,188 Speaker 2: case scenario for them already happened that Aaron Rodgers left. 223 00:09:11,228 --> 00:09:12,948 Speaker 2: Can you imagine Week one they come out and beat 224 00:09:12,948 --> 00:09:15,748 Speaker 2: the Packers. Just that fan base, when you talk about optimism, 225 00:09:16,348 --> 00:09:16,948 Speaker 2: it's gonna be in. 226 00:09:17,148 --> 00:09:17,548 Speaker 5: Le's what I mean. 227 00:09:17,588 --> 00:09:19,948 Speaker 9: Have those home division games you open up against the Packers. 228 00:09:20,028 --> 00:09:23,308 Speaker 9: Jordan Love's first start as the guy is on the 229 00:09:23,388 --> 00:09:27,708 Speaker 9: road in Chicago, where his predecessor dominated for many years. 230 00:09:28,108 --> 00:09:30,508 Speaker 9: The pressure is completely on the Packers. In that type 231 00:09:30,508 --> 00:09:32,868 Speaker 9: of a scenario, the Bear's gonna win. Maybe you gather 232 00:09:32,948 --> 00:09:35,308 Speaker 9: a little bit of confidence there just to Field's plays. Well, 233 00:09:35,308 --> 00:09:36,788 Speaker 9: that's something we're gonna be talking about. I'm sure that 234 00:09:36,788 --> 00:09:37,588 Speaker 9: Monday morning after. 235 00:09:40,748 --> 00:09:43,828 Speaker 7: This man needs no introduction, but it's in the telepropers, 236 00:09:43,868 --> 00:09:46,948 Speaker 7: so I'm gonna give it to him anyway. He won 237 00:09:47,068 --> 00:09:50,108 Speaker 7: three Super Bowls as the VP of Player Personnel for 238 00:09:50,108 --> 00:09:52,548 Speaker 7: the New England Patriots. He has served as an assistant 239 00:09:52,588 --> 00:09:55,908 Speaker 7: general manager, a general manager, and now he is our 240 00:09:56,028 --> 00:09:59,548 Speaker 7: NFL Front office analyst. And according to the NFL research 241 00:09:59,588 --> 00:10:02,308 Speaker 7: we were talking about conditioning test earlier in the show, he's. 242 00:10:02,108 --> 00:10:04,028 Speaker 8: Never failed an NFL training camp. 243 00:10:04,068 --> 00:10:08,108 Speaker 7: Candition cast, Please welcome back, Scott Peely, Ask what's up? 244 00:10:09,588 --> 00:10:10,228 Speaker 8: Good morning? 245 00:10:10,308 --> 00:10:12,068 Speaker 10: Trust me, my high school coach will tell you that 246 00:10:12,068 --> 00:10:14,068 Speaker 10: I might have failed one to two of those. 247 00:10:15,108 --> 00:10:17,828 Speaker 7: Eighty great on the curve, Scott, all right. The futures 248 00:10:17,868 --> 00:10:21,748 Speaker 7: of Dalvin Cook and DeAndre Hopkins have dominated the news cycle. However, 249 00:10:21,788 --> 00:10:23,588 Speaker 7: it's late June and there doesn't seem to be a 250 00:10:23,588 --> 00:10:25,428 Speaker 7: lot of urgency for teams to sign them. Is that 251 00:10:25,468 --> 00:10:27,068 Speaker 7: the case tell us what is going on in the 252 00:10:27,068 --> 00:10:28,388 Speaker 7: front offices of teams who. 253 00:10:28,228 --> 00:10:30,628 Speaker 5: Could be interested in either of these two players. 254 00:10:32,508 --> 00:10:32,788 Speaker 8: Geez. 255 00:10:32,908 --> 00:10:35,308 Speaker 10: I think every team looks at it a little bit differently, right, 256 00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:37,508 Speaker 10: But one of the first things you have to look at, 257 00:10:37,628 --> 00:10:41,748 Speaker 10: what are the teams that still have budgets in terms 258 00:10:41,788 --> 00:10:44,668 Speaker 10: of cap and cash. At this point in time of 259 00:10:44,708 --> 00:10:46,668 Speaker 10: the year, there's a lot of teams that have blown 260 00:10:46,748 --> 00:10:49,668 Speaker 10: through their cash commitment for the year. And as crazy 261 00:10:49,708 --> 00:10:52,468 Speaker 10: as it sounds, when you look at players like Cook, 262 00:10:53,188 --> 00:10:54,868 Speaker 10: you know it's going to cost a lot of money. 263 00:10:54,908 --> 00:10:56,788 Speaker 10: It's going to cost a lot of cash. D Hop 264 00:10:56,828 --> 00:10:58,908 Speaker 10: is going to cost a lot of cash. So some 265 00:10:59,028 --> 00:11:00,988 Speaker 10: teams will stick to their cash budget. 266 00:11:01,268 --> 00:11:02,108 Speaker 8: Some teams are in a. 267 00:11:02,028 --> 00:11:05,748 Speaker 10: Situation where they can still manipulate the cash. Other teams 268 00:11:06,068 --> 00:11:08,828 Speaker 10: can't manipulate their cap. So it comes down to the 269 00:11:08,828 --> 00:11:11,748 Speaker 10: situation where the cap is and the cash is. 270 00:11:11,788 --> 00:11:13,108 Speaker 8: But there's also this other thing. 271 00:11:13,188 --> 00:11:15,788 Speaker 10: Anytime that you do a deal, it takes both sides, 272 00:11:16,028 --> 00:11:18,588 Speaker 10: and right now, veteran players that are in situations like this, 273 00:11:18,668 --> 00:11:20,428 Speaker 10: Sometimes what they want to do is they want to 274 00:11:20,468 --> 00:11:22,908 Speaker 10: sit tight. They want to put themselves in the best 275 00:11:22,948 --> 00:11:25,868 Speaker 10: situation donally in terms of winning. But who are the 276 00:11:25,868 --> 00:11:28,508 Speaker 10: other players that I'm going to be with? Sometimes it 277 00:11:28,548 --> 00:11:31,388 Speaker 10: would be whove a player to sit back, wait, watch, 278 00:11:31,788 --> 00:11:35,228 Speaker 10: see whether are injuries, and get the best deal of 279 00:11:35,268 --> 00:11:38,588 Speaker 10: the best situation, the best circumstance. Veteran players don't like 280 00:11:38,628 --> 00:11:41,108 Speaker 10: training camp, so they may just be sitting tight to 281 00:11:41,188 --> 00:11:43,468 Speaker 10: get that deal done, and a team can only do 282 00:11:43,468 --> 00:11:46,068 Speaker 10: a deal if a player wants to get a deal done. 283 00:11:47,708 --> 00:11:51,068 Speaker 2: Scott, we were just talking about the high expectations surrounding 284 00:11:51,068 --> 00:11:53,828 Speaker 2: the Cowboys. That kind of pressure comes when your nickname 285 00:11:53,908 --> 00:11:56,228 Speaker 2: is America's team, obviously, but you were part of that 286 00:11:56,268 --> 00:11:59,148 Speaker 2: Patriots dynasty, so you know what it's like to be 287 00:11:59,268 --> 00:12:03,228 Speaker 2: under pressure season after season. What challenges does a front 288 00:12:03,228 --> 00:12:06,548 Speaker 2: office run into when expectations for their team are so 289 00:12:06,828 --> 00:12:08,268 Speaker 2: high every single year? 290 00:12:10,028 --> 00:12:12,548 Speaker 10: Yeah, Sarah, you know, it's a really delicate balance because 291 00:12:12,588 --> 00:12:15,828 Speaker 10: you want to have very high standards internally, and you 292 00:12:15,868 --> 00:12:20,268 Speaker 10: want to have high expectations internally. However, when you're projecting 293 00:12:20,308 --> 00:12:22,148 Speaker 10: things to the outside, you want to make sure that 294 00:12:22,228 --> 00:12:24,948 Speaker 10: you manage expectations. You know, my dad used to have 295 00:12:24,988 --> 00:12:27,428 Speaker 10: this saying when I was a kid. You know, don't 296 00:12:27,548 --> 00:12:29,988 Speaker 10: ever let your mouth write a check that your butt 297 00:12:30,028 --> 00:12:34,388 Speaker 10: can't cash. So what that means is manage expectations externally. 298 00:12:34,468 --> 00:12:36,828 Speaker 10: Don't go out and talk about how great you are, 299 00:12:37,028 --> 00:12:39,388 Speaker 10: how great you're going to be again. You have to 300 00:12:39,428 --> 00:12:42,028 Speaker 10: do things with confidence internally. You have to do things 301 00:12:42,068 --> 00:12:46,308 Speaker 10: positively internally, but you have to manage the expectations. Because 302 00:12:46,348 --> 00:12:48,628 Speaker 10: here's what's happening. And I've been a part of both 303 00:12:48,628 --> 00:12:53,148 Speaker 10: sides of this where if you are not managing expectations externally, 304 00:12:53,508 --> 00:12:56,868 Speaker 10: what happens is fans get excited, they do extra spending, 305 00:12:57,028 --> 00:13:00,268 Speaker 10: they get worked up, the media gets worked up. And 306 00:13:00,348 --> 00:13:03,428 Speaker 10: if you fail or you fall short of whatever the 307 00:13:03,508 --> 00:13:07,068 Speaker 10: expectations are, it's a ten win ten win season or 308 00:13:07,108 --> 00:13:09,908 Speaker 10: a nine win season, and that falls short and doesn't 309 00:13:09,908 --> 00:13:13,388 Speaker 10: get you where you want to be. Whether there's something 310 00:13:13,428 --> 00:13:16,388 Speaker 10: you control or can't control that gets you to that 311 00:13:16,548 --> 00:13:19,868 Speaker 10: bad spot, fans don't care. And what you have to 312 00:13:19,868 --> 00:13:21,748 Speaker 10: do is make sure that you haven't put yourself in 313 00:13:21,748 --> 00:13:25,468 Speaker 10: a situation to not be able to live up to 314 00:13:25,548 --> 00:13:28,988 Speaker 10: expectations because something happened that was way out of your control. 315 00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:32,708 Speaker 4: Yeah, Scot, I love the lessons from dad right there, 316 00:13:32,708 --> 00:13:34,748 Speaker 4: and probably some lessons from your brother to mess around 317 00:13:34,788 --> 00:13:38,028 Speaker 4: and find out. I think everybody knows what that means. Listen, 318 00:13:38,468 --> 00:13:41,868 Speaker 4: while everybody's reading books on beaches and playing golf and 319 00:13:41,908 --> 00:13:46,428 Speaker 4: planning vacations, you're doing something else. You're attending all these seminars. 320 00:13:46,468 --> 00:13:49,668 Speaker 4: The NFL just held it's third annual Ozzie Newsome General 321 00:13:49,708 --> 00:13:51,788 Speaker 4: Manager for him and actually I think that's him over 322 00:13:51,828 --> 00:13:56,268 Speaker 4: your right shoulder behind you. And also this annual Coaching 323 00:13:56,308 --> 00:13:58,708 Speaker 4: Summit last week. You were on hand for both of them. 324 00:13:59,148 --> 00:14:00,468 Speaker 8: Tell us all about. 325 00:14:00,188 --> 00:14:02,228 Speaker 4: The action and the conversation that took place there. 326 00:14:04,508 --> 00:14:07,188 Speaker 10: Was absolutely awesome because what it really is, it's kind 327 00:14:07,228 --> 00:14:11,908 Speaker 10: of like an old school training for coaches. It's an 328 00:14:11,948 --> 00:14:14,988 Speaker 10: ability to go to a clinic and network and learn 329 00:14:15,108 --> 00:14:18,068 Speaker 10: and listen to people, and it's something that's not done 330 00:14:18,108 --> 00:14:20,388 Speaker 10: a lot like it used to be done. And this 331 00:14:20,428 --> 00:14:23,348 Speaker 10: week was absolutely incredible because some of the people that 332 00:14:23,388 --> 00:14:26,988 Speaker 10: were there as attendees also spoke. You know, at one 333 00:14:27,028 --> 00:14:29,788 Speaker 10: point in time, Ian Cunningham was who's the assistant GM 334 00:14:29,908 --> 00:14:31,788 Speaker 10: of the Bears, was up there and I. 335 00:14:31,708 --> 00:14:32,508 Speaker 8: Listened to him talk. 336 00:14:32,588 --> 00:14:35,788 Speaker 10: I listened to his detail, how organized he was, his 337 00:14:35,948 --> 00:14:37,228 Speaker 10: process that he went through. 338 00:14:37,628 --> 00:14:40,228 Speaker 8: This guy should be a GM. He's going to be 339 00:14:40,268 --> 00:14:40,788 Speaker 8: a GM. 340 00:14:41,148 --> 00:14:44,468 Speaker 10: He was raised actually in his first job under Ozzie Newsom. 341 00:14:44,548 --> 00:14:45,548 Speaker 8: So that was pretty cool. 342 00:14:45,748 --> 00:14:47,628 Speaker 10: But then the coaches got up there and there was 343 00:14:47,668 --> 00:14:49,788 Speaker 10: a great group of coaches that went up and spoke. 344 00:14:50,188 --> 00:14:52,148 Speaker 8: Brian Johnson from the Eagles was there. 345 00:14:52,428 --> 00:14:54,748 Speaker 10: Another guy that was there was Charles London, who's a 346 00:14:54,788 --> 00:14:58,308 Speaker 10: new passing coordinator of the Tennessee Titans. Charles got up 347 00:14:58,348 --> 00:15:00,428 Speaker 10: there and spoke and I listened to him, and it 348 00:15:00,468 --> 00:15:03,988 Speaker 10: was this really cool, full circle moment. But you know, 349 00:15:04,028 --> 00:15:06,468 Speaker 10: you'll re Charles's bio. You see that he played at 350 00:15:06,508 --> 00:15:09,268 Speaker 10: Duke and he's got a degree from Duke. You'll see 351 00:15:09,268 --> 00:15:11,388 Speaker 10: that he had all these jobs in football. But the 352 00:15:11,508 --> 00:15:14,468 Speaker 10: job that's missing on his resume was in two thousand 353 00:15:14,508 --> 00:15:17,428 Speaker 10: and one, when we moved to Gellette Stadium, Charles was 354 00:15:17,428 --> 00:15:21,188 Speaker 10: our director of facilities. Had absolutely nothing to do with football, 355 00:15:21,228 --> 00:15:21,748 Speaker 10: even though. 356 00:15:21,628 --> 00:15:23,988 Speaker 8: He loved it. He thought he wanted to get into coaching. 357 00:15:24,388 --> 00:15:26,748 Speaker 10: This guy put in the work, he didn't care what 358 00:15:26,788 --> 00:15:29,268 Speaker 10: he did, and for three years he was in charge 359 00:15:29,228 --> 00:15:32,948 Speaker 10: of Gellette Stadium. Facilities with Dan Murphy, and any time 360 00:15:32,988 --> 00:15:35,508 Speaker 10: you needed something done, it didn't matter what time it was, 361 00:15:35,988 --> 00:15:38,868 Speaker 10: Charles was there. He's now again sitting there as a 362 00:15:38,908 --> 00:15:41,588 Speaker 10: passing coordinator of the Tennessee Titans. Because he's put in 363 00:15:41,628 --> 00:15:45,068 Speaker 10: the work, he continues to train, continues to learn. Watched 364 00:15:45,108 --> 00:15:47,308 Speaker 10: him teach some folks. He's a name to watch. 365 00:15:49,348 --> 00:15:51,148 Speaker 9: Charles has a lot of fun to talk to every time. 366 00:15:51,268 --> 00:15:54,028 Speaker 9: Learn something about football from him too, Scott, last thing 367 00:15:54,068 --> 00:15:55,628 Speaker 9: for you, real quick. I want to ask you a 368 00:15:55,708 --> 00:15:58,468 Speaker 9: question we talked about on the show yesterday, but give 369 00:15:58,508 --> 00:15:59,748 Speaker 9: it a front office twist for us. 370 00:15:59,748 --> 00:16:00,468 Speaker 5: Okay, from that. 371 00:16:00,468 --> 00:16:04,988 Speaker 9: Perspective, would you rather win one Super Bowl and be 372 00:16:05,148 --> 00:16:08,908 Speaker 9: mediocre for the next ten seasons or spend ten seasons 373 00:16:08,948 --> 00:16:13,268 Speaker 9: being consistently competitive but you can't guarantee a championship. 374 00:16:15,868 --> 00:16:17,748 Speaker 10: I'm going with the ladder put me in a position 375 00:16:17,868 --> 00:16:20,828 Speaker 10: to win championships. So I was watching you guys. Yes, 376 00:16:20,988 --> 00:16:23,788 Speaker 10: I pulled out some stuff. Here's a prop for everybody. 377 00:16:23,988 --> 00:16:28,868 Speaker 10: This is our Patriots scouting Oh I think you guys 378 00:16:28,868 --> 00:16:31,348 Speaker 10: lost me. This is our Patriots scouting manual. 379 00:16:32,388 --> 00:16:33,788 Speaker 8: It says we're building. 380 00:16:34,188 --> 00:16:38,548 Speaker 10: A big, strong, fast, tough, smart, discipline football team that 381 00:16:38,668 --> 00:16:41,068 Speaker 10: consistently competes for championships. 382 00:16:41,308 --> 00:16:41,868 Speaker 8: Here's the thing. 383 00:16:42,348 --> 00:16:45,508 Speaker 10: You need to consistently be in a position to compete 384 00:16:45,548 --> 00:16:48,948 Speaker 10: for championships so you actually have a chance to win. 385 00:16:49,388 --> 00:16:50,228 Speaker 8: And here's the other thing. 386 00:16:50,268 --> 00:16:53,468 Speaker 10: Along with leadership comes a great deal of responsibility and 387 00:16:53,508 --> 00:16:56,148 Speaker 10: an obligation. It's not just to the players, it's not 388 00:16:56,348 --> 00:16:59,228 Speaker 10: just to the coaches, it's to everybody that is working 389 00:16:59,308 --> 00:17:01,588 Speaker 10: under you and their families. Now, if you win one 390 00:17:01,988 --> 00:17:04,228 Speaker 10: and then you stink really bad and you go all 391 00:17:04,268 --> 00:17:05,068 Speaker 10: in to win. 392 00:17:04,988 --> 00:17:07,148 Speaker 8: That one, people get fired. 393 00:17:07,508 --> 00:17:10,308 Speaker 10: What happens is usually general managers and head coaches get 394 00:17:10,348 --> 00:17:13,548 Speaker 10: contract extensions after that big win, and then when you're 395 00:17:13,628 --> 00:17:16,548 Speaker 10: not good, people start to get fired in a lot 396 00:17:16,588 --> 00:17:19,188 Speaker 10: of different roles, people that counted on you and that 397 00:17:19,268 --> 00:17:21,988 Speaker 10: you counted on. So to me, I believe that there's 398 00:17:21,988 --> 00:17:25,148 Speaker 10: this greater responsibility put yourself in a position to win 399 00:17:25,588 --> 00:17:28,468 Speaker 10: or have a chance to win every single year. 400 00:17:30,108 --> 00:17:33,708 Speaker 7: Scott p onli I mentioned NFL research they checked in 401 00:17:33,788 --> 00:17:34,748 Speaker 7: during this conversation. 402 00:17:34,908 --> 00:17:36,708 Speaker 8: Said, in all of. 403 00:17:36,628 --> 00:17:39,668 Speaker 7: Your years in this earth, your butt's never bounced the check. 404 00:17:39,748 --> 00:17:48,988 Speaker 8: So congratulations to you on that.

That's my biggest thing 426 00:18:46,588 --> 00:18:49,308 Speaker 11: is just priding myself on knowing that I can get 427 00:18:49,308 --> 00:18:49,868 Speaker 11: the job. 428 00:18:49,748 --> 00:18:51,588 Speaker 3: Done, knowing that I can still play this game. 429 00:18:51,428 --> 00:18:53,748 Speaker 11: At a high level and still compete to be one 430 00:18:53,748 --> 00:18:55,748 Speaker 11: of the best linebackers in the league. All I need 431 00:18:55,828 --> 00:18:58,068 Speaker 11: is one team to believe in me and give the 432 00:18:58,148 --> 00:19:01,908 Speaker 11: opportunity and I'll show the rest. But I'm embracing where 433 00:19:01,948 --> 00:19:05,548 Speaker 11: I am just controlling what I can control, and I've 434 00:19:05,548 --> 00:19:08,588 Speaker 11: been down this road, so you got to keep grinding. 435 00:19:11,028 --> 00:19:11,348 Speaker 5: Jyalen. 436 00:19:11,388 --> 00:19:14,988 Speaker 9: I met you back in twenty sixteen in Fort Wayne. 437 00:19:15,028 --> 00:19:17,788 Speaker 9: It was about three months after you had your knee surgery. 438 00:19:17,828 --> 00:19:19,708 Speaker 9: It was the first interview that you had done at 439 00:19:19,708 --> 00:19:22,268 Speaker 9: that point. I remember walking away and being so struck 440 00:19:22,308 --> 00:19:26,948 Speaker 9: by how upbeat and positive you were under the circumstances. 441 00:19:27,068 --> 00:19:30,108 Speaker 9: How does the knee feel these days? And also just 442 00:19:30,148 --> 00:19:32,468 Speaker 9: how would you say that going through that ordeal is 443 00:19:32,508 --> 00:19:34,148 Speaker 9: shaped who you are today? 444 00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:39,948 Speaker 11: Man, the knee is great, I would say, you know, 445 00:19:40,388 --> 00:19:44,508 Speaker 11: entering the draft after my career threatnee injury and not 446 00:19:44,708 --> 00:19:47,388 Speaker 11: knowing you know, doctors, never thinking that I was going 447 00:19:47,428 --> 00:19:48,468 Speaker 11: to play again and all. 448 00:19:48,348 --> 00:19:49,028 Speaker 3: Of that good stuff. 449 00:19:49,028 --> 00:19:52,148 Speaker 11: The Cowboys took a chance on me and I had 450 00:19:52,148 --> 00:19:54,468 Speaker 11: to reserve my whole rookie year, so I took my 451 00:19:54,588 --> 00:19:59,468 Speaker 11: time really coming back and getting this thing underway. So 452 00:19:59,748 --> 00:20:01,628 Speaker 11: I would say the biggest thing for me is just 453 00:20:01,668 --> 00:20:05,868 Speaker 11: like see it, watching the film and seeing the production 454 00:20:05,988 --> 00:20:09,668 Speaker 11: that I CAUs you know, I got to New York 455 00:20:09,788 --> 00:20:13,388 Speaker 11: last year around week four and we went on that street. 456 00:20:13,508 --> 00:20:16,388 Speaker 11: No one expected us to make the playoffs or anything, 457 00:20:16,988 --> 00:20:18,948 Speaker 11: and I had a big part to do with that. 458 00:20:19,148 --> 00:20:21,588 Speaker 11: Just like I said, outside of production in the middle, 459 00:20:21,988 --> 00:20:25,508 Speaker 11: just an overall leadership and understanding that man, it takes 460 00:20:25,508 --> 00:20:28,588 Speaker 11: a village. You can't do this thing alone. So the 461 00:20:28,628 --> 00:20:31,828 Speaker 11: biggest thing for me is just staying prepared, stand ready. 462 00:20:32,708 --> 00:20:35,588 Speaker 11: I just turned twenty eight last week.

Two years ago, Washington was a 502 00:22:41,628 --> 00:22:44,588 Speaker 11: top of the conference and no one thought that would happen. 503 00:22:45,828 --> 00:22:48,588 Speaker 3: So I think you just gotta let this thing play out. 504 00:22:49,028 --> 00:22:52,268 Speaker 11: I think after about a week eight you kind of 505 00:22:52,308 --> 00:22:55,548 Speaker 11: got an idea of you know, who's who's the better 506 00:22:55,588 --> 00:22:56,588 Speaker 11: team in the conference? 507 00:22:57,508 --> 00:23:00,708 Speaker 3: You know that year, So I think you gotta wait 508 00:23:00,748 --> 00:23:03,508 Speaker 3: it out. It's always exciting. It's the reason why the 509 00:23:03,988 --> 00:23:04,948 Speaker 3: NFC East is. 510 00:23:05,628 --> 00:23:09,348 Speaker 11: The best, you know, the best conference in football if 511 00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:12,148 Speaker 11: you look at history and uh in my opinion and 512 00:23:12,188 --> 00:23:14,148 Speaker 11: in a lot of other people's opinion, and it's and 513 00:23:14,188 --> 00:23:16,588 Speaker 11: it's so exciting to play in the conference because you 514 00:23:16,708 --> 00:23:20,268 Speaker 11: just don't know, you know what's gonna come out. You know, 515 00:23:20,348 --> 00:23:22,708 Speaker 11: the team that you play is it's a rival opponent 516 00:23:22,828 --> 00:23:25,348 Speaker 11: each you know, each time, you know, they go up 517 00:23:25,388 --> 00:23:25,988 Speaker 11: against each other. 518 00:23:27,428 --> 00:23:29,788 Speaker 4: Yeah, Jal, And that was a very politically correct answer 519 00:23:29,868 --> 00:23:33,268 Speaker 4: by you, and also well done as a her free agent. 520 00:23:33,308 --> 00:23:36,228 Speaker 4: You don't want to close any doors, so well played 521 00:23:36,308 --> 00:23:39,228 Speaker 4: right there. Listen. It was it was awesome to watch 522 00:23:39,268 --> 00:23:40,908 Speaker 4: you play for the Giants, and you mentioned you just 523 00:23:40,948 --> 00:23:42,748 Speaker 4: showed up kind of week four right there, and just 524 00:23:42,948 --> 00:23:45,308 Speaker 4: you know, hopped right in there. And yet the production 525 00:23:45,468 --> 00:23:47,268 Speaker 4: was there second on the team and tackle, So you 526 00:23:47,268 --> 00:23:51,628 Speaker 4: were absolutely an impact on the field from the production standpoint. 527 00:23:51,628 --> 00:23:53,708 Speaker 4: But the other thing that I noticed, and I love 528 00:23:53,788 --> 00:23:56,228 Speaker 4: watching you play, whether it was with the Cowboys or 529 00:23:56,228 --> 00:23:58,188 Speaker 4: with the Giants, was the amount of energy that you 530 00:23:58,228 --> 00:24:01,388 Speaker 4: bring to every single game that is contagious and when 531 00:24:01,388 --> 00:24:04,028 Speaker 4: you make a play. I always used to watch, all right, 532 00:24:04,068 --> 00:24:06,628 Speaker 4: who to a guy? Whenever a guy makes a highlight play, 533 00:24:06,628 --> 00:24:09,028 Speaker 4: a tackle, or a big play, does the whole team 534 00:24:09,108 --> 00:24:10,868 Speaker 4: rally around him? And every time you made a play, 535 00:24:11,188 --> 00:24:12,868 Speaker 4: people were coming off the bench that come over. So 536 00:24:13,108 --> 00:24:16,068 Speaker 4: that speaks volumes to your leadership and to what you're 537 00:24:16,148 --> 00:24:18,748 Speaker 4: like in the locker room as well. So let's take 538 00:24:18,828 --> 00:24:20,788 Speaker 4: us let's go back inside that locker room last year. 539 00:24:20,988 --> 00:24:23,948 Speaker 4: All right, you've played with Dak Prescott, you played with 540 00:24:24,068 --> 00:24:27,548 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones now and I feel like, you know, as 541 00:24:27,588 --> 00:24:29,668 Speaker 4: a quarterback, you've made it. When you get a nickname, 542 00:24:29,828 --> 00:24:33,028 Speaker 4: you guys named him Vanilla Vic. Take us through, how 543 00:24:33,028 --> 00:24:35,268 Speaker 4: did this come up with it? Who gave him the nickname? 544 00:24:35,748 --> 00:24:37,988 Speaker 4: And is he really that fast? 545 00:24:40,188 --> 00:24:44,348 Speaker 11: Honestly, he is and I remember playing against him when 546 00:24:44,388 --> 00:24:47,308 Speaker 11: I was in Dallas his first and second year in 547 00:24:47,348 --> 00:24:50,908 Speaker 11: the league and getting to see his speed. But last 548 00:24:50,948 --> 00:24:55,788 Speaker 11: year he unleashed, and I think he started to understand that, Okay, 549 00:24:55,788 --> 00:24:58,508 Speaker 11: if his reads aren't there, he can use. 550 00:24:58,348 --> 00:24:59,628 Speaker 3: This guy given abilities. 551 00:25:00,148 --> 00:25:03,268 Speaker 11: And once he got and once he built some confidence, Okay, 552 00:25:03,308 --> 00:25:07,868 Speaker 11: now Dable started designing run plays behind him, and you know, 553 00:25:08,508 --> 00:25:11,388 Speaker 11: kind of a Lamar Jackson type of type of vibe 554 00:25:11,388 --> 00:25:13,068 Speaker 11: and and we all loved it. 555 00:25:13,068 --> 00:25:14,348 Speaker 3: We rooted behind him. 556 00:25:15,388 --> 00:25:18,428 Speaker 11: When he runs, it builds confidence and we all love that. 557 00:25:19,028 --> 00:25:20,308 Speaker 3: So the Vanilla Vick. 558 00:25:20,268 --> 00:25:23,068 Speaker 11: I think Sterling, I think Sterling Shepherd gave him that nickname, 559 00:25:24,188 --> 00:25:27,348 Speaker 11: and we all just ranted. But he's fast, like he's 560 00:25:27,388 --> 00:25:30,628 Speaker 11: he's legit fast, like the whole thing. 561 00:25:30,828 --> 00:25:34,828 Speaker 3: Like white Man can't jump. This guy can really really run. 562 00:25:35,108 --> 00:25:38,148 Speaker 11: And uh, you gotta be and the defenders gotta gotta 563 00:25:38,188 --> 00:25:41,708 Speaker 11: take account of that. So I started to see later 564 00:25:41,748 --> 00:25:45,308 Speaker 11: in the season, and especially in the playoffs, there were 565 00:25:45,668 --> 00:25:50,908 Speaker 11: teams that were putting spies on Daniel Jones who really 566 00:25:50,948 --> 00:25:54,308 Speaker 11: just take you know, respects to his running up, you 567 00:25:54,348 --> 00:25:57,428 Speaker 11: know ability. So you know, anytime you got a game 568 00:25:57,468 --> 00:25:59,468 Speaker 11: plan around something like that is legit. 569 00:26:00,908 --> 00:26:06,948 Speaker 5: Give him the jump.

The optimism right now for the Lions, 672 00:30:10,828 --> 00:30:13,028 Speaker 9: based on how you guys finished, is at an all 673 00:30:13,108 --> 00:30:16,228 Speaker 9: time hot. What is the feeling like in the locker room, 674 00:30:16,268 --> 00:30:19,708 Speaker 9: and how is the dealing team dealing with the outside noise, 675 00:30:19,828 --> 00:30:22,708 Speaker 9: noise and expectations that really haven't existed for the Lions 676 00:30:22,708 --> 00:30:23,348 Speaker 9: in a long time. 677 00:30:24,788 --> 00:30:27,748 Speaker 12: I agree, man, We just we're just knocking out of 678 00:30:27,748 --> 00:30:29,988 Speaker 12: the South noise, you know, even though they gave us 679 00:30:29,988 --> 00:30:32,948 Speaker 12: a big game, you know, the NFL kickoff versus Kansas City. Man, 680 00:30:32,948 --> 00:30:35,348 Speaker 12: we're not looking at into nothing like that. We're just 681 00:30:35,348 --> 00:30:37,108 Speaker 12: going out there and ready to compete. Man, you know, 682 00:30:37,948 --> 00:30:40,148 Speaker 12: bounce back out from last season. You know, we finished 683 00:30:40,148 --> 00:30:42,428 Speaker 12: pretty strong and we just want to keep that momentum 684 00:30:42,428 --> 00:30:45,868 Speaker 12: going pass over to this upcoming season. So we really 685 00:30:45,908 --> 00:30:48,148 Speaker 12: don't know, pay attention to the media and things like that, 686 00:30:48,188 --> 00:30:51,588 Speaker 12: you know, because just because they know that we were 687 00:30:51,628 --> 00:30:53,748 Speaker 12: on the rise to be great and we just want 688 00:30:53,748 --> 00:30:55,908 Speaker 12: to keep going and get better game by game a 689 00:30:55,908 --> 00:30:56,508 Speaker 12: week right week. 690 00:30:58,028 --> 00:31:00,068 Speaker 2: Well, while we're talking about hype, there's a guy in 691 00:31:00,108 --> 00:31:02,748 Speaker 2: your team that we think maybe should get more hype 692 00:31:02,828 --> 00:31:04,748 Speaker 2: than he's gotten certainly in the past. A guy that 693 00:31:04,788 --> 00:31:08,268 Speaker 2: considers himself an underdog. I'm on ros Saint Brown, who's 694 00:31:08,348 --> 00:31:11,028 Speaker 2: drafting the fourth round couple of years back, quickly gotten 695 00:31:11,028 --> 00:31:14,108 Speaker 2: the reputation of one of the most slept on wideouts 696 00:31:14,428 --> 00:31:17,468 Speaker 2: in the game. Although that's gonna change. You go against 697 00:31:17,508 --> 00:31:19,748 Speaker 2: him in practice on a daily basis, tell us what 698 00:31:19,828 --> 00:31:21,028 Speaker 2: makes him so special? 699 00:31:22,468 --> 00:31:22,628 Speaker 11: Man? 700 00:31:22,668 --> 00:31:25,148 Speaker 3: He can do it all. I'm rov Saint Brown is 701 00:31:25,228 --> 00:31:29,108 Speaker 3: like he's a slot receiver. But you're telling me. 702 00:31:29,388 --> 00:31:33,388 Speaker 12: A guy with coming in a block linebacker in DM 703 00:31:33,628 --> 00:31:38,148 Speaker 12: you know, just to strain strained his blood. But his teammates, man, 704 00:31:38,188 --> 00:31:39,268 Speaker 12: that's passion guy. 705 00:31:39,348 --> 00:31:39,508 Speaker 3: Man. 706 00:31:39,748 --> 00:31:41,548 Speaker 11: I love going to work with him. 707 00:31:42,148 --> 00:31:42,308 Speaker 3: Man. 708 00:31:42,308 --> 00:31:45,188 Speaker 12: He just compete, you know, he don't give up a dog. 709 00:31:45,588 --> 00:31:47,348 Speaker 12: Like I said, I love going against on the credit. 710 00:31:47,388 --> 00:31:49,148 Speaker 12: We just make each other better, you know, and we 711 00:31:49,268 --> 00:31:49,828 Speaker 12: just compete. 712 00:31:52,188 --> 00:31:54,988 Speaker 4: Jerry Dan Campbell is one of our favorite people in 713 00:31:55,028 --> 00:31:58,308 Speaker 4: the entire league right now. And we have a guy 714 00:31:58,468 --> 00:32:00,828 Speaker 4: that usually sits here at this table call brand does 715 00:32:00,828 --> 00:32:03,628 Speaker 4: a great Dan Campbell personation. Where on the street is 716 00:32:03,668 --> 00:32:05,548 Speaker 4: you've got a couple guys in your locker room that 717 00:32:05,708 --> 00:32:09,028 Speaker 4: do great Dan Campbell impersonations?
