Speaker 1: social platform?

9
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: I'm not on TikTok. I haven't made the leap there

10
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: on Instagram, on Twitter, X use Facebook still to post stories,

11
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 2: but I'm not on TikTok. I'm on Snapchat, but just

12
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: to my wife, my daughter, and my son. I've got

13
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: a twenty three hundred day street going with my daughter,

14
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: which is so I ought to send her snap maybe

15
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 2: from in here, but you should should.

16
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, Okay, let's do it here.

17
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: That's one every day. So I've done it for twenty

18
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 2: three hundred days in a row of sent her a snap.

19
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: So so you take a picture, take a picture.

20
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 2: I'll take a picture of all us in here, and

21
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 2: then I just send that to her and then she'll

22
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: send me what she's doing during the course of her day.

23
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: It's just uh, I talk to her as well. I

24
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 2: just don't snap. But apparently young people they don't. I

25
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: ask her, well, if you talk so and so. Now

26
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 2: I haven't talked to him about my snapper every day,

27
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 2: so I guess young people just communicate by snapping.

28
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: Nobody talks on the phone. Yeah, the streak is my mother. Yes,

29
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 1: I will talk on the phone for quite a while.

30
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, don't answer my like my phone ring on

31
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 2: my phone rings, you know, fifteen times a day from

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 2: tellmarkers and uh spam calls my dad. I try to

33
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: help my dad on different things, and sometimes I'll tell them, Dad,

34
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: if somebody's got a question, you just tell them to

35
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 2: call me. Don't don't. Don't deal with these people anymore.

36
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 2: They're trying to sell himself with the phone. So he

37
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 2: apparently gave somebody with Medicare my phone number, and I

38
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 2: get about fifteen calls from Medicare. And if people want

39
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: to know if I need any kind of devices as

40
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 2: I get older, they think i'm him. So I get

41
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 2: all his Medicare calls about fifteen a day.

42
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 3: Oh nice, thanks Dad.

43
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: Your parents just keep on giving all the way through

44
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: all right, So this is OTP pre game. Jim Wyatt

45
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: is sitting in the Snickers hot seat, which he likes

46
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: because he's a huge Snickers fan.

47
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: Sure do you like Snickers?

48
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: Yes? So we have five topics that we're going to

49
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: bring up till are you and you're not prepared for

50
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: these five topics? Obviously just about candy.

51
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 3: He's Jim. He's always prepared.

52
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: He's always prepared.

53
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 2: Ask if I needed my Packers depth chart here?

54
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: You know. I mean, we're going to hit some Packers stuff,

55
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: but I think you'll be okay.

56
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 3: Uh.

57
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 1: Topic one on the OTP pre game. What do you

58
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: remember about Thursday November seventeenth, twenty twenty two when the

59
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: Titans won at Green Bay on Thursday night football? Oh? Man,

60
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: you remember the final score?

61
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 2: M What was the final score of that game? Don't

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: remember the final score?

63
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: I remember my.

64
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: Niece was at the game. Okay, didn't get this, didn't

65
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 2: get to see her.

66
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: What was the final score that twenty seven to seventeen

67
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: Titans won?

68
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 3: Yep, I was cheating.

69
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: Twenty seven seventeen. It was a Ryan Tannehill had a

70
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 2: decent game.

71
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: And Ran Tannehill had a very good game. Actually, he

72
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 1: threw for over three hundred yards three hundred and thirty

73
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: three yards and a couple of touchdowns, completed twenty two

74
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: of twenty seven passes, one twenty seven point three passer rating.

75
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: Yes, I remember him having a great game, and I

76
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: remember leaving there feeling like the team had a lot

77
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: of momentum.

78
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: Titans were seven and three leaving there.

79
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: And then I remember it not going so well after that.

80
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought on that day that the Titans were

81
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 3: never going to lose another game, like this is it.

82
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: This is where the streak just takes on.

83
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: Seven and three at that point, Traylon Burke's best game

84
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: is Titan Yes, seven catches for one hundred eleven yards,

85
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 1: including a fifty one yard catch. Derek Henry threw a

86
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: touchdown pass to jeff Swain, Jeffrey Simmons had a sack, sure,

87
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 1: and they kind of did to Aaron Ers. Aaron Rodgers

88
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: had basically the exact same game that night for the

89
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: Packers that he did last Sunday for the Jets. Two

90
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 1: touchdown passes, ninety four point seven quarterback rating, nothing great

91
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,359
Speaker 1: but just very efficient. But boy, what all has changed

92
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: since that night in Green Bay?

93
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the start of an end of a

94
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: rough season and kind of got us to where we

95
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 2: are today with a new coach and kind of starting

96
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: over with a new team. But feel like we're all

97
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 2: the right path. Just need to win a couple of

98
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 2: games here and get some momentum.

99
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 1: The Packers have a lot of familiar names that are

100
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: still with the team. They've obviously added players over the

101
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 1: course of the last two seasons, but they are just

102
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: such a consistently built organization.

103
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they don't do it by spending a lot

104
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 2: of money in free agency or being real aggressive when

105
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: it comes to player acquisition. They draft, they try to

106
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 2: retain their own guys. They've got an approach that they

107
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 2: believe in and they stick to it. And you know,

108
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 2: I was impressed by what they did this past week,

109
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 2: winning and winning against the Colts without Jordan Love. And

110
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: that is in large part because of the system that

111
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 2: they have in place and the guys they have leading

112
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 2: the way.

113
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: Better on defense than what people know. They have a

114
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: good offensive line. But the other thing too, that they

115
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: do with receivers that's so impressive is they find their

116
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 1: receivers largely at the Senior Bowl. Yeah, Yeah, it's really fascinating.

117
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 1: So Christian Watson, Romeo Dobbs, right, and they find and

118
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: you go back to the Jordie Nelsons and the Randall

119
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: Cobbs and all of these other guys. So they find

120
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: fits that are perfect. Jayden Reid, their slot receiver, was

121
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 1: a guy that really impressed us at the Senior Bowl

122
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: and the Senior and he was drafted in the second round.

123
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: So they find system fits. And because the system is

124
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: so well established, they can have a second or third

125
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: or fourth round receiver become a star. They don't have

126
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: to draft the guy in the top ten. They can

127
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: find a defensive lineman that would become a star for

128
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: them because like the Steelers, like the raven and they

129
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: have that system in place. They have the scouting staff

130
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: in place, they keep the general managers in place, the

131
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: head coach, I mean, their head coach has been there

132
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: now for six years, which is hard to believe that

133
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: it really is. It really is.

134
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: And I think you know you're starting to see the

135
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: team here do that a little bit as far as

136
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 2: I think you know that. Look at the number of

137
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 2: players here that were in the Senior Bowl last year

138
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: and in some of the Senior Bowls in the past

139
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 2: and you want to get as system in place and

140
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: stick with it.

141
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,679
Speaker 1: No, that's what you know. Chad Brinker, ran.

142
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: Carthon, you know, Brian Callahan, all want to do and

143
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: that's just a matter of getting consistency and just cycling

144
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 2: guys in.

145
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: And where does Chad Brinker come from?

146
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 3: Green Bay the epitome of old school NFL.

147
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: You know, they now have the NFL record for wins,

148
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:03,679
Speaker 1: They have overtaken the Bears, and they just last Sunday

149
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: won their eight hundredth game in the.

150
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 3: National Football Do you get a cake or something for

151
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 3: that eight hundred games as a franchise win.

152
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: I would say to you, not meaning to be facetious.

153
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: Normally in that situation you would probably give the owner

154
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: a cake. But they have no single owner.

155
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 3: So everybody gets cake. The community.

156
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: The community, the community in essence owns the Green Bay Packers, which.

157
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 3: Is so cool.

158
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,079
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, the owners don't just love it in the

159
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: league because since the Packers are public, you can you know,

160
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: you can buy the share of stock and all that.

161
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: And then you go to the shareholders meeting, which they

162
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: have every year, they tell everyone what they got from

163
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 1: the league dispersal. They tell everyone all of these things.

164
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: So the owners are not phenomenally crazy about that. When

165
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: that information gets out from the Packers shareholders meeting, it's official, Yeah,

166
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: because they've told their shareholders what it is. The the

167
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: the NFL is not a publicly traded company. They don't

168
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: really want to share that information, and yet the Packers, yes,

169
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 1: have to share it with the group.

170
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 3: Interesting the things you never think about.

171
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: Well, I think about that.

172
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure a lot of people think a lot

173
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 3: of people in Green Bay probably think about it too,

174
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 3: But I never have.

175
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: Do you know someone who owns the sheriff stock in

176
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: the Packers? I don't know.

177
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 2: I have. I have a sister that lives uh in

178
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: Milwaukee and her husband to who's Packers family. I don't

179
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 2: think they own a share of the Packers.

180
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: I know a couple of people who come.

181
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 3: Can I ask a silly question, Sure, do you get

182
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 3: like a like a check in the mail? I don't

183
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: think Or does it just kind of go back into

184
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: the park collect I don't think there's a there's not

185
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 3: like a buyout.

186
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a public dispersal.

187
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: Interesting, so it just kind of goes back into the pot.

188
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 3: But they are kind of in the know of like

189
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 3: financially what's that?

190
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 1: And you get to go you get to go here

191
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: the president, who's I think getting ready to cycle out

192
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: Mark Murphy. They have the annual gathering and they I

193
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 1: think they do it at Lambeau. I think they do

194
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: it become the stadium.

195
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 3: It's like the State of the Union.

196
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: Whi's what it is.

197
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 3: It's very cool. Yes, it's just different. I like different,

198
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 3: all right.

199
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: Topic number two on the OTP pre game every Thursday.

200
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: It posts at eight o'clock Central time. Jim whittt pass

201
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: catcher that needs a breakout game to help Will levis Aby.

202
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: You can answer this too if you'd like.

203
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 3: I shall you know?

204
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 2: I think you know? Does Sunday kind is a breakout

205
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 2: game for Kylin Ridley. I mean, I guess it does.

206
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 2: I think it touchdowns? So because I think he's just

207
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 2: scratching the surface on what that's going to be. I mean,

208
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 2: I think more is coming from him, So I think

209
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: i'd say DeAndre Hopkins. I mean it just because he

210
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 2: has been pretty much invisible the first couple of weeks.

211
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 2: Part of that's because he's not hasn't been completely healthy.

212
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 2: Another part of us because they just haven't worked him

213
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: in from a snap standpoint. You know, Brian Callahan talked

214
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 2: earlier this week just about wanting to make him the

215
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 2: primary receiver on some plays, which is going to lead

216
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: to him getting the ball more. I think if you

217
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 2: can start taking advantage of Hopkins and him winning one

218
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 2: on ones, that opens things up for other people. So

219
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: I mean, so far it's been quiet for Hopkins, has

220
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 2: been quiet for Boyd, has been quiet really for everybody

221
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 2: except for Ridley's you know, big catch on Sunday. So

222
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 2: I'll go Hopkins here. I think. I think he needs

223
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 2: to kind of get into a groove and turn into

224
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 2: a threat that other teams have to worry about.

225
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 3: I say, Traylon Burkes, I think it is. I think

226
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 3: for his his own personal career, it's time for him

227
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: to show what we've all seen him do in practice.

228
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 3: It's time for that to translate into a game and

229
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 3: for him to have a really big game. I think

230
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 3: it's obvious in watching them work together that Will Levis

231
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 3: has a good rapport with Traylon Burg'd be dire, right,

232
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 3: and so I think that that is a well that

233
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 3: he is going to go to every Sunday. If given

234
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 3: the opportunity because I think that there's a familiarity there.

235
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 3: Now it's on Trailan to complete the play, to finish

236
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 3: the job, and so I think that if he can

237
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 3: have a breakout game on Sunday, I think that if

238
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 3: those two can get some traction under their wheels a

239
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 3: little bit and really start to make something happen, I

240
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 3: think that can be a really good thing for all

241
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 3: people involved.

242
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think Traylan needs some good things to

243
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 2: happen to him to build confidence. I mean, they've talked

244
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 2: him up so much during the course of this offseason.

245
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: I don't care whether it's a quarterback or the coordinator,

246
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 2: or the head coach or the they've all set bragged

247
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 2: on him. But there comes a time where he has

248
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 2: to start making some plays, I think, to generate some

249
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 2: confidence for himself. He'd love to see him come down

250
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: with a ball on Sunday. I thought he had a

251
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: better chance to catch it than the Jets defender, but

252
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 2: he didn't come down with him. If he can make

253
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 2: a play like that, but.

254
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 1: What could that have been for him though?

255
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

256
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah.

257
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 2: Instead, it's a momentum play going the other way, and

258
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 2: he has to take advantage of his opportunities when they come.

259
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: All Right, topic, number three Packers player you are most

260
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: worried about from a Titans perspective.

261
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 2: I guess it depends on who the quarterback is. I mean,

262
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 2: if it's Jordan Love, that's who I worry about, just

263
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 2: because he'll give them a lot more on offense. And

264
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 2: I think what Malik Willis would be able to and uh,

265
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 2: you know, Malik proved on Sunday that he can win

266
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: a game. They did it by running the football and

267
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 2: while protecting him and him protecting the ball and him

268
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 2: picking the spots. But if Love's back in there, that

269
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 2: opens up the offense even more and he'd be the

270
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 2: guy I think would be a more much more considerable threat.

271
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 3: Do you have one that was mine? I think I

272
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 3: think that anything else you can game plan for the

273
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 3: wildcard of who's going to be back there is going

274
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 3: to change up what they do schematically enough that there

275
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 3: are reasons to worry about each individual quarterback being back there.

276
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 3: So I think that is the that's the ticket either way.

277
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: Mine's Rashaun Gary.

278
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 3: Really, Okay, that's a good one.

279
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: He is a you know, he doesn't have double digit

280
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: sacks in a season yet, and this is year six

281
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: out of Michigan. But he's a really good pass rusher.

282
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: He's nearly two hundred and eighty pounds, and so he's

283
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: one of those outside linebacker defensive end guys who's less

284
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: linebacker and more defensive lineman. He's really good against the run,

285
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: and he's he's a he's a good power pass rusher

286
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: as well. I mean he's due a double digit sack year.

287
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: I mean that's gonna hap. I mean, he's a really

288
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: good player and so that's going to happen for him

289
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: at some point even and he has won right now

290
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: through the first two games. But yeah, you know, the

291
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 1: the edge guys for the Titans, Latham was was much better.

292
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: Petit Frere did not have a good game. This kind

293
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: of player is a tough player to go against, both

294
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 1: against the run in the past because he's heavy. I

295
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: know the Titans liked him coming out of Michigan. Yeah,

296
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: nobody was. Those players are really hard to project because

297
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: they they're not as twitchy as the six five two

298
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: forty five, two fifty guys. And sometimes you're saying, okay,

299
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: does that guy eat his way further into the defensive

300
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: line yeah, does he become just a guy out there

301
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: or does he morph into this player who does both well?

302
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: And you're like, yeah, we're really glad we drafted him.

303
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 1: That's what happened with him. So that's mine.

304
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 3: That was a good one, Mike, that's a good one.

305
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: And I know we didn't name Josh Jacobs, but he

306
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 2: that's that's a good one to a reason I didn't.

307
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 2: I just I think the Titans defense is gonna be stout.

308
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 2: I mean, especially the way Ernest Jones play. I don't

309
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: care who the running back is. I think they're gonna

310
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 2: be good defensively stopping the run all year. And uh,

311
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: I don't think they have the same success they try

312
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 2: to take that approach against this defense as they did

313
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 2: against the Coles.

314
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 3: I agree.

335
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 2: I didn't realize I was doing a lot on the side.

336
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: Okay. Topic number four for Jim Wyatt is this Titans

337
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 1: defensive player who has been the most pleasant surprise to

338
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: you through two games. And that doesn't mean he's come

339
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: out of nowhere.

340
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean yeah, And I just I wish I

341
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: would have just said his name because Ernest Jones watching

342
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 2: him play on Sunday and I'm watching him from a

343
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 2: far against uh, you know, for the Rams. I knew

344
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 2: he was a good player, but coming to here and

345
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 2: just seeing the attitude he plays, with the way he

346
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 2: runs the football, how physical he is. Knowing that was

347
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 2: just a second game and he's playing every single snap,

348
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 2: I think he qualifies as the most as the the

349
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,879
Speaker 2: biggest eye opener to me, Landry has been very impactful.

350
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 2: Three sacks so far, and I think the corners have

351
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 2: done a mostly solid job. But I'm giving it to

352
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 2: Jones just because I think of what's coming next, and

353
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: we've always seen him one full game.

354
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 3: Mine was Harold Landry. I knew that he would be

355
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 3: back and he would be good, and he was coming

356
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 3: off of a great end to twenty three, and so

357
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 3: we were expecting good and consistent from him. He has

358
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 3: been great, and I think that he exceeded even my

359
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:26,120
Speaker 3: expectations because he's usually a guy that really peeks towards

360
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 3: the mid end of the season, like he typically finishes

361
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 3: strong given that he's healthy. So I was kind of

362
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 3: expecting that again and he I mean, he has come

363
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 3: out guns of blazon early in the season. So what

364
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 3: does that mean for the remainder of the year. Who knows?

365
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 3: Is he just getting fired up? Who knows? But I'm

366
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 3: excited about him. I'm excited watching him play, and I've

367
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 3: been pleasantly surprised about how consistent and how impactful he

368
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 3: has been so early in the season.

369
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: It's a great point. And you know, he stayed hot

370
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 1: for the end of last year. He was hot at

371
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 1: the end of the season. Seemed like he was getting

372
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: a sack every game in November, December, in the first

373
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 1: part of January. And when you have those players get

374
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: on those streaks, I mean you love to see it.

375
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: And he's just kept going.

376
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, he hasn't stopped it. I mean, we spend a

377
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 3: lot of time talking about the big guys, and rightly so,

378
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 3: I mean, we have some great defensive linemen and a

379
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 3: lot of guys to talk about, but Harold Landry always

380
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 3: kind of gets oh yeah, and Harold's there and he's

381
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 3: good too. But I mean, Harold Landry is having a

382
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 3: remarkable first couple of games.

383
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: Well, I mean he's on pace for I mean, he's

384
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: got three sacks through two games. I mean, you keep

385
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: that pace going, you start talking about crazy stuff.

386
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 3: Well that's what I'm saying. I mean, and he could

387
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 3: do crazy stuff, that's right, because he gets he typically

388
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 3: gets better as the season goes on.

389
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: That's very fair.

390
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 3: So there you go.

391
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 1: Okay, topic number five for Jim Wide. Who's in the

392
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 1: Snickers hot seat on this edition of the OTP pre

393
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: Game in our new studio here at Ascension Saint Thomas

394
00:20:58,840 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 1: Sports Park.

395
00:20:59,480 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 3: Isn't it, Coke?

396
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: It really is? Don't you like this?

397
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 2: It is very nice in the fireplace in here?

398
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 1: Getting one?

399
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 2: Are you getting a fireplace?

400
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 3: Well? You know I'm buying one now, all right.

401
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: Former Titan that has a bigger impact on Sunday's game

402
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: or I guess should say the biggest impact Malik willis

403
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: Brandon Nervusen, Andre Dillard. That's a great question. I'll repeat it.

404
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: That former Titan who has the biggest impact on Sunday's

405
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 1: game Malik willis Brandon Harvison, Andre Dillard.

406
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 2: Well, I guess, I mean it depends on what the

407
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 2: Milik plays. Obviously, if Malik's starting quarterback, that's an easy ame.

408
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: What's your gifts?

409
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 2: My guess is he's gonna play.

410
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: I think so too.

411
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, And they're gonna play this game, you know, and

412
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 2: you know all the way until Adam After or Tom

413
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 2: Pellasero or Ian Rappaport tweets something out Saturday night at

414
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 2: eleven o'clock.

415
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 1: Well, and the Thursday tweet from Chefter is already out,

416
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: and he's saying that his sources are saying it's fifty

417
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: to fifty.

418
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 2: Yes, And I think, as you know, eleven pm, those

419
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 2: things seem to roll out eleven pm on Saturday night,

420
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 2: right after midnight Eastern, we'll probably get a more definitive word.

421
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 2: But they're gonna play this game all the way through.

422
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,640
Speaker 2: That's why I answered. You know, I watched the videos

423
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 2: of love and practice yesterday and he did some movement.

424
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 2: You know, it was obviously just individual and and it

425
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 2: wasn't it wasn't team portion of practice. You know, if

426
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 2: he plays, he's obviously gonna make gonna make a big

427
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 2: impact of this game. I just can't see it. I

428
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 2: don't know why you would risk putting love out there

429
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 2: for the you know, for week three, and risk potentially

430
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 2: having something happen to him. It would impact the season.

431
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 2: So I my gut tells me it's going to be Maleik.

432
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 2: And uh so, Malik is gonna have the biggest impact,

433
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 2: whether that's good or bad. I mean, the Titans know him,

434
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 2: he knows the Titans. I think the Titans have a

435
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 2: plan for him, but obviously Matt Lafleur knows what he's

436
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 2: doing as well. He's gonna have a plan to take

437
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 2: advantage of Malik's strengths, and they did that very well

438
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 2: against the Colts.

439
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,439
Speaker 1: All Right, So, Amy, I'm gonna ask you the same question. Okay,

440
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,400
Speaker 1: former Titan that has a bigger impact on Sunday's game,

441
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 1: Malik Willis, Brandon Arvis and Andre Dillard.

442
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 3: Assuming Malik Willis, assuming just answer the question. Well, I

443
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 3: don't want to pick the same thing as Jim again,

444
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna say Brandon Narvison, Okay, because I think.

445
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:44,880
Speaker 1: That now we're assuming he's still the game. We're assuming

446
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: he's still the kicker on Sunday, which if we feel

447
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: like he will be. Although Matt Lafleur did not give

448
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 1: him the greatest vote of confidence.

449
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 3: This is exhausting.

450
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: This is an exhausting game, isn't it wonderful?

451
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 2: Yeah?

452
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 3: But I think that assuming he is the kicker and

453
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 3: he comes into town and play, I think that he

454
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 3: will probably be the person scoring a lot of points

455
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 3: for this team. I think that the Titans defense's whole

456
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 3: plan is to force them to be kicking at field

457
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 3: goals as opposed to scoring touchdowns given the option. So

458
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 3: I mean he'll probably be a big part of that.

459
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: I think it's Narves and too because I think Maleik starts.

460
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: I think the real question is can Jordan Love be

461
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: the backup? Because if Jordan Love is able to be

462
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 1: the backup, then they don't have to elevate Sewn Clifford.

463
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: They could, they would have the ability to elevate another player,

464
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: and the Packers do have more guys banged up at

465
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 1: this point than the Titans. Do you know? They even

466
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: threw in the caveat the source and the Adam Schefter

467
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: piece through in the caveat that they would feel more

468
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: optimistic towards Jordan Love being ready to play against Minnesota

469
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 1: week from Sunday against the Titans.

470
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

471
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: So if it is Malik, Malik has shown they can

472
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: that he can move the football, no problem with that

473
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 1: at all. But they probably do kick at more field goals.

474
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 3: Yep, that is my guess.

475
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: And if that is the case. Nrvisson is six of

476
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 1: eight on field goals at this point. He's missed a

477
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: forty six yarder and a forty five yarder. You know

478
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: that could prove to be a key in this because

479
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: we know what his range is. We know he's talented.

480
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 3: We saw him in the preseason absolutely, and.

481
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,360
Speaker 1: I mean he's a good kicker, but he's also a rookie. Yeah,

482
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: but and so does you know I said bigger impact, Well,

483
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: for him, the bigger impact could be making.

484
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 3: The kicks or missing them or.

485
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: Missing the kicks. And you know this is going to

486
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,719
Speaker 1: draw two the side by side comparison between he and

487
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: Nick Folk. Mmm, yeah, did you you know? So you're

488
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,479
Speaker 1: gonna I mean, all of that's going to come up

489
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,120
Speaker 1: because I think this is going to be a game

490
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 1: where you're gonna see some kicks. That's just me.

491
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,719
Speaker 2: Not long after the Titans part of ways with Brayden,

492
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 2: he ended up being the Packers kicker. I've got a

493
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 2: lot of people questioning, well, why would you not stick

494
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 2: with him? You know why? You know he's got He's

495
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 2: a young guy, you can develop shook. Kickers are no

496
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 2: sure thing. We all know that, and this team has had,

497
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 2: you know, after such a great run of having dependable kickers.

498
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 2: That ended a lot of way in a lot of ways.

499
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 2: After Ryan's suck up left his team's been through a

500
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 2: lot of kickers, and so I've certainly thought it was

501
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 2: the right decision to go with Folk for.

502
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: Of a sure thing.

503
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 2: And he's been good and hopefully Norviston has a great career.

504
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 2: I really like him as a nice kid. It's one

505
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: of those guys that would you go out of his

506
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 2: way to say hello to you. But he was twenty

507
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 2: one to twenty eight camp he uh yeah. He hit

508
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 2: the long field goal in the preseason.

509
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: We also missed some made the game winning kicks in

510
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: the Seattle game, tess yep.

511
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 2: So he's uh, he's a tough minded kid. But I

512
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 2: think Folk is what this team needs. Don't need it,

513
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 2: don't need another issue to be raising its nickle point.

514
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 1: It's thirty one of thirty two since he got here. Yeah,

515
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: I mean after kicker Palooza in twoenty nineteen.

516
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,919
Speaker 3: That makes it sound like it was fun. It was

517
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 3: not fun.

518
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: It was kicker palooser.

519
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, kicker hell.

520
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 1: I mean we saw Cairo Santos in Week one and

521
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 1: he has righted his career, yes, but he was four

522
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,880
Speaker 1: of nine when he was here, and he was out

523
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: of football for the rest of twenty nineteen before the

524
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: Bears brought him in in twenty twenty, and he reach,

525
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: I mean, there were some good kickers who were part

526
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: of the roster and got here and just, oh god,

527
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: I mean, Stephen Goskowski's going to call the game on

528
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 1: national radio with Larry kah Here on Sunday. His twenty

529
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: twenty was, you know, kind of all over the road.

530
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 3: It was just seating pads so many Yeah, fully smokes,

531
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 3: I've never seen anything like it. I'm scarved.

532
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: But Kicker Palooza in twenty nineteen was that was crazy, dude.

533
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 3: Kicker Palooza sounds like fun, sounds like there's rides and

534
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 3: rises there were. I mean it was kicker.

535
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: I mean.

536
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 2: An emotional roller coaster.

537
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: Yeah was. I mean the Titans were eight of eighteen

538
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: on field goals. Virtually every high school in Middle Tennessee

539
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: is better than forty four percent on field goals.

540
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 3: I mean it was just it was crazy, right, awful,

541
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 3: is what it was.

542
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: So you got you got a guy who's made thirty

543
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: one out of thirty two.

544
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 3: Go with that guy.

545
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 1: Well, I mean you're talking about analytics, Yeah, I mean

546
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 1: you're yeah, I mean, Nick folks probably not gonna kick

547
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: a sixty yard field goal. And at this point, ye, well,

548
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: I know, but you're That's what I'm saying. You're gonna

549
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: try a lot more forty forty one yarders than you

550
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: are sixty yarders. I think Narvis might have been on

551
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: the practice squad had he I think so. I think so,

552
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: had he cleared waivers. I agree with.

553
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 2: That, And if he ever becomes available at some point again,

554
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised if he's back here.

555
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: Right because you'd like to have a young guy that

556
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: you're working with all the time, who's working with your

557
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 1: snapper and you're holder and your position coach and things

558
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: of that sort. So I don't think that's a bad

559
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 1: strategy at all. Some teams do the free agency thing.

560
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: Some teams draft a guy and then say, you know,

561
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 1: we're going to ride with this guy. Of course, you know,

562
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty nine ers, young kicker who's very talented,

563
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: had an extra point blocked in the Super Bowl that

564
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: tried not to be a key place.

565
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 3: Yep.

566
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: But here's the other thing that's wild with kickers. Kickers

567
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 1: through the first two weeks of NFL play are thirty

568
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: five of thirty nine on kicks of fifty or over. Wow,

569
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 1: they're making ninety percent of kicks fifty or over, and

570
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 1: of the four missus, Justin Tucker has two of them.

571
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 2: That's because he is pretty much autumn for many works. Yes, yeah,

572
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 2: that's the quad of stat.

573
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: I mean they're talking about him very legitimately as a

574
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: potential Hall of Famer at some point.

575
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

576
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,480
Speaker 1: So, how ironic is that.

577
00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it with a twinkling I'm not saying.

578
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: It with a twinkle in mind. I'm just saying that

579
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: is really surprising.

580
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 3: It is very surprising.

581
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 2: But yeah, these guys are putting in They're putting them

582
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 2: in the net. They're putting them in the net from

583
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 2: fifty five yards.

584
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: Jim, you remember if a guy was making sixty seven

585
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: to seventy five percent of forty yards, yes, he was

586
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: considered good. And now, I mean they send those guys

587
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,479
Speaker 1: out there, they expect him to make seventy five, eighty percent,

588
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: in this case, ninety percent of fifty plus, just like

589
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: you and I can remember when a forty two yard

590
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: punt was good. And the Titans have a guy right

591
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: now whose career average is fifty three plus.

592
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 3: But think about how different the training for kickers is now,

593
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 3: I mean kids start when they're eight in like serious

594
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 3: regimented kicking program.

595
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: I think the biggest difference is soccer. And I think

596
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: soccer the prevalence of the training and then how many

597
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: kids are involved in soccer. I think has you know,

598
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: as soccer has boomed in this country, that's where it's

599
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: really come from.

600
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 3: But I mean, like the Titans punter has been practicing

601
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 3: punting his whole life, and some of that is family.

602
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: And he's one of only like five guys who punt

603
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: in the NFL who are not from Australia. Yeah that's yeah,

604
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: that's the other part of this that's so int I

605
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 1: mean the Bears punter in Week one was a twenty

606
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: seven year old rookie from Australia. Yep.

607
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 3: Yeah. And there's more and more coming all the time.

00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 3: That's pretty good.

628
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: Jack kind of like doing it like the Shoney's Big Boy.

629
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 2: I can't do it, big boy. Yeah, well I can't

630
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 2: do I can't do it flat against the box. They

631
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:25,959
Speaker 2: got plates in my wrists. I've got to do it.

632
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 2: This is my technique. Here, nobody take a.

633
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: Picture of that. Whoever plays quarterback for the Packers on

634
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: Sunday at Nissan Stadium, they will be handing the ball

635
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: to Josh Jacobs. Jacobs carried thirty two times for one

636
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty one yards and the Packers went over

637
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: Indianapolis last weekend. They would love for him to get

638
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: thirty plus touches again this week. Key number one pretty obvious,

639
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,880
Speaker 1: slow down, Josh Jacobs. Key number two pretty straightforward as well.

640
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: Take care of the ball. Titans are minus four in

641
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: turnover ratio. Packers are plus four in the same department.

642
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: Titans need to flip that script and win the turnover battle.

643
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: The third key is also about the Tennessee offense. They

644
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 1: must stay on the field. In their first two games,

645
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 1: far too many three and outs. Titans offense needs to

646
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: move the chains, extend drives, slip the field, and most

647
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: obviously score points. Less three and outs are a key.

648
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,240
Speaker 3: That was definitely under a minute. Good job, Mike Keith,
