1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: I told you it's gonna be a big win, but

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: I didn't see thirty eight six coming. You know, look

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: like all the rookies, they all splashed in some very

4
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: cool way that think. You know, we all look for

5
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: up in is an open day at Patrick Pin had

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 1: that great script which reminded me of you know, old

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: ones from Edgar Reeve does a second of the ball,

8
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: but he says, I've been you know, I've practiced against

9
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: Hellodi Nada. You know I don't have I can handle this,

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: and so the cow, you know, it goes one way,

11
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: just like Lamar, and the next thing you know, Jason

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: is on the ground. Welcome into the lounge. I told

13
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: you it's gonna be a big win, but I didn't

14
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: see thirty eight six coming. I'll a minute. I didn't

15
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: think it was gonna be that big. I know you didn't.

16
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 1: You say during the pregame show, which this is a

17
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: little plug you should always watch Ravens pregame live before

18
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: every home game, starting at noon or an hour before

19
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: the game whenever that is anyway, But then you say

20
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,639
Speaker 1: low scoring. Your thought was low scoring. Yeah, my predictions

21
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: are pretty bad, I think, I said, Ravens seventeen on

22
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: a late Justin Tucker field goal. And then and we

23
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: also got into a conversation on pregame Live about who

24
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,479
Speaker 1: was gonna play an inside linebacker, and I said, ah,

25
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: you know, Millie Harrison. He you know, he might get

26
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: his start mid season. You know he might start games

27
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: Week one, starter right there in the middle rate when

28
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: first snap. Yeah, yeah, Well the rookie thing, and uh

29
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: and the rookie I think everyone was off on the

30
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: expectation for rookies this year, Like how many times do

31
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: we say, Man, it's gonna be tough for rookies to

32
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: make a contribution this year. Well, we weren't the only ones.

33
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: It's such us Laias Campbell said that. Everybody we had

34
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: on the pod to that r G three said that everybody.

35
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, what five five rookies

36
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: right off the jump to play really significant roles. J

37
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: K Dobbins pair of touchdowns, Patrick Queen's sack and a

38
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: forced fumble, Willie Harrison's starter, Tyree Phillips starter, James Prochet

39
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: starting punt returner Devon DuVernay catches a pass and Project

40
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: Washington gets in the rotation on the defensive line. So

41
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: the kick returner, yeah, dun kick returner. So hello rookies

42
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: right from the jump, and uh, they were the only

43
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: ones who looked good. I mean pretty much everybody uh

44
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: passed the test in week one with the thirty eight

45
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: six victory, right, I mean really dominated that game all

46
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: of a sudden, Like it was so weird. A lot

47
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: of people have asked, like, was it weird being at

48
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: the game, um, and it was. It was weird not

49
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: having fans there. It was extremely weird. Yeah, And the

50
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: game started and it kind of felt like like you

51
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: know when there's a training camp practice there and a

52
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: practice starts and you're kind of half paying attention and

53
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: you're like, is this That's kind of how it felt.

54
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: It's like, all a sudden, it's Ted Upton and I'm like,

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 1: is this does this count? Is this the real deal?

56
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 1: Like is these actual points? And uh, it took a

57
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 1: little while to get used to it. But I think

58
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: on the field, like everything on the field was looked

59
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: better than I than I expected for Week one, Um,

60
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: but the surroundings obviously it was odd. Yeah, I mean

61
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: it felt like you're watching a J V football game,

62
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of the atmosphere, just this empty thing.

63
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: You could. You know. I'm I was sitting up in

64
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: the like club level, right, so I'm one step down

65
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: from the upper deck, and I can hear like coaches

66
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: on the sideline seventy five yards away, like shouting to

67
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: individual players and clapping after big good plays, and like

68
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: you can hear everything. It's really strange. I will say this, Okay,

69
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: there's some pluses and minuses this whole situation. Minus no

70
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: first quarter naches. Well, you know that's that's my favorite

71
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: party game day, right, That's the reason why you go

72
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: to so that was that was a hit. However, that's

73
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: also a reason that my my dry cleaning bill is

74
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: so high because I just get not your cheese all

75
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: over my nice clothes. So that's the downstad the first

76
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: quarter notes. Uh. Plus side is I'm sitting there and

77
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: I'm not in the press box with the rest of

78
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: the media anymore. You know, they keep us separated. Now,

79
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: I'm just sitting out there on a balcony outside a

80
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: club or outside of suite, and I can cheer and

81
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: do whatever I wanted. I could say whatever I want

82
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: out there. You should have seen me. It was amazing,

83
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: Like you know, I'm like, oh, you gotta make that

84
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: play or like, you know, they scored touch and I'm

85
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: just like, ahh yeah, you know there's no hold back anymore.

86
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: It's amazing. Well, yeah, fans for the next game at home,

87
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: listen closely. You're probably here make yelling. I seriously, I

88
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: seriously was just watching back a play on NFL game

89
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: rewind or whatever game pass and I thought I could

90
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: hear myself. Yeah, it is. It is. Um, it is

91
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: pretty wild to see. I mean, the games are obviously

92
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 1: watched by a lot of people, um, but every week,

93
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: you know, there's there's seventy tho people in stadium, and

94
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: to see it empty and to see the game be

95
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: played in front of I don't know how many people

96
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: who are actually in the stadium, a couple hundred, um

97
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: in terms of you know, employees and everybody, it is.

98
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: It is a wild phenomenon. I hope we get fans

99
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: at some point. We'll see um. But yeah, I mean

100
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: from a football standpoint, looks good. And so to break

Speaker 1: I feel like you learn a lot in week one,

121
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: Like you learn more in week one than you do

122
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: probably from any other games during the season. Am I

123
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: am I writer? Am I just talking out of my

124
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: butt here? Ken? No, you're absolutely right, and you learned

125
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: from the coordinators. Get new stuff in week one. That's

126
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: always fun to unveil. Yea birthday presents. Yeah, exactly, exactly,

127
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: especially for a guy like you. So I guess big picture, Um,

128
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: you know from your notes, I thought one of the

129
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: more interesting things was you were kind of like surprised

130
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: that the Ravens were able to win by as big

131
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: a margin thirty eight to six as they did. Why

132
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: is that? Well, they really lost the battle on either

133
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: side out of the line of scrimmage, defensively and offensively.

134
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: The pass rush, I think is apparent to everyone. The

135
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: grounds had success, but particular early on running the football

136
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: on the base defense, which is really bad. Um, So

137
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: they lost both sides there on in terms of defending,

138
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: but in terms of the offense. Lamar Jackson bailed him out,

139
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: but he was constantly under pressure. He had ample time

140
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: and space. It was a metric of my own. Basically

141
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: needs a three second pocket and ability to step into

142
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: a throw. He only had that four out of twenty

143
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: seven times, and an average might be around in the league.

144
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 1: Quarterbacks should pick the opponent apart when they get ample

145
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: time and space. When they don't get it. It's trouble

146
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: and Lamar despite four it at seven had two ratings.

147
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: So that was really the story of the game for me. Wow,

148
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: that's interesting. So so when you were looking at the

149
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: run defense early on, it was really two runs. You know,

150
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: it's the Chub What Chub twenty two yarder and Kareem

151
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: Hunt nine yarder? I think I might have that backwards.

152
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: What did you see on those plays? What what was

153
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: the trouble and run defending early on? Okay, so that

154
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: twenty nine yard round and just from from my visual memory,

155
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: Campbell was late getting on the field and didn't even

156
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: get all the way into his three point stance. But

157
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: the play there was one where they were effectively using

158
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: Campbell to set the edge, which made it a little worse.

159
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: Harrison came in off that edge as well and got

160
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: deep into the place. So between the two of them,

161
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: that obviously created a large gap that I think it was.

162
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: I think that was Chubb ring through if I met

163
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: m And then on the second one, it looked like,

164
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: I mean sometimes obviously a lot of times you have

165
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: to tip your hat, and it looked like on the

166
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: second long one that the Browns was blocked it up

167
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 1: really well. I mean, they have a good offensive line.

168
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: They invested in it heavily this offseason. Got Jack Conklin

169
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 1: at right tackle, drafted high first round pick, and Jadrick

170
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: Will's at left tackle. So it looked to me like

171
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 1: they just blocked that up. Yeah, that's exactly right. I mean,

172
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,319
Speaker 1: and you gotta give credit to the Browns there huge

173
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: on the offensive line. They're very powerful, you know, very much.

174
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: With their two tight endsets are like the Ravens running

175
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: at you. They're kind of facing themselves. And I think

176
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: back to the forty Niners game that was the most

177
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: similar last year in terms of the team that we

178
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: were really mirrored what the Ravens could do and they

179
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: had some success running early else. So, Ken, let's look

180
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: it over to the offensive side of the ball and

181
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: the offensive line there. The offensive line was something that

182
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: was a bit of a mystery going into Week one,

183
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: and I think there were certainly some people who were

184
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: surprised when Tyree Phillips stepped out there and learned that

185
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,559
Speaker 1: starting job rookie transitioning from a tackle in college into

186
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 1: right guard, and then Scura too given his injury. In

187
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: the long road back from that injury. So what were

188
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 1: your impressions of the offensive line overall? And then we

189
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: can talk through some specifics after that, right, I mean

190
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: they had some problems, a lot of that with an

191
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: amount of pressure Jackson was under. You know that the

192
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: offensive line grades are not gonna be too good. The

193
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 1: good news is they weren't kindalized. The bad news is

194
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: they give up a lot of pressures during the game.

195
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: They missed some blocks in the run game, they didn't

196
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: have to subside success with double teams. Some of that

197
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: was a function of not really running the twenty nineteen

198
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: scheme as often. So remember a lot of replays, a

199
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: lot of running out of a pistol. Get replays and

200
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 1: ran much less out of the pistol in this game.

201
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: And jacksonally ran the ball a couple of times, but

202
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: even the times he handed off out of that pistol option,

203
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: we're not great in number. So interesting, it was a

204
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: different offense than it was last year. And then when

205
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: you're talking about the specific offensive lineman, who would you

206
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: like to talk about first, Well, I want to come

207
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: back to your your point there about it being a

208
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 1: different offense, because I think that's interesting, And uh, we'll

209
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 1: ask you to look into your crystal ball a little

210
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,959
Speaker 1: bit on that one. But um, that talks Harry Phillips

211
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: like to me, to me, Bryan, I have talked about

212
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: this with him before. He reminds me of Colletchio Samil

213
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: to some degree in size converted tackle in college. Uh,

214
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: played really well as a rookie. Uh in that Super

215
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: Bowl run at guard? Do you see any of that

216
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: entire And just what were your in process of him?

217
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: Was you like, where can you improve after his first start? Okay, well,

218
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: there's I think there's a ton to build on here

219
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 1: and and hardball was good about setting the level. I

220
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: grated him out as a C for this game. Uh.

221
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: He gave up two and a half pressures, half of

222
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: penetration which is a loss on a run play, and

223
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,199
Speaker 1: a third or quarterback hit. And I apportioning him out

224
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: in that way grades out of actually at the bottom

225
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: of the sea range. But I thought it was really positive.

226
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: Is there a lot of mobility questions about him coming

227
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 1: into this year moving from tackle to guard? As he

228
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: said at three blocks on level two out of four

229
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: and seven out of seven on his poles. So that

230
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: tells me right there that he's probably gonna be fine

231
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: at least to start off with on the mobility issues.

232
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: And uh, I was very positive about that big strong guy.

233
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 1: I think he will get more opportunity as he moves

234
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: forward to use his length. He's got arms that are

235
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 1: over thirty inches. Those are ideal for going to the

236
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 1: arm pits that defensive tackle and controlling the pivot on

237
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: right handed run place where the ravens are pulling a

238
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 1: yard from right to left and he has to open

239
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 1: the pivot on those things. So I'm very optimistic about

240
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: what Tyree brings. And let's talk about another rookie. Obviously,

241
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: Patrick Queen got a lot of headlines. You know, I

242
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: have to get a sack and a forced fumble in

243
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 1: your first game, end lead the team and tackles. What

244
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: did you see when you kind of dove into the

245
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: tape on on Patrick? You know, like all the rookies,

246
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 1: they all splashed in some very cool way that I think,

247
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: you know, we all look for opting as an opening day.

248
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: And Patrick Queen had that great script which reminded me

249
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: of you know, old ones from Ed Reid as a

250
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 1: second of the ball guy, and he had that sack

251
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: where we could talk about that a little more if

252
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 1: you want to. But it was a beautiful run off

253
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: the butt of Wolf and Wolf had a great contributing

254
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,719
Speaker 1: um component to that. But you know, other than that,

255
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: he had some problems with the run. He got caught

256
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: up in the wash. The Browns are very effective at

257
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: getting a guard to level two to get a hat

258
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: on him if you look at his tackles and nunber

259
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: winside of three yards of the line of scrimmage. Um,

260
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 1: we talked about making mistakes at a hundred miles an

261
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: hour for Queen, maybe it's a case where he needs

262
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: to be more of a gap gamble and and just

263
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 1: take chances and get the backfield. Um that that works

264
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: for some people and a rookie. Ken's getting the call

265
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: right now saying quick giving away of film secrets. That's

266
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: the bat Martindale on the line. Hey, so Ken, you

267
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: said just go back to the offense, right. I keep

268
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 1: bouncing back and forth between the two sides of the

269
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: ball here. But you made the point that you felt

270
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: like it looked like a different offense, which is fascinating. Uh.

271
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: Do you feel like that's here to stay? Do you

272
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: feel like that was a game plan thing? I know

273
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: that you're not obviously sitting in there with Greg Roman

274
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: as he's dialing up or as he's building out offensive

275
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: game plans each week. But based on what the personnel

276
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: is on this team, Uh, what is your expectation of

277
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: that regard? Yeah, I think they'll be going back to

278
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: much more of last year's offense in the coming games.

279
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 1: I think this was an opportunity to take advantage of

280
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: where the Browns were weakest, which is in the secondary.

281
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 1: You know, they're very banged definitely loss of Grant Delphi

282
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: and others, and you Sada was back there playing a spot.

283
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: It's really a case of I think they wanted to

284
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: go with the past. They knew that was the way

285
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 1: to beat the Browns and it was working, so they

286
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,719
Speaker 1: didn't didn't really chance, they didn't really change. They ended

287
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: up with a fair number of run plays, but that's

288
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: not really an accurate reflection of how they were running

289
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 1: their offense and when they did a lot of them

290
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: running with d J. Fluker in there in the second half,

291
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: much more limited offense in terms of what they had

292
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: available to Now, the question is whether you know they're

293
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: going to be able to run the fall effectively against

294
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: some of these better teams that they're gonna face even

295
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: the next two weeks, you know, the Texans J. J.

296
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: Watt coming to town or they're going out there, but

297
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: then Kansas City obviously. So do you think that the Ravens,

298
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: given you know, you had some lower grades along the

299
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 1: interior offensive line, are you concerned about their ability to

300
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: run and beat those teams or what? I'm gonna be

301
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: tremendously concerned if Frannie Stanley can't play for starters, so

302
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: I know he didn't practice today, and and that's the

303
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 1: first concern in terms of UH them being able to

304
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: to beat high power defensive lines. I mean, I think

305
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: the Ravens are special in that way in their ability

306
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 1: to have Lenard Jackson freeze that edge defender. So we

307
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: saw in San Francisco they were still effective last year

308
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: doing that UH and neutralizing a very good for man one.

309
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: I think they can. I think they can attack these groups.

310
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: And the Texans have problems in the second therey as well,

311
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: so we may see another passing day from Lamar, which

312
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: would be just found. So I think we had a

313
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: feeling going into the season that at some point this

314
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: year J. K. Dobbins could emerge as the best guy

315
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: in the backfield. I didn't expect that to be weak

316
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: one like his two touchdown performance. It did surprise me

317
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: because I just felt like he might have more of

318
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: a limited role early in the season and to ease

319
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: him in, and then in the second half of the

320
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: year he's got kind of fresh legs and unleash then

321
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: he's unleashed secrets out. So how do you see the well,

322
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: First of all, what do you think of his performance?

323
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: And then what do you think of the running back

324
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: rotation moving forward from here? Happy with the performance obviously,

325
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot to like about it, and

326
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: it wasn't the ideal set of circumstances for him in

327
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: terms of of having great double teams set up and

328
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 1: obviously running out of the pistol. But it was a

329
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: a good, solid performance, good field vision. I like that

330
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: about it um in terms of how I would see

331
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: it progressing. I'm looking over your shoulder here, you've got

332
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 1: the Sequer Bowl thirty five thing. That's reminding me how

333
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: Jamal Lewis was kind of woven into the fabric as

334
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: that season went on. But he didn't start week when

335
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: us to start at Priestones did and then he played

336
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 1: more and more and more as the season went on.

337
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: Dobbn's I think is the obvious airparents the number one

338
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: back on this team. And the other thing is that

339
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: the team really needs to consider whether or not they

340
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: can afford to keep mark Ingram next year. So it's

341
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: behoos them to figure that out as quickly as possible

342
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 1: as the team goes on. I hate to be coldhearted

343
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: about this. Obviously Ingram is a great leader, a great

344
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: guy to have around the clubhouse. But they need to

345
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: shift dollars to some of the offensive playmakers as well

346
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: as Humphrey, and they're gonna need to figure out how

347
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: to do that. Two other new guys plays, Cambell and

348
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: Derek Off on the defensive line. What do you see

349
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: from them? Well, Clary's Campbell will start with, was the

350
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 1: most dominant player on the field, and there he had

351
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: three passes defense in the game. I can't even tell

352
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: you how rare that is for a linebacker except through

353
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: game twelve of two thousand thirteen, which is just a

354
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: sheet I had already made up for a previous story.

355
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: Was that's a period of more than fifteen years and

356
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: the Rabians only had a Dailis Thomas do it once

357
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: in two thousand one, and Heloni Nada do it in

358
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 1: his two thousand eight game against the Texans. We remember

359
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: a very acrobatic interception from that game, but those are

360
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: the only two linemen who did it during that entire period.

361
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: So it's incredibly rare for a Lignement to do it,

362
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: and you just you just see him do it on

363
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: consecutive plays, the second being the reception very cool. Drewl

364
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 1: holding penalty later in that game. That was kind of cool,

365
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: not to ferguson because he had a sack washed out,

366
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 1: but you know, it was it was. It was a

367
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,959
Speaker 1: great game for players. And then Derek Wolf had an

368
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: had a big hand in the sack. He played the

369
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: most snaps first of all, but if hand in the

370
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: sack sacked by Queen where he kind of drew the

371
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: attention of the left guard Batonia, so Betonio he didn't

372
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: have to put his shoulder into And Wolf is really

373
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 1: known as an under guy on stunts, meaning he's the

374
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: guy who crashes between the two players gets two forty

375
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: five gree angle blocks, creates and an opportunity for both

376
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: himself and the guy following as we're end to to

377
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 1: do that one. Queen followed as we were in, but

378
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: he didn't even really have his shoulder in Batonia. He

379
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 1: just had kind of had his attention with a hand

380
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: on him, and Beatonio never came back in time for Queen,

381
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: and Trader was way too slow getting across and Queen

382
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 1: with his quickness gutting quickly for the sax. So that

383
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,439
Speaker 1: was great to see. You saw at the end of

384
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,239
Speaker 1: that play if you look at the video, Wolf has

385
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: his fist in the air like that he understood exactly

386
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 1: what his contribution was on the play. Well that, I mean,

387
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: that was kind of his m O. I think that

388
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 1: when he first signed, he he talked about how I V. Miller,

389
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: talked about how he created a ton of opportunities for him,

390
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 1: and I think Wolfs role and what he's known for

391
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: Denver obviously was doing all the dirty work and creating

392
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 1: opportunities for other guys, And clearly that's you know, that's

393
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: how we're starting. One more guy that I've got that

394
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: I want to get your perspective on this is Deshaan Elliott.

395
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 1: You know, first start a lot of expectations stepping in

396
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 1: for for old Thomas in the back end of the defense.

397
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: How did how the Joker look? You know, because we

398
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: didn't see him, I'm gonna say you look fantastic. Um.

399
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: He also elevent hitter in this game. But let's go

400
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: back to the coverage for a second, because you know,

401
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: bigger Mayfield, un like Lamour, had percent ample time and

402
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: space and they the Browns only through for four point

403
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 1: one yards per pass. That tells me the second there

404
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: he is doing their job. If you look at the

405
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: maps on next Gen, you'll see the deep middle in

406
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 1: particular is where they did not test. And before this game,

407
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: I really thought that's where the Browns would go because

408
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 1: they've got tight ends, they like play action, and beyond that,

409
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: Elliott's untested and you know they there there. That's gonna

410
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: be a place where you're gonna try and get after

411
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: the Ravens. Not didn't happen, and you know, I think

412
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: you know the fact that you didn't see him. I

413
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: go back to the Earl Thomas quote maybe appropriate like

414
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: from last year that he says, I'm free safety if

415
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 1: you don't see me, that's a good thing. Interesting. Interesting,

416
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 1: And then you had in your notes here that there's

417
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: a good story behind the fake point and the Ravens

418
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 1: blown that up. Yeah, very very cool. It was a

419
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: it was a first of all, a terrible decision, but

420
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 1: but the fact that they lean and four identified it

421
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: pre snap is very visible. Had a great camera angle.

422
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 1: I don't want to harp up this steel on, but

423
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: the camera angles bother me because they're not good for

424
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 1: analysis to have that backwards behind the huddle camera because

425
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: I can't chart the receivers and I can't really you know,

426
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,719
Speaker 1: the formation. But but anyway, for this play, it was fantastic.

427
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: So they're looking from behind Gillen's back, and normally plutters

428
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 1: come into the game, they tap tap left right to

429
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: make sure that their playing foot is in a good spot.

430
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: They take two steps forward, they simulate the funny motion

431
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 1: and they move back. In fifty years of watching football,

432
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: that's the way it's pretty much always done. I did

433
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: not see Gillen do that on this particular snap, and

434
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he's back there. He's rocking kind

435
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: of back and forth. Levine went ballistic. I mean he

436
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 1: basically like, you moved here, you move here. He basically

437
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: was was resetting the gap control so that if the

438
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: snap was to the up back, it wouldn't have been

439
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 1: a thing, but he sniffed out the fake and then

440
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: as the snap was made, and really even before snap

441
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: was way wide, but before the snap, you'll see Fort

442
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: and Levine moving off to the punter's right anticipating that

443
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: the run was going up, so they had it sniffed

444
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 1: out from the start. Levine just amazes me continually in

445
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 1: terms of being like a twenty year veteran sergeant, being

446
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: in the battlefield and surveying the problems, you know, keeping

447
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: his constricts alive. These other rookies were playing on special teams.

448
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: It's just he's a fascinating player to watch. That's interesting.

449
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: That's very cool. Yeah cool, Well, Ken, appreciate it, you

450
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: know not sometimes we all are feeling great after the

451
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: thirty eight six and we gotta bring you in here

452
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: to you know, make sure we're not gulping too much

453
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: purple kool aid. Bring us down to earth a little

454
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: bit to be appreciated. Kids like kids, got like the

455
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: coach mentality, you know, always looking for ways to improve.

456
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: There you go. I like it. Thanks for having you guys,

457
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: Thank you alright. We're really good stuff from Ken. As

460
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: And now another guy, another savvy veteran. I'll say my guy,

461
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: Johnny I John Eisenberg, a k a. Johnny Eyes. Uh,

462
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: and he's here to talk about the season two launch

463
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 1: of his podcast What Happened to That Guy? So, John,

464
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: give us, give us the tease? Well season one last

465
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 1: year at eight episodes, I it's been a lot of

466
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: time figuring out which former Ravens to dig into their

467
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: lives after football and what are they doing? Are they happy?

468
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,959
Speaker 1: Are they sad? How do they look back on it?

469
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,959
Speaker 1: So that was a lot of fun. So why not

470
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,479
Speaker 1: let's do it again season two? So here we go.

471
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 1: I started with Jason Brown this week, and I'm knee

472
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 1: deep and finding other subjects and guys to uh. No

473
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: spoiler alerts necessarily unless you really beg me, but you

474
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: know they'll they'll be a full season of guys again

484
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: check that out. Um. So, in terms of Jason Brown, uh, John,

485
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: he's got one of the most fascinating stories I think

486
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: of any former player. Give us a little taste of

487
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: what he's up to now in the transition that he

488
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,479
Speaker 1: made at the end of his career. It's just an

489
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 1: amazing story. When it really is my bad, as I

490
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: said on the podcast, my bad that I didn't do

491
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 1: him in season one because it is, uh it is.

492
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: I'll put it this way. I think he's the only

493
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 1: former raven who's been on like the Network News and uh,

494
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,959
Speaker 1: you know, CBS and the Good Morning America. Yeah, I mean,

495
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: they're all over it because it's such an amazing story.

496
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 1: He he played for the Ravens and then he went

497
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 1: to the Rams, uh and signed a huge contract with

498
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: the Rams. He was playing for them, had to be

499
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 1: the highest paid center in football at the time, and

500
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 1: then he finally got cut and he was gonna he

501
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: could still play. He was twenty nine. The Ravens wanted

502
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: him back, the Carolina Panthers wanted him back, the forty

503
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: Niners wanted him back. But he's extremely religious about guy

504
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: and he had made the decision that he's gonna walk

505
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: away from football to become a farmer. So and he

506
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: had no background on this. It's just like, I'm going

507
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: to be a farmer. And so he bought a thousand

508
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: acres and he's been doing it ever since the seven

509
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: years ago. And he what's the real kicker is he

510
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 1: gives away all the food. He gives away to food pantries.

511
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 1: He gives it away. The church is just and it's

512
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,360
Speaker 1: over a million pounds of food at this point. So

513
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: just interest an incredible story. And it's not like there's

514
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: this big operation down there. Whether he's you know, pointing,

515
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: he's the guy. He's doing the farming. So, uh, just

516
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 1: a fantastic story and he tells her really well, yeah,

517
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: it's really really good episode. I highly encourage everybody listened

518
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: to it. I think my favorite line was when he

519
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: was telling the story about how some cow was kind

520
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: of getting away from him or he had to get

521
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: the cow in somewhere, and he was like, you know what,

522
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: I'm a former offensive lineman. I should be able to

523
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 1: stop a dang cow. Tell finish the story here, John. Yeah,

524
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: he's trying to get him back in a pen or

525
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: and they were getting out of the pen and he

526
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: wanted to corral it and put it back in the pen,

527
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: this cow. And so he says, you know, I practice

528
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: against Hellodi Nada. You know, I don't have I can

529
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: handle this. And he tells the story really well. How

530
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: the cow, you know, goes one way, just like lamar,

531
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: you know, faces one way, goes the other way. And

532
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 1: the next thing you know, Jason is on the ground

533
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: and the cows past him. And so I said to him,

534
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 1: somebody needs to sign that cow, and he goes, the

535
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: cow's good man, the cow. The cow's athletic. So that's

536
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 1: still the only time anyone has said that to me

537
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: in an interview, that cows are athletic. Well, give us

538
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 1: a taste of a couple other guests, all right, so

539
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: they everybody should go back and listen to Jason Brown.

540
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: But who do you got coming down the place? Uh, well,

541
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: I've got one that I know that fans are gonna

542
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: onna to hear is Kelly Greg. Oh, Buddy Lee, Buddy

543
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: Lee is in He's he will be coming back. And

544
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: had a hilarious interview with him. When I spoke to him,

545
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 1: he was it was raining. He's back living in Oklahoma

546
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: and he's on the radio. If he can believe it,

547
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 1: he's a radio guy Oklahoma and so and he's got

548
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: this farm that he goes and hangs out at out

549
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere, and it's just hilarious. I mean,

550
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: Kelly Greg is a very funny guy. And so when

551
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: I spoke to him, he was just riding out a

552
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: big thunderstorm in Oklahoma and just making all these comments.

553
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: So he's he's really good. I did, Uh, let's see.

554
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: Matt Stover is another one. I did that. Every everybody

555
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: knows him. But I just thought, what an interesting guy

556
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 1: to talk to. And he had a lot to say

557
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 1: about money. We got into this financial conversation about players

558
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: and he told me some stuff I couldn't believe about

559
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: former players and how many of them sort of don't

560
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 1: have their finances figured out, and so it was really interesting.

561
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 1: So that that's a little taste and there there there's

562
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 1: more common. They'll be eight all told, right, And also

563
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: for fans they're listening. If you didn't listen to season one,

564
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: it's not like it's outdated, so fans can go back

565
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: and listen. You have some great guests. Uh as season one,

566
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: you talked to Kyle Bowler, you talked Matt Burkey, talked

567
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: to Chris carr Um. It was just it was excellent.

568
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: It's great work, John, and it's all evergreen stuff. So

569
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: if fans haven't listened, I would encourage you to go back,

570

00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: what move are they making? Do you think? Here? Garrett,

614
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: we got to see another Marcus Peters like trade. I

615
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: would say, if I had to pick one spot, ah,

616
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess the offensive line somewhere along there.

617
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, nope, nope, nope, you're wrong.

618
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: Pass rush, pass rush, Yeah. I think I think if

619
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: they're going to sign somebody, it's gonna be around that

620
00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: week five, this week, four weeks weeks six, somewhere in there,

621
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a pass Rusher from some team

622
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: that's not doing all that well or is in a

623
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: tough salary cap spot, and the Ravens just say, you

624
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: know what, we need a little more juice coming off

625
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: the edge. I mean, all the reports say they're interested

626
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: in Jadeveon Clowney, so I think they're the desire is there?

627
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: The other spot I would point to in terms of

628
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: desire is obviously they worked out Dez Bryant at wide receiver,

629
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: and there's been reports, you know, of them being sniffing

630
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: around the wide receiver market, so that could be the other.

631
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't see that one. I don't see why I don't.

632
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: I think that's less likely. I'm put I would put

633
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: my money on pass Rusher. Yeah, I think I would agree.

634
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: Pass rush is probably at the top of that list.

635
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 1: You know, offensive line. I guess it just depends. You know, Stanley,

636
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: he's got the ankle, not expected to be serious. Um,

637
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 1: do they get banged up at all? There not a

638
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: ton of depth if you were to have an injury there, um,

639
00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: so I would agree with you on pass rush. So anyway, UM,

640
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: I appreciate I appreciate the email from Martin. Whoa, whoa, whoa,

641
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 1: Martin also had there it was more, there's more to

642
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 1: the question. He said, also want to know in fantasy baby,

643
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: are you want to want to know? Of course I

644
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: want to know. Here's the thing. Everybody was ragging on

645
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: me in the league though they said they were gonna

646
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna knark on me to you, um that I

647
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: drafted a bunch of an f C North players that

648
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: were not Ravens. Classic. You probably drafted, banned you draft No.

649
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: I drew the line there. I have a terrible quarterback situation.

650
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 1: I have Matthew Stafford is my starter, and Ben was

651
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 1: just sitting there on waivers and I was like, I

652
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 1: just I'm not doing it. I'm not drafting him. I'm
