29
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 4: all right, so I'll say this, uh, Ephrom I. So,

30
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 4: first of all, I know that the odd couple is

31
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 4: we gotta yell, we gotta scream, we gotta disagree all that,

32
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 4: But there was a serious topic that Manzi just mentioned

33
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 4: in her update to start the show.

34
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: Uh.

35
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 5: And frankly, I'll be transparent.

36
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,279
Speaker 4: I don't know if you knew all of it because

37
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 4: you were driving in it broke probably within the last

38
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 4: half an hour. But as you heard Rashaun Slater tackle

39
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 4: Los Angeles Chargers, I think there are a lot of

40
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:13,519
Speaker 4: people's dark horse here. Early in you know camp in everything,

41
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 4: he is out for the year, Torn Pateeller Tendon was

42
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 4: carted off today. You know, listen, we like to start

43
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 4: with the more upbeat, fun things. But one, this is

44
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 4: certainly the most newsworthy thing of the day. Two, you know,

45
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 4: you are probably the best person to speak to about

46
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,839
Speaker 4: this here at Fox Sports Radio so we can get

47
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 4: into the impact of the Los Angeles Chargers, et cetera.

48
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 4: But thirteen year NFL Vets Super Bowl champion played offensive

49
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 4: tackle in the NFL. Just your first reaction to hearing

50
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 4: that news which just broke here within last night.

51
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,119
Speaker 3: Literally during the update, I looked at you like, oh

52
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 3: my god, it is number one.

53
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 5: It's awful.

54
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 3: Of course I feel I feel extremely sorrowful for this

55
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 3: young man who is one of the bright stars on

56
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 3: the offensive line in the NFL. It every year we

57
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 3: have these type of injuries to teams in training camp.

58
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 3: It just lets you know how how aggressive I'll say,

59
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 3: football is, whether it be in practice or in the game.

60
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 3: And so when you have guys who don't feel like

61
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 3: they're being compensated the right way, they hold out or

62
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: hold in. Now because of the fine system has changed,

63
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: you start to understand why. So less than a week ago,

64
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 3: this young man signed a four year extension four one

65
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 3: hundred and fourteen million dollars and ninety two million guaranteed.

66
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: If he had not signed that contract seven days or

67
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 3: so ago, the numbers would.

68
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 5: Be considerably different.

69
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 3: After sitting out this whole year, and I just want

70
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 3: to say it like that to keep it in context

71
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 3: for our wonderful listeners who join us every day. This

72
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 3: is it's a business.

73
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 5: Now.

74
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 3: Most of our listeners are fans and sports and nay,

75
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 3: they want guys to show up and be there for

76
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 3: their teams. But it's a just a job. And if

77
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 3: you're being underpaid at your job and you're excelling at

78
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 3: your job, then you feel a certain type of way.

79
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 3: I understand what Michael Parsons is going through. I understand

80
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 3: what Trey Henderson is going through. I understand what Terry

81
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 3: McLaurin is going through because they know that next day

82
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 3: at practice tomorrow, yep, their season could be over. And

83
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 3: now negotiations take on a whole nother dimension.

84
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 5: And so.

85
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: As for the Chargers, we are a lot of high hopes.

86
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 3: Second year under hardball, running game, hard nose, justin Herbert

87
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 3: really stepping into his own and really for the first

88
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 3: time in his career, having a real coach last year

89
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 3: with Jim and so now seeing this news, it's this

90
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 3: is one thing I can tell you for sure, playing

91
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 3: left tackle for many, many years in the NFL, most

92
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 3: teams don't have to.

93
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 5: Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure sure.

94
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:38,239
Speaker 3: Right, So most teams don't have too high level left tackles.

95
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 3: Now you may have a swing guy who can come

96
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 3: in and do some stuff spot duty here and there,

97
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 3: and later in my career I was that guy after

98
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 3: starting for ten years. But it's a huge setback because

99
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 3: that's a huge void in a hole that you can't

100
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: easily feel sure like. It's not like a running back,

101
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 3: we can go get that guy. It's not like a

102
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 3: dB where you can bring someone over are It is

103
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 3: not like a guard where you can hide them in between.

104
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: You know, a sinner and a good tackle, you're out

105
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 3: on an island and you're out on an island on

106
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 3: the blind side. And not having that at the level

107
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 3: they needed to to to make some noise and make

108
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 3: a real push this postseason is as a huge setback

109
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 3: for this team.

110
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 4: Okay, so I got a couple of takeaways, but my

111
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 4: first one for you, and I want to just ask

112
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 4: you this. You know, we obviously we all love football.

113
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 4: We all know kind of the next man up philosophy.

114
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 4: Take us into a training camp though, because to me,

115
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 4: I think it's easy to sit there and say, oh,

116
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 4: next man up, and it's a new opportunity. But the

117
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 4: counter to that is you got a lot of guys

118
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 4: like you said that, you know, Keenan Allen literally just

119
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 4: you know, ended up on it with this organization a

120
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 4: few days ago, thinking that he has a window to

121
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 4: go to a super Bowl, win a super Bowl.

122
00:06:58,680 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 5: You have a bunch of other ves.

123
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 4: That's what is the locker room like after a situation

124
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 4: like this. Understanding from the second you put your pads

125
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 4: on when you're a high school, teenager, middle school, whatever,

126
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 4: that these injuries can happen. But it's also easy to

127
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 4: say next man up. It's another thing when a player

128
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 4: of this significance goes down. And even if you want

129
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 4: to have that next man up theory, you also understand

130
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 4: that with due respect to whoever step in in, they

131
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 4: ain't the guy that you just lost.

132
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 3: I'll put it like this, think about losing your star quarterback.

133
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 3: You're a starting quarterback. Sure, yeah, you two other guys

134
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: on the roster, yep, And they have to step in

135
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 3: and show up and show out.

136
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 5: It's not the same.

137
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 3: Sure, the offense cannot function the same way, and I

138
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 3: believe it's the same way when you replace a left tack,

139
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 3: when you lose a Pro Bowl left tackle, someone of

140
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 3: his caliber, one of the great young stars in this

141
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 3: league at that position. It changes how you now can

142
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 3: approach defenses. You can no longer not worry about what's

143
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: going on. Case in point, Deon Sanders. Sure, Deon Sanders

144
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 3: would be standing over there when the defense was huddled.

145
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 5: Up, and you just didn't throw that side of the field.

146
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: You knew, no matter what was going on, he was fine.

147
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 3: So when you're calling these offensive plays, you know we

148
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 3: can turn the whole protection away.

149
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 6: Right.

150
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 3: He can be on an island, he can shint, he's

151
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 3: okay over there. That's why he gets paid so much. Sure,

152
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 3: so we can do some things and know that he

153
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: can hold up against whatever they're trying to do. Now

154
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 3: that's gone, right, So now you have to reconfigure and

155
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 3: have a different approach in how you're going to attack

156
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 3: defenses because now most likely you're going to have to

157
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 3: have some form of health to help whoever is replacing him.

158
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 3: And that changes the playbook dramatically, and it also changes

159
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 3: This is one thing. The reason quarterbacks love left tackles

160
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 3: is because they don't have to worry about anything. I

161
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 3: got you, We're good, ye, right. I've been there. I've

162
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 3: had tremendous relationships with the quarterbacks I've played with, and

163
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 3: they'll throw a touchdown pass or a big play and

164
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 3: they'll look at me, tap me on nail. We had

165
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 3: a bunch of plays designed for me to be alone.

166
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 3: That's why I call it the island. DB's have an island.

167
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: Left tackles have an island. That island is lonely. And

168
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 3: when you're going against the Jason Taylor's, the Dwight Freenies,

169
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 3: the Charles Haley's, the straight hands, it gets really lonely.

170
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 5: Sure, I spent.

171
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 3: My career being alone on an island and crying the

172
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: night before most games. But it's that trust that the

173
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,319
Speaker 3: offensive coordinator has in you, that those other four guys

174
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 3: on the offensive line has, that the quarterback has to know,

175
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 3: all right, even when we call this play, it's we're

176
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 3: good over here. So now you can focus on other things.

177
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 3: It's gone now. So now the biggest person this is

178
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 3: gonna hurt is justin herb of course. So now he

179
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 3: has to keep an eye on, you know, his blind side,

180
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 3: like he has to check there, which takes you from

181
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 3: your reads downfield.

182
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 5: That's the tough part.

183
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 3: Are you have a back over here chipping which doesn't

184
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 3: allow them to get out? You take away a lot

185
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,439
Speaker 3: of empty sets where backs they're you know, free release

186
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,559
Speaker 3: right away. It changes your dynamic.

187
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 2: And I know.

188
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 3: Everybody upstairs and the coaching staff, especially on offensively, they

189
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 3: they're willing right now because they're trying to figure out, Okay,

190
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 3: how to we plug a hole that you can't plug?

191
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 4: Last question, and I think I already know the answer

192
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 4: based on everything you've said over the last couple of minutes. Chargers,

193
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 4: as I said, were you know Chiefs coming off that

194
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 4: frustrating loss in the Super Bowl?

195
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 5: They get beat up?

196
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 4: Whatever, you know, Buffalo has the point being a lot

197
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 4: of people this was the trendy Could they win the division?

198
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 4: First of all? But also you know, if you want

199
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 4: to call it a dark horse, pseudo dark horse super

200
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 4: Bowl contender, I assume that, based on everything that you've

201
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 4: told me that's essentially off the table, that the expectations

202
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 4: for this team in twenty twenty five should be altered

203
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 4: or changed if you believed it.

204
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 5: Absolutely.

205
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 3: You can't lose a position like left tackle at that

206
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 3: level and be like no, we're good, No, we're good.

207
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 3: Just like you couldn't lose a quarterback sure and be like, no,

208
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 3: we're how many Tom Brady's are on teams right now

209
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: in terms of being back up, coming in, ready to

210
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 3: right carry the tool right away. Those they're outliers out there.

211
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 3: And I'd be interesting to see what the Chargers are

212
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 3: trying to do their own phones with agents, guys who

213
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 3: have played and all pro guys who maybe have retired

214
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 3: or not quite retired.

215
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 5: Jump in real quick.

216
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 4: I think producer Rob told us they're going to try

217
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 4: to move Joe Alt from right tackle to left tackle,

218
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 4: and I would ask you how, because again, right tackle

219
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 4: isn't on an island. Right tackle isn't the blind side.

220
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 4: If that's the move one, you obviously have to find

221
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 4: a right tackle.

222
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 5: Now.

223
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 4: How easy or is it easy even for a first

224
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 4: round pick like Joe Alt to make that conversion? And

225
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 4: let me dumb like dumb it down for us as

226
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 4: much as you can understand, like, how different is the playbook?

227
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 4: How different is this? How different is not just the

228
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 4: responsibility of being on the blind side, being on an island,

229
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 4: but also just I don't even know, just just the

230
00:12:59,120 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 4: playbook whatever.

231
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 3: So the great thing about them, if they do decide

232
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 3: to move their first round pick this year to left tackle,

233
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 3: which he played, which he played in college.

234
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 5: That bowls well for him.

235
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 3: He's a natural left tackle, and so making that transition

236
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 3: when I came into the league. When I got drafted,

237
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 3: I was a left tackle, but we had a perennial

238
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 3: pro bowler, Bob Whitfield, the behemoth from stanfordst at left tackle.

239
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 3: So when I got to training camp, I was fifth

240
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 3: on the depth chart or fourth on the depth chart

241
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: at left tackle. Something happened, somebody got hurt on the

242
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 3: right side. So I moved over and took advantage of

243
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 3: the opportunity and ended up starting my rookie year at

244
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 3: right tackle. Everything was different. Okay, it's like you're right handed.

245
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 3: Start writing with your left hand, right right. It's the

246
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 3: simple things like that, whatever you would do, you knife

247
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 3: and fork, put it in your other hand. Okay, and so,

248
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 3: but this is happening in a matter of seconds, sure

249
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 3: to where your technique is perfect at left tackle our

250
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 3: right tackle, and then you switch over and now you're

251
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: thinking about your technique makes sense, and that split second

252
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 3: of thinking can be detrimental to your offense.

253
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 4: It's an unbelievable situation, as Manzi told you to lead

254
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 4: the show where Shaun Slater left tackle Los Angeles Chargers

255
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 4: out for the season with a torn pateller tender, torn

256
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 4: patella tendon and yeah, and Chargers obviously reeling, as I

257
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 4: from just said, probably on the phones right now, working

258
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 4: really hard to figure out what the next move is

259
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 4: because it is crippling.

260
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,200

275
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 4: about you know, obviously a little bit of a serious

276
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 4: topic here as as as Rashaun Slater is out for

277
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 4: the year, just such a bummer with the Los Angeles Chargers.

278
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 4: Didn't want to switch gears to another team in La

279
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 4: ephrom and that's the Los Angeles Rams. Matthew Stafford is

280
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 4: dealing with an aggravated disc in his back now right now,

281
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 4: Sean McVay saying all the right things back in week one.

282
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 4: We're hoping to be the you know, we're hoping to

283
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 4: have him back for week one. Sean McVay is basically

284
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 4: just downplaying the injury, just saying, you know, it's you know,

285
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 4: thankfully that you know we have time and whatever. Blah

286
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 4: blah blah. The only reason I really want to bring

287
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 4: this up is because listen, I'm not a doctor. We'll

288
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 4: get that, We'll get that caveat out of the way.

289
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford's thirty seven years old. He has taken a

290
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 4: lot of hits in his career, courtesy of the Detroit Lions,

291
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 4: most most notably, I would just ask, like, I think

292
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 4: it's easy for a coach to.

293
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 5: Say, ah, yeah, we know, we got a couple weeks

294
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 5: to week one, he'll be good to go. Blah blah blah.

295
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 4: This just feels like it could be a bigger thing

296
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 4: that right now maybe doesn't feel like a big thing,

297
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 4: but it I just I don't. I just think I

298
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 4: hear thirty seven year old back not practicing right now,

299
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 4: I'm a little bit worried.

300
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:53,680
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie.

301
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 3: No, I think you have a right to be worried.

302
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 3: But as someone who has similar back issue, it's it

303
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 3: does take a toll on you.

304
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 5: And I'll say that.

305
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford not being readily available this early in training

306
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 3: camp doesn't worry me as much as you would possibly,

307
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 3: as you know, typically you're like, oh what a bag,

308
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 3: Oh no, he's gonna He's played a lot of football

309
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 3: at the highest level and at the lowest level, and

310
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 3: so him McVeigh, they know exactly what they need to

311
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 3: do to get him ready to go and be available

312
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 3: week one. If that's taking the first couple weeks of

313
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 3: training camp off, okay, I get it. I understand it.

314
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 3: It's not ideal. But what's less ideal is them starting

315
00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:00,120
Speaker 3: the season without him. Sure are them not having him

316
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 3: this season because they didn't plan to not have him,

317
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 3: And so.

318
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 5: I think.

319
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 3: Given him an opportunity to get himself together physically and mentally,

320
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 3: because you got to remember the last couple of years,

321
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 3: what's been the most glaring question for Matthew Stafford.

322
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 5: Are you done? Yeah? Are you going to retire? Is

323
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 5: this it?

324
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 3: And it's never no, no, no, I'm coming back. It's well, look,

325
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get with my family. We'll see, we'll see what.

326
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 5: Right. So he's a player who's reached the highest level.

327
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 3: He's been in this league a long time. I believe

328
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 3: this is seventeen years for him, and he's deciding if

329
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 3: this is going to be his last year or not

330
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,719
Speaker 3: currently as we're in it. And so if that is

331
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 3: the case, he wants to be extra cautious about being

332
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 3: able for the season opposed to doing something tweaking it

333
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 3: and practice and training camp and not being available. So

334
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 3: I get and I understand the cautiousness, especially because retirement

335
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 3: has been in the you know, in his ethos for

336
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 3: a couple of years now.

337
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, interesting scenario. And I think, to your point, as

338
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 4: long as he's ready for week one, I just like

339
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 4: I said thirty seven back, it's worth noting. It's just

340
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 4: something to keep a little bit of an eye on.

341
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 4: Jimmy Garoppolo is obviously the backup with the Los Angeles Rams,

342
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 4: so we'll see what happens. Matthew Stafford, by the way,

343
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 4: to be abundantly clear, zero indication that he won't be

344
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 4: ready for week one. It was just something that caught

345
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 4: my eye as we got ready for today's show. This

346
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 4: is the odd couple Fox Sports Radio Aeron Torres and

347
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 4: e from salam In for Rob Parker and Kelvin Washington

348
00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 4: should mention aching ease stiff back joints, not Cooper. Some

349
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 4: days your body's just like nope. And on those days,

350
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 4: luckily there's a leaf.

351
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 5: With just one pill.

352
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 4: A leaf provides up to twelve hours of pain relief,

353
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 4: so you can keep moving us as directed, We'll come back.

354
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 4: Garrett Bush, host of the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show, say

355
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,159
Speaker 4: this from Cleveland's going to be the center of the

356
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 4: preseason universe here over the next couple of days. Garrett

357
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 4: Bush will join us momentarily, but for the first time

358
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 4: this evening. Mazi belanios, what is trending, Well, we've.

359
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,479
Speaker 7: Got some NFL preseason action, Fallace, that's right football. I

360
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 7: know we've got the Ravens on the Colts right now,

361
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 7: but there's three preseason games starting any minute.

362
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 6: Now.

363
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 7: We got the Bengals and the Eagles, and also at

364
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 7: ten Eastern it'll be the Raiders and the Seahawks. But

365
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 7: even though it's only been five minutes in this first quarter,

366
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 7: let me tell you what has happened. So Ravens having

367
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 7: Cooper rush out there at the quarterback position through an

368
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 7: early interception that led to a Colts field goal, but

369
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 7: Baltimore responded Keaton Mitchell, a twenty two years rushing touchdown.

370
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 5: Colts get the ball back.

371
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 7: Anthony Richardson gets sacked hard, goes to the sideline holding

372
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 7: his arm.

373
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones in.

374
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 5: The game way earlier than they planned.

375
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 7: We'll see what happens because now the Ravens have the

376
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 7: ball again.

377
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 5: My Chowney inter up eph from really quick.

378
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 4: If these two are competing for the starting job and

379
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 4: one goes down with an injury, seems kind of dumb

380
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 4: to put the other guy that might have to play

381
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 4: for him.

382
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 5: And am I crazy to say that?

383
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you need neither one of these guys have

384
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 3: been spectacular, That's what I'm saying. So you they the

385
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 3: reps are the most important thing, Okay, So they gotta

386
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 3: figure this out and the only way you can figure

387
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 3: it out is you got Daniel Jones should.

388
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 5: Be like yes, Like he should be like, this is it.

389
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 3: This is happening for me, I guess because that gives

390
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,360
Speaker 3: him such a huge advantage. So no, he was like, no, no, good,

391
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 3: I played a whole game, man, whatever it is, put

392
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 3: me in I'm good. So this is one of those

393
00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,400
Speaker 3: situations where he should take a stay in there as

394
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 3: long as they need him or want him to stay

395
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 3: in there, knowing he will be the starter next week.

396
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 3: If the injury is it's you know, it's significant. So

397
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 3: now it's a good thing, okay.

398
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 5: Fair Daniel Jones for Daniel Jones.

399
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,000

Speaker 5: Well, let's talk about it.

426
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 4: I mean, listen, this is the biggest story right now

427
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 4: in preseason football. Shadoor Sanders getting the opportunity to start

428
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 4: Joe Flacco. We know with his age they're gonna give

429
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 4: him time off, and obviously Dylan Gabriel and Kenny Pickett

430
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 4: both banged up.

431
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 5: I don't know, like, is there excitement? Is there intrigue?

432
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 6: How?

433
00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 8: What?

434
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 5: What?

435
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 4: What word would you use to describe interest from the

436
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 4: fan base in this game?

437
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 6: Listen, every every television is going to be tuned to

438
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 6: this preseason game. There's a faction of people that are

439
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 6: believers in Shador Sanders. There's another faction of people that

440
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 6: want him to prove it and they don't think that

441
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 6: the hype is real. And then there's another faction of

442
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 6: people that's sitting somewhere in between that's just like, listen,

443
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 6: give me a quarterback. I don't care where we find one.

444
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 6: If it you do or great if not, who cares? Right, Like, so,

445
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 6: everybody that the intriguer is on one hundred and everybody

446
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 6: in the city, and I think around the country is

447
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 6: gonna be watching this.

448
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 5: Yeah.

449
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 3: I think the story itself, the draft of the college,

450
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 3: the lineage all plays into this. What does your door

451
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 3: need to do to really solidify himself as a possible

452
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 3: starter for the Cleveland Browns And it starts with this

453
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 3: first preseason game tomorrow.

454
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 6: Well, you know, you play it in the league. And

455
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 6: I tell people all the time, listen, when it comes

456
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 6: down to the NFL, if you can an opportunity, it

457
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 6: might not be the best opportunity in the world. It

458
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 6: may not be the greatest opportunity. You might be playing

459
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,199
Speaker 6: with the ones you might even playing with Spody not

460
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 6: gonna be on the team next week, but you got

461
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 6: an opportunity to put solid film on tape, and you

462
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 6: got an opportunity to show that you could do the

463
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 6: basics king. The knock on your door is hey picking

464
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 6: up slow? Can you get in and out of the huddle?

465
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 6: The knock on your door that he's holding the ball

466
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 6: too long? In college and how he's gonna do that

467
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 6: in pros? Did that being getting back the third five steps,

468
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 6: dropping the ball and be on time, knowing the players are,

469
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,359
Speaker 6: where the progression and the passing progression is going, and

470
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 6: just looking moving. People do that. It's one of the

471
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 6: panthers I think people. It'll get people more confidence to

472
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 6: say we want to see what this guy has to

473
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 6: offer more. This is the player. This ain't a short

474
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 6: game like he's gonna have to still continue, but he

475
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 6: wants to give some ammunition to go and say maybe

476
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 6: you should get this guy more reps.

477
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,360
Speaker 4: This is the couple of Fox Sports radio erators from

478
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 4: Salaam In for Rob and Kelvin. We are joined by

479
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 4: Garrett Bush of ninety two to three the Fan in Cleveland.

480
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 4: Follow him on Twitter at g Bush ninety one, Garrett,

481
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 4: you know, just big picture with Shador. I don't know

482
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 4: how much access that you guys have had to him

483
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 4: over the course of the spring, summer and now into

484
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 4: the fall.

485
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 5: But just what is he?

486
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 4: You know, I saw Miles Garrett say that, you know,

487
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 4: he can be fun, but he could be serious. It

488
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 4: seems like the guys in the locker room to a

489
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 4: degree have responded to him. Just your experiences being around

490
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 4: Shador after everything that we heard around draft times, Well.

491
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 6: Look, man, everything that I've seen so far shows that

492
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 6: he's a special type of a young guy. I want

493
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 6: to see people throw touchdowns just like everybody else. But

494
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 6: I got to judge based on what you're doing in

495
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 6: between the white lines. But outside of the white lines

496
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 6: is where I get respect for you as the man

497
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 6: and as an individual. And you know some projects you

498
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 6: pulled up he had, he had, he brought people, he

499
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 6: brought food trucks, he brought the community together. He's not

500
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 6: from that area, and he really did that like out

501
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 6: of their own kindness, of his heart, and to just

502
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 6: to see some of those kids looked and not not

503
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 6: be like, oh my goodness, like at one point in

504
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 6: time they were just kids that were just having fun,

505
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 6: not that they lost everything and they're poor and the disenfranchised.

506
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 6: So I respect him with that. He handled a rate.

507
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 6: He's answered the questions with humility, and from what I

508
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 6: could gather of all the people in the locker room,

509
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,439
Speaker 6: he talked to people. He's a really enjoyable guy, and

510
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 6: the locker room seems to really gravitate to him.

511
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, for me, that's the biggest thing coming into a

512
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 3: locker room as a rookie, having an opportunity to compete

513
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:48,880
Speaker 3: for a starting job. I understood as being a late

514
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,479
Speaker 3: round draft pick, and he was.

515
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 5: I did the maths.

516
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 3: He was drafted probably I think like fifty four picks

517
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 3: before I was. But the fact of the matter is

518
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 3: I knew I had to do everything right, not only

519
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 3: on the field, but off the field. And he had

520
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 3: a couple issues with some speeding and miscordate that that

521
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 3: set him back in the eyes of the franchise.

522
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 6: Any Yeah, listen, Andrew Barry came out and he did

523
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 6: since press conference and he talked about that. He was

524
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 6: disappointed in it. He said it was a lapse in

525
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 6: judgment and if you, if you were to ask me,

526
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 6: I do think that that hurt him a little bit.

527
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 6: If you go back and you look at his trajectory

528
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 6: after rookie mini camps, I thought, I thought, this whole camp,

529
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 6: he's throwing the ball better than Dylan Gabriel. However, when

530
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 6: you have anything and you know as being a late

531
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 6: round draft pick, you're you got an uphill battle in

532
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 6: front of you to catch the guy that got drafted

533
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 6: in a third round to start with. So it's always

534
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,959
Speaker 6: going to be an uphill battle. See, you gotta overdo it,

535
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,959
Speaker 6: you gotta kill it when you on the field, and

536
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 6: you got to keep your head down and make sure

537
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 6: that you were acclimating to to the rules regulation. So,

538
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 6: you know, is relatively I think he's a good kid,

539
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 6: not kid, but you know, he's a good young guy,

540
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 6: and I think he learned from it. But he does

541
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 6: have some spots, some spots to make up and some

542
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 6: space to make up. And he has a golden opportunity

543
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 6: due to some injuries to Dylan Gabriel and Kenny Pickett,

544
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 6: where he can go out there and be a fifth

545
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 6: round pick and be a guy that's going to start

546
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 6: the first preseason game. This is a tremendous opportunity and

547
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 6: he has to take advantage of it.

548
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 4: Garrett Bush from ninety two to three to the Fan

549
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 4: in Cleveland. We got about one minute left. Last question.

550
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 4: We know that if you include Tyler Huntley who just signed,

551
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 4: and you include Deshaun Watson, who of course isn't going

552
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 4: to play this year, six quarterbacks currently on the roster.

553
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 4: Do you believe Week one Shador Sanders will still be

554
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 4: part of this organization?

555
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 6: Yes, I do. I think you know, Andrew Barry was

556
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 6: asked about it. I think the Browns may actually keep

557
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 6: four quarterbacks. Joe Flackle will probably end up being the

558
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 6: starter due to Kenny Tickett, you know, missing some time.

559
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 6: But the Browns kind of view their fifty three man

560
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 6: roster the last three or four positions on that roster's

561
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 6: developmental picks. I think they'll use those to keep those

562
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 6: guys on the active roster. And I actually think the

563
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 6: Cleveland Browns will have four quarterbacks on the main roster

564
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 6: Week one.

565
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 4: That is Garrett Bush. He is the host of the

618
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 4: piece of news from the world of sports media, kind

619
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 4: of our lane. But last couple of days it's been

620
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 4: officially announced ESPN and NFL Network have merged. Why I

621
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 4: bring it up, this is stunning to me, but there's

622
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 4: been a lot of conversation about red zone. Red zone

623
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 4: is of course the channel that you can put on

624
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: all the different games that the other thing, and basically

625
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 4: it is a staple for many who watch who watch

626
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 4: the NFL on Sundays. Roger Goodell was asked about it

627
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 4: on Wednesday. He said, quote, ESPN purchased the red zone name,

628
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 4: and they will be able to utilize that for other

629
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 4: sports college football and other things. And I think that

630
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 4: could be an exciting thing for our fans to see

631
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 4: a red zone maybe in college football or other sports.

632
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 4: That's something that they now own and have the ability

633
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 4: to do that. First of all, really quickly, am I

634
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 4: told correctly, you don't like red zone?

635
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 3: No, I don't watch red zone. You don't watch Red Zone. No,

636
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 3: why because I watch all eight or nine games at

637
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 3: one time. Do you have eight separate monitors? Okay, I

638
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 3: mean listen, I'm not.

639
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 5: Really in my business right now. I mean I'm just

640
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 5: really dipping into some personal I mean, I don't know,

641
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 5: you got two phones. I mean, get your hand on

642
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 5: my pocket.

643
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 6: Man.

644
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 3: Games, I watch them, and I've done that. That was

645
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 3: my problem with YouTube taking over Sunday Ticket. On Sunday Ticket,

646
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,959
Speaker 3: they put all eight games on at one time. Sure,

647
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,720
Speaker 3: you had eight games going at one time, local game whatever.

648
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 3: I love that because now I could just boom, I

649
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,359
Speaker 3: put it on. If there's one game, the ninth game,

650
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 3: I can have my iPads set up and watch them.

651
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,359
Speaker 3: But I watch every single play in every single game.

652
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 5: Wow.

653
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 3: And been doing that since I've been retired, since I've

654
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,800
Speaker 3: been you know, up here talking about it, because I

655
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 3: like to be informed about what I'm talking about. Sure,

656
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 3: so I have a Sundays from five to eight pm,

657
00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 3: myself and Mark will to have our show, and so

658
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 3: we don't know where the conversation is going to go.

659
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 3: And I pride myself on being able to speak to

660
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 3: whatever happens in whatever game, especially during football season, because

661
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 3: it's so much and these topics can come from anywhere.

662
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 3: So I'm taking notes and then being able to come

663
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,800
Speaker 3: in here and talk about it. So Red Zone doesn't

664
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 3: do anything for me. Red Zone's not going to show me,

665
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 3: you know right now the interers. I don't want to

666
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 3: see the stuff that happened already. And then, you know,

667
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 3: I will say this, the time I did enjoy Red Zone,

668
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 3: I was in London and they had one game on.

669
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 3: They had the one game on, but then they had

670
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 3: Red Zone in the hotel and it allowed me to

671
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 3: get the pieces of the other games. Sure that was great,

672
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 3: But if I'm at home, I got to set up right.

673
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 3: So I had two televisions and I can have four

674
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 3: on the screen and four on that screen. Okay, so

675
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 3: I can. And they're not small screens, so it's not

676
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 3: like I'm looking at each game on a nineteen inch monitor. Sure,

677
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:17,479
Speaker 3: so it bowls well for it helps me to watch

678
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 3: it like that Red Zone just it's a lot going

679
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 3: on now you watch Red Zone. I do like Red Zone, Yeah,

680
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 3: most people do. I will say that we went to

681
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 3: the callers and that one caller said I don't like

682
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 3: Red Zone.

683
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 4: Yeah no, And there you know, every different strokes for

684
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 4: different folks, and I think to your point, like you

685
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 4: have a different vantage point than I do, where like

686
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 4: you know, respectfully, like I, you know, you're watching the

687
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 4: footwork and the left tackle, you know, like I'm just

688
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 4: watching the guy get get the quarterback get blown up right.

689
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 4: You know, you need to see the footwork of the

690
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 4: left tackle. So I get that Cadell referencing. By the way,

691
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 4: a very interesting little thing in there, the idea of

692
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 4: a college football red zone. Now, understandably, with different TV

693
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,839
Speaker 4: contracts and all that, it gets a little bit complicated.

694
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 4: Would you be in favor? Would you be interested on

695
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 4: a Saturday you know, you you know, you maybe don't

696
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 4: have to watch the college game as closely? Would you

697
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,919
Speaker 4: be as interested in a college red zone where they're

698
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 4: jumping in and out of games all day, every day,

699
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 4: or all day every Saturday.

700
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,959
Speaker 3: I can see how that would be appealing and people

701
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 3: would like that. But for me, how many great college

702
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 3: games are on at this They're on at the same time. Yep,

703
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 3: that's the whole thing. It's not that the NFL, it's

704
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 3: just right, it's it's games. But in college they'll have

705
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 3: the early game, which is the gotta be there for

706
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 3: then they'll have a little bit of low than like

707
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 3: the third game is the great game, and then Saturday

708
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 3: evening to be another big game. But if you want

709
00:37:53,120 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 3: to watch Middle Tennessee versus allcorn State, sure, then okay, yeah, yeah.

710
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 3: So for me, I can see how for gamblers and

711
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:12,319
Speaker 3: people who who enjoy the spectacle of it, I can

712
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 3: see how that fits and that works, and I get it,

713
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 3: and I can see how there's value there. But for me,

714
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 3: if I'm watching the college game, if it's not San

715
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 3: Diego State, then I'm watching the next big game.

716
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 5: That is okay. Yeah, it's an interesting thought.

717
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, somebody brought up a great point

718
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 4: of like, it sounds great in theory, and I think

719
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 4: it would be good. The other counter to it is

720
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,399
Speaker 4: there are so many teams like Scott Hansen, as great

721
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 4: as he is, and this isn't gonna I hope this

722
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 4: doesn't sound like I'm saying he's not great, but he's

723
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 4: got to know thirty two teams, thirty two rosters, you

724
00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 4: know whatever.

725
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 5: It's like.

726
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 4: College football is one hundred plus teams. Plus you have

727
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 4: the scenario where you know, certain broadcast limitations for certain whatever,

728
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 4: but it is an interesting thought. Roger Goodell saying on Wednesday,

729
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 4: ESPN purchased the red zone name. They will be able

730
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 4: to utilize it that for other sports, college football and

731
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 4: other things. So there is a possibility that we are

732
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 4: getting a college football red zone in the future. Fox

733
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 4: Sports Radio, this is the odd couple. Kelvin and robout

734
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 4: RATORSI from slam In when we come back more college football,

735
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 4: arch Manning?

736
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 5: Could he be a texas long as we expect? Fox Sports,

737
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 5: are you
