He is now the 13 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: football coach and has been for several years in Alabama 14 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: Saint Michael Catholic. His son now is the quarterback and 15 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: a good one. Philip Rivers is now joining US live today. 16 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: You know, I gotta tell the audience, I've never seen 17 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: your son play, but his name is Gunner Rivers, and 18 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, that's a franchise quarterback name. 19 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: I would draft him sight unseen on that, just on 20 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: the name. Now, you were a trash talker and you 21 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: had a different delivery. Does he have your kind of sight, 22 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: arm delivery. Is he a little trash talker? 23 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: Does he? 24 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 3: Does? 25 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: He have some of the Philip Rivers classic traits. 26 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 4: Hey, Colin, how's it going? 27 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 5: Yeah? 28 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 6: No, he uh, he definitely. Uh, he definitely has some 29 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 6: of the same traits. 30 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 7: Uh. 31 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 4: He's a little more traditional throwing the football. 32 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 6: Than than I than I was. But a lot of 33 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 6: people see him throw and go, dang, you throw just 34 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 6: like your dad. So he has a little bit of that. 35 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 6: I guess it's just genetic. 36 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 4: Uh. And then he's a little more reserved than I am. 37 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 6: He has the fire and passion for the game, but 38 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 6: I think he's got his mom's calmness, which which will 39 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 6: probably serve him well. 40 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: I think everybody, very few people had your intensity on 41 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: the field. 42 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 7: You know what's amazing. 43 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: You were a trash talker, but players, even opponents loved you. 44 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: Did you think your intensity you're obviously talented. Did you 45 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: think your passion and intensity was your best trait? 46 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 8: Uh? 47 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: It was. 48 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 4: It was probably one of them. I think, you know, 49 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 4: I had to. I had to. 50 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 6: I had to a little bit toe the line. I 51 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 6: probably crossed the line a few times. 52 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 4: You know. 53 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 6: I think there's a there's a there's a you know, 54 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,679 Speaker 6: a line that you don't want to cross to where 55 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 6: you you maybe you're not helping yourself or your team. 56 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 4: So I'm sure that I didn't always keep that in check. 57 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 6: But I do think that the passion and the fire 58 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 6: and the intensity was genuine. I don't think, I know 59 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 6: it was genuine, and I do think it was felt 60 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 6: by our teammates, and and and some regard helped, you know, 61 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 6: fuel kind of our personality and and and our you know, 62 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 6: resiliency and how we how we went about the game. 63 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 6: And then you mentioned our opponents, and I hope, I 64 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 6: hope you know you gained You obviously gained respect of 65 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 6: your opponent over doing it for a long period of time. 66 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 6: Uh So, maybe not early on, but I think as 67 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 6: time grew, you gained that respect and they realized, man, 68 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 6: this dude loves to play football. 69 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 4: And that's really all I was. 70 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 6: There's a guy playing football in the backyard, and I 71 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 6: just never let that leave me, although we were playing, 72 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 6: you know, in front of you know, a million people 73 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 6: there on a Sunday afternoon. 74 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: You know, the you told me one time, and I've 75 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: used this whenever I give a speech, I always say, 76 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: the great Philip Rivers told me he liked the process 77 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: of building the game plan as much as the game. 78 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: And can you instill that in your son or a 79 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: young quarterback or do you think that was just your 80 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: dad was a football coach.

Can you 84 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: teach that? Or did you feel that was just in 85 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: you from day one? 86 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 4: Well? 87 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 6: I do think that there was a some of that 88 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 6: that was just in me. But I think he got 89 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 6: to you better grow to uh, to love it, to 90 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 6: love the process, especially playing this position.

And I don't think you can get there 95 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 6: if you just think you're going to, you know, show 96 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 6: up and go out there and play for three and 97 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 6: a half hours on a Sunday afternoon, and so the 98 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 6: you know, the the process of every day and the 99 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 6: chance to be on the grass with your buddies practicing football, uh, 100 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 6: you know, and sitting in a meeting room and figuring 101 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 6: out you know, uh, spags is blitz patterns and rex 102 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 6: Rinse blitz patterns and all these and like figuring out 103 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 6: how we're going to get this thing picked up to 104 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 6: throw a touchdown to Antonio Gates. I mean, that's that's 105 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 6: that's what it is. That's a blast or even a 106 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 6: third down conversion versus zimmers, you know, a double mug scheme. 107 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 6: I mean, those things were so fun to work on 108 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 6: all week, and then when it came to in the game, 109 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 6: you know, there were some some of the most gratifying 110 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 6: plays on a Sunday afternoon were the ones the fans 111 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 6: didn't even realize. 112 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,720 Speaker 4: But it was the but the behind the. 113 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 6: Scenes preparations, you know, and it's those those the Saturday 114 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 6: morning walkthroughs, the bus rides, all those things that lead 115 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 6: up to the game. 116 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 4: I certainly love to play. 117 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 6: I loved the games and running out of the tunnel 118 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 6: and all those things that I used to ask my 119 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 6: mom and dad, hey, introduce me. You know, I'm coming 120 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 6: out and we're playing soever, you know, whoever, and they 121 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 6: would inner and I'd come running out down the hall, 122 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 6: you know, getting introduced. So I love that part I'll 123 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 6: be clear on that, but it was the process that 124 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 6: made that part so special and and so. But I 125 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 6: just don't know how you play quarterback and don't are 126 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 6: all in on the process if you're trying to be 127 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,239 Speaker 6: you know, trying to be you know, one of the best. 128 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: You know, it's I have said this one of the things. 129 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: I do think you can become more accurate with coaching. 130 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: I think your footwork can improve with coaching. But there 131 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: is one thing that I just think is innate. Certain 132 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: quarterbacks Mahomes, you could see this instantly. Patrick can see 133 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: the field. He just sees the field. You did, Breeze did, 134 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: Brady obviously did. And then I'll watch some young guys 135 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: and I'm like, I don't know if they I don't 136 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 1: know if they can see it like. 137 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 7: There and I know there's a film study. 138 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: Did you get Did you always have that because you 139 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: were a good high school college coach the ability to 140 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: And I've heard this set about you, and I've heard 141 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: this set about Peyton and Brady that when a play 142 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: was over, you could look at the right side of 143 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: the field and yet you knew what was going on 144 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: and could see the left side of the field without 145 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: staring at it. The great quarterbacks have this innate ability. 146 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: They just there's a rhythm to the secondary. And I 147 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: guess my question is, are there can you teach that 148 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: you had an innate feel for the position? Are there 149 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: some things Philip that aren't teachable? 150 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 9: Yeah? 151 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 4: I mean I think yes. 152 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 6: I mean I think there's certain things and talents that 153 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 6: so many guys have and so many different positions that 154 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 6: are God given ability. And you can, like you said, 155 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 6: I agree hundred percent. You know, we got to clamp 156 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 6: some footwork, we gotta cleamp some fundamentals. We can clean 157 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 6: up how you're reading this, or maybe your eyes are 158 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 6: just in the wrong place. But there are some things, 159 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 6: you know, being able to have to be accurate. You 160 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 6: can work on accuracy. Some people just they can throw 161 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 6: all day long and they just aren't very accurate, and 162 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 6: you know, accuracy, anticipation and to be able to see 163 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 6: it all in process it fast. Definitely you can improve it, 164 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 6: but you're probably in a window. You know, someone that 165 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 6: can't do that. You can't get them to an elite level. 166 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 6: Someone that's pretty dang good at it. Maybe you can 167 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 6: get them to really good at. 168 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 4: It, but you can't. I don't think you can. 169 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 6: There's there's certain parts of playing the position that you 170 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 6: can't make vast improvements. And some guys like you mentioned Mahomes, 171 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 6: and you know, we could go on and on of 172 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 6: talking about guys there are at a certain level already 173 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 6: that they are able to process and do those things 174 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 6: coached or not coached. And then now you throw in 175 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 6: Andy Reid and some of the other coaches he's had 176 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 6: and now and the experience that he's gained, and then 177 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 6: you can take him to an even even higher level. 178 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 6: But he was already, you know, pretty dang elite at it. 179 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 4: So I do agree. I do agree with you on 180 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 4: those things. 181 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 6: And you know, it's funny because and everybody has their process. 182 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 6: You know, me and Drew were teammates. We got to 183 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 6: connect this weekend. It was great to see Drew. And 184 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 6: we had such a different, uh process in terms of 185 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 6: our daily routine. But yet they were both they both 186 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 6: worked and and there's some similarities. But I say that 187 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 6: not to mention this about Drew, but just we all 188 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 6: have our different routines. But uh, I used to I 189 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 6: wasn't big looking at the iPad off the you know, 190 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 6: coming off the field. Now I would go look at 191 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 6: it to see or see the pictures to confirm maybe 192 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 6: or Dane, maybe they fooled me. I need to go 193 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 6: see it. But a lot of times, you know, it 194 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 6: was kind of a running joke. I'd say, I saw 195 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 6: it live, Guys, I just saw it live, and I 196 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 6: need to come back over here and look at it again. 197 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:31,679 Speaker 3: Crap. 198 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 6: I know I should have gone the other way, you know, 199 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 6: so and again, and that was in an arrogant way. 200 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 6: It was just I saw live, you know, And so 201 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 6: certainly I use those tools as needed over there. But yeah, 202 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 6: there is definitely some of that. And and I say 203 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 6: it in humility because shoot, I threw it to the 204 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 6: other team, you know, shoot two hundred times or haveing 205 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 6: many times. 206 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 4: So I certainly all right decisions. 207 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 6: But I feel like I did have that ability to 208 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 6: see it and process it quickly and throw with anticipation 209 00:08:59,080 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 6: and be acturate. 210 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of the Herd weekdays 211 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 2: and Noone Easter not a em Pacific. 212 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 8: Hey, this is Jason McIntyre.

I wrote about this in my 222 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: first book. I've had this theory forever that most of 223 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: the great quarterbacks. At one point North Carolina State had 224 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: three starting quarterbacks in the NFL, and Cow had two 225 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: or three, and USC and Ohio State had none. 226 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,479 Speaker 7: That there's an argument to be made. 227 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: That when you play at a North Carolina State or 228 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: a COW or a Miami of Ohio or a PERNDEU, 229 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: that's real life in the NFL. 230 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 7: You're getting hit, the windows are small. 231 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: These USC guys are throwing to wide, open wide receivers. 232 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: You're not doing that at Duke. You're not doing that 233 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: at NC State. That I think it was an advantage 234 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: for you to go to NC State instead of an 235 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: Ohio State because the NFL truth is discomfort. Nobody's that open. 236 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: You don't get great protection. You're getting hit constantly. I 237 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: used to joke, I remember Matt Lioner at USC one 238 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: year he got sacked eleven times. He may have just 239 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: fallen down half of those. He barely got touched. That 240 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: when I was I'll give you an example. JJ McCarthy 241 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: always played with the lead Michigan a perfect offensive line. 242 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 7: I worry about JJ. 243 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: Three years with hardball or two years with hardball, he 244 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: barely got touched. Do you think there's an advantage getting 245 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: beat up a little bit in college like Mahomes or 246 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: Josh Allen then going to the NFL. 247 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean when you yeah, I'm sold based on that, uh, 248 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 6: that minute of you saying that. I never thought of 249 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 6: it that way, And I certainly didn't ever feel like, 250 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 6: uh I had inferior. 251 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 4: Teammates those years at NC State. 252 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 8: Uh. 253 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 6: But there's a combination of that of yeah, maybe, and 254 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 6: even more so maybe now you don't have the you know, 255 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 6: you're all the comparisons you made make perfect sense. But 256 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 6: we felt like in NC State we were going to 257 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 6: think and win them all. You know, we thought we 258 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 6: were going to win them all. So I say that 259 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 6: with all due respect to certain teammates that hack beeruse. 260 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 6: I had many teammates you mentioned the quarterbacks, you know 261 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 6: behind me, the great receiver Tory Hole, many teammates of 262 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 6: mine that had the long careers in the NFL. But yes, 263 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 6: and I think too, you get to play, you play 264 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 6: more games. You know, I played in fifty one college 265 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 6: football games. So I definitely felt like even more equipped 266 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 6: than had you go to a place and you only 267 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 6: play two years. You play twenty games, and you played 268 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 6: from a lead, and you hand it off and you throw. 269 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 4: It eighteen times. I threw a hundred. 270 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 6: I threw one hundred passes in my first two games 271 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 6: in NC State with Norm Chowt. 272 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 2: You know, so but then you but you're right though. 273 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 6: You at the NFL, and I was in my first 274 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 6: few first week or two of mini camp and uh 275 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 6: and and we had some play on I don't remember, 276 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 6: and I didn't throw the ball. I got to the 277 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 6: check down, didn't throw the deep cross or deep over 278 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 6: and and Cam Cameron said why didn't you throw it? 279 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 4: And I said he's not open, and he said he's 280 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 4: wide open. 281 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 6: And I was like, dang, okay, Like that's there's the 282 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 6: windows and the separations. So those things. Those things are 283 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 6: all true that you say. Now you're taking Matt Lighter 284 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 6: to J. J. McCarthy, a guy that can come from 285 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 6: those you know, uh historic programs and they can still 286 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 6: have unbelievable NFL career be great. So it's not like 287 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 6: you can't that way. But is there something to be 288 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 6: said for the you know, the Texas text and the 289 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 6: Wyomings and NC states of the world. Maybe heck yeah, 290 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 6: And you know, uh, I definitely think there's something to 291 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 6: game experience and and playing and playing. There's no similar 292 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 6: there's nothing, no substitute for playing. 293 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 4: You have to play. 294 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, So Antonio Gates makes the Hall of Fame speaking 295 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: college never played a college football snap take me to 296 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: it may have been a practice. When was the first 297 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 1: moment you're at practice or somewhere with him and you went, 298 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: who's that guy? 299 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 7: Like you knew? 300 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 1: How long did it take for you to identify whoa 301 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: People can't guard him. He's too big for linebackers, he's 302 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: too he's too strong for safeties. 303 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 7: How long did it take? 304 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 4: Well? 305 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: Not long. 306 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 6: I mean I was in my rookie year and I 307 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 6: had a front row seat my first two years, you know, 308 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 6: with Drew and and and and and Gates that would 309 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 6: have been his you know, he was a rookie the 310 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 6: year before me, and so I got to see it. 311 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 6: I got to see it from the sideline is for 312 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 6: you know, those first two years. And he was one 313 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 6: of those guys that you know, we had a Gates 314 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 6: rul We had a Gates troel, we had we had 315 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 6: the we had the progression for the play and based 316 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 6: off the coverage, and then we said, okay, and this 317 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 6: one is Gates rul and and it was which meant, hey, 318 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 6: if he's singled up, I don't care if the leverage 319 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 6: is good for him, He's gonna beat them anyway. 320 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 4: And it was just that over wrote that, that over you. 321 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 6: Know, uh, the progression was then done. 322 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 4: It was overridden by the Gates rule. 323 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 6: But he uh, he had a unique ability to he 324 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 6: was fast and big, but he had a unique ability 325 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 6: to understand body position and getting hands off and attack 326 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 6: and attacking leverage and doing those things. And and I 327 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 6: I you know, he was always considered this basketball guy, 328 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 6: basketball guy, basketball guy. But I think what he did 329 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 6: was he was very humble in saying, crap, I want 330 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 6: to be a football guy. And I got to learn 331 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 6: all this what is all the coverages? And they're bracketing me? 332 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 6: And where's the help and what? And once he learned that, 333 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 6: then it was then it was forget about it. And uh, 334 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 6: and that's why he had that stretch, you know, seven 335 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 6: or eight nine year stretch. Obviously he played longer than that, 336 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 6: and his whole career was awesome, but he had that 337 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 6: stretch where he was arguably, you know, just uncoverable. 338 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: So finally your son, Gunner Rivers is is and you 339 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: could look him up. He's going to be one of 340 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: those top quarterbacks on all those recruiting things. So you're 341 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: gonna start hearing about him. Do you ever watch him 342 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: and think, man, he does that a little better than 343 00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: Dad did at his age? 344 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 7: Is there is there anything you're just thinking? 345 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: Man, he may be he maybe have a little better 346 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: fastball than Dad, or he may he may move a 347 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: little better than dad. 348 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, that happens. That happens. Uh, more than you'd think. 349 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 4: I think. 350 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 2: I think too. 351 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 6: The game has just changed so much. You know, you 352 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 6: and I talked a little bit off air briefly. You know, 353 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 6: twenty five years ago it was just different. The game 354 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 6: is just different than what it is Now there wasn't 355 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 6: seven on sevens. And you know, we didn't grow up 356 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 6: playing flag football. I mean me and Gunner and you know, uh, 357 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 6: we we're playing flag football, uh, playing against teams from 358 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 6: Hawaii and Idaho and Arizona. 359 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 4: And all this when we're in California when he was 360 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 4: ten years old. 361 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 6: You know, so you're getting you're getting to practice that 362 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 6: anticipation and accurate accuracy as a ten year old. And 363 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 6: so he's just he's just thrown the football in a 364 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 6: competitive environment a whole lot more because of the day 365 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 6: and age of football that we're in. 366 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 4: And uh, you know, it's it's it's been fun. 367 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 6: It's fun to it's fun to coach him and his 368 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 6: teammates and be at this, be at the school and 369 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 6: and coach these guys up and you know, and and 370 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 6: again remember the mission is this more than about the game. 371 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 6: I remind these guys just go to end for you 372 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 6: at some point. Most of our guys, it's going to 373 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 6: end when they graduate high school. And hopefully, you know 374 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 6: Gunner and he does have some teammates that can advance 375 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 6: and play college football. But I remind them that even 376 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 6: if you get to play for seventeen years, it does 377 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 6: stop and the clock will end. So it's got to 378 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 6: be more than just the x'es and o's. You got 379 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 6: to learn those those life lessons that you get from 380 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 6: this great sport. And I'm hopeful that I can pass 381 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 6: some of that down to these guys and help them 382 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 6: be better men for having been in the program. 383 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: Well, you're a class guy, one of my favorite players 384 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: seventeen years. I was looking at some of your stats. 385 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: Six most four hundred and twenty one career passing touchdowns, 386 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: the sixth most in NFL history. Two hundred and forty 387 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: consecutive starts in the regular season. 388 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 7: That is a lot of starts. Was there ever? 389 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: Did you ever have a game day when you just 390 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: felt like crud and started? 391 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 7: Like? 392 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: Did you ever have? I mean, you obviously were not 393 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: in perfect condition. Did you ever not know an hour 394 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: before a game if you're going to start? 395 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 4: No? 396 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 6: No, I know, but but yes, many games were it 397 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 6: felt like crud would be an understatement, But thankfully, I 398 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 6: mean again, this isn't me saying, wow, look how tough 399 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 6: I was. 400 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 4: I really was. 401 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 6: I had a lot of I was blessed with health 402 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 6: and the ability to go out there every Sunday. 403 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 4: I'll just leave it at that. 404 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 6: But there were certain sundays that weren't real fun physically, 405 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 6: weren't real fun during the week to get there, but again, 406 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 6: a lot of great guys up front fight like crazy 407 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 6: to keep me clean, and then you just have some 408 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 6: injuries you have and you deal with them and you 409 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 6: There was the one record that was one of my 410 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 6: favorite growing up. You know, I mentioned the fifty one 411 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 6: Starts in the Road den Cy State, which at a time, 412 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 6: at that time was a record. I think it's been 413 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 6: broken and now these guys playing fourteen fifteen games a year. 414 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 6: But one of my favorite records was Brett Farres Start 415 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 6: Street and I remember watching that going, man, he's played 416 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 6: how many year rowd, Man, he's going to get to 417 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 6: three hundred. And I remember just saying, again, this is 418 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 6: just as a competitor, I'm going I'm going to chase. 419 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 4: Brett far As record. I'm gonna get there. 420 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 6: And I didn't play those first two years, as I 421 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 6: said behind Drew, and I realized ultimately I couldn't get there, 422 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 6: but by golly, I was gonna find a way. He'd 423 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 6: be second, you know, and suit up and be out 424 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 6: there if I could every week for our team.

He took 445 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: a few hits in his day and was always there. 446 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: Two hundred and forty consecutive starts in the regular season. 447 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: That is a ton We take a break herd Line 448 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: News around the corner. 449 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Herd weekdays 450 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 2: in noon Eastern a em Pacific on Fox Sports Radio 451 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 2: FS one and the iHeartRadio app. 452 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: All Right, Joe Thomas and Philip Rivers.

J Mack with the news. 454 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 7: Turn on the news. 455 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 2: This is the Herd Line News, all right. 456 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 8: Rams fans Collins are kind of panicking about this Matt 457 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 8: Stafford back situation. Previously, he was labeled week to week, 458 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 8: which that's not good. 459 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 7: Especially in August. 460 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 8: But reports today say Stafford is progressing to doing on 461 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 8: field work. He got an epidural in his back a 462 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 8: few weeks ago, and the Rams have tried to give 463 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 8: him time to let his back. Heel on his own, 464 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 8: and that means he's hanging out out and about in 465 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,439 Speaker 8: let's say, the South Bay out here in LA. But 466 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 8: I'm of the belief he's going to be fine week one. 467 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 8: This is just an old vet getting a lot of rest. 468 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 8: I would not panic over this backstuff. 469 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 7: I don't think it's a thing at all. I mean, 470 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 7: they've got. 471 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: You know, he's a guy that took some hits and 472 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: he's also and we've noted this, he's the last old 473 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 1: quarterback in the league that will stand in the pocket 474 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 1: to the very end and take a helmet to the teeth. 475 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: But what about Osmond, Dude, he has Aaron Rodgers since 476 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: I think is twenty twenty two averages fewer big plays 477 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 1: twenty plus plays than Derek Carr. Oh yeah, Aaron is 478 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 1: done getting hit. He will not sit in there. And 479 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: by the way, I'd probably be more air than Matt Stafford. 480 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: I'm not blaming him, but Matt's gonna stand there and 481 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: take a hit to the very end. Tom Brady at 482 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: the end was practicing getting sacked. Aaron doesn't want to 483 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: get hit. Eli didn't want to get hit, and they're 484 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: great quarterbacks. Stafford will get hit, so it punitives those 485 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: hits have added up. 486 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 8: It is interesting the narrative surrounding these two old players. Here. 487 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 8: Stafford is ascending, wins the Super Bowl, projected to it 488 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 8: a super Bowl no look passes. Meanwhile, Aaron Rodgers has 489 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 8: been an unmitigated disaster since forcing his way out of 490 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 8: Green Bay. Obviously there was the injury, but I'll there 491 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 8: right now Stafford gets back to another Super Bowl, We're 492 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 8: gonna be talking. I guarantee you Super Bowl week. Well, 493 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 8: Stafford had a better career than Aaron Rodgers. 494 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: I've been playing to get that high school college early 495 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: pro late pro. 496 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 7: Stafford's better now. 497 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: Now, was there a nine year period in the middle 498 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: when Aaron, with a really good organization and always having 499 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 1: good offensive lines, was better than Stafford in Detroit? 500 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 7: Yes, but this. 501 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: Goes back to something we talked about earlier. If you're great, great, 502 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: we'll find you. Sean McVay found a quarterback and a 503 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: losing franchise who kept losing and said that is special. 504 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: So it's like it's justice, Like this guy deserved finally 505 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: to get a great coach. 506 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 7: He was just too talented. 507 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: Tony John Elway was eventually gonna find his magical coach, 508 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: and he got it with Shanahan. 509 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 7: Certainly, let's move on to Drake May. 510 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 8: The hype continues to build for the second year QB 511 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 8: in New England. He's been getting comparisons to Josh Allen, 512 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 8: the reigning MVP. 513 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 7: Here's May responding to that compliment. 514 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 4: He's the MVP. 515 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 3: I think the comparisons are I got a lot of 516 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 3: work to do, you know, with kind of even give 517 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 3: me in the same you know stratusphere or atmosphere as 518 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 3: Josh so luckily in the division. So we have some 519 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 3: good matchups looking forward to, but really comparisons, I'm just 520 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 3: trying to be myself and hey, at the end of 521 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 3: the day, some people think that that's a lot of 522 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 3: in respect for him, but at. 523 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 4: The work to do for that. 524 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think his comp is Herbert, and I think 525 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: it's an accurate one. 526 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 7: I don't think there is a comp for Josh Allen. 527 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 8: Jacques Allen and Herbert are the two comps essentially. 528 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 7: No, No, there is no. Yeah. 529 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,239 Speaker 1: I mean I can see justin Herbert. You can see it, 530 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,959 Speaker 1: same size, they move well, you can you can see Herbert. 531 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: You can see it in college that there is no. 532 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 7: Comp for Josh Allen. There's never anything quite like it. 533 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 8: But what about Dave Craig from your Seattle days, He's 534 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 8: a comp for Josh Allen. 535 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 4: I'm just kidding. 536 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 8: But in all honesty, he was really good stood in 537 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 8: the pocket. 538 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 2: I don't think he was as mobile. 539 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: As Drake Drake's I mean, when you watch Drake right there, 540 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: you can see it. I mean, he's got a he's 541 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: really talented and he has had nothing to work with. So, 542 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: I mean, they've got there. They've got there. It's exciting. 543 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: If you're a New England fan. You got your guy, now, 544 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: how great will he be? But listen, Chicago's never had 545 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: their guy like some of these organizations. I mean Tampa 546 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 1: before Brady. I mean they look forever. The Jets, they're 547 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: still looking for another name of thanks. So, I mean 548 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: it just when you have Drake Man, it's like, okay, 549 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: twelve years, let's just get him protected and get him weapons. 550 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 7: You've got your guy, all right, Let's wrap up with 551 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 7: a little baseball. 552 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 2: My Yanks. 553 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,439 Speaker 8: They got an Aaron Judge back last night, but it 554 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 8: did not matter. They lost their fifth straight to zero 555 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 8: defeat against the Rangers. 556 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 7: Yanks are lost five straight. 557 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 8: People are panicking. I think it's time to take a 558 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 8: deep breath. Here's Judge talking to the media after the game. 559 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 10: Oh, I guess I'm worth to do. I know a 560 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 10: lot of things to clean up, but the boys that 561 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 10: are fired up to, you know, change all that and 562 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 10: get things right. And you got a great ball club 563 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 10: in here. So there's a lot of mistakes all around, 564 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 10: you know, some mental mistakes and physical mistakes. But yeah, 565 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 10: you guys are you gotta pick them and we gotta 566 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 10: fix them. 567 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 8: Now. 568 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're very They're very I mean, once Garrett Cole's gone, 569 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: you lose your a's you become very Aeron Judge reliant. 570 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: And he just got back he would he was out 571 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: and they didn't play well. They're very home run reliant 572 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: and very Aaron Judge reliant. They for all the money 573 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: they spent, and I think the Dodgers and the Mets 574 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: spend more, I think they're third I think right now 575 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: in baseball for all for all the money based spend. 576 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: They feel like they have a little bit of an 577 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: uneven roster. And I mean they're just very Judge and 578 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: home run reliant. 579 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 8: And all the Dodgers fans here put together this interesting 580 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 8: chart Yankees compared to the arguably worst team in baseball, 581 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 8: the White Sox, since July sixth, So we're looking at 582 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 8: a month of data here. Not great when you're compared 583 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 8: to a historically bad White Sox team. I will just 584 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 8: say the Yanks are gonna be okay. They're still firmly 585 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 8: in the wildcard mix. 586 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,719 Speaker 7: There's like forty five ish games left in the season. 587 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 7: They'll be Everybody goes through these lulls. 588 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: They're gonna be a right maybe the Dodgers was in 589 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: about six weeks ago. The Dodgers were tire fire. They 590 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: got swept for the Brewers. Yeah, I mean they got 591 00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,719 Speaker 1: swept by the Brewers. 592 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 7: They and't score. 593 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 1: They have injuries. You have one hundred and sixty two games. 594 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: I'm sorry to ask players have ultimate urgency. If you 595 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: have a couple pitching injuries, you're done right now. The 596 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: Yankees have a you know, Aaron Boone the bullpen and 597 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: Devin Williams. You know, it's just like if they got 598 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: back end issues. 599 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 7: It's the way it works. Jmack with the news. 600 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 2: Well that's the news, and thanks for stopping by The 601 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 2: herd Line News. 602 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: The Good Show today, Philip Rivers was hopefully if you 603 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: were in your car listening for about twenty five minutes, 604 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 1: he was, He's got great stories. And Joe Thomas came 605 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: on earlier today. And you know, you get these days 606 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: on the internet. I swear to got between AI and 607 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: the tribal nature of political fans. 608 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 7: Half the time I don't even know. 609 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: And then you got people on the internet that are 610 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: pretending they're Adam Schefter. I mean, I don't know what 611 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: is true and what's not. So with Cleveland, the video 612 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: I've seen, I think Shador Sanders looks better than Dylan 613 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: Gabriel now say, well, well you Dylan's getting snaps with 614 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 1: the better players. I will say this, the Browns have 615 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 1: a very weak receiving core. So the difference between the 616 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: number two receiver for the Browns and the number four 617 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: is probably not that great. 618 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 7: They're both throwing to just guys. 619 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 1: But Joe Thomas earlier today on on sort of how 620 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: he views the current Browns quarterback pecking order. 621 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 5: So I think Chadur is ahead of Dylan right now. 622 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 9: Dylan clearly has some things that he does really well, 623 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 9: obviously his mobility, his ability to get outside the pocket. 624 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 9: But the challenge of being a short quarterback, especially in 625 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 9: the NFL and NFL passing offenses, is that you have 626 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 9: to throw to a spot a lot of times. You 627 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 9: have to build that trust and that understanding of looking 628 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 9: at the structure of the defense knowing where the ball 629 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 9: needs to go. So far, Chadur has, I think, in 630 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 9: my opinion, outplayed Dylan at this point in training camp 631 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 9: because Dylan's had some struggles with accuracy in Shadur although 632 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,360 Speaker 9: it's not been great with. 633 00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 5: The procedural side of things. 634 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 9: When he's up there under the center and he's trying 635 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 9: to make calls and adjustments at the line of scrimmage, 636 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 9: he's getting everybody lined up the snapcount. 637 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 7: I don't know. 638 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: Of all the voices in Cleveland, that's the one, you know. 639 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: And that's not a knock on the other journalists and 640 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: all the people. Mary kay Cabot, I know she's been 641 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: very optimistic with Shador Sanders. Mary Kay Cabot's excellent. She's 642 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: been optimistic. And Joe Thomas is like I like him 643 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: better than Dylan Gabriel. That's what I'm gonna trust, and 644 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna trust my eyes. He's just a bigger kid 645 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: that throws the ball more accurately, more often. I don't 646 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: know what he's you know, I don't know lining people up. 647 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: Maybe he's not as good at that. I think you 648 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: can develop that over time and reps and practice. But 649 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: here's Joe Thomas. Also, the other thing I asked him about, 650 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: I said, and Joe, I don't know the number. Joe 651 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: Thomas must have had forty quarterbacks behind him, at least 652 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: twenty five. I mean, there's a different guy every week. 653 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: But one of the stories that came out, it's a 654 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: team that's the Browns rival the Steelers, and these are 655 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh reporters saying, yeah, this Aaron thing is very dink 656 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: and dunk. 657 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 7: He won't throw the ball down the field. 658 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: And my take is he doesn't trust the offensive line. 659 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: He didn't trust the Jets all line, and the Steelers 660 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: all line, according to PFF, is worse. And here's Joe 661 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: Thomas on older quarterbacks than Aaron Rodgers sometimes going underneath 662 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: instead of sitting and waiting the extra beat. 663 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 9: The young quarterbacks they don't know any better, right. Their 664 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 9: youth is their ignorance, and it serves them well because 665 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 9: they're willing to stand in there and they're willing to 666 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 9: take those hits right in the chops. And I think 667 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 9: that remains to be seen a little bit with Aaron 668 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 9: Rodgers because he's never been a guy that loved being 669 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 9: hit him. He's never been a huge guy, but he's 670 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 9: always had great feet. He's always been able to extend 671 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 9: the play get out of the pocket with his athleticism, 672 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 9: and we really didn't see that with the Jets and 673 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 9: so far coming out of the Steelers' training camp. 674 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 5: There's been some conversation about him not really showing. 675 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 11: Great mobility, not showing an ability to escape the pocket, 676 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 11: escape the rush, and that comes into question then about 677 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 11: how much is he willing to be able to just 678 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 11: stand in there and extend the play if you can't 679 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 11: do it with his feet anymore, and he's not willing 680 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 11: to take the hits. 681 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's why I've said is I said this 682 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: two or three days ago, and I read multiple stories 683 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: out of the Steelers. I think it's going to look 684 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,479 Speaker 1: like a more polished, better coach version of the Jets. 685 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: Aaron didn't want to take the hits, and I don't 686 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: blame him. Brady didn't, Peyton didn't, Eli didn't, Aaron doesn't. 687 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: Stafford's an outlier. He'll sit in there to the very end. 688 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: Philip Rivers took some shots. Big Ben took way too 689 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: many shots. In my opinion, big Ben would hold the 690 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: ball later in his career, say bro get out of there. 691 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: But I mean, when you watch this video, you know 692 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: you can watch his movement. 693 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 7: He doesn't look like twenty six year old Aaron. 694 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 2: He doesn't. 695 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: He's an older guy. So and since twenty twenty two. 696 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: The staff put it here. The last season in Green Bay, 697 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: Aaron's got fewer what they call big pass plays twenty 698 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: plus yards than Derek Carr. And that's It's not that 699 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: Aaron can't throw it deep. It's just not going to 700 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 1: sit in the pocket and take shots. 701 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 7: Now. 702 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: I think if he played with the Lions or the 703 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: Eagles and their own lines, those numbers would all change. 704 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: It's not his lack of ability Aaron still tents hits. 705 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: His lack of willingness to get hammered. He got no 706 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: interest in that stuff. 707 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 7: All right, we're done. We are done. I think we 708 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 7: fulfilled our obligation for three hours. 709 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:24,479 Speaker 1: You know what,
