It's about the time spent 15 00:00:47,868 --> 00:00:50,748 Speaker 3: together off camera. I couldn't believe what Anthony Richardson did. 16 00:00:50,828 --> 00:00:53,228 Speaker 3: Let's talk about it, Tom for the lead block, lead block. 17 00:00:53,348 --> 00:00:55,348 Speaker 4: Let's get right to some football. 18 00:00:55,668 --> 00:00:59,108 Speaker 5: They played it last night. Rookies, quarterbacks, non guys on 19 00:00:59,148 --> 00:01:02,148 Speaker 5: the other side, Colts and Eagles and Molts. We're going 20 00:01:02,188 --> 00:01:06,028 Speaker 5: to win this one. Twenty seven to thirteen, A fun 21 00:01:06,108 --> 00:01:09,468 Speaker 5: one and a preseason finale. Anthony richards It really was. 22 00:01:09,748 --> 00:01:11,468 Speaker 3: And we had a list of things that we wanted 23 00:01:11,468 --> 00:01:13,748 Speaker 3: to see if Anthony Richardson heading into this final one, 24 00:01:13,788 --> 00:01:16,908 Speaker 3: Peter didn't live up to what you expected desired before 25 00:01:16,948 --> 00:01:17,908 Speaker 3: we see him in the regular seat. 26 00:01:17,948 --> 00:01:18,388 Speaker 7: It's interesting. 27 00:01:18,428 --> 00:01:20,068 Speaker 8: I was curiously what the offense would be, so you 28 00:01:20,108 --> 00:01:21,788 Speaker 8: mentioned that Steichen was with Jalen Hurts. 29 00:01:21,828 --> 00:01:23,508 Speaker 7: They were together, of course in Philadelphia. 30 00:01:23,548 --> 00:01:25,988 Speaker 8: I watched a cutup of all of his snaps and 31 00:01:26,428 --> 00:01:27,948 Speaker 8: I would say ninety five percent of them are out 32 00:01:27,988 --> 00:01:31,468 Speaker 8: of the shotgun. So it's shotgun read option, which is 33 00:01:32,068 --> 00:01:34,508 Speaker 8: very old school but also very Jalen Hurts those first 34 00:01:34,548 --> 00:01:37,388 Speaker 8: couple of years, very Lamar Jackson, those first few years 35 00:01:37,548 --> 00:01:38,988 Speaker 8: where you have the option, do I want to run 36 00:01:39,108 --> 00:01:40,868 Speaker 8: or do I want to hand it off. I don't 37 00:01:40,868 --> 00:01:42,828 Speaker 8: think Anthy Richards is going to fall on his face. 38 00:01:42,908 --> 00:01:44,908 Speaker 8: I think he's got a pretty good offensive line, including 39 00:01:45,268 --> 00:01:47,708 Speaker 8: arguably the best offensive lineman of his generation up there 40 00:01:47,708 --> 00:01:49,828 Speaker 8: in front of him and Quinton Nelson, and you have 41 00:01:49,948 --> 00:01:52,388 Speaker 8: this shotgun, you have an offensive coordinators protecting him. 42 00:01:52,428 --> 00:01:54,388 Speaker 7: I was worried it would be hut At hike him 43 00:01:54,428 --> 00:01:56,308 Speaker 7: scrambling running around, throwing off his back foot. 44 00:01:56,388 --> 00:01:58,148 Speaker 8: It wasn't that last night. And it's think the Colts 45 00:01:58,188 --> 00:01:59,868 Speaker 8: might have a shot here with this kid. It's not 46 00:01:59,908 --> 00:02:01,828 Speaker 8: going to be a home run out of the gates. 47 00:02:01,868 --> 00:02:04,148 Speaker 8: But at the very least he's got the improvisational skills 48 00:02:04,148 --> 00:02:06,268 Speaker 8: to make it work when he has to off script, 49 00:02:06,348 --> 00:02:08,788 Speaker 8: and then on script. He threw a dart in the 50 00:02:08,828 --> 00:02:10,708 Speaker 8: past that was very well designed and he hit it 51 00:02:10,748 --> 00:02:12,828 Speaker 8: and he made it. So it's gonna be slow and steady, 52 00:02:12,828 --> 00:02:15,708 Speaker 8: but there will be some huge, huge home run plays 53 00:02:15,708 --> 00:02:17,028 Speaker 8: where we're like, oh my god, this is the future 54 00:02:17,068 --> 00:02:17,508 Speaker 8: of football. 55 00:02:17,588 --> 00:02:19,788 Speaker 5: Yeah, the mprov plays were impressive. And you said slow 56 00:02:19,828 --> 00:02:21,348 Speaker 5: and steady. I mean, you look at that game. His 57 00:02:21,428 --> 00:02:24,228 Speaker 5: first two throws were wildly inaccurate. Just threw one deep 58 00:02:24,388 --> 00:02:26,588 Speaker 5: and then totally missed a guy, And that's what the 59 00:02:26,668 --> 00:02:28,908 Speaker 5: experience is going to be like. But it's those plays 60 00:02:28,908 --> 00:02:30,988 Speaker 5: because you showed that third down scramble where he makes 61 00:02:30,988 --> 00:02:33,148 Speaker 5: people misspicks up five yards to play before that, he 62 00:02:33,188 --> 00:02:36,028 Speaker 5: scrambles in there, somebody hanging on his body on the 63 00:02:36,028 --> 00:02:38,388 Speaker 5: lower half and he still makes a pass. It's incomplete, 64 00:02:38,428 --> 00:02:40,388 Speaker 5: but it was very accurate. And I think that's the 65 00:02:40,508 --> 00:02:42,948 Speaker 5: fun thing for Anthony Richson. If I'm a Colts fan, 66 00:02:43,308 --> 00:02:45,828 Speaker 5: you're watching him last night and they scored that first touchdown, 67 00:02:45,908 --> 00:02:47,668 Speaker 5: He's in the end zone and I know, I know 68 00:02:48,028 --> 00:02:50,668 Speaker 5: he's in Philly, he's doing the fly Eagles Fly. But 69 00:02:51,068 --> 00:02:55,108 Speaker 5: if that's your quarterback, you're just like, this is fun. 70 00:02:55,708 --> 00:02:58,548 Speaker 5: I like this. Talk your trash, do your thing. And 71 00:02:58,788 --> 00:03:00,868 Speaker 5: hearing him talk about it after the game, it was 72 00:03:01,028 --> 00:03:03,268 Speaker 5: enjoyable to me because he said, I hope no one 73 00:03:03,308 --> 00:03:06,148 Speaker 5: took this the wrong. It wasn't meant for me to 74 00:03:06,348 --> 00:03:08,708 Speaker 5: go out there and say anything. I'm just having fun. 75 00:03:08,788 --> 00:03:11,348 Speaker 5: I'm out here balling, and that's what it's all about. 76 00:03:11,548 --> 00:03:13,628 Speaker 5: You want a young rookie quarterback to go out there 77 00:03:13,628 --> 00:03:16,588 Speaker 5: and be fearless and have fun. And it wasn't just 78 00:03:16,668 --> 00:03:19,188 Speaker 5: him running around. There was a one later on in 79 00:03:19,228 --> 00:03:21,588 Speaker 5: the game where it was an incomplete pass, but you 80 00:03:21,588 --> 00:03:23,828 Speaker 5: look at him, he's sitting in the pocket and he's 81 00:03:23,868 --> 00:03:27,228 Speaker 5: able to make a throw win. Philly's bringing pressure and 82 00:03:27,548 --> 00:03:29,628 Speaker 5: downs drops the ball over the middle. But it's like 83 00:03:29,668 --> 00:03:32,268 Speaker 5: at the same time, you're watching Anthony Richardson and you're like, well, 84 00:03:32,428 --> 00:03:34,708 Speaker 5: we knew he could run the ball. We expected that 85 00:03:34,868 --> 00:03:36,948 Speaker 5: a freight train coming at you. But it was those 86 00:03:36,988 --> 00:03:39,548 Speaker 5: plays complete or incomplete, where he stood in the pocket, 87 00:03:39,788 --> 00:03:41,748 Speaker 5: face pressure and was able to make a throw. It's 88 00:03:41,788 --> 00:03:43,708 Speaker 5: not gonna be pretty all season long. But I think 89 00:03:43,708 --> 00:03:45,748 Speaker 5: if you're a Colts fan, you're just like, my goodness, 90 00:03:45,748 --> 00:03:46,908 Speaker 5: I think we got something with this kid. 91 00:03:46,908 --> 00:03:48,988 Speaker 3: I gotta jump to the fly Eagles Fly thing because 92 00:03:49,028 --> 00:03:51,868 Speaker 3: that just took my breath away, because he so far 93 00:03:52,068 --> 00:03:54,668 Speaker 3: has done a handful of things. They're so likable, like 94 00:03:54,708 --> 00:03:58,188 Speaker 3: there is something about going to arguably one of the 95 00:03:58,348 --> 00:04:00,908 Speaker 3: nastiest places and teams to play against from a fan 96 00:04:00,948 --> 00:04:03,748 Speaker 3: base perspective. And yet somehow I think he's walking away 97 00:04:03,748 --> 00:04:06,188 Speaker 3: from this saying I just didn't want to freeze in 98 00:04:06,188 --> 00:04:07,548 Speaker 3: the ends wone and not know what to do. So 99 00:04:07,588 --> 00:04:09,068 Speaker 3: I thought about it the night before and I hope 100 00:04:09,068 --> 00:04:11,628 Speaker 3: everyone's okay with it, and you're kind of like, Okay, 101 00:04:11,828 --> 00:04:14,388 Speaker 3: we'll give you this one pass free season. He's trying 102 00:04:14,428 --> 00:04:16,628 Speaker 3: to he was just not doing this, which I appreciate, 103 00:04:16,668 --> 00:04:17,228 Speaker 3: all right, Like. 104 00:04:19,468 --> 00:04:21,748 Speaker 5: These young guys like this is a generation. I don't 105 00:04:21,948 --> 00:04:24,628 Speaker 5: care about it. I like it. We're having fun. Yeah yeah. 106 00:04:24,668 --> 00:04:27,268 Speaker 6: And it's interesting because sometimes when people talk trash or 107 00:04:27,308 --> 00:04:29,988 Speaker 6: they talk smack like that, they do it because they're nervous, right, 108 00:04:29,988 --> 00:04:33,828 Speaker 6: it doesn't feel like nervous talk trash talk that talks confidence, 109 00:04:33,868 --> 00:04:36,348 Speaker 6: like yeah, hey, look I know I'm ready to ball Like, sure, 110 00:04:36,348 --> 00:04:38,148 Speaker 6: I'm a rookie, I'm gonna make some mistakes, I'm gonna 111 00:04:38,148 --> 00:04:40,588 Speaker 6: take some lumps, but but I could play on this level. 112 00:04:40,588 --> 00:04:43,068 Speaker 6: And I think that Anthony Richardson believes that he can't 113 00:04:43,148 --> 00:04:45,668 Speaker 6: or he knew it coming in now everybody sees it 114 00:04:45,668 --> 00:04:47,628 Speaker 6: and believes it. I just go back to, like the draft, 115 00:04:47,628 --> 00:04:49,188 Speaker 6: how many times do we sit here at this table 116 00:04:49,228 --> 00:04:52,388 Speaker 6: talking about with c J. Stroud and Bryce Young, Richardson's 117 00:04:52,428 --> 00:04:54,788 Speaker 6: the project, right, he needs raw. He doesn't look raw 118 00:04:54,868 --> 00:04:57,468 Speaker 6: to me, Like we talked all season about this guy, 119 00:04:57,708 --> 00:05:00,148 Speaker 6: like he's gonna need some time. He's gonna need some reps. 120 00:05:00,148 --> 00:05:01,828 Speaker 6: They're gonna have to really, you know, kind of have 121 00:05:01,908 --> 00:05:04,788 Speaker 6: the training goes on. The training wills are off watching 122 00:05:04,868 --> 00:05:07,508 Speaker 6: him play. Yeah, sure he's gonna miss a couple throws here, 123 00:05:07,548 --> 00:05:10,028 Speaker 6: and look, we're gonna put these quarterbacks on the microscope all. 124 00:05:09,948 --> 00:05:13,228 Speaker 7: See look at six or seventeen six seven team. 125 00:05:13,268 --> 00:05:15,948 Speaker 6: But yeah, but you watch the game. He's the best 126 00:05:15,988 --> 00:05:17,908 Speaker 6: athlete on the field. Look look the way he ru 127 00:05:17,988 --> 00:05:20,148 Speaker 6: I mean, this is like Justin Field's two point zero almost. 128 00:05:20,508 --> 00:05:23,588 Speaker 6: But I think the thing that has really impressed me 129 00:05:23,628 --> 00:05:24,988 Speaker 6: the most is the. 130 00:05:24,948 --> 00:05:26,628 Speaker 4: Play that you were showing that third and eleven. 131 00:05:26,908 --> 00:05:29,108 Speaker 6: Look, there's a complete brain farm by the right tackle 132 00:05:29,148 --> 00:05:31,588 Speaker 6: right here, right, he's supposed to block the inside guy, 133 00:05:31,788 --> 00:05:35,228 Speaker 6: win in doubt, block inside out. Okay, so he basically 134 00:05:35,268 --> 00:05:37,828 Speaker 6: we got an unblocked defender and anybody. 135 00:05:37,468 --> 00:05:38,148 Speaker 9: Else is a sack. 136 00:05:38,268 --> 00:05:40,188 Speaker 6: He finds a way to baseball roll out of that 137 00:05:40,268 --> 00:05:42,108 Speaker 6: and turn a negative play into a positive play. They 138 00:05:42,108 --> 00:05:44,068 Speaker 6: didn't get the first down, but still wasn't a sacrifron. 139 00:05:44,388 --> 00:05:47,228 Speaker 6: Just real quick think about the Indianapois Coats quarterbacks for 140 00:05:47,268 --> 00:05:49,468 Speaker 6: the last twenty five minths. Right, went from Peyton Manning, 141 00:05:49,868 --> 00:05:53,188 Speaker 6: all right, pocket quarterback statue in the pocket, there's a 142 00:05:53,228 --> 00:05:55,548 Speaker 6: statue outside of Lucas oil front ye all right, Andrew 143 00:05:55,668 --> 00:05:58,188 Speaker 6: Luck he was mobile. But then we went to Philip Rivers. 144 00:05:58,588 --> 00:06:00,708 Speaker 6: Then we went to Carson Wentz. Then we went to 145 00:06:00,708 --> 00:06:04,388 Speaker 6: Matt Ryan all quarterback. Pocket quarterbacks like they're not gonna 146 00:06:04,508 --> 00:06:06,948 Speaker 6: do what he does. So to your point, the Colts 147 00:06:06,948 --> 00:06:08,988 Speaker 6: got an athletic mobile quarterback and it got some mose 148 00:06:09,028 --> 00:06:10,388 Speaker 6: fun and we ain't scared to talk. 149 00:06:10,508 --> 00:06:10,908 Speaker 4: You know what. 150 00:06:11,188 --> 00:06:12,908 Speaker 6: I think Jerr Mercy likes that a little bit, and 151 00:06:12,908 --> 00:06:14,228 Speaker 6: I think Shane Styken loves it. 152 00:06:14,348 --> 00:06:14,788 Speaker 7: Not at all. 153 00:06:15,188 --> 00:06:15,868 Speaker 9: Clip it off. 154 00:06:15,948 --> 00:06:18,108 Speaker 5: That's a clip right there, dot Com. 155 00:06:18,108 --> 00:06:18,788 Speaker 4: Clip it off. 156 00:06:18,828 --> 00:06:21,468 Speaker 5: That was good to do. Not to be a Debbie 157 00:06:21,508 --> 00:06:23,868 Speaker 5: Downald before we move on. But no, Jonathan Taylor. This 158 00:06:23,948 --> 00:06:26,148 Speaker 5: office just isn't the same. As much as I love 159 00:06:26,348 --> 00:06:30,348 Speaker 5: Evan hold or rookie and Dean Jackson plays much without 160 00:06:30,388 --> 00:06:32,308 Speaker 5: Jonathan Taylor out there. You're looking at that last night 161 00:06:32,348 --> 00:06:32,748 Speaker 5: and just hope. 162 00:06:32,828 --> 00:06:34,908 Speaker 6: Yeah, that big Q had his name called two many 163 00:06:34,948 --> 00:06:36,548 Speaker 6: times last night. You know you had a false start 164 00:06:36,628 --> 00:06:38,348 Speaker 6: and then holy exactly what you're looking. 165 00:06:38,148 --> 00:06:39,308 Speaker 7: For from an all world player. 166 00:06:39,628 --> 00:06:42,228 Speaker 8: One quarterback that's young and has us excited, to another 167 00:06:42,268 --> 00:06:44,908 Speaker 8: that hits his fan base in a fervor. Right now, 168 00:06:44,948 --> 00:06:46,428 Speaker 8: that's the Kenny Pickett experience. 169 00:06:46,508 --> 00:06:48,068 Speaker 7: Kenny Pickett entered nine. 170 00:06:47,908 --> 00:06:50,188 Speaker 8: Of eleven, four hundred and thirteen yards and two touchdowns. 171 00:06:50,308 --> 00:06:53,828 Speaker 8: Steelers absolutely dominated the Falcons. It was the Steelers ones 172 00:06:53,908 --> 00:06:55,948 Speaker 8: versus the Falcons twos that most dis pointing here early. 173 00:06:56,748 --> 00:06:59,188 Speaker 8: But our guy Cameron Wolfe was there and he spoke 174 00:06:59,228 --> 00:07:02,228 Speaker 8: with what might be the preseason MVP of the league. 175 00:07:02,228 --> 00:07:02,908 Speaker 7: Can he Pickett? 176 00:07:02,988 --> 00:07:03,028 Speaker 3: Go? 177 00:07:03,188 --> 00:07:05,628 Speaker 7: Wolf take it away, Kitty. 178 00:07:05,788 --> 00:07:08,388 Speaker 5: I know you've said it's just preseason, but how does 179 00:07:08,708 --> 00:07:11,028 Speaker 5: five drives five touchdowns sound free. 180 00:07:11,228 --> 00:07:12,748 Speaker 10: Yeah, it sounds like, you know, we did what we 181 00:07:12,788 --> 00:07:14,948 Speaker 10: wanted to do and you know, be successful, put points 182 00:07:14,948 --> 00:07:17,828 Speaker 10: on the board, had some explosive plays early on too tonight, 183 00:07:17,868 --> 00:07:19,788 Speaker 10: which was good, and finished the two touchdowns. 184 00:07:19,788 --> 00:07:20,468 Speaker 5: So overall, good. 185 00:07:20,428 --> 00:07:21,068 Speaker 7: Night, Kenny. 186 00:07:21,068 --> 00:07:22,988 Speaker 5: I know you've made clear of his preseason, but what 187 00:07:23,068 --> 00:07:24,988 Speaker 5: can you take out of what maybe you learn from 188 00:07:25,028 --> 00:07:27,548 Speaker 5: your team through camp through preseason as you go into 189 00:07:27,548 --> 00:07:27,948 Speaker 5: week one. 190 00:07:28,028 --> 00:07:29,788 Speaker 10: Yeah, all the work that we put in the spring, 191 00:07:29,908 --> 00:07:31,988 Speaker 10: it paid off. We came out here, we were successful, 192 00:07:32,388 --> 00:07:34,348 Speaker 10: we put points out, we were explosive, and that's all 193 00:07:34,348 --> 00:07:35,628 Speaker 10: we want to do and carry it over to the 194 00:07:35,668 --> 00:07:36,348 Speaker 10: regular season. 195 00:07:37,348 --> 00:07:39,068 Speaker 3: Well, regardless of what can you pick at things to 196 00:07:39,108 --> 00:07:41,708 Speaker 3: the preseason, Falcons clearly are like our guys are good. 197 00:07:41,748 --> 00:07:43,388 Speaker 3: We're not going to start them. As Peter mentioned, it 198 00:07:43,388 --> 00:07:45,668 Speaker 3: was ones against the twos for Steelers and Falcons. But 199 00:07:45,668 --> 00:07:47,388 Speaker 3: I don't think how that should take away from what 200 00:07:47,428 --> 00:07:48,628 Speaker 3: the Steelers did last night. 201 00:07:48,708 --> 00:07:51,068 Speaker 5: Oh not at all. I mean, you're actually goal there, 202 00:07:51,148 --> 00:07:52,668 Speaker 5: Mike Tomas said, you guys are playing. You go out 203 00:07:52,708 --> 00:07:54,668 Speaker 5: there and execute. You're going against the twos. Treat him 204 00:07:54,708 --> 00:07:57,628 Speaker 5: as that, and that's what the Pittsburgh Steelers did got 205 00:07:57,708 --> 00:07:59,148 Speaker 5: the ball straight down the field next to you know, 206 00:07:59,268 --> 00:08:01,668 Speaker 5: was fourteen to zero. And Kenny pick has been awesome. 207 00:08:01,868 --> 00:08:04,468 Speaker 5: George Pickens, though he said he feels that he's the 208 00:08:04,508 --> 00:08:07,268 Speaker 5: best receiver in the NFL. He has all the attributes. 209 00:08:07,348 --> 00:08:10,988 Speaker 5: Ninety nine speed, ninety nine catching, ninety nine blocking. Every 210 00:08:11,028 --> 00:08:13,668 Speaker 5: time we see this guy, he is making an amazing 211 00:08:14,188 --> 00:08:16,748 Speaker 5: catch and it is just fun to watch. And I've 212 00:08:16,748 --> 00:08:18,908 Speaker 5: seen people say, well, he doesn't get any separation. The 213 00:08:18,948 --> 00:08:22,388 Speaker 5: receiver's always draped on him. I don't care. He catches 214 00:08:22,428 --> 00:08:25,308 Speaker 5: the ball thirty yards down the field, DB's continue to 215 00:08:25,308 --> 00:08:27,308 Speaker 5: get up in the wave. Liams incomplete. There's no way 216 00:08:27,308 --> 00:08:28,708 Speaker 5: he called it. And then go back and you look 217 00:08:28,748 --> 00:08:30,508 Speaker 5: at it in his slow motion and it's just like, well, 218 00:08:30,588 --> 00:08:33,428 Speaker 5: feed her in, both, feed her in, toe, dragswag, nate, 219 00:08:33,468 --> 00:08:35,148 Speaker 5: shout out to him, whatever you want to call it. 220 00:08:35,148 --> 00:08:36,948 Speaker 5: It is pretty and it is fun to watch, and 221 00:08:36,988 --> 00:08:39,068 Speaker 5: he has a personality to match it. Can't wait to 222 00:08:39,068 --> 00:08:41,068 Speaker 5: see what this connection is going to continue to grow into. 223 00:08:41,348 --> 00:08:44,988 Speaker 6: Yeah, George is an animal, like if he was a wrestler. 224 00:08:46,548 --> 00:08:48,988 Speaker 6: He's got everything but the green tongue. I think when 225 00:08:49,028 --> 00:08:51,428 Speaker 6: you look at Kenny Pickett in the preseason. He has 226 00:08:51,508 --> 00:08:55,788 Speaker 6: had the preseason that every veteran quarterback and every veteran 227 00:08:55,828 --> 00:08:58,908 Speaker 6: player hopes to have. Like we go into the preseason, 228 00:08:58,908 --> 00:09:00,628 Speaker 6: everybody's like, hey, look, we're not gonna play a lot lot. 229 00:09:00,628 --> 00:09:02,308 Speaker 4: Maybe we get one series. We just hope it if 230 00:09:02,348 --> 00:09:02,948 Speaker 4: it's a good series. 231 00:09:02,988 --> 00:09:05,108 Speaker 6: If it's a seven play drive, teenplay driving a touchdown, 232 00:09:05,108 --> 00:09:07,068 Speaker 6: we're out. We're done for the night. That's what Kenny 233 00:09:07,068 --> 00:09:10,228 Speaker 6: Pickett did literally every game. It was a perfect passer writing. 234 00:09:10,228 --> 00:09:11,348 Speaker 6: I don't know that I've ever seen that in the 235 00:09:11,348 --> 00:09:12,868 Speaker 6: preseason and the preseason. 236 00:09:12,988 --> 00:09:14,868 Speaker 4: Look, it doesn't count, but it doesn't matter. 237 00:09:15,268 --> 00:09:17,428 Speaker 6: I mean that's a saying that every coach says in 238 00:09:17,468 --> 00:09:20,828 Speaker 6: every single training camp. I just if you're a Steeler 239 00:09:20,868 --> 00:09:23,028 Speaker 6: fan right now, how are you not giddy right now 240 00:09:23,148 --> 00:09:26,508 Speaker 6: with how Kenny Pickett has played? This time last year 241 00:09:26,548 --> 00:09:28,468 Speaker 6: we're talking about, Oh, I don't know, like he has 242 00:09:28,508 --> 00:09:30,148 Speaker 6: to wear gloves, Like does he have little hands? 243 00:09:30,188 --> 00:09:31,268 Speaker 4: Like what kind of quarterback? 244 00:09:31,308 --> 00:09:31,428 Speaker 6: Is he? 245 00:09:31,468 --> 00:09:31,828 Speaker 5: Going to be? 246 00:09:32,188 --> 00:09:33,268 Speaker 4: Different narrative now like. 247 00:09:33,228 --> 00:09:35,628 Speaker 6: This is the Steelers fans think they're the best team 248 00:09:35,628 --> 00:09:37,668 Speaker 6: in that division right now, Like there's no question about 249 00:09:37,708 --> 00:09:40,228 Speaker 6: it in their minds. And look, I think they have 250 00:09:40,268 --> 00:09:41,668 Speaker 6: a case right now with the way that he's playing. 251 00:09:41,788 --> 00:09:42,388 Speaker 7: I think it's. 252 00:09:42,188 --> 00:09:45,548 Speaker 8: Interesting what Mike Tomlin does here because if you're looking 253 00:09:45,548 --> 00:09:47,548 Speaker 8: at all thirty two teams, there's almost like thirty two 254 00:09:47,548 --> 00:09:50,628 Speaker 8: different strategies. Mike Timland played Kenny Pickett all three games. 255 00:09:50,748 --> 00:09:52,908 Speaker 8: Kenny Pickett came out there and, as Cam Wolfe said 256 00:09:52,948 --> 00:09:56,068 Speaker 8: in his interview, had five drives, scored five touchdowns. 257 00:09:56,108 --> 00:09:56,548 Speaker 7: They scored. 258 00:09:56,708 --> 00:09:59,068 Speaker 8: There is a confidence now in Pittsburgh where it's like, 259 00:09:59,068 --> 00:10:01,348 Speaker 8: all right, we're going in like we are already in motion. 260 00:10:01,428 --> 00:10:03,708 Speaker 8: There's a rhythm. Whoever we got week one, bring them 261 00:10:03,708 --> 00:10:06,308 Speaker 8: on because we're good. Look at the Rams. McVeigh doesn't 262 00:10:06,308 --> 00:10:09,668 Speaker 8: play any starters. They don't even consider having Stafford in 263 00:10:09,708 --> 00:10:12,068 Speaker 8: the game. And then you get to the actual NFL 264 00:10:12,108 --> 00:10:13,948 Speaker 8: season and then either they're fine or they're not fine. 265 00:10:14,228 --> 00:10:16,308 Speaker 8: Look if there was an injury last night, knock on wood, 266 00:10:16,388 --> 00:10:18,548 Speaker 8: Naji Harris goes down or someone goes down, like they 267 00:10:18,588 --> 00:10:20,828 Speaker 8: needd be crushing Mike Tomlin, why are they in this game? 268 00:10:20,908 --> 00:10:22,828 Speaker 8: But now that they've made it through the preseason, I 269 00:10:22,948 --> 00:10:25,628 Speaker 8: just look at Tomlin going with the ones and doing it. 270 00:10:26,108 --> 00:10:26,308 Speaker 11: T J. 271 00:10:26,428 --> 00:10:29,268 Speaker 7: Watts on the field like a sack with a sack. 272 00:10:29,068 --> 00:10:32,148 Speaker 8: And like, I don't know what this means when it 273 00:10:32,148 --> 00:10:34,748 Speaker 8: comes to November and December football, but I do know 274 00:10:34,788 --> 00:10:37,668 Speaker 8: that in August heading towards September, there's a lot of 275 00:10:37,668 --> 00:10:39,708 Speaker 8: buzz about Pickett right now, and there's a lot of 276 00:10:39,708 --> 00:10:41,948 Speaker 8: confidence in that building about Picket right now because we saw. 277 00:10:41,788 --> 00:10:44,388 Speaker 7: It in real games. So a young quarterback like Pickett. 278 00:10:44,388 --> 00:10:47,068 Speaker 8: I kind of commend Mike Tomlin for saying, I know 279 00:10:47,068 --> 00:10:48,668 Speaker 8: there could be an injury, and I know not everyone 280 00:10:48,708 --> 00:10:51,228 Speaker 8: does this, but look around the league. Mahomes plays a 281 00:10:51,268 --> 00:10:53,908 Speaker 8: half the other night, Russell Wilson's playing out there, and 282 00:10:53,948 --> 00:10:56,068 Speaker 8: in this case, Kenny Pickett's playing out there. Some coaches 283 00:10:56,108 --> 00:10:58,908 Speaker 8: like seeing these guys, and Tomlin's one of them, and 284 00:10:58,948 --> 00:11:00,588 Speaker 8: I think there is gonna be some positive to come 285 00:11:00,588 --> 00:11:02,988 Speaker 8: from it, as there's a confidence building in Pittsburgh. 286 00:11:03,028 --> 00:11:03,188 Speaker 1: You know. 287 00:11:03,188 --> 00:11:05,348 Speaker 3: I am glad we started the show with Anthony Richardson 288 00:11:05,348 --> 00:11:07,988 Speaker 3: and then Kenny Pickett because it lends itself to the 289 00:11:08,068 --> 00:11:10,948 Speaker 3: two sides of the argument of when you draft a 290 00:11:10,988 --> 00:11:13,028 Speaker 3: quarterback or when you have a rookie quarterback, do you 291 00:11:13,068 --> 00:11:16,068 Speaker 3: start him to start the season or do you wait? 292 00:11:16,388 --> 00:11:18,708 Speaker 3: Because that's what happened to Picket last year. Kyle picked 293 00:11:18,748 --> 00:11:21,108 Speaker 3: him as his offensive Rookie of the Year despite not 294 00:11:21,228 --> 00:11:24,028 Speaker 3: being QB one. Last year in Pittsburgh, it was miss Trubisky. 295 00:11:24,068 --> 00:11:25,588 Speaker 3: He got to wait four weeks. It's like being the 296 00:11:25,628 --> 00:11:27,868 Speaker 3: sixth man coming off a really good basketball team. You 297 00:11:27,868 --> 00:11:29,588 Speaker 3: get to see how the pace of play goes for 298 00:11:29,628 --> 00:11:30,868 Speaker 3: a game, and then you come in and you can 299 00:11:30,988 --> 00:11:33,308 Speaker 3: establish yourself and then you might be better when you 300 00:11:33,348 --> 00:11:35,868 Speaker 3: become a starter. Or do you have the Anthony Richardson 301 00:11:35,868 --> 00:11:37,948 Speaker 3: experience where like Yo, you're starting and you got to 302 00:11:37,948 --> 00:11:39,988 Speaker 3: figure it out on the fly. Everyone has their opinion 303 00:11:39,988 --> 00:11:41,948 Speaker 3: on it, but these are two great cases for how 304 00:11:41,988 --> 00:11:44,348 Speaker 3: a season should or could start for a young quarterback. 305 00:11:44,588 --> 00:11:46,708 Speaker 3: The final week of the preseason is underway, and we've 306 00:11:46,748 --> 00:11:49,428 Speaker 3: got plenty more tonight right here on an NFL network 307 00:11:49,588 --> 00:11:53,228 Speaker 3: eight fifteen pm.

We'll see how much we 312 00:12:03,228 --> 00:12:05,668 Speaker 3: see out of Aaron Rodgers. He makes his Jets debut 313 00:12:05,668 --> 00:12:07,308 Speaker 3: against the Giants. Shawn, you're gonna be at that game, 314 00:12:08,028 --> 00:12:10,988 Speaker 3: of course.

It seems like everyone's all right. 345 00:13:37,668 --> 00:13:40,148 Speaker 8: But we saw a side of Tua two days ago 346 00:13:40,348 --> 00:13:42,428 Speaker 8: in that press conference that I think we all kind 347 00:13:42,428 --> 00:13:45,068 Speaker 8: of liked.

He is bigger and thicker 350 00:13:50,148 --> 00:13:51,828 Speaker 8: than he was last year, but that's because he's trying 351 00:13:51,828 --> 00:13:53,668 Speaker 8: to protect himself from future injury. 352 00:13:53,988 --> 00:13:55,268 Speaker 5: Two was gonna be out there. 353 00:13:55,548 --> 00:13:58,708 Speaker 8: They're playing the Jaguars tomorrow night at seven pm Eastern. 354 00:13:58,748 --> 00:14:01,628 Speaker 8: That's an annual thing, Jags Dolphins, they end their seasons together, 355 00:14:02,268 --> 00:14:04,668 Speaker 8: and two is gonna go like we're putting two hour there. 356 00:14:04,668 --> 00:14:06,308 Speaker 8: It did not go well last week for him in 357 00:14:06,348 --> 00:14:07,948 Speaker 8: his first pass it through an interception. 358 00:14:08,228 --> 00:14:10,948 Speaker 7: People were snickering. I said this yesterday on the show. 359 00:14:10,988 --> 00:14:13,788 Speaker 8: I feel like Ta sometimes people just take shots at him, 360 00:14:13,788 --> 00:14:15,988 Speaker 8: take shots at him, take shots at him. I saw 361 00:14:15,988 --> 00:14:18,468 Speaker 8: a tweet online someone said, you know, someone has too 362 00:14:18,548 --> 00:14:21,228 Speaker 8: in his fantasy draft. Enjoy that for three weeks. At 363 00:14:21,228 --> 00:14:23,908 Speaker 8: some point two was like, it's not funny. It's not funny. 364 00:14:23,908 --> 00:14:26,628 Speaker 8: I'm an NFL quarterback. I've got a contract looming. And yes, 365 00:14:26,708 --> 00:14:29,028 Speaker 8: I had concussion issues last year. That's why I missed 366 00:14:29,068 --> 00:14:32,348 Speaker 8: some games. He's healthy, he's ready to go. And Tua, 367 00:14:32,868 --> 00:14:35,068 Speaker 8: who's going to be playing tomorrow night. Let's say Tua 368 00:14:35,508 --> 00:14:36,668 Speaker 8: against the Jaguars. 369 00:14:36,668 --> 00:14:37,988 Speaker 7: That's number five, number four. 370 00:14:38,948 --> 00:14:41,148 Speaker 8: We saw justin Fields in Week one and on the 371 00:14:41,148 --> 00:14:45,908 Speaker 8: first few plays it was touchdown, touchdown, DJ Moore Khalil Herbert, 372 00:14:45,948 --> 00:14:48,068 Speaker 8: and it was these little passes here. Then the guys 373 00:14:48,068 --> 00:14:50,308 Speaker 8: did the rest. This was a big play. Also the third. 374 00:14:50,068 --> 00:14:53,028 Speaker 7: Completion of his game. Here we go justin Fields. He's 375 00:14:53,028 --> 00:14:55,228 Speaker 7: playing again, and he's supposed to go, and we're not 376 00:14:55,268 --> 00:14:55,828 Speaker 7: sure how long. 377 00:14:55,828 --> 00:14:57,708 Speaker 8: Is gonna go, whether it's a quarter or a second quarter, 378 00:14:57,788 --> 00:15:00,468 Speaker 8: or it's the third quarter, how long he plays. But 379 00:15:00,508 --> 00:15:03,988 Speaker 8: they're playing the Bills tomorrow at one pm Eastern, and 380 00:15:03,988 --> 00:15:05,748 Speaker 8: I want to say Fields can pick up where he 381 00:15:05,828 --> 00:15:08,548 Speaker 8: left off in this preseason debut where it was like 382 00:15:09,108 --> 00:15:14,188 Speaker 8: little pass touchdown, longer pass touchdown. He's two for two 383 00:15:14,228 --> 00:15:16,468 Speaker 8: two touchdowns on this one. He had a third pass also, 384 00:15:16,788 --> 00:15:18,788 Speaker 8: But let's see what else we get from Justin Fields. 385 00:15:19,068 --> 00:15:21,668 Speaker 8: Kind of want to see what Luke Getzi's offense looks 386 00:15:21,708 --> 00:15:24,788 Speaker 8: like beyond just run the ball with Fields run the 387 00:15:24,788 --> 00:15:26,788 Speaker 8: ball fields last year and whether it was because of 388 00:15:26,828 --> 00:15:30,148 Speaker 8: injuries or because he didn't trust the receivers because things 389 00:15:30,228 --> 00:15:33,028 Speaker 8: collapse with the defensive line. Justin Fields ran for a 390 00:15:33,028 --> 00:15:35,828 Speaker 8: lot of yards, but he didn't throw for a ton 391 00:15:35,828 --> 00:15:37,948 Speaker 8: of yards. I'd like to see more throwing in the 392 00:15:37,948 --> 00:15:39,868 Speaker 8: offense if possible. Maybe we see a glimpse of that 393 00:15:40,588 --> 00:15:43,708 Speaker 8: in preseason game number three, number three. 394 00:15:44,068 --> 00:15:45,108 Speaker 7: Similar kind of deal. 395 00:15:46,108 --> 00:15:48,988 Speaker 8: Hit me baby one more time with this guy, Jordan Love, 396 00:15:49,588 --> 00:15:52,028 Speaker 8: he's gonna be playing, and Matt Lafleur said it, you know, 397 00:15:52,068 --> 00:15:54,508 Speaker 8: Mat laflor revealed yes to do that. Sean Clifford is 398 00:15:54,588 --> 00:15:57,788 Speaker 8: likely going to be the number two. That's a very 399 00:15:57,908 --> 00:16:01,268 Speaker 8: young quarterback room, and that is a very interesting deal 400 00:16:01,308 --> 00:16:03,148 Speaker 8: if you're gonna have Jordan Love out there. He threw 401 00:16:03,188 --> 00:16:06,708 Speaker 8: this beauty of a pass before this preseason game was 402 00:16:06,708 --> 00:16:09,108 Speaker 8: shut down. Jordan Love looked like he was in rhythm, 403 00:16:09,188 --> 00:16:10,908 Speaker 8: he was in motion, and then the game was cut short. 404 00:16:10,948 --> 00:16:13,868 Speaker 8: I would like to see it again and again and again. 405 00:16:14,388 --> 00:16:16,428 Speaker 8: The Packers play the Seahawks tomorrow. 406 00:16:16,428 --> 00:16:19,508 Speaker 7: It's one pm Eastern. You gotta put that one on. 407 00:16:19,588 --> 00:16:20,148 Speaker 5: You'll watch that. 408 00:16:20,188 --> 00:16:22,748 Speaker 8: It's in Green Bay. It'll be a beautiful morning. Have 409 00:16:22,828 --> 00:16:24,868 Speaker 8: it on, and let's see more of Jordan Love. He 410 00:16:24,988 --> 00:16:28,308 Speaker 8: is the man right now. Obviously we know Rodgers is gone, 411 00:16:28,308 --> 00:16:30,908 Speaker 8: and we've done Good Morning Football Show. 412 00:16:30,788 --> 00:16:32,868 Speaker 7: Every day in August based on Aaron Rodgers. 413 00:16:33,388 --> 00:16:35,588 Speaker 8: For this one segment, I'm gonna give three minutes or 414 00:16:35,628 --> 00:16:36,948 Speaker 8: three seconds to Jordan Love. 415 00:16:37,028 --> 00:16:39,788 Speaker 7: So Jordan Love, he's the guy who's coming in.

I don't have any other references. 420 00:16:49,788 --> 00:16:53,588 Speaker 8: Number two, number two, So we were just told you 421 00:16:54,188 --> 00:16:56,228 Speaker 8: three doesn't mean you're not playing in the preseason. 422 00:16:56,268 --> 00:16:59,428 Speaker 7: If anything, it means more time in the preseason. Trey Lance, 423 00:16:59,788 --> 00:17:02,668 Speaker 7: what do you got like? That was embarrassing? 424 00:17:03,468 --> 00:17:06,748 Speaker 8: On many cases you'd say it was an insulting and 425 00:17:06,788 --> 00:17:09,548 Speaker 8: in a lot of ways you'd say, gosh, if only 426 00:17:09,548 --> 00:17:11,988 Speaker 8: I had a chance to prove myself instead of being third, 427 00:17:12,268 --> 00:17:12,508 Speaker 8: you do. 428 00:17:12,508 --> 00:17:13,548 Speaker 7: Have a chance to prove yourself. 429 00:17:13,548 --> 00:17:15,668 Speaker 8: Go out there to worrow ball out like Trey, go 430 00:17:15,708 --> 00:17:17,108 Speaker 8: out there and have a huge game. 431 00:17:17,548 --> 00:17:20,028 Speaker 7: I know it's the preseason, but you're gonna play.

How could you 442 00:17:41,228 --> 00:17:43,428 Speaker 8: say that he hasn't had the opportunity to play. It's 443 00:17:43,508 --> 00:17:45,788 Speaker 8: just a matter of circumstance. They've got their guy in Purty. 444 00:17:46,188 --> 00:17:48,588 Speaker 8: He will be playing tonight, and let's see what Trey 445 00:17:48,668 --> 00:17:50,828 Speaker 8: Lance has he missed practiced yesterday.

I know 474 00:18:56,228 --> 00:18:58,508 Speaker 8: he would appreciate that one. But Aaron Rodgers is gonna 475 00:18:58,508 --> 00:19:01,148 Speaker 8: play behind the offensive line that there's questions about and 476 00:19:01,468 --> 00:19:02,788 Speaker 8: uh with young receivers. 477 00:19:02,788 --> 00:19:04,188 Speaker 7: So we'll see Aaron. 478 00:19:03,988 --> 00:19:06,188 Speaker 8: Rodgers first action as a jet Trey Lance back on 479 00:19:06,228 --> 00:19:09,748 Speaker 8: the horse Jordan Love one more time, Justin Field's encore. 480 00:19:09,508 --> 00:19:12,108 Speaker 7: And then my guy salty to it like, huh, what. 481 00:19:12,028 --> 00:19:14,268 Speaker 5: Do you guys got h I love it salty too. 482 00:19:14,388 --> 00:19:15,708 Speaker 5: There was a clip of him on the bench and 483 00:19:15,708 --> 00:19:18,508 Speaker 5: he looks salty on that one number two Trey Lance. 484 00:19:18,548 --> 00:19:20,588 Speaker 5: I think for him to be that high of a 485 00:19:20,668 --> 00:19:23,508 Speaker 5: draft pick, news hit that you're now the third string quarterback. 486 00:19:23,668 --> 00:19:25,748 Speaker 5: And to your point, usually when that happens, news your 487 00:19:25,828 --> 00:19:28,188 Speaker 5: thirstring quarterback.

They traded Isaiah 556 00:21:53,948 --> 00:21:56,268 Speaker 8: Simmons to the Giants for a seventh round pick. They 557 00:21:56,268 --> 00:21:59,948 Speaker 8: get Josh Dobbs from the Browns for a fifth round pick, 558 00:21:59,988 --> 00:22:02,188 Speaker 8: they trade a seven, and they also traded their offensive 559 00:22:02,188 --> 00:22:05,668 Speaker 8: limon who started eleven games last year, Josh Jones, to 560 00:22:05,708 --> 00:22:08,268 Speaker 8: the Texans. So three moves in a flurry in the 561 00:22:08,268 --> 00:22:11,548 Speaker 8: final week of preseason. And we don't know when Kyler's 562 00:22:11,588 --> 00:22:14,868 Speaker 8: coming back. We know DeAndre Hopkins isn't there, we know 563 00:22:14,988 --> 00:22:17,868 Speaker 8: JJ Watts retired, and we know we haven't mentioned the 564 00:22:17,908 --> 00:22:20,628 Speaker 8: Arizona Cardinals on this show for the record forty eight 565 00:22:20,668 --> 00:22:21,388 Speaker 8: straight days. 566 00:22:21,468 --> 00:22:22,588 Speaker 7: So here's the statement. 567 00:22:22,788 --> 00:22:26,108 Speaker 8: The Arizona Cardinals are the biggest long shot to win 568 00:22:26,228 --> 00:22:28,148 Speaker 8: their division this year in the NFL. 569 00:22:28,228 --> 00:22:29,148 Speaker 7: Are we in or. 570 00:22:29,108 --> 00:22:29,548 Speaker 5: Are we at? 571 00:22:29,588 --> 00:22:31,508 Speaker 7: We always talk about the best teams? Are they the 572 00:22:31,508 --> 00:22:32,028 Speaker 7: thirty two? 573 00:22:32,668 --> 00:22:34,508 Speaker 5: If one of you guys are out on this, I 574 00:22:34,548 --> 00:22:36,908 Speaker 5: can't wait to hear what your reason is. I am 575 00:22:37,188 --> 00:22:40,028 Speaker 5: definitely in. They are the biggest long shot all of 576 00:22:40,028 --> 00:22:41,908 Speaker 5: those trades you said. I remember I used to go 577 00:22:41,908 --> 00:22:43,668 Speaker 5: to this toy store when I was a kid and 578 00:22:43,708 --> 00:22:45,788 Speaker 5: they had this drafte and want to be a nooys 579 00:22:45,908 --> 00:22:47,988 Speaker 5: or you know this this and they went out of 580 00:22:48,388 --> 00:22:49,308 Speaker 5: bad of business and it. 581 00:22:49,308 --> 00:22:50,948 Speaker 4: Was like everything was for sale. 582 00:22:51,188 --> 00:22:53,708 Speaker 5: And that was Arizona Cardinals yesterday. It was just like, 583 00:22:53,788 --> 00:22:55,828 Speaker 5: you know what, trade this person, trade that person. Let's 584 00:22:55,908 --> 00:22:57,988 Speaker 5: let's just get out in front of this entire thing. 585 00:22:58,348 --> 00:23:00,508 Speaker 5: And to that point, Joshua Dobbs coming in, I guess 586 00:23:00,548 --> 00:23:03,268 Speaker 5: last year the Titans brought him Mandy he played right away. 587 00:23:03,508 --> 00:23:05,828 Speaker 5: Joshua Dobbs might be rolling out there a week one 588 00:23:05,868 --> 00:23:08,428 Speaker 5: in their first game. He could be their starting Quarterback's 589 00:23:08,548 --> 00:23:11,708 Speaker 5: insane to see. But Arizona Cardinals, I was with Monty 590 00:23:11,708 --> 00:23:13,548 Speaker 5: Austin for a full Monty that was a pretty good one. 591 00:23:13,868 --> 00:23:16,908 Speaker 5: The general manager there. And there's a strategy somewhere in this, 592 00:23:16,988 --> 00:23:19,148 Speaker 5: and I think we look up seven months from now, 593 00:23:19,228 --> 00:23:21,508 Speaker 5: we may be able to decide what that strategy was. 594 00:23:21,548 --> 00:23:24,148 Speaker 5: When they're drafting first overall, I was gonna go out 595 00:23:24,188 --> 00:23:24,508 Speaker 5: on it. 596 00:23:24,588 --> 00:23:27,308 Speaker 3: I was really tru I was looking at my I'm 597 00:23:27,348 --> 00:23:30,428 Speaker 3: looking at my prediction week predictions right now, and I'm 598 00:23:30,428 --> 00:23:32,228 Speaker 3: really looking at the divisions and I'm like, I think 599 00:23:32,268 --> 00:23:35,228 Speaker 3: I could try to make an argument for the AFC West. Okay, Like, 600 00:23:35,428 --> 00:23:36,908 Speaker 3: this is a super Bowl. You have the super Bowl 601 00:23:36,948 --> 00:23:40,308 Speaker 3: winner in it. The Raiders fell on their faces last year. 602 00:23:40,868 --> 00:23:42,388 Speaker 3: We don't know what they're getting. They don't have their 603 00:23:42,588 --> 00:23:44,468 Speaker 3: running back coming back just yet. We don't know what 604 00:23:44,508 --> 00:23:46,868 Speaker 3: the Josh Jacobs situation is. We don't know if Josh 605 00:23:46,908 --> 00:23:49,548 Speaker 3: McDaniels can put a team together and win flat out 606 00:23:49,588 --> 00:23:52,148 Speaker 3: every week in that division. Your division won the Super 607 00:23:52,148 --> 00:23:54,388 Speaker 3: Bowl last year. Frankly, the Broncos, we're not sure what 608 00:23:54,428 --> 00:23:56,268 Speaker 3: they're trapsing out either. I don't know who it would be, 609 00:23:56,468 --> 00:23:57,948 Speaker 3: but I'm gonna I'm gonna be out on it. And 610 00:23:57,948 --> 00:23:59,988 Speaker 3: I'm want to say the AFC West is the longer 611 00:23:59,988 --> 00:24:01,788 Speaker 3: shot only because of the team that's at the top. 612 00:24:01,868 --> 00:24:04,148 Speaker 5: So you think they might have the Cardinals have a 613 00:24:04,188 --> 00:24:07,588 Speaker 5: bet shot of outlasting the forty nine ers. Possibly, No, 614 00:24:07,668 --> 00:24:08,908 Speaker 5: that's not that is the statement. 615 00:24:08,948 --> 00:24:10,588 Speaker 8: Okay, Yeah, sure, and one of those teams beat the 616 00:24:10,628 --> 00:24:12,788 Speaker 8: Chiefs and that's a fair way to interpret, no doubt 617 00:24:12,828 --> 00:24:13,188 Speaker 8: about it. 618 00:24:13,268 --> 00:24:14,308 Speaker 5: Yes, all right, that's good. 619 00:24:14,468 --> 00:24:16,028 Speaker 4: That's a good quandary right there. 620 00:24:16,668 --> 00:24:18,748 Speaker 6: I'm with you though, like it does feel like the 621 00:24:18,828 --> 00:24:20,708 Speaker 6: towards r Us Sale right there, and I feel like 622 00:24:20,828 --> 00:24:21,508 Speaker 6: I'm the guy. 623 00:24:21,428 --> 00:24:22,748 Speaker 7: Out way to mention the brand. 624 00:24:23,628 --> 00:24:25,348 Speaker 4: I'm doing it. Yeah, I'm doing it. 625 00:24:25,388 --> 00:24:28,428 Speaker 6: I shout out I still some Jeffrey money and my 626 00:24:28,548 --> 00:24:30,828 Speaker 6: shout out to the Goat, but I'm looking to spend 627 00:24:31,068 --> 00:24:33,908 Speaker 6: I think to your point, when I look through the division, Jamie, Yeah, 628 00:24:34,028 --> 00:24:36,868 Speaker 6: like it's not just that Arizona is this unknown right now, 629 00:24:36,908 --> 00:24:38,668 Speaker 6: Like we don't know who the quarterback is, we don't 630 00:24:38,668 --> 00:24:40,028 Speaker 6: know what kind of offense they're going to be, we 631 00:24:40,228 --> 00:24:42,428 Speaker 6: don't know what their identity is. I feel like the 632 00:24:42,428 --> 00:24:45,068 Speaker 6: rest of that division, even with Kyler Murray, even if 633 00:24:45,068 --> 00:24:46,828 Speaker 6: he was playing Week one, I would still say they're 634 00:24:46,828 --> 00:24:49,388 Speaker 6: a long shot to win that division because the division 635 00:24:49,428 --> 00:24:50,108 Speaker 6: has gotten. 636 00:24:49,828 --> 00:24:50,428 Speaker 4: So much better. 637 00:24:50,908 --> 00:24:53,548 Speaker 6: And I feel like with rock perty back now, like, look, 638 00:24:53,588 --> 00:24:55,188 Speaker 6: the Niners might be one of the best teams in 639 00:24:55,188 --> 00:24:57,068 Speaker 6: the NFC. I think it's Niners and Eagles right now 640 00:24:57,508 --> 00:24:59,948 Speaker 6: as the two team best teams in the UNFC. When 641 00:24:59,988 --> 00:25:02,508 Speaker 6: I look at Seattle right now, I think Seattle and 642 00:25:02,548 --> 00:25:06,148 Speaker 6: the Rams are light years ahead of Arizona. So it's 643 00:25:06,188 --> 00:25:08,668 Speaker 6: not even just the Kyler Murray question, it's or the 644 00:25:08,748 --> 00:25:11,108 Speaker 6: quarterback question. It's I think the teams in the NFC 645 00:25:11,188 --> 00:25:13,948 Speaker 6: West are that much better that this could be a 646 00:25:14,028 --> 00:25:14,708 Speaker 6: very long season. 647 00:25:14,788 --> 00:25:15,748 Speaker 5: I will say this. 648 00:25:16,788 --> 00:25:20,228 Speaker 8: Twenty eleven, I want to say forty nine Ers hired 649 00:25:20,268 --> 00:25:23,308 Speaker 8: Jim Harbaugh and Andrew Luck was still in college, and 650 00:25:23,468 --> 00:25:25,188 Speaker 8: everyone said they was going to be sucked for Luck 651 00:25:25,228 --> 00:25:27,668 Speaker 8: in San Francisco and then they're gonna just get Ford. 652 00:25:27,748 --> 00:25:29,868 Speaker 7: Niners went to like the NFC championship game that year. 653 00:25:29,908 --> 00:25:30,548 Speaker 7: We never know. 654 00:25:30,708 --> 00:25:33,308 Speaker 8: In the NFL, I don't think anyone saw the Jaguars 655 00:25:33,308 --> 00:25:35,228 Speaker 8: going to the AFC championship game when they played the 656 00:25:35,228 --> 00:25:36,668 Speaker 8: Patriots in twenty seventeen. 657 00:25:36,748 --> 00:25:37,308 Speaker 7: We never know. 658 00:25:37,868 --> 00:25:40,388 Speaker 8: And yet I am also in on this one. I 659 00:25:40,468 --> 00:25:42,908 Speaker 8: just don't see the talent. And i'd such a young 660 00:25:42,948 --> 00:25:45,788 Speaker 8: coaching staff, first year GM, first year head coach, first 661 00:25:45,868 --> 00:25:48,988 Speaker 8: year defensive coordinator, first year offensive coordinator, and trading away 662 00:25:49,028 --> 00:25:51,468 Speaker 8: some players that I think the last regime thought could 663 00:25:51,468 --> 00:25:52,308 Speaker 8: have been part of the corps. 664 00:25:52,348 --> 00:25:53,028 Speaker 7: I just don't see it. 665 00:25:53,028 --> 00:25:58,068 Speaker 8: For the Cardinals. In the Cards, this is my puns 666 00:25:58,148 --> 00:26:03,188 Speaker 8: are incredible. Friday, Yeah, really quickly Isaiah Simmons traded to 667 00:26:03,228 --> 00:26:05,788 Speaker 8: the Giants. You cover the Giants, you're there all the time. 668 00:26:05,868 --> 00:26:08,188 Speaker 8: As a former Giant, I said a comment on Twitter 669 00:26:08,188 --> 00:26:09,348 Speaker 8: that I got crushed by Giants fans. 670 00:26:09,428 --> 00:26:10,828 Speaker 7: Or'm like, slow down, he's not Lawrence Taylor. 671 00:26:10,868 --> 00:26:12,828 Speaker 8: I'll just say this, Isaiah Simmons was traded for a 672 00:26:12,868 --> 00:26:15,148 Speaker 8: seventh round pick. And when you're traded for a seventh 673 00:26:15,228 --> 00:26:17,388 Speaker 8: round pick doesn't mean that like you call one team 674 00:26:17,628 --> 00:26:19,708 Speaker 8: and you're like, can we do this? It means you 675 00:26:19,748 --> 00:26:21,308 Speaker 8: shopped him to the entire league and the best you 676 00:26:21,308 --> 00:26:23,108 Speaker 8: could get with a seventh round pick. It did not 677 00:26:23,228 --> 00:26:26,068 Speaker 8: work in Arizona for many reasons. What is your feeling 678 00:26:26,068 --> 00:26:28,548 Speaker 8: on Isaiah Simmons as a Giant, especially in Wink Martin 679 00:26:28,588 --> 00:26:31,428 Speaker 8: Dale's defense where Wink loves to do the positionless player. 680 00:26:31,548 --> 00:26:32,988 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's going to be a great fit 681 00:26:33,028 --> 00:26:35,588 Speaker 6: for him, and I mean maybe I'm just being optimistic 682 00:26:35,668 --> 00:26:37,428 Speaker 6: and it has nothing to do with the fact that 683 00:26:37,468 --> 00:26:40,028 Speaker 6: it's the Giants. I think you put Isaiah Simmons with 684 00:26:40,028 --> 00:26:41,748 Speaker 6: any other defensive corner, they're going to find a way 685 00:26:42,188 --> 00:26:43,548 Speaker 6: for him to get on the field and make an impact. 686 00:26:43,748 --> 00:26:45,148 Speaker 6: To me, the thing I can't wrap my head around 687 00:26:45,228 --> 00:26:46,868 Speaker 6: him is that people are still calling him a safety, 688 00:26:46,908 --> 00:26:48,548 Speaker 6: like they listened to him as a safety. 689 00:26:48,228 --> 00:26:49,188 Speaker 4: Like this dude is. 690 00:26:49,228 --> 00:26:51,388 Speaker 6: If this dude is not attacking the quarterback and if 691 00:26:51,428 --> 00:26:54,348 Speaker 6: he's not downhill as a linebacker, then you're doing it wrong. 692 00:26:55,308 --> 00:26:59,668 Speaker 6: He's an unbelievable athlete. He's got great football skills. I 693 00:26:59,668 --> 00:27:01,468 Speaker 6: think Wig Bartindell is going to find a great a 694 00:27:01,508 --> 00:27:03,748 Speaker 6: position for him. And look, even if it could just 695 00:27:03,748 --> 00:27:06,428 Speaker 6: be third down, the game right now is all nickel 696 00:27:06,708 --> 00:27:09,428 Speaker 6: defensive packages, so you have your best pass rusus out 697 00:27:09,428 --> 00:27:12,548 Speaker 6: there and your most athletic linebackers. He can do both 698 00:27:12,548 --> 00:27:14,828 Speaker 6: of that. So I think for the Giants, they've been 699 00:27:14,828 --> 00:27:17,308 Speaker 6: looking for somebody to be next to Bobbiokake when they 700 00:27:17,308 --> 00:27:19,588 Speaker 6: go in their two linebackers set. He could be that guy. 701 00:27:19,708 --> 00:27:21,348 Speaker 6: I mean, and if you're worried about coverage on a 702 00:27:21,348 --> 00:27:22,428 Speaker 6: guy like him, you blitz him. 703 00:27:22,468 --> 00:27:22,948 Speaker 4: That's what you do. 704 00:27:23,068 --> 00:27:25,148 Speaker 5: And I think to that point, Schruger at mentality. When 705 00:27:25,188 --> 00:27:28,148 Speaker 5: you're a top ten pick in Arizona, if you're Isaiah Simmons, 706 00:27:28,148 --> 00:27:32,388 Speaker 5: you walk in and there's this expectation from people around you, yes, 707 00:27:32,508 --> 00:27:34,428 Speaker 5: and there's an expectation from yourself. And he was this 708 00:27:34,508 --> 00:27:36,868 Speaker 5: positionless player in the NFL. You need a position we 709 00:27:36,908 --> 00:27:38,628 Speaker 5: need to know what meeting room will sending you to 710 00:27:38,988 --> 00:27:40,868 Speaker 5: and the whole nine. When he shows up for the 711 00:27:40,908 --> 00:27:42,828 Speaker 5: New York Giants. To your point, you were just traded 712 00:27:42,828 --> 00:27:45,508 Speaker 5: for a seventh round draft pick, So any entitlement and 713 00:27:45,548 --> 00:27:47,308 Speaker 5: I'm not saying I don't know, Isaiah Simmons that you 714 00:27:47,348 --> 00:27:50,148 Speaker 5: could have possibly had in Arizona. You're walking into the 715 00:27:50,188 --> 00:27:51,948 Speaker 5: New York Giants. You're just like, all, I got to 716 00:27:51,988 --> 00:27:54,428 Speaker 5: revive my career what I can become and kind of 717 00:27:54,428 --> 00:27:57,548 Speaker 5: blossom into. So if in Arizona maybe he wanted to 718 00:27:57,548 --> 00:27:59,548 Speaker 5: play dB, I don't know what the case might have been. 719 00:27:59,708 --> 00:28:01,788 Speaker 5: When you show up to the Giants, coach, what position 720 00:28:01,788 --> 00:28:03,068 Speaker 5: you want me to play? All right, we're gonna have 721 00:28:03,068 --> 00:28:03,988 Speaker 5: you rushing the pass? All right? 722 00:28:03,988 --> 00:28:04,108 Speaker 7: Cool? 723 00:28:04,148 --> 00:28:05,788 Speaker 5: You need me to play linebacker? I can do that too, 724 00:28:05,828 --> 00:28:08,308 Speaker 5: whatever you need. So I think from a mentality standpoint, 725 00:28:08,308 --> 00:28:10,908 Speaker 5: he has a chance to maybe perform better because now 726 00:28:10,948 --> 00:28:14,068 Speaker 5: you're hungry because all the doubters are out there. People 727 00:28:14,068 --> 00:28:16,068 Speaker 5: are saying, all right, theydn't just get Lawrence taylorst. So 728 00:28:16,108 --> 00:28:17,428 Speaker 5: now it's up to you to go out there and 729 00:28:17,468 --> 00:28:19,548 Speaker 5: really show, you know, what I was worth that top 730 00:28:19,588 --> 00:28:22,068 Speaker 5: ten pick. They just weren't using my talents to correct life. 731 00:28:22,628 --> 00:28:24,748 Speaker 5: So good, I'm in on that segment. 732 00:28:24,788 --> 00:28:26,908 Speaker 3: Always well done, Peter, I'm more Good Morning Football for 733 00:28:26,988 --> 00:28:27,628 Speaker 3: this good. 734 00:28:27,548 --> 00:28:40,908 Speaker 2: Draw, Good Morning Football. 735 00:28:42,108 --> 00:28:45,468 Speaker 5: Back on Good Morning Football.

Can't wait? What do you miss most 744 00:29:08,548 --> 00:29:09,988 Speaker 5: about your time back there on the field? 745 00:29:09,988 --> 00:29:13,828 Speaker 11: PlayN You know, I think it's really all about for 746 00:29:13,988 --> 00:29:17,188 Speaker 11: us at this time of year, just that camaraderie. Right 747 00:29:17,268 --> 00:29:20,228 Speaker 11: you get into camp, things are tough. Everybody's competing for 748 00:29:20,268 --> 00:29:23,468 Speaker 11: a position. You know, you're watching guys get cut, although 749 00:29:23,468 --> 00:29:25,348 Speaker 11: the cuts are a little bit different now than what 750 00:29:25,388 --> 00:29:27,588 Speaker 11: they used to be. But this is the time of 751 00:29:27,628 --> 00:29:29,548 Speaker 11: year where you kind of sit back and you go, hey, 752 00:29:29,588 --> 00:29:32,508 Speaker 11: I survived another one. I made it to the roster, 753 00:29:32,988 --> 00:29:35,348 Speaker 11: and now let's go play football. Because I think it's 754 00:29:35,748 --> 00:29:38,268 Speaker 11: it's we're done with the practice stuff. Let's go see 755 00:29:38,268 --> 00:29:40,068 Speaker 11: what it's like for real. That's what you're starting to 756 00:29:40,108 --> 00:29:41,188 Speaker 11: feel at this time of year. 757 00:29:41,348 --> 00:29:41,548 Speaker 7: Matt. 758 00:29:41,588 --> 00:29:44,268 Speaker 8: You spent your entire playing career for those Patriots, and 759 00:29:44,388 --> 00:29:47,508 Speaker 8: during that time you played not only under Bill Belichick, 760 00:29:47,548 --> 00:29:48,628 Speaker 8: we got some experience. 761 00:29:48,308 --> 00:29:49,188 Speaker 7: Under Bill O'Brien. 762 00:29:49,268 --> 00:29:51,268 Speaker 8: So he's back in New England, and I think Patriots 763 00:29:51,348 --> 00:29:54,108 Speaker 8: fans are excited but also interested to see what this 764 00:29:54,188 --> 00:29:57,028 Speaker 8: offense could be. Take us behind the curtain. What does 765 00:29:57,028 --> 00:30:00,228 Speaker 8: a Bill O'Brien offense look like? That might be different 766 00:30:00,228 --> 00:30:02,108 Speaker 8: than what we saw the last few years in New England. 767 00:30:02,228 --> 00:30:04,908 Speaker 11: Hey, look, I think number one, when you're a player 768 00:30:04,908 --> 00:30:06,788 Speaker 11: in a system and you have a guy like Billy 769 00:30:06,828 --> 00:30:11,308 Speaker 11: oh coaching you, you have a fiery, red face into 770 00:30:11,388 --> 00:30:14,348 Speaker 11: it kind of guy. I mean, he takes everything personal. 771 00:30:14,468 --> 00:30:16,788 Speaker 11: He likes the chess match. I think he's a great 772 00:30:17,228 --> 00:30:20,508 Speaker 11: play caller. I think his openers, you know, will give 773 00:30:20,548 --> 00:30:22,428 Speaker 11: these guys a lot of comfort. He's going to go 774 00:30:22,508 --> 00:30:25,708 Speaker 11: to these linemen and the receivers and the quarterback. He's 775 00:30:25,748 --> 00:30:28,708 Speaker 11: gonna make sure everybody feels confident when they go out 776 00:30:28,708 --> 00:30:31,868 Speaker 11: there to really start the game. I don't think that 777 00:30:31,908 --> 00:30:34,828 Speaker 11: the guys felt as confident last year as they will 778 00:30:34,948 --> 00:30:37,548 Speaker 11: this year. But Billy Oh is a fireball. I mean, 779 00:30:37,628 --> 00:30:40,068 Speaker 11: that's what I loved about him. You know, he's in 780 00:30:40,148 --> 00:30:41,308 Speaker 11: it every single day. 781 00:30:41,708 --> 00:30:44,748 Speaker 3: Matt, you played with two Hall of Fame quarterbacks in 782 00:30:44,788 --> 00:30:47,628 Speaker 3: your career. Now, don't get a twisted We know it 783 00:30:47,628 --> 00:30:49,548 Speaker 3: was Tom Brady for the eleven seasons that you were 784 00:30:49,548 --> 00:30:52,348 Speaker 3: in Foxborough, but you also and Drew Brees when you 785 00:30:52,388 --> 00:30:56,708 Speaker 3: played at Purdue in college College Football Week zero starting 786 00:30:56,708 --> 00:30:58,708 Speaker 3: this weekend. If you had to go back in time 787 00:30:58,788 --> 00:31:01,268 Speaker 3: and play any level of football over again, whether it 788 00:31:01,268 --> 00:31:03,188 Speaker 3: be Pee Wee high school, I don't know. If you 789 00:31:03,188 --> 00:31:04,988 Speaker 3: were a flag football guy back in the day, what 790 00:31:05,108 --> 00:31:07,428 Speaker 3: would you choose to read you in your college football 791 00:31:07,428 --> 00:31:08,028 Speaker 3: playing days. 792 00:31:08,508 --> 00:31:09,748 Speaker 9: Wow, you know it's. 793 00:31:09,628 --> 00:31:14,428 Speaker 11: A hard call each each moment in a football player's career. 794 00:31:14,628 --> 00:31:16,948 Speaker 11: I guess you could call it even if you never 795 00:31:16,988 --> 00:31:18,908 Speaker 11: made it out of high school. There's so many different 796 00:31:18,988 --> 00:31:23,068 Speaker 11: nuances about Pee Wee versus middle school versus high school. 797 00:31:23,108 --> 00:31:25,508 Speaker 11: But I think the best era for me would have 798 00:31:25,548 --> 00:31:27,348 Speaker 11: been the college days. You know, I got to play 799 00:31:27,388 --> 00:31:30,388 Speaker 11: with so many great guys. Our offensive line, you know, 800 00:31:30,468 --> 00:31:33,188 Speaker 11: we had a lot of fun together. We're blocking for 801 00:31:33,228 --> 00:31:35,948 Speaker 11: a guy and Drew Brees, who everybody loved to be around. 802 00:31:36,028 --> 00:31:39,428 Speaker 11: And look when your two quarterbacks when you leave high school, 803 00:31:39,548 --> 00:31:41,668 Speaker 11: Drew Brees and Tom Brady, you could be the worst 804 00:31:41,748 --> 00:31:43,468 Speaker 11: left tackle in the world. They're going to make you 805 00:31:43,548 --> 00:31:45,908 Speaker 11: look good. So all of it was good. But I'd 806 00:31:45,948 --> 00:31:47,148 Speaker 11: go back to college. 807 00:31:47,468 --> 00:31:50,308 Speaker 6: Oh, back to college. That would be scary. I spent 808 00:31:50,388 --> 00:31:51,708 Speaker 6: a lot of time with you, Matt. It's great to 809 00:31:51,748 --> 00:31:56,108 Speaker 6: see you again. You and college would be like I 810 00:31:56,108 --> 00:31:59,668 Speaker 6: feel like times too. The amount of trouble that you've 811 00:31:59,708 --> 00:32:03,068 Speaker 6: caused throughout your career. I feel like nobody has a 812 00:32:03,068 --> 00:32:05,908 Speaker 6: better prankster than you.
