I am Shery Burris. 8 00:00:36,908 --> 00:00:39,308 Speaker 3: That is our good friend Peter Schrager and Shregs. It 9 00:00:39,348 --> 00:00:42,868 Speaker 3: is an exciting night because we are starting finally week 10 00:00:42,948 --> 00:00:44,828 Speaker 3: eight here Thursday in Los Angeles. 11 00:00:45,308 --> 00:00:47,828 Speaker 4: We got a game tonight on Amazon that is going 12 00:00:47,868 --> 00:00:49,668 Speaker 4: to be between the Vikings and the Rams, and there's 13 00:00:49,708 --> 00:00:52,468 Speaker 4: a certain sense of urgency for both teams. The Vikings 14 00:00:52,468 --> 00:00:55,668 Speaker 4: of course dropped that game that we had so highly 15 00:00:55,668 --> 00:00:59,308 Speaker 4: anticipated against Detroit, and in the Rams they won, but 16 00:00:59,348 --> 00:01:00,708 Speaker 4: they're in the headlines for other news. 17 00:01:00,748 --> 00:01:02,628 Speaker 2: Shery, I'm excited for this game already, all right. 18 00:01:02,668 --> 00:01:05,188 Speaker 3: Thankfully there was no traffic coming in for the game. 19 00:01:05,228 --> 00:01:07,388 Speaker 3: Across the street, we're gonna start a little game we 20 00:01:07,428 --> 00:01:09,828 Speaker 3: love to play here called three and out on a Thursday. 21 00:01:09,908 --> 00:01:12,748 Speaker 3: Three topics you go around the horn. We're gonna start 22 00:01:12,788 --> 00:01:15,828 Speaker 3: across the street. Viking some Rams playing at Sofi Stadium. 23 00:01:16,308 --> 00:01:19,108 Speaker 3: A lot of rumors surrounding the Rams this week. Want 24 00:01:19,108 --> 00:01:21,588 Speaker 3: to ask you, guys, what does tonight's game mean for them? 25 00:01:21,948 --> 00:01:22,828 Speaker 2: Looking big picture? 26 00:01:22,868 --> 00:01:25,348 Speaker 3: But Peter is starting with you also, there's all these 27 00:01:25,428 --> 00:01:26,828 Speaker 3: questions around Cooper Cup. 28 00:01:27,148 --> 00:01:27,708 Speaker 2: Yeah. 29 00:01:27,828 --> 00:01:30,908 Speaker 4: Look, I went to the Rams Packers game in person 30 00:01:31,108 --> 00:01:33,628 Speaker 4: a few weeks back. Sherry Burriss, I believe I saw 31 00:01:33,708 --> 00:01:36,348 Speaker 4: you at that contest there, and we're walking around the 32 00:01:36,388 --> 00:01:40,068 Speaker 4: sidelines and there's this little club underneath at so Far 33 00:01:40,268 --> 00:01:42,468 Speaker 4: called Bootsy Bellows. And I've never seen this at an 34 00:01:42,548 --> 00:01:46,828 Speaker 4: NFL stadium before, an active nightclub going on during the game. 35 00:01:46,868 --> 00:01:49,068 Speaker 4: And you know me, I like to fancy myself a 36 00:01:49,068 --> 00:01:50,908 Speaker 4: big night owl and a guy that can go out 37 00:01:50,908 --> 00:01:53,068 Speaker 4: there and burn it on both ends. So I dipped 38 00:01:53,108 --> 00:01:55,388 Speaker 4: in and I walked in and I said, all right, 39 00:01:55,468 --> 00:01:57,428 Speaker 4: I'm in the club. Things are great, but I'm watching 40 00:01:57,468 --> 00:02:00,108 Speaker 4: on the field and this ain't the Rams team that 41 00:02:00,188 --> 00:02:04,108 Speaker 4: I remember when we started talking about them before the season. 42 00:02:04,468 --> 00:02:05,588 Speaker 2: They lost to the Packers. 43 00:02:05,588 --> 00:02:07,948 Speaker 4: They go on there by and then they beat the Raiders, 44 00:02:07,988 --> 00:02:10,028 Speaker 4: but they do so in kind of this weird fashion 45 00:02:10,028 --> 00:02:12,828 Speaker 4: where they base it on their defense and not the offense. 46 00:02:12,868 --> 00:02:13,828 Speaker 2: They can't move the ball. 47 00:02:14,228 --> 00:02:16,108 Speaker 4: But then we get the news that Cooper Cup's coming 48 00:02:16,308 --> 00:02:19,308 Speaker 4: back this week, as all the trade rumors are going on. 49 00:02:19,348 --> 00:02:20,828 Speaker 2: I look at the schedule and. 50 00:02:20,828 --> 00:02:23,548 Speaker 4: It's two and four Rams going up against the five 51 00:02:23,588 --> 00:02:25,868 Speaker 4: to one Vikings. If Cooper Cup can get on the 52 00:02:25,868 --> 00:02:27,188 Speaker 4: field and they can find a way to get a 53 00:02:27,188 --> 00:02:29,188 Speaker 4: win and they go three and four, who knows they 54 00:02:29,228 --> 00:02:31,868 Speaker 4: be pooka Nkuas coming back quicker than we think. Suddenly 55 00:02:31,908 --> 00:02:34,068 Speaker 4: they can get four and four with another win. Then 56 00:02:34,068 --> 00:02:37,108 Speaker 4: you look at the NFC West and it's Seahawks up 57 00:02:37,108 --> 00:02:41,348 Speaker 4: and down, Niners their own issues, Cardinals sub five hundred? 58 00:02:41,748 --> 00:02:44,788 Speaker 4: Is it not worth keeping Cooper Cup for at least 59 00:02:44,988 --> 00:02:45,948 Speaker 4: till the trade. 60 00:02:45,628 --> 00:02:46,988 Speaker 2: Deadline to see where we're at? 61 00:02:47,108 --> 00:02:49,508 Speaker 4: To me, Cooper Cup was never being traded this week 62 00:02:49,548 --> 00:02:52,708 Speaker 4: despite all the rumors, and though I am sure there 63 00:02:52,748 --> 00:02:56,948 Speaker 4: have been conversations with other teams necessarily proactive, I think 64 00:02:56,948 --> 00:02:59,308 Speaker 4: teams have been calling based on Cupp being a veteran 65 00:02:59,348 --> 00:03:00,988 Speaker 4: with a huge salary and who can help a team 66 00:03:01,068 --> 00:03:01,548 Speaker 4: right away. 67 00:03:01,828 --> 00:03:03,548 Speaker 2: I think the Rams are not giving up on the 68 00:03:03,588 --> 00:03:04,348 Speaker 2: season just yet. 69 00:03:04,788 --> 00:03:07,988 Speaker 4: In fact, I think Stafford and Cup and the eventual 70 00:03:08,068 --> 00:03:11,428 Speaker 4: return of Nikuah lifts this entire team. I would not 71 00:03:11,548 --> 00:03:15,348 Speaker 4: be shocked if the Rams won tonight. They're partying in 72 00:03:15,388 --> 00:03:20,228 Speaker 4: bootsy bellows and all that trade talk goes away. You're 73 00:03:20,228 --> 00:03:22,588 Speaker 4: not trading Cooper Cup if you win two straight games 74 00:03:22,628 --> 00:03:24,428 Speaker 4: and you're looking at the NFC West standings and you're 75 00:03:24,428 --> 00:03:28,068 Speaker 4: still alive, especially with the fact that they were three 76 00:03:28,108 --> 00:03:29,748 Speaker 4: and six last year at one. 77 00:03:29,628 --> 00:03:31,708 Speaker 2: Point and made a run and made the playoffs. 78 00:03:31,708 --> 00:03:33,028 Speaker 5: So a loss. 79 00:03:32,748 --> 00:03:35,228 Speaker 4: Tonight we could be talking Cooper Cup trade stuff, and 80 00:03:35,268 --> 00:03:37,188 Speaker 4: we could do it the entire week leading up to 81 00:03:37,228 --> 00:03:40,108 Speaker 4: the trade deadline. Win, I'd say put your phones away 82 00:03:40,108 --> 00:03:40,868 Speaker 4: to that Cooper Cup. 83 00:03:40,908 --> 00:03:42,188 Speaker 5: He's going to be a Ram. Yeah. 84 00:03:42,188 --> 00:03:44,828 Speaker 6: This is this is a very difficult one because you know, 85 00:03:45,228 --> 00:03:48,068 Speaker 6: you look at the opposite side of this, Peter. If 86 00:03:48,108 --> 00:03:51,308 Speaker 6: they lose these two, especially to a five to one 87 00:03:51,668 --> 00:03:54,228 Speaker 6: Vikings that is playing really good, and we know that's 88 00:03:54,228 --> 00:03:56,268 Speaker 6: going to be a tall order for the Rams to 89 00:03:56,308 --> 00:03:59,148 Speaker 6: beat them, even in their home term here right across 90 00:03:59,148 --> 00:04:01,348 Speaker 6: the street at Sofi Stadium. Then they're going up against 91 00:04:01,508 --> 00:04:03,948 Speaker 6: you know, we've had the tell of two stories for 92 00:04:04,308 --> 00:04:06,948 Speaker 6: the Seattle Seahawks, you know, so, but you know they've 93 00:04:06,988 --> 00:04:09,028 Speaker 6: gotten the coming off of a win. This is a 94 00:04:09,108 --> 00:04:11,828 Speaker 6: very good team. They're four and three. I think this 95 00:04:11,868 --> 00:04:14,508 Speaker 6: is difficult for them because if they lose these two games. 96 00:04:14,548 --> 00:04:16,468 Speaker 6: I don't know that you need to keep Cooper Cup. 97 00:04:16,508 --> 00:04:19,428 Speaker 6: You're going our season is done. Like at that point, 98 00:04:19,468 --> 00:04:22,508 Speaker 6: they have nothing. I don't know that they can they 99 00:04:22,508 --> 00:04:23,468 Speaker 6: can they can manage. 100 00:04:23,628 --> 00:04:24,548 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was the buzzer. 101 00:04:24,828 --> 00:04:26,028 Speaker 3: You didn't want to say anything. 102 00:04:25,748 --> 00:04:27,788 Speaker 5: Man toalk. I left you out. I'm sorry, I forgot 103 00:04:27,788 --> 00:04:28,468 Speaker 5: that we even had. 104 00:04:28,348 --> 00:04:37,668 Speaker 3: A time. 105 00:04:34,908 --> 00:04:35,108 Speaker 1: Talk. 106 00:04:35,668 --> 00:04:38,268 Speaker 5: Sheese. This is this is, this is what I think. 107 00:04:38,348 --> 00:04:40,628 Speaker 7: Bringing Puka in the cool back and Cooper Cup you're 108 00:04:40,628 --> 00:04:43,428 Speaker 7: you're there, You're almost there, right, So you need somebody 109 00:04:43,468 --> 00:04:46,148 Speaker 7: and people that can get that ball into the red zone. 110 00:04:46,148 --> 00:04:48,068 Speaker 7: Once they get into the red zone, that's when Kyrien 111 00:04:48,108 --> 00:04:51,388 Speaker 7: Williams is almost unstoppable. He's scored rushing touchdowns in every 112 00:04:51,388 --> 00:04:53,868 Speaker 7: game this season. I believe you just need that help 113 00:04:53,908 --> 00:04:56,068 Speaker 7: to get into that red zone. And you having Cooper 114 00:04:56,108 --> 00:04:58,708 Speaker 7: cup back and eventually Pook on the cool back, it's 115 00:04:58,748 --> 00:05:01,348 Speaker 7: going to give you so many opportunities down there in 116 00:05:01,348 --> 00:05:03,828 Speaker 7: that red zone to you know, convert them two touchdowns. 117 00:05:03,828 --> 00:05:06,868 Speaker 7: So just you waited this long, Just wait another week 118 00:05:06,988 --> 00:05:08,428 Speaker 7: or two and it's gonna be fine. 119 00:05:08,548 --> 00:05:10,508 Speaker 5: It will tell the difference. You're right. In two weeks, 120 00:05:10,508 --> 00:05:11,508 Speaker 5: we'll absolutely nowhere. 121 00:05:11,708 --> 00:05:13,788 Speaker 7: Yeah, in the NFC West, they're all they're all in 122 00:05:13,828 --> 00:05:16,148 Speaker 7: one little group, like they're all one game away from 123 00:05:16,188 --> 00:05:19,268 Speaker 7: each other. I was looking at the NFC West standings. 124 00:05:19,508 --> 00:05:22,228 Speaker 7: Seahawks is four and three, Rams are two and four. 125 00:05:22,308 --> 00:05:25,708 Speaker 7: Everybody in between. The Cardinals and the Niners are three 126 00:05:25,748 --> 00:05:26,028 Speaker 7: and four. 127 00:05:26,108 --> 00:05:27,028 Speaker 5: If they win tonight. 128 00:05:27,068 --> 00:05:29,908 Speaker 7: If the Rams win tonight, now you're in third place 129 00:05:30,108 --> 00:05:30,908 Speaker 7: in the NFC West. 130 00:05:30,948 --> 00:05:33,148 Speaker 5: So just wait. Patience is a virtue. 131 00:05:33,188 --> 00:05:36,628 Speaker 3: You're fine, Peter, echoing that same sentiment second down. DeVante 132 00:05:36,628 --> 00:05:38,908 Speaker 3: adams first game with the Jets did not go the 133 00:05:38,908 --> 00:05:42,708 Speaker 3: way he planned. Speaking to the media yesterday, echoing Aaron Rodgers' 134 00:05:42,748 --> 00:05:46,068 Speaker 3: statement on lack of energy on the sideline in the 135 00:05:46,108 --> 00:05:48,148 Speaker 3: loss on Sunday to the Steelers, listen to this. 136 00:05:49,068 --> 00:05:52,588 Speaker 8: It's not really my personality to see something that's not 137 00:05:52,708 --> 00:05:55,148 Speaker 8: right and to just let it go on, regardless of 138 00:05:55,628 --> 00:06:00,308 Speaker 8: with this from the coaches, players, you know, management, support staff, whoever. 139 00:06:00,388 --> 00:06:03,228 Speaker 8: So obviously it was it was a lack of energy 140 00:06:03,228 --> 00:06:06,508 Speaker 8: and urgency out there, and it was appearance, especially coming 141 00:06:06,508 --> 00:06:09,508 Speaker 8: from you know, I've played on teams that have that 142 00:06:09,548 --> 00:06:12,148 Speaker 8: winning culture and just basically I just took a moment 143 00:06:12,188 --> 00:06:15,508 Speaker 8: to let him know. Like I had reservations about speaking 144 00:06:15,588 --> 00:06:18,068 Speaker 8: up too early and being too vocal too early, but 145 00:06:18,148 --> 00:06:20,468 Speaker 8: I feel like in my mind I said if that 146 00:06:20,588 --> 00:06:23,068 Speaker 8: because I need to you know, we don't have time 147 00:06:23,108 --> 00:06:24,548 Speaker 8: and I gotta do whatever I gotta do to help 148 00:06:24,548 --> 00:06:26,828 Speaker 8: to stay move forward. And lack of energy. I mean 149 00:06:26,828 --> 00:06:28,828 Speaker 8: that's a prerequisite to be able to go out there 150 00:06:28,828 --> 00:06:31,108 Speaker 8: and have a good year or have a good play 151 00:06:31,188 --> 00:06:33,268 Speaker 8: or you know whatever it is. So in my mind 152 00:06:33,588 --> 00:06:34,908 Speaker 8: it was something that I wouldn't have been able to 153 00:06:34,908 --> 00:06:36,028 Speaker 8: sleep if I didn't speak. 154 00:06:35,868 --> 00:06:36,268 Speaker 9: Up on it. 155 00:06:36,428 --> 00:06:39,628 Speaker 3: Seventeen just walked in the building and said it was apparent. 156 00:06:39,708 --> 00:06:41,428 Speaker 3: I don't know how much more of a spark they 157 00:06:41,428 --> 00:06:43,548 Speaker 3: could possibly need. But akbar, what do you think of 158 00:06:43,548 --> 00:06:44,748 Speaker 3: what Devanta Adams had to say? 159 00:06:44,828 --> 00:06:46,388 Speaker 6: Well, first off, I think just to make it clear 160 00:06:46,468 --> 00:06:48,868 Speaker 6: when he says if that, he means forget that. He 161 00:06:48,908 --> 00:06:50,868 Speaker 6: doesn't want that, and you know he doesn't want to 162 00:06:50,868 --> 00:06:53,548 Speaker 6: be a part of that. He's talking about culture right here, 163 00:06:53,588 --> 00:06:56,668 Speaker 6: but understanding the culture that he's walked into. I don't 164 00:06:56,708 --> 00:06:58,748 Speaker 6: know any other way to say it. But the New 165 00:06:58,828 --> 00:07:01,748 Speaker 6: York Jets. They have a losing culture and that's what 166 00:07:01,828 --> 00:07:04,308 Speaker 6: he's walked into, and he's identifying it, and he's stuck 167 00:07:04,308 --> 00:07:07,268 Speaker 6: in this hard place where Okay, I'm walking to the 168 00:07:07,388 --> 00:07:10,228 Speaker 6: vibes ain't right. I see it when you talking about 169 00:07:10,268 --> 00:07:12,588 Speaker 6: guys on the sideline and somebody scores a touchdown or 170 00:07:12,668 --> 00:07:14,628 Speaker 6: makes a play and everyone's just kind of sitting in 171 00:07:14,628 --> 00:07:16,588 Speaker 6: their own place. I think what we have is we 172 00:07:16,628 --> 00:07:20,548 Speaker 6: have a collection right now of talent. Davante Adams, Hassan Reddick, 173 00:07:20,748 --> 00:07:23,908 Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers. It's cool if you got the personnel, but 174 00:07:24,068 --> 00:07:27,348 Speaker 6: that doesn't do anything for changing culture if you can't 175 00:07:27,388 --> 00:07:29,468 Speaker 6: get somebody to speak up and be a vocal leader 176 00:07:29,748 --> 00:07:32,348 Speaker 6: and hold people accountable. I like what Davante Adams is 177 00:07:32,388 --> 00:07:34,908 Speaker 6: doing here. He's calling everyone out and he's making sure 178 00:07:34,948 --> 00:07:38,468 Speaker 6: everyone's accountable to bringing up the energy, because energy is real. 179 00:07:38,868 --> 00:07:40,468 Speaker 2: Let me give some context here too. 180 00:07:40,548 --> 00:07:43,188 Speaker 4: So Breis Hall has this amazing play in the game, 181 00:07:43,268 --> 00:07:46,108 Speaker 4: and what Adams was talking about was he was disappointed 182 00:07:46,148 --> 00:07:48,548 Speaker 4: with the lack of celebration on the sidelines, the lack 183 00:07:48,588 --> 00:07:50,828 Speaker 4: of energy and juice. After Breese Hall has this huge 184 00:07:50,868 --> 00:07:53,228 Speaker 4: play for the touchdown that should get the entire sidelines 185 00:07:53,268 --> 00:07:55,308 Speaker 4: fired up in a game that they needed, and he 186 00:07:55,348 --> 00:07:57,028 Speaker 4: looked around and the guys were kind of like ho hum. 187 00:07:57,508 --> 00:07:59,268 Speaker 2: So apparently, and this comes from. 188 00:07:59,188 --> 00:08:04,108 Speaker 4: Jets sources, in the game, they lose historic fashion thirty 189 00:08:04,148 --> 00:08:04,868 Speaker 4: one straight points. 190 00:08:04,908 --> 00:08:05,348 Speaker 5: They give up. 191 00:08:05,508 --> 00:08:07,708 Speaker 2: They go to the locker room and there's. 192 00:08:07,548 --> 00:08:09,748 Speaker 4: DeVante Adams giving a fiery speech. 193 00:08:09,828 --> 00:08:10,388 Speaker 5: He had just. 194 00:08:10,388 --> 00:08:13,748 Speaker 4: Gotten there Tuesday morning, doesn't know some of these players, 195 00:08:13,988 --> 00:08:16,148 Speaker 4: and he's the one chewing out the team and he's 196 00:08:16,188 --> 00:08:17,268 Speaker 4: the one motivating them. 197 00:08:17,628 --> 00:08:18,148 Speaker 5: And it was. 198 00:08:18,108 --> 00:08:22,228 Speaker 2: Apparently a very inspiring speech. And that's the story. 199 00:08:22,308 --> 00:08:25,268 Speaker 4: It's wow, you just got here and you're serving as 200 00:08:25,268 --> 00:08:26,188 Speaker 4: that veteran leader. 201 00:08:26,588 --> 00:08:27,188 Speaker 5: I love it. 202 00:08:27,268 --> 00:08:28,828 Speaker 4: I think he's got the skins on the wall to 203 00:08:28,948 --> 00:08:31,148 Speaker 4: do it. He's been a veteran of the league for a while, 204 00:08:31,588 --> 00:08:33,668 Speaker 4: but I'm not sure if it's enough to save this 205 00:08:33,748 --> 00:08:35,828 Speaker 4: team now that they're two and five. Manti, your thoughts 206 00:08:35,908 --> 00:08:36,388 Speaker 4: just got there? 207 00:08:36,468 --> 00:08:38,388 Speaker 7: Yeah, no, I love it. It reminds me when I 208 00:08:38,428 --> 00:08:40,068 Speaker 7: was with the Chargers, you know, Chargers. 209 00:08:40,268 --> 00:08:41,308 Speaker 5: I don't think they've. 210 00:08:41,108 --> 00:08:42,908 Speaker 7: Won a Super Bowl yet, but I remember when I 211 00:08:42,988 --> 00:08:45,548 Speaker 7: was there. We're struggling, you know, and the culture wasn't 212 00:08:45,588 --> 00:08:47,708 Speaker 7: a winning culture. We're trying to figure out how do 213 00:08:47,748 --> 00:08:50,348 Speaker 7: we solve this riddle. And we'd sign guys like Jared 214 00:08:50,428 --> 00:08:53,828 Speaker 7: Johnson and Dwight Freeni and Jacoby Jones and Brandon Meban, 215 00:08:54,108 --> 00:08:56,228 Speaker 7: And this was an attempt to kind of adopt people 216 00:08:56,268 --> 00:08:59,788 Speaker 7: from winning cultures to teach a talented roster like ours 217 00:08:59,788 --> 00:09:02,028 Speaker 7: of what it takes to win. We had Eric Woddle, 218 00:09:02,108 --> 00:09:05,708 Speaker 7: we had you know, Philip Rivers, Danny wood Head, Keenan Allen. 219 00:09:05,748 --> 00:09:07,548 Speaker 7: We had a whole bunch of talent on our team. 220 00:09:07,748 --> 00:09:10,188 Speaker 7: It's just we didn't know what we didn't know. We 221 00:09:10,268 --> 00:09:12,748 Speaker 7: didn't know what it took to win, like how the 222 00:09:12,748 --> 00:09:15,548 Speaker 7: Seahawks were winning at that time, like the Baltimore Ravens 223 00:09:15,588 --> 00:09:18,348 Speaker 7: were winning at that time. We just needed some guidance, 224 00:09:18,388 --> 00:09:21,308 Speaker 7: and so we would bring these guys in to teach 225 00:09:21,348 --> 00:09:23,388 Speaker 7: and to mentor and to stand up in front of 226 00:09:23,388 --> 00:09:25,028 Speaker 7: the team and say the things that they wanted to 227 00:09:25,028 --> 00:09:26,988 Speaker 7: say and kind of teach us. That's why it's so 228 00:09:27,028 --> 00:09:28,828 Speaker 7: exciting for the Charges right now. They brought him the 229 00:09:28,868 --> 00:09:31,508 Speaker 7: head man, Jim Harball. Why it is because he knows 230 00:09:31,548 --> 00:09:34,068 Speaker 7: how to win. He knows how to develop a winning culture. 231 00:09:34,268 --> 00:09:36,628 Speaker 7: And so I like what Devonte Adams, you know brought 232 00:09:36,668 --> 00:09:39,028 Speaker 7: to that locker room not only in his talent, but 233 00:09:39,148 --> 00:09:41,868 Speaker 7: in his leadership style and then also his ability to 234 00:09:42,148 --> 00:09:44,748 Speaker 7: ability to know what winning looks like and what losing 235 00:09:44,788 --> 00:09:46,588 Speaker 7: looks like and to have the courch to stand up 236 00:09:46,628 --> 00:09:49,308 Speaker 7: on day two, day three, whatever it was and say, hey, listen, 237 00:09:49,388 --> 00:09:51,028 Speaker 7: this is what it's going to take. And I ain't 238 00:09:51,068 --> 00:09:52,468 Speaker 7: going to sit back and watch this thing go. 239 00:09:52,628 --> 00:09:54,348 Speaker 6: And I'll just say this, like a two or five 240 00:09:54,388 --> 00:09:57,228 Speaker 6: team in the last four seasons, they've made a playoff team. 241 00:09:57,268 --> 00:09:59,068 Speaker 6: So we've seen that. We've seen four teams do that 242 00:09:59,068 --> 00:10:00,588 Speaker 6: ex season. We've seen a team do that in each 243 00:10:00,588 --> 00:10:02,788 Speaker 6: of the last four seasons. So it is very possible 244 00:10:02,948 --> 00:10:04,428 Speaker 6: and I like it. I love it a lot. I 245 00:10:04,468 --> 00:10:05,948 Speaker 6: think there's an opportunity and a chance. 246 00:10:06,108 --> 00:10:08,588 Speaker 3: He did more than just echo Aaron Rodgers message also 247 00:10:08,628 --> 00:10:10,828 Speaker 3: for twenty years. He told the Athletic Aaron Rodgers said, 248 00:10:10,908 --> 00:10:13,908 Speaker 3: that was the realist locker room speech he has heard 249 00:10:13,988 --> 00:10:14,828 Speaker 3: in twenty years. 250 00:10:15,228 --> 00:10:16,388 Speaker 5: And to their former. 251 00:10:16,068 --> 00:10:18,668 Speaker 3: Head coach, we saw Robert Sala back on a sideline 252 00:10:18,668 --> 00:10:22,708 Speaker 3: for the first time. He was spotted at Packer's practice yesterday. 253 00:10:22,748 --> 00:10:22,948 Speaker 10: Peter. 254 00:10:23,068 --> 00:10:25,388 Speaker 3: We know Matt Lafleur, the head coach in Green Bay 255 00:10:25,428 --> 00:10:28,748 Speaker 3: is very good friends with Robert Sala. What do you 256 00:10:28,748 --> 00:10:30,388 Speaker 3: think about him showing up in Green Bay? 257 00:10:30,788 --> 00:10:34,188 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, let's take a listen first here, because we've 258 00:10:34,188 --> 00:10:36,388 Speaker 4: got to hear what Floor said about it before we 259 00:10:36,428 --> 00:10:37,268 Speaker 4: even get to Sala. 260 00:10:37,948 --> 00:10:39,948 Speaker 10: We've been close for a really long time. We can 261 00:10:39,988 --> 00:10:43,068 Speaker 10: shoot your roommates together back at Central Michigan. So we 262 00:10:43,108 --> 00:10:46,148 Speaker 10: thought it was a good idea just to bring him here. 263 00:10:46,188 --> 00:10:48,908 Speaker 10: And he's helping us on the offensive side of the ball. 264 00:10:48,948 --> 00:10:52,308 Speaker 10: I think that's always a good deal to have that perspective, 265 00:10:52,828 --> 00:10:55,308 Speaker 10: you know, that defensive perspective on that side of the balls. 266 00:10:55,388 --> 00:10:57,908 Speaker 10: I think it's beneficial on both accounts too, you know, 267 00:10:58,148 --> 00:11:00,228 Speaker 10: just for him and for us. 268 00:11:00,788 --> 00:11:02,588 Speaker 3: All Right, So there was the head coach talking about 269 00:11:02,588 --> 00:11:05,348 Speaker 3: bringing Robert Sala in defense guy, but also going to 270 00:11:05,388 --> 00:11:06,788 Speaker 3: be touching a little bit of the offense. 271 00:11:06,868 --> 00:11:08,468 Speaker 5: Peter, do you like this idea? 272 00:11:09,068 --> 00:11:09,988 Speaker 2: I love this idea. 273 00:11:10,188 --> 00:11:12,108 Speaker 4: And it's you know, we talked so much about x's 274 00:11:12,148 --> 00:11:13,828 Speaker 4: and o's and coaching hiring. 275 00:11:13,868 --> 00:11:17,788 Speaker 2: Practically, this is just you know, his boy helping him out. 276 00:11:17,628 --> 00:11:19,948 Speaker 4: In a way when Sala needs it. He's down, he's 277 00:11:19,948 --> 00:11:22,148 Speaker 4: not feeling great, he's in a rut. He gets fired, 278 00:11:22,628 --> 00:11:24,508 Speaker 4: and Matt Laflour picked up the phone and says, dude, 279 00:11:24,548 --> 00:11:26,268 Speaker 4: just get back into the locker room and hang with 280 00:11:26,388 --> 00:11:28,748 Speaker 4: us and mental health wives. This is what you want 281 00:11:28,788 --> 00:11:30,708 Speaker 4: to see in life, someone who's got your. 282 00:11:30,588 --> 00:11:32,348 Speaker 2: Back when things don't go right in your career. 283 00:11:32,948 --> 00:11:34,108 Speaker 5: We've got a place for you. 284 00:11:34,188 --> 00:11:37,188 Speaker 4: Not only are they friends, Robert Sala's best man at 285 00:11:37,228 --> 00:11:41,588 Speaker 4: his wedding was Matt Lafleur. They shared an apartment together 286 00:11:41,748 --> 00:11:45,028 Speaker 4: when they worked as gas at Central Michigan. They go 287 00:11:45,228 --> 00:11:47,188 Speaker 4: so far that Brian Kelly, who was the head coach 288 00:11:47,228 --> 00:11:50,028 Speaker 4: at the time, had them in this little corner office 289 00:11:50,228 --> 00:11:51,628 Speaker 4: and would barely address them. 290 00:11:51,628 --> 00:11:53,348 Speaker 2: And the two of them are like two boys, like what. 291 00:11:53,308 --> 00:11:53,588 Speaker 5: Do you need? 292 00:11:53,788 --> 00:11:56,348 Speaker 4: They go back so deep and so yes, Sala will 293 00:11:56,348 --> 00:11:57,868 Speaker 4: help with some offensive concepts. 294 00:11:57,868 --> 00:11:59,228 Speaker 2: I don't know how much he's going to help on 295 00:11:59,228 --> 00:12:00,908 Speaker 2: the offensive side of the all. I'm not dismissing that. 296 00:12:01,468 --> 00:12:03,788 Speaker 4: I think more than anything, this was for Robert Salah 297 00:12:03,828 --> 00:12:05,948 Speaker 4: and Matt Lafleur is a good man to say, hey, 298 00:12:06,268 --> 00:12:08,708 Speaker 4: we got you. There's always a place in my sideline 299 00:12:08,708 --> 00:12:10,188 Speaker 4: for you, and I'm your boy. 300 00:12:10,028 --> 00:12:10,788 Speaker 5: Through thick and thin. 301 00:12:10,988 --> 00:12:12,188 Speaker 2: You got a place here in Green Bay. 302 00:12:12,188 --> 00:12:14,188 Speaker 7: I love this stuff, man, Peter, you just knocked that 303 00:12:14,228 --> 00:12:16,308 Speaker 7: out of the park on that brother, because that's exactly 304 00:12:16,308 --> 00:12:18,948 Speaker 7: what I saw when I saw this whole transaction going down. 305 00:12:19,028 --> 00:12:21,588 Speaker 7: And you know, find you a friend like Matt Lafleur. Man, 306 00:12:21,628 --> 00:12:23,468 Speaker 7: that's that's that's the type of friends you need.

Obviously we 325 00:13:01,588 --> 00:13:03,468 Speaker 7: know what Robert Sola was going through with the with 326 00:13:03,508 --> 00:13:05,508 Speaker 7: the firing, but a lot of people are going through 327 00:13:05,508 --> 00:13:07,388 Speaker 7: and facing battles that you don't know. So be a 328 00:13:07,388 --> 00:13:09,908 Speaker 7: good friend, reach out, say hey, bro, let's let's get 329 00:13:09,948 --> 00:13:10,668 Speaker 7: together sometimes. 330 00:13:10,708 --> 00:13:11,828 Speaker 5: So I love it. 331 00:13:11,988 --> 00:13:13,988 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's also good business. I mean I love the 332 00:13:13,988 --> 00:13:15,828 Speaker 6: friendship part of it, but it's also good business when 333 00:13:15,868 --> 00:13:18,828 Speaker 6: you think about it. The personality of a defensive minded 334 00:13:18,868 --> 00:13:22,628 Speaker 6: coach is totally different of that of an offensive coach. 335 00:13:22,668 --> 00:13:25,388 Speaker 6: And offensive coach is like, oh, we can run this play, 336 00:13:25,388 --> 00:13:26,988 Speaker 6: and they're very like, oh yeah, we can do this, 337 00:13:27,028 --> 00:13:29,068 Speaker 6: and we can run this dragon, we can run this post. 338 00:13:29,468 --> 00:13:31,508 Speaker 6: Defensive coach like how we got to defend about that? 339 00:13:31,548 --> 00:13:35,548 Speaker 6: They're very skeptical. You've been around defensive coaches. Their mindsets 340 00:13:35,588 --> 00:13:38,508 Speaker 6: are different. So you bring a Robert Salah into on 341 00:13:38,548 --> 00:13:41,668 Speaker 6: the offensive side, and then as they're drawing up their 342 00:13:41,708 --> 00:13:44,788 Speaker 6: fancy plays, you have somebody a who can challenge it 343 00:13:44,828 --> 00:13:48,828 Speaker 6: defensively schematically, and then someone who's also not afraid of 344 00:13:48,948 --> 00:13:51,628 Speaker 6: challenging because like that's my boy, Like that's my I 345 00:13:51,628 --> 00:13:53,788 Speaker 6: tell them, I'll tell them his breastank I you know, 346 00:13:53,828 --> 00:13:56,468 Speaker 6: cause that's my guy.

So you need 348 00:13:59,948 --> 00:14:04,708 Speaker 6: somebody who's not afraid to challenge your concepts, and who 349 00:14:04,748 --> 00:14:07,268 Speaker 6: better than to bring in a defensive mind like Robert Sala. 350 00:14:07,388 --> 00:14:09,348 Speaker 5: Absolutely, yep, you got to think they're gonna. 351 00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:12,388 Speaker 6: Stop buzzing me.

Toothbrushing multiple 365 00:14:43,908 --> 00:14:46,028 Speaker 11: times a day. In terms of Robert Sala. I would 366 00:14:46,068 --> 00:14:48,948 Speaker 11: add two. Don't be surprised if some other friends of 367 00:14:48,988 --> 00:14:51,988 Speaker 11: Sala also have him in their buildings as this season 368 00:14:52,028 --> 00:14:54,228 Speaker 11: go on, maybe a week or two in Green Bay. 369 00:14:54,268 --> 00:14:56,708 Speaker 11: There's other coaches he knows around the league. It's something 370 00:14:56,748 --> 00:14:58,708 Speaker 11: good for a coach in this position to do, which 371 00:14:58,708 --> 00:15:00,948 Speaker 11: is get out see how other people do things. Maybe 372 00:15:00,988 --> 00:15:02,788 Speaker 11: you can help them a little bit along the way 373 00:15:02,828 --> 00:15:05,388 Speaker 11: as well. All right, let's set up Thursday night football 374 00:15:05,468 --> 00:15:08,548 Speaker 11: some key injuries to watch as the Vikings take on 375 00:15:08,588 --> 00:15:11,388 Speaker 11: the Rams. Let's start with Cooper Cupp, who is off 376 00:15:11,428 --> 00:15:15,188 Speaker 11: the injury report, officially ready to roll back in the 377 00:15:15,228 --> 00:15:17,828 Speaker 11: lineup for the first time since he suffered his ankle 378 00:15:17,868 --> 00:15:21,668 Speaker 11: injury back in Week two. That certainly is a huge 379 00:15:21,668 --> 00:15:24,428 Speaker 11: piece of the Rams offense that they've been missing. Could 380 00:15:24,548 --> 00:15:26,468 Speaker 11: be the last time we see Cooper Cup in a 381 00:15:26,548 --> 00:15:29,148 Speaker 11: Rams uniform. He has been the subject of trade talks 382 00:15:29,428 --> 00:15:31,788 Speaker 11: in recent weeks, but he will be suiting up tonight 383 00:15:32,068 --> 00:15:35,908 Speaker 11: at Sofi Stadium. As for their other top wide receiver, 384 00:15:36,268 --> 00:15:38,948 Speaker 11: Pooka Nakoula, who has not played since he's suffered a 385 00:15:39,068 --> 00:15:42,308 Speaker 11: knee injury back in Week one, they just opened up 386 00:15:42,428 --> 00:15:45,708 Speaker 11: Nakoua's practice window a couple of days ago, but he's 387 00:15:45,748 --> 00:15:50,308 Speaker 11: listed as questionable, and my understanding is there is now 388 00:15:50,508 --> 00:15:55,228 Speaker 11: optimism that Pooka Nikua could play tonight. He's not gonna 389 00:15:55,228 --> 00:15:57,668 Speaker 11: go out there probably and play seventy snaps. 390 00:15:57,668 --> 00:15:58,748 Speaker 2: He's only had one. 391 00:15:58,588 --> 00:16:01,148 Speaker 11: Real practice, but he's had a good week. They put 392 00:16:01,228 --> 00:16:03,668 Speaker 11: him through some things yesterday. I would imagine they'll put 393 00:16:03,708 --> 00:16:06,708 Speaker 11: him through some more things today. If all goes well, 394 00:16:06,828 --> 00:16:10,188 Speaker 11: it seems like we're trending toward Pooka Nakoua at least 395 00:16:10,228 --> 00:16:13,708 Speaker 11: being active for the Rams tonight. As for the Vikings 396 00:16:13,708 --> 00:16:16,268 Speaker 11: and their tight end TJ. Howkinson, who has not played 397 00:16:16,268 --> 00:16:20,148 Speaker 11: since his knee injury last season. He liked Pookin Nakua 398 00:16:20,508 --> 00:16:24,228 Speaker 11: remains on injured reserve. No firm word yet on the 399 00:16:24,268 --> 00:16:25,228 Speaker 11: status of TJ. 400 00:16:25,348 --> 00:16:25,908 Speaker 2: Hawkinson. 401 00:16:25,948 --> 00:16:28,988 Speaker 11: They have up until one pm Pacific time today to 402 00:16:29,148 --> 00:16:33,028 Speaker 11: activate him from IR. My guest, just a guest at 403 00:16:33,068 --> 00:16:36,068 Speaker 11: this point, is that we do not see Hawkinson tonight, 404 00:16:36,148 --> 00:16:40,348 Speaker 11: and his season debut waits until next Sunday against the Colts. 405 00:16:40,348 --> 00:16:43,468 Speaker 11: But again, we've still got several hours to go for 406 00:16:43,628 --> 00:16:47,868 Speaker 11: final decisions on activating not just TJ. Hawkinson, but potentially 407 00:16:47,948 --> 00:16:49,308 Speaker 11: pookin Nakua as well. 408 00:16:49,348 --> 00:16:49,668 Speaker 9: Sherry. 409 00:16:49,748 --> 00:16:51,148 Speaker 3: A lot to wait for and I know Tom you'll 410 00:16:51,188 --> 00:16:53,988 Speaker 3: bring us the latest.

They went early in London, had a bye 423 00:17:34,548 --> 00:17:36,908 Speaker 4: week and they have been riding high. But what is 424 00:17:37,028 --> 00:17:40,668 Speaker 4: next for Chicago. Let's bring in NFL analyst Nate Tice. 425 00:17:40,748 --> 00:17:43,628 Speaker 4: We love having on the show. Who breaks it down 426 00:17:44,188 --> 00:17:47,548 Speaker 4: by hitting the film room? Nate, you look at the tape, 427 00:17:47,548 --> 00:17:50,428 Speaker 4: which we love having on the show. What does the 428 00:17:50,468 --> 00:17:54,028 Speaker 4: tape show that backs up Caleb Williams's growth as a 429 00:17:54,108 --> 00:17:57,348 Speaker 4: quarterback over the first six weeks of the season. 430 00:17:57,588 --> 00:18:00,108 Speaker 13: Yeah, with Caleb is not just the physical talent, it's 431 00:18:00,148 --> 00:18:03,908 Speaker 13: the mental and maturity and playing the quarterback position that's 432 00:18:03,908 --> 00:18:06,548 Speaker 13: been really standing out. Sometimes we use all twenty two, 433 00:18:06,628 --> 00:18:08,428 Speaker 13: but sometimes we also need the TV. 434 00:18:08,268 --> 00:18:09,028 Speaker 9: Copy to see this. 435 00:18:09,388 --> 00:18:12,308 Speaker 13: So we're gonna start with a little friendly interaction. I'll 436 00:18:12,348 --> 00:18:15,108 Speaker 13: call it between center Coleman Shelton for the Bears and 437 00:18:15,148 --> 00:18:17,148 Speaker 13: Caleb Williams, and we'll lead on from there. 438 00:18:17,548 --> 00:18:24,068 Speaker 4: Come thirty two thirty two, thirty fire man. 439 00:18:24,468 --> 00:18:26,868 Speaker 13: So why does Coleman Shelton sell it sound like Bill 440 00:18:26,908 --> 00:18:28,628 Speaker 13: Paxton and Aliens saying game over? 441 00:18:28,748 --> 00:18:31,548 Speaker 9: Game over? Is he thinks this is a run play? 442 00:18:31,868 --> 00:18:34,708 Speaker 13: And why Caleb is so calm and why he is 443 00:18:34,748 --> 00:18:36,188 Speaker 13: saying I got it, I got it? 444 00:18:36,228 --> 00:18:38,348 Speaker 9: Is he has answers to detest on this play. 445 00:18:38,668 --> 00:18:41,468 Speaker 13: And when you pan back out and watch his play, 446 00:18:41,828 --> 00:18:44,428 Speaker 13: you can see Caleb Williams not only giving the run play. 447 00:18:44,468 --> 00:18:45,828 Speaker 9: You hear him saying thirty two. 448 00:18:45,988 --> 00:18:47,708 Speaker 13: Which is the run play? It's thirty two power I'm 449 00:18:47,708 --> 00:18:50,948 Speaker 13: gonna guess. Then you also see him signaling to Roman 450 00:18:51,028 --> 00:18:52,868 Speaker 13: Dues at the top of the screen. Hey, running out 451 00:18:52,948 --> 00:18:55,828 Speaker 13: route here. That's what that little O is. Sorry, Bears coaches, 452 00:18:55,828 --> 00:18:58,228 Speaker 13: I'm giving away your hand signals. But he's giving a 453 00:18:58,228 --> 00:19:00,748 Speaker 13: little O here. Run a little quick out route which 454 00:19:00,828 --> 00:19:03,188 Speaker 13: is bypass the blitz. Don't worry about the run play, 455 00:19:03,188 --> 00:19:05,388 Speaker 13: don't worry about blocking it. I got the answer here. 456 00:19:05,628 --> 00:19:07,588 Speaker 13: Not even gonna throw the bubble. I'm gonna signal the 457 00:19:07,588 --> 00:19:10,548 Speaker 13: out route and solve the answer to this blitz test. 458 00:19:11,148 --> 00:19:14,708 Speaker 13: But that's what that fire means. Fireman meant fire zone blitz. 459 00:19:14,708 --> 00:19:17,068 Speaker 13: If you remember Dick lebow back with the Steelers, that's 460 00:19:17,108 --> 00:19:18,268 Speaker 13: what Coleman, sheheld was saying. 461 00:19:18,588 --> 00:19:19,068 Speaker 9: Didn't matter. 462 00:19:19,148 --> 00:19:22,468 Speaker 13: Killer Williams had the answer because his maturity, his understanding 463 00:19:22,468 --> 00:19:25,068 Speaker 13: of the offense is really that advanced level so far. 464 00:19:25,388 --> 00:19:30,948 Speaker 7: May you think he's actually showing some vintage Aaron Rodgers househo. 465 00:19:31,108 --> 00:19:32,108 Speaker 9: Not just the arm talent. 466 00:19:32,388 --> 00:19:34,668 Speaker 13: And again this is just the mental side we see, 467 00:19:34,988 --> 00:19:38,148 Speaker 13: you know, Aaron Rodgers really doing the sheriff at the 468 00:19:38,148 --> 00:19:40,708 Speaker 13: line of scrimmage. He really wants to control. Caleb Williams 469 00:19:40,748 --> 00:19:43,508 Speaker 13: is getting that same control too. So again we're gonna 470 00:19:43,508 --> 00:19:46,228 Speaker 13: look at another TV copy. The Bears use no huddle 471 00:19:46,268 --> 00:19:48,068 Speaker 13: at one of the highest rates in the NFL. And 472 00:19:48,108 --> 00:19:50,948 Speaker 13: this is not just warp NFL warp speed get there 473 00:19:51,108 --> 00:19:53,988 Speaker 13: no huddle stuff. This is him controlling and hanging huddle 474 00:19:54,108 --> 00:19:56,388 Speaker 13: and signaling and giving place to the rest of his teammates. 475 00:19:56,548 --> 00:19:59,148 Speaker 13: So again we're gonna go to another TV copy where 476 00:19:59,188 --> 00:20:01,308 Speaker 13: you can hear kill about the controls of the offense. 477 00:20:07,188 --> 00:20:10,068 Speaker 13: So what he is saying there, sticky is it's their 478 00:20:10,188 --> 00:20:12,948 Speaker 13: term for stick, which is a common concept in the NFL. Again, 479 00:20:13,028 --> 00:20:16,748 Speaker 13: sorry Bears coaches, But what stick is is you're gonna 480 00:20:16,788 --> 00:20:19,108 Speaker 13: see a flat route by the tight end and then 481 00:20:19,148 --> 00:20:21,308 Speaker 13: an out route from the receiver at the top of 482 00:20:21,348 --> 00:20:23,548 Speaker 13: the screen. So what he is doing here is he 483 00:20:23,588 --> 00:20:25,628 Speaker 13: is telling the entire offense what to do. He is 484 00:20:25,668 --> 00:20:28,108 Speaker 13: truly drawing a play up in the sand, using a 485 00:20:28,148 --> 00:20:30,668 Speaker 13: code word here, but using that code word to get 486 00:20:30,708 --> 00:20:33,348 Speaker 13: everybody else on the same page. And again, because they 487 00:20:33,428 --> 00:20:36,748 Speaker 13: use so much no huddle, they are using what healed 488 00:20:36,828 --> 00:20:39,308 Speaker 13: see the defense and control the offense to get to 489 00:20:39,348 --> 00:20:41,748 Speaker 13: that play. So you see the flat route, you see 490 00:20:41,748 --> 00:20:44,308 Speaker 13: the out route from these guys, and when you roll 491 00:20:44,388 --> 00:20:46,708 Speaker 13: the tape you can see this playing out. And thank 492 00:20:46,708 --> 00:20:48,188 Speaker 13: god he goes to the top of the screen, by 493 00:20:48,228 --> 00:20:50,948 Speaker 13: the way, because they run the right route at the 494 00:20:50,948 --> 00:20:52,868 Speaker 13: top the bottom of the route. Might have got a 495 00:20:52,868 --> 00:20:55,348 Speaker 13: little miscommunication there working on these things when you get 496 00:20:55,388 --> 00:20:57,908 Speaker 13: to know huddle, But Again, this is a stick concept, 497 00:20:57,948 --> 00:21:01,068 Speaker 13: and this is Caleb Williams yelling Sticky Sticky, everybody knows 498 00:21:01,108 --> 00:21:03,388 Speaker 13: what to do. We're getting the we're getting the defense reeling, 499 00:21:03,468 --> 00:21:06,228 Speaker 13: running a simple cover, boom hits a nice simple game 500 00:21:06,268 --> 00:21:09,308 Speaker 13: there from a no huddle situation, creating another first down. 501 00:21:09,388 --> 00:21:10,988 Speaker 9: Again, this is very advanced uff. 502 00:21:11,188 --> 00:21:14,388 Speaker 13: You don't see professional quarterbacks that were getting paid forty 503 00:21:14,388 --> 00:21:17,148 Speaker 13: million dollars ever have this control. And this is a 504 00:21:17,228 --> 00:21:19,308 Speaker 13: rookie in its first month of the season. It's really impressive. 505 00:21:19,348 --> 00:21:21,868 Speaker 6: Yeah, it is outstanding by the rookie Sticky Sticky, though 506 00:21:21,908 --> 00:21:23,788 Speaker 6: they could be a little bit more covert. I mean 507 00:21:23,828 --> 00:21:25,948 Speaker 6: I could figure that out on defense, right, I know 508 00:21:25,988 --> 00:21:27,308 Speaker 6: what's going on, Sticky Sticky. 509 00:21:27,468 --> 00:21:31,628 Speaker 9: You just twig three by one version of twig. 510 00:21:31,388 --> 00:21:33,108 Speaker 5: Yeah or something. 511 00:21:33,588 --> 00:21:38,468 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, I know you think you think we 512 00:21:38,508 --> 00:21:38,908 Speaker 9: get on it. 513 00:21:39,028 --> 00:21:42,868 Speaker 6: Yeah, we've seen him show command. Of course, we're talking 514 00:21:42,868 --> 00:21:45,908 Speaker 6: about Katle Williams with the pre snap. But after the 515 00:21:45,948 --> 00:21:47,548 Speaker 6: step what really stands out. 516 00:21:47,428 --> 00:21:50,308 Speaker 13: To you man, So this is what gets the highlights. 517 00:21:50,348 --> 00:21:52,468 Speaker 13: Is not only just the creation stuff. It's and this 518 00:21:52,508 --> 00:21:54,588 Speaker 13: is where some Aaron Rodgers comparisons come to. It's just 519 00:21:54,628 --> 00:21:57,308 Speaker 13: the arm talent and the overall sense of calm that 520 00:21:57,388 --> 00:21:59,868 Speaker 13: Cale Williams plays with. So we're seeing the pre snap 521 00:21:59,908 --> 00:22:01,908 Speaker 13: process and now we're gonna see in the post snap process. 522 00:22:02,188 --> 00:22:04,068 Speaker 13: So now we're gonna get back to that sweet sweet 523 00:22:04,068 --> 00:22:07,348 Speaker 13: Alt twenty two. And this is an empty formation with 524 00:22:07,548 --> 00:22:09,028 Speaker 13: nobody else in the backfield. 525 00:22:09,108 --> 00:22:13,548 Speaker 9: Caleb Williams empty. You have to operate quick as a quarterback. 526 00:22:13,188 --> 00:22:16,428 Speaker 13: And you generally hopefully can push the ball, so you 527 00:22:16,548 --> 00:22:18,708 Speaker 13: don't have the defense clamping down because they know you 528 00:22:18,708 --> 00:22:20,548 Speaker 13: have to get the ball off quick. Right here you 529 00:22:20,588 --> 00:22:22,948 Speaker 13: see Caleb Willians seeing the linebacker. He could take the early, 530 00:22:23,428 --> 00:22:25,668 Speaker 13: easy throw underneath, get a five yard game, no one 531 00:22:25,708 --> 00:22:28,148 Speaker 13: will be mad at him. Instead, he hangs in there, 532 00:22:28,388 --> 00:22:31,428 Speaker 13: hits Roman Duze on the inbreaker right as he's passing. 533 00:22:31,508 --> 00:22:34,228 Speaker 13: The linebacker goes for a huge game. That's a difference 534 00:22:34,228 --> 00:22:37,868 Speaker 13: between the deficiency and explosiveness. And Caleb Williams, even when 535 00:22:37,868 --> 00:22:40,028 Speaker 13: he's an empty he pushes the ball. And you see 536 00:22:40,068 --> 00:22:41,948 Speaker 13: the other guys that are up with him, Josh Allen, 537 00:22:41,988 --> 00:22:44,548 Speaker 13: Matthew Stafford, Brock Purdy. These are guys that push the 538 00:22:44,548 --> 00:22:47,348 Speaker 13: ball and can operate intelligently. And this is what Cale 539 00:22:47,388 --> 00:22:49,748 Speaker 13: can do. So it's not his his physical sense and 540 00:22:49,788 --> 00:22:51,548 Speaker 13: his physical ability. Yeah, that's going to get you the 541 00:22:51,588 --> 00:22:54,228 Speaker 13: number one pick. It's this mental side that he's showing 542 00:22:54,268 --> 00:22:58,428 Speaker 13: off pre and post net. It's extremely mature. It's very, 543 00:22:58,588 --> 00:23:00,788 Speaker 13: very impressive. But I just got to reiterate how impressive 544 00:23:00,788 --> 00:23:02,908 Speaker 13: this is to see from a young quarterback in the NFL. 545 00:23:04,468 --> 00:23:05,148 Speaker 11: That is impressive. 546 00:23:05,148 --> 00:23:05,668 Speaker 2: Breakdown eight. 547 00:23:05,708 --> 00:23:07,428 Speaker 3: I feel like I'm a smarter football fan and someone 548 00:23:07,428 --> 00:23:09,708 Speaker 3: who hasn't played the game, but I want to look 549 00:23:09,708 --> 00:23:13,708 Speaker 3: at the Vikings. I know you have deep Minnesota ties, 550 00:23:13,788 --> 00:23:15,708 Speaker 3: so I have to ask you the most important question 551 00:23:15,788 --> 00:23:19,788 Speaker 3: of the morning, the crossover between Justin Jefferson and Timberable 552 00:23:19,868 --> 00:23:23,588 Speaker 3: star Anthony Edwards. What did you think with this jersey swap? 553 00:23:23,908 --> 00:23:26,468 Speaker 13: I thought the best part was the behind the scenes stuff. 554 00:23:26,908 --> 00:23:29,868 Speaker 13: You could see Anthony Edwards his you know, if we yell, 555 00:23:29,948 --> 00:23:31,868 Speaker 13: if we make a shot, all of us non basketball 556 00:23:31,868 --> 00:23:32,348 Speaker 13: players yell. 557 00:23:32,428 --> 00:23:37,068 Speaker 9: Kobe ye, he yelled, he Tony romo, which I thought 558 00:23:37,108 --> 00:23:37,708 Speaker 9: was amazing. 559 00:23:37,948 --> 00:23:40,428 Speaker 13: Not Brady, not payting Tony Romo. He was like, no, 560 00:23:40,468 --> 00:23:41,308 Speaker 13: I'm a gun slinger. 561 00:23:41,348 --> 00:23:44,988 Speaker 9: I love this. So I really liked this jersey swap. 562 00:23:45,188 --> 00:23:47,468 Speaker 13: Of course, Moss and KG are going to be guys 563 00:23:47,468 --> 00:23:50,148 Speaker 13: that I have a deep place in my heart. But 564 00:23:50,188 --> 00:23:52,188 Speaker 13: then you see, just I hopefully can see this with 565 00:23:52,268 --> 00:23:55,268 Speaker 13: other combinations. You know, maybe Cale Williams and Counter Bdard. 566 00:23:55,508 --> 00:23:58,388 Speaker 13: Maybe get a little hockey crossover there, Ronal o'cona and 567 00:23:58,388 --> 00:24:00,428 Speaker 13: Bejhon Robinson get a little baseball in there. 568 00:24:01,188 --> 00:24:02,268 Speaker 5: Or how'd we go? 569 00:24:02,548 --> 00:24:06,068 Speaker 9: How we go to Indiango Anthony rich Sin and Caitlyn Clark. 570 00:24:07,108 --> 00:24:09,388 Speaker 13: I like that, there we go they a little football 571 00:24:09,388 --> 00:24:11,868 Speaker 13: and basketball there, two young stars that you know, hopefully 572 00:24:11,868 --> 00:24:14,228 Speaker 13: we see Anthew Richard's staying healthy and continuing, but Katelyn 573 00:24:14,268 --> 00:24:16,468 Speaker 13: Clark is obviously a star in all of sports right now. 574 00:24:16,748 --> 00:24:19,388 Speaker 2: I like that, Nate, These are all great ideas. 575 00:24:19,468 --> 00:24:23,828 Speaker 4: I had Gunner Henderson and Zay Flowers and Kyle very 576 00:24:23,908 --> 00:24:27,348 Speaker 4: aptly said guns and roses, and I said, we got it, Like, 577 00:24:27,348 --> 00:24:28,108 Speaker 4: what are we doing here? 578 00:24:28,388 --> 00:24:29,068 Speaker 5: That's perfect? 579 00:24:29,188 --> 00:24:30,828 Speaker 2: That is what are we doing? 580 00:24:31,428 --> 00:24:31,948 Speaker 5: What are we doing? 581 00:24:31,988 --> 00:24:32,508 Speaker 2: It's perfect? 582 00:24:32,588 --> 00:24:32,668 Speaker 14: Ye? 583 00:24:33,108 --> 00:24:35,788 Speaker 9: Their PR team should pay you right now. 584 00:24:36,548 --> 00:24:38,868 Speaker 4: Come on, it's all we do, Nate, I got it. 585 00:24:38,868 --> 00:24:41,308 Speaker 4: I'm being completely honest here. I listen at like the 586 00:24:41,388 --> 00:24:43,428 Speaker 4: edge of my seat when you're breaking this stuff down. 587 00:24:43,268 --> 00:24:44,028 Speaker 5: The sticky sticky. 588 00:24:44,388 --> 00:24:45,988 Speaker 2: If I'm the defense on the Jaguars. 589 00:24:46,028 --> 00:24:47,708 Speaker 4: I've been playing football my whole life, Like, don't you 590 00:24:47,748 --> 00:24:49,068 Speaker 4: know that route is coming quickly? 591 00:24:49,068 --> 00:24:49,668 Speaker 2: What were your thoughts? 592 00:24:49,748 --> 00:24:49,828 Speaker 5: Like? 593 00:24:49,868 --> 00:24:51,308 Speaker 2: How can they not adjust in real time? 594 00:24:51,588 --> 00:24:53,788 Speaker 9: You can know what's coming. But everybody's got to know that. 595 00:24:54,108 --> 00:24:56,428 Speaker 13: And that's why even when you steal signals in college, 596 00:24:56,468 --> 00:24:58,108 Speaker 13: I was always like, well, you still got to stop it. 597 00:24:58,228 --> 00:25:00,068 Speaker 13: And I think that's a little bit of that. Also, 598 00:25:00,348 --> 00:25:02,548 Speaker 13: are they messing with us? Are they is sticky means 599 00:25:02,548 --> 00:25:05,188 Speaker 13: something else maybe? And the heat and the bolts are 600 00:25:05,188 --> 00:25:08,308 Speaker 13: flying sometimes I think sometimes defenders are a little hesitanting out. 601 00:25:08,428 --> 00:25:12,908 Speaker 13: That's acbar you play defense, I know for men out 602 00:25:12,908 --> 00:25:14,348 Speaker 13: For me, we'll just say it. I'm like, all right, 603 00:25:14,508 --> 00:25:15,988 Speaker 13: you guys still got to stop the throw. He still 604 00:25:15,988 --> 00:25:18,268 Speaker 13: got to stop the situation. So I think that's why 605 00:25:18,308 --> 00:25:20,188 Speaker 13: they have confidence in it. Hopefully I didn't ruin it 606 00:25:20,188 --> 00:25:20,628 Speaker 13: for him though. 607 00:25:21,308 --> 00:25:22,388 Speaker 2: Nate, awesome stuff. 608 00:25:22,428 --> 00:25:24,468 Speaker 4: We love love watching your stuff every week here, but 609 00:25:24,548 --> 00:25:27,508 Speaker 4: we could also find in depth game film over at 610 00:25:27,628 --> 00:25:30,188 Speaker 4: NFL Pro Nate Tice, thank you for joining the show, 611 00:25:30,228 --> 00:25:30,908 Speaker 4: my friend. 612 00:25:30,788 --> 00:25:31,468 Speaker 9: Thanks for having me. 613 00:25:31,788 --> 00:25:32,788 Speaker 5: Welcome back, everybody. 614 00:25:32,788 --> 00:25:35,748 Speaker 15: I'm Omar Race and Panthers head coach Dave Canalis announcing 615 00:25:35,748 --> 00:25:39,868 Speaker 15: that quarterback Andy Dalton suffered a sprained right thumb after 616 00:25:39,908 --> 00:25:42,068 Speaker 15: he was involved in a car crash Tuesday, and the 617 00:25:42,108 --> 00:25:45,468 Speaker 15: injury is significant enough to keep Dalton out of Sunday's 618 00:25:45,508 --> 00:25:48,948 Speaker 15: game against the Broncos, which means last year's top overall 619 00:25:48,988 --> 00:25:52,908 Speaker 15: pick Bryce Young will once again start for Carolina. Young 620 00:25:52,948 --> 00:25:55,308 Speaker 15: says he's not viewing this as a chance to win 621 00:25:55,428 --> 00:25:58,228 Speaker 15: back the job on a full time basis. He simply 622 00:25:58,268 --> 00:25:58,948 Speaker 15: wants to play. 623 00:25:58,988 --> 00:26:01,588 Speaker 16: Well, you know, for me, it's just just day, White 624 00:26:01,628 --> 00:26:04,628 Speaker 16: Day again.
