We'll 12 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: do that with Jim when he joins us in just 13 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: a few minutes. To bring you up to speed, John 14 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: Robinson churning the bottom of the roster, always churning, always 15 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: looking for another player. Some guy's gone, some guys here. 16 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: Here are the new guys in the secondary where they 17 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: need some depth. Trey Caldwell, first year man out of 18 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: Louisiana Monroe. Also Kenneth Dirt, first year man out of 19 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: Youngstown State. He was here for part of last season 20 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: on the practice squad, just a brief time, as was 21 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: Tony Washington. Junior an outside linebacker, first year man out 22 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: of Washington, so he has been here before. Devon Dade 23 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: is a rookie sixty three two sixty out of Portland State. 24 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: He's a linebacker who can rush the passer, better known 25 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: as an outside linebacker. Francis Kalin is a first year 26 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: man out of Georgia Tech. He is a defensive lineman 27 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: six five two ninety five. So Caldwell is thirty nine, 28 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: Dirden is thirty eight, Dade is forty six, Washington is 29 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: fifty seven, at Kaylan is ninety three.

Oh well, I gotta wait because 32 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: after the cuts are made, everybody, it feels like, swaps 33 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: jerseys and decides they want to be a different number. 34 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: And then I'm messed up for the rest of the sea. 35 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: That's when you get down to fifty three. But I 36 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 1: mean you have to remember that's still three weeks away. 37 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: That's true. Tampa Bay is on the radar.

They are 48 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: the best, most exciting practices. Anywhere you look, there's something happening. 49 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 1: You know, all that's great, but you know what's better. 50 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: The Coaches Radio Show on Titans Radio tomorrow night.

We've had a chance to watch the tape 71 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: from the Thursday night preseason game and we ask everybody 72 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: on the pan and we said, come up with something 73 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: that jumps out to you. Give us three things that 74 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: jump out to you from the tape of the Titans 75 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: and the Packers from last Thursday night. Jim White will 76 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: be here momentarily, but for now, Amy Wells and I 77 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: will bounce. It's our three things back and forth. So Amy, 78 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: you get to go first. What was something that jumped 79 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: out to you? From preseason game number one Titans and Packers. 80 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: We have talked through all of training camp about this 81 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: new offensive scheme, how different it's going to be. We've 82 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: talked about players getting adjusted to it. We've talked about 83 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: coach the floor and implementing it. We've talked a lot 84 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 1: about it. This was the first time we got a 85 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: little taste of it. We didn't get a lot of 86 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: the fancy stuff, but just kind of seeing how it's 87 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: going to work. This offense seems to fit this Titans 88 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: team and the players that they have so well. Having 89 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: Marcus or I guess, giving Marcus Mario to the option 90 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: to throw the ball, or run the ball, or do 91 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,720 Speaker 1: the things that he can do best based on what 92 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: he's seeing is awesome. Putting Derrick Henry in situations where 93 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: he's got a lot of one on one man coverage, 94 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 1: I would take that bet any day of the week. 95 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry against anybody in the world, I think he's 96 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: going to run over them a lot of the time. 97 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: It just feels like we are finally seeing an offense 98 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: that plays to some of our biggest assets, and I'm 99 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: really excited about that. I think that's fair especially exciting 100 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: consider you didn't considering you didn't see Dylaney Walker right, 101 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: Corey Davis right, Richard Matthews exactly. So, even some of 102 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: the guys that are fighting for roster spots, even some 103 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: of the people who are hoping to find where they 104 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: fit in this offense, it plays to the strengths that 105 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: they have, and a lot of that as a testament 106 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: to John Robinson for bringing in a specific type of player. 107 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: But it works. It all seems to go together well, 108 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: and I'm excited. My first one is special team's mindset. 109 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: For several years, the Titans have played special teams almost 110 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: from a defensive posture. This group, under Craig Ackerman and 111 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: Matt Edwards, the two young coaches who are running it, 112 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: are playing deef, are playing special teams with a much 113 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: more aggressive mindset. We saw how they covered kicks. They 114 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: caused a fumble on kickoff return or on punt return, 115 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: I should say, ran back a kick sixty four yards. 116 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: I think they are trying to take special teams from 117 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: a sort of thing which it has been for this 118 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: organization for a few years, and turned it into an advantage. 119 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: Some people say special teams, well, it's a third of 120 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: the game. It's not. Actually, you don't run a third 121 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: of the plays every game or not special teams plays. 122 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: Thank god. Well, if we're not talking about special teams practice, 123 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: which he's just saying, which can be a little dry, yes, 124 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: just saying grass ground. No, no, not that, but it's 125 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: a little dry. It's a little dry. Okay, get out 126 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: of here. But the point is you can gain an 127 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: advantage there. And the legendary Mike west Off coach the 128 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: I guess, the Dolphins and the Jets special teams, and 129 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: now he's been brought out of retirement. He's coaching the 130 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: Saints special teams. When you played against Mike Westoff's special 131 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: teams units, you were scared to death. They were gonna 132 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: block a punt, they were gonna block a kick, they 133 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: were gonna run back a kick, they were gonna pull 134 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: some special teams action. They were at the very least 135 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: they were going to take advantage of field position on 136 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: you the other night. And from what I've seen in practice, 137 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: it feels like the Titans now want to be that 138 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: kind of unit. They have some people with the ability 139 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: to be that kind of unit, and these two young 140 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: coaches I think are pretty special. So to me, the 141 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: more as if attitude showed up in Green Bay. Not 142 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: saying it's everything's beautiful and suddenly they're one of the 143 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: top three special teams units in the league, but I'm 144 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: saying the emphasis that has been put in that area 145 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,479 Speaker 1: and the fact that they kept Craig Ackerman and promoted 146 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: him to the special teams coach, I think because he 147 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: fits this head coach's vision of special teams, he fits 148 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: this general manager's vision of special teams. I think that's 149 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: a good thing. Well, you know, the head coach loves 150 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: special get he loves them, and he's excited about being 151 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: hands on with that group, and he's excited about kind 152 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: of being involved in that. And we're seeing that translator. Well, 153 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: people say, well, special teams can win you a game. Yeah, 154 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I get that. The Titans have a great punter, 155 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: they have a great kicker, they have a fantastic long 156 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: snapper in Bo Brinkley. They're as good at the three 157 00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 1: spots as they've probably ever been. But in most cases, 158 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: special teams doesn't win you a game. Can help you 159 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: win a game, can change something you know, just a 160 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 1: little bit. At times, sometimes it's dramatic, but sometimes most 161 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: times it's more just changing a drive by ten yards, 162 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: or it's making one play at the end of a 163 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 1: half that makes something happen. I think they can do 164 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: that this year. It's a game of inches of one moment. 165 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: How deep are we into this show? Jeff Harding five minutes. Yep, 166 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: she's already pulled out. I'm just saying umbers and angles, 167 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: and if you can get yourself in any sort of advantage, 168 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: I'm taking it. You've been hanging around with Dave McGinnis, 169 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: get it special team. Okay, So that's my first one. 170 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: Give me your second one. From watching the tape of 171 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: the Titans versus Green Bay, Amy Wells second point that 172 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: jumps out the young players on this team showed up. 173 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: Here are the ones I'm talking about, specifically, rookie Harold Landry. 174 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he showed up, made a big play, Sure 175 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: did he, Sure did. He made some plays in the 176 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: run game too, Absolutely he did. He had a strong 177 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: showing and he was working with the one defense for 178 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: a while. Well, yeah, he's starting right now and he's 179 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: he's shown up. He's looked good. Another person who really 180 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: stuck out to me, Aaron Wallace. Oh yeah, he's playing 181 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: with the ones a lot too. Right now he is 182 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: And it was play after play after play. They had 183 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: him on both sides of the field. He was on 184 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: the off or on the right, he was on the left, 185 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: he was up front, he was back in the back, 186 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: and the guy was everywhere and he made plays every 187 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: single time. He can stay healthy, I think he can 188 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: help this team. See the other guy that stuck out 189 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: to me, Taywan Taylor. Didn't say his name a lot. No, 190 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: he only caught one pass, yes, but he was there, 191 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: he was working. You could tell that he knew where 192 00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: he was supposed to be. Okay, and that's a big part. 193 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: And then he's running with the first team. I'll keep 194 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: running with the first team. He didn't look Honestly, early on, 195 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: we were all a little bit worried about our guy, 196 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: Taywan Taylor talking about back in the spring. In the spring, yeah, 197 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: we were worried about him. It was a slow start. 198 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 1: But he's up to speed now. Yeah, he knows where 199 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: he should be, he knows what he should be doing. 200 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: He's going one hundred percent. I was impressed. All right, yep, 201 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: what's your second one? My second one is actually a 202 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: little down the charts from people but then the head coach, 203 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: the head coach went big on him today for me 204 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: six four three oh seven, second year man from Chattanooga, 205 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: Corey Levin in the offensive line. Ah, yes, So Corey 206 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: Levin played over fifty snaps in this game, roughly thirty 207 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: at center and then twenty five or so at the 208 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: guard spot. According to the PF grading, he graded very well. 209 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: And then earlier today in his press availability, Mike Vrabel 210 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: was asked about Corey Levin's performance. This is what he said. 211 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 1: I thought Corey played his best game as a Titan. Um, 212 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: you know, going back through last year and this year 213 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: looked like everything really came together for him. Well, um, 214 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: talking about all the fundamentals. His hands were inside, he 215 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: was finishing guys down the field. Um, so he really did. 216 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: It was good to see him take the next step. 217 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: Do I really need to add anything to that? That's 218 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: the head coach. Yeah, that's pretty good. I feel pretty 219 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: good about it, though, because this was one of my 220 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: thoughts and then the head coach totally validates me. It 221 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: really does, because oftentimes in years of doing this, you'll 222 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: go up to the coach say hey, I thought so 223 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: and so played really well and they'll go, oh, he's poor. 224 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: That was poor, and you're like, really, um, I don't 225 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: know what I'm watching, but I was. I was watching. 226 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: I was watching him play, and I'm really happy for 227 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: this guy. This guy's really battling to make it in 228 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: his second year. In essence, last year took a red shirt. 229 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 1: He's improved. They're excited about him. I know all those 230 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: Chattanooga MOC fans out there excited about him. So, Corey eleven, 231 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: nice step. Now he puts himself on the front line. 232 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: That's what you do if you're one of these young guys, 233 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: is you put yourself on the line. Now you've got 234 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: to follow it, you know, Now you've got to It's 235 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: just like some of the people got chances to perform 236 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: at Green Bay because they've done well in practice. Now 237 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: you've done well in the first preseason game. Now there's 238 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: going to be an expectation in preseason game number two. 239 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: Well And coach has said that guys who perform well, 240 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: he wants to put them in positions to continue to 241 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: improve and continue to show that they can do that. 242 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: This is your time, Corey eleven. This is your time. 243 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: Amy Wells for your third key point that you'd like 244 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: to make after watching the tape of the Titans and 245 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: the Packers from last Thursday, person who stood out to 246 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: me and stood out enough that they don't deserve to 247 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: be lumped in with their young people. Jayon Brown. Jayon 248 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: Brown has had he had a pick. He's had probably 249 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: the best camp of anybody. I think you could even say, 250 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go a step further. You could even say 251 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: he's had the best off season of any type. Yeah, 252 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: I agree with that. Now. John U. Smith would be 253 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: another player that could be there, and there are others. 254 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota has had a pretty good offseason, no doubt 255 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: about it. But if you're talking about let's take out 256 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: the superstar names and let's just talk about normal guys 257 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: who are trying to move up on the roster. Jayon 258 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: Brown may have had the best offseason of any Titan, 259 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: and he's continued it into training camp. He consistently improves 260 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: every time you see him on tape on the field, 261 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: he's doing something more. He's fast, he's getting to where 262 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: he needs to be. He's made a bunch of plays 263 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: in practice. Now we see him making a play in 264 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: a game. Where's it going to go? Next, Where does 265 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: it go next? Hopefully to the top, hopefully, Well, he 266 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: plays the route. That was really a great comment. I 267 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: didn't know you didn't know where to he plays a 268 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: run better. Yeah, you know, he's not just playing the past. 269 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: He's playing the run, and I mean he's He's done 270 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: a really nice job. And I think gives you a 271 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: better feeling about the linebacker depth than you thought you 272 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: would have when you entered the two eighteen offseason. Linebacker 273 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: depth was a worry because we we had a pretty 274 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: good idea that Williamson was going to take off. I mean, 275 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: he was gonna get a good offer. And you can't. 276 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: You can't afford to pay everybody, right, you just can't. 277 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: And so Williamson gets a big offer, he goes on 278 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: to the Jets, and you say, sad to lose him, 279 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: but good for him. Um. And then Brown comes on 280 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: and is stepping forward. And then Compton has come in 281 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: and played well. And we're still waiting on Rashaun Evans, 282 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 1: but you know, certainly he's a first round pick. We 283 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: feel like he's gonna play really well. He's good at Alabama, Yeah, 284 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: he was very good at Alabama. I think he's gonna 285 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: be very good here and so you feel you feel 286 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: pretty good about your your overall depth at the linebacker 287 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: spot because of his improvement staying at linebacker but moving 288 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: to the outside. My number three guy is Sharif Finch, 289 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: the rookie from Temple, had a couple of really good rushes. 290 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: Looks like he knows what he's doing, plays the run. 291 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: I like Sharif Finch, and he's a guy that I 292 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 1: believe this is a really important Week four. I want 293 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: to see Sharif Finch in these practices against Tampa, rushing 294 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: against their offensive lineman. I want to see him continuing 295 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: into the preseason game. I want to watch more of 296 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: number fifty six because the Titans need depth at outside linebacker. 297 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: We've known that a racpose miss time. You know, he's 298 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: been working out on the side field, so it gives 299 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: you an idea that he's probably not that far away 300 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: from getting back. But he and Morgan, as we know, 301 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: are both in the last year contracts. There Neither are 302 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: younger players anymore. Not to say they both couldn't be back, 303 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: but you've got to You've always got to have in 304 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: mind that these guys have to be in the funnel. 305 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: If you're running a three four defense, you better have 306 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: pass rushers in the funnel ready to go so you 307 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: don't drop off as the Titans did a couple of 308 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: years ago. Remember you know when Morgan missed time, the 309 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: Titans really dropped off without him in the lineup. Now 310 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 1: with Landry, maybe with Finch. You know, some of these 311 00:18:55,160 --> 00:19:02,719 Speaker 1: guys caraways there. Wallace, you're saying, hey, you know, maybe 312 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: it can happen. And while we're optimistic by nature, we're optimistic, 313 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: the proofs still in the pudding, and there's still three 314 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: weeks to go, so we've got to see how it's 315 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: going to work. But I like fifty six. Well, that's good. 316 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: I'm glad you do. He stood out. We'll see. Here's 317 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: a question for you. How important in terms of evaluation 318 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: are the three upcoming two practices in the preseason games huge? 319 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: So we'll call them experiences with Tampa back. It's huge 320 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: because I'm assuming that you have day one, you're going 321 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: up against the guys, right then you have that night 322 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 1: to make adjustments. Right then day two you go up 323 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: against him again. Right. Well, because here's what happens. And 324 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: you said, I don't mean to interrupt you, but this 325 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: is what you get into. It's like, if Jeff Harding, 326 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: who runs the OTP, is blocking me on day one, 327 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: if he's blocking me on Wednesday, if he blocks me 328 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: every single time on Wednesday, I'm gonna walk into meetings 329 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: Wednesday night and my coach is gonna say, Q, let 330 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: that guy block you seriously all day? Really, So then Thursday, 331 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back out there completely fired up, and 332 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: either I'm gonna elevate my game or he's gonna keep 333 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: blocking me. If he keeps blocking me, there's a real 334 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: chance he's just better than me. So then the Jeff's 335 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 1: staff will say, well, Jeff Harding, pretty good. You know 336 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: this guy brought a little extra the next day and 337 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: he's still blocking. If I come back, I showed my 338 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: coaches that I can improve, that I can improve my technique, 339 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: that I can take my level, you know, my level 340 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: up a game in terms of emotion, all of those 341 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: sorts of things. So the two days stand alone, but 342 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: they do build on one another, and then they build 343 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 1: to the game. What if we get there Saturday night, 344 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: Jeff's blocked me for two days, and then Saturday night 345 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: he can't block me. Suddenly I'm making plays. He's in 346 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 1: the game at right tackle and I'm in the game 347 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: at left defensive end and I'm running around him. Well, 348 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: then you start asking a lot of questions. Does he 349 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: have a problem when there's a crowd around? Do I 350 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: get more fired up with the lights on? You know? What? 351 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,239 Speaker 1: Is it? Every day? Is a question? And while he 352 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: has some familiarity with me, he does not have total 353 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: familiarity with my game. Overall, it seems like there are 354 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 1: more tangible, measurable things that you'll see in the next 355 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: three days exactly. And speaking of tangible measurable things coming 356 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: up in the next three days, I want to talk. 357 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: I want to I want to play your discussion with 358 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: Malcolm Butler. Malcolm Butler has been one of the stories 359 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 1: of training camp. He has been certainly one of the 360 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: biggest areas of interest of the Titans. You had a 361 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 1: chance to visit with him last week. I thought it 362 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: was a very interesting talk, and so I want to 363 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: give people a chance to hear me Wells talk with 364 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: Titans corner Malcolm Butler. Malcolm, what is it about you, 365 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,919 Speaker 1: your style of play, your strength that make you so 366 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: well suited for a d PAS defense? Um? You know Basically, 367 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, I always been this way. You know, I 368 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: always been a competitive guy. Good got to be around 369 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: high energy, and you know, helpding Peas out just about 370 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: making plays in his defense, just like everyone else has 371 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: to do. So at the end of the day's all 372 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: about making plays, make your teammates better and everything else. 373 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: Take care of yourself. You've been performing at a really 374 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: high level all throughout training camp. What are you doing 375 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: every day to make sure that you maintain that consistency 376 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 1: day after day? Um, First of all, you know, I 377 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: just tell myself, I'm gonna hell good days, I'm gonna 378 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: have bad days, and I just gotta put both of 379 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: those days, the good days in the bad days behind 380 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: me and just keep preparing for another day. I'm trying 381 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: to build a habit of practicing at a high level 382 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: so I could play at a high level being a corner. 383 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: So much of your job is about having chemistry with 384 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: the guys around you. How hard is it to come 385 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: into a new team and re establish that chemistry. Well, um, 386 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: your chemistry is a big factor. But um, you know 387 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: players been here before I got here, but all the 388 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: coaches got here at the same time. So basically, you know, 389 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: we started from the same place. So the chemistry off 390 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: the field might be better, but the chemistry, the chemistry 391 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: off the field might be you know, better for the 392 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: ones that already been here, But you know, for us, 393 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 1: I only feel, you know, everybody's just getting here. All 394 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: the coaches, the defensive schemes, so everybody's start from scratching, 395 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: just gotta be up from there. How that is going 396 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: up against this Titans offense make you better every day. Um, 397 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: guys like to compete, you know what. I'm seeing things 398 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: that you know, I never thought I'll see, you know, 399 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: coming into my fifth year in the NFL, So I'm 400 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: seeing things I've never seen, you know, getting beat by 401 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: guys that I did never heard of that. Let me know, 402 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 1: you never get on it estimate any player in the NFL. 403 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: So I'm just preparing myself for all situations, good and whatever. 404 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: You have a history of being on Super Bowl winning teams, 405 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: what advice or words of wisdom can you bring to 406 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 1: guys here who haven't been on those teams. Um, it's 407 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: just everybody do their job. Everybody do their particular job 408 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,239 Speaker 1: they got they got, so you know, you don't need 409 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: to do anyone else's job. Just need to do yours 410 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: and if everybody just do their job, everything gonna be right. So, 411 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: you know, we gotta be good on offense, defense, special teams. 412 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: We just gotta be good all the way around the board. 413 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: We gotta do the little things that matter that you 414 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: think that don't matter the most. It's all about winning. 415 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 1: Describe for me Carry Combs as a coach. We see 416 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 1: him running around. He's very loud. What is he like 417 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: with you guys? Coach carry Man has a lot of energy. Man, 418 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: I think the Titans might have to, you know, de 419 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: duct from his payroll so he could stay out of 420 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: that coffee because he'd be real cranky. But you know 421 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: that's that's good for the it's good for the secondary. 422 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: He's an older guy, but man, he got young energy. 423 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,120 Speaker 1: And then make us, you know, play better and let's 424 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: make us more younger. And um, he just want to win. 425 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: Oh he just won't great players. And this is first 426 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: year in the NFL, and here I'll say that it 427 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like so great guy, great coach. Is that 428 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: energy motivating to you to match his level of energy 429 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: or is that untouchable? We might be nick for Nick, 430 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: but I'm not as consistent as he is. You know, 431 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: he want to fly around every thirty minutes, now every 432 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: five minutes. He just got it. Man, He's just one 433 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: of those coaches that he's a ball of energy. Same 434 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: question about Mike Vybel, What is he like as a 435 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: head coach. Mike Verbell. He's bitter sweet. You know he 436 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: can be He could be mean sometimes, he could be nice. 437 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: You know, it's not too much niceness. It's not too much. 438 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: He's not being too nice. He's not being too mean. 439 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: You know, he's just right. You know, he right, he neutral, 440 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: He right there in the middle. And that's great. Great balance. 441 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: You've been a pro bowler, You've won a Super Bowl, 442 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: You've been a highly sought after free agent, you've gotten 443 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 1: the big contract. What is still on your bucket? Less? 444 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 1: You know, continue playing great man, have a great, great year. 445 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 1: You know, help others. You know they ain't now all 446 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: the way it's about you. So I got to help 447 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: others and just help this team win. And you know 448 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: I want to be great individually and as a team, 449 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 1: so and make plays. There's some younger guys in the 450 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: defensive back room. Are you able to step into that 451 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,479 Speaker 1: veteran role a little bit, even though you're new here 452 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: as well. Well. Basically, you know, I earned my respect 453 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: before I say anything you show.

I mean, 469 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: not only is he flashed and been uh one of 470 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: the rising stars in this camp. UH incredible story behind 471 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: his effort On Thursday, and I talked to him a 472 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: little bit about a little bit about it after practice 473 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: the day he lost his father at the start of 474 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: training camp and was his father's funeral on Monday, and 475 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: then is playing in lambeau Field three days later. He 476 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: lost his father Monday to a heart attack. His sudden 477 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: when of twenty one children, uh was just which is incredible. 478 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: And he lost his mother to breast cancer in two 479 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: thy fifteen. So he just talked about the emotions of 480 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: that day, that he'd worked his whole life to get 481 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: to the NFL, and said why he wasn't with him, 482 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: uh physically, he was with him in spirit on Thursday night, 483 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: and said he knows angels are watching over him. So 484 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: a really special performance from a guy who's uh certainly 485 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: motivated and uh and and had to deal with a 486 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: lot of emotions here in his first NFL training camp 487 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: and he's knocking on the door.

I was watching him after practice today, 490 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: Derek Morgan spending some time with him, teaching him, you know, 491 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: another way to get to the quarterback. I think the 492 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: team was really high on him and very productive at 493 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: Temple and with Brian Richbol being sideline. He's in other 494 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: guy that's getting more opportunities and taking advantage of them. 495 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: All right, So can we go through your three observations 496 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: about the Titans after you've watched the tape from the game. Yeah, 497 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: and some I'm gonna touch observations and some of our 498 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: nago show up on tape. You know. One of them 499 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: is Marcus Mariota's new pregame routine. Try to find interesting, Now, 500 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: what was that? Well, usually, as you guys know, Marcus, 501 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: I mean he comes out at fifty minutes before a 502 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: kickoff in uniform, going through uh, you know, going through 503 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: pregame warmups. That's the first time we see it. We've 504 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: seen of him in his first three NFL seasons. Every 505 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: quarterback does it differently. You know. Steve mcnires just come 506 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: out three three and a half hours before the game. 507 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: He would throw with Joey Bronco, the team's equipment manager, 508 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: and then he would go back inside and take a 509 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: nap and uh, and then he'd come back out for warmups. 510 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: And other quarterbacks have gone out there are thrown with 511 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: the receivers. Peyton Manning's routine legendary tree. Yeah, thrown with 512 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison and way back in those days. And but 513 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: Marcus has always been a guy who worked kind of 514 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: underneath the stadium, you know, God just set himself ready 515 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: to play in the locker room, kind of in the 516 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: bowels of the stadium. You know. Sometimes saw him. I 517 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: saw him before one of those scrimmages at the stadium 518 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: where he was kind of warming up in that long hallway. 519 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: But this time he went out there early, was throw 520 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: did some throwing, did some stretching. Uh. He said he's 521 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: gonna try something different. You know. It wasn't just a 522 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: lambeau Field thing, he said, it's something that he's thought 523 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: about during the course of this offseason. Wants to go 524 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 1: through routine. He said he felt that it had him 525 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: ready to play. And so it's gonna be something to 526 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: watch here moving forward with Marcus Mariota as he prepares 527 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: for games. He's already topped us. I think, well, yeah, 528 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 1: I mean he comes through with an interesting one. We're 529 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 1: just talking about like players and stuff. Yeah, ours was 530 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: really kind of boring. Got a football, got a straight football, 531 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: all right, give us number two. Let's see if he continues. 532 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: Oh come, I hate to say, this is not showing 533 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: up on tape either. I guess well, it shows up 534 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: on tape, but not in between the lines. Matt Lafleur 535 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: on the sideline of games, which I think is uh 536 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 1: interesting to see how this was gonna play out. Mattla 537 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: Floor has always been kind of an upstairs guy. I 538 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: think with a young quarterback with a young offense, I 539 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: think he feels like he needs to be there to 540 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: communicate to maybe uh you know, maybe settled players down 541 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 1: during the course of the year. Again, nothing's been decided 542 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: on where he's going to be once the season starts. 543 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: Mike Vrabels ask about it again today. I think they're 544 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 1: just trying some things out. But I think that's something 545 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: to watch moving forward, is where does he end up 546 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: and how much help does he is he able to 547 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: give being down there on the field in the heat 548 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: of the moment as opposed to seeing things from upstairs 549 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: and kind of being on a headset with Pat O'Hara, 550 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: who was the quarterbacks coach, who was upstairs for the 551 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: game on Thursday night. All right, so we got the 552 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: Mariota routine, we got where is Matt? Where in the 553 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: world is Matt Lafleur, You like that thank you, thank you, 554 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: all right, give us your third one third one is 555 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: Nick Williams. Uh And I don't know if you guys 556 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: addressed him either game, But Nick Williams I didn't have 557 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: really when this camp started and I started doing the 558 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: math and who are the six five or six guys 559 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: that were gonna make it? I didn't need to include 560 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: Nick Williams on that in that list of six players. 561 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: Now I think he's a factor at some of it's 562 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: because some of the playing time he's getting. It is 563 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: because Rochard Matthews has been out, Corey Dave has been 564 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: out a little bit, who's now back, Michael Campanero has 565 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: been off and on. So Nick Williams getting more of 566 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: a chance to play. And he made a big catch 567 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: and a great run. He made a nice play on 568 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: special teams practice today. He was out there catching punts. 569 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: The more you can do, the better chance you have 570 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: of making the team. And suddenly a guy who I 571 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: thought was maybe seven or eight in the pecking order 572 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: is now I think found his way into the top six. 573 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: A lot of stuff can happen, you know, between now 574 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: and the time roster cut er made. But Nick Williams 575 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: is a guy to keep an eye on. And I 576 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: think he started to show that on Thursday night. It 577 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: does feel like he kind of came out of nowhere, 578 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: doesn't it. You know, we we were talking about different 579 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 1: guys that had stood out. We're talking about Devin Ross, 580 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: We're talking about Darius Jennings, all these people. All of 581 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: a sudden, Nick Williams is part of this conversation. It's 582 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: someone said to me, for Nick Williams, it feels as 583 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: if new job is too small, And that kind of 584 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: sounds like a John Robinson bad doesn't. Yeah, that sounds 585 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: like exactly the type of person they're looking for. Yeah, 586 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: and he's not speaking as small. He's not a big guy. 587 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: I'm not standing next to Dean Lewis is a big man. 588 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: But he's listed at five four, So I mean he's 589 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: a scrappy guy. And we saw that, you know, when 590 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: he was covering, when he was covering and making a 591 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: tackle down around the ten yard line. So pretty feisty 592 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: guy who knows the offense. And as your best trait 593 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: sometimes is availability, and he is. He has been available, 594 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: has been practicing. He's taking advantage of opportunities because other 595 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: guys have not been out there. Good stuff. Bart. We're 596 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: glad you came in and I look forward to reading 597 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: your story about Sharif Finch too. When will that be posted? 598 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: It was posted about two minutes before I walked in here, 599 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: so it's written and posted, all right, so people would 600 00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: have a chance to yes. Good. All right, So let's 601 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: talk talk to about practice today inside. What jumped out 602 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 1: to you, Jim White? Anything specific? I think a great 603 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: day for Corey Davis. You know he Oh, he was 604 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 1: on fun. He was back to back days. I mean 605 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: we've kind of forgotten about him a little bit, not 606 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: not forgotten about him, but obviously he was kind of 607 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: out of sight a little bit as they were trying 608 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: to ease him back. He's back with a vengeance. He 609 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: had a good day on Sunday, had another good day 610 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: to day, made a catch on a long ball for Mariota, 611 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 1: made a couple of catches across the middle of the field. 612 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: He's a different player, I mean, this is a different 613 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: team in a different offense when he's out there, So 614 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 1: I thought he had a good day. I think Taija 615 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: Sharks put together a couple of nice days in practice, 616 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: and Dere's Jennings closed out practice with a catch of 617 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: the day over Lashawn Simms, who had picked up an 618 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: interception on a ball intended for Jennings early in practice. 619 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: Dere's Jennings. Another guy that's not going away, Nope, he's not. 620 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: You know who else had a good day today? Devin Ross. 621 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: Devin Ross has made a move. And for those of 622 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: you who don't know him, five nine one ninety two 623 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: rookie receiver out of Colorado, from that group of undrafted receivers, 624 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 1: Ross seems to be the guy at least at this 625 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: moment with the most momentum. Absolutely, He's had just back 626 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 1: to back consistent days. He just keeps stringing them together. 627 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,399 Speaker 1: And I feel like every day I'm writing him down 628 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: for some sort of play he made, some sort of 629 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 1: thing that sticks out to me. Ye about ran over 630 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: me on that one. He had a catch on the 631 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 1: sideline where he got both his feet down. It was 632 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 1: right in front of me and luckily he went I 633 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: was able to sidestep them. But a heck of a 634 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: catch he made there. And he's a guy I do 635 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: you know, notes out of practice every day and kind 636 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: of jot down what kind of stands out for observations, 637 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: and he seems like eighty three's on that list every 638 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: single day. I thought Mariota had a good day. Yes, yeah, 639 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: I'd agree with you there. I think he looked sharp, 640 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: and you know, people are some people are alarmed over 641 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: the interceptions that he's thrown in camp this year, as 642 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 1: opposed to previous camps where he went so long without one. 643 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: I think we've talked here on THETP before about that 644 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 1: streak of a two hundred and thirty throws without interception 645 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 1: to start his rookie camp. I think I think he's 646 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 1: taken some chances with balls, given receivers a chance to 647 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: make plays. The defense is better. But I think what 648 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: I've seen from him is that his camp has gone on. 649 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 1: It really is. The off season's gone on. He got better, 650 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,959 Speaker 1: you know, in OTAs, he got better in mini camp, 651 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: and I think training camp has gone on. He's having 652 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 1: more moments than he did at the start of this thing. Well, 653 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: you got to think about it. He's getting more comfortable 654 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: in this system. He's getting more comfortable throwing to people 655 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: who he's not used to throwing too. I mean, the 656 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 1: people that we thought were going to be starters and 657 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 1: who still conceivably could be those starters haven't been on 658 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 1: the field. We haven't seen Richard Matthews. We Corey's kind 659 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: of been on and off, so he's getting into a 660 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: groove with some strangers for the most part, you know. 661 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: So I think that there is the fact that we 662 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 1: are noticing consistent improvement and we're noticing him settle in 663 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: around this time. That seems to make a lot of 664 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: sense to me. Tomorrow is an off day for the Titans. 665 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: Remind you that we will have Titans Radio six o'clock 666 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 1: tomorrow night, the very first ever Mike Vrabel Show six 667 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 1: to seven Central Time on Titans Radio.
