1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,320 Speaker 1: What's up, Mick? How are you, sir? I'm doing great. 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: It's good to hear your voice. JP. I've I've been 3 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: listening to your your podcasting and looking on your website 4 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: and hearing you and Demp seeing the rest of the 5 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,960 Speaker 1: boys kind of chop it up down there, and we're 6 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing Jacksonville. And you're right, it's i think, 7 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: from a pantom perspective, it's almost like looking into a 8 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: mirror when Carolina looks at Jacksonville. The rock star young 9 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 1: QB is the great running backs and a pretty salty 10 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: defense on on both both sides of the field. On something. 11 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: It should be a fun matchup this week for sure, 12 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: that the Jags and the Panthers coming up. Let's start 13 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: with that offense. You know, Cam Newton comes off the field, 14 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: he's he said he kind of hid the extent of 15 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: his injury. And it's a different feel around here in 16 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: the quarterback position in Jacksonville, right because Nick Foles is 17 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: a new guy to the organization and all of a 18 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 1: sudden min shows coming in and he's the fan favorite. 19 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: Kyle Allen's coming up there and played well, But this 20 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: is still Cam Newton's team, right is he gonna be 21 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: back at some point. And and how much can Kyle 22 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: Allen really get done at quarterback? Oh? Great questions. All 23 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody from North Turner on RIVERA. 24 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: I think the talking heads on the TV. So I 25 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: think everybody is trying to decode this right now. And 26 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: I've pressed my face against the glass, peering in at 27 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: the nuances the inner workings of this football team, trying 28 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: to answer it my own self. And the best I 29 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,559 Speaker 1: can come up with is and that You're gonna hate 30 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: me for saying this, but I'm swear to you this 31 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: is what I'm getting back, is that the Panthers are 32 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: just looking at this week to week. If you try 33 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: to fast forward the tape and say, okay, what do 34 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: you do if you're six and three or five and two, 35 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: and then Cam Newton comes back and he's ready? Do 36 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: you mess with a hot hand? Do you can? Can? 37 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,919 Speaker 1: Can a player lose his starting gig because of injury 38 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: or not? As that old football saw hold water. So 39 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: I really think there's some wisdom in just looking at 40 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: it one week at a time. And and and the 41 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: kid Kyle Allen's playing very very well. He's slinging the 42 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: ball around. He's he's incredibly accurate. The teams seems to 43 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: have rallied around him, and that would include Cam Newton 44 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: rallying around Kyle Allen to try to get as many 45 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: wins as possible. And it could be that Cam Newton 46 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: doesn't come back. He could envision a circumstance where his 47 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: foot just will not allow him to to compete at 48 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: the level with which he's become accustomed. And and it 49 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: could be Kyle in the in the starting quarterbacks chair 50 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: for the for the rest of the season. Who knows 51 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: mc mixon with his voice of the Carolina Panthers that 52 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: running back Christian McCaffrey's forty five percent of the yardage 53 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: this year for Carolina. He's missed four snaps all season. Uh, 54 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: the guy's everywhere and literally everybody lines up all over 55 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: the field. It's a it's a tough matchup this week. Now. 56 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: He's terrible. I mean, he's no talent. Bum I would 57 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: say to your coaches, just focus on other things. Make 58 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: sure you double team uh tight end and and make 59 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: sure you got coverage. Rotating over to d J. Moore 60 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: and Curtis Samuel um all art testing is this one 61 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: I'm getting around. I think you're right. McCaffrey is a 62 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: generational talent. I mean, just by any objective analysis, doesn't 63 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: matter whether his skin color is white or black, or 64 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: pink or antifreeze green. The kids just any era, tough, 65 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: multifaceted football player, a total pro. Quiet, keeps his mouth shut, 66 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: hard to get much out of him, although he is 67 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: very funny if you could get him to open up. 68 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 1: He's a he's a sort of a well camouflaged student 69 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: of pop culture, old movies, old TV shows, music. He's 70 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: he's fun to talk to, but he prefers just to 71 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: let his athletic ability do the talking for him. Defensively, 72 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: this is a Carolina group that's very very strong upfront. 73 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: Obviously the pass rush they're getting home with all the 74 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: sacks and everything, but they lead the league in quarterback kids, 75 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: and they've had over the last year or so some 76 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: additions they're up front, and the front seven obviously keep 77 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: with them in a linebacker spot, but up front, defensive line, 78 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: pass rushers, outside linebackers. They keep bringing these guys in 79 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: and it's built into a great front seven here can 80 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: almost argue, yeah, with all the talent of a Christian 81 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: McCaffrey and how slippery he is, and and the attention 82 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: at quarterback that you and I have talked of already 83 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: here today, I think that you could make a case 84 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: for the real heartbeat of this Panther team. And if 85 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: Jacksonville is gonna win the game, this is what they've 86 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: got to break the riddle on, and that is this 87 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: fierce Panther pass rush. Where there's a there's a depth, 88 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 1: there's a multiplicity, there's a ferocity with which these guys 89 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: attack the path, the pocket and pressure the the opposing 90 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: team's quarterback in old line and you know starts in 91 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: the middle. Dontari Poe has lost some weight and he's 92 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: playing great dancers feet and big heavy body, three fifty 93 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: pounds and he's disruptive. We won the Jerald McCoy sweepstakes. 94 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: In the off season. We signed Bruce Irwin, the mean, 95 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: nasty former Seattle Seahawks, so he's in there. Mario Addison 96 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: super Mario. Mario can line up inside outside, sometimes to 97 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 1: line up way out about the concession stand. Brian Burns, 98 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: the rookie, very spidery, willowy athlete. He's done well. So 99 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: so I agree with the premise of your question. J P.
