1
00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,668
Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in

2
00:00:06,748 --> 00:00:10,228
Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio.

3
00:00:10,788 --> 00:00:13,348
Speaker 2: It's Good Morning Football on a Monday. We're live in

4
00:00:13,468 --> 00:00:16,228
Speaker 2: LA and New York as always, August Course, Jamie Eerdl Mantiteo,

5
00:00:16,348 --> 00:00:20,068
Speaker 2: Kyle Brant, Will black Men at the breakfast table this morning.

6
00:00:20,308 --> 00:00:23,228
Speaker 2: We already got a bunch of the contract conversations out

7
00:00:23,228 --> 00:00:23,868
Speaker 2: of our system.

8
00:00:24,028 --> 00:00:26,948
Speaker 3: Cowboys commanders, we got you. Kyle.

9
00:00:26,988 --> 00:00:29,348
Speaker 2: There's a segment coming up this hour as it pertains

10
00:00:29,348 --> 00:00:32,628
Speaker 2: to training camp tweets. Is that something that makes you

11
00:00:32,788 --> 00:00:35,068
Speaker 2: hunk out or is this a joyful review?

12
00:00:36,428 --> 00:00:40,788
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's something that the kids call shoudenfreude about training

13
00:00:40,788 --> 00:00:44,228
Speaker 1: camp quarterbacks, and shouting freuda means enjoying someone else's misery.

14
00:00:44,508 --> 00:00:47,108
Speaker 1: There is one quarterback that gets more than any other, and.

15
00:00:47,028 --> 00:00:47,948
Speaker 4: I'm not here for it.

16
00:00:48,028 --> 00:00:50,748
Speaker 1: But if you didn't watch SummerSlam over the weekend, a

17
00:00:50,868 --> 00:00:54,228
Speaker 1: former Good Morning Football host absolutely stole the show. You

18
00:00:54,308 --> 00:00:56,628
Speaker 1: should have seen Schrager up on the top rope, jumping

19
00:00:56,668 --> 00:00:58,108
Speaker 1: off in power bombing brock Less.

20
00:00:58,268 --> 00:01:01,708
Speaker 4: It was amazing. Good Morning Football starts now. Great job, Peter,

21
00:01:15,468 --> 00:01:17,108
Speaker 4: Good football.

22
00:01:17,428 --> 00:01:20,508
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, it's Good Morning Football. Welcome inside, everybody,

23
00:01:20,548 --> 00:01:23,308
Speaker 2: Kyle Brant Will Black comman'c I teo Jamie Erdaal.

24
00:01:23,428 --> 00:01:25,748
Speaker 3: Kyle in the We're Going to Get to Football.

25
00:01:25,788 --> 00:01:27,748
Speaker 2: But like it's been a big summer for the movies.

26
00:01:28,028 --> 00:01:30,668
Speaker 2: I feel like we haven't reviewed properly with you what

27
00:01:30,788 --> 00:01:32,068
Speaker 2: you have seen. I know there was one you were

28
00:01:32,108 --> 00:01:33,468
Speaker 2: going to see with your son when he got back

29
00:01:33,508 --> 00:01:35,188
Speaker 2: from camp, and now we have the Naked Gun thing

30
00:01:35,228 --> 00:01:38,028
Speaker 2: which is taking off. What's the latest on the Brant

31
00:01:38,068 --> 00:01:38,988
Speaker 2: cinema experience.

32
00:01:39,548 --> 00:01:41,788
Speaker 1: I saw Superman in the theater a couple of weeks ago,

33
00:01:42,188 --> 00:01:43,428
Speaker 1: and I don't know if you guys have seen it.

34
00:01:43,828 --> 00:01:45,748
Speaker 1: The Superman was great, The Lowest Lane was great, That

35
00:01:45,828 --> 00:01:47,708
Speaker 1: Lex Luthor was great. The funny thing is that Mike

36
00:01:47,748 --> 00:01:50,868
Speaker 1: Francessa had a viral rant about the Superman movie how

37
00:01:50,868 --> 00:01:53,748
Speaker 1: we hated it because Superman just gets beat up the

38
00:01:53,748 --> 00:01:56,468
Speaker 1: whole time. I do agree with the second part. From

39
00:01:56,548 --> 00:01:58,748
Speaker 1: the opening frames of the movie, over the next two

40
00:01:58,748 --> 00:02:01,668
Speaker 1: and a half hours, Superman just gets slapped around and

41
00:02:01,708 --> 00:02:03,708
Speaker 1: beat up into a pulp and it's like, That's not

42
00:02:03,708 --> 00:02:06,388
Speaker 1: what I'm looking for for my entertainment dollar. It's like,

43
00:02:06,428 --> 00:02:08,228
Speaker 1: if you want to go see Joe Burrow and you

44
00:02:08,308 --> 00:02:10,788
Speaker 1: just hand it off forty times a game. Let's Superman

45
00:02:10,908 --> 00:02:13,308
Speaker 1: out a little bit. I haven't seen Naked Gun yet,

46
00:02:13,348 --> 00:02:15,828
Speaker 1: but based on the reviews, I'll get there. It's going

47
00:02:15,868 --> 00:02:17,828
Speaker 1: to be incredible. I can't wait. And no thank you

48
00:02:17,868 --> 00:02:19,028
Speaker 1: on the nightcap. I don't wear.

49
00:02:18,908 --> 00:02:23,268
Speaker 4: Them an insideline. Guys, don't worry about it. Just trust me.

50
00:02:23,388 --> 00:02:24,268
Speaker 4: I know. I'm just letting it.

51
00:02:24,428 --> 00:02:26,988
Speaker 2: I'm just letting this book I was trying to make it.

52
00:02:27,148 --> 00:02:28,948
Speaker 2: I was trying to make a parallel between a quarterback

53
00:02:28,988 --> 00:02:30,828
Speaker 2: getting slapped around. People don't see that, but I didn't

54
00:02:30,828 --> 00:02:32,948
Speaker 2: want to do that to anybody. So instead, let's just

55
00:02:32,988 --> 00:02:34,188
Speaker 2: head to Latroe, Pennsylvania.

56
00:02:34,228 --> 00:02:34,828
Speaker 3: Shall we wear.

57
00:02:34,748 --> 00:02:37,188
Speaker 2: Steelers fans hope that does not happen to their quarterback

58
00:02:37,388 --> 00:02:40,748
Speaker 2: as we take a look at a beautiful August fourth

59
00:02:40,828 --> 00:02:43,148
Speaker 2: slow mo of Aaron Rodgers throwing.

60
00:02:42,868 --> 00:02:44,548
Speaker 3: To DK Metcalf, because.

61
00:02:44,268 --> 00:02:47,428
Speaker 2: It's not training camp unless we see a slow motion,

62
00:02:47,588 --> 00:02:51,228
Speaker 2: perfectly spiral ball from quarterback to wide receiver to elicit

63
00:02:51,348 --> 00:02:54,108
Speaker 2: such hope and optimism for an offense that you just

64
00:02:54,188 --> 00:02:56,668
Speaker 2: hope that this kind of thing happens in week eighteen

65
00:02:57,068 --> 00:02:59,388
Speaker 2: and not just the first week of training camp. Yesterday

66
00:02:59,428 --> 00:03:01,708
Speaker 2: on Insight Training Camp, Ian Rappaport and sees the senior

67
00:03:01,788 --> 00:03:04,628
Speaker 2: actually askedkm Metcalf if some of those workouts that used

68
00:03:04,668 --> 00:03:07,468
Speaker 2: to engage in at UCLA in the spring has helped

69
00:03:07,468 --> 00:03:08,468
Speaker 2: their connection.

70
00:03:08,308 --> 00:03:08,948
Speaker 3: Now and camp.

71
00:03:10,548 --> 00:03:13,108
Speaker 5: Getting those live team reps is nothing like you know,

72
00:03:13,308 --> 00:03:16,228
Speaker 5: getting you know, the eleven on eleven reps with the

73
00:03:16,348 --> 00:03:18,988
Speaker 5: QB Center exchange, making sure the old line has a

74
00:03:19,028 --> 00:03:21,908
Speaker 5: block of the assignments going against that reckless defense that

75
00:03:21,948 --> 00:03:23,828
Speaker 5: we got on the other side of the ball. Every

76
00:03:24,028 --> 00:03:27,068
Speaker 5: every player I get to go against either JPJ, Jalen

77
00:03:27,428 --> 00:03:30,228
Speaker 5: or Slay, So I'm always getting better in that aspect. So,

78
00:03:31,268 --> 00:03:34,548
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, the off season workout helps, but it

79
00:03:34,628 --> 00:03:36,668
Speaker 5: doesn't doesn't compare to real football once you put the

80
00:03:36,668 --> 00:03:39,708
Speaker 5: ball down in training camp and you know, helmets are classing.

81
00:03:39,308 --> 00:03:41,268
Speaker 3: And everything, counlets are clashing.

82
00:03:41,268 --> 00:03:43,588
Speaker 2: We love it. Outside of Aaron Rodgers, Guys, when you

83
00:03:43,588 --> 00:03:46,388
Speaker 2: look at the Steelers, and maybe you just readdressed the

84
00:03:46,428 --> 00:03:48,988
Speaker 2: initial question, which is I'm calling Aaron Rodgers the most

85
00:03:48,988 --> 00:03:51,108
Speaker 2: important person on the Steelers as it pertains to their

86
00:03:51,148 --> 00:03:53,708
Speaker 2: success in twenty twenty five. Outside of him, if you

87
00:03:53,788 --> 00:03:56,388
Speaker 2: view him as such, who is the next most important person?

88
00:03:56,428 --> 00:03:56,828
Speaker 3: MANSI?

89
00:03:57,148 --> 00:03:58,508
Speaker 6: Well, you could go a lot of people by I

90
00:03:58,548 --> 00:03:59,708
Speaker 6: got to say it's got to.

91
00:03:59,628 --> 00:04:02,108
Speaker 4: Be Cam Hayward. And listen to me on this all right,

92
00:04:02,628 --> 00:04:03,148
Speaker 4: when you.

93
00:04:03,028 --> 00:04:06,588
Speaker 6: Talk about TJJ Wall, Alex high Smith, Nick Herbig, you

94
00:04:06,628 --> 00:04:09,108
Speaker 6: don't have that production if you don't have a guy

95
00:04:09,188 --> 00:04:12,748
Speaker 6: like Cam Hayward pushing the middle of that offensive line back.

96
00:04:13,028 --> 00:04:16,228
Speaker 6: Not to mention Arthur Smith and this run first, run

97
00:04:16,268 --> 00:04:19,708
Speaker 6: heavy approach, that type of approach is really great. However,

98
00:04:20,388 --> 00:04:23,828
Speaker 6: that type of offense doesn't have the scoring, the scoring

99
00:04:23,908 --> 00:04:27,468
Speaker 6: power to get a lead if they to catch a lead,

100
00:04:27,548 --> 00:04:30,108
Speaker 6: if they fall behind. So in those cases where the

101
00:04:30,188 --> 00:04:33,708
Speaker 6: Pittsburgh Steelers are behind in the game, you're gonna need

102
00:04:33,748 --> 00:04:37,068
Speaker 6: the defense to step up. And obviously an offense that

103
00:04:37,228 --> 00:04:39,028
Speaker 6: is going against this defense is going to try to

104
00:04:39,068 --> 00:04:41,508
Speaker 6: run the ball a lot and you can't. You can't

105
00:04:41,548 --> 00:04:43,508
Speaker 6: have a good run defense. And I know this as

106
00:04:43,508 --> 00:04:47,028
Speaker 6: a linebacker without a dominant interior d lineman, and Cam

107
00:04:47,068 --> 00:04:49,228
Speaker 6: Hayward has been that for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

108
00:04:49,548 --> 00:04:52,908
Speaker 4: So in pertaining what pertains.

109
00:04:52,508 --> 00:04:55,508
Speaker 6: To the Steelers offense and the Steelers success so far,

110
00:04:55,588 --> 00:04:57,828
Speaker 6: I got to say that Cam Hayward has to be

111
00:04:57,868 --> 00:04:59,508
Speaker 6: that guy beside Aaron Rodgers.

112
00:04:59,508 --> 00:05:00,348
Speaker 4: If they want to have.

113
00:05:00,468 --> 00:05:03,428
Speaker 6: A successful twenty twenty five campaign, they have to stop

114
00:05:03,468 --> 00:05:06,028
Speaker 6: their run. They have to be able to limit the

115
00:05:06,308 --> 00:05:08,628
Speaker 6: offensive opportunities for their opponent. And it's going to start

116
00:05:08,708 --> 00:05:11,868
Speaker 6: up the middle with Cam Hanbyworth, Cam Hayward Will Yeah.

117
00:05:11,748 --> 00:05:13,788
Speaker 7: I'm going to go to the running back room. I'm

118
00:05:13,788 --> 00:05:16,428
Speaker 7: gonna say the running backs for the Steelers, especially now

119
00:05:16,428 --> 00:05:19,548
Speaker 7: with Aaron Rodgers. Obviously he's forty years old, he's not

120
00:05:19,828 --> 00:05:21,508
Speaker 7: you really want to put the whole bulk on him,

121
00:05:21,548 --> 00:05:23,708
Speaker 7: like I guess Tom Brady's last year where he led

122
00:05:23,708 --> 00:05:25,708
Speaker 7: the league in passing. But the reason why I want

123
00:05:25,708 --> 00:05:27,548
Speaker 7: to mention the running backs because you're in a defense

124
00:05:27,868 --> 00:05:30,628
Speaker 7: your in division where it's like really dominant with defense, right,

125
00:05:30,668 --> 00:05:33,348
Speaker 7: and how are you able to nullify these pass rushes? Well,

126
00:05:33,428 --> 00:05:35,388
Speaker 7: get the running backs involved, right? How are they in

127
00:05:35,428 --> 00:05:38,108
Speaker 7: pass protection? How are they getting out? He's going to

128
00:05:38,148 --> 00:05:39,868
Speaker 7: see a lot of too high shell because they want

129
00:05:39,908 --> 00:05:42,268
Speaker 7: to sit and be able to play defense overall. So

130
00:05:42,308 --> 00:05:44,748
Speaker 7: how do you attack that? Use the running backs? In

131
00:05:44,868 --> 00:05:48,908
Speaker 7: three of Aaron Rodgers' MVP seasons, the running backs ranked

132
00:05:48,948 --> 00:05:51,868
Speaker 7: in the top eleven and receiving and rushing. You go

133
00:05:51,908 --> 00:05:54,348
Speaker 7: to Tom Brady's year his final year with the Bucks.

134
00:05:54,388 --> 00:05:57,188
Speaker 7: I mean they were top five in totallyalls rushing as

135
00:05:57,188 --> 00:05:58,908
Speaker 7: the running backs, and they were in the top ten

136
00:05:58,948 --> 00:06:01,348
Speaker 7: in terms of receiving same thing. Peyton Manning when he

137
00:06:01,388 --> 00:06:04,788
Speaker 7: won MVP at age thirty seven, his running backs, they

138
00:06:04,788 --> 00:06:07,108
Speaker 7: were ranked in the top ten in receiving a rush.

139
00:06:07,148 --> 00:06:10,668
Speaker 7: And so you know what, Jayleen Warren, Caleb Johnson and

140
00:06:10,748 --> 00:06:12,908
Speaker 7: Kenneth Gainwell and Chase Trummers there as well. I think

141
00:06:12,988 --> 00:06:15,548
Speaker 7: just overall, as a runner back committee, if they can

142
00:06:15,868 --> 00:06:18,588
Speaker 7: pretty much do their part, is gonna really alleviate a lot.

143
00:06:18,628 --> 00:06:20,588
Speaker 7: Because if you've got the play action Aaron Rodgers is

144
00:06:20,628 --> 00:06:22,508
Speaker 7: gonna be extremely dangerous. So if the runner back room

145
00:06:22,508 --> 00:06:24,628
Speaker 7: could do their job, I think to meet outside of

146
00:06:24,628 --> 00:06:27,748
Speaker 7: everyone else, Like obviously the obvious answers are like you

147
00:06:27,788 --> 00:06:30,828
Speaker 7: mentioned TJ and Aaron, But I think the running back

148
00:06:30,868 --> 00:06:31,468
Speaker 7: room is great.

149
00:06:32,068 --> 00:06:34,428
Speaker 1: I think the obvious answer is the guy holding the reins.

150
00:06:34,468 --> 00:06:36,748
Speaker 1: I think it's Arthur Smith, the offensive coordinator. This is

151
00:06:36,748 --> 00:06:39,188
Speaker 1: an interesting thing here. He has a guy who is

152
00:06:39,308 --> 00:06:42,868
Speaker 1: forty three, his quarterback is forty one. They're from the

153
00:06:42,868 --> 00:06:45,468
Speaker 1: same era, the same age, Like, what is that marriage?

154
00:06:45,508 --> 00:06:47,268
Speaker 4: Like? Because I pointed this out last week.

155
00:06:47,508 --> 00:06:50,148
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has never done this before, meaning he has

156
00:06:50,188 --> 00:06:52,388
Speaker 1: never gone to a new team and gone with an

157
00:06:52,388 --> 00:06:54,828
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator that he has no history with. When he

158
00:06:54,868 --> 00:06:57,228
Speaker 1: went to the Jets, it was this guy, Nate Hackett,

159
00:06:57,228 --> 00:06:59,468
Speaker 1: who had a lot of history with He was curated

160
00:06:59,508 --> 00:07:00,828
Speaker 1: specifically for Rogers.

161
00:07:01,268 --> 00:07:02,708
Speaker 4: This is just Arthur Smith was.

162
00:07:02,668 --> 00:07:05,188
Speaker 1: The guy the Steelers chose well before Rogers was part

163
00:07:05,188 --> 00:07:07,708
Speaker 1: of the team, and then Rogers becomes part of the team,

164
00:07:07,708 --> 00:07:09,628
Speaker 1: and they just have to make it work. It's not picked,

165
00:07:09,668 --> 00:07:12,868
Speaker 1: it's not selected, it's not filtered for Rogers nor Rogers

166
00:07:12,868 --> 00:07:15,148
Speaker 1: With Arthur Smith, I don't think they really knew each

167
00:07:15,188 --> 00:07:17,428
Speaker 1: other very well. So I don't know how it's gonna work,

168
00:07:17,468 --> 00:07:20,348
Speaker 1: because if it's not working. Rogers is different than a

169
00:07:20,348 --> 00:07:22,748
Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks in the sense that there's this whole

170
00:07:22,748 --> 00:07:26,108
Speaker 1: thing about him changing plays and line of scrimmage him audibly,

171
00:07:26,148 --> 00:07:28,348
Speaker 1: and that came up with his relationship with Robert Sala

172
00:07:28,388 --> 00:07:30,868
Speaker 1: and the Jets. He is not just your typical I'm

173
00:07:30,868 --> 00:07:32,468
Speaker 1: out of college and I'm twenty four and I'll do

174
00:07:32,508 --> 00:07:34,748
Speaker 1: whatever you say. In a lot of ways, he is

175
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:36,708
Speaker 1: the coach. So I don't know how that marriage is

176
00:07:36,708 --> 00:07:39,228
Speaker 1: gonna work. I don't know what happens if it's not working.

177
00:07:39,428 --> 00:07:42,308
Speaker 1: It's just that's a fascinating one. Tomlin and Rogers fine,

178
00:07:42,588 --> 00:07:46,188
Speaker 1: But Arthur Smith with the headset calling plays for a

179
00:07:46,188 --> 00:07:49,588
Speaker 1: guy in his twenty first season who knows everything about

180
00:07:49,628 --> 00:07:50,948
Speaker 1: the game, I don't know.

181
00:07:51,028 --> 00:07:53,388
Speaker 4: Sometimes the plays get called back to you. We'll see. Yeah.

182
00:07:53,428 --> 00:07:57,068
Speaker 7: No. I like that answer because historically they just have

183
00:07:57,228 --> 00:07:59,348
Speaker 7: not been doing well having a coordinator, I mean not

184
00:07:59,428 --> 00:08:01,788
Speaker 7: since Todd Haley. So, Kyle, I love that answer. I

185
00:08:01,788 --> 00:08:03,428
Speaker 7: think a lot of pressures on him to get it

186
00:08:03,508 --> 00:08:05,668
Speaker 7: right because so far Mike tom has not been doing

187
00:08:05,668 --> 00:08:07,828
Speaker 7: a great job finding coordinators for this offense.

188
00:08:07,908 --> 00:08:08,548
Speaker 3: All right, Well, so.

189
00:08:08,508 --> 00:08:10,788
Speaker 2: Your answer for the Steelers was a running back room

190
00:08:10,828 --> 00:08:13,628
Speaker 2: and quarterbacks love to have it with a star wide receiver.

191
00:08:13,708 --> 00:08:15,308
Speaker 2: Of course, the bill are dealing with an issue in

192
00:08:15,308 --> 00:08:17,068
Speaker 2: their running back room right now, which is the fact

193
00:08:17,108 --> 00:08:20,308
Speaker 2: that James Cook has been at training camp, but yesterday

194
00:08:20,308 --> 00:08:23,188
Speaker 2: he decided not to dress for practice. Cook is seeking

195
00:08:23,268 --> 00:08:27,308
Speaker 2: a contract extension and he was present during mandatory mini camp.

196
00:08:27,548 --> 00:08:29,708
Speaker 2: He then reported to a training camp and he had

197
00:08:29,748 --> 00:08:32,868
Speaker 2: participated thus far, but then he cut it short and

198
00:08:32,988 --> 00:08:36,068
Speaker 2: when he was asked about this, James Cook at practice.

199
00:08:36,108 --> 00:08:39,188
Speaker 2: He just kept saying, business, business, Why aren't you practicing

200
00:08:39,308 --> 00:08:40,188
Speaker 2: business now?

201
00:08:40,228 --> 00:08:42,428
Speaker 3: This morning? Brandon Bean, their GM has been on.

202
00:08:42,428 --> 00:08:45,028
Speaker 2: WGR five to fifty already, and he said the Bills

203
00:08:45,028 --> 00:08:47,908
Speaker 2: were not aware that James Cook was going to decide

204
00:08:47,908 --> 00:08:50,108
Speaker 2: to withhold himself from practice as of yesterday, and he's

205
00:08:50,148 --> 00:08:52,148
Speaker 2: not sure if he's going to participate today. So this

206
00:08:52,228 --> 00:08:55,308
Speaker 2: is an active situation that is unfolding for the Bills. Manti,

207
00:08:55,468 --> 00:08:57,828
Speaker 2: what do we make of this James Cook business?

208
00:08:57,908 --> 00:09:00,428
Speaker 6: Well, let's talk business, okay, So first and foremost, James

209
00:09:00,428 --> 00:09:01,788
Speaker 6: Cook is a very explosive player.

210
00:09:02,108 --> 00:09:05,028
Speaker 4: He's been a really good, reliable player for Theuffalo Bills.

211
00:09:05,028 --> 00:09:07,668
Speaker 6: However, when it comes to business, let's talk about business

212
00:09:07,668 --> 00:09:10,868
Speaker 6: from the Bills standpoint. James Cook last year only plaid

213
00:09:10,908 --> 00:09:15,268
Speaker 6: forty six percent of the snaps for them on third down.

214
00:09:15,588 --> 00:09:18,228
Speaker 6: James Cook was only targeted thirteen percent of the time.

215
00:09:18,268 --> 00:09:20,268
Speaker 6: You know who was targeted more than him, Ty Johnson,

216
00:09:20,308 --> 00:09:23,588
Speaker 6: He's seventy one percent. That doesn't look good for business

217
00:09:23,588 --> 00:09:27,948
Speaker 6: if you're James Cook. Now, last year, on Week six,

218
00:09:28,108 --> 00:09:30,788
Speaker 6: he missed the game against the Jets, and that running

219
00:09:30,828 --> 00:09:33,108
Speaker 6: back room ran for one hundred and thirty one yards,

220
00:09:33,148 --> 00:09:35,228
Speaker 6: which was the fourth most in.

221
00:09:35,268 --> 00:09:36,828
Speaker 4: The twenty twenty four season for them.

222
00:09:36,868 --> 00:09:39,908
Speaker 6: Their rookie Ray Davis led that running back room with

223
00:09:40,028 --> 00:09:43,108
Speaker 6: ninety seven rushing yards and fifty five reception yards. So

224
00:09:43,348 --> 00:09:45,948
Speaker 6: when it comes to business, the hardest thing if you

225
00:09:46,028 --> 00:09:49,868
Speaker 6: are a player is if you give a franchise the

226
00:09:49,908 --> 00:09:53,188
Speaker 6: thought that you could you can be replaced. And last

227
00:09:53,228 --> 00:09:55,908
Speaker 6: year when they had that whole running back running back

228
00:09:55,948 --> 00:09:59,468
Speaker 6: room play, there wasn't a real big drop off. Now

229
00:09:59,628 --> 00:10:02,428
Speaker 6: for me to say that, I'm not saying that James

230
00:10:02,508 --> 00:10:04,188
Speaker 6: Cook isn't a good player. What I am saying is

231
00:10:04,188 --> 00:10:06,828
Speaker 6: the the guys in that room can produce for them

232
00:10:06,868 --> 00:10:09,508
Speaker 6: and have produced for them. So it doesn't it doesn't

233
00:10:09,548 --> 00:10:13,508
Speaker 6: really fit for James Cook when it comes to business

234
00:10:14,108 --> 00:10:16,748
Speaker 6: that he has that type of leverage with the front

235
00:10:16,748 --> 00:10:17,948
Speaker 6: office for the Buffalo Bills.

236
00:10:18,308 --> 00:10:20,308
Speaker 7: That's what it comes down to. It comes down to leverage.

237
00:10:20,348 --> 00:10:22,708
Speaker 7: And you know, you're looking around the league of the

238
00:10:22,708 --> 00:10:25,148
Speaker 7: guys who have been paid top dollar and so far

239
00:10:25,228 --> 00:10:28,908
Speaker 7: the running back stigma has been moving in the right direction.

240
00:10:28,988 --> 00:10:32,428
Speaker 7: Obviously thankful to Saquon and dere Henry, but they're doing

241
00:10:32,468 --> 00:10:35,388
Speaker 7: like astronomical things in the running back room. So yeah,

242
00:10:35,668 --> 00:10:38,548
Speaker 7: it's very tough because guys don't want to pay runner backs.

243
00:10:38,828 --> 00:10:40,948
Speaker 7: You look at we just talked about the Steelers, how

244
00:10:40,988 --> 00:10:43,748
Speaker 7: they have a whole running back room where they can

245
00:10:43,828 --> 00:10:46,828
Speaker 7: just use multiple backs. So unless you're that constant everyday

246
00:10:46,908 --> 00:10:49,988
Speaker 7: cow bell and producing, and like you mentioned, is he

247
00:10:50,068 --> 00:10:52,028
Speaker 7: on the field, is he the one getting the football time?

248
00:10:52,108 --> 00:10:54,268
Speaker 7: Especially in that offense. The offense is Josh Allen's. He

249
00:10:54,268 --> 00:10:56,668
Speaker 7: pretty much does everything for that offense. So it's tough.

250
00:10:56,708 --> 00:10:58,708
Speaker 7: And I get it. I mean he does deserve, you know,

251
00:10:58,948 --> 00:11:01,428
Speaker 7: money for sure, but I would just be very very

252
00:11:01,508 --> 00:11:03,988
Speaker 7: careful because how much leverage do you really have. You

253
00:11:04,028 --> 00:11:06,588
Speaker 7: look at Terry McLaurin tons of leverage, You look at

254
00:11:06,788 --> 00:11:09,428
Speaker 7: Michael Palms Parsons, tons of leverage. Because of who they are,

255
00:11:09,468 --> 00:11:11,748
Speaker 7: what they have done in this case is very, very tough.

256
00:11:12,228 --> 00:11:13,948
Speaker 4: It's a heart versus head thing, you know.

257
00:11:13,948 --> 00:11:18,588
Speaker 1: If you're a fan, your heart says, oh, yeah, he's great, Jimbo,

258
00:11:18,988 --> 00:11:21,388
Speaker 1: and he scored a bunch of touchdowns last year, and

259
00:11:21,388 --> 00:11:23,788
Speaker 1: he had an incredible touchdown in the title game against

260
00:11:23,788 --> 00:11:26,428
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. He's amazing. Your head says, it's a little

261
00:11:26,428 --> 00:11:28,908
Speaker 1: more complicated than that. I understand where he's coming from,

262
00:11:28,948 --> 00:11:31,068
Speaker 1: James Flick. This is the one shot he will get

263
00:11:31,108 --> 00:11:33,108
Speaker 1: at this. This is the one time when he is

264
00:11:33,108 --> 00:11:35,108
Speaker 1: at this point in his career, this age, coming off

265
00:11:35,148 --> 00:11:37,708
Speaker 1: that season scoring that many touchdowns, where he feels like

266
00:11:37,748 --> 00:11:40,108
Speaker 1: it's time for ideal that he has to go in

267
00:11:40,188 --> 00:11:43,868
Speaker 1: on this. But there's also a test of can you

268
00:11:43,988 --> 00:11:47,908
Speaker 1: close your eyes right now and picture the Buffalo Bills

269
00:11:47,988 --> 00:11:53,068
Speaker 1: Josh Allen offense without James Cook And sadly for me,

270
00:11:53,108 --> 00:11:55,308
Speaker 1: I think the answer is yes. And are they still

271
00:11:55,308 --> 00:11:57,268
Speaker 1: winning games? And I think the answer is yes. He

272
00:11:57,388 --> 00:11:59,668
Speaker 1: is a luxury. He's a very talented player that has

273
00:11:59,668 --> 00:12:03,068
Speaker 1: again his homegrown But as we've said many times, he's

274
00:12:03,068 --> 00:12:05,028
Speaker 1: in the wrong era. This was too and five. He

275
00:12:05,068 --> 00:12:06,948
Speaker 1: would have had a huge deal already. It would have

276
00:12:06,948 --> 00:12:10,508
Speaker 1: been no big deal. But I think big baller being

277
00:12:10,628 --> 00:12:12,228
Speaker 1: is looking at some of the stuff you guys mentioned,

278
00:12:12,588 --> 00:12:14,708
Speaker 1: the percentage of the time he's on the field, the

279
00:12:14,828 --> 00:12:16,388
Speaker 1: time when he was off the field, How did we

280
00:12:16,468 --> 00:12:18,548
Speaker 1: run the ball and we have this player of mass

281
00:12:18,588 --> 00:12:22,108
Speaker 1: destruction at quarterback, right or wrong? I don't think it's

282
00:12:22,148 --> 00:12:25,348
Speaker 1: proudent for us to spend huge dollars on this running

283
00:12:25,388 --> 00:12:25,868
Speaker 1: back and.

284
00:12:25,828 --> 00:12:26,948
Speaker 4: So Hart versus Head.

285
00:12:26,988 --> 00:12:28,708
Speaker 1: I like James Cook as a player and a person,

286
00:12:28,908 --> 00:12:30,708
Speaker 1: but I definitely understand the other side of this.

287
00:12:30,828 --> 00:12:33,788
Speaker 3: All right, the Finyl down for three and out on GMF.

288
00:12:34,028 --> 00:12:35,708
Speaker 2: It's one of these things where sometimes you got to

289
00:12:35,708 --> 00:12:37,628
Speaker 2: know what you're good at and what you're not good at.

290
00:12:37,868 --> 00:12:40,348
Speaker 2: When I have to read something that says Summer Slam

291
00:12:40,468 --> 00:12:42,948
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five and it went down in MetLife Stadium,

292
00:12:43,108 --> 00:12:45,628
Speaker 2: I know inherently that I am not going to explain

293
00:12:45,708 --> 00:12:47,668
Speaker 2: the following video as well as it could be done.

294
00:12:47,708 --> 00:12:50,388
Speaker 2: So instead, I'm gonna ask Kyle to walk us through

295
00:12:50,468 --> 00:12:53,508
Speaker 2: a huge moment from Saturday show, because guys, I just

296
00:12:53,548 --> 00:12:55,308
Speaker 2: wouldn't do Ausice Kyle take it away.

297
00:12:55,388 --> 00:12:56,388
Speaker 4: All right, let's get into it.

298
00:12:56,428 --> 00:12:59,148
Speaker 1: Summer Slam over the weekend multiple night event now.

299
00:12:59,308 --> 00:12:59,988
Speaker 4: And here we go.

300
00:13:00,308 --> 00:13:03,948
Speaker 1: So WWE has their deal, Seth Rollins walks out with

301
00:13:03,948 --> 00:13:05,788
Speaker 1: Paul Hands and CM punk is in the ring and

302
00:13:05,788 --> 00:13:07,788
Speaker 1: Seth Rollins has the money in the bank's briefcase.

303
00:13:07,828 --> 00:13:10,708
Speaker 4: But wait, he's injured or is he?

304
00:13:10,708 --> 00:13:15,668
Speaker 1: He drops the crutches, drops the limp, drops the knee brace,

305
00:13:15,988 --> 00:13:17,708
Speaker 1: drops the jacket, and.

306
00:13:17,628 --> 00:13:19,468
Speaker 4: Then drops all pretense and.

307
00:13:19,588 --> 00:13:23,828
Speaker 1: Struts into the ring in which he uses his right

308
00:13:24,308 --> 00:13:26,228
Speaker 1: to use the money in the bank briefcase and he

309
00:13:26,268 --> 00:13:28,948
Speaker 1: goes against his old rival Cmpunk and ends up winning

310
00:13:29,388 --> 00:13:30,188
Speaker 1: the backstory.

311
00:13:30,228 --> 00:13:32,508
Speaker 4: Guys, they call it the ruse of the century.

312
00:13:33,188 --> 00:13:36,668
Speaker 1: Seth has had everyone convinced, depending on what you believe,

313
00:13:36,748 --> 00:13:39,188
Speaker 1: up to and including his boss, that he has a

314
00:13:39,308 --> 00:13:41,788
Speaker 1: serious knee injury and he could not wrestle.

315
00:13:41,828 --> 00:13:43,588
Speaker 4: This is in the ring, this is out of the ring.

316
00:13:43,948 --> 00:13:47,388
Speaker 1: It's an amazing, amazing piece of showmanship, and it ends

317
00:13:47,468 --> 00:13:49,828
Speaker 1: up with Seth Rollins, our dear friend, going and getting

318
00:13:49,828 --> 00:13:52,388
Speaker 1: back another belt. We all have our reactions to it.

319
00:13:52,388 --> 00:13:54,228
Speaker 1: We thought we've seen everything from pro wrestling. I don't

320
00:13:54,228 --> 00:13:55,028
Speaker 1: think we've ever seen this.

321
00:13:55,388 --> 00:13:57,668
Speaker 2: So wait, he took this thing all the way you're

322
00:13:57,668 --> 00:14:00,188
Speaker 2: saying outside the building on a social media.

323
00:14:00,028 --> 00:14:01,148
Speaker 3: Like we were concerned?

324
00:14:01,188 --> 00:14:04,548
Speaker 2: Were you concerned about Seth Rolins lower body injury that

325
00:14:04,588 --> 00:14:05,388
Speaker 2: he just walks in there?

326
00:14:05,628 --> 00:14:08,108
Speaker 3: Oh? Are you okay with this? Ethically?

327
00:14:08,188 --> 00:14:10,388
Speaker 4: In the wrestling world, it's an incredible thing.

328
00:14:10,548 --> 00:14:12,668
Speaker 1: Not only am I okay within the wrestling world. I

329
00:14:12,708 --> 00:14:15,268
Speaker 1: have some inside information here from Good Morning Football, and

330
00:14:15,268 --> 00:14:18,348
Speaker 1: everybody listen, I'm going to tell a story. Our GMFB

331
00:14:18,548 --> 00:14:22,228
Speaker 1: producer here his name's Chris McClain. He knows Seth because

332
00:14:22,228 --> 00:14:24,988
Speaker 1: SES's been on the show several times. A couple of

333
00:14:24,988 --> 00:14:29,468
Speaker 1: weeks ago, Chris ran into Seth Rollins at the gym

334
00:14:29,508 --> 00:14:32,908
Speaker 1: where he goes to exercise. He saw him there. Seth

335
00:14:33,228 --> 00:14:36,828
Speaker 1: has the knee brace on. He is fully talking about

336
00:14:36,868 --> 00:14:40,188
Speaker 1: and owning the injury. He's dragging his leg around, He's limping.

337
00:14:40,268 --> 00:14:43,308
Speaker 1: He's limping, and he tells Chris, Yeah, I'm just injured,

338
00:14:43,348 --> 00:14:44,468
Speaker 1: you know SummerSlam.

339
00:14:44,708 --> 00:14:46,708
Speaker 4: Chris the intrepid producer he is.

340
00:14:46,748 --> 00:14:48,588
Speaker 1: He says, well, if you're going to be off the

341
00:14:48,788 --> 00:14:50,628
Speaker 1: roster for a while for wrestling, why don't you come

342
00:14:50,628 --> 00:14:52,468
Speaker 1: in and host with us in Good Morning Football. He

343
00:14:52,508 --> 00:14:53,988
Speaker 1: was trying to get him in here because he wouldn't

344
00:14:54,028 --> 00:14:57,668
Speaker 1: be wrestling. He completely sold it. He's out and about

345
00:14:57,668 --> 00:15:01,388
Speaker 1: in the public gym in character, selling the ruse not

346
00:15:01,428 --> 00:15:04,908
Speaker 1: only to the public but to people he knows, like Chris,

347
00:15:04,948 --> 00:15:06,708
Speaker 1: only for him to walk out in front of the

348
00:15:06,708 --> 00:15:10,228
Speaker 1: Summersland audience and finally drop the cutches and go in

349
00:15:10,268 --> 00:15:14,188
Speaker 1: and win. It is a full, full backstory of incredible

350
00:15:14,388 --> 00:15:17,908
Speaker 1: ingenuity and commitment to the bit, up to including lying

351
00:15:18,028 --> 00:15:21,588
Speaker 1: to our own staffers. Here on Good Morning Football just

352
00:15:21,628 --> 00:15:23,588
Speaker 1: to sell it for this moment, and I could not

353
00:15:23,708 --> 00:15:24,428
Speaker 1: respect it more.

354
00:15:24,428 --> 00:15:26,748
Speaker 4: Seth KB, did they say what Jim? First of all,

355
00:15:26,828 --> 00:15:27,588
Speaker 4: Chris shout.

356
00:15:27,348 --> 00:15:29,508
Speaker 3: Out, yeah, wait to get in your party about Jim.

357
00:15:30,468 --> 00:15:33,188
Speaker 6: I mean, I can only imagine that he goes to

358
00:15:33,228 --> 00:15:34,588
Speaker 6: an expensive gym.

359
00:15:34,388 --> 00:15:37,228
Speaker 4: Out over here in La County. Did he say what,

360
00:15:37,388 --> 00:15:38,068
Speaker 4: Jim KB?

361
00:15:38,548 --> 00:15:40,628
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he works out at a place called Curves.

362
00:15:40,828 --> 00:15:43,148
Speaker 1: It's a high end spot for all the wrestlers and

363
00:15:43,188 --> 00:15:43,828
Speaker 1: the producers.

364
00:15:44,068 --> 00:15:45,868
Speaker 4: I don't know much about it, but that would be

365
00:15:45,908 --> 00:15:50,228
Speaker 4: my guest. Maybe Planet Fitness, but I don't know. Shout

366
00:15:50,268 --> 00:15:51,308
Speaker 4: out to McClay well.

367
00:15:51,788 --> 00:15:53,428
Speaker 6: I had to do some research on this one, guys.

368
00:15:53,428 --> 00:15:55,748
Speaker 6: I didn't know what was happening, but I watched the

369
00:15:55,748 --> 00:15:57,668
Speaker 6: whole clip. I found out what the money in the

370
00:15:57,708 --> 00:16:02,868
Speaker 6: bank thing was. What a brilliant, brilliant demonstration of tactics

371
00:16:02,908 --> 00:16:05,268
Speaker 6: by set So shout out to Seth front of the show.

372
00:16:05,668 --> 00:16:07,708
Speaker 6: I thought that it was perfectly executed.

373
00:16:07,828 --> 00:16:10,468
Speaker 2: All I know is that just me and Seth rollins,

374
00:16:10,508 --> 00:16:12,348
Speaker 2: and I'm looking right at you when I say this

375
00:16:12,428 --> 00:16:14,428
Speaker 2: is that we are we have the we have the

376
00:16:14,468 --> 00:16:17,868
Speaker 2: privilege now and the right to roll your butt in

377
00:16:17,908 --> 00:16:20,388
Speaker 2: here to host GMF. You with us, even when you

378
00:16:20,428 --> 00:16:22,588
Speaker 2: are injured or not, because no one's ever gonna be

379
00:16:22,628 --> 00:16:24,668
Speaker 2: able to tell whether or not you are actually injured.

380
00:16:24,708 --> 00:16:27,708
Speaker 2: It's the ultimate injured. It's the ultimate boy who cried Wolf.

381
00:16:27,828 --> 00:16:30,148
Speaker 2: So at this point, a crutch or not, rollins, you're

382
00:16:30,148 --> 00:16:32,908
Speaker 2: getting in here. You're gonna come on GMFB. And that's

383
00:16:32,948 --> 00:16:34,468
Speaker 2: just the demand that we are gonna make. If you

384
00:16:34,508 --> 00:16:37,268
Speaker 2: are gonna lie to the producer's faces the way that

385
00:16:37,308 --> 00:16:39,708
Speaker 2: you did, My friends, this is fun.

386
00:16:39,748 --> 00:16:41,828
Speaker 7: This is this is all reminds me of ten years

387
00:16:41,828 --> 00:16:44,148
Speaker 7: ago Kyle the Heights of the Century. Similar to that.

388
00:16:45,188 --> 00:16:48,308
Speaker 7: Sure this if I wanted to put it in football terms,

389
00:16:48,308 --> 00:16:51,548
Speaker 7: this is cold Saints in the Super Bowl, where you know,

390
00:16:51,628 --> 00:16:53,748
Speaker 7: the Saints line up and all of a sudden, bombs

391
00:16:53,828 --> 00:16:56,188
Speaker 7: I cook the ambush Like that's Zach what I see

392
00:16:56,188 --> 00:16:58,548
Speaker 7: it like, And it's it's funny. I appreciate that. That's

393
00:16:58,748 --> 00:17:00,548
Speaker 7: That's the one thing I do appreciate about wrestling, man,

394
00:17:00,628 --> 00:17:02,748
Speaker 7: is like like take it full all the way, all

395
00:17:02,748 --> 00:17:04,628
Speaker 7: the way through with the characters. So I love it. Man,

396
00:17:04,668 --> 00:17:06,468
Speaker 7: this is this is what it's all about.

397
00:17:06,668 --> 00:17:08,988
Speaker 1: See, I think it's like we're going to get let's

398
00:17:09,028 --> 00:17:12,788
Speaker 1: just say Bill's Eagles in the Super Bowl, and for

399
00:17:12,828 --> 00:17:15,428
Speaker 1: the entire two weeks leading up to the Super Bowl,

400
00:17:15,588 --> 00:17:18,508
Speaker 1: Josh Allen is injured and he's in embrace and he's

401
00:17:18,508 --> 00:17:21,068
Speaker 1: not practicing, and the Bills starters.

402
00:17:20,628 --> 00:17:23,308
Speaker 4: Come out to warm up, and then just after the national.

403
00:17:22,908 --> 00:17:25,388
Speaker 1: Anthem, Josh Allen comes out and drops the crutches and

404
00:17:25,428 --> 00:17:28,348
Speaker 1: the brace and runs out and starts punching the Eagles

405
00:17:28,348 --> 00:17:31,508
Speaker 1: Like that's that's how ridiculous this is. And Triple h

406
00:17:31,628 --> 00:17:33,348
Speaker 1: was even like the head of ww He's like, I'm

407
00:17:33,348 --> 00:17:34,348
Speaker 1: not sure if I like the.

408
00:17:34,308 --> 00:17:37,028
Speaker 4: Bogus medical reports. Like he's playing right into it too.

409
00:17:37,428 --> 00:17:39,628
Speaker 1: Really, just when you think we've been watching wrestling now

410
00:17:39,668 --> 00:17:42,428
Speaker 1: forty to fifty years on the mainstream, it's still coming

411
00:17:42,508 --> 00:17:43,268
Speaker 1: up with new stuff.

412
00:17:43,308 --> 00:17:45,468
Speaker 2: I was just about to say that with Triple checknowledge

413
00:17:45,468 --> 00:17:47,188
Speaker 2: is just like then you're gonna have media members, We're

414
00:17:47,188 --> 00:17:49,268
Speaker 2: going to be annoyed about the conspiracy that the injury

415
00:17:49,308 --> 00:17:53,548
Speaker 2: reports were falsify. It's like, it's take things so seriously,

416
00:17:53,908 --> 00:17:56,708
Speaker 2: well done, and we will see Steth rollin soon enough

417
00:17:56,708 --> 00:17:59,148
Speaker 2: here on GMFB front of our show Congratulations.

418
00:17:59,468 --> 00:18:00,708
Speaker 3: A little later on on our.

419
00:18:00,588 --> 00:18:03,948
Speaker 2: Show, We're going to deep dive into training camp analysis.

420
00:18:03,948 --> 00:18:06,108
Speaker 3: That needs a second, a third, and a fourth.

421
00:18:06,108 --> 00:18:09,908
Speaker 2: Look, if you are putting things Zeatman's out their thoughts,

422
00:18:10,028 --> 00:18:14,428
Speaker 2: complaints about a quarterback, specifically, Kyle will unearth it and

423
00:18:14,468 --> 00:18:16,148
Speaker 2: he will tell you why you're wrong and why you

424
00:18:16,188 --> 00:18:19,148
Speaker 2: should not have those thoughts at this time of year.

425
00:18:19,268 --> 00:18:19,948
Speaker 3: Kyle, what else?

426
00:18:21,188 --> 00:18:23,228
Speaker 1: I got a text from someone in media yesterday saying

427
00:18:23,268 --> 00:18:25,988
Speaker 1: is it panic time for Caleb Williams And I want

428
00:18:25,988 --> 00:18:28,468
Speaker 1: to punch them through my phone. Lamar Jackson and Derek

429
00:18:28,508 --> 00:18:30,028
Speaker 1: Henry give opponents nightmares.

430
00:18:30,108 --> 00:18:30,508
Speaker 4: We know that.

431
00:18:31,468 --> 00:18:37,428
Speaker 1: Is this the season Baltimore's dreams finally come true and

432
00:18:37,468 --> 00:18:40,468
Speaker 1: they get to that first Lamar Jackson's Super Bowl.

433
00:18:40,468 --> 00:18:42,068
Speaker 4: We're talking Ravens next.

434
00:18:42,108 --> 00:18:43,988
Speaker 1: We'll try to make it a different conversation than it

435
00:18:44,028 --> 00:18:45,108
Speaker 1: is every time with the Ravens.

436
00:18:45,148 --> 00:19:00,628
Speaker 8: I promise, good morn football.

437
00:19:00,628 --> 00:19:03,668
Speaker 2: Oh and one of the kings in the AFC would

438
00:19:03,708 --> 00:19:07,388
Speaker 2: be that of King Derrick Henry. Just an absolutely prolific

439
00:19:07,548 --> 00:19:09,988
Speaker 2: year with the Ravens last season and now he is

440
00:19:10,028 --> 00:19:11,948
Speaker 2: reconnecting once again with Lamar Jackson.

441
00:19:11,948 --> 00:19:12,748
Speaker 3: But no matter what.

442
00:19:12,748 --> 00:19:15,308
Speaker 2: Jersey Dereck Henry is wearing, it is one of the

443
00:19:15,508 --> 00:19:18,908
Speaker 2: universal truths in football that it is impossible to tackle

444
00:19:18,948 --> 00:19:19,348
Speaker 2: that man.

445
00:19:19,468 --> 00:19:20,148
Speaker 3: So when you.

446
00:19:20,068 --> 00:19:24,188
Speaker 2: Consider watching training camp footage of Lamar connecting with Derrick

447
00:19:24,228 --> 00:19:27,508
Speaker 2: Henry taking him down, trying to from the back, usually

448
00:19:27,548 --> 00:19:30,308
Speaker 2: it takes multiple players. So his teammates now, who are

449
00:19:30,348 --> 00:19:34,148
Speaker 2: attempting to do this and practice, we're asked about tackling

450
00:19:34,148 --> 00:19:36,068
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry and what that experience is, Like, here's a

451
00:19:36,148 --> 00:19:36,988
Speaker 2: flowers in Kyle.

452
00:19:36,828 --> 00:19:41,628
Speaker 8: Hamilton, hit him, just hit him for you.

453
00:19:42,548 --> 00:19:45,828
Speaker 9: Most people now, nah, But I think that's the mentality

454
00:19:45,868 --> 00:19:46,388
Speaker 9: you gotta take.

455
00:19:46,388 --> 00:19:48,868
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously it's not an easy task, but you know,

456
00:19:48,908 --> 00:19:49,348
Speaker 4: you gotta.

457
00:19:49,468 --> 00:19:51,628
Speaker 9: You're in the league too for that for a reason,

458
00:19:51,708 --> 00:19:53,908
Speaker 9: So I think you gotta have confidence when you're going there.

459
00:19:53,948 --> 00:19:56,348
Speaker 9: But you know, like I said, it's no that's a

460
00:19:56,388 --> 00:19:59,428
Speaker 9: tall task and he's made a living running people over

461
00:19:59,468 --> 00:20:01,468
Speaker 9: and stiff arm with people. So I mean, you kind

462
00:20:01,508 --> 00:20:04,348
Speaker 9: of just gotta just gotta find it somewhere and hit him.

463
00:20:05,028 --> 00:20:05,588
Speaker 3: So simple.

464
00:20:05,668 --> 00:20:07,868
Speaker 2: I mean, just say, you guys are on his team though,

465
00:20:07,868 --> 00:20:10,908
Speaker 2: that's the problem. Kyle Hamilton. Keyle Hamilton's awesome, and he's

466
00:20:10,988 --> 00:20:14,388
Speaker 2: part of an amazing Ravens defense that is talented once again,

467
00:20:14,588 --> 00:20:16,788
Speaker 2: and they are trying to stack up and compete with

468
00:20:16,828 --> 00:20:19,468
Speaker 2: the big three offenses in the AFC this year to

469
00:20:19,508 --> 00:20:22,508
Speaker 2: reach the pinnacle, the Bengals, the Chiefs, and the Bills.

470
00:20:22,708 --> 00:20:23,948
Speaker 3: How do we think this is going to go?

471
00:20:24,268 --> 00:20:28,108
Speaker 2: Man Tai for this group of Ravens defenders who are

472
00:20:28,228 --> 00:20:30,508
Speaker 2: good every year, but it's again, it's all task in

473
00:20:30,548 --> 00:20:30,948
Speaker 2: the AFC.

474
00:20:31,068 --> 00:20:32,588
Speaker 6: I think it's going to go well, you know, and

475
00:20:32,628 --> 00:20:35,948
Speaker 6: I think defensively, if you look at the landscape of

476
00:20:36,068 --> 00:20:38,268
Speaker 6: last year for them, the first half of the season,

477
00:20:38,308 --> 00:20:41,508
Speaker 6: they really struggled under Zach Orr, Zach Orr's first year

478
00:20:41,548 --> 00:20:45,108
Speaker 6: defensive coordinator, so you're expecting some growth pain there. But

479
00:20:45,188 --> 00:20:48,028
Speaker 6: then the second half of the season comes comes along

480
00:20:48,348 --> 00:20:51,188
Speaker 6: and they start to dominate. Matter of fact, they start

481
00:20:51,228 --> 00:20:53,948
Speaker 6: to become one of the best, if not the best

482
00:20:53,988 --> 00:20:56,708
Speaker 6: defense in the NFL, ranking first and a whole bunch

483
00:20:56,708 --> 00:20:58,468
Speaker 6: of categories. I don't know if we have that graphic,

484
00:20:58,708 --> 00:21:01,268
Speaker 6: but they're just first in a whole bunch of categories.

485
00:21:01,388 --> 00:21:04,188
Speaker 6: And you add the guys like Jae or Alexander and

486
00:21:04,508 --> 00:21:07,188
Speaker 6: Kai Starks to it. Like guys, when I say dominant's

487
00:21:07,188 --> 00:21:09,428
Speaker 6: like it's first, first, first, first, first, right.

488
00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:11,428
Speaker 4: Down the line, like they figured it out.

489
00:21:11,308 --> 00:21:13,148
Speaker 6: Now, Kyle Hamilton had a lot to do with that,

490
00:21:13,228 --> 00:21:14,068
Speaker 6: moving him around.

491
00:21:14,348 --> 00:21:14,988
Speaker 4: But when you.

492
00:21:15,268 --> 00:21:18,628
Speaker 6: Apply Malachi Starks to that equation Jai or Alexander too,

493
00:21:18,708 --> 00:21:22,028
Speaker 6: Marlin Humphrey, Nate Wiggins, and Kyle Hamilton, you can only

494
00:21:22,068 --> 00:21:25,708
Speaker 6: imagine that that defense starts to look like the traditional

495
00:21:26,068 --> 00:21:29,868
Speaker 6: Baltimore Baltimore Ravens defense of Oh, now, how do they

496
00:21:29,868 --> 00:21:31,188
Speaker 6: stack up against those guys?

497
00:21:31,228 --> 00:21:32,668
Speaker 4: I think they stacked up pretty well.

498
00:21:33,028 --> 00:21:35,748
Speaker 6: I think it's gonna be a really good, really exciting

499
00:21:36,148 --> 00:21:38,868
Speaker 6: season for them defensively and offensively.

500
00:21:38,988 --> 00:21:41,308
Speaker 4: So Will I'm.

501
00:21:41,028 --> 00:21:43,988
Speaker 6: Really excited to see this Ravens defense take on that

502
00:21:43,988 --> 00:21:44,868
Speaker 6: that form that they.

503
00:21:44,748 --> 00:21:46,068
Speaker 4: Had late in the season last year.

504
00:21:46,308 --> 00:21:48,908
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's gonna be unique. It's gonna be musty TV

505
00:21:49,068 --> 00:21:51,428
Speaker 7: versus all these teams. You know, we'll start with the

506
00:21:51,588 --> 00:21:53,588
Speaker 7: with the Bengals. You know you this is gonna be

507
00:21:53,628 --> 00:21:56,068
Speaker 7: the purest seven on seven pitching cats test. Right, you

508
00:21:56,108 --> 00:21:59,428
Speaker 7: have Jamar Chase Higgins, MIKEA Saiki, they just signed Noah Fense,

509
00:21:59,548 --> 00:22:01,788
Speaker 7: another tight end, and this is gonna be the purest test, Like,

510
00:22:01,868 --> 00:22:04,188
Speaker 7: can your DB's offside matchup with us? And if you

511
00:22:04,188 --> 00:22:06,228
Speaker 7: can and not get to Joe Burrow, it's gonna be

512
00:22:06,268 --> 00:22:08,188
Speaker 7: a problem. And then you look at the Buffalo Bills

513
00:22:08,188 --> 00:22:10,468
Speaker 7: like you, Josh Allen, you really have to try to

514
00:22:10,508 --> 00:22:13,188
Speaker 7: take away movement with him right, set the edges and

515
00:22:13,548 --> 00:22:15,188
Speaker 7: really try to keep him in the pocket and force

516
00:22:15,228 --> 00:22:17,068
Speaker 7: him to throw the ball downfield, which he also does

517
00:22:17,188 --> 00:22:19,428
Speaker 7: very well, but you want to limit his quarterback runs

518
00:22:19,428 --> 00:22:20,948
Speaker 7: because that's where he can hurt you. And then you

519
00:22:20,988 --> 00:22:23,028
Speaker 7: go to the Kansas City Chiefs, like You're gonna get

520
00:22:23,068 --> 00:22:26,628
Speaker 7: a lot of more complex situations like rpo zone schemes,

521
00:22:26,868 --> 00:22:29,508
Speaker 7: and so now you're really battling, you know, or versus

522
00:22:29,588 --> 00:22:31,828
Speaker 7: Andy Reid a situation. Of course, you got you know,

523
00:22:31,868 --> 00:22:34,108
Speaker 7: Mahomes as the quarterback. But they're gonna have a lot

524
00:22:34,148 --> 00:22:37,148
Speaker 7: of unique situations, a lot of unique matchups when it

525
00:22:37,188 --> 00:22:38,948
Speaker 7: comes to these games. But it's gonna be fun. And

526
00:22:39,188 --> 00:22:42,948
Speaker 7: if anyone is built for defensively reasons why you mentioned

527
00:22:42,948 --> 00:22:44,668
Speaker 7: Mantai is going to be the Baltimore Ravens.

528
00:22:46,068 --> 00:22:47,548
Speaker 1: It is going to be fun and it is going

529
00:22:47,628 --> 00:22:49,468
Speaker 1: to be exciting, and it always is with the Ravens.

530
00:22:49,988 --> 00:22:52,708
Speaker 1: I find the Ravens very difficult to talk about because

531
00:22:53,068 --> 00:22:55,308
Speaker 1: it all just comes to the same answer every time,

532
00:22:55,468 --> 00:22:56,388
Speaker 1: especially this year.

533
00:22:56,468 --> 00:22:57,708
Speaker 4: You know the Ravens didn't.

534
00:22:57,508 --> 00:23:01,028
Speaker 1: Make dramatic moves in the off season because they didn't

535
00:23:01,068 --> 00:23:03,868
Speaker 1: need to, and they shouldn't make dramatic moves. They have

536
00:23:03,948 --> 00:23:05,748
Speaker 1: the coach, the players, they have the roster, they have

537
00:23:05,748 --> 00:23:08,948
Speaker 1: the quarterback. It's just can they make enough plays in

538
00:23:08,988 --> 00:23:10,988
Speaker 1: that game in the playoffs. That's all it is. It's

539
00:23:11,028 --> 00:23:12,948
Speaker 1: all it was last year. It's all it's gonna be

540
00:23:13,028 --> 00:23:15,948
Speaker 1: next year. I see Bills and Bengals and Chiefs, and

541
00:23:15,988 --> 00:23:17,828
Speaker 1: it's we know these guys are gonna fight. At the

542
00:23:17,908 --> 00:23:19,388
Speaker 1: end of the movie, it's like you want to just

543
00:23:19,428 --> 00:23:21,228
Speaker 1: fast forward to the end. You understand.

544
00:23:21,268 --> 00:23:23,828
Speaker 4: It's like Frank Dukes is gonna fight Shong Lee and

545
00:23:23,868 --> 00:23:24,828
Speaker 4: the championship.

546
00:23:24,388 --> 00:23:26,348
Speaker 1: Brown of the Turn of the Kumite. Let's just get there.

547
00:23:26,428 --> 00:23:28,628
Speaker 1: We know that the Ravens are gonna be very good

548
00:23:28,628 --> 00:23:30,468
Speaker 1: this year. Their defense is gonna be good. Their offense

549
00:23:30,508 --> 00:23:32,508
Speaker 1: is gonna be good, just like last year, just like

550
00:23:32,548 --> 00:23:35,508
Speaker 1: next year. Now some teams they're more more interesting and

551
00:23:35,548 --> 00:23:38,068
Speaker 1: more mysterious. I don't know if the Steelers are gonna

552
00:23:38,068 --> 00:23:39,908
Speaker 1: be good this year. I'm not really sure. I don't

553
00:23:39,948 --> 00:23:41,508
Speaker 1: know if the Bears are gonna be good this year.

554
00:23:41,748 --> 00:23:43,828
Speaker 1: I know The Ravens are gonna be good. You know

555
00:23:43,868 --> 00:23:46,668
Speaker 1: they're gonna be good. Probably great. It's just one of

556
00:23:46,708 --> 00:23:49,668
Speaker 1: these teams where I don't really need to know anything else.

557
00:23:49,988 --> 00:23:51,468
Speaker 1: I know it's what we do, and we get into

558
00:23:51,508 --> 00:23:53,988
Speaker 1: the minutia of their defense and their schemes, and it's wonderful.

559
00:23:53,988 --> 00:23:54,668
Speaker 4: And that's football.

560
00:23:54,748 --> 00:23:56,548
Speaker 1: The net sum of all of it is, will you

561
00:23:56,628 --> 00:24:00,188
Speaker 1: make enough plays to beat the Bills, Chiefs, Bengals. Usually

562
00:24:00,548 --> 00:24:03,188
Speaker 1: they don't, so this year will it be different?

563
00:24:03,268 --> 00:24:03,748
Speaker 4: I don't know.

564
00:24:03,908 --> 00:24:06,388
Speaker 1: But it's like they are one of four see you

565
00:24:06,468 --> 00:24:07,588
Speaker 1: in January teams.

566
00:24:07,628 --> 00:24:08,468
Speaker 4: I can't wait for it.

567
00:24:08,508 --> 00:24:10,788
Speaker 1: But in the meantime it's difficult to talk about just

568
00:24:10,828 --> 00:24:12,588
Speaker 1: because that's the only answer anyone's interested.

569
00:24:12,988 --> 00:24:15,348
Speaker 2: I didn't know this about the Ravens, but into terms

570
00:24:15,348 --> 00:24:17,348
Speaker 2: of seeing you in January, Like, how about can I

571
00:24:17,388 --> 00:24:20,948
Speaker 2: interest you in a week seventeen Ravens at Packers game?

572
00:24:21,068 --> 00:24:23,548
Speaker 2: Because that's going down at Lambeau in late December.

573
00:24:23,548 --> 00:24:25,028
Speaker 3: That's incredible in.

574
00:24:24,948 --> 00:24:28,108
Speaker 2: The in the scheduling, God's gift in the universe. A

575
00:24:28,148 --> 00:24:29,788
Speaker 2: week seventeen Ravens Packers.

576
00:24:29,828 --> 00:24:31,948
Speaker 7: Who who's going to play in that game? Though I

577
00:24:31,988 --> 00:24:35,748
Speaker 7: don't care, I want to see it.

578
00:24:34,388 --> 00:24:38,948
Speaker 3: It might matter, It might matter exactly.

579
00:24:39,788 --> 00:24:42,108
Speaker 2: I love this part of GMFP because we've all been

580
00:24:42,188 --> 00:24:44,788
Speaker 2: talking in our cushy little climate control studio about things

581
00:24:44,828 --> 00:24:47,068
Speaker 2: that are going around the NFL. Well, Tom Pelisera and

582
00:24:47,068 --> 00:24:50,228
Speaker 2: Cam Wolf are actually out there there at Falcons training camp.

583
00:24:50,268 --> 00:24:50,948
Speaker 3: We have them now.

584
00:24:51,148 --> 00:24:54,108
Speaker 2: Great to see you guys this morning, and we got

585
00:24:54,108 --> 00:24:55,828
Speaker 2: to cover a lot of topics with you too. Cam Wolf,

586
00:24:55,868 --> 00:24:58,348
Speaker 2: I'm gonna start with you. Michael Pennick Junior is entering

587
00:24:58,428 --> 00:25:01,388
Speaker 2: year two in the NFL. What's going on with his coaches,

588
00:25:01,428 --> 00:25:04,028
Speaker 2: the teammates, the people that are around him every day

589
00:25:04,468 --> 00:25:06,948
Speaker 2: and they're taking in how this guy is progressing.

590
00:25:06,988 --> 00:25:07,908
Speaker 3: What's going on with him?

591
00:25:08,308 --> 00:25:09,428
Speaker 4: Well, good morning, Jamie.

592
00:25:09,468 --> 00:25:12,268
Speaker 10: We actually just talked to Rahee Morris's head coach about

593
00:25:12,268 --> 00:25:14,508
Speaker 10: thirty minutes ago, and he told us that this guy

594
00:25:14,708 --> 00:25:17,788
Speaker 10: is a calm, more prepared version of the guy that

595
00:25:17,828 --> 00:25:20,828
Speaker 10: we saw last year. Remember he didn't get the starting

596
00:25:20,868 --> 00:25:23,428
Speaker 10: reps until December when he got the job. Now he

597
00:25:23,468 --> 00:25:26,108
Speaker 10: gets a full offseason as the guy, and they're doing

598
00:25:26,188 --> 00:25:28,468
Speaker 10: everything to get him ready for the moment. They've had

599
00:25:28,508 --> 00:25:31,028
Speaker 10: Michael Vick and Matt Ryan connect with him to be

600
00:25:31,028 --> 00:25:33,148
Speaker 10: able to teach him a little bit about being a

601
00:25:33,668 --> 00:25:35,908
Speaker 10: veteran starting quarterback here in Atlanta.

602
00:25:35,948 --> 00:25:37,468
Speaker 4: And also they talked about.

603
00:25:37,268 --> 00:25:40,948
Speaker 10: Michael Pennocks's relationship with his teammates building that confidence that

604
00:25:41,068 --> 00:25:43,788
Speaker 10: are so that this offense is ready to flow Week one.

605
00:25:44,108 --> 00:25:45,788
Speaker 4: How confidence is Michael Pennicks.

606
00:25:45,828 --> 00:25:47,948
Speaker 10: He's saying that they have goals of being the best

607
00:25:48,028 --> 00:25:51,068
Speaker 10: offense in football. He said, we have the playmakers for it,

608
00:25:51,188 --> 00:25:54,148
Speaker 10: he said, Drake London, he won't be underrated or overlooked

609
00:25:54,188 --> 00:25:56,508
Speaker 10: after this year, he said, Kyle Pitts, you see us

610
00:25:56,548 --> 00:25:58,908
Speaker 10: throw catching passes in training camp, You're going to see

611
00:25:58,908 --> 00:26:01,268
Speaker 10: a lot of that throughout the season. Look, this is

612
00:26:01,268 --> 00:26:03,868
Speaker 10: a Falcons team that knows they have to win. They

613
00:26:03,868 --> 00:26:06,148
Speaker 10: haven't won a playoff game or made the playoffs since

614
00:26:06,188 --> 00:26:09,308
Speaker 10: twenty seventeen. But they know that Michael Pinnix is their

615
00:26:09,348 --> 00:26:11,828
Speaker 10: guy and they can't wait to unleash him to the

616
00:26:11,828 --> 00:26:13,868
Speaker 10: rest of the league and potentially try to win this

617
00:26:13,988 --> 00:26:16,068
Speaker 10: NFC South Jamie also.

618
00:26:15,908 --> 00:26:18,908
Speaker 1: Guys, what happened yesterday Tom James Cook. We were talking

619
00:26:18,908 --> 00:26:19,748
Speaker 1: about him earlier.

620
00:26:20,028 --> 00:26:23,388
Speaker 4: It's a tough one, great player, great stats, not on

621
00:26:23,428 --> 00:26:25,228
Speaker 4: the field. A lot take us through all of that.

622
00:26:25,308 --> 00:26:30,148
Speaker 11: With the Bills They're been ongoing conversations Kyle negotiations dating

623
00:26:30,228 --> 00:26:32,668
Speaker 11: back months. The Bills tried to get a lot of

624
00:26:32,668 --> 00:26:35,388
Speaker 11: their core players locked up back in the spring. They

625
00:26:35,388 --> 00:26:37,628
Speaker 11: did it with the likes of Christian Benford on a

626
00:26:37,628 --> 00:26:40,828
Speaker 11: new deal, Greg Russou as well. James Cook was the

627
00:26:40,988 --> 00:26:43,828
Speaker 11: priority at that time. The sides were not able to

628
00:26:43,868 --> 00:26:47,428
Speaker 11: get on the same page. Those negotiations have been continuing,

629
00:26:47,588 --> 00:26:51,748
Speaker 11: so James Cook yesterday did not participate in practice. He

630
00:26:51,788 --> 00:26:54,748
Speaker 11: was asked repeatedly by the media why he didn practice,

631
00:26:54,828 --> 00:26:57,548
Speaker 11: Will he practice tomorrow? When will he practice again? Cook

632
00:26:57,588 --> 00:27:01,548
Speaker 11: would only respond business now. My understanding has been the

633
00:27:01,628 --> 00:27:04,388
Speaker 11: sides have not been that far apart on a James

634
00:27:04,428 --> 00:27:09,068
Speaker 11: Cook contract extension for all the way back to the spring. However,

635
00:27:09,468 --> 00:27:12,468
Speaker 11: there is no close. There is only done, and there

636
00:27:12,548 --> 00:27:15,588
Speaker 11: is not a done deal at this time with James

637
00:27:15,628 --> 00:27:19,188
Speaker 11: Cook GM. Brandon Bean was on the radio locally in

638
00:27:19,268 --> 00:27:22,668
Speaker 11: Buffalo earlier today said it's disappointing for him against the

639
00:27:22,708 --> 00:27:24,548
Speaker 11: first time in his nine years as GM that a

640
00:27:24,548 --> 00:27:27,908
Speaker 11: player is not practiced because of a contract situation. Buffalo

641
00:27:28,028 --> 00:27:31,708
Speaker 11: has not had the proverbial hold ins, which has reminded

642
00:27:31,708 --> 00:27:33,468
Speaker 11: of everybody is not a real thing. Under the collective

643
00:27:33,468 --> 00:27:36,868
Speaker 11: bargaining agreement, you cannot hold in. If you don't practice

644
00:27:36,948 --> 00:27:40,508
Speaker 11: and you're there, the team can find you for not practicing.

645
00:27:40,588 --> 00:27:41,348
Speaker 4: We shall see.

646
00:27:41,388 --> 00:27:44,108
Speaker 11: This is not anybody hitting the eject button. This is

647
00:27:44,108 --> 00:27:48,548
Speaker 11: not Micah Parsons in Dallas. As the conversations have been continuing, obviously,

648
00:27:48,908 --> 00:27:51,988
Speaker 11: James Cook, in consultation with his people, made the decision

649
00:27:52,028 --> 00:27:55,228
Speaker 11: to not be on the practice field yesterday. We shall

650
00:27:55,308 --> 00:27:58,268
Speaker 11: see if he's out there today or at any time

651
00:27:58,428 --> 00:28:02,548
Speaker 11: in the coming days as those conversations potentially.

652
00:28:02,228 --> 00:28:05,428
Speaker 6: Come to a head in Buffalo Guests, Yeah, Tom, we

653
00:28:05,468 --> 00:28:07,788
Speaker 6: shall see that with James Cook, with somebody we know.

654
00:28:07,828 --> 00:28:10,148
Speaker 6: We will see As Bajeon Robinson, I know a lot

655
00:28:10,188 --> 00:28:13,188
Speaker 6: of people are excited about fantasy football projections with them.

656
00:28:13,268 --> 00:28:16,828
Speaker 6: Saquon Barkley talked about his cutting ability. How has Bajeon

657
00:28:17,348 --> 00:28:19,308
Speaker 6: looked in trend camp so far?

658
00:28:19,508 --> 00:28:22,668
Speaker 11: Nailing that pronunciation that he clarified during Back Together Weekend.

659
00:28:22,708 --> 00:28:26,068
Speaker 11: Bijon Robinson coming off of a season where.

660
00:28:25,948 --> 00:28:27,308
Speaker 4: It was a huge breakthrough for him.

661
00:28:27,348 --> 00:28:29,868
Speaker 11: In a year two, almost nineteen hundred yards from scrimmage,

662
00:28:29,948 --> 00:28:33,188
Speaker 11: he had fifteen touchdowns. If he's able to replicate that

663
00:28:33,228 --> 00:28:35,148
Speaker 11: in twenty twenty five. For you get your fantasy team

664
00:28:35,188 --> 00:28:36,948
Speaker 11: here for a second man tie, this is gonna be

665
00:28:36,948 --> 00:28:40,788
Speaker 11: a very lucrative coming off season for Bijeon Robinson. You

666
00:28:40,828 --> 00:28:43,668
Speaker 11: look across the league at the running back market, it's

667
00:28:43,708 --> 00:28:47,508
Speaker 11: been fickle four years. There's three guys Christian McCaffrey, Saquon

668
00:28:47,548 --> 00:28:49,788
Speaker 11: Barkley and Derek Henry who were making fifteen million dollars

669
00:28:49,828 --> 00:28:52,868
Speaker 11: plus per year. If Bijon, who is still only twenty

670
00:28:52,868 --> 00:28:54,908
Speaker 11: three years old, puts up another season like he did

671
00:28:55,188 --> 00:28:57,468
Speaker 11: in twenty twenty four, he quite possibly is going to

672
00:28:57,468 --> 00:29:00,028
Speaker 11: be in that conversation as well. It's a big part

673
00:29:00,068 --> 00:29:01,908
Speaker 11: of the offense. Can you talked about it with Michael

674
00:29:01,908 --> 00:29:03,988
Speaker 11: Pennix Junior as they're trying to bring him.

675
00:29:04,028 --> 00:29:04,788
Speaker 7: A law here.

676
00:29:04,828 --> 00:29:06,708
Speaker 11: If you're able to have a strong running game, that's

677
00:29:06,748 --> 00:29:09,108
Speaker 11: a pretty good way to take the pressure off your

678
00:29:09,108 --> 00:29:12,268
Speaker 11: young quarterback. I wouldn't anticipate that we see much, if any,

679
00:29:12,308 --> 00:29:15,188
Speaker 11: of Bishon Robinson in the preseason. If you're going to

680
00:29:15,268 --> 00:29:18,308
Speaker 11: be a load carrying back like he can be, save

681
00:29:18,348 --> 00:29:20,428
Speaker 11: it for the regular season. We're going to look out

682
00:29:20,628 --> 00:29:22,868
Speaker 11: here at him today. And also, I want to be clear,

683
00:29:22,868 --> 00:29:25,828
Speaker 11: guys that file footage we were showing to the quarterback asually.

684
00:29:25,668 --> 00:29:26,868
Speaker 8: That was from another day.

685
00:29:27,188 --> 00:29:30,268
Speaker 11: Right now, we've got a little sideways rain going out here.

686
00:29:29,748 --> 00:29:33,908
Speaker 11: They are outside though, on the practice field, on the grass,

687
00:29:33,908 --> 00:29:35,228
Speaker 11: and we'll look forward to this over the next game.

688
00:29:35,348 --> 00:29:38,748
Speaker 2: Everyone battling elements tom players hate when they're a market

689
00:29:38,788 --> 00:29:41,108
Speaker 2: for their contract is called fickle. So I'm glad that

690
00:29:41,108 --> 00:29:43,628
Speaker 2: we've moved beyond that with running backs. And I don't

691
00:29:43,628 --> 00:29:45,828
Speaker 2: want to overlook the flex that you two had cam

692
00:29:45,868 --> 00:29:48,148
Speaker 2: when you started this report saying that, oh, you're just

693
00:29:48,228 --> 00:29:50,548
Speaker 2: catching up with the head coach thirty minutes ago. What

694
00:29:50,668 --> 00:29:52,988
Speaker 2: else was that conversation, Like, well done you guys, You're

695
00:29:53,068 --> 00:29:54,068
Speaker 2: up and at it early today.

696
00:29:54,348 --> 00:29:58,268
Speaker 10: Yeah, Jamie, great news from that press conference. Michael Pennocks

697
00:29:58,348 --> 00:30:01,308
Speaker 10: Kirk Cousins will not play in the preseason game on Friday.

698
00:30:01,468 --> 00:30:03,308
Speaker 10: Raheem Morris told us you'll see a lot of Easton

699
00:30:03,428 --> 00:30:05,828
Speaker 10: stick out there. Gonna wait till later in the preseason

700
00:30:05,828 --> 00:30:08,588
Speaker 10: to see those quarterbacks play. But the most important thing

701
00:30:08,668 --> 00:30:11,108
Speaker 10: that he told us was his routine in the morning.

702
00:30:11,268 --> 00:30:15,068
Speaker 10: He said he gets up Rahee Morris four am every morning,

703
00:30:15,308 --> 00:30:18,148
Speaker 10: gets a cold plunge action three minutes in the cold

704
00:30:18,188 --> 00:30:21,588
Speaker 10: plunge to it tub works out even before he gets

705
00:30:21,588 --> 00:30:24,988
Speaker 10: to the facility. I have done thirteen seconds of cold

706
00:30:24,988 --> 00:30:27,868
Speaker 10: plunge before, so I can't imagine three minutes daily. But

707
00:30:28,108 --> 00:30:30,068
Speaker 10: he said he's already ready to go. But it's great

708
00:30:30,068 --> 00:30:32,708
Speaker 10: for his bones, great for his recovery. So not only

709
00:30:32,788 --> 00:30:35,268
Speaker 10: the players get recovery action, you got the Falcons head

710
00:30:35,308 --> 00:30:38,588
Speaker 10: coach Raheem Morris getting cold plunge four am workouts for

711
00:30:38,628 --> 00:30:40,028
Speaker 10: training idea.

712
00:30:40,588 --> 00:30:40,988
Speaker 4: That's all me.

713
00:30:41,668 --> 00:30:43,948
Speaker 2: Still not early enough for to join us on GMFF.

714
00:30:44,108 --> 00:30:45,148
Speaker 3: That's all I gotta say about that.

715
00:30:45,188 --> 00:30:46,908
Speaker 2: It's gotta be three am and it's got to be

716
00:30:47,068 --> 00:30:50,748
Speaker 2: six minutes in the cold plunge. Tom Pellisero, Cam wol

717
00:30:50,788 --> 00:30:52,308
Speaker 2: If you guys are the best, Thank you so much.

718
00:30:52,388 --> 00:30:55,268
Speaker 2: Get your umbrellas and get out there and check out

719
00:30:55,308 --> 00:30:55,828
Speaker 2: the quarterbacks.

720
00:30:55,868 --> 00:31:13,668
Speaker 12: We'll see you guys a little bit, all right, welcome

721
00:31:13,708 --> 00:31:14,108
Speaker 12: back now.

722
00:31:14,228 --> 00:31:16,308
Speaker 1: Some people don't like it, but I don't mind too

723
00:31:16,428 --> 00:31:20,188
Speaker 1: much the training camp passing stats getting tweeted and shared

724
00:31:20,268 --> 00:31:21,948
Speaker 1: on the internet because I think there's a hunger for it.

725
00:31:22,028 --> 00:31:23,068
Speaker 4: I think fans want it.

726
00:31:23,268 --> 00:31:28,548
Speaker 1: There's also a bloodlust that goes on for players failing

727
00:31:28,668 --> 00:31:32,588
Speaker 1: in training camp for players looking bad for throwing ugly passes,

728
00:31:32,628 --> 00:31:36,468
Speaker 1: for throwing pick sixes, player looks sharp, boring. Let me

729
00:31:36,508 --> 00:31:40,228
Speaker 1: see the terrible, unsightly interception footage with which I can

730
00:31:40,668 --> 00:31:43,428
Speaker 1: make fun of that player and tweet jokes. Over the weekend,

731
00:31:43,428 --> 00:31:46,548
Speaker 1: the Bears had their Family Night scrimmage at Soldier Field.

732
00:31:46,628 --> 00:31:50,588
Speaker 1: On Soldier Field, Caleb Williams through a really ugly interception.

733
00:31:50,948 --> 00:31:53,148
Speaker 1: Here's the fan captured video with the phone from the

734
00:31:53,148 --> 00:31:56,468
Speaker 1: stands that makes the internet and everyone lost their minds.

735
00:31:56,468 --> 00:31:58,828
Speaker 1: Here's just one of the tweets that came up about

736
00:31:58,868 --> 00:32:01,868
Speaker 1: Caleb throwing an interception the first week in August. Kayla

737
00:32:01,908 --> 00:32:05,228
Speaker 1: Williams already in mid season fourm fire. Far be it

738
00:32:05,268 --> 00:32:07,948
Speaker 1: for me to criticize the people at Hater Reports. It's

739
00:32:07,988 --> 00:32:10,468
Speaker 1: not exactly the Associated Press, but I do think that

740
00:32:10,508 --> 00:32:14,868
Speaker 1: accounts like this, God Bless him, drive conversations, create narratives,

741
00:32:15,868 --> 00:32:19,668
Speaker 1: establish reputations for players, and I would just respond to

742
00:32:19,708 --> 00:32:22,028
Speaker 1: this type of joke, which was everywhere. Caleb Williams already

743
00:32:22,028 --> 00:32:25,948
Speaker 1: midseason form. Are you talking about like last year in

744
00:32:25,988 --> 00:32:29,108
Speaker 1: the mid season when he went nine straight games without

745
00:32:29,148 --> 00:32:33,228
Speaker 1: throwing an interception? Nine straight games, every single one of

746
00:32:33,268 --> 00:32:36,228
Speaker 1: them a loss for the Bears because his coordinator got fired.

747
00:32:36,268 --> 00:32:39,988
Speaker 1: His coach got fired mid season form Bears men should hope.

748
00:32:40,028 --> 00:32:43,348
Speaker 1: So he didn't throw a single interception as a rookie

749
00:32:43,428 --> 00:32:46,428
Speaker 1: through the mid season with no offensive line, trying to

750
00:32:46,508 --> 00:32:48,788
Speaker 1: gel as a rookie with everyone around him getting fired.

751
00:32:49,188 --> 00:32:52,268
Speaker 1: His only mid season play was incredible under horrific dress.

752
00:32:52,588 --> 00:32:53,548
Speaker 4: I got a text from.

753
00:32:53,388 --> 00:32:56,428
Speaker 1: Somebody yesterday in the media, someone that you know, that

754
00:32:56,668 --> 00:33:00,068
Speaker 1: just said Caleb Williams panic time, and I wanted to

755
00:33:00,068 --> 00:33:02,988
Speaker 1: punch this person through the phone. You would think right now,

756
00:33:03,028 --> 00:33:06,988
Speaker 1: based on the reaction to Caleb Williams interception on August third,

757
00:33:07,428 --> 00:33:09,948
Speaker 1: that it is actually October fourteenth, the Bears are one

758
00:33:09,948 --> 00:33:13,748
Speaker 1: and four and he's suffering badly. There is something specific

759
00:33:13,828 --> 00:33:17,628
Speaker 1: about the Bears quarterbacks where it's comfortable for the Internet

760
00:33:17,788 --> 00:33:20,148
Speaker 1: for them to be inept, for them to be bad.

761
00:33:20,508 --> 00:33:23,268
Speaker 1: They want them as a character to kick around. They

762
00:33:23,348 --> 00:33:25,588
Speaker 1: want to mean them for being bad. They've done it

763
00:33:25,628 --> 00:33:27,668
Speaker 1: since the Internet was invented, and they don't.

764
00:33:27,428 --> 00:33:30,908
Speaker 4: Want to stop. That's fine, but don't do it.

765
00:33:30,988 --> 00:33:34,068
Speaker 1: Based on an August third interception, when I just told

766
00:33:34,108 --> 00:33:36,228
Speaker 1: you you played over two months of football without throwing

767
00:33:36,268 --> 00:33:39,228
Speaker 1: one and Caleb Williams far from the first person that

768
00:33:39,348 --> 00:33:39,908
Speaker 1: had this happen to.

769
00:33:40,028 --> 00:33:42,148
Speaker 4: Let's look back a little bit. Let's look back to.

770
00:33:42,148 --> 00:33:44,868
Speaker 1: The year twenty nineteen when Lamar Jackson is having his

771
00:33:44,948 --> 00:33:48,828
Speaker 1: training camp and maybe things aren't looking that great, and

772
00:33:48,868 --> 00:33:50,788
Speaker 1: the tweet comes out this is just one of many

773
00:33:51,428 --> 00:33:55,428
Speaker 1: Lamar having issues throwing the football. Several of his passes

774
00:33:55,628 --> 00:33:58,308
Speaker 1: woggled through the air, and everyone loses their minds. Always

775
00:33:58,308 --> 00:34:00,468
Speaker 1: should have sticked with Flacco. Lamar he can't throw, he

776
00:34:00,508 --> 00:34:04,268
Speaker 1: can't pass. Then Lamar takes the field for twenty nineteen

777
00:34:05,028 --> 00:34:07,268
Speaker 1: and the very first game of that season, Lamarthur for

778
00:34:07,388 --> 00:34:11,428
Speaker 1: five touchdowns with no picks, five and zero. He went

779
00:34:11,468 --> 00:34:15,068
Speaker 1: on to win the league MVP. Look at this, This

780
00:34:15,148 --> 00:34:17,148
Speaker 1: was the fish in a barrel game. Week one, he

781
00:34:17,228 --> 00:34:19,948
Speaker 1: beats the Bengals. He was the best player in the NFL.

782
00:34:20,268 --> 00:34:21,988
Speaker 1: But you go back a month and you think it's

783
00:34:22,068 --> 00:34:25,108
Speaker 1: hilarious that we were losing our mind about wobbly passes

784
00:34:25,148 --> 00:34:26,028
Speaker 1: in training camp.

785
00:34:26,228 --> 00:34:27,748
Speaker 4: You want another example.

786
00:34:27,908 --> 00:34:32,228
Speaker 1: How about Rock Party looked at his mister irrelevance. Twenty

787
00:34:32,268 --> 00:34:37,308
Speaker 1: twenty three training camp. Ten interceptions in training camp for

788
00:34:37,388 --> 00:34:41,268
Speaker 1: Brock Purty so far two interceptions in today's practice. I

789
00:34:41,308 --> 00:34:43,348
Speaker 1: don't know if he's up to being the leading man

790
00:34:43,468 --> 00:34:47,348
Speaker 1: for Kyle Shanahan. Guess what first five weeks of the

791
00:34:47,388 --> 00:34:53,708
Speaker 1: season party nine touchdowns, zero interceptions led the NFL through

792
00:34:53,708 --> 00:34:56,628
Speaker 1: the first couple of months in ratio, went all the

793
00:34:56,668 --> 00:34:59,788
Speaker 1: way to the Super Bowl. Yet there's a tweet from

794
00:34:59,788 --> 00:35:02,428
Speaker 1: august An I don't know. Two more picks and practice.

795
00:35:03,068 --> 00:35:04,708
Speaker 4: Guys. It's fine to to.

796
00:35:04,708 --> 00:35:08,068
Speaker 1: Statistics, draw the conclusions if you want, but these dramatic

797
00:35:08,188 --> 00:35:14,548
Speaker 1: overreactions are so obnoxious, so overdone, so pessimistic, so critical

798
00:35:14,588 --> 00:35:18,628
Speaker 1: of players. If anything, overreact to how good someone's touchdown looks.

799
00:35:18,628 --> 00:35:21,188
Speaker 4: Try that maybe they won't be that good during the season.

800
00:35:21,388 --> 00:35:23,668
Speaker 1: But it's fun to celebrate a player trying to find

801
00:35:23,668 --> 00:35:26,468
Speaker 1: his footing, like Caleb Williams in the NFL. I really

802
00:35:26,508 --> 00:35:28,108
Speaker 1: do think it's a Caleb thing. I think it's a

803
00:35:28,188 --> 00:35:30,828
Speaker 1: very specific thing. I don't know what the internet would

804
00:35:30,868 --> 00:35:33,628
Speaker 1: do when and if Kleb Beliams becomes a fantastic player

805
00:35:33,628 --> 00:35:34,428
Speaker 1: in his second.

806
00:35:34,228 --> 00:35:37,148
Speaker 4: Year, what are the jokes going to be about. You'll

807
00:35:37,188 --> 00:35:38,108
Speaker 4: always find something.

808
00:35:38,228 --> 00:35:41,108
Speaker 1: But in meantime, Caleb threw a terrible intersection over this

809
00:35:41,148 --> 00:35:43,668
Speaker 1: week Over this weekend, who knows. Maybe he threw it

810
00:35:43,708 --> 00:35:45,148
Speaker 1: to try to put on a show for the fans,

811
00:35:45,188 --> 00:35:47,228
Speaker 1: maybe he threw it because it's practice and screw it,

812
00:35:47,508 --> 00:35:50,188
Speaker 1: or maybe it's August third and he's having a really

813
00:35:50,188 --> 00:35:51,228
Speaker 1: difficult time right now.

814
00:35:51,428 --> 00:35:52,628
Speaker 4: Justin Ben Johnson's offense.

815
00:35:52,748 --> 00:35:54,908
Speaker 1: He's got a month, he's got talent, he's got a

816
00:35:54,908 --> 00:35:55,748
Speaker 1: supporting cast.

817
00:35:56,028 --> 00:35:57,428
Speaker 4: I know everybody's got jokes.

818
00:35:57,468 --> 00:36:00,068
Speaker 1: It's just way too much, especially when that joke is

819
00:36:00,108 --> 00:36:02,268
Speaker 1: midseason form and the only time we've seen him the

820
00:36:02,268 --> 00:36:03,388
Speaker 1: mid season, he's been.

821
00:36:03,308 --> 00:36:06,468
Speaker 4: An excellent form. I'm finding a joke place. Thank you, guys.

822
00:36:06,948 --> 00:36:09,868
Speaker 4: I love that, KB. That's God's work right there.

823
00:36:10,068 --> 00:36:13,068
Speaker 6: Reminded me of when Jamar Chase was in his rookie

824
00:36:13,108 --> 00:36:15,548
Speaker 6: year and then training Camra. They're like, oh, he're dropping passes,

825
00:36:15,588 --> 00:36:16,948
Speaker 6: he doesn't know how to catch the ball, and then

826
00:36:17,268 --> 00:36:20,308
Speaker 6: fast forward ap offensive Rookie of the Year like.

827
00:36:20,468 --> 00:36:21,708
Speaker 4: That, that's just what happens.

828
00:36:21,708 --> 00:36:24,388
Speaker 6: That's I'm so glad that KB you identified that because

829
00:36:24,428 --> 00:36:26,948
Speaker 6: as a player, one of the things I'm passionate about

830
00:36:26,948 --> 00:36:28,828
Speaker 6: on this show is giving players a voice and giving

831
00:36:28,908 --> 00:36:31,228
Speaker 6: him a narrative and giving some perspective for the fans

832
00:36:31,268 --> 00:36:33,668
Speaker 6: at home who we love, but just giving them perspective

833
00:36:33,708 --> 00:36:35,948
Speaker 6: as to how these guys think and what they may

834
00:36:35,988 --> 00:36:36,548
Speaker 6: be going through.

835
00:36:36,588 --> 00:36:38,428
Speaker 4: So KB, bravo, brother, bravo.

836
00:36:38,708 --> 00:36:41,308
Speaker 7: I'm just in his smiling man because I got Aaron

837
00:36:41,348 --> 00:36:44,308
Speaker 7: Rodgers through a pick six. Yeah you know, hey, love

838
00:36:44,348 --> 00:36:44,788
Speaker 7: it man.

839
00:36:44,708 --> 00:36:45,468
Speaker 4: Through a pick six.

840
00:36:45,548 --> 00:36:48,268
Speaker 7: Great things on the horizon for the Pittsburgh Steels.

841
00:36:47,988 --> 00:36:48,308
Speaker 4: Let's go.

842
00:36:48,588 --> 00:36:50,228
Speaker 3: It's the contrarian approach to it.

843
00:36:50,228 --> 00:36:52,468
Speaker 2: It's like, see what you read, what you have to

844
00:36:52,508 --> 00:36:55,428
Speaker 2: hear about these guys, and then take the opposite stands Kyle,

845
00:36:55,668 --> 00:36:59,268
Speaker 2: when you see tweets like this from media members, let's say,

846
00:36:59,348 --> 00:37:01,508
Speaker 2: do you ever directly reach out to the person and

847
00:37:01,548 --> 00:37:03,348
Speaker 2: you're like, come on, man, like you don't have to

848
00:37:03,348 --> 00:37:04,828
Speaker 2: put that out of that guy? Do you take this

849
00:37:04,948 --> 00:37:06,988
Speaker 2: upon yourself? Put on the hero, keep if you will

850
00:37:07,028 --> 00:37:07,988
Speaker 2: for the player, and.

851
00:37:07,948 --> 00:37:10,708
Speaker 3: You're like, on, behalf of this, dude, stop it with this.

Speaker 1: do Twitter beef.

855
00:37:15,828 --> 00:37:17,708

856
00:37:17,708 --> 00:37:18,948
Speaker 4: get into any of that stuff.

857
00:37:19,068 --> 00:37:21,748
Speaker 1: Two, I don't reply to these accounts on Twitter because

00:38:41,268 --> 00:38:42,228

882
00:38:42,628 --> 00:38:46,428
Speaker 2: It's fantastic editing Browns and pastors from Miles Garrett says

883
00:38:46,508 --> 00:38:48,748
Speaker 2: during training camp, just keep your opinions that you can

884
00:38:48,788 --> 00:38:50,388
Speaker 2: share them with the class when we after we hear

885
00:38:50,428 --> 00:38:53,028
Speaker 2: from Miles Garrett. He's he's young, he's healthy, and apparently

886
00:38:53,028 --> 00:38:55,428
Speaker 2: he's very open minded about trying out new positions on

887
00:38:55,428 --> 00:38:56,188
Speaker 2: the football field.

888
00:38:56,348 --> 00:38:59,228
Speaker 3: He had this exchange with one of his teammates, the

889
00:38:59,348 --> 00:39:01,708
Speaker 3: kicker Dustin Hopkins, about changing jobs for a day.

890
00:39:02,588 --> 00:39:05,268
Speaker 4: I want to swist some jobs for today. You know,

891
00:39:05,388 --> 00:39:07,228
Speaker 4: maybe one day I come out in your uniform.

892
00:39:07,108 --> 00:39:09,588
Speaker 7: And you start, hey, I'm down.

893
00:39:09,708 --> 00:39:10,708
Speaker 4: I'm just some kicking drills.

894
00:39:11,028 --> 00:39:11,828
Speaker 3: All right, there it is.

895
00:39:12,308 --> 00:39:15,348
Speaker 2: Can you imagine already hard enough to tackle the guy

896
00:39:15,388 --> 00:39:17,708
Speaker 2: now he's gonna kick Manti. Do you have another position

897
00:39:17,748 --> 00:39:19,188
Speaker 2: that you would have wanted to try for a day when.

898
00:39:19,068 --> 00:39:22,388
Speaker 6: You were playing, I would say punter. I would say punter.

899
00:39:22,468 --> 00:39:24,108
Speaker 6: I think shout out to punter's respect to you, But

900
00:39:24,148 --> 00:39:26,268
Speaker 6: you guys got the easiest job, Like you're never in

901
00:39:26,348 --> 00:39:28,868
Speaker 6: a game winning situation, and if you happen to kick

902
00:39:28,948 --> 00:39:30,468
Speaker 6: the ball through the end.

903
00:39:30,468 --> 00:39:32,908
Speaker 4: Zone, like it's like, oh, it's a touchback. So I

904
00:39:33,508 --> 00:39:36,388
Speaker 4: would have to say punter, like kicker, kicker. I don't

905
00:39:36,388 --> 00:39:38,548
Speaker 4: want to be a kicker because the whole team could

906
00:39:38,588 --> 00:39:40,428
Speaker 4: have a horrible game. You miss a game winning field goal,

907
00:39:40,548 --> 00:39:42,748
Speaker 4: it's your fault. I don't want that. Give me the punter.

908
00:39:42,788 --> 00:39:44,028
Speaker 4: It just cuts up on to this that thing. I

909
00:39:44,068 --> 00:39:44,388
Speaker 4: don't care.

910
00:39:44,668 --> 00:39:47,148
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I was fortunate to play multiple positions,

911
00:39:47,188 --> 00:39:49,548
Speaker 7: but I would. I would probably be a backup quarterback

912
00:39:49,628 --> 00:39:52,988
Speaker 7: to a franchise quarterback because you don't do anything.

913
00:39:53,268 --> 00:39:53,428
Speaker 4: You do.

914
00:39:53,588 --> 00:39:55,188
Speaker 7: You make, you make, make a lot of money, do

915
00:39:55,268 --> 00:39:57,588
Speaker 7: a great job, but you're never going to see the field.

916
00:39:57,868 --> 00:40:00,428
Speaker 7: You don't do you practice. You're pretty much a quarterback coach.

917
00:40:00,428 --> 00:40:02,628
Speaker 7: You're an extension of the quarterback coach, but you don't

918
00:40:02,628 --> 00:40:04,788
Speaker 7: do anything. I would love to be a backup right

919
00:40:04,828 --> 00:40:08,308
Speaker 7: behind a franchise quarterback Kyle.

920
00:40:08,588 --> 00:40:10,788
Speaker 4: I like to be Scott Hanson. That's easy, man.

921
00:40:11,148 --> 00:40:14,028
Speaker 1: All you gotta do is just tweet out five more sundays.

922
00:40:14,068 --> 00:40:16,908
Speaker 4: Football fans loses their minds.

923
00:40:17,348 --> 00:40:19,668
Speaker 1: He comes out on that first Sunday like like Zerk

924
00:40:19,748 --> 00:40:22,548
Speaker 1: season three hundred and people just go nuts. I feel

925
00:40:22,588 --> 00:40:24,908
Speaker 1: like there's football fans who are looking forward to Scott

926
00:40:25,028 --> 00:40:27,668
Speaker 1: Hanson making his debut this season more than Patrick Mahomes.

927
00:40:27,788 --> 00:40:30,628
Speaker 1: It's an unbelievable thing of hero worship that he commands,

928
00:40:30,868 --> 00:40:32,748
Speaker 1: I can only just watch it with envy. It's an

929
00:40:32,748 --> 00:40:35,628
Speaker 1: amazing power Scott has. And by the way, football fans,

930
00:40:35,668 --> 00:40:36,668
Speaker 1: we're down to only.

931
00:40:36,588 --> 00:40:37,468
Speaker 4: Four and a half weeks.

932
00:40:40,028 --> 00:40:42,788
Speaker 13: Man a similar sort of sentiment here as well. I

933
00:40:42,948 --> 00:40:45,908
Speaker 13: am bill trade positions with anyone currently on the beach

934
00:40:46,108 --> 00:40:48,108
Speaker 13: in some sort of tropical place.

935
00:40:48,308 --> 00:40:48,668
