Third three promenade. 44 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, my goodness, talked about having the weather cooperate 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: for Super Bowl Week. We're gonna have a one hundred 46 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: thousand people moved to California by the time this thing 47 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 1: ends on Sunday evening. It's been a great week in 48 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: terms of weather and stuff. So I'm looking forward to 49 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: it three to six pm. Petros and I will be 50 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: out there doing our radio show, so very much. Looking 51 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: forward to it. Dude, it's gonna be like eighty five 52 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: degrees on Super Bowl Sunday. It's like the hottest saying record. 53 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: I think I would not surprise me. They're gonna have 54 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: a heat and you know, look, we know it well. 55 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: We play our own games there. There's not a lot 56 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: of breeze. There is not a lot of breeze that 57 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: comes through that place. So if it's eighty five outside, 58 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: it's probably gonna be close to triple digits on the field. 59 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: We'll talk super Bowl at the end of the pod. 60 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: I want to go over just a few things. Today, 61 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 1: we'll go through the mock drafts and make the case 62 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: for a few prospects that are being mocked to the 63 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: charges really early. But I want to start with just 64 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: the head coaching cycle. Finally, it's it's come to a close. 65 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: You know, Mike McDaniel to me, you know, we talked 66 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: about all these young quarterbacks in the AFC, specifically Josh 67 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: Allen and Herbert and Burrow and Homes. If Mike McDaniel 68 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: can coach up Tah. We know the defense that they 69 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: have in Miami, and Mike McDaniel has been with Kyle 70 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: Shanahan at every stop that Kyle's been on. So when 71 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: you see the running game and that, I think there's 72 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: a lot of things that really fit the skill set 73 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: of Tuah and I'm I'm very intrigued to see what 74 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: that team's gonna look like under Mike McDaniel, who's has 75 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: these really funny and quirky press conferences versus a guy 76 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: like you know, Brian Flores, who is a little bit 77 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: more known since a very different style of head coach 78 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: going down to South Beach. Look, by all accounts, anyone 79 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: that's been around him, they say he's a genius that 80 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: he is this You know that that he is as 81 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: important to Kyle Shanahan as any of his assistants have 82 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: ever been. And you see the success of Sean McVay 83 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: and Michael Floor and Hot Matt Laflor and how well 84 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: they've done so, and that he was the one guy 85 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: he wouldn't let go, you know. But the one thing 86 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: I'll say is, you know, if he was and he 87 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: was the run game coordinator, and you know, Shanahan would 88 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: talk about just the stuff he would bring in and 89 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: how brilliant it was. That's what his specialty is. And 90 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: I don't think he's limited to that. He's going to 91 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: be able to expand into the passing game. But you 92 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: better get an old line because that old line has 93 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: been brutal the last couple of years. You know, you 94 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: look at San Francisco and what's been their success. Yes, 95 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: it's the running game, but it's also Trent Williams, Mike McGlinchey. 96 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: Like they value offensive line. Remember when the Chargers took 97 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: Derwin James, they took Mike McGlinchey. You know, So that's 98 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: it's important to remember that that, you know, you've got 99 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: to have an old line for that run game and 100 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: for those concepts to work. And no doubt it's important 101 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: for him to fix Tuah, but it's going to be equally, 102 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,720 Speaker 1: if not more, important for him to fix that old line. 103 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: But yes, by all accounts people that have been around him. 104 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,239 Speaker 1: I work with Andrew Hawkins here, he's been screaming about 105 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 1: McDaniel for two years that this is this is the 106 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: next Kyle Shanahan, this is the next guy that you're 107 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: going to hear about. So he's finally gonna get his opportunity. 108 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: And look, he certainly has a lot of weapons to 109 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: work with on offense, that's for sure, but they better 110 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: I think they've probably going to find a legit number 111 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: one running back and they're gonna have to sort out 112 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: that offensive line or hope those guys developed that they 113 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: drafted in the first round these last couple of years 114 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: and money. What about Doug Peterson and Trevor Lawrence another 115 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: young guy in the AFC, and you talk about just 116 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: the contrast of styles between Urban Meyer and and Doug Peterson. 117 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: Peterson's won a Super Bowl, he knows how to develop 118 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and this seems like a good match for Trevor. 119 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: And no doubt, you know, I think, you know, I 120 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: think people for it. You know, how good a play 121 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: call or Doug Peterson is, you know, and how great 122 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: that season was. You know, whether it was Nick Foles 123 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: or Cark, Carson Wentz is going to win the MVP. 124 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: He was. I mean, he was going to win the 125 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: MVP that year before he broke his leg against the Rams. 126 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: So you know, you think about what Peterson did there. 127 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: He obviously comes from the Andy Reid tree. You know, 128 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: people forget that that that's where he was hired from. 129 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: That he was a quarterback under Andy Reid when he 130 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: was in Green Bay, that he was a play caller 131 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: under Andy Reid in Kansas City and in Philadelphia. Now, 132 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: I think it's a smart hire. You know, I totally 133 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: would have loved to have seen Byron left Which get 134 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: a shot. I think he's going to get a shot. 135 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: But it sounds like he was not willing to work 136 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: with Frank Bulky, and you gotta have that synergy between 137 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: GM and head coach or things can get sideways in 138 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: a hurry. And it sounds like Peterson figured out a 139 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: way to say, fine, you want to keep paying this guy, 140 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: pay him, but you're bringing in somebody else that I'm 141 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: gonna deal with, so I don't have to deal with him. 142 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,679 Speaker 1: That's the one way this thing can get off the rails. 143 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: As if Shotgun for whatever reason decides he's and I 144 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: don't know why, it's super loyal to try and bul 145 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: Key and you know that's where it can get weird. 146 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: But by all accounts, in terms of coach and being 147 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: able to unlock what we all believe is just incredible 148 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: potential for Trevor Lawrence, I think Doug Peterson's is a 149 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: it's a great hire. And look, they got a lot 150 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: of money to spend. They got the number one pick. 151 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: I assume they're going to use it on an offensive 152 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: tackle because you just you can't go through another season 153 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: with Trevor Lawrence getting his head kicked in from a 154 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: bad offensive line and they're I think they have a 155 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: chance to get good in a hurry. I really do. Yeah. Plus, 156 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: you know, people forget to Travis Etn and James. I mean, 157 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: if you can if you can establish a run game 158 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: and you know, not only protect Trevor, but open some 159 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: holes for those guys control the clock a bit, that 160 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: could be a different look in Jacksonville team in twenty 161 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: twenty two. So I want to hit on the Pro 162 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: Bowl real quick. It was tough to watch, but our 163 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: guy got the MVP, so that was fun. Look is 164 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: it tough to watch? Yeah, but six point six million 165 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: people watched it. Well, I know, it's higher than more 166 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: than the World Series. It's it's no, it's more than 167 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: the World Series. It's more than the NBA Finals. Like 168 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: six point six million, it's crazy. It's it's just, you know, 169 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: people like watching NFL football, and you know what, I 170 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: just I think they should take it back to Hawaii, 171 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: you know, and and just kind of have that's such 172 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: a great backdrop. You know, all week the guys are 173 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: hanging out, you know, in the ocean, in the hot tub, 174 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: at the blue ailes. You know, it's it makes for 175 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: great visuals. It's a different experience for them by all accounts. 176 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: You know, the word is that they're you know, they're 177 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: great bonding experiences for all these guys because the families 178 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: come out. It's like a family vacation. So I think 179 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: you can get back to that. It could be a 180 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: lot of fun. You know. The skills challenges are always fun. 181 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: They got a little weird this year. They're a lot 182 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 1: of ridiculous ones, but um, I think you can do 183 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: just you know, we're so afraid to to do something again. 184 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: You know it's like, oh well we can't copy what 185 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: they did. Why not? It was fun like back in 186 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: the day the quarterback challenge stuff they would have is fun, 187 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: my ties floating around or Hawaii. I tweeted out the 188 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: video of Sean Taylor blown up Brian Mormon in the 189 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl saying, oh yeah, that was great. Way going 190 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: to see that. Going to see this again. But you 191 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: know what bring it back? And you know, I know 192 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: Damnishek has talked about like have it be for like 193 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: the number one overall pick? Have like two teams I 194 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: guess the two worst teams of football got a battle 195 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: out for the everyone pick. What do you think about 196 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: that idea? Da I love Damnishek. That's so stupid. I mean, 197 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: come on, what's what's in it for the guys that 198 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: are playing football? That's the problem with Dave's and you know, 199 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: having done the DDFP for years and years with him, uh, 200 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 1: we would get into these two. I'm like, Dave, you 201 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: don't understand that you're asking men to play a game 202 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: of football for which nothing benefits them. There is no 203 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: benefits to the men that are out there kicking each 204 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: other's heads in to get the number one pick. It's 205 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks pleasure to get replaced exactly. No. The answer 206 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: to that is no. And that's why it looks the 207 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: way it does because guys don't want to get hurt. 208 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: They don't want to have any contact. I don't feel 209 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: like sitting in an ice tub after the Pro Bowl, 210 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: So you know, to me, just put flags on him 211 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: and just go all out, you know whatever, Just make 212 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: a flag and go out and have some fun. Well, hey, 213 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: you know, the Super Bowl coverage is everywhere. I want 214 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: to home in a little bit on the Chargers and 215 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: using DJ's top fifty because we trust DJ the most. Um, 216 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: sure make the case for these seven prospects that I 217 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: keep seeing mocks of the Chargers at seven. All right, 218 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: here we go. What do we got? There's seven of them? Um, 219 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: Jordan Davis is the first defensive tackle from Georgia. He's 220 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: six six, he's three forty. He stops the run. Um, 221 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: that's the guy that I've seen the most so far. 222 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 1: As we take this in early February. Look, I said 223 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,959 Speaker 1: this last week on charge this week, and I'll say 224 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: it again, there's people that say you can't afford to 225 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: take someone who's got to come off the field for 226 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: third downs. And I don't know if Jordan Davis has 227 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 1: to come off the field, but that's the knock is 228 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 1: that he is not necessarily someone who's going to get 229 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 1: up field. He's a premier run stuffer. He is a 230 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: premier defensive lineman on first down, on second down, and 231 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 1: if you're going to take him off your board because 232 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: you're not quite sure of you can play on third down, 233 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: I think that's completely ridiculous the charge because I watched 234 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: the games. I saw way too many third and two's, 235 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: third and threes and ones, and that's why they were 236 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: the worst team on third down because they weren't third 237 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: and sevens, and they weren't third and nines because they 238 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 1: couldn't stop the run and those guys every team was 239 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: getting three to five yards on every kerry. So for me, 240 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: I think it makes perfect sense to get someone in there, 241 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: and look, you compare him with someone that can get 242 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 1: up field a little bit more. That's what you want 243 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: from your other defensive tackle. So I have no problem 244 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: with Jordan Davis being there pickets seventeen. Yeah, he's DJ's 245 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: number sixteen overall prospect here in February, and I agree 246 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: with you. We talked about the third downs. Third and 247 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: eight is a heck of a lot different than third one, 248 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: third and two stunt, and that's what happens if if 249 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: if you got to take him off the field and 250 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: third down, fine, but he did his job on first 251 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 1: and second down. So George has got a lot of 252 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: dudes on defense. We'll get into another one here in 253 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: a minute. Yeah, you mentioned this guy last week, Trent 254 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: mcduffee from Washington. He's DJ's number thirteen overall prospect. I 255 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: saw him mock to the Chargers, and this is a 256 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: guy he's he's under six foot. I think that would 257 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: be my only knocking. He may want to get a 258 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,599 Speaker 1: bigger quarter on the other side of Mikey Davis and 259 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: it's note Samuel, but a talented guy who DJ has 260 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 1: in his top fifteen. Yeah. I mean, look, I think 261 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: he's he's under six foot, but he's you know, I 262 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 1: think he's probably sniffing two hundred pounds, so he's a 263 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: bigger guy. Yeah, he's just not a longer guy, So 264 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: I think, you know, he's he's someone that's at least physical. 265 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: I think you know that. Would you like him to 266 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: be a little bit taller, Yeah, but you know Mike's tall, 267 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: so you know you have at least Davis, who's what 268 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: probably six one I would guess is Mike. So you know, 269 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: to me, it's it's less about height and more about build. 270 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: So you know, I can see where McDuffie would fit 271 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 1: in from that standpoint. And you know what he's he's 272 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 1: just a really good solid corner. You know, I think 273 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: that's like to me when you're describing the different corners, 274 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 1: like to me, McDuffie is, you know, to use draft parlance, parlance, 275 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: he's he's the high floor guy, right, He's he's gonna 276 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: be on special teams. He's gonna knock it out on 277 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: special teams. Um and he's gonna you know, he's gonna 278 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: make tackles. He's not gonna miss tackles. And he and look, 279 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: he's a good corner. He's a he's a good all 280 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,199 Speaker 1: around corner. He can play press, he can play zone. 281 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: They asked him to blitz a lot, So I got 282 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: no problem if mcduffee's the selection, what that sauce Gardner. 283 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: I don't think he's getting the top ten, hush six, 284 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: getting out of the I don't think he's getting out 285 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: of the top five. To be honest with you, I 286 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: think corners are so valuable. And my guess is once 287 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: he gets to the combine, once he starts doing some 288 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 1: team stuff and they see the measurables and just the 289 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: explosion that dude's that dude is not getting out of 290 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: the top ten for sure. I don't know if he 291 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: gets out of the top five. All right. The next guy, 292 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: he's an edge guy, George carlaftis from Purdue. Purdue, get 293 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: his name right, number fourteen overall. And you know, I 294 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: think a lot of this is going to be contingent 295 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: on free agency. If Chenna goes elsewhere, you all of 296 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: a sudden have a big hole on the other side 297 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: of Joey Boss. So I think free agency is gonna 298 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: dictate a lot of what we see in the draft. 299 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: Chenna's gonna be tricky. I'm telling you, Chennia is gonna 300 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: be tricky because Chenna's gonna get offered a lot of money. 301 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: You know, there are there's just nobody out there you 302 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: can make the case. Then he's going to be the 303 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: number one rush pass rusher on the market, and a 304 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: lot of teams got a lot of money, you know, 305 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: and Chenna's twenty five and Chenna, you know, the sack 306 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: numbers may not be there, but the pressures are, you know, 307 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: and the hurries are, and he's gotten better every single year. 308 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: So you know, I hope, I hope that Chenna comes back. 309 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: I hope they can figure something out and get a 310 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: deal done with him. But I know it's going to 311 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: be a rich deal. I have no doubt in my mind. 312 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: I just there's all you need is one other All 313 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: you need is two other teams that are doing battle 314 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: with one another to get that number to be super high. 315 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: But you're right if he doesn't come back. Look, I 316 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: think it's it's I don't know if it's a lazy comparison, 317 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: but you know, Carlottis has been compared to Ryan Carrigan, 318 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: another Purdue guy, another voter guy, another white guy. You know. 319 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: So um, but it's I think it's an app comparison. 320 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: I love Purdue guys. I always have. They play their 321 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: tails off. It's just for some reason, West Lafayette creates 322 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: those type of players. So again, no problem with that, 323 00:15:55,760 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: especially especially if it's it's gonna be because Chenna got 324 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: a giant number somewhere else and they just unable to 325 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: tie it up with Joey Bosa making as much as 326 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: he does on the other side. You know, a few 327 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: years ago, it's something that stuck with me. Greg Cassel said, 328 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: you know, we talked about like edge rushers and just 329 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: certain positions that are at a premium because they never 330 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: hit free agency. Like when you have an eleage guy 331 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: like Joey Joey Bosa, like joe Joey's not hitting free 332 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: agency because you're not gonna let him. You. Chenna may 333 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: not be in that category. But like you said, when 334 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: teams have a ton of money and he's the number 335 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: one guy on the market or top two, top three 336 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: pass rusher coming out in free agency, you run the 337 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: risk of losing a guy like that, and again that 338 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: will kind of alter what you do in the draft. 339 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: So I'm with you, man, Like I just saw Chenna 340 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: get better and better too, and maybe more comfortable in 341 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: this scheme, and I think it'd be ashamed to see 342 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: him go elsewhere. But this is the business, well, I think, 343 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, and what if I had to guess. My 344 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: guess is is that you know, by all accounts you 345 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: talked to anybody around the team, they all love Chenna. 346 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: So I'm sure Tom made him an offer, and because 347 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, just the numbers weren't there, the production wasn't 348 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: quite theirs, I'm guessing he bet on himself and he 349 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: probably said, you know what I think I can I 350 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: think I can do better. This is gonna be my 351 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: first time without Melvin Ingram. I'm gonna get my reps, 352 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get my snaps, and I'm gonna be able 353 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: to put a season together. And I'm comfortable, you know, 354 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: going into an unrestricted free agency instead of taking you know, 355 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: a number that was in step with what he had 356 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 1: done up to that point, and you know, projecting what 357 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: he potentially could be, and he's gonna probably, i would guess, 358 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: probably double, if not, you know, forty thirty percent more 359 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: than what that offer probably was, just because there wasn't 360 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: a lot of production there, and he just bet on himself. Hey, whatever, dude, 361 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: I'll be in every down starter now and I'll be 362 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: able to put up numbers that'll be, you know, in 363 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 1: step with what I think I'm worth on the open market, 364 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be a lot. Yeah, when he goes 365 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: into RUMs with teams, he's gonna fire up that Week 366 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 1: eighteen tape first. That's unbelievable. Yeah, all right, Hey linebacker. 367 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: Two guys DJ has in his top ten, number seven, 368 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 1: number eight respectively, Devin Lloyd Utah into Kobe Dean. I've 369 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: seen both of these guys mock to the Bolts, and 370 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: I think this also you factor in Kaisier White and 371 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: also Kenneth Murray, how they view Kenneth Murray. I mean, 372 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: I think that those are the first two things you 373 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: have to ask yourself, Um, if you're going to bring 374 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: in a starting caliber linebacker in this defense, Yeah, you know, 375 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: Kisier is going to be interesting, you know, because the 376 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: numbers are there. But at the same time, you know, 377 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: in Brandon Staey's defense, the numbers are always going to 378 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: be there for that position. So I think you have 379 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: to project is it production because of the player, Is 380 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: it production because of the scheme and he's the guy 381 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 1: that's supposed to get all the tackles funneled to him 382 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: and make those stops, or is it production you know 383 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: for other reasons? And I'm look, it's a mix of both. Right, 384 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: Kaiser had a great year. Kaisier is great athletically, he's 385 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: great physically, He's what a modern day linebacker looks like. 386 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: So to me, that's one that's going to be dependent 387 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 1: on the number. I think it's one hundred percent. What's 388 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: it going to cost When you know you got Herbert 389 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 1: coming up in two years, when you got Mike Williams 390 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: either on a franchise or you're trying to get a 391 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 1: deal done Chenna. You know, there's a lot of guys 392 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to sort through. And I think White, 393 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: even though it might be hard for people to believe 394 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: if it was my guess, I think he's going to 395 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: be lower on the priority list than a lot of 396 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: people think, just because of how you view that position 397 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: and versus the numbers and just kind of you know, yeah, 398 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: one hundred forty whatever it was, hundred forty quar tackles 399 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: or something totally understand that's not easy to do. But 400 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: at the same time, you feel like Nakobe Deane's gonna 401 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: fall to you or Devin Lloyd's gonna fall And again, 402 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: a lot of it comes down to what you say, Okay, 403 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: what's the future of Kenneth Murray. You know how much 404 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: of it was in injury, how much of it was 405 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: just never quite getting comfortable in the scheme. And what's 406 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 1: that going to look like going forward to your point though? 407 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: You know last week when we had your pass on 408 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: and he was talking about na Kobe Dean might slip, 409 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: you know, especially when he's standing next to Devin Lloyd 410 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: and you just see the body beautiful Devin Lloyd and 411 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: the Kobe Dean is a little bit undersized. He's just 412 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: he's just productive, man. I think to me, Dean is 413 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: I would love it again. I love all these guys, 414 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: all right, I would. I would be totally. But Devin 415 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 1: Lloyd's not going to make it the seventeen. He's just 416 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: he's not. He's not not with that, not with that size, 417 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: that length, that ability, the production. I just don't. I 418 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: don't see him having a chance to make it seventeen. Dean. 419 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: I could, um, I could. I could see that happen, 420 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: and I would absolutely love to see him out there. 421 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: Considering what you know you got to deal with with 422 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: running backs and tight ends in this division. Interesting because 423 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 1: you move up to get Kenneth a couple of years 424 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: ago into the first round, and you know what you 425 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: have and Drew Shrank, Well, Kasi is going to be 426 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: the big thing, And I agree with you have to 427 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: kind of prioritize these guys on defense. Justin Jones, m 428 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: Chenna Kaizer, how do you value those guys moving forward? 429 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 1: So linebacker maybe in the conversation, the last two guys 430 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: are right tackles, Funny Trevor Penning, DJ's number twenty five 431 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: prospect and Bernard Raymond number twenty eight. And I think 432 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: DJ likes this guy, he said more than most a 433 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 1: right tackle in the first round. I don't think anybody 434 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: would be opposed to it. Just continuing to solidify this 435 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: offensive line. Yeah, so when I heard, you know, just 436 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: from from DJ and from other guys that were at 437 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: the Senior Bowl, is Penning had an incredible Senior Bowl? 438 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: That he is? He is what your vision is of, 439 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: you know, a right tackle, a road grader, a play 440 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: through the whistle, nasty as all get out, take on 441 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: all comers. And we said it. You know, you don't 442 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: have to have elite players at every position on the 443 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: offensive line. You just can't have a hole. So to me, 444 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: you know, you think about all that you mentioned Chenna's 445 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: Week A teen tape, think about Max Crosby's A Week 446 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: A team tape. You know, now you get a right 447 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: tackle out there, and especially a rookie right tackle where 448 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: let's not forget Tray McKitty pretty darn good, you know, 449 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: towards the end of the season when he started getting 450 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: comfortable as a full service tight end. So now maybe 451 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: you got a rikie right tackle that you feel really 452 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: good about, has first round talent in Raymond or Penning, 453 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: and you got Tray McKitty out there, you know, next 454 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: to them, and you feel like, Okay, not only do 455 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: we have good protection, but got we got elite protection 456 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: now and that's going to do a host of things 457 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: for this team moving forward. If you're asking me to rank, 458 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: like you know, we we've talked about this before. When 459 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: you want to think about a team's draft board, they've 460 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: got in order one through whatever. It might be one 461 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: through seventy, it might be one through three hundred and fifty, 462 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: like you know, whatever their number is, and then they 463 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: have a horizontally by position, here's your number one right 464 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: tackle to right tackle three right here is and then 465 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: what they do is they crossed the cross reference you 466 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: know okay, well, okay, so Raymond's available, Penning's not. Raymond's 467 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: our number twenty seven. Guy McDuffie is our number fourteen. Guy, Uh, 468 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: what do we do? You know what I mean? Or 469 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: let's say McDuffie is our number twenty seven. Guy, Raymond's 470 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: our number twenty eight, guy, what do we do? Well, 471 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: we probably need to corner a little bit more. It's 472 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: a deep tackle class, uh, you know kind of thing. 473 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: So that's that's how all this will work out. I 474 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: bring it up because if it were up to me, 475 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 1: if these guys are even on the on the vertical, 476 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: if they're close to each other on the vertical the horizontal, 477 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 1: I want the corner, you know, I want the corner. 478 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm fine. I would rather dip into the second round 479 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: for a right tackle than a corner at this point. 480 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: You know, I'd rather get one of the bigger guys, 481 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: you know, with a little bit more physical, you know, 482 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: with the bigger stature kind of thing, than I would 483 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: a right tackle that I don't have to worry about 484 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,919 Speaker 1: for the next time. I don't act. You see, then 485 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: I say it, and I'm like, I know it's I'm 486 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: having two tackles. That you don't have to worry about 487 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: for ten years is pretty darn sweet. Um. But you 488 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: know what, we got super Bowl fifty six on Sunday. 489 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 1: Whitworth's been a shell of himself. Who's the right tackles 490 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: at no boom average the Bengals prince is, Oh, you know, 491 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: Jonah Williams has not been good and you got two 492 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: teams in the Super Bowl. So yeah, it's hard to 493 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: make the case that you need elite offensive line play 494 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 1: when two teams in the Super Bowl do not have him. Yeah. 495 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 1: I meanwhile, look at what you know, Look what Mike 496 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: Hilton's doing as a slot corner for the Bengals. Look 497 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: at what Jalen Ramsey does, like you know what I mean. 498 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: So that's that's kind of where where you remember when 499 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: everybody was banging on the Bengals are dressing Jamar Chase 500 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: over Penney Sewell over Penny. Yeah, nor would they be. 501 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: I don't think they'd be. I certainly wasn't. Yeah, I 502 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: know you weren't, but there was a lot, you know. 503 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: But at the same time, like that's something they have 504 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: to figure out. Joe Burrow cannot take fifty one sacks 505 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: next year. His career role. Last he'll be David carr 506 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: be Andrew Luck, he'll be out of the league as 507 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: tough as he is. Those things add up. So you know, 508 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: if Justin's taken a ton of hits because it's a 509 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 1: leaky right side, even though he's built differently than either 510 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 1: of those guys, you still don't want that. That's that's 511 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: priority one, right. Priority one is get the quarterback. Priority 512 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: two is protect the quarterback. Priority three is get the quarterback, 513 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 1: get to the quarterback. So you know you can do 514 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: that with great coverage and average pass rush. You can 515 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: do that with great pass rush and average coverage. So 516 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: you know that's those are the formulas that that Tom 517 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: Tolesco and Joejoe and everybody on that step. But not 518 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: to figure out a couple quick things for you before 519 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: we just shift to the Super Bowl. And in this 520 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: thing in terms of like a luxury pick, right, you 521 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: see Justin Herbert throwing touchdowns of Mark Andrews and the 522 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl and you're like, hmm, be nice to maybe 523 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: get a get a tight end. And I know you're 524 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: passa talked about the fact that it's it's fairly deep 525 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: in mid to late rounds and then I really do 526 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: think in the second of the third round, if you 527 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: can identify a really good running back two who maybe 528 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: a running back one, and allow Austin to just do 529 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,880 Speaker 1: what he does all over the field, those are two 530 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: things that can make a really good passing offense and 531 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 1: really offense overall in general not much better in twenty 532 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: twenty two. So here's my thoughts on that. And we 533 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: just did it on Super Bowl today. What are you 534 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: think of this? So let's just Steven Anderson's back, Trey 535 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:37,160 Speaker 1: mckitty's back. I hope Donald Palm is good and clear 536 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: and he'll be back. Gronk, Wow, I love it. He 537 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: probably said he wanted to play, you know, he was 538 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: asked about it on his Super Bowl tour. He's like, look, 539 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,199 Speaker 1: I'd love to play with Joe Burrow. You know, Okay, 540 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 1: I get it. I would too. Who wouldn't want to 541 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 1: play with Joe Burrow? But maybe that's because you don't 542 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: know that there's there's a potential hole at tight end 543 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: play with Justin Herbert, And he talked about how much 544 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: he loved playing at Tampa instead of New England and 545 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: the warm weather, and you see, like, if you take 546 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: the collection of what Herbert put together for Jared Cooke, 547 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: Donald Parham, Steven Anderson. You know, going back to last 548 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 1: year with Hunter Henry, you don't want to come on 549 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 1: and be part of that like in that way because 550 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: of the you know, because of how Joe Lombardi and 551 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: Brandon Staley used their tight ends, because you do have McKitty, 552 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,879 Speaker 1: because you do have Anderson, because you do have Harum. 553 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: You're not gonna put a ton of wear and tear 554 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 1: on that guy. But when you need it, and when 555 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady needed it, who was there for it? Grunt 556 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: was you know, he's a clutch player. Like to me, 557 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: I like it. I think it's it's something too where 558 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: justin you find that instant chemistry. Um, yeah, you want 559 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: to play with Joe Burrow, but how about Justin Herbert 560 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles at something? I mean, you know that's 561 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: what I mean. And I don't know. I have this 562 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: dream of a guy like Bruce Hall in the backfield 563 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: who can do all the things that Eckler can do 564 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: as well, but also is a bigger back and it 565 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: just makes the offense that much scarier man, especially if 566 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: you can identify a right tackle. I think there's a 567 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: lot of possibilities to make the offense even better than 568 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: what it was. And then obviously it's going to take 569 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 1: free agency and a lot of these picks to get 570 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: the defense to what we expected it to be this 571 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 1: past season. Yeah. I mean, look, I think the one 572 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: thing about the running back is they've tried, right. You know, 573 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 1: they drafted Josh Kelly two years ago in the fourth round. 574 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: They drafted Larry round Tree in the fifth round last year. 575 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: You know, you can get value in the later rounds 576 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: at running back. You know, we saw with Elijah Mitchell 577 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: in San Francisco. We've seen it, you know, with Gibson, 578 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: we've seen it, with Robinson, We've seen like we've seen that. 579 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: So I think for the Chargers it's just a matter 580 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: of identifying the right guy, you know, and and getting 581 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: the right guy in there. I don't know if you necessarily, 582 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, need to expend you know, day one or 583 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: day two to draft capital on. And I think it's 584 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: just your evaluations got to be right, you know, And 585 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: I think we saw you know, there's so much of 586 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: mean wonders about Josh Kelly and just those fumbles early 587 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: you know that he had in his career he just 588 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: it seems like it took him a minute to shake 589 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: all that off. So I'm hopeful because you know, we've 590 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: seen it. We've just seen those moments with josh And look, 591 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: we know Justin Jackson can do it. He just can't 592 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: stay on the field for whatever reason. His body has 593 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: betrayed him his professional career when it never did in college. 594 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: That never wonets to snap. So you know, I think 595 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: it's sorting through what you have versus you know, how 596 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: much do you want to expend on you know, how 597 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: much draft capital are you willing to expend on a 598 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: running back and how much do you think that will 599 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: impact you versus corner, linebacker, offensive line. Maybe you need 600 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: a wide receiver, you know, just to add the depth there. 601 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: You know, with Mike Williams future a little bit uncertain 602 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: if it is if they can't figure out a long 603 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: term feeling his franchise. So look, man, it's it's a 604 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: tough puzzle to put together. You know, there's there's no 605 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: doubt about it. And that's why those guys make all 606 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: the money they make, and we make me man, Yep, 607 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: that's right, Joshua Kelly too. I mean, coincidentally, Week one, 608 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: against the Bengals. You saw that confidence. I think he 609 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: may have scored the only touchdown of the game for 610 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: the Chargers in Week one. And then you mentioned those fumbles. 611 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: I was the fumbles against Kansas City. Yeah, I still yeah, 612 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: we'll see. We'll see how the team looks at running 613 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: back to and if if they said, hey, it just 614 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: took too long to find out who running back to 615 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: was last year, that we need to bring somebody else in, 616 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: or if they're good with going with Kelly and Justin 617 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: Jackson again. So yeah, um money, let's say quick break, 618 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: get your Super Bowl predictions, and we'll get at he 619 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: all right, guys, Another reminder that you can both of 620 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: your experience right before the big game with ten dollars 621 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,479 Speaker 1: off your first three months of YouTube TV.

I 631 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a great game, you know, I 632 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: really do. I can't quite figure out what which team 633 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 1: I think is gonna win. You know, there's so many 634 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: interesting sub plots and situations that I think bear putting 635 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: credence and weight into. Right, Matthew Stafford has been the 636 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: best fourth quarter quarterback in football in the regular season 637 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: and in the playoffs. Joe Burrow has been the best 638 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,040 Speaker 1: third and fourth down quarterback in the regular season and 639 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. That's what you want, right, Hey, it's 640 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: a tight game? Is my guy nails under pressure? Yes, 641 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford is third and fourth down to the money down. 642 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: She convert those and you keep the other offense off 643 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: the fields? Might good of that? Yes he is? You know. 644 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: You think about the receiving corps and Cooper Cup putting 645 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: together in the most prolific, the most prolific pass catching 646 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: season in the history of the NFL. On the other side, 647 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase putting together the most prolific rookie campaign in 648 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: the history of the NFL. And then they're supporting casts 649 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: how good. And I don't I don't think Higgins's gonna play, 650 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: but you got Odell Beckham Junior is your number two, 651 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: you know, and we know what with Boyd and what 652 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: Higgins are capable of doing. So both teams have a 653 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: full complimentary receivers. Both backs. Cam Akers really started to 654 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: get it going in that game. You know, I know 655 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: the numbers aren't there, but you could just kind of 656 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: seeing him starting to shake off that rust. And he's 657 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: a good back shoe. Maxon's exceptional, So I think I 658 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: keep you know, and then then I go to the defenses, 659 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: right and you've got a Bengal scene that held the 660 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: Chiefs to three points in the second half that you know, 661 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: that held Derrick Henry to three yards per carry, that 662 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: held the Raiders offense to seventeen point like, so their 663 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,719 Speaker 1: defense is good. You know, they're really good. And Matthew 664 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: Stafford has eaten up the blitz all season long. The 665 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: Bengals don't blitz. Not only do they not blitz, they 666 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: get home with four. They got home with three against 667 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, against Patrick Mahomes in that a se championship game. 668 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: And obviously I don't need to say anything. With the 669 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: Rams defense, it's a freaking nightmare, especially upfront with those 670 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: four guys. So that leads me to believe that it's 671 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:34,959 Speaker 1: going to be a close game, which is why it's 672 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a blowout, and it's gonna be terrible, and 673 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: one of these teams is gonna be up twenty seven 674 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: to three before you blink. I just, you know, I 675 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: go back to which team, which team do you think 676 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 1: is more talented, or which team do you think has 677 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: the better matchups? And I just feel like the Rams 678 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: have better matchups, you know, I feel like that offensive 679 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: line versus the Rams defensive line is a mess. Those matchups. 680 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: They it's advantage Leonard Floyd, advantage, Aaron Donald, advantage Von Miller. 681 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 1: You know that's that to me is so it's such 682 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: a mountain overcome. And we saw what Harold Landry and 683 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: Justin Simmons did to them nine sacks, and now you're 684 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: talking about Leonard, Floyd, Near and Donald. So like, to me, 685 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: that's the other side of that done. I'm talking about 686 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: my other side. It didn't matter. Joe broddn't care. I've 687 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 1: ever seen did not cared. Yeah, so you have one guy, 688 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 1: when you have one guy that you could say, whoa 689 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: despite all that, we got Joe Burrow. Yeah, um, yeah, 690 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: you're I guess. You know, people everybody wants to know 691 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: what I'm doing and they want this pick. So I've 692 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: got to give it to him. I'll say. I'll say, 693 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: oh man, I'll say Bengals, Bengals twenty eight, Rams twenty 694 00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 1: four No, wow, let me change that. Let me change that. Well, 695 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: let me go twelve fourteen. So I'm gonna go Bengals 696 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: twenty six. Why four field goals for Evan McPherson, each 697 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: of them over fifty yards, including the game winner with 698 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: zeros that's sixty one and he's the MVP. How about that? 699 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 1: A kicker will be the MVP of the Super Bowl 700 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 1: with four field goals, including a game winner from sixty 701 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: one yards at Soapy Stadium where we know it's easy 702 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: to boot incredibly long field goals. Evan Money McPherson could 703 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 1: be smoking a cigar in the locker room taking Joe 704 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: Burrows MVP. Like, imagine if it's a defensive battle and 705 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: let's maybe take it that, you know, like for that 706 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: to happen, Let's just have a little fun here. Imagine 707 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 1: it's like a twelve to seven game and all four 708 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 1: and all twelve of their points came off kicks, and 709 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: all four of those kicks were fifty plus. I mean, 710 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 1: you would give it to the kicker, right, you have to, right, 711 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: he's and he's so good. Like I mean, I don't 712 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: know if if bias creeps in, but like what he 713 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: did to get them to the Super Bowl. I mean, apparely, 714 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: what in the Tennessee game he goes up to Burrow 715 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: and says, looks like we're going to the championship before 716 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: the game, and that was outdoors fifteen degrees. What was 717 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: that thing forty nine yards fifty one yards or something 718 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: that was not a chip shot, that was a boot 719 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: that he had to kick them into the AFC Championship. 720 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 1: Stafford that that stat you had. I think he's sixteen touchdown, 721 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: zero interceptions when he's blitzed um and like he said, 722 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: Bengals don't blitz much, right, So that's a that's an 723 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 1: interesting thing to kind of keep in the back of 724 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: your head. I love some of these storylines, though maybe 725 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 1: you get you got Sean McVay Super Bowl experienced two 726 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: point zero. He had to go up against Belichick the 727 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: first time, What did he learn? How is he approaching 728 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: it differently? And he's got one of his pupils on 729 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: the other side, right. I don't think a lot of 730 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 1: people thought Zach Taylor would be in the super Bowl 731 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: and in three seasons and Cincinnati, Yet here we are. 732 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 1: I also loved I also love the fact that Whitworth 733 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 1: was a long time bangle and spent some time rehabbing 734 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: with with Joe Burrow rehabing their knees this offseason. Lsu 735 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: guys um. Those are kind of the fun stories that 736 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: that kind of supplement the action on the field. But listen, 737 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: I look at the Rams and their defense they have. 738 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: If if you said who are the two best defensive 739 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: players in football, I'd probably say Aaron Donald and then 740 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: Jalen Ramsey, and then then you have Leonard Floyd and 741 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: Von Miller. I feel like those acquisitions that they made 742 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: in the middle of the year, you're starting to see 743 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: the fruits of that. It's peaking at the right time. 744 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be very difficult for the 745 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: Bengals to to beat the Rams if the Rams play 746 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: to their full potential. That said, we saw the unexpected 747 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: in the second half of that game right arrowheading. It 748 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: was a tale of two halves, and and it was 749 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 1: that right before the half. I said, this feels significant 750 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: that the Chiefs didn't get that touchdown before they have 751 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 1: U Bengals defense took advantage of it. Yeah, I think 752 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:10,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna be. You know, the Rams have a pretty 753 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: good kicker too in Matt Gay, so they do. He's 754 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: not McPherson, now, he's not He's not money anything, and 755 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: he's missed two bad ones. He missed a bad one 756 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: against Tampa and he missed a bad one against the 757 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers as well. McPherson hasn't missed a kick 758 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: in the postseason. You know, like it's less. We got 759 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,720 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase versus Chain Ramsey. We got we got Chas Ramsey. 760 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: All right, give me an underdog story, give me a 761 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 1: give me Bengals twenty three Rams twenty all right, there 762 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: we go. We're in concert. We both got the Bengals, 763 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: got the Bengals and the Chargers. They did beat the 764 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 1: Bengals in the regular season, and didy four twenty one, right, 765 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: was up twenty four nothing. I think I think it 766 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: was I think it was forty one twenty four there 767 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: we go. Yeah, forty one twenty four. Then that's because 768 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: I think they tied it up in twenty four, right, 769 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 1: they did not ever take the lead. It was you 770 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: know what money it was forty one twenty two because 771 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 1: I think it was twenty four twenty two at one 772 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 1: point um, and that's right. And they didn't get the 773 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: they didn't get the two point conversion. They didn't get 774 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: the exactly exactly, and I was like, oh, I remember 775 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: saying that it's twenty f I'm like, you know what. 776 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: I liked that they weren't able to tie it up. 777 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: They weren't able to get all the way back. Now 778 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: the Chargers can go down and get a score, extend 779 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: that lead to thirty one, and you feel good about it. 780 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what they did. That's right, forty one two. 781 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: I want a good game. I think we'll get a 782 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: good game and we'll we'll be here next week to 783 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 1: break it down as well as that.
