00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Official Jets Podcast powered

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: by Amazon Web Services. The opponent previous series rolling on

3
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: Here e A and I breaking down the Denver Broncos

4
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: or the Jets take on in week four on Thursday

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 1: Night Football, and we're joined by Eric Delala, the lead

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: writer of Denver Broncos dot com. So will hear from

7
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: him and e A. I feel like this Broncos team

8
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 1: is interesting, to say the least, because you know, they

9
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: have a young quarterback with Drew Lock. They get new

10
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,840
Speaker 1: weapons with Jerry Judy and kJ Hamdler to go along

11
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: with Courtland Sutton, and of course they have Von Miller

12
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: and Bradley Chubb. But I almost feel like I don't

13
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: know what to make of the Denver Broncos. They just

14
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 1: feel like a kind of a question mark right now.

15
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: To me, I do feel like they're kind of a

16
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: question mark as well. But could would either one of

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: us be surprised if Denver is sitting there in December

18
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: and they're within striking distance of play of birth. I

19
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: certainly would not be Kansas City the overwhelming favorite in

20
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: that a f C West, But the Broncos have a

21
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,320
Speaker 1: lot of good players on both sides of the football.

22
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: I think about the defensive front. First, Von Miller is

23
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: a terror. Bradley Chubb only played four games last season

24
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 1: and now he's gonna come back healthy. You add Daral

25
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: Casey to the mix, and that line can give you

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: a lot of problems if you're not on your p's

27
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: and queues up front and you're making sure you're taking

28
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: care of business. And for the Jets, they're gonna have

29
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: to have a balance attack when they play the Denver Broncos.

30
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: Although there are similarities between the Jets and the Broncos,

31
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: I think the Jets are for there along where they're

32
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: at them where the Broncos are right. I think the

33
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: Broncos on paper have a lot of talent. And then

34
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: of course, you know, I feel like we have to

35
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: talk about Drew Lock because rookie last year, he got

36
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: placed on I R. He comes off and he really

37
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: finished the season well. And I feel like I read

38
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: a lot of articles that we're encouraging in terms of

39
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: Drew Lock and his progression. But I'm curious to see

40
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: what he does this year with new offensive weapons, in

41
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: a weird offseason, with a new offensive coordinator. It just

42
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: feels like the Broncos right now are a lot better

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: on paper, and we'll see what happens when the Jets

44
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: and Broncos finally meet on Week four in prime time

45
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: teams certainly transition. You mentioned Lock. It's interesting the connections

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: between these ball clubs because Joe Flacco was opening day

47
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: starter for the Denver Broncos last year. Then he went

48
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: out and the Broncos gave the ball to the young rookie.

49
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: He's an athletic player and we saw that at Missouri.

50
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: He can keep plays alive with his legs, but he

51
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: keeps his eyes down the field and he can make

52
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 1: every throw. But how are they gonna block him up front?

53
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: I have this question marks about the Broncos offensive line,

54
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: and the Jets actually took one of their pieces in

55
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: the off season Condor recovered coming here as Joe Douglas

56
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: revamped that Jets offensive line, and you know, while the

57
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: skilled players are talented around him, how are all those

58
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: pieces gonna fit immediately? Because it's nice to say, hey,

59
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy was a great route runner at Alabama and

60
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 1: he's an explosive guy, but it's his first year under

61
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: Pat Shermer, and those guys have not been on the

62
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 1: practice field at all. The same can be said for

63
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 1: kJ Hamdler, another speedster guy. I can make plays happen

64
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: with the ball in his hands, but he's never went

65
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: through an NFL offseason before. Then, in the offensive backfield,

66
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay, who has been productive throughout his National Football

67
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: League career here in the early stages, but the Broncos

68
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: went out Melvin Gordon as well, So how is that

69
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: going to work? Are those guys gonna share time in

70
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: the backfield a fifty fifty split? Do you go with

71
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: the hot hands? So while they do have talent, it's like,

72
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: how is it all going to work in a short

73
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: amount of time? And you mentioned Shermer coming upboard, Yeah,

74
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: I totally agree with that, and I think that it'll

75
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: be very interesting to see how all these pieces come together,

76
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: especially considering the offseason right now is all virtual. And

77
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: let's hear from lead Broncos dot com writer Eric Lalla

78
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 1: and what he thinks of this Broncos team. Eric, I

79
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: want to start off with the draft here because I

80
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: feel like John Elway, similar to Joe Douglass wrapping his

81
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 1: arms around Sam Donald, feels like John Elway is wrapping

82
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: his arms around Drew Lock, especially with the additions of

83
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: Jerry Judy and kJ Hamler to go along with Courtland Sutton. Yeah,

84
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 1: a lot of similarities I think between these two teams

85
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: in terms of how they're embracing those young quarterbacks. And

86
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 1: like you mentioned, Jerry Judy and Ceedee Lamb were both

87
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 1: on the board there at fifteen. Uh, probably the Broncos

88
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: heaven in that situation. John Elways said later they did

89
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: a bunch of mock drafts and Judy never made it there. Uh,

90
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 1: they always had to trade up for him. But obviously

91
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: the way things fell, they had their pick and selected Judy,

92
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: and you know that was somewhat of a surprise maybe

93
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: that they were there, But the real surprise came in

94
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: round two when they picked kJ Hamler, the speedster from

95
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 1: Penn State. He's a guy that in the slot can

96
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: stretch defenses. And yeah, I think they did everything they

97
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: possibly could to give Drew Lock the chance to succeed.

98
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: There's gonna be no excuses now for Drew if he

99
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,040
Speaker 1: doesn't go out there and perform at the level that

100
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: they're hoping, which is good enough to bring the Broncos

101
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 1: back to the playoffs, a lot of connections in the

102
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: National Football League. The Jets just picked up picked up

103
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,239
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco, who started the season last year in Denver

104
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: before Drew Lock took over. But what did you make

105
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: of what you saw out of Luck in his first

106
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: plane experience, extended plane experience. Yeah, I mean with Drew

107
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: listen to talent is there, and that's why he got

108
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: drafted in the second round. That's why he was being

109
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: talked about as a top ten pick when we went

110
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 1: into the draft a year ago. Some of the concerns

111
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: about him, you know, his accuracy, turn off, his back foot,

112
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: being consistent, those things were prevalent to some degree in

113
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 1: the preseason, much less so by the time he came

114
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: back at the end of the season after being on

115
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: i R for eight weeks. In part, everybody said that

116
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: that time really helped Drew. It let him sit back

117
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: and let him process things. And obviously in Denver kind

118
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 1: of the natural quarterback comparison as Paxson Lynch because he

119
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: was drafted in sixteen. He's that last QB that they

120
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: drafted high. And you know Paxxton, they were kind of

121
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: chatter about him playing a lot of video games. He

122
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: never really took advantage of the chance he had. Drew

123
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: has been completely the opposite. There were stories of him

124
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: during t a s staying up until one in the morning,

125
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: reading play, calls to himself in the mirror, recording himself,

126
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: and listening to him back on the bus on the

127
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: way to practice. And so I think that work ethic

128
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: both helps him when he was finally able to get

129
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: in there and also proved to his teammates that he

130
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: can be the guy. And you know that more than anything,

131
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 1: I think it's important because your teammates have to believe

132
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: in you at the quarterback position for this whole thing

133
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: to work, and they definitely believe in Drew from that perspective.

134
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: And then his talent when he gets on the field

135
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: is evident. He had a throw to Courtland Sutton in

136
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: his first game against the Chargers that was absolutely perfect,

137
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: you know, about a thirty yards strike to the right

138
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: corner of the end zone he had to throw off

139
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: his back foot in Houston when he threw for over

140
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: three yards and three touchdowns. He's got the talent, and

141
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: now it's just can he be consistent enough, can you

142
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: take that step forward? He'll have help like you mentioned

143
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: with Jerry Judy, kJ Hamler, Courtland's Sutton Melvin Gordon, and

144
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay obviously both Pro Bowl running backs. I personally

145
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: think know a fan might be his favorite target because

146
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: just from a mismatched perspective, the young tight end I

147
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: think can take a step forward here in year two.

148
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: But now it's just you know, can you do it?

149
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 1: Because everybody talked about Baker Mayfield out in Cleveland kind

150
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: of the same way going into year two, and he

151
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: didn't really do that, and so now Drew's got to

152
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: make sure that he does his part. So you mentioned

153
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: some of the flaws and Drew locks game, especially his

154
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,239
Speaker 1: rookie season in the preseason more so that you mentioned,

155
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: But what are some maybe not so much with the

156
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 1: talent around here, but what are some technical things that

157
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: you think Drew Lock needs to improve on entering his

158
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 1: second year. Yeah, I mean it's still knowing when to

159
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: make some the right decisions. He forced some throws that

160
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: he would tell you he shouldn't have made and that

161
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: led to a couple of interceptions went against the Chargers,

162
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: went against the Texans. Uh. He still throws off his

163
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 1: back foot at times. I think he needs to get

164
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: set a little bit more. His accuracy somewhat of an

165
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 1: issue at times, especially early in games when he was

166
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: trying to settle down. But I think the biggest thing

167
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: for Drew is not necessarily technical, it's you know, being smart.

168
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: This This is a guy that ran around a lot

169
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: at Missouri and made plays and that's fine, that's great,

170
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: that's part of his game. But he took some shots

171
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: there at the end of the season. I think it

172
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: was Week sixteen against Detroit. He was scrambling and just

173
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: got blasted out of bounds and it drew a you know,

174
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 1: a late hit penalty, but still that fifteen yards. It's

175
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: not worth it if Drew lock is out for eight

176
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: games because this team is set up Withdrew, I think,

177
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: to make a push for a playoff spot. But without

178
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: Drew and this is no offense to Jeff Driscoll, the

179
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: backup quarterback. But without Drew, this is not a playoff team.

180
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: And so he's got to just he's got to learn,

181
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: you know, how to take care of himself in the NFL,

182
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 1: how to get out of some of these bad plays.

183
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: Just throw it away. And that's kind of the case

184
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: with any young quarterback, right that's just a learning process

185
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: that some of these things you can do in college

186
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: you can and do at the next level. All Right,

187
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: we all love talking offense, and both these teams have

188
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks, of course, and I actually have an additional

189
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: offensive questions that we'll get to later. But let's flip

190
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: to the defensive side of ball. This Broncos defense, to me, guys,

191
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: on paper, it's relatively stacked. You just added a pair

192
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: of veterans there in Denver in cornerback A J. Boullier

193
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: and also impressive interior defense alignment Derel Casey. I guess

194
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: let's start up front. What is Casey gonna do to

195
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: help Von Miller and Bradley Chubb on the outside. And

196
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: I think people are also overlooked overlooking the fact when

197
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: Jets fans might be looking at the Broncos that Chubb

198
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: only played four games last year or so, if he's healthy,

199
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: you got him and bon Miller on the edges, and

200
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: now you're adding this menace in Casey. Yeah. Well, let's

201
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: start with what Chubb and von were before he got there,

202
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: and in their one season together when Chubb was healthy,

203
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 1: Chubb had twelve sacks and Vaughan had fourteen and a

204
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: half and they were really impressive. I mean against the

205
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: Rams who went on to the Super Bowl that year,

206
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: Chubb had three sacks as a rookie. Uh they tormented

207
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 1: opposing quarterbacks. And then last year that didn't really happen.

208
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 1: The Broncos didn't have a sack through their first three

209
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: games and din't force a turnover until Week five, and

210
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: everyone was kind of like, well, where's this Vic Fangio

211
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 1: defense We've heard about? But things started to get going

212
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 1: a little bit. Chubb tears his a c L week

213
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: four against the Jaguars, and Vaughan, you know, he dealt

214
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: with some knee issues. The rest of the year. He

215
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: had a career low, I believe, you know, for a

216
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 1: full season he had a less in but only had

217
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: eight sacks, and so the past rush wasn't quite what

218
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: it has been. And now you bring in Darrell Casey,

219
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: a guy who has had at least five sacks you know,

220
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: every season, I think for the last seven years, made

221
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: five straight Pro Bowls. He's a guy I think one

222
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: the positional versatility of him if you put him at

223
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 1: defensive end on the same side that either Chubb or

224
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 1: Vaughan is lining up on what's a what's the tackle

225
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: supposed to do? I mean, then you've got to put

226
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: a running back out there to supposedly blocked Chubb or Vaughan.

227
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to go very well. But

228
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 1: to be able to have that interior push from Casey

229
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: if he's playing at the nose, I mean, that's going

230
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: to help one of them out because you can't double

231
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: team all those guys, and so I think the pressure

232
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: upfront should help the back end because that's kind of

233
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: where I still have questions. You mentioned a J Boy,

234
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: but I'm not so certain how that cornerback groups gonna

235
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: play out. Can you just elaborate that a little bit.

236
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: Obviously Chris Harris goes to the division rival Chargers, and

237
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: then I just kind of curious to what do you

238
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: think the state of the second area is with the

239
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: guy like a J Boy, and of course Justin Simmons

240
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 1: Ins and the back end there. Yeah, Justin Simmons a

241
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: second team All Pro last year. He's kind of a

242
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: rising star on the Coast defense. I think you could

243
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 1: argue he's their best player franchise tag currently. I know

244
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: they're working toward a long term deal. We'll see if

245
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: that gets done or if he plays the year on

246
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: the tag. You've got Cream Jackson next to him at

247
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: safety of Pro Bowl Alternate last year they could they're

248
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: arguably the best safety duo in the league. And I

249
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: know you guys have a good one out there in

250
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: New York. The cornerback is where I have questions because

251
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: you've got Boyer who in was really good, but he

252
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: was playing alongside Jalen Ramsey and now he's the unquestioned

253
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: number one. In Denver, you've got Bryce Callahan, who he

254
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: came over from Chicago last year in free agency, and

255
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: he was a nickel purely in Chicago and was expected

256
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: to kind of take on that outside cornerback world in Denver.

257
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: Suffered or kind of reaggravated a foot injury that he

258
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: had never saw the field at all last year, didn't

259
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: play a single snap, and so we still really don't

260
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: know what he's going to give the Broncos. You know,

261
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: can he play out he's a smaller guy. Is he

262
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: going to fit in the slot? Which means the Broncos

263
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: obviously needs somebody else outside and at that position, that's

264
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: where there's a bunch of young guys. They drafted a

265
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: cornerback at Iowa in the third round of Michael Ogimudia.

266
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: They've got DeVante Bosby who played some snaps. They've got

267
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: Davante Harris who played some snaps. But there's nobody that's

268
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: really proven there. And so that's why wouldn't shock me

269
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: as the season gets closer if the Broncos maybe, you know,

270
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: poke around a little bit at some of these veteran

271
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: cornerbacks that are still on the market, because outside of

272
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: that guys, I mean, you look at the front seven

273
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: we mentioned how good they are. You've got Alexander Johnson

274
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: at middle linebacker, who was a first round type guy

275
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: before he dealt with some legal issues after being at Tennessee.

276
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: He's now kind of the center of that linebacking corps.

277
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: We've got a really good safety group. The edge rushers

278
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: are great. So you don't want, I don't think you

279
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: want that piece at cornerback to be the one thing

280
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: that makes this group fall apart. So that's why I

281
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: kind of look at a veteran guy to to maybe

282
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: solidify the group. What are the Jets getting informer Broncos

283
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: center Connor McGovern and second part of that. Why is

284
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: he not back in Denver? Why did the Broncos up

285
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: to let him go to free agency? Because he's a

286
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: young guy. Um and obviously he cashed in, But what

287
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: was the situation there that made him expendable. Yeah, Connor

288
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 1: great locker room guy, dependable, played really really well. I thought, uh,

289
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: you know, he's uh. I thought he struggled at times. Uh,

290
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: maybe in the in the run game, but it was

291
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: a good pass blocker. I thought, uh, you know, he's

292
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: just he's the center of your offensive line that you

293
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 1: can depend upon. And he worked really well with Drew

294
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: lock dealt with three different quarterbacks last year and handled

295
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: it fine. I think the reason he's not back in

296
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: Denver is purely cost. It's nothing more than that they

297
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: wanted him back. I think they talked to him a

298
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 1: little bit, but obviously he took the contract out in

299
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: New York. So I don't think there's any concerns there.

300
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: You know, they let Matt Parrotus leave a year earlier

301
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: to Carolina, and they did have some concerns there about

302
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: his ankle and how that was going to heal up.

303
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: But with Connor for nothing but good things, I don't

304
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: think it was anything other than, uh, you know, being

305
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: priced out a little bit. And the Broncos have not

306
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: the last couple of years had a lot of desirable

307
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: free agents that have hit the market, and this year,

308
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: for the first time, they had some guys that they

309
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: kind of knew they weren't going to be able to

310
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: resign with Chris Harris Jr. Connor McGovern somehow had Shelby Harris,

311
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: a defensive lineman, fall back to them. But yeah, only

312
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: good things for me on Connor Erica. My last question

313
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: here is one is going to be focused on the

314
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: offensive line, and with Connor McGovern's departure, then incomes Graham

315
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: Glasgow and comes Lloyd Cushionberry. What's your evaluation of the

316
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: Broncos offensive line and do you think that that's pot

317
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: actually a matchup that the Jets could exploit when these

318
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: two teams meet in Week four. Sure, I think that's

319
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 1: definitely possible, just because you don't know what this group

320
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 1: is gonna look like. I mean, you've got Dalton risen

321
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: Or at left guard and he was an All Rookie

322
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 1: player last year. I think he's got Pro Bowl potential.

323
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: But other than that, you know, it's possible that the

324
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: rest of the group could look entirely different. Just going

325
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,679
Speaker 1: left to right, you've got garat Bowls at left tackle,

326
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 1: who has been consistently available since he was drafted in

327
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: uh let's say, I guess seventeen from Utah, but he's

328
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: had all these holding penalties, leads the league by a

329
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 1: wide margin in those, and so they're gonna have an

330
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: open competition with him there with Elijah Wilkinson, who he's

331
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: played some right guard, some right tackle, but you know

332
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 1: he doesn't have the penalty issues, but he allowed a

333
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 1: lot of sacks last season, so that left tackle position

334
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: is kind of a concern. At center, you might have

335
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 1: a rookie starting there and Lloyd Cushionberry from l s U.

336
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 1: At right guard, you've got Graham Glasgow, who you know,

337
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 1: he's dependable, he's played a lot of snaps, a good blocker,

338
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: but we just don't know yet how he fits in

339
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: on this offensive line. And then at right tackle, you

340
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 1: paid a bunch of money in excuse me twenty nineteen

341
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: to go sign Joan James from the Dolphins, and he

342
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: played three games last year for you and played very

343
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: minimal snaps, and so he's got to come back, and

344
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: so it's just a lot of question marks along that line.

345
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: I think the interior has potential to be really good,

346
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: but at those tackle positions, that's where the Broncos kind

347
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: of have to see things work out. I'd actually be

348
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: more nervous about the right tackle position just because you know,

349
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 1: Garrett Balls might have a holding penalty a game, but

350
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: he's available, he's there, He's pretty good outside of those penalties.

351
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: Juwan James, we need to see him stay healthy. Eric,

352
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 1: I'm not going to ask you to predicts the wins

353
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 1: and losses for the Broncos throughout their first quartet of games,

354
00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: but on paper verse Tennessee at Pittsburgh, verse Tom Brady

355
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and then a short week

356
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,719
Speaker 1: coming to New York for Thursday night game against the Jets.

357
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: What do you think about that first on set of

358
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 1: games for this team? Yeah, I mean, no uh, margin

359
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 1: for error there, huh. And you know, after we play

360
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 1: in New York, we've got a road game in New

361
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 1: England the next week. Who we don't We have no

362
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: idea what they're gonna look like. I mean, you could

363
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: be looking at oh and three right there if you slip,

364
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: and then the Jets are a team that, you know,

365
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: Broncos fans might have said, hey, that's a game we

366
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: should win before the schedule comes out. But then it's

367
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: potentially the hardest, you know, the way it could have

368
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: set up being on a short week across the country,

369
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: so that one's gonna not be easy at all either.

370
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: And so the Broncos are going to be tested here early.

371
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: They've just got to kind of survive this first stretch

372
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 1: of games. What do you think about when the Jets

373
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: and the Broncos meet up in terms of where it

374
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: is in the schedule, being the short week of the

375
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: Jets the season coming in week four, and we touched

376
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: upon it with Eric, is that you think about these

377
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 1: teams schedules. Both teams are not gonna have it easy

378
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 1: here in the first quartet of ballgames. Jets open up

379
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: against the Bills, then they got the forty Niners at home,

380
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: then they're in Indianapolis, and then you have the Broncos. Well,

381
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: the Broncos they host Tennessee, then they're at Pittsburgh by

382
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,360
Speaker 1: Roethlisberger back in the saddle for the Steelers, and then

383
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: finally Tom Brady going out west but they got to

384
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: come to the Jets on a on a short week,

385
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: so they play each other in week four, but it's

386
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: a Thursday night game, so advantage to the Jets in

387
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 1: an advantage always playing at home on a short week,

388
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: and then you think about they're coming across two time zones.

389
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,679
Speaker 1: I think we'll be looking at this game in December

390
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: and we will say that was a game either one

391
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 1: of these teams had to have if want to get

392
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: to the spot they aspired to meeting the Jets. I

393
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: think they gotta win a game like this short week,

394
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: Thursday night, Denver Broncos. Yes they have talent, Yes they

395
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 1: can cause problems, but I think I think this is

396
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: a game on the schedule that you say you gotta

397
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 1: take care of business, otherwise you could get behind the

398
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: eight ball. Would shoot? Would you be surprised, Greens if

399
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,959
Speaker 1: the Broncos came to town all in three, I wouldn't be.

400
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: I don't think I would be either. And I think

401
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: for the Jets when you look at the matchups, and

402
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 1: we talked about it with Eric a little bit, but

403
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: it comes down to a couple of things. For me. One,

404
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 1: if i'm Greg Williams, I'm making Drew Lock throw the

405
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: ball because they Jets have a very good run defense,

406
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: number two in the league last year. And if you

407
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 1: stop Melvin Gordon and Philip Lindsay and you put the

408
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: ball in Drew Lock's hands, well, okay, let's see what

409
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 1: Drew Lock can do on a national stage with his

410
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: new receivers early in the season. And I think that's

411
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:03,199
Speaker 1: key because we talked out maybe the pieces wouldn't have

412
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: found their synergy yet by the time the Jets and

413
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,679
Speaker 1: the Broncos play, So I think that's key. And of

414
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: course we'll see on the flip side, talk about chemistry.

415
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: We'll see how this new Jets offensive line, led by

416
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: Conra Governing at the pivot, how they handle one of

417
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 1: their tougher tests with Bradley Chubb on one side and

418
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: Von Miller on the other side, with Darrell Casey in

419
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: the middle. I think that the offensive line of each

420
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: team will determine the winner of this game. Yeah, I agree,

421
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: offensive line and cornerbacks, right, because for the Broncos to

422
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: get anything gone, I think it's gonna be hard for

423
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay and Melvin Gordon behind that offensive line coming

424
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: to Mentalife Stadium and trying to push the Jets around

425
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: on the ground. Now you'll try to keep them honest,

426
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. But can Lock get the ball

427
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: out of his hands quickly and in space to the

428
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: like subdue Uty and Sutton and Hammler. Whereas on the

429
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: other side of the football, the Jets can they have

430
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: the balance with Levian Bell and also provide the protection

431
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 1: that Sam Donald needs because I think Denzel Mims, Brashad Perryman,

432
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: Jameson Crowder, you add balance in the mix in the

433
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: passing game, of course, the tight ends. I think the

434
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: Jets can do some things through the air against the Broncos.

435
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: And where I would ask you to when we analyze

436
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: this matchup is bottom line. I think the most significant

437
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 1: difference between these two teams is Sam Donald's a better

438
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 1: player that Drew Lock at this point in his career.

439
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: And I don't know what Lock is gonna be and

440
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna be fascinating and see him roll up to

441
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 1: MetLife against Greg Williams and company, because the Jets defensive

442
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: coordinator is gonna throw everything at him. But Donald Lantern

443
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: in year three, Lock entering year two, it's a totally

444
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: different situation and Donald is also in the second year

445
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: in the same offense. I don't know the way you

446
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: see it, that's where I'm boiling his game down to

447
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 1: quarterback advantage, and to me, it's a significant advantage right now, Yeah,

448
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: I agree with that. I don't know a lot about

449
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 1: Drew Lock, of course, because one he plays in Denver

450
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: until he only played a little bit of last season.

451
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 1: So I thought it was very interesting to hear Eric

452
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: talk about his work ethic, just because that was something

453
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: that I didn't know. The only thing I knew about

454
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: Drew Lock is that he is kind of a baby face.

455
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: And that's all I knew about Drew Lock. And I'm

456
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: excited to see what he can bring to the table,

457
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 1: and I'm excited to see what he looks like in

458
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: Week four against the Jets. And you know, we'll see

459
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: what happens. But I agree with you. I think it

460
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 1: boils down when push comes to shove to Sam Donald

461
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: and Drew Lock. And right now, as we recorded this podcast,

462
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: Sam Donald is a better player than Drew Lock in
