<v Speaker 2>Coming here and eat up all our wings and drink

0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 2>all our beer, and then you disappear for another forty

0:01:59.480 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 2>eight weeks. No, it has been a lot of fun.

0:02:01.760 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 2>Final hour here on campus, and we'll try to have

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:06.880
<v Speaker 2>some fun and close this thing down in good fashion.

0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:08.680
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to make sure to mention this, Matt,

0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:10.079
<v Speaker 2>and it is the final hour of the show. So

0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 2>now it's probably a good time you and I will

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:16.359
<v Speaker 2>not have shows Tuesday and Wednesday, right because yep, Matt,

0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Matt has a Matt scot some you know, some kids

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:21.440
<v Speaker 2>and some college stuff going on and some move ins

0:02:21.480 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 2>and all those things. But we will be back Thursday

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>to do kind of a preseason game number two preview show.

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that works out great, And.

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Then obviously no show on Friday because of the game.

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:34.639
<v Speaker 2>We'll have pregame coverage and stuff going on. By that time,

0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:36.680
<v Speaker 2>you can catch Matt and Tom on the pregame show,

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:38.040
<v Speaker 2>the pre pregame show.

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 3>Of course, are we back on video Thursday.

0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 2>That's a good question. I didn't say that because I'm

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 2>not sure.

0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 3>Ye I, I haven't got verification. If we assume we

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:48.280
<v Speaker 3>will after.

0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 2>I think we are on Thursday, But if not, I

0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:53.959
<v Speaker 2>would definitely think following week.

0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:54.640
<v Speaker 3>A regular routine.

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, a week from a week from today, we'll be

0:02:56.520 --> 0:02:59.320
<v Speaker 2>back and do starting routine and video the latest.

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, two hour shows again and you know, normal

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:04.280
<v Speaker 3>format in next studio next week.

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:06.480
<v Speaker 2>We'll be a little wonky too, because we won't have

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:09.959
<v Speaker 2>shows Wednesday Thursday because I'll be traveling Wednesday up the

0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:13.400
<v Speaker 2>Buffalo with the team. Course Thursday, I will be in Buffalo,

0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:15.360
<v Speaker 2>but the then we will have a Friday show to

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 2>recap everything that happens there at the new high Mark Stadium,

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 2>which Matt, you know, the sports dork and me already

0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:25.680

0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:29.200
<v Speaker 2>great dude, has been doing that, Matt. I think this

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:32.160
<v Speaker 2>is his fifteenth season, I want to say, for Dan,

0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:34.079
<v Speaker 2>and he's not that much older than me. He's only

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 2>a few years older than me. He's been doing it

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 2>for a long time. We were both already talking like, hey,

0:03:40.400 --> 0:03:41.880
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna go to the stadium a little bit early

0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 2>on Thursday in Buffalo. I mean, why not. It's a

0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 2>seven o'clock game. What are we gonna do? Hotel the

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 2>rest of the time. And we're like, yeah, well those around,

0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 2>walk around the concourse, see what see take in the

0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:55.160
<v Speaker 2>new stadium and all that stuff. So looking forward to

0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 2>of course preseason, curious what you think of it? Yeah,

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.400
<v Speaker 2>Friday against the Jets and then that quick turn and around.

0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 2>We'll be getting back on a plane on Wednesday for

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 2>the final preseason game and yeah, you know, you know,

0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:06.560
<v Speaker 2>I'll lay it all out for you and what we

0:04:06.560 --> 0:04:08.280
<v Speaker 2>see and what we liked what we didn't like there

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:10.480
<v Speaker 2>with that new stadium up in Buffalo.

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:13.080
<v Speaker 3>So if people don't know, I know, get new listeners

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:16.440
<v Speaker 3>and seasons starting to roll along. Here. I do the

0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 3>pre pregame show with Tom Offerman and that's four hours

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 3>two hours long. It's four hours before kickoff. And then

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:27.479
<v Speaker 3>I do another hit about an hour before kickoff with

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:30.120
<v Speaker 3>with Mike Pursuita and that crew. And then I'll be

0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:33.279
<v Speaker 3>you did last game, and I'll be doing the postgame

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.919
<v Speaker 3>show for the next two preseason games too. So on

0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 3>game day you can find.

0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Us, Yes, you can. I on game days. Of course,

0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 2>most of what I do is behind the scenes in

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:44.719
<v Speaker 2>the booth, but I do host, do host the halftime

0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:48.359
<v Speaker 2>show on the Steelers Audio Network and on DVE, and

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 2>then I host the pre the post game wrap up

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.600
<v Speaker 2>before before I kick it to you and PURSUITA or

0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 2>pursuit Oh. I enjoy doing that.

0:04:58.760 --> 0:04:59.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, just late.

0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:02.840
<v Speaker 2>It's that's the only thing weird. I got to the

0:05:02.880 --> 0:05:05.360
<v Speaker 2>stadium at two o'clock, Matt in the I got to

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:08.400
<v Speaker 2>the stadium at two pm on Thursday, and Pursuda and

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:14.280
<v Speaker 2>I were on air from ten thirty to one am. Yeah,

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:16.360
<v Speaker 2>And so that's just it's just like it. It's by

0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 2>the time, you know, by the time I bet. And

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:21.279
<v Speaker 2>this is very first world problem. I'm not I'm not roofing,

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm not laying concrete, I'm not doing real physical labor.

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:26.880
<v Speaker 2>But by the time you've been yeah, you've been at

0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:29.680
<v Speaker 2>the stadium for nine hours already, and then you have

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 2>to do it too. Yeah, you've already done a halftime

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>show and have already worked the whole game, and then

0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:36.719
<v Speaker 2>you got to get up for a show and it

0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:39.640
<v Speaker 2>goes till one in the morning. But it's always fun

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>with the callers. It's it's always fun. You and I

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:44.359
<v Speaker 2>have talked about this, like it's sometimes it can be

0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 2>rejuvenating when you do a little radio with somebody you

0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:51.960
<v Speaker 2>don't do it with often you do Tom Yeah stuff

0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 2>with Pursuda and some of our other friends. It's just

0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:56.919
<v Speaker 2>a different conversation and a different kind of a different

0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:58.720
<v Speaker 2>change of pace and all and all those fun things.

0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 2>But hey, I'll be there. I'll be there with you

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Friday night, you Pursuda and me and in the in

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:07.400
<v Speaker 2>the broadcast booth deep into the evening, hopefully after the

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Steelers take care of business against the Jets.

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:11.400
<v Speaker 3>I shure mention though Tom and I show is from

0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Stay Je so you can stop buying just say hello.

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 3>That's true.

0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:15.760
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people always ask like where can we

0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 2>see you? Guys say hello, yes you can.

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:19.400
<v Speaker 3>You can stop buy well before.

0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.159
<v Speaker 2>Four hours ahead of kickoff. For every home game, Matt

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:24.719
<v Speaker 2>and Tom will be out there doing their thing for

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.039
<v Speaker 2>two hours, which of course leads up to the pregame

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:30.719
<v Speaker 2>show with Pursuita Labs and Jerry Dulac and then of

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.880
<v Speaker 2>course our broadcast team of Rob King, Max Starks, and

0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Melissa Matthews, although Missy does not do preseason as well

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:40.880
<v Speaker 2>because she does TV side of things.

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.039
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, yeah, it was. It was really weird, but

0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:46.240
<v Speaker 3>Charlie does. Charlie Batch does turns into a TV star

0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:47.800
<v Speaker 3>for preseason. That's why I get the call over.

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Yes, so it was weird for the preseason game. And

0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:52.040
<v Speaker 2>we'll get to the tweets here in a second. It

0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:54.920
<v Speaker 2>was it was weird for the preseason game, Matt this

0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:58.760
<v Speaker 2>past Thursday, because for a few years there we had

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.799
<v Speaker 2>two sideline reporters because remember it was Missy and Max

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.520
<v Speaker 2>on the sideline and then Wolf and Rob or Wolf

0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 2>and Billy hill Grove up in.

0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.760
<v Speaker 3>The Wolf was on the sideline for a while too.

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 2>He was yep, absolutely, And so since we had two

0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:14.200
<v Speaker 2>sideline reporters, even though we'd lose Missy for the three

0:07:14.240 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 2>preseason games, we'd still have Max doing sideline no problem.

0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Last year, which was the first year that Max moved

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.080
<v Speaker 2>up to the booth, you know, in place of Wolf,

0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:29.480
<v Speaker 2>we had Ramon Foster did the sideline. He's now the

0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Titans analyst, the color commentator for the time. He's the

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:37.160
<v Speaker 2>Max Starks of the Tennessee Titans. So great opportunity for

0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 2>well earned. He's good on air, He's he's a lot

0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:42.280
<v Speaker 2>like Max. He's good, he's funny, he knows the game,

0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 2>he's got good delivery and all that stuff. Time and

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, you know, if there was just the

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 2>right person wasn't available, or if they decided to just

0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.560
<v Speaker 2>scrap it. But so for our preseason games, we don't

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:56.040
<v Speaker 2>have a sideline reporter from the three preseason games. So

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 2>that was weird for me. That's like a big part

0:07:57.560 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 2>of my job. I was, I was like, this is

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:02.920
<v Speaker 2>a lot easier, Like this is a lot less stressful, trying.

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:04.480
<v Speaker 3>To make to worry about that aspect.

0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Missy, we need an update on uh player that's

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:10.640
<v Speaker 2>in the tent, and I need you to move five

0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:13.640
<v Speaker 2>yards to the right because that camera from CBS is

0:08:13.680 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 2>interfering with our connection right now.

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow, okay, you deal with that.

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, oh yeah. So it was a little a

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 2>little less stress free. But I will obviously anxiously await

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 2>the return of the great Missy Matthews to the sideline

0:08:24.960 --> 0:08:27.480
<v Speaker 2>when we get things going against the Falcons in September.

0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 3>I will say you, uh, your initial preseason post game

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:37.160
<v Speaker 3>show you got a pretty nice situation. I mean there's

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:40.040
<v Speaker 3>been times where the folks that are pretty lubed up,

0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 3>that have been tailgating since noon and the preseason game

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:46.000
<v Speaker 3>doesn't go so well. The calls are not earal pleasant

0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:52.280
<v Speaker 3>At times, a man will sure everybody you know right.

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 2>Fire you too. You worked for the Cleveland US, you

0:08:56.640 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 2>turn coat. Let's sait some tweets Here at Wesley at

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:05.439
<v Speaker 2>Williamson NFL is where you can get involved. Oh who's

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:10.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna lead us off? Here? Let's see teams. This tweet

0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 2>from smooth Smooth Dave. Interesting one from Smooth Dave. Teams

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 2>that pass on second and short generate an explosive play

0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 2>twenty six percent of the time, verse just two percent

0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 2>of the time when running the football.

0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 3>I do know it's one of the most efficient play

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.479
<v Speaker 3>calls out there, throwing on second and short.

0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Basically, he did some some metrics of calculating coaches and

0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:34.400
<v Speaker 2>where they.

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 3>It's a may I stuff. I saw that one retweeted again.

0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Mike McCarthy ranks Tier one as seventh most aggressive coach

0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.559
<v Speaker 2>overall in those situations in the NFL.

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:45.240
<v Speaker 3>And by aggressive, I think he means calling a pass

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:46.880
<v Speaker 3>there as opposed to paying second and short.

0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:48.439
<v Speaker 2>We're not just gonna try and get the first down.

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:49.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's take a shot.

0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.200
<v Speaker 3>Here, and not to mention the league's going for it

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:54.160
<v Speaker 3>more on fourth down, you have three chances. If it's

0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:57.040
<v Speaker 3>second and two, unless you're like deep in your own end,

0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.760
<v Speaker 3>you probably have three chances to pick it up. So

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:03.560
<v Speaker 3>why not, you know, try for an explosive there and

0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:05.080
<v Speaker 3>it does hit more than the runs.

0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 2>It makes a lot of sense.

0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:09.679
<v Speaker 3>As McCarthy showed him as a preseason game, he was

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 3>pretty agressive with his play calling and fourth ound stuff

0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:13.480
<v Speaker 3>things of that nature too.

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.719
<v Speaker 2>Smooth Dave also adds in the spirit of guys who

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.080
<v Speaker 2>were able to fill more than one role. A Landon

0:10:19.160 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Roberts could be an absolute hammer at full back.

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad you picked that one. I just read that too,

0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:27.199
<v Speaker 3>because he actually did that with the Patriot He did. Yes. Now,

0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:32.760
<v Speaker 3>I think this fullback rule is not just run downhill

0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:34.600
<v Speaker 3>and destroy somebody in front of you. You know, like

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.840
<v Speaker 3>back in the day Tim Lester and Dan Kreider and

0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:40.400
<v Speaker 3>some of those dudes, you weren't throwing the ball, you

0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:42.880
<v Speaker 3>weren't handling the ball, maybe touched it twice a year.

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 3>They didn't do left the right motion very much. They

0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 3>lined up in the eye in front of Jerome and

0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:51.400
<v Speaker 3>smash themone's face as hard as they could. And I

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.840
<v Speaker 3>think Roberts could absolutely do that. Yeah, but I don't

0:10:54.880 --> 0:10:57.000
<v Speaker 3>think this was smooth Dave was implying. I don't think

0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 3>you could save a roster spot and not keep knowing

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.880
<v Speaker 3>Howski or a fullback just because Roberts has done it

0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:05.719
<v Speaker 3>in a very Belichickian manner with the Patriots. The more

0:11:05.720 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 3>he can do, the better. He has played some offense

0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 3>early in his early career, and I guess he could

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:11.920
<v Speaker 3>get you out of the game. But what they want

0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 3>from this fullback is a little bit more check and

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:17.320
<v Speaker 3>running routes and things like that.

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Sudesh says, long time, no Sea boys. He said

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:24.640
<v Speaker 2>I would try him put Adam Autumnwayo to the practice

0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 2>squad and have him be the last one cut. From

0:11:26.760 --> 0:11:29.880
<v Speaker 2>that earlier conversation, Yeah, I just think Robert Spears Jennings

0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.640
<v Speaker 2>is too dynamic to take a chance on losing him

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.360
<v Speaker 2>and leaving him out there. But ove the decisions to

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 2>make when you have a pretty deep roster.

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:41.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, again, these are all good problems to have, and unfortunately,

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:44.400
<v Speaker 3>or to some degree slightly fortunately, there might be one

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 3>or two ir spots or you know, things like that

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.520
<v Speaker 3>that make this a little easier or could make it harder,

0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 3>depending who it is it gets banged up. But yeah,

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:55.079
<v Speaker 3>I think that was the right conclusion. That's why I

0:11:55.120 --> 0:11:57.800
<v Speaker 3>wanted to do that early in the show. Is somebody

0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 3>likes it, you're gonna lose, Yeah, you know, to keep

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 3>that fourth.

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Along those lines, Ian says, I would agree with thinking

0:12:05.040 --> 0:12:07.480
<v Speaker 2>that Autumnwayo would be the last one out. I think

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.000
<v Speaker 2>the way Rogers has been talking up Roman Wilson, he

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.360
<v Speaker 2>won't get cut. Same with Ben Skronick agreed. The more

0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:15.079
<v Speaker 2>you guys talk through this, the more I think they

0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:17.880
<v Speaker 2>cut Mason as a surprising move and just keep the

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:18.840
<v Speaker 2>younger quarterbacks.

0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:21.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. And it's just

0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:22.720
<v Speaker 3>not how the organization.

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.560
<v Speaker 2>It is not how the organization is structured. We all

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:28.480
<v Speaker 2>know that the Pittsburgh Steelers, they believe in having the

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:32.440
<v Speaker 2>best product ready to win games every single Sunday. And

0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.920
<v Speaker 2>so there is still the possibility that over these next

0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:37.640
<v Speaker 2>two weeks, one of Will Howard and Drew Aller could

0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:40.120
<v Speaker 2>make because I don't think it's just a Mike McCarthy decision,

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:45.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, where they could all go collectively. Hey, you

0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 2>know what we feel about as good about Will Howard,

0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:50.400
<v Speaker 2>do we feel about as good as Drew Aller as

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Mason Rudolph And yeah, they don't quite have the veteran savvy, right,

0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:55.440
<v Speaker 2>but we think they could do the job needed if

0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:56.840
<v Speaker 2>they have to come in for a couple of games

0:12:56.840 --> 0:13:00.280
<v Speaker 2>for an injured Aaron Rodgers. But unless that happens.

0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:02.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and that still seems like a lot to ask.

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.320
<v Speaker 2>That seems like a lot to ask that these two

0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:07.240
<v Speaker 2>are just gonna keep ace in the test these next

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:07.920
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks.

0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:12.400
<v Speaker 3>You're the first quarter all right, take it easy against

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:14.720
<v Speaker 3>the Ravens. Do you want Rudolph coming in to seal

0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:16.920
<v Speaker 3>the game or do you want Howard? You know what

0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean? You want Rudolph?

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 2>You do?

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.520
<v Speaker 3>You gotta lead, you know, and you didn't sit on

0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.120
<v Speaker 3>the ball. Be smart, don't screw it up. Now it's

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.240
<v Speaker 3>a different story. If Rogers gets hurt for the year

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:30.600
<v Speaker 3>and we two, then it might just be allur Let's

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.199
<v Speaker 3>see if you see, here's your time. You know who's

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:34.000

<v Speaker 2>in some hours.

0:15:18.520 --> 0:15:20.000
<v Speaker 3>I say they're getting a good work done. I've been

0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 3>kind of paying attention. Yeah, they're out there working hard.

0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Let's roll along with the tweets here, as we've got

0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:28.840
<v Speaker 2>plenty more of these to get to. Jeff says, what

0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.160
<v Speaker 2>percentage chance would you put on Will Howard making it

0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 2>to the practice squad if he were cut? Also, also,

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 2>I would like to see the running Game have a

0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:39.200
<v Speaker 2>better showing on Friday. I hope you guys have a

0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:41.480
<v Speaker 2>safe drive home tonight on Route thirty.

0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:43.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh, thanks for that. And I agree with the Running

0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:45.800
<v Speaker 3>Game that I'm I think it's just a little uncertain

0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:47.200
<v Speaker 3>at this point. I can't say I have a lot

0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:50.640
<v Speaker 3>of faith at this moment, good or bad Howard do

0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 3>the practice squad?

0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:56.000
<v Speaker 2>I think the I think the biggest question would be

0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 2>would he As you laid this out, I think it

0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:58.640
<v Speaker 2>was just yesterday, Yeah, we.

0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:01.920
<v Speaker 3>Were talking about I think that Sharky's I'm sure for

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:02.760
<v Speaker 3>you talked about on that.

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:04.680
<v Speaker 2>I think you mentioned on the air yesterday too, of

0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:07.240
<v Speaker 2>if you're Will Howard and they end up cutting you,

0:16:07.360 --> 0:16:09.600
<v Speaker 2>so you know clearly that Drew Aller is ahead of

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:12.920
<v Speaker 2>you in the pecking order, your fourth, you're fourth. Would

0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:14.520
<v Speaker 2>you really want to come back to Pittsburgh? Would you

0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:16.520
<v Speaker 2>want to go somewhere where you would be third and

0:16:16.520 --> 0:16:18.680
<v Speaker 2>maybe even have an opportunity to be second, to have

0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:20.440
<v Speaker 2>a real chance to compete.

0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:22.840
<v Speaker 3>Like watching that Hall of Fame game. I mean Carolina Panthers.

0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:25.560
<v Speaker 3>Could he go ahead of pickets before long? If he

0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:29.440
<v Speaker 3>signs on their practice squad? I mean, so anyone if

0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:31.960
<v Speaker 3>he gets cut, anyone can claim him, but he has

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.320
<v Speaker 3>to go on their fifty three. I don't know that

0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:36.880
<v Speaker 3>anybody would claim him. Now. Maybe if he has two

0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 3>really good games he's upcoming weeks, that's good enough. There's

0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:42.560
<v Speaker 3>some teams that definitely could use a quarterback of that nature.

0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.080
<v Speaker 3>But then if he's not claimed, he has no If

0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:49.120
<v Speaker 3>he gets claimed, he has no stock of where he goes. Sure,

0:16:49.160 --> 0:16:51.080
<v Speaker 3>you're now a Panther, now you're a bear or whatever.

0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 3>But if he clears waivers, he is a free agent.

0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:59.120
<v Speaker 3>It's not a foregone conclusion that he will re sign

0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:03.360
<v Speaker 3>with the Steelers and Dealers only now most people do

0:17:04.320 --> 0:17:06.880
<v Speaker 3>because when they release you, they tell you we'd love

0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:09.440
<v Speaker 3>to bring you back, and we put a lot of

0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:11.280
<v Speaker 3>work into you. You did a lot of work for us.

0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.320
<v Speaker 3>You know the system. You would fit right in on

0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:18.119
<v Speaker 3>our practice squad. There'd be no adjustment, especially for quarterbacks.

0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.359
<v Speaker 3>I don't have to learn a new system. I know

0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:23.640
<v Speaker 3>exactly where I stand. But you can't tell me there's

0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:26.760
<v Speaker 3>fifteen or twenty teams, or he'd be higher up in

0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:27.520
<v Speaker 3>the chance.

0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:28.119
<v Speaker 2>Higher than fourth.

0:17:28.200 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 3>I'd be higher than forth exactly. And a lot of

0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:34.200
<v Speaker 3>our teams only keep two that you could be third,

0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:37.080
<v Speaker 3>maybe by default, even if you signed somewhere else. So

0:17:38.200 --> 0:17:41.439
<v Speaker 3>if the Steelers cut him, I would advise him, and

0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:43.160
<v Speaker 3>no one's to hear this, and he's not gonna listen

0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:44.840
<v Speaker 3>to me not to resign here.

0:17:46.040 --> 0:17:48.879
<v Speaker 2>You would, I think, be hard pressed to try and

0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:50.400
<v Speaker 2>look in the mirror with a straight face and say

0:17:50.440 --> 0:17:52.880
<v Speaker 2>that this would be the best situation for you. If

0:17:52.880 --> 0:17:54.560
<v Speaker 2>that's all how it ends up playing out.

0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:56.720
<v Speaker 3>Now, you could look at it in a big picture

0:17:56.760 --> 0:17:59.920
<v Speaker 3>perspective and be like, well, Rogers won't be back Rudolph

0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:03.919
<v Speaker 3>free agent after the year. I could come into camp, me,

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:08.159
<v Speaker 3>Drew and somebody else, first round pick maybe, and you

0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:11.240
<v Speaker 3>still would probably third on Tote Poll or Baker Mayfield

0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:15.360
<v Speaker 3>or you know some of them, or something like that,

0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:17.840
<v Speaker 3>or you know, not to mention. I do think it

0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:21.720
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't be all that impossible for the Steelers to resign Rudolph,

0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:24.360
<v Speaker 3>especially if definitely Howard's on the mix, definitely not give

0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:25.880
<v Speaker 3>him a similar contract the one he is now.

0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:29.000
<v Speaker 2>McCarthy, you know, jives with him this year. Yeah and everything.

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Ian says, I want to know from the expert, mister

0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:36.960
<v Speaker 2>Matt Williamson, who which player across the league under the

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:41.080
<v Speaker 2>radar has the biggest potential for a breakout season. Ian says, personally,

0:18:41.160 --> 0:18:43.879
<v Speaker 2>I really like Deshaun Stribbling in San Francisco.

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:52.679
<v Speaker 3>Oh coincidentally, we did a podcast today about rookie wide receivers,

0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:56.440
<v Speaker 3>you know, our six pack we talked about, including Stribbling,

0:18:56.840 --> 0:19:00.280
<v Speaker 3>including Bernard. That a lot of these like mid round

0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:04.720
<v Speaker 3>the top guys. Tyson's hurt again, which is terrible, thanks

0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:08.120
<v Speaker 3>for him. Yeah, Titans had a miserable showing against the Niners,

0:19:08.200 --> 0:19:11.720
<v Speaker 3>and Tate didn't look particularly good, neither did Ward. But

0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:14.240
<v Speaker 3>a lot of these other receivers the day two guys,

0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:18.320
<v Speaker 3>the Striblings, the Bernards. A good one that we really

0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:21.520
<v Speaker 3>stressed was Hurst with the box who I loved remember

0:19:21.560 --> 0:19:24.280
<v Speaker 3>out of Georgia State. Yeah, yeah, I loved him. Both

0:19:24.320 --> 0:19:27.840
<v Speaker 3>the Browns guys. You know, so a lot of these receivers,

0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:33.520
<v Speaker 3>including stribbling. I think are really acclimating. Well, I could

0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:36.399
<v Speaker 3>probably go on and on about you know, breakout candidates.

0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:38.520
<v Speaker 3>Rather people just threw names at me.

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:44.199
<v Speaker 2>Let me throw two at you, all right, Luthor Chicago Bears,

0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:46.040
<v Speaker 2>he could go insane. DJ Moore is gone.

0:19:46.160 --> 0:19:46.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's into year two now and doesn't have hopefully

0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:52.359
<v Speaker 2>the injury issues that he had last year. Yes, I

0:19:52.400 --> 0:19:54.800
<v Speaker 2>think Luthor Burden the third is primed for a big year.

0:19:55.119 --> 0:19:58.520
<v Speaker 3>He's currently dealing with an injury. But I also think

0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:01.639
<v Speaker 3>his teems like he's always Yeah, that's true too, but

0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:04.360
<v Speaker 3>I think like his teammate Adunza is slept on though.

0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:07.560
<v Speaker 3>So if you watch their tape early before a Doonza

0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:11.359
<v Speaker 3>hurt his foot, the passing game went through him, and

0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:16.040
<v Speaker 3>then after his foot injury, Burden got more involved. Lovelin

0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:19.600
<v Speaker 3>got a lot more involved. But I think Burden's talent

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.240
<v Speaker 3>he could be a star sooner than later.

0:20:22.880 --> 0:20:25.199
<v Speaker 2>The other one, Matt, maybe this is cheating because he

0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:27.679
<v Speaker 2>was just a year ago a top ten pick. But

0:20:27.720 --> 0:20:28.840
<v Speaker 2>what about Ashton Genty.

0:20:29.920 --> 0:20:31.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean, the situation has to be so much better

0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:33.440
<v Speaker 3>for him. He had to do everything on his own.

0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.960
<v Speaker 2>I feel like if you're Kubiak. You know, job number

0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:37.800
<v Speaker 2>one is we're gonna draft for an into Mendozo. We're

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:40.359
<v Speaker 2>gonna develop him into a franchise quarterback. But I think

0:20:40.440 --> 0:20:42.560
<v Speaker 2>job number two might be we gotta get Ashton Genty

0:20:42.560 --> 0:20:45.040
<v Speaker 2>in that run game going, because that helps job number.

0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:48.159
<v Speaker 3>One big time, and he's a really talented player. The

0:20:48.200 --> 0:20:52.040
<v Speaker 3>O Lions added Linderbaum and some other pieces, and Mendoza

0:20:52.080 --> 0:20:54.080
<v Speaker 3>probably won't be on the field week one, but I mean,

0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:56.520
<v Speaker 3>can we get a good running game going for when

0:20:56.560 --> 0:20:58.800
<v Speaker 3>he watched out on Yeah exactly.

0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:02.920
<v Speaker 2>John one asks, with training camp wrapping up in La Trobe,

0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:04.760
<v Speaker 2>will you guys go back to two hours a day?

0:21:04.800 --> 0:21:06.720
<v Speaker 2>We will? Yeah, maybe we will, John, And we will

0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:10.159
<v Speaker 2>also for all of you who lament every time that

0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:11.880
<v Speaker 2>we are no longer on YouTube, we will be back

0:21:11.920 --> 0:21:16.680
<v Speaker 2>on YouTube, if not Thursday next week and real soon

0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:17.159
<v Speaker 2>here for you.

0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:19.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah maybe ye. Things we backed to normal soon.

0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Matt says, hey, fellas, now that Drew Aller and Will

0:21:23.560 --> 0:21:26.639
<v Speaker 2>Howard are future Hall of famers having observed training camp

0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:30.119
<v Speaker 2>other than quarterback, what position would be filled best in

0:21:30.320 --> 0:21:33.440
<v Speaker 2>the first round of the draft next year. I love

0:21:33.480 --> 0:21:36.600
<v Speaker 2>Warren and Dowdell. I think they should be good fits.

0:21:37.520 --> 0:21:40.600
<v Speaker 2>But wouldn't having a Bjon Robinson type running back in

0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:41.919
<v Speaker 2>this offense beat best?

0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:47.200
<v Speaker 3>Yes, but I don't think Omar cons E as an

0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:49.200
<v Speaker 3>economics salary.

0:21:48.720 --> 0:21:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Cap dude, first round running back.

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:53.000
<v Speaker 3>I can't imagine first round running backs are going to

0:21:53.040 --> 0:21:55.640
<v Speaker 3>be on his priority list. I mean, he drafts tackles

0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:57.840
<v Speaker 3>that you can't get on the open market, and I

0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:02.200
<v Speaker 3>fully condone that sometimes Beijon's just too good to pass up.

0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:04.320
<v Speaker 3>I get that too, But it's funny. I actually thought

0:22:04.359 --> 0:22:06.720
<v Speaker 3>about this, you know how, I do weird things, like

0:22:06.760 --> 0:22:09.000
<v Speaker 3>when I'm dozing offer and I'm like, who else could

0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:12.359
<v Speaker 3>be the first round pick? I don't think wide receiver's crazy.

0:22:12.440 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't either.

0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:16.359
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if you're gonna play three receivers heavy and

0:22:16.680 --> 0:22:21.240
<v Speaker 3>Pittman and Metcalf are both expensive and twenty nine, you

0:22:21.320 --> 0:22:24.560
<v Speaker 3>might want the next number one or compliment to Bernard,

0:22:24.720 --> 0:22:28.160
<v Speaker 3>or one of those two isn't back. I don't know.

0:22:28.400 --> 0:22:30.560
<v Speaker 3>I'd have to really dig into free agents, but I

0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:34.280
<v Speaker 3>think it's highly unlikely that Jalen Ramsey's back his age

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:34.720
<v Speaker 3>and his cap.

0:22:35.119 --> 0:22:37.320
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna say, if we break this down real quick, Yeah,

0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Steelers first round pick in twenty twenty seven, number one

0:22:40.880 --> 0:22:41.960
<v Speaker 2>on the board odds has to.

0:22:41.920 --> 0:22:43.720
<v Speaker 3>Be quarterbacks still at this point I think so.

0:22:44.080 --> 0:22:45.720
<v Speaker 2>But then after that, I think you could start to

0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:49.080
<v Speaker 2>argue wide receiver, wouldn't say running back, wouldn't say tight

0:22:49.200 --> 0:22:50.560
<v Speaker 2>end of this sea. And I don't think at this

0:22:50.600 --> 0:22:53.040
<v Speaker 2>point I think we'd say not offensive line line. It's

0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:53.840
<v Speaker 2>so much there.

0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:55.560
<v Speaker 3>It might be one of the few years that I

0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:58.480
<v Speaker 3>can done not even taking a O lineman at all.

0:22:58.720 --> 0:23:01.600
<v Speaker 2>So first round pick could certainly be a quarterback, would

0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:03.640
<v Speaker 2>certainly be a wide receiver. Defensive side of the ball.

0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:05.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's going to be an edge rusher. No,

0:23:06.320 --> 0:23:08.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's going to be a defensive lineman.

0:23:08.359 --> 0:23:10.000
<v Speaker 2>It could be, but I it's.

0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 3>Supposed to be a very good D line class. Maybe

0:23:12.680 --> 0:23:14.359
<v Speaker 3>Cam says I had a good year, I'm retiring, and

0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:15.360
<v Speaker 3>then you change your mind.

0:23:15.880 --> 0:23:17.040
<v Speaker 2>Or maybe you look at it and you go, it's

0:23:17.080 --> 0:23:18.639
<v Speaker 2>a really good D line class. We'll get our guy

0:23:18.680 --> 0:23:19.359
<v Speaker 2>in the second round.

0:23:19.520 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 3>Maybe. I think off the ball linebackers are very.

0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Hang off the ball. Linebacker and corner I would say,

0:23:25.320 --> 0:23:26.520
<v Speaker 2>are also possibilities.

0:23:26.800 --> 0:23:32.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I assume Porter Dean Everett will all

0:23:32.200 --> 0:23:35.879
<v Speaker 3>be under contract, and I don't think Grahams will be

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:37.720
<v Speaker 3>back just because I think he's like a thirty million

0:23:37.760 --> 0:23:39.679
<v Speaker 3>dollar capit and he's be getting older at that point.

0:23:39.920 --> 0:23:43.399
<v Speaker 3>So maybe you want the big slot type. But do

0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:48.080
<v Speaker 3>we know that Peyton Wilson's a success, Patrick Queen's a

0:23:48.080 --> 0:23:51.240
<v Speaker 3>free agent? Who else is in the wings to be

0:23:51.320 --> 0:23:55.080
<v Speaker 3>a star there? I also don't know that Omar would

0:23:55.119 --> 0:23:57.080
<v Speaker 3>spend a first round pick on a safety or a

0:23:57.080 --> 0:24:01.600
<v Speaker 3>linebacker either, because there aren't positions that are, you know,

0:24:01.880 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 3>super scarce. But I could see linebacker being a glaring hole.

0:24:08.320 --> 0:24:10.600
<v Speaker 2>It's already interesting. Look at us. Yeah, we haven't even gone.

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:11.680
<v Speaker 3>You got to think negatively.

0:24:12.200 --> 0:24:15.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, as you mentioned, scouting and projecting and a lot

0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:19.639
<v Speaker 2>of that stuff is negative by nature. Yes, yes, r

0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:22.800
<v Speaker 2>J says, if the Steelers keep four to four quarterbacks,

0:24:22.840 --> 0:24:24.800
<v Speaker 2>which position group, do you guys think, like, well, this

0:24:24.880 --> 0:24:25.520
<v Speaker 2>is what I poached.

0:24:25.560 --> 0:24:28.480
<v Speaker 3>This is where we started show. Yeah, I read that

0:24:28.520 --> 0:24:29.960
<v Speaker 3>and I just kept thinking, I'm like, I'm not sure

0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:31.359
<v Speaker 3>and I don't want to deal with it. In two

0:24:31.440 --> 0:24:32.840
<v Speaker 3>minutes at the end of the show.

0:24:32.800 --> 0:24:35.280
<v Speaker 2>And RJ and everyone else who missed it, that's where

0:24:35.280 --> 0:24:37.120
<v Speaker 2>we started today. At the top of the first hour

0:24:37.160 --> 0:24:39.600
<v Speaker 2>if you want the full breakdown. But we basically Matt

0:24:39.640 --> 0:24:41.840
<v Speaker 2>came up with defensive line or wide.

0:24:41.600 --> 0:24:45.399
<v Speaker 3>Receiver, something on defense. Really at all likelihood were the

0:24:45.440 --> 0:24:47.439
<v Speaker 3>only twenty four defensive players.

0:24:47.640 --> 0:24:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Don't we don't want to cut Roger Jones and he

0:24:49.359 --> 0:24:51.920
<v Speaker 2>would really be the only option off on the offensive line.

0:24:51.960 --> 0:24:55.040
<v Speaker 3>Do we only keep four linebackers? Yes, So Brunner was

0:24:55.040 --> 0:24:56.959
<v Speaker 3>not in the mix. He was not, I mean he didn't.

0:24:57.280 --> 0:24:58.879
<v Speaker 3>He was kind of a quick cut for us, and

0:24:59.119 --> 0:25:00.680
<v Speaker 3>he actually is a pretty good has to make the team.

0:25:01.880 --> 0:25:03.120
<v Speaker 2>It's not an easy exercise.

0:25:03.200 --> 0:25:04.000
<v Speaker 3>No, it really isn't.

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:05.800
<v Speaker 2>A lot of times we think it is, but it's

0:25:05.800 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 2>never it's.

0:25:06.359 --> 0:25:08.920
<v Speaker 3>A could be d line, it could be linebacker, it

0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:11.760
<v Speaker 3>could be safety. Yes, all those were a little light

0:25:11.840 --> 0:25:12.160
<v Speaker 3>for us.

0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I those were all kind of Matt and I

0:25:16.119 --> 0:25:18.960
<v Speaker 2>were kind of looking at each other like, you.

0:25:18.880 --> 0:25:21.520
<v Speaker 3>Know, yeah, you get a little uncomfortable, get a little uncomfortable.

0:25:21.600 --> 0:25:24.360
<v Speaker 2>There's not as many chairs left on the Titanic as you.

0:25:24.359 --> 0:25:26.240
<v Speaker 3>Think, and we need two or three injuries all of

0:25:26.240 --> 0:25:28.520
<v Speaker 3>a sudden. Then you're calling somebody off off the couch

0:25:28.560 --> 0:25:31.560
<v Speaker 3>to play safety for you or linebacker, you know, exactly right,

0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:33.080
<v Speaker 3>exactly right, and that's scary.

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:39.680
<v Speaker 2>Let's see here. Oh. RJ also tweeted, this was a

0:25:39.720 --> 0:25:43.959
<v Speaker 2>funny one. RJ also tweeted, uh, excluding the four major

0:25:44.000 --> 0:25:47.479
<v Speaker 2>team sports, who's the greatest athlete of all time? I

0:25:47.480 --> 0:25:48.719
<v Speaker 2>wanted to get your quick thought of that one.

0:25:48.880 --> 0:25:50.439
<v Speaker 3>The first one game of mine was Uhammed Ali.

0:25:50.720 --> 0:25:52.480
<v Speaker 2>It's a great one. My first one that came to

0:25:52.520 --> 0:25:57.000
<v Speaker 2>mind was Michael Phelps. All he's a fantastic, fantastic one Tiger.

0:25:57.040 --> 0:26:02.920
<v Speaker 3>W uh huh, throw Arnie Palmer back.

0:26:03.400 --> 0:26:06.639
<v Speaker 2>People like Simone Biles and Katie Ladeci probably deserve to

0:26:06.640 --> 0:26:07.240
<v Speaker 2>get mentioned.

0:26:07.560 --> 0:26:08.560
<v Speaker 3>Is there a tennis player?

0:26:08.720 --> 0:26:11.119
<v Speaker 2>I was just gobody. I was just gonna say, like

0:26:11.200 --> 0:26:17.399
<v Speaker 2>Nadal Venus Federer, I mean like Venus Serena. Yeah, I

0:26:17.440 --> 0:26:21.840
<v Speaker 2>think Venus conversations Usain Bolt should probably be mentioned in

0:26:21.880 --> 0:26:22.560
<v Speaker 2>this conversation.

0:26:23.080 --> 0:26:25.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, all he's hard to beat. All these very hard

0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:28.800
<v Speaker 3>to beat the iconic nature of it all, and yeah

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:30.879
<v Speaker 3>he still holds up.

0:26:30.960 --> 0:26:33.119
<v Speaker 2>It's a really good one, really good one. A J

0:26:33.400 --> 0:26:37.600
<v Speaker 2>says it's time to play either neither or both number

0:26:37.600 --> 0:26:42.280
<v Speaker 2>one Steelers for the twenty sixth season. Rudolph and Howard,

0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Sorry sorry sorry, start a game for the Steelers in

0:26:46.040 --> 0:26:50.200
<v Speaker 2>the twenty six Rudolph Howard, I would say.

0:26:50.560 --> 0:26:55.240
<v Speaker 3>Either either yes not both or neither, and Rogers could

0:26:55.240 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 3>stay healthy.

0:26:55.720 --> 0:26:57.920
<v Speaker 2>And again Aaron Rodgers has missed one game the last

0:26:57.920 --> 0:26:58.520
<v Speaker 2>two seasons.

0:26:58.720 --> 0:27:00.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but still it's just I mean, if this was

0:27:00.600 --> 0:27:03.000
<v Speaker 3>the Bills, I would say the backup has a better

0:27:03.040 --> 0:27:05.760
<v Speaker 3>than fifty percent Foreverya.

0:27:04.920 --> 0:27:11.919
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely make the playoffs. Bengals Ravens either neither or both.

0:27:12.119 --> 0:27:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Either either one of them will. Yeah, I'm not gonna

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:16.760
<v Speaker 2>go with both, but I'm not gonna go with both.

0:27:17.280 --> 0:27:19.720
<v Speaker 3>AFC is pretty crowded, it sure is, Yeah.

0:27:19.640 --> 0:27:22.600
<v Speaker 2>Sure is. We'll do as we get through this last

0:27:22.640 --> 0:27:25.960
<v Speaker 2>preseason game against Buffalo here, you know, in another two weeks.

0:27:26.240 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Then when we have that kind of gap there of

0:27:28.000 --> 0:27:31.000
<v Speaker 2>those two weeks before we get to the opener against

0:27:31.000 --> 0:27:32.760
<v Speaker 2>the Falcons, Matt and I will do plenty of that

0:27:32.960 --> 0:27:35.560
<v Speaker 2>division picks and playoff picks and all that.

0:27:35.520 --> 0:27:37.040
<v Speaker 3>Stuff, and we will have to do some of that

0:27:37.119 --> 0:27:37.679
<v Speaker 3>kind of stuff.

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Number three from AJ has nine plus sacks, Herbig and

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Watt either neither or both.

0:27:45.480 --> 0:27:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Either, because I mean I think high Smith might have

0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:52.239
<v Speaker 3>nine plus two. I mean, they have three guys with

0:27:52.560 --> 0:27:53.600
<v Speaker 3>double digit sacks.

0:27:54.200 --> 0:27:58.040
<v Speaker 2>It's a good point, just heart. I mean either could

0:27:58.040 --> 0:28:01.480
<v Speaker 2>get hurt either either the right play. Yeah, I want

0:28:01.480 --> 0:28:03.960
<v Speaker 2>to say this is the smart money. Either's the smart money.

0:28:04.520 --> 0:28:05.119
<v Speaker 2>Number four.

0:28:05.320 --> 0:28:06.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean, how many snaps is heard be going to

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:09.840
<v Speaker 3>play the entire year if nobody gets hurt? Five hundred, right,

0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:11.800
<v Speaker 3>and there'll there'll be some pass rush opportunities.

0:28:11.880 --> 0:28:13.640
<v Speaker 2>But I like this exercise by age.

0:28:13.760 --> 0:28:14.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this is good.

0:28:14.400 --> 0:28:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Number four has more than ninety five targets. DK Metcalf

0:28:18.200 --> 0:28:19.240
<v Speaker 2>and Michael Pittman.

0:28:18.920 --> 0:28:24.399
<v Speaker 3>Junr either, but it definitely could be both. That's not

0:28:24.440 --> 0:28:27.600
<v Speaker 3>a crazy number to get to. But there are pretty

0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:29.680
<v Speaker 3>many miles to feed, and you have to think.

0:28:30.280 --> 0:28:32.720
<v Speaker 2>I think either are they both to play? Right? What

0:28:32.760 --> 0:28:34.520
<v Speaker 2>if one misses two because of an injury?

0:28:34.600 --> 0:28:38.600
<v Speaker 3>Right? Or get suspended? No, he wouldn't do that again.

0:28:38.880 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 2>I think either And five scores three plus touchdowns this

0:28:43.040 --> 0:28:47.560
<v Speaker 2>season Friarmouth and Washington. That better be both. Better be both.

0:28:47.640 --> 0:28:51.160
<v Speaker 3>But if Rogers only throws for my only is not

0:28:51.200 --> 0:28:55.680
<v Speaker 3>the right word. Twenty eight touchdowns six plus go into

0:28:55.720 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 3>those two maybe maybe four to I'm gonna go aa,

0:29:00.000 --> 0:29:00.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm gona go both.

0:29:00.560 --> 0:29:02.280
<v Speaker 2>I thin I'm gonna go both of that one. I

0:29:02.360 --> 0:29:03.440
<v Speaker 2>like that exercise then.

0:29:03.400 --> 0:29:05.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but they all were not easy ones either. They

0:29:05.560 --> 0:29:09.160
<v Speaker 3>were no brainers. Jeff even come on on that. That

0:29:09.200 --> 0:29:09.440
<v Speaker 3>was good.

0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 2>That was good. I like those kind of questions. I

0:29:11.200 --> 0:29:13.320
<v Speaker 2>like this one from Jeff to for the Steelers to

0:29:13.360 --> 0:29:15.800
<v Speaker 2>win their seventh Super Bowl, list seven things that have

0:29:15.880 --> 0:29:18.400
<v Speaker 2>to happen for them to win it seven and or

0:29:18.520 --> 0:29:21.040
<v Speaker 2>seven things that can't happen for them to win it.

0:29:21.160 --> 0:29:22.800
<v Speaker 2>Health obviously being excluded.

0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:26.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay, something has to happen. I would say, is top

0:29:26.200 --> 0:29:28.280
<v Speaker 3>twelve quarterback play?

0:29:28.360 --> 0:29:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I would say you have to also have a

0:29:30.480 --> 0:29:35.600
<v Speaker 2>top seven offensive line. Yeah, I don't have top five.

0:29:35.640 --> 0:29:36.960
<v Speaker 2>That might be a little rich, but you got to

0:29:36.960 --> 0:29:38.160
<v Speaker 2>have a top seven or eight.

0:29:38.240 --> 0:29:39.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna say you're gonna have to have a top

0:29:39.560 --> 0:29:43.960
<v Speaker 3>seven defense too. Absolutely, I think those things are not

0:29:44.200 --> 0:29:45.440
<v Speaker 3>crazy to ask for. Either.

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:48.440
<v Speaker 2>You need to be towards the top of the league

0:29:48.480 --> 0:29:50.480
<v Speaker 2>in explosive play differential.

0:29:50.640 --> 0:29:52.239
<v Speaker 3>Because I don't know that they will be.

0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:55.720
<v Speaker 2>Remember four of the five teams that to Championship weekend

0:29:55.760 --> 0:30:00.400
<v Speaker 2>were in the top five there. Yeah, I think this

0:30:00.520 --> 0:30:02.920
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarter defense, I would just say things like that,

0:30:03.000 --> 0:30:05.480
<v Speaker 2>time of possession has to be a plus, not a negative.

0:30:05.560 --> 0:30:08.000
<v Speaker 3>He can't be twenty eighth again, that's for sure.

0:30:08.280 --> 0:30:11.680
<v Speaker 2>You need, I think, to be Mike McCarthy's Packers tenure,

0:30:11.920 --> 0:30:14.520
<v Speaker 2>where they were not one of the most penalized teams

0:30:14.560 --> 0:30:17.040
<v Speaker 2>in the league, as opposed to some of his Cowboys

0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 2>teams that finished first and second and fourth and most penalties.

0:30:20.920 --> 0:30:22.840
<v Speaker 3>How about like what we talked about last summer, I

0:30:22.840 --> 0:30:26.080
<v Speaker 3>mean back to like being like top three in sacks.

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Top three in sacks.

0:30:27.320 --> 0:30:30.719
<v Speaker 3>I mean sack ratio is not quite as important as explosive,

0:30:30.760 --> 0:30:34.120
<v Speaker 3>but it's third on the list behind turnovers and explosive.

0:30:35.200 --> 0:30:37.080
<v Speaker 3>I think they could lead the league in sack ratio.

0:30:37.680 --> 0:30:40.080
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Rogers doesn't take sacks. The protection is better,

0:30:40.200 --> 0:30:43.560
<v Speaker 3>ball comes out quick. They got a really good pass rush.

0:30:43.920 --> 0:30:46.120
<v Speaker 3>We'll do a Brandon Thorne exercise at some point that'll

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:46.600
<v Speaker 3>back that.

0:30:46.800 --> 0:30:50.080
<v Speaker 2>We will. We'll do that Thursday. Okay, Yeah, I like

0:30:50.160 --> 0:30:52.800
<v Speaker 2>all of those yards per carry I think needs to

0:30:52.840 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 2>be at least league average. No, I would say at

0:30:54.760 --> 0:31:02.000
<v Speaker 2>least be in the sixteen to twenty range. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:31:02.040 --> 0:31:03.920
<v Speaker 2>And then I guess the things that can't happen would

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:05.400
<v Speaker 2>be all the inverses of those things.

0:31:05.480 --> 0:31:08.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're the same conversation we just said, can't be

0:31:08.520 --> 0:31:10.080
<v Speaker 3>at three to seven or you know.

0:31:10.360 --> 0:31:12.239
<v Speaker 2>I also would maybe something we should add for that,

0:31:12.280 --> 0:31:14.760
<v Speaker 2>Matt is you need someone to be a viable third

0:31:15.000 --> 0:31:18.400
<v Speaker 2>wide receiver. Yeah, or even just pass catcher, even if

0:31:18.400 --> 0:31:21.440
<v Speaker 2>it's Pat Freyermouth having that breakout season. But you need

0:31:21.760 --> 0:31:24.880
<v Speaker 2>other than dk And and Pittman. You need a viable,

0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:26.520
<v Speaker 2>productive third target.

0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:28.280
<v Speaker 3>I may even take a step further and say the

0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:32.400
<v Speaker 3>number two, which I think will happen, needs to abuse

0:31:32.400 --> 0:31:35.080
<v Speaker 3>single coverage. You know, like the Austins of the world

0:31:35.160 --> 0:31:36.400
<v Speaker 3>didn't abuse single coverage.

0:31:36.440 --> 0:31:39.920
<v Speaker 2>They did not know, they absolutely absolutely did not.

0:31:40.080 --> 0:31:42.720
<v Speaker 3>You gotta have a balanced receiving a corps. They can't

0:31:42.720 --> 0:31:43.560
<v Speaker 3>just be metcalf In, the.

0:31:43.560 --> 0:31:52.200
<v Speaker 2>Pips, the Pips. This guy's fuddy, this guy's funny. Uh.

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Sudesh says for best non major four sport athletes, Ali, Serena, Phelps,

0:31:59.040 --> 0:32:02.400
<v Speaker 2>and Pele, I guess does count because you know it

0:32:02.440 --> 0:32:05.240
<v Speaker 2>wasn't It wasn't football, basketball, baseball or hockey.

0:32:05.600 --> 0:32:07.040
<v Speaker 3>He's the best soccer player ever.

0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 2>I think listen, and I think I think if you

0:32:10.640 --> 0:32:12.600
<v Speaker 2>say I think if you say anybody other than MESSI

0:32:12.680 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 2>now I think you're kidding yourself considering the eras. But

0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Pele's in the conversation, Maradonna's in the conversation, and those

0:32:19.400 --> 0:32:23.360
<v Speaker 2>guys technically, but they did play team sports, which again

0:32:23.800 --> 0:32:26.520
<v Speaker 2>for the parameters of before you know, the four major sports,

0:32:26.520 --> 0:32:27.040
<v Speaker 2>I get it.

0:32:26.960 --> 0:32:28.280
<v Speaker 3>I get it they weren't one of them.

0:32:28.280 --> 0:32:30.360
<v Speaker 2>But but that is a good people on the.

0:32:30.360 --> 0:32:32.320
<v Speaker 3>Planet would say they're one of the four major sports.

0:32:33.480 --> 0:32:35.800
<v Speaker 3>Outside of America.

0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Let's see here, Aaron says, I look at Aler, and

0:32:42.560 --> 0:32:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Howard is having way higher ceilings than Mason Rudolph. I

0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:49.160
<v Speaker 2>think Mason is an insurance plan. I'm comfortable with either

0:32:49.240 --> 0:32:52.760
<v Speaker 2>taking over, even though Mason has the experience. With McCarthy,

0:32:53.080 --> 0:32:55.120
<v Speaker 2>I think I'd give these young guys an edge. Now

0:32:55.120 --> 0:32:56.320
<v Speaker 2>the McCarthy, I don't know that.

0:32:56.320 --> 0:32:59.200
<v Speaker 3>I give Howard a way higher ceiling than Rudolph. I

0:32:59.240 --> 0:33:01.440
<v Speaker 3>don't a higher stealing the rudo.

0:33:01.480 --> 0:33:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Aler, I think so, yeah, because the arm talent that's

0:33:04.040 --> 0:33:07.560
<v Speaker 2>why he's not going anywhere, is undeniable. But you know what,

0:33:07.600 --> 0:33:09.960
<v Speaker 2>the McCarthy angle there is an interesting one. And in

0:33:10.080 --> 0:33:11.320
<v Speaker 2>last tweet here.

0:33:11.680 --> 0:33:13.840
<v Speaker 3>And I do think McCarthy would put a Howard or

0:33:13.880 --> 0:33:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Aller in a good situation if they got thrust into

0:33:16.000 --> 0:33:16.320
<v Speaker 3>a game.

0:33:16.560 --> 0:33:19.320
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, and uh and Sudsh kind of says that too.

0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:23.640
<v Speaker 2>He said, you know the fact that all three Steelers

0:33:23.800 --> 0:33:27.440
<v Speaker 2>starters looked up to snuff is a testament to Mike

0:33:27.520 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 2>McCarthy loving this new regime. So yeah, if you were

0:33:30.720 --> 0:33:32.880
<v Speaker 2>going to move on from Mason Rudolph and take more

0:33:32.880 --> 0:33:35.440
<v Speaker 2>of a risk with your backup quarterbacks, you have the

0:33:35.520 --> 0:33:39.240
<v Speaker 2>head coach feel feel confident is going to have them

0:33:39.600 --> 0:33:40.640
<v Speaker 2>as ready to go, and.

0:33:40.560 --> 0:33:42.280
<v Speaker 3>You'd hope there's the running game in the line and

0:33:42.440 --> 0:33:45.600
<v Speaker 3>defense in place to not ask as much as you

0:33:45.640 --> 0:33:48.600
<v Speaker 3>would have a Rogers or whatnot. Exactly right, that's a

0:33:48.600 --> 0:33:50.960
<v Speaker 3>good angle. I mean, boy, we could have that conversation forever.

0:33:51.360 --> 0:33:52.840
<v Speaker 3>We sure should he keep three or four?

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Sure could, and I'm sure we will continue to until

0:33:55.160 --> 0:33:57.360
<v Speaker 2>we until we find out the answer. And obviously we're

0:33:57.360 --> 0:33:59.960

<v Speaker 2>And you know what, Matt, we have I think just

0:35:28.920 --> 0:35:31.080
<v Speaker 2>enough tweets left here to get us through. We're doing

0:35:31.080 --> 0:35:36.480
<v Speaker 2>a final Twitter hour here with our Bonus Hour Steelers Burner,

0:35:36.680 --> 0:35:39.759
<v Speaker 2>our buddy from York, Pennsylvania that we met a few

0:35:39.760 --> 0:35:43.120
<v Speaker 2>weeks ago at camp. Back to the Steelers' fourth quarter defense,

0:35:43.480 --> 0:35:47.400
<v Speaker 2>could Mike Tomlin and Tarilosophe's philosophy of bend but don't break,

0:35:47.640 --> 0:35:50.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, allow yards but not points have been a

0:35:50.960 --> 0:35:53.839
<v Speaker 2>major contributor to those struggles, just bending too much and

0:35:53.880 --> 0:35:57.160
<v Speaker 2>finally breaking. And when looking at Patrick Graham, he seems

0:35:57.160 --> 0:35:59.160
<v Speaker 2>like he has a much different mindset towards that.

0:36:00.040 --> 0:36:02.799
<v Speaker 3>I think Graham is a much different mindset towards it.

0:36:04.280 --> 0:36:06.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that I would phrase it that way

0:36:06.600 --> 0:36:10.560
<v Speaker 3>in terms of the last staff, because I mean, were

0:36:11.000 --> 0:36:12.720
<v Speaker 3>were they a bend but don't break defense?

0:36:12.719 --> 0:36:14.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but they did give up a lot

0:36:14.480 --> 0:36:17.120
<v Speaker 2>of yards compared to points. It felt like it felt

0:36:17.160 --> 0:36:18.560
<v Speaker 2>like they were always in the top half of the

0:36:18.600 --> 0:36:20.920
<v Speaker 2>league of points per game, which is great, but they

0:36:20.920 --> 0:36:24.000
<v Speaker 2>were always towards the bottom third of yards per game.

0:36:25.120 --> 0:36:30.800
<v Speaker 3>Maybe I'm still attributing fatigue age getting schemed up differently

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:35.120
<v Speaker 3>as the game goes on and frankly not adjustin great. Yeah,

0:36:35.160 --> 0:36:37.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that. It's just the style of playing defense.

0:36:37.680 --> 0:36:40.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean, yeah, yeah, I'm kind of defense on that one.

0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:45.799
<v Speaker 2>Annie says, can you remember over the years biggest surprises,

0:36:45.840 --> 0:36:48.879
<v Speaker 2>good or bad from players based on what they did

0:36:48.960 --> 0:36:51.680
<v Speaker 2>in training camp verse what they did in season.

0:36:52.480 --> 0:36:53.279
<v Speaker 3>It's probably a million.

0:36:53.400 --> 0:36:55.480
<v Speaker 2>There's a million, you know. It's funny, and these are the.

0:36:55.440 --> 0:36:57.480
<v Speaker 3>Type of like Dale was sitting here for that one.

0:36:57.560 --> 0:36:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so here's what I got for you. You remember

0:36:59.480 --> 0:37:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Ola d Yeah, dude, I remember the first week of pads.

0:37:04.239 --> 0:37:08.720
<v Speaker 2>He was murdering people in backs on backers. Yeah, murdering people.

0:37:09.320 --> 0:37:11.520
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, Okay, this guy, here comes the

0:37:11.520 --> 0:37:15.320
<v Speaker 2>next debo, you know, here comes Harold is pass rusher

0:37:15.360 --> 0:37:19.719
<v Speaker 2>for the Steelers. He was murdering people in backs on backers. Drill.

0:37:19.840 --> 0:37:22.080
<v Speaker 3>That's a good one. Probably a ton like that.

0:37:22.120 --> 0:37:25.600
<v Speaker 2>And and I thought had an amazing camp, a really

0:37:25.640 --> 0:37:28.399
<v Speaker 2>good preseason, and then just it just it just never

0:37:28.440 --> 0:37:30.480
<v Speaker 2>happened for him. It just never happened for him. I

0:37:30.560 --> 0:37:32.560
<v Speaker 2>know there's a ton like that. But for whatever reason,

0:37:32.840 --> 0:37:35.040
<v Speaker 2>he was the first name that I remembered. And maybe

0:37:35.040 --> 0:37:37.160
<v Speaker 2>that's because I think that was my first training camp,

0:37:37.320 --> 0:37:39.560
<v Speaker 2>so you know, I could kind of remember it. Yeah,

0:37:39.719 --> 0:37:41.959
<v Speaker 2>every day I'm down there at practice, and I would

0:37:41.960 --> 0:37:43.960
<v Speaker 2>always be kind of hanging around, like a puppy like

0:37:44.000 --> 0:37:46.759
<v Speaker 2>behind Touching Wolf and just watch what they watch, you know,

0:37:46.880 --> 0:37:49.799
<v Speaker 2>see what they're seeing. And every day it was like

0:37:50.280 --> 0:37:53.200
<v Speaker 2>this ninety two guy is destroying people. Last year, he's

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:56.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a superstar, and he was never really able

0:37:56.160 --> 0:37:57.800
<v Speaker 2>to carve out that career in Pittsburgh.

0:37:57.880 --> 0:37:59.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to say I cashed it in for

0:37:59.239 --> 0:38:01.359
<v Speaker 3>our final segment, but I am thinking a lot about

0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:02.919
<v Speaker 3>the burger I'm gonna get on the way home because

0:38:02.920 --> 0:38:05.560
<v Speaker 3>I'm quite hungry and ready, be ready to get on

0:38:05.560 --> 0:38:07.960
<v Speaker 3>the road and all those good things. But I'm having

0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:11.160
<v Speaker 3>a hard time coming up with names. But I'm definitely

0:38:13.320 --> 0:38:16.160
<v Speaker 3>if I could rewind. I bet there's two every camp

0:38:16.160 --> 0:38:18.239
<v Speaker 3>we're like, oh, we're sitting here at this point like, well,

0:38:18.239 --> 0:38:21.080
<v Speaker 3>that guy has a teammate, he's a demon, He's destroying everybody,

0:38:21.080 --> 0:38:22.879
<v Speaker 3>and then you never hear from again. You know, it's

0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:24.440
<v Speaker 3>just a nature of the game. You know, who's a

0:38:24.480 --> 0:38:25.799
<v Speaker 3>three man roster too, you.

0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:31.160
<v Speaker 2>Know, absolutely, And we we churned through, we churned through,

0:38:31.320 --> 0:38:34.279
<v Speaker 2>uh you know, just almost one hundred guys out here

0:38:34.320 --> 0:38:37.120
<v Speaker 2>every single year exactly, uh, Matt.

0:38:37.160 --> 0:38:38.520
<v Speaker 3>But there's been a lot of times you go to

0:38:38.520 --> 0:38:40.319
<v Speaker 3>the watering holes at night and like that guy, did

0:38:40.320 --> 0:38:41.239
<v Speaker 3>you see what he did today?

0:38:41.320 --> 0:38:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:43.319
<v Speaker 3>Like, yeah, he came out of nowhere right right right,

0:38:43.360 --> 0:38:44.600
<v Speaker 3>and then you don't never hear from again.

0:38:44.680 --> 0:38:46.160
<v Speaker 2>But you know what, though, it does work the other way,

0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:46.640
<v Speaker 2>and I know.

0:38:46.560 --> 0:38:48.760
<v Speaker 3>We've Harrison and Warren and Jalen.

0:38:48.800 --> 0:38:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Warren was one where it was like by the fourth

0:38:51.440 --> 0:38:54.640
<v Speaker 2>or third, fourth, fifth practice, everyone was like this Warren

0:38:54.680 --> 0:38:57.400
<v Speaker 2>guy looks really good man, like undrafted, he's gonna and

0:38:57.400 --> 0:38:58.880
<v Speaker 2>then it went to he's gonna make the team, and

0:38:58.880 --> 0:39:00.319
<v Speaker 2>then all of a sudden, he's I mean, he's been

0:39:00.360 --> 0:39:02.160
<v Speaker 2>a very good running back.

0:39:02.400 --> 0:39:04.799
<v Speaker 3>Now they're better at it than we are, I mean,

0:39:04.840 --> 0:39:07.160
<v Speaker 3>the coaching staff, coach McCarthy, et cetera. But that was

0:39:07.160 --> 0:39:09.759
<v Speaker 3>one of my concerns with how they structure practice. I

0:39:09.760 --> 0:39:12.880
<v Speaker 3>think it's harder for those guys to stand out. Sure,

0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:14.680
<v Speaker 3>Like I don't know if Warren makes the team. If

0:39:14.680 --> 0:39:16.560
<v Speaker 3>you do, if you don't have backs on backers and

0:39:16.600 --> 0:39:18.240
<v Speaker 3>you're not allowed to break tackles, you know what I mean.

0:39:18.320 --> 0:39:20.520
<v Speaker 2>Maybe he has a couple of big preseason games.

0:39:20.360 --> 0:39:23.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and maybe latches on the practice squad and eventually

0:39:23.200 --> 0:39:25.120
<v Speaker 3>makes you know, his way there, But it'd be a

0:39:25.120 --> 0:39:26.360
<v Speaker 3>tougher road for him.

0:39:26.800 --> 0:39:30.160
<v Speaker 2>Smooth Dave says, what Steelers players could we trade for

0:39:30.200 --> 0:39:37.200
<v Speaker 2>a first round pick right now? Fewer than you think, Fraser, Yeah,

0:39:37.239 --> 0:39:41.719
<v Speaker 2>you think for a first.

0:39:39.760 --> 0:39:43.399
<v Speaker 3>That age, it's true maybe, I mean the next team

0:39:43.400 --> 0:39:44.560
<v Speaker 3>would have to pay him though.

0:39:44.400 --> 0:39:46.479
<v Speaker 2>They would, you know they would, but you'd be getting

0:39:46.480 --> 0:39:47.880
<v Speaker 2>your guy for ten years.

0:39:48.160 --> 0:39:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Someone might give you a first for Fulton who already maybe.

0:39:52.040 --> 0:39:53.720
<v Speaker 3>I think that's it on offense.

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:56.200
<v Speaker 2>That's it on offense, Yeah, Joey Porter Jr.

0:39:58.640 --> 0:40:00.400
<v Speaker 3>Because I canna give him thirty million?

0:40:00.440 --> 0:40:01.200
<v Speaker 2>Two you do?

0:40:01.520 --> 0:40:03.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, but a first lot of teams, a lot

0:40:04.000 --> 0:40:06.239
<v Speaker 3>of tea top of the market contracts usually don't work

0:40:06.239 --> 0:40:07.160
<v Speaker 3>out well for the buyer.

0:40:07.920 --> 0:40:09.480
<v Speaker 2>That's a good point.

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:11.120
<v Speaker 3>I don't think get one for.

0:40:11.120 --> 0:40:14.080
<v Speaker 2>What not not after last year, and I think high

0:40:14.080 --> 0:40:16.279
<v Speaker 2>Smith you could definitely get a second, but I don't

0:40:16.280 --> 0:40:18.080
<v Speaker 2>know about a first. Probably the same for her Big.

0:40:18.480 --> 0:40:19.960
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a lot of Steelers you could trade

0:40:20.000 --> 0:40:22.759
<v Speaker 2>for second round picks pretty easily. Yeah, like a quick

0:40:22.760 --> 0:40:23.920
<v Speaker 2>phone call, second round pick.

0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:30.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we're interested, Mike Tomlin, I mean there's definitely players.

0:40:30.200 --> 0:40:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Now he's spitting.

0:40:31.320 --> 0:40:33.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure he's thinking along the lines of can I

0:40:33.760 --> 0:40:36.319
<v Speaker 3>get to nine to get to the next Josh Allen

0:40:36.440 --> 0:40:39.160
<v Speaker 3>or whatever. I think there's players you could include with

0:40:39.239 --> 0:40:41.560
<v Speaker 3>your first round pick and next year's first, you know

0:40:41.600 --> 0:40:44.040
<v Speaker 3>what I mean. Like, let's say you win a playoff game,

0:40:44.040 --> 0:40:45.560
<v Speaker 3>but you don't have a quarterback for next year. You

0:40:45.600 --> 0:40:46.960
<v Speaker 3>have no, you don't have enough faith in all Er

0:40:47.000 --> 0:40:50.319
<v Speaker 3>and you're picking twenty five. I'll give you twenty five

0:40:50.400 --> 0:40:53.080
<v Speaker 3>next year's first in high Smith to get to eight,

0:40:54.360 --> 0:40:56.279
<v Speaker 3>you know what I mean? Yeah, But in terms of

0:40:56.360 --> 0:40:59.759
<v Speaker 3>trade him straight up for a first, this team's not

0:41:00.320 --> 0:41:03.400
<v Speaker 3>great in that regard. But the league has fewer than

0:41:03.440 --> 0:41:05.560
<v Speaker 3>you think too. I mean, there's Josh Allen's you'd give

0:41:05.640 --> 0:41:09.319
<v Speaker 3>up ten first round picks for, and there's you know,

0:41:10.239 --> 0:41:11.560
<v Speaker 3>there's not one hundred players.

0:41:11.320 --> 0:41:13.560
<v Speaker 2>I bet, And for the vast majority of TJ's career

0:41:13.560 --> 0:41:16.040
<v Speaker 2>he would have been an easy yes. Oh yeah, yeah converse. Yeah,

0:41:16.040 --> 0:41:18.960
<v Speaker 2>for sure, I shouldn't say vast majority, but for a

0:41:18.960 --> 0:41:20.799
<v Speaker 2>long stretch of Cam Hayward's career he would have been

0:41:20.800 --> 0:41:21.319
<v Speaker 2>an easy yes.

0:41:21.360 --> 0:41:23.439
<v Speaker 3>In this car, I mean, Metcalf for a second, wasn't

0:41:23.440 --> 0:41:25.640
<v Speaker 3>crazy And two years ago, a year before that, he

0:41:25.640 --> 0:41:27.960
<v Speaker 3>probably would have got it first, but not at this

0:41:28.000 --> 0:41:30.319
<v Speaker 3>stage of his career. I bet there's you know, I'm

0:41:30.360 --> 0:41:32.400
<v Speaker 3>sitting here thinking, like Eve, if you went through the

0:41:32.440 --> 0:41:35.279
<v Speaker 3>top one hundred that just came out in NFL dot

0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:37.600
<v Speaker 3>com or whatever, not, all those guys would get a

0:41:37.600 --> 0:41:40.080
<v Speaker 3>first definitely. Not no, definitely, I mean like Travis Kelcey's

0:41:40.120 --> 0:41:42.520
<v Speaker 3>on that list. Yeah, no chance. I mean yeah, Jaylen

0:41:42.600 --> 0:41:45.080
<v Speaker 3>Ramsey's on that list right right right, there's Steelers on it.

0:41:45.239 --> 0:41:48.600
<v Speaker 3>Cam Heyward. Yeah, last question of camp, you were in

0:41:48.640 --> 0:41:49.319
<v Speaker 3>the league than you think?

0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:53.239
<v Speaker 2>Yes, definitely. Last there's almost more guys that you could

0:41:53.239 --> 0:41:56.240
<v Speaker 2>trade for multiple first round picks than just a first

0:41:56.280 --> 0:41:58.200
<v Speaker 2>round pick because the quarterbacks.

0:41:58.840 --> 0:42:02.640
<v Speaker 3>Guy right, yes, Parsons and Garrett, and we saw those guys.

0:42:02.400 --> 0:42:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Trade for some of the people like pas Certain I

0:42:04.200 --> 0:42:06.439
<v Speaker 2>mean yeah, yeast partner just went for two.

0:42:06.560 --> 0:42:08.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there's Corner's worth more than sauce.

0:42:08.560 --> 0:42:11.840
<v Speaker 2>Jeff gets the last tweet of camp. He says what foods?

0:42:11.960 --> 0:42:14.279
<v Speaker 2>What food will you miss most from the Steelers cafeteria

0:42:14.560 --> 0:42:17.120
<v Speaker 2>and which media member ate the most wings at Sharky's.

0:42:17.440 --> 0:42:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Alan Saunders is the answer to that second?

0:42:19.440 --> 0:42:22.120
<v Speaker 3>Really every night, I never really eat a sharkis that much?

0:42:22.200 --> 0:42:24.719
<v Speaker 2>We don't unless we're doing It's the nights we're doing shows.

0:42:24.560 --> 0:42:26.319
<v Speaker 3>Right, because I either eat my night show or the

0:42:26.480 --> 0:42:27.799
<v Speaker 3>because we.

0:42:27.760 --> 0:42:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Don't we go over to the cafeteria for the free

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:31.960
<v Speaker 2>food before before we you know, go back to the

0:42:31.960 --> 0:42:33.280
<v Speaker 2>hotel and then hit Sharky's.

0:42:33.640 --> 0:42:36.440
<v Speaker 3>Rarely do I walk in Sharky's hungry exactly right.

0:42:36.480 --> 0:42:39.239
<v Speaker 2>And if I do six o'clock doing a show, because

0:42:39.280 --> 0:42:41.680
<v Speaker 2>normally we're not going there till a little bit later. Uh,

0:42:41.840 --> 0:42:44.360
<v Speaker 2>I feel like Alan and maybe Chris Hallick one of

0:42:44.400 --> 0:42:46.719
<v Speaker 2>those two every night. Those guys eat there every night

0:42:46.719 --> 0:42:49.680
<v Speaker 2>at Sharky's. Those guys, those guys eat yeah, yep, and

0:42:49.719 --> 0:42:52.160
<v Speaker 2>they always get wings always.

0:42:51.880 --> 0:42:53.920
<v Speaker 3>Which look tremendous. I'm just never hungry at the time.

0:42:54.200 --> 0:42:56.560
<v Speaker 3>It almost convinces me to get them even though I'm

0:42:56.560 --> 0:42:57.040
<v Speaker 3>not hungry.

0:42:57.440 --> 0:42:59.239
<v Speaker 2>I get them whenever we're doing the Show's there though,

0:42:59.280 --> 0:43:02.640
<v Speaker 2>because I'm I'm hungry and they're comped by management that

0:43:02.760 --> 0:43:03.880
<v Speaker 2>we love. A big shout out to.

0:43:03.920 --> 0:43:05.600
<v Speaker 3>John, which one are you gonna miss the most? Though?

0:43:07.120 --> 0:43:11.440
<v Speaker 2>At the Steelers cafeteria you camp in general, I mean

0:43:11.440 --> 0:43:15.160
<v Speaker 2>the wings always, I don't care if it's Sharky's. I

0:43:15.239 --> 0:43:18.600
<v Speaker 2>love their Cajun wings, their seasoned wings, their buffalo wings,

0:43:18.680 --> 0:43:23.440
<v Speaker 2>their southern white wings. I also had dinos though sweet

0:43:23.440 --> 0:43:26.680
<v Speaker 2>heat for days. I will I will miss those big time.

0:43:27.160 --> 0:43:30.360
<v Speaker 3>There's a lot of caffeteriro mess just all the options,

0:43:30.440 --> 0:43:32.440
<v Speaker 3>all the options. There's a sneaky one for me though.

0:43:32.560 --> 0:43:35.799
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure you've noticed in the little fridge behind you.

0:43:35.880 --> 0:43:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I know these little yogurt parfets with and

0:43:39.120 --> 0:43:42.040
<v Speaker 3>you pour the granola on top and they have berries

0:43:42.080 --> 0:43:45.200
<v Speaker 3>in there. They've just been so convenient in life savers

0:43:45.200 --> 0:43:46.839
<v Speaker 3>for me when I come over to practice and I'm

0:43:46.920 --> 0:43:49.000
<v Speaker 3>kind of hungry, I didn't eat breakfast or I ate

0:43:49.040 --> 0:43:52.720
<v Speaker 3>something small. They were just always there and they're fresh,

0:43:52.760 --> 0:43:54.040
<v Speaker 3>and they did the trick.

0:43:55.040 --> 0:43:58.040
<v Speaker 2>These breakfast croissant sandwiches that they would have up from

0:43:58.080 --> 0:43:59.120
<v Speaker 2>the zoo. We're pretty good too.

0:43:59.160 --> 0:44:01.560
<v Speaker 3>The wings grew on me too. That are in the hallway.

0:44:01.600 --> 0:44:03.520
<v Speaker 3>That yeah, that's a season.

0:44:03.520 --> 0:44:05.360
<v Speaker 2>One thing they got here in La Trobe is good food.

0:44:05.400 --> 0:44:08.000
<v Speaker 2>That is that is for sure. That will do it

0:44:08.000 --> 0:44:10.439
<v Speaker 2>for Matt and I from this training camp. A couple

0:44:10.480 --> 0:44:11.600
<v Speaker 2>of days off here and we'll be.
