And it's nice to talk 6 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: to you, Kenny. What's up. 7 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 2: Great to be with you, JP. 8 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,600 Speaker 1: Here we are. NFL season is back. I'm curious how 9 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: difficult is it to manage all these sports at one time. 10 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 2: Well, September it's only football, So get started this Sunday 11 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 2: with the Jaguars and the Colts. Worked about eight baseball 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 2: games over the summer, and then the overlap does start 13 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: in October when the NHL season gets underway, and then 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 2: I work some basketball as well. But September is football 15 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: only and great to be chatting with you as we 16 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: get set for the game this weekend. Along with my 17 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: partners Jonathan Vill, Mishan and Speake. We'll be heading to 18 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 2: Indy on Friday as we tape this on Wednesday. It 19 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: is year thirty, which is crazy with the NFL on Fox. 20 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: Hard to believe. The other day was the anniversary of 21 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 2: the first ever Fox NFL regular season games back on 22 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 2: nine to four, ninety four, and I had the LA 23 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 2: Rams and the Arizona Cardinals before the Rams moved to 24 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: Saint Louis. It was their last year in LA prior 25 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 2: to the move. And that seems like yesterday and here 26 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: we are, thirty seasons later. Couldn't be more excited to 27 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 2: get started. And you know, similar with what you do. 28 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure the preparation for a Sunday game starts on 29 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: a Monday, usually watching prior games, doing a lot of reading, 30 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 2: putting together charts and spotting boards, and pouring through statistics 31 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: and press releases. And then Friday, we'll head over to 32 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: the Colts practice in Indie and sit down with four 33 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: or five players and coaches afterwards, and then we'll meet 34 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: with the Jaguars Saturday when they get into Indianapolis. So 35 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: it's here, it's week one and couldn't be more excited. 36 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: Albert with us. 37 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: What's the greatest moment game memory of the first thirty 38 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: years for you of the NFL on Fox. It's hard 39 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: to pick one. 40 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 2: I'm sure, well, it is hard to pick one. There 41 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 2: have been a lot of memorable games. Back in January, 42 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: twenty twelve, a playoff game Saints and forty nine Ers, 43 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: four touchdowns in the last four minutes, Alex Smith and 44 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 2: Drew Brees back and forth. That's certainly up there. More 45 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 2: so than full games. There are probably memorable moments from 46 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: those games. Just last year, our crew had the Raiders 47 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 2: Patriots game, the crazy ending with the laterals and Chandler 48 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 2: Jones with the interception taking it back for a game 49 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: winning touchdown. But then when I think back and I 50 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 2: chronicle a lot of this in my new book, which 51 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: is coming out next month, they actually list about fifteen 52 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 2: of the big moments that I remember from football games. 53 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 2: I work everything from Terrell Owens stomping on the Cowboys 54 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 2: star after scoring a touchdown with the forty nine Ers 55 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: is back in the early two thousands. I had the 56 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,679 Speaker 2: Michael Vick forty six yard touchdown running overtime early in 57 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 2: his career in Minnesota, zigzagging his way up the field 58 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 2: and then right through the tunnel. The Victor Cruz ninety 59 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: nine yard touchdown reception from Eli Manning which propelled the 60 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,839 Speaker 2: Giants into the playoffs in twenty eleven and they wound 61 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 2: up winning the Super Bowl. Some crazy memories. You're probably 62 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: too young for this, but in ninety five, right before halftime, 63 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 2: Bill Cower shoving a polaroid photo into the shirt pocket 64 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: of referee Gordon McCarter. They were called for twelve men 65 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: on the field prior to a field goal. They really 66 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 2: only had eleven. So I worked that game, the first 67 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 2: ever punter kicker, touchdown pass and reception Miami Dolphins a 68 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: couple of years ago on a fake field goal, and 69 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: so many more. Those are the ones that stand out. 70 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: But like I said, it's a lot of moments, more 71 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 2: so than full games. 72 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: The new book out a mic for all seasons. Kenny 73 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: Albert is with us. I don't know what Bill Kawer 74 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: would have done today with a tablet, do you like 75 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: shove the tablet to the shirt pocket. That's tough, right, 76 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: That's a real tough one, Kenny. What was your last 77 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: Jaguars game? 78 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: I actually looked it up this week. It was the 79 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 2: opener in twenty eighteen against the Giants up at MetLife Stadium. Okay, 80 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 2: not many players remaining from that one? 81 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: Well, I mean that was that twenty eighteen season. Was 82 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 1: coming off the playoff run for the Jaguars, right, and 83 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: had a similar feel to what this Jaguars team's going 84 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: through off the playoff run last year. A lot of 85 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: anticipation going into that eighteen season, and hey, right now, 86 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: the Jaguars turned this thing around quick. From those years, right, 87 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: they had the back to back number one overall picks, 88 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: They've had coaching changes all of a sudden, they rally 89 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: in December and win the division last year. Now it's 90 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: it's amazing how fast you can turn around an organization 91 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: in two three years time, and they on it here 92 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville at least, it feels like, what do you think? 93 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and it's sort of reminiscent. I remember doing a 94 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: couple of games early on around ninety five, ninety six, 95 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 2: ninety seven when the Jaguars first came into the league, 96 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 2: and I specifically remember a game I'm pretty sure it 97 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: was ninety five, meeting with Tom Coughlin for the first time, 98 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: and then the next year they have the great success 99 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: in the playoffs, as did Carolina, the two expansion teams 100 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 2: from ninety five. So I've always been a big fan 101 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: of Doug Peterson did many Eagles games during his tenure there, 102 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 2: and he's done a terrific job in Jacksonville, watching the 103 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 2: progression of Trevor Lawrence and the entire team. Haven't worked 104 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: a game, like I said, since twenty eighteen involving the Jaguars, 105 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 2: but watched the playoff games last year in preparing for 106 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 2: this game. Very excited to sit down with Doug and 107 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: Trevor and a couple of the others on Saturday and 108 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 2: then call the game on Sunday. 109 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: What is it about Doug Peterson in his style that 110 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: relates that wins over a meeting room, a locker room. 111 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, at least in the production meetings 112 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 2: with the television crews. He's just a regular guy, you know. 113 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: He walks in and some of these coaches, you know, 114 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 2: I remember back in my early years, my first game 115 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 2: I mentioned earlier, it was Buddy Ryan and Chuck Knox. 116 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: Now I was really young at the time and they 117 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 2: were in their late fifties early sixties, but they were 118 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: such intimidating presences and you kind of had that same feeling, 119 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: you know, early on with Tom Kaughlin, Bill Parcel, some 120 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: of those old school coaches. But Doug just makes you 121 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 2: feel comfortable, makes you feel at home, you know. I 122 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 2: remember calling his games when he was a backup quarterback 123 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 2: with the Eagles. Well he was the starter actually until 124 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: Donovan McNab took over. I had a number of their 125 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: games back in the ninety nine season when when Andy 126 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: Reid was in his first year as head coach and 127 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 2: Doug started I think the first six or seven games 128 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 2: and then they made the move to Donovan. So I 129 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 2: do remember him as a player as well. But he's 130 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: just a gentleman. I mean, he's a guy who was 131 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: coaching high school football not too long before he won 132 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl as a head coach. So he's done 133 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: a great job, and I know, you know, he's looking 134 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 2: to become the first to win a Super Bowl as 135 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 2: a head coach of two different franchises. So the Jaguars 136 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: are certainly on their way and you know, should certainly 137 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 2: be a contender for a playoff position this year. 138 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: Once again, Kitty Albert NFL on Fox with US Jaguars 139 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: Colts coming up. Well, you know what helps the head 140 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: coach has great success as a franchise quarterback, and they 141 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: seem to have one here in Jacksonville and Trevor Lawrence 142 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: and we all know what happened his rookie season, not 143 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: an ideal start for him, but a reset last year 144 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: and about halfway through he really started to figure it 145 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: out and calm him down and not throw these awful 146 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: interceptions he was early in the season. But that growth 147 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: can continue. Now everybody's back. This is this is a 148 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: rare moment that everybody almost is back from an offense 149 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: and a defense for that matter, from last season before 150 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: all the contract things happened in the next year or two, 151 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: and that can help the quarterback continue to grow. But 152 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: what can that growth do. Yeah, for the football team, 153 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: but for the organization as a whole. When you have 154 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: a franchise guy. 155 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: You're right jp that continuity having just about every starter 156 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 2: back is huge. You know, we've seen teams that have 157 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: had success in the past just get decimated in free agency, 158 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 2: lose players along the way. But when you talk about 159 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence, you know, I think back to so many 160 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 2: quarterbacks who didn't necessarily have that success right away or 161 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 2: even play much the first year. You know, Drew Brees 162 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 2: sat his first year out in San Diego. Aaron Rodgers 163 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 2: sat for three years in Green Bay behind Brett Farr 164 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: before he got an opportunity. And you think back to 165 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: Troy Aikman and Eli Manning and Peyton Manning their first years. 166 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 2: You know, the stats weren't that great. It was a 167 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 2: learning experience. So it does take time. And when you 168 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: look at what Trevor did last year during the second 169 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: half of the season, you could tell just the confidences building, 170 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 2: you know, working with with Doug p You're sitting the 171 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 2: coaching staff, you know for the first time, and just 172 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 2: growing each each week. And it's certainly plateaued up during 173 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 2: the latter stages of the regular season last year into 174 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 2: the postseason, and the Jaguars certainly hope that it carries 175 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: over to the start of this season. 176 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: Henny, how do you defend this Jaguars offense? His weapons everywhere. 177 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: They've got a running game if they want it, they 178 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: can throw it around. They've got a tie end or two. 179 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: They've added Calvin Ridley. Overall across the board, there might 180 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: be better star players a skilled positions around the league, but 181 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: pound for pound, they can hang with almost anybody. 182 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 2: No, you're right, and defensive coordinators are going to have 183 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 2: some tough choices as far as who to a double team. 184 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 2: For example, I saw Calvin Ridley play so many games 185 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 2: in Atlanta and he's obviously a top talent in the NFL. 186 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: So I can't wait to watch them on Sunday. And 187 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 2: you know, the Cults are a team that headed in 188 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 2: the other direction during the second half of last season, 189 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 2: losing their life seven games. They made the coaching change 190 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 2: from Frank Bright to Jeff Saturday. Now they bring in 191 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: Shane Steichen from the Eagles. So again, Cults are gonna 192 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 2: have some decisions to make defensively and it should be 193 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 2: a lot of fun to watch. 194 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: Final thought with you in speaking of the Colts, Yeah, 195 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: a lot of changes. Their new head coach as you mentioned, 196 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: but new quarterback as well, running back issues. There's a 197 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: lot going on in Indianapolis. But just the unknown of 198 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: Week one can be a challenge. What is that going 199 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: to look like with Anthony Richardson, What are the Colts 200 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: actually roll out there on Sunday? In terms of a scheme, 201 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: you don't really know. So Week one has a lot 202 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: of surprises most years. 203 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure the Jaguars and I've read it, they've 204 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 2: been watching a lot of Eagles tape, which is where 205 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 2: the head coach, Shane Stikeen, as we just talked about, 206 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 2: came from excited to watch Anthony Richardson to sit down 207 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 2: with him on Friday and hear his thoughts. I watched 208 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: their last preseason game against Philadelphia, and you could just 209 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: see the size, the strain, the athleticism from all accounts, 210 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: he's so smart both on and off the field. Only 211 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 2: thirteen starts in college, so not a lot of experience. 212 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 2: But at the running back position, you know, you mentioned 213 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 2: some flux with Jonathan Taylor missing at least the first 214 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 2: four games. They do have some young wide receivers and 215 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 2: some weapons around Richardson, so we'll see what happens. But 216 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 2: you're right week one. You know, we get these assignments 217 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 2: months in advance for week one, and you spend so 218 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: much time focusing on week one, and then the game's 219 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 2: over and all of a sudden, you have another one 220 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 2: in seven days. And I'm sure it's the same way 221 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: for the players and coaches. But everybody's record is even. 222 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 2: Everybody's zero and zero at this point, you know, at 223 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 2: least until the Chiefs and Lions kick off on Thursday night, 224 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: and a lot of optimism. I'm sure in all thirty 225 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 2: two NFL cities. 226 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: It's the thirtieth year of the NFL on Fox. The 227 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: only game broadcasters that's been there for all thirty is 228 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: Kenny Albert and it's great to visit with you. Appreciate 229 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: the time. 230 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 2: Kenny, and Howie Long and Terry Bradshaw in the studio 231 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: as well. They'll be out in now, but great to 232 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: chat with you. 233 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: JP. 234 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: Enjoy the game this weekend and hopefully we'll see you 235 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 2: there along the way.
