Speaker 1: the sticks in Bucky. We had a wild college football

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: weekend which we need to hit at the end of

10
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 1: the show today we'll go third mine. We thought about

11
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 1: those big upsets that took place. We need to get

12
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 1: into some of these NFL games we saw from the weekend.

13
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 1: It was an awesome game. College was fantastic in the

14
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,319
Speaker 1: NFL delivered this week finally hit in the stride when

15
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: it comes to football games. I think everyone is settled

16
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: in in the National Football League. Guys are very comfortable

17
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: in what they're doing. I think we're finally seeing the

18
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: kind of play that we typically expect in the National

19
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: Football League. Week ten was outstanding from beginning to end.

20
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: Even the Monday night game was a pretty good game

21
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 1: until the end. So I was pretty excited. And Uh.

22
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: One of the things too, we always talk about scouting

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: the money down is what down, Buck, third down? Money

24
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: down got to get off the field if you're on defense,

25
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 1: and you've gotta find a way to make plays because

26
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: you have to win on third down. So I've got

27
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: our our researcher, Bill Smith, our researcher extraordinaire, has got

28
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: me a bunch of stats for who's who's performing on

29
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: third down, who's making things happen. So well, we'll get

30
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: into that a little bit later as well, but I

31
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: think we need to start with the news of the day, Buck,

32
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,839
Speaker 1: And it's not that app State was upset by Troy Um.

33
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,119
Speaker 1: It is that Jared Goff has been named the starting

34
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: quarterback of I guess we say our We're in Los Angeles,

35
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: our l A Ramps. Surprised by the timing of this.

36
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: You knew it was coming, it had been building. Surprised

37
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: that they're doing it coming off of win. But this

38
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: offense for the Rams touchdown and they haven't been exciting

39
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: at all, and so you you wondered how long they

40
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: would be able to wait, especially with all of the

41
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: young quarterbacks that are playing in playing pretty well you

42
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: can't have the number one overall picks it traded up

43
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: for At some point you want to show him off

44
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: and maybe he's settled in, maybe he's made tremendous strides

45
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: in progress from the time we saw him in the preseason.

46
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: I still think it's working against him because the common

47
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: denominator that we've seen for those those young quarterbacks that

48
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: are thriving, Dak Prescott, Carson wentz Uh even some of

49
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: the other guys. Offensive line play needs to be strong,

50
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: Derek cars play how it's exploded. Have to be able

51
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: to run the ball when you want to run it,

52
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: and you have to have playmakers around. When I look

53
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 1: at the Rams, yeah, with the offensive line play, yeah,

54
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: in terms of Ti Gurley hasn't been able to run

55
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: the ball the way that we would like. And then

56
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: the playmakers, I mean Kenny Brett, Tabon Austin any Brett

57
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: had a forearm catch last week. I've seen one handed catch.

58
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: He caught the ball this forearm. I mean, that's it.

59
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: So I hope they aren't setting them up to fail.

60
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: But I also understand the pressure that they feel from

61
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: the outside. People want to see it. In the more

62
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: pick play, well, we always talk about we use our

63
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: trucks and trailers analogy, whether you're not you're a quarterback

64
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: that pulls other people along with you, or you're somebody

65
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: that gets pulled by your teammates. You spend the number

66
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: one pick on a guy and you trade up and

67
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: get him, you expect him to be a truck and

68
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: you expect him to make everybody around him better and

69
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: cover up some of these issues. That's the challenge. That's

70
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,839
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on the young quarterback. You're right though,

71
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: you I mean when you're taking in the top five

72
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: were you're talking and taking number one, You're supposed to

73
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: be a franchise player, a guy that can kind of

74
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 1: handle the weight that comes along with lifting a bad

75
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: franchise and so a lot of pressure on Jared Golf.

76
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: Hopefully he's able to slow it down. I like the

77
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: talent that I saw when he was at Kale. I

78
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: like the skill set. I liked all those things. Are

79
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: worried about the transition from his offense to the style

80
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: of offense that they may play with the rams as

81
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: much pressures on him. I think there's a lot of

82
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: pressure on the coaching staff because everyone has looked around

83
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: the league and seeing how people have adapted to allow

84
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: these young quarterbacks to thrive. If the Rams don't show

85
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: the versatility to kind of take some of the things

86
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: that he did at Kale and put him in a

87
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: situation where he flourishes, a lot of pressure goes back

88
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: on the coaching staff before they even get to Jared Golf. Yeah,

89
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 1: what how do you How do they use him and

90
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: what do you think they do? You talked about using

91
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: some of the things that they did at Cow in

92
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: your opinion, what's the best way to kind of get

93
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: him go? First? Start first, give me the script first.

94
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: First thing for me, I'm gonna trying to empty it

95
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: out a little bit. I want to empty out empty backfield,

96
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: have all my receivers out so he can identify if

97
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: their blitzing or if they're in coverage. Spread. I want

98
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: to spread them out like he was able to do

99
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: at cal. I want to have some easy throws from him,

100
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: some motions, some stacks, some shifts where I can kind

101
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: of get them going, a couple of layups. I think

102
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: it's important that he completes for out of the first five,

103
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,919
Speaker 1: six out of first eight to kind of get a rhythm.

104
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: See the ball going to basket, and if they do that,

105
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: then I think he can have success. You also gotta

106
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 1: run the ball. I don't want to like if I

107
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: have a pitch count. I want to keep him at

108
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: twenty four or fewer past attempts. If I can, can,

109
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: I give you my prediction of the first ten I'll

110
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: say the first ten throws. Okay, of the first ten throws,

111
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: I will predict that half of them, five of them

112
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: bubble screens, unnals, bubbles, or just pure screen. Just just

113
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: get the ball to running back in the screen. I

114
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: bet you five of his first ten throws are at

115
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: or behind the line of scrimmage. I wouldn't doubt that.

116
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: I would also like to see them do some things

117
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: because Todd Gurley hasn't being able to have success. Maybe

118
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 1: having Jerry Goff and more shotgun run game, maybe that'll

119
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: clear out the box a little bit and give him

120
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: some running room. Maybe they can use some of the

121
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: RPO run pass option game to help Ty Gurley get off.

122
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: But Tavon Austin has to be a factor. Kenny Britt

123
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: has to be able to stretch to feel they will

124
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: need to utilize all the weapons available to them that

125
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: they haven't necessarily utilized thus far. You know who's loving this,

126
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 1: by the way, and Dominicans sue he thinks, oh, you know,

127
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: he wants you think he may inadvertently step. I'm not

128
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: saying he's gonna do anything outside the rules. I'm just

129
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: saying that's not a very good offensive line. That's a

130
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback, and I'm it'll be I actually kind of

131
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: hope for Jared Goff's sake. I hope he gets hit

132
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: really good earliness game. Maybe it's suited somebody else, but

133
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: then just shake that off, loosen up a little bit,

134
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: and then and then get wrong. But he this Miami front,

135
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: he will get hit. I watched Dominican Sue on tape

136
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: from not this last week in San Diego, but the

137
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: previous week, and Bucky, he's just so dang strong man.

138
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: Their defense is running in the formso is making plays.

139
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: Man's Joseph has done a great job of keeping this

140
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: front multiple. They're doing a bunch of different things in

141
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: the back end coverage wise, in the house. How about

142
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: that two picks against San Diego charges um Byron Maxwell

143
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 1: had to pick. They're playing a little more zone backing

144
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: up seeing playing with vision. Uh, you know, when you

145
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: announced this so early in the week, he gives them

146
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 1: an opportunity to kind of add a lot of tricks

147
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: to the deal. He's going to see a lot of exotics,

148
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: and it'll be interesting to see how quickly he can

149
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: speed up his process to get the ball into his

150
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: playment his hands. One of the reason why I think

151
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 1: it's key that they get him out here now and

152
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: not wait any longer, is you just look at Philadelphia.

153
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: Wentz had that early success. Right then he goes through

154
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 1: a little bit of a low. He's best some adversity. Now,

155
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: you know, we'll see Kenny, he's starting to pull out

156
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: of it a little bit. Cann He continue to go

157
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: through that, proved yourself. Get through those in order to

158
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: get where you're gonna be where you want to be

159
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: as a quarterback. Take Dak Prescott, that's a unicorn. Okay,

160
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: that's a unique situation that rarely happens. You gotta go

161
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: through your downtime. So let's get those down times out

162
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: of the way as soon as we can. So next

163
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: year when you start week one, you hit the ground

164
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: running with this kid. Well, let's be honest. I mean,

165
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: there's been a rush to get him on the field.

166
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: But in a perfect world, this is kind of when

167
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: you wanted to put the rookie on the field. You

168
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: want right around the midway point team games in, you

169
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: have six seven games left, you're at home. Now, you

170
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: play him to get him some momentum going into next year.

171
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: So this is an opportunity for them to do that.

172
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: If they have success, maybe the kid's lightening the bottle,

173
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: maybe they make it to the playoffs. But right now

174
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: it's about setting Jerry Golf up so he can have

175
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: success next year. Alright, no question, all right, these games

176
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: last week, Buck, you touched on the primetime game, the

177
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: Monday night game Bengals Giants. I went back this morning

178
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: and watched all of Eli's throws. By the way, offensive

179
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: line wise, they're not very good. Atkins had his way

180
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: with that group up front, but Eli is tough, hung

181
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 1: in there, and they may some things happen. I love

182
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: how they made them pay for doubling up Odell Beckham.

183
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: Everybody you sit at home, you watch game, you go,

184
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: you know we're not gonna let this guy be double

185
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: double them. Okay, well you double them, there's gonna lead

186
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: to some matchups. Across the field you're not gonna like,

187
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: and they were able to get Sterling Shepard lined up on.

188
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: I think it was perfect coming across the field, coming

189
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: across the middle. He's got no shot doing doing some things.

190
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: They creatively done it. And the thing about the Giants

191
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: that I'm impressed with a lot of their passing game

192
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: is all quick game. I think they may throw more

193
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: slants and quick in breaking routes than any other team

194
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: in the National Football League, and they allowed their playmakers

195
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: to get loose. They've also done a better job of

196
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: late of making sure that Odell Beckham stays in the game,

197
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: meaning they forced some balls to get his way to

198
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: kind of get him into the mix earlier. I saw that.

199
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: And when you keep him in gaze, he can continue

200
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: to be a difference maker. Dead double move he ran

201
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: on uh put that on snap by the way, move

202
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: the sticks on Snapchat. That's a yeah, hit him, hit him.

203
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 1: He just he's squared up and then wheeled right around him.

204
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: Now that that's a play where I'm move right there. Yeah,

205
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: that was sick. The UH Seahawks Patriots, I guess I'd say, Look,

206
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit surprised. I thought at home in

207
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: New England would give them some trouble. But man Seattle

208
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 1: came out and just smacked him in the mouth a

209
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: little bit, and not to me the story of this game.

210
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: Going back and watching that tape, c J process is

211
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: a problem for people. He is doing it we compared

212
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: with David Johnson coming out. He is doing some David

213
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: Johnson type things where they line him up at receiver.

214
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: This is why I don't understand. You get athletic back

215
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: like that too too, who has been a receiver as

216
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: has David Johnson. And on Total Access this week on Friday,

217
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: I'm doing a little bit on David Johnson. They they

218
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: motion these guys out Buck and they treat him like

219
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: running backs. You got to treat them like wide receivers

220
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: at least you gotta drop a safety down there and

221
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: match him. You take your inside linebacker in motion and

222
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: match motion with him. You get what you deserve. In

223
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: my opinion. You know, it's a problem, and you know

224
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: we're talking about c J process and the versatility he

225
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: and another guy that was at Notre Dame before him, theoretic.

226
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: Theoretic had some experience playing wide receiver, and there's a

227
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: reason why on third down on some of those special players,

228
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 1: you can put them in and split them out wide

229
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: and create a problem. C J. Prosie gave the Seattle

230
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 1: Seahawks exactly what they really needed. They needed someone else

231
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: who could be a factor, someone else who could be

232
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: a guy that could create double teams to create freedom

233
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: or one on one opportunities touchdowns. Not a coincidence, Doug

234
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: Ball when Jimmy Graham, Jimmy Graham also is a guy

235
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: that can kind of dictate coverage. So now they have

236
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: two guys who can create double teams which allows those

237
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: other guys to get one on one coverage. Doug Ball,

238
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: when has been a guy that has been able to

239
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: win really nice route runner. I like how that offense

240
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 1: is going. I still believe they need to be able

241
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: to have a physical presence in terms of running. But

242
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 1: if he's able to give them the total yards from

243
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 1: scrimmage that he gave them, that offense is going to

244
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: be a problem. And then defensively, they always have the

245
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: tools to be able to get it done with it

246
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: without Michael Bennett. That's what just how physical they are

247
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: and they've you know a lot of people talk about

248
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: them being a covered, covered three team, a single house

249
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: safety team. They've become more than just that. But at

250
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: the end of the day, they can cover you and

251
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: they can hit you, and they have willing tacklers. They

252
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: kind of changed the evaluation part of it for me

253
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 1: in terms of when I'm looking for secondary guys, they

254
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 1: have to be able to hit running cover there. You

255
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: gotta be able to do it. We used to say

256
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: in Baltimore, you'll never have a great defense if your

257
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: corners can't tackle. Everybody has to be willing. That mean

258
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: they have to be willing tacklers, and if they're more

259
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: physical than willing, then that gives you a chance to

260
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: take it to another another level. You got you got

261
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 1: force defenders there on the edge. Alright, other big game

262
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 1: from the weekend. Man, we had so many good games

263
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: Cowboys Steelers. I'll tell you what the story of this

264
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: game to me, And I don't want to diminish anything

265
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: from Dak Prescott who was great, Zeke Elliott who was great.

266
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,200
Speaker 1: Des Bryant made plays. But the way that the Dallas

267
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: Cowboys offensive line, when you go watch that tape, Bock,

268
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: the way they man handled and mauled that Steelers front,

269
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: that was the game that was the game. And I

270
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: think when you're looking at tape and you have to

271
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: take those games to the lake stage of the fourth quarter,

272
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: I want to see who is able to win and

273
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: control the trenches in those stages, and without questions, Dallas

274
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: Cowboys were able to have their way offensively because they

275
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: mashed the Pittsburgh still Is in the fourth quarter. Ezekiel

276
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: Ellett is a hard charge of running. He's a physical runner.

277
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: That first drive, the way he laid it down on

278
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: Mike Mitchell, you want to see that. But at the

279
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: end of the day, the front five, the front line

280
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: from the Dallas Cowboys completely dominated and obliterated the Pittsburgh

281
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: still Is at the point of attack. It just is

282
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: a testament to how they beat them up consistently throughout

283
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: the death. I had a buddy with the team send

284
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: me a copy of his report on Ezekiel Elliott and

285
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,839
Speaker 1: just highlighted one little thing because he was watching that game.

286
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: It's that he doesn't work for the Cowboys. The line

287
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: that he had in his report was, they say it

288
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: takes a village to raise a child, but it also

289
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: takes a village to tackle ezekielated. That is a nice

290
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: report but that's true though, like you know, after he

291
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: settled in after the first two games of the season

292
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: and quit trying to necessarily prove to everybody why he

293
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: was the top five pick, he has been outstanding. We've

294
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: seen the same guy that we saw at Ohio State,

295
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: the same guy that was able to kind of put

296
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: that offense on the back in critical situations. We're now

297
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: beginning to see them use him more in the past game,

298
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 1: which is something that he wasn't really featured in at

299
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 1: Ohio State, but I knew about it having watched him

300
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: from high school. Using him in the screen game, being

301
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: able to get him the ball inside and outside, and man,

302
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 1: he's a three down back. He's the epitome of it.

303
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: You almost are reluctant to take him off the field

304
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: because he can do everything that you want to see

305
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: at that position. Um, here's the interesting thing about the Cowboys,

306
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: and I give Scott Land had a lot of credit

307
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: for this buck you talked about the screen game. Here's

308
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 1: the problem. When you're trying to defend the Cowboys, you

309
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: can't beat them up front. So if you're gonna rush

310
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: four Dak Prescott's gonna sit back there. They're gonna let

311
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley and wait, and they're gonna worry out. So

312
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: if you can't get there before, what you gotta do.

313
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: You gotta bring start bringing pressure. So you're gonna bring pressure,

314
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna screen you, and so next thing you know,

315
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: you get caught with your pants down and you got

316
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: Zeke Elliott out the back door. He's got three or

317
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 1: four blockers in front of him. So you're gonna you're

318
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: gonna pick your poison position there. Defensively with this team

319
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: right now. Offensively, if if we were playing a video game,

320
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: I would want to play with the Dallas Cowboys on

321
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: offense because they don't have any holes. On offense. They

322
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: have a true number one receiver in Dez Bryant. They

323
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: have the middle of the field controller in Jason Winton,

324
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: and also Cole Beasley, have a number a number two

325
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: receiver in Terrence Williams who can make plays when those

326
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: opportunities are there. Big offensive line, so you can run

327
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: it whenever you want to run it, how you ever

328
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: you want to run it. You have a running back

329
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: that can do everything, and right now the quarterback is

330
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: making great decisions and not turning the ball over and

331
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: so when you're dealing with a force like that, and

332
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: we're always trying to make a team play left handed.

333
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can make the Cowboys play

334
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: left handed, because they're alternatives are still strong enough to

335
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: allow them to win the games. You make them pass,

336
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: they can wear you out. Pass you. You try and say, oh,

337
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: we'll give them to run, they will run it willingly

338
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 1: for two d plush yards. I don't know how you

339
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: really slow them down. To me, it looks like a

340
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: collision course with Seattle. That's what looks like in the NFC,

341
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: And to me, that's maybe one of the few teams

342
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: that matches up favorably with Dallas because they can put

343
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: the big corners out there on desk. And then you've

344
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: got Michael Bennett, who doesn't matter how dominant they are,

345
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: he's a problem. He's a problem if he's healthy inside

346
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: and Cliff April coming off the edge. To me, you

347
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: get Cliff April, you put him over Doug Free and

348
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: you say you you go in the game for me,

349
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: you know this is I think a great match up

350
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: for both teams. At two thousand fourteen, I was up

351
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: in Seattle uh Central Linkfield when the Cowboys came on

352
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: the road and they beat them with DeMarco Murray. And

353
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 1: when the Cowboys are committed to running the ball like

354
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: they were committed in that game. They were committed to

355
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: running the ball. They got thirty plus carries up there.

356
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: They wore the Seahawks down in the end. And I

357
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: think part of your strategy when you're dealing with Seattle

358
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 1: this you have to be willing to run the ball.

359
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: Even though it doesn't matter, you have to run it.

360
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have the front line and the personnel to

361
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,479
Speaker 1: be able to do that. The problem is their defense.

362
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: Can their defense hold up, because at the end of

363
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: the day, that's the weakest part of their team. Can

364
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: the defense hold up? Their office has been able to

365
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: kinter play keep away to prevent them from being on

366
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: the field to be exposed. Can they stop a Seattle?

367
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: How many losses the Seattle have right now? I think

368
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: they have to to so right now they would have

369
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: to go to Dallas. Your home field is critical, So

370
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys they can't have a hiccup because

371
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 1: you do not want the championship game to have to

372
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: run through Seattle. How interesting? How about the irony in

373
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: the preseason, Tony Romo goes down at Seattle, yea, and

374
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: that could be what the sides who goes to the

375
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, they could that could be your NFC championship.

376
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: They could be the championship game, and it would be

377
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: nice because when you look, there's a huge separation I

378
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: believe in the NFC right now between the Seattle Sehawks

379
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: and the Dallas Cowboys in the rest of the pack. Um,

380
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: those two teams are head and showed as above the

381
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: other teams, and so who can come up and challenge them?

382
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: I will say for the Dallas Cowboys, the road is

383
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 1: a little tougher because within their division, Washington the Giants,

384
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: there's some good teams and they'll be tested and they

385
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: could go on a stretch where they lose a couple

386
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: of games because they're playing in the division roubles, all right,

387
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: couple other points and then we'll get to some of

388
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: these other things here. Um, Jamis Winston and Marcus Mariot

389
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: are both playing good football right now. Second, your guys,

390
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: we've seen some ups and downs. I think they've kind

391
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: of leveled that, you know, they've become more consistent. Um

392
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: did a nice job. Jamis Winston had the circus play

393
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: in that game, and then man, the Titans beat the

394
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,679
Speaker 1: snot out of Green Bay. How funny is that we

395
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: did the preview video for that game. We laid out

396
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: the case for why the Titans or how they could

397
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,679
Speaker 1: beat Green Bay, and then we both wimped out and

398
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: did not did not picking. We should have gone with

399
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: our our gut on that one. Chargers Dolphins. Great game. Dolphins, Um,

400
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: you know, just find a way to making Tannehill made

401
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: a big time throw in that game. Their defense, Kiko

402
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: Alonso stepped up, made plays. Um Larmy Tunso got a

403
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: chance to play some left tackle, did a really nice

404
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: job out there to spring j j I. That was

405
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: That was a fun game. Any other games on here

406
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 1: that stood out to you? Buck for this late this

407
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 1: last week, I think the thing that stands out and

408
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: we have to talk about it in scouting the Saints

409
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 1: and the Broncos brings up why as a scout you

410
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: have to pay attention to special teams play. You have

411
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: to know what guys are and what they potentially can do,

412
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 1: especially at the bottom of the roster guys. So Justin

413
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 1: Simmons at the end of the game on the p

414
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 1: A t he jumps over the center. His Afordians vertical

415
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: jumps over bass it away, they pick it up, they

416
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: scoop and those are the deciding points. And so when

417
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: you're looking on the road and you go and do

418
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: all you due diligence and school calls, sometimes you have

419
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: to pop in a couple of snaps all special teams

420
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: so you can paint the picture that might have been

421
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: the deciding factor for the Denver Broncos in the game,

422
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,159
Speaker 1: the fact that a scout was able to look at

423
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 1: Justin Simmons and see, oh, he has some special team

424
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: ability and maybe in his background he has blocked the

425
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 1: number of kicks. Those things matter, and they really matter

426
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: on good teams in big games. So good scouting departments

427
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: here is one of the things that they do. And

428
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 1: in talking about special teams, you'll have each scout during

429
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 1: the fall, maybe you know pretty much you've been through

430
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: all your schools right now, Right now, scouts are going

431
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: back cleaning up reports, going back in for second and

432
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: third visits at schools. But they seen everybody in their area.

433
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 1: So you gotta email gets sent out and says similar

434
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: your top five special teams players now they might be

435
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 1: star players, and you have first round grades on they

436
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: might be six or seventh round backup players. But just

437
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: tell me who are the five best special team players

438
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: you've seen, Because when you go into a school, you

439
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: study the special teams as well. If they're if they're

440
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: you know, a prospect, or they're senior draft eligible, you

441
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: gotta watch them and take notes on what they do

442
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: on special teams. So you send those in what they do.

443
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: Then on their cards on the draft board, you're gonna

444
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: put a little color color on there, maybe it's green

445
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 1: or whatever to signify who those guys are. You get

446
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 1: in draft meetings and buck you know how it is.

447
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: You get in there. You've got four safeties, and you've

448
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: got four different areas of the country. You have the

449
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 1: exact same grade. One of them's got a green dot.

450
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: Who do you think you're gonna put it to the

451
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: green dot? That is the deciding factor, and a lot

452
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 1: of situations, particularly down Day three, you're trying to figure

453
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: out because normally those Day three guys, your fourth round

454
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: or below, those are the guys that comprise most of

455
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: your special teams. So special teams are a big factor.

456
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: Being able to have a special skill, be it as

457
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: a turner, being a guy that can block kicks, being

458
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 1: a gunner, stud uh cover guy. Those things separate you

459
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: from the pack, which is why a lot of guys

460
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: I would encourage, even starters, even high profile guys. You

461
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: need to play special teams because ultimately everybody plays special

462
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: teams in some way, shape or fashion in the league.

463
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: All Right, I talked about earlier, Um, third down. We're

464
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: talking about being the money down, the money most important

465
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: down in football. So I sent to Bill Smith, our

466
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: researcher extraordinary. I said, send me some nuggets here. I need.

467
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: I need some third down information. See who's doing well?

468
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: All right, highest third down highest passer rating on third

469
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,920
Speaker 1: down this season. Pass rating is not the best st at,

470
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: but these numbers are interesting. Tom Brady on third down

471
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:42,479
Speaker 1: as a pass rating five touchdowns, no picks. Drew Brees

472
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,360
Speaker 1: eight touchdowns, two picks, A one sixteen rating, Roethlisberger eight touchdown,

473
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: one pick, Matt Ryan four touchdowns, no picks. So third down,

474
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: who the dudes are right now? Brady, Breeze, Roethlisberger, Ryan

475
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: usual suspects Ryan Ryan would be the new guy that's

476
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 1: kind of in that club. Uh. The reason those guys

477
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: all excel. They understand the game. They also understand the

478
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: urgency that comes with winning on third down. They put

479
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 1: themselves probably in a position to convert third down because

480
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: they understand how to win first and second now, but

481
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: experience matters when it comes to conversions. All right, I'm

482
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: gonna see if you can guess this one, buck Um.

483
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: I think there's the one that you that maybe would

484
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: be lave you in one direction. It might not be

485
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:28,360
Speaker 1: that most third down receptions this year give you a hint.

486
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: It's a wide receiver in the NFC South. Okay, let's

487
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: go Tennessee. Let's go Matthews. No, Tennessee a f C South,

488
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: NFC South. So think about the teams here, Carolina, Atlanta, Tampa. Um,

489
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: who else am I missing? Carolina, Atlanta, Tampa in New Orleans? Okay,

490
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 1: my guests would be Adam Humphreys. But I don't think

491
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: this right. Mike Evans third down, third downs. Mike Evans

492
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: has eight teen catches on third down. Man, everyone knows

493
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: who of those touches. That's what I'm saying. But that's

494
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: when we talk about the definition of a number one

495
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: wide receiver. Everyone knows third down, red zone. Everybody knows

496
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: where it's going and you can't stop it. I think

497
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: Mike Evans, we put him in that category, is a

498
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 1: true number one. Okay, here's something that coaches always say.

499
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: I think players, not place. Everyone just get I need

500
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: to get this guy going. I need to get it

501
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: to the player so everyone knows. Hey, man, it's gonna

502
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: go to Mike Evans. I don't care. He's better than

503
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: your guy. I'm an feed it to him. It's not

504
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: about the play. Is players overplays, all right. So here's

505
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 1: some other names on this. Number two actually sorry, tied,

506
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: tied for the lead. Amari Cooper third down once again,

507
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: we talked about it. Number one guy, he's only he's

508
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 1: got one touchdown. Then some interesting names. Randall Cobb has seventeen. Now,

509
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: they've probably been in a lot of third downs to

510
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 1: be part of that deal. Jordan read, even having missed

511
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: games for Washington seventeen. That's one of the toughest covers

512
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 1: in the league. He is, and you can make the

513
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 1: argument that he's there number one receiver. He's their number

514
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: one playmaker in the pass game. He is everything they

515
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: kind of builded around him. Those other guys are supplemented

516
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: reviews how about this one, Kenny britt seventeen catches. Well,

517
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: I can see that he's been. He's there number one

518
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: in l a other places. The thing is, to me,

519
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: when you draft Havon Austin, that's you're drafting him to

520
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: be your third down escape guy. They they they are,

521
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: so a couple more guys with seventeen they're all tied here. Uh.

522
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: Cole Beasley not surprising to make. He was the one

523
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: guy that I thought would be because I know Dad

524
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 1: has a has really a chemistry and a trust with him.

525
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 1: And then Jarvis Landry. So you've got interesting collection. You've

526
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: got some slot guys, you've got a great tight end,

527
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: and then you've got a couple of guys on the end. Finally,

528
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: the common denominator um. With the exception of Cole Beasley,

529
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: all those other guys are kind of number one guys

530
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: on their respect their team. Jarvis Landry, even as he

531
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't necessarily be a prototypical number one receiver to them,

532
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: he's he's he's to do them alright. Most third down

533
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: rush yards and and this to me, it's almost not

534
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: just the rush yards, because you can be in the

535
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: third and twenty run a draw and get some rush yards.

536
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: But the conversions for the first downs I have on

537
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: here as well. But the most third down rush yards

538
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 1: but all Powell hundred twenty three. He's got eight first

539
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: down conversions. Lev Bell, even though he's missed time, a

540
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 1: hundred and eleven yards, six first downs, Melvin Gordon a

541
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 1: hundred and two yards, ten first down runs. Uh, that's big.

542
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: The other person with ten first down runs to Marco

543
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: Murray on third down, so he's been good. That to

544
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 1: me is more in short yardage. Uh. Lamar Miller shows

545
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: up on here. But how about this name for most

546
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: third down rush yards this season? Andrew Luck with nine

547
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 1: conversions running the football man. You know the funny thing

548
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people, the way they envision Andrew Luck

549
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: in the way he actually plays are two different things.

550
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: He's far more athletic than people give him credit for.

551
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: He uses the legs, legs a lot more than people

552
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: really expect to imagine. And that Stead right there suggested

553
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: he understands how to use his athleticism to his benefit.

554
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: All right, most third down sacks. So this again, these

555
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: we talk about closers. This is no question, I say,

556
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: Trevor Hoffman. You say Rivera. We're not neither here nor there.

557
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 1: Um most third down sacks you I've got, I'll tell you,

558
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: give you a hint. Two, there's there's four guys that

559
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: have five third down sacks. And this maybe if you're listening,

560
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: you can figure this out. You can guess. Here guys,

561
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: two of them are tied. Two of the two of

562
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 1: the guys at the top tied with five sacks are teammates.

563
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: You'll never get it. You'll never get it. At the top.

564
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 1: Two guys tied at the top five apiece. I don't

565
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: know the two yet. One guy I was gonna say

566
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: one team has won a Super Bowl. This team has

567
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: won a Super Bowl within the last five years. Team

568
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: is from the NFC NFC West. Cliff Avrol is one.

569
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 1: Who's the other one on their team with five sacks

570
00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 1: on third down? Frank Clark Boom about that because Michael

571
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: Buness her. So that's what I'm saying. Now, how about that?

572
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: So third down April and Frank Clark five sex a piece,

573
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: Von Miller five sacks, um Eric Walden with five third

574
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: down sacks for the Cult seven and a half sacks

575
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: or something under the radar. And then Lorenzo Alexander, who's

576
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 1: having it is just a career year. He's got half

577
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 1: three years old and having the best year of his life.

578
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 1: But those dudes are doing it on third down. So

579
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 1: I always think it's throughout the year. Periodically, I like

580
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: to check in and see what's going on in that money,

581
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: But it's money down, you know, the next category when

582
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,239
Speaker 1: it comes down his fourth quarter performance in terms of

583
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: like fourth quarter within seven, I would love to see

584
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: that how many sacks guys are generating in the fourth quarter,

585
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: because that's what we talked about most down the closes

586
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: are being able to shut the door. Um, you have

587
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,199
Speaker 1: to have the ability to generate rush when you were

588
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: up a head and doing some of those things. All right,

589
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 1: before we get out of here, but we gotta go

590
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: to these college upsets real quick. Where's your take? What's

591
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: the most surprising of all of them? To me? Going down?

592
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 1: I was gonna say it's Iowa to mean I shouldn't

593
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: be surprised because that's Iowa. I was gonna lose in

594
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 1: North Dakota State every year. But then they're gonna beat

595
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: somebody to have no business beaten. So they beat Michigan,

596
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 1: which is I mean is un unbelievable. With the other

597
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 1: thing is they knocked the quarterback cow, so now Wilson

598
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 1: Spade may not be able to play against Ohio State

599
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: and you know that the buckouts are not sympathetic. Um.

600
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,880
Speaker 1: I think the bigger thing is the rivalry between Rich

601
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: Eisen and Albert Brier. Are they battling still on They're

602
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: going back and forth, and I think Albert he may

603
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: have taken a little delight and watching Rich's team go

604
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: down a little bit. You are like the tennis match, judge,

605
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I just I just think it's funny that

606
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 1: they had like a little twitter beef. Yeah, they go

607
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 1: in on each other. Um, we both picked sc to

608
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: beat Washington, So I don't know that was a huge price.

609
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 1: You ended up going to the game. Yeah, it went

610
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 1: to the game. But you know what was very impressive

611
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: about that game was watching a Dorri Jackson and John

612
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,560
Speaker 1: Rosscoe had to head and they were mashed up all

613
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: the time. But John Rush finished with eight receptions a

614
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: hundred fifty four yards. But Dorry Jackson had a couple

615
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: of big plays and the rare win win when you

616
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: can check off the boxes for both guys and be like,

617
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: oh yeah, both guys both did it. They both did it,

618
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: and so it was really good. I think the counter

619
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,199
Speaker 1: is watching Sidney Jones and Juju get away from him

620
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: at all. I haven't seen the tape, you know, like

621
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: that's I know it's back a little bit. But I

622
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 1: think there's a difference between Juju and John Ross in

623
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: terms of the explosiveness and the versatility and what you

624
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: could get out of both players if you brought them.

625
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 1: Man With John Ross, he's a speaster, but he's also

626
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: very polished route runner or whatever. Juju is more of

627
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: a playmaker, meaning that I don't know if he's the

628
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 1: most polished wide receiver, but he has to have the

629
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: ball in his hands to make things happen. I don't

630
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: know how much juice, you know, how much physical play,

631
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: how much grief I got When I did my comparison

632
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: for him in the spring, you compared to Bolden, I

633
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: compared him to uh, Michael Floyd. That's not a bad

634
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: compared people like Michael Floyd. Stiff and he can't really run.

635
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's I mean, jujuo is, but he's big.

636
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: He's not he's not dynamic. He's big and fast, and yeah,

637
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 1: it's physical and and he's not a polished route runner

638
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: at all. No, and he's made strides, but he was

639
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: the guy who didn't play a lot of wide receiver

640
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,479
Speaker 1: in high school. So it's still kind of nude him.

641
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 1: But that game, I will say this, you can already

642
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: see it kind of coming back for USC. You can

643
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: see you remember how we used to love to take

644
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: their visit. That used to be a two day visit.

645
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: My favorite part of those visits, by the way, when

646
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: you go to SC back in the day, was not

647
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: to go look at the senior starters. It was to

648
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: look at the freshman that they had brought in and

649
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 1: be like, whoa wh who is this dude? Yes, he'll

650
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 1: be out there Tyrone Smith and mccleo both red shirting.

651
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: They'll he'll be playing next year. So they they're beginning

652
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: to load it up to make a run. And I

653
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: don't think it's a coincidence that we're seeing some of

654
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: those teams, the Oregons and stuff kind of come back

655
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 1: to the back back a little bit, come back because

656
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,959
Speaker 1: now SE has full a lot met of scholarships, they

657
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: can they can keep everybody in the fence. The state

658
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,960
Speaker 1: of l A. Yeah, they are. Those are eight to

659
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: ten guys that they had to just let go to

660
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: other competitors because they didn't have the scholarship. Yeah, they

661
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: can keep it together and look, the quarterback has made

662
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: the difference. I still think that the throwing motion is

663
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: a little quirky. Long but it's weird though it's it's quick,

664
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: but it's long. Yeah, it's it's it's it's funny quick release,

665
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: but it's just long's it's fussle. Wilson kind of has

666
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 1: I would describe him. Yeah, it's funny to watch, but

667
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: the ball gets out. He does a good job. And

668
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: I also think with the Washington quarterback Jake Browning, you

669
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: and I talked about that he's a nice college player.

670
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: I think at yeah, I think you saw a little

671
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: bit of the difference where he's not quite one of

672
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,239
Speaker 1: those upper guys. So here was my thing. When I

673
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: watched that game on TV, I was I was didn't

674
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 1: get see it live. I recorded it, went back and

675
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: watched and haven't watched the all twenty two tape. But

676
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 1: my takeaway from it was man s he played good.

677
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: They did a nice job. The quarterback from watching has

678
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: had an awful game. They had some dudes. They had

679
00:30:56,160 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: dudes wide open down, bad decisions, some blown coverages. Even

680
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 1: late in the game. I don't know what he was doing.

681
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: They're protecting like an eleven point lead and they let

682
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: somebody to get right on top of him and miss

683
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: a throw. He just didn't have a very good game.

684
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: Didn't have a good game. But you know they were

685
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: able to kind of get up to him up front.

686
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: They had some pressure. Is turned into a good player. Yeah,

687
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: And they're fast like sc is fast like when they

688
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: put the young guys out there. They're fast defense and

689
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: sometimes to speak and make up for some of the mistakes.

690
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: All Right, the other big games we had Clemson, how

691
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: about that one Pitt. You know, Pitt is a funny

692
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: team because I watched Pitt play North Carolina and that

693
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: was a tricky game for the lost to the very end,

694
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: and they did some things. I mean, beat Pennon State.

695
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: I think. I think the big thing in that game,

696
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: I look tip my hat to Mike Williams because the

697
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: play that he made on an interception, to me will

698
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 1: be one of those that you play, yeah, and and

699
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 1: and and meeting when we was talking about like this

700
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 1: is an all th guy. But I think that you

701
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: watched the Sean on that by the way, after the pick.

702
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 1: I did not watch him. But I will say, here's

703
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: the thing about the Shawn Watson. I know he went

704
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: out with the seniors. They kind of celebrated his senior day. Um,

705
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: so it's I guess the deal that he's coming out.

706
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: What I would wonder is if he couldn't benefit from

707
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 1: another year, I think he could of school. Now. I

708
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: mean not from a draft position or whatever, like, I

709
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: don't know how much of the change, but the experience.

710
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: I just believe this year people got a chance to

711
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: have to take from the previous year. They made some adjustments.

712
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 1: They're making them, you know, kind of be a pocket

713
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: pass and do some of those things. I just think

714
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: he needs a lot of work in that area. Here's

715
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,719
Speaker 1: here's Yeah, the decision making was not good. The red

716
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: zone interceptions when you're trying to put a game away

717
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: not good. But to me, the interesting thing is, you

718
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: remember we both had Teddy Bridgewater as the as the

719
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: top quarterback in the raft class. But you can have

720
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: two things. You can say what we believe, but you

721
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: can also state what you're hearing from talking to people.

722
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: Are on the league. Nobody had that I talked to

723
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: in the in the scouting community had Teddy Bridgewater as

724
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 1: high as we did. They weren't high on him for

725
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: whatever reason. We've been through a million times. But so

726
00:32:58,440 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 1: then people get Maddie, how can you sound like, No,

727
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying this is my opinion. I'm saying this

728
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: is what I'm hearing in the league. And sure enough

729
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: draft game he dropped all the way down to where

730
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: he was picked by Minnesota Deshaun Watson Buck. I don't

731
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: talk to anybody that has a really, really strong uh

732
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 1: backing of his play. Yeah, I don't talk to anybody.

733
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 1: So to me, it's eerily similar to to Bridgewater in

734
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: that I think some people assume his draft position. I

735
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: think they'll be very surprised at what that ends up being.

736
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: And I will say this about the Seawan And here's

737
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 1: the thing. Having studied him and I know him, so

738
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 1: I can not careful with all words. But in watching him,

739
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: he's a little different than I thought based on the

740
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: glimpses that I saw the previous year. When you see

741
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: I was at the Alabama game, he was on fire. Yeah,

742
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: when you see the Alabama game, when you see the

743
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: North Carolina game, in the a SEC Championship, in the

744
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: Oklahoma game where he had three really good games and

745
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 1: he seemed like he was playing at a different speed.

746
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: I think what has happened to me is having watched

747
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 1: him on the same field with Lamar Jackson, He's not

748
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 1: as dynamic an athlete as I thought. So you'll run

749
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: a little bit, but he's not the explosive dude that

750
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: we thought. And so now I wonder if he doesn't

751
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: have that A plus athleticism where he can be dynamic

752
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: as a runner, is he good enough as a pastor

753
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: to be able to control the game and affect the gap?

754
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 1: Now maybe he can go and do some of the

755
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott stuff that Dak was able to do. But

756
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: right now I think the feury is I don't know

757
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: if he's an A plus athlete and I know he's

758
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 1: not an A development as a pastor, So so where

759
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: do you take that? Does that mean he's a backup

760
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: developmental type for a team that already has a quarterback?

761
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,240
Speaker 1: What is the vida? Is that second? Is that third round?

762
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 1: Where does that fall? And again I'm not saying what

763
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,239
Speaker 1: he can or can't be at the next level. I'm

764
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:51,240
Speaker 1: just telling you from the personnel community, there's the enthusiasm

765
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 1: meter is at a zero and and and to be

766
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: and to be honest about all of these quarterbacks, no question. No,

767
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't know because the the other guy, Mr Brisky,

768
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,400
Speaker 1: Mr Brisky from North Carolina has kind of been the

769
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: guy that's been to Johnny Come lately. A lot of

770
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: people talking about him, buzzing about him. His stats look great,

771
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: he has twin two touchdowns for an interceptions. But what

772
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: I will say is at the end of the day,

773
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: when we turn the page and we get to the

774
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: draft season, on paper, the concerns will be this, He's

775
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: only had fourteen or fifteen college starts. In those college starts,

776
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: he has run up some nice numbers. But in those

777
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: pivotal moments when you really need to see him against

778
00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: Duke backed up, it would have been a great opportunity

779
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: for him. Balls on the eight yeard line canny lead

780
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: him to a game winning drive, because if he does,

781
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:36,839
Speaker 1: then you can start checking the box about him being

782
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: a clutch player. I see a guy who is athletic

783
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: enough like athletic to make some plays, but he's a

784
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: reluctant athlete in terms of being able to run, it,

785
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: has a good enough arm, can make the throws, can

786
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: do some of those things, or whatever. Um can play

787
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: when the game is on schedule, still stares down the quarterback,

788
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: I mean stares down this primary receiver a little too much.

789
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: I believe he would benefit for some more time, time

790
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: and reps. He can go. He can probably fool people

791
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,399
Speaker 1: and get drafted high. I just think, like, if we're

792
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 1: talking about this for the long haul, you want to

793
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: put yourself in the best position to really enjoy a

794
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: lengthy career. And I just don't know as a one

795
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: year wonder guy where he goes. So I want to

796
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: take people into the draft room right now because this

797
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: is a great example what goes on in the draft room.

798
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: This is like Bucky just read his report. Okay, this

799
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: is he just gave his evaluation, and so this would

800
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,360
Speaker 1: be a total center or to take place in the

801
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: draft room. I would sit here and listen to Bucky

802
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 1: read that, and I would say, okay, I'd be, you know,

803
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: kind of scribbling down notes, and Bucky said, okay, he's

804
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 1: hadn't played that much limited number of starts. He can

805
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: make every throw. He's kind of a reluctant athlete. You know,

806
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: the clutch stuff, is that really there? I don't know

807
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,240
Speaker 1: he's got he's got some tools, but there's just question marks.

808
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 1: You just described Mark Sanchez. You just just like to

809
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 1: a t that was what Mark Sanchez and that and

810
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 1: that's why, and that's what, and that's what Pete Carroll had.

811
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: He was another year. Take another year because I just

812
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: don't know if you had enough. And that is really

813
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,280
Speaker 1: a good example because I think Mark maybe teams stuff

814
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,880
Speaker 1: dead and and he was saying long term, I know

815
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: you went in the top ten, that's great, but in

816
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 1: terms of your sustained success as a starter at the

817
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: next level, you need more college experience. And I think

818
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: that's the common denominated with the young guys that are

819
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: playing and playing well. If you look at Carson Wentz,

820
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, even whatever you think about Cody Kessler, all

821
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,440
Speaker 1: of those guys five year guys, a lot of experience,

822
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 1: a lot of reps on the practice field, a lot

823
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: of game reps. It allowed them to have an easy

824
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 1: year or maybe a quicker transition to the league. I

825
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: believe more teams have to look at the guys that

826
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 1: have success that way. Because I don't know if an

827
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: under classmen can come in and have that kind of

828
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 1: success right away. It's gonna be interesting to see who

829
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 1: ends up declaring in this draft, because I think it's

830
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: gonna be a battle for people, because they're gonna see

831
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 1: the opportunity. It's gonna be a supplied demand thing. They're

832
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,080
Speaker 1: gonna say, there's not any quarterbacks. Is a great opportunity

833
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: for me to come out and go high. May be

834
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 1: higher than my ability suggests I should because of the

835
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 1: weak crop of quarterbacks, but that's short sighted, that's short

836
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,720
Speaker 1: term thinking. Long term, I think these guys better served

837
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,400
Speaker 1: stay in school, get that extra year of experience. And

838
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: just like you said, the Senior Bowl has been producing

839
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 1: all the quarterbacks in the NFL, and I called it's

840
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: not called the red shirt Sophomore Bawl. Its been a

841
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 1: lot of experience, and I think you can make the

842
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: same case. Because I think the interesting guy that we'll

843
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 1: talk about at the end of this will be Deshaun Kaiser,

844
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 1: because Deshaun Kaiser is a guy that this has not

845
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 1: been the best year for him, but we talked about

846
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: the fantastic start that he had at Texas and the

847
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: thing that I think is a little different for him

848
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 1: than Mr Robinsky and also Deshaun Wasason. You're talking about

849
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 1: an athletic quarterback who also has prototypical traits, and so

850
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: the traits we talked about, armed talent or whatever. I

851
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 1: think there, wild traits, size, intelligence, all the other stuff.

852
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: The production hasn't necessarily been there this year for whatever reason.

853
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: He is the one that I could see more people

854
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: lining up behind and say, if I'm a cast my

855
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: lot with somebody, I'm gonna cast my lot with the

856
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 1: big guy who has a prototypical trace, the athleticism, who

857
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,760
Speaker 1: we know has the intelligence and audited other stuff. He'll

858
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: be the guy that I think could be the one

859
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 1: that people set alone when it's all said and done,

860
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 1: if he elected to come out, it's gonna be fast.

861
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 1: We'll see. Uh. That deadline is usually the second week

862
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: of January, when these these guys decide who who's gonna

863
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: come out, who's not gonna come out? At that point

864
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 1: in time, then we start mock draft season. Buck, let's

865
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: enjoy these last sacred few weeks. I know, all right,

866
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:29,640

Speaker 1: We got a bunch of videos coming out. Better secondary.

870
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: What's the best secondary of the NFL? Will debate that

871
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: between Chiefs, Broncos, Seahawks, Cardinals, and then we're gonna have

872
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: a really spirited debate. We're gonna bring in Judge Reggie

873
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 1: Wayne to decide who has the better offense that Dallas

874
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 1: Cowboys or the Oakland Raiders. So be on the lookout

875
