Speaker 3: Fred tapped back into the old friend, just like almost today.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, yep, Fred, might not be I'm here.
Speaker 2: I'm here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been good.
Speaker 2: Everything's great.
Speaker 1: That was the weekend.
Speaker 2: The weekend was great. You gotta realize and Prince William
Speaker 2: County School has started the difference right there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, daughters in school?
Speaker 2: Yeahs in school. You had to take it to school. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I had to take it to school. You know, it's
Speaker 2: the new day. So what they started on they started
Speaker 2: last Thursday.
Speaker 1: Oh that's no fun.
Speaker 2: Listen, at the end of the day, you start to
Speaker 2: the end. Yeah, we know how it is. We started
Speaker 2: high school.
Speaker 1: Then absolutely tell how you're doing it.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 4: I'm good man, I'm just happy Fred minute.
Speaker 2: I needed that energy. I heard him.
Speaker 4: I wanted us to talk, but I wanted some energy
Speaker 4: to be brought.
Speaker 2: Into the room. And heard him say he heard me
Speaker 2: on the air, like.
Speaker 1: Like obviously late night game. Yeah, what time do you.
Speaker 4: Get left the stadium at like twelve something?
Speaker 2: Jinks?
Speaker 3: And then I got I got straight in yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: Jinks in here.
Speaker 2: So I had to give him a shout out.
Speaker 3: I got in the car and that was you know,
Speaker 3: I had the station on it, and I'm like, I
Speaker 3: hed the mouth of the South, and he took me home.
Speaker 2: Man. When I got home.
Speaker 3: By the time I got in my house, I'm literally
Speaker 3: taking you know, hitting the lock unlocked button.
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh fresh, still working.
Speaker 1: Fres working, the hardest working man in the best, say
Speaker 1: James Brown.
Speaker 2: That's my granddaddy.
Speaker 1: All right, so let's talk about the game. Yeah all right,
Speaker 1: obviously they broke the Baltimore Ravens twenty four consecutive pieces
Speaker 1: and wind streak. Yeah, does it matter? Fred?
Speaker 2: First of all, put put the equation together. What made
Speaker 2: them get to.
Speaker 1: Twis when you start talking about math man.
Speaker 2: You know, he go the equation. They always have a
Speaker 2: great second screen quarterback started with Joe Flacco being backed
Speaker 2: up by Lamar Jackson, Lamar Jackson being back to biology three,
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson being backed up by Honey who they got now,
Speaker 2: So they always having back a great quarterback sex scream.
Speaker 2: Then they also have they second team and third team
Speaker 2: is out. They have depth and I think that always
Speaker 2: helped them win. And they have the best kicker in football.
Speaker 2: And then don't forget this in the equation, kickers don't
Speaker 2: take the preseason out.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: They kick so at the end of the day with
Speaker 2: him being a weapon his and them having the mother
Speaker 2: too fastest, that's how you get to twenty four consecutive wins.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think you on something there that I think
Speaker 1: is really important. Is the depth for that group is
Speaker 1: always crazy. Like their second stringle line. I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: these guys should be playing for some team in the
Speaker 1: NFL right now. Yeah, and then they play the whole game.
Speaker 1: They play a ton of time, right, And then you
Speaker 1: mentioned they have the running quarterback. That's always really tough
Speaker 1: to deal with. They've always got some crazy small, fast
Speaker 1: running back us for a bunch of yards. So in
Speaker 1: the preseason that's always important. Ten it doesn't matter, I
Speaker 1: mean it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3: But I feel like when we was playing the preseason game,
Speaker 3: and let's just think back when we was players. Oh,
Speaker 3: we wanted to win, you know people, Yeah, we wanted
Speaker 3: to win. You know now, we didn't care if we
Speaker 3: did if we wasn't playing the whole you know game
Speaker 3: Like you know, I used to get take more of
Speaker 3: victories out of it, like a long as I went
Speaker 3: out and did what I told myself I was going
Speaker 3: to do that preseason game, I care less what the
Speaker 3: school was because I got better. I felt like I
Speaker 3: always had in my mind, I want a catcher two.
Speaker 3: I want this amount of reps. I want to look good.
Speaker 3: I want a great good. I want to be able
Speaker 3: to turn the film, want to say I did X, Y,
Speaker 3: and Z right, And that was a moral victory for me.
Speaker 3: Whether we want a loss, but as a team as
Speaker 3: a whole, whether you win or lose, when you come
Speaker 3: back to this facility, and you in training camp.
Speaker 2: That energy you.
Speaker 3: Know, reflects a little you know what I mean. So
Speaker 3: if we lost, we're gonna feel it, and I don't
Speaker 3: want to have to feel that soul.
Speaker 2: I would rather have a win.
Speaker 3: So I don't think it matters in the loan or
Speaker 3: the you know, the whole of things or the big picture.
Speaker 3: But I think it matters for the morale and the
Speaker 3: building when the guys come back in here, because now
Speaker 3: you got the young guys energetic knowing that they went
Speaker 3: out there and played well, and the older guys like ourself,
Speaker 3: we're happy and we could have a great week of
Speaker 3: probably damn it.
Speaker 2: Feel good, listen to some stuff. Just feel good, like
Speaker 2: when you go out and you get a win like that,
Speaker 2: and it's like turning the page in the book, you know,
Speaker 2: like these this group of football players is trying to
Speaker 2: tell the world we're not your your grandmama's Washington football team.
Speaker 3: You have to beat it in the stadium to really
Speaker 3: see house the Bible.
Speaker 2: It would unmatched the mayor of Maryland. You got Wiley,
Speaker 2: you got coach GiB Like, like the sideline was start
Speaker 2: studying last night. When I walked in there, it was
Speaker 2: a different type energy and I loved it. And I
Speaker 2: loved the handshake with Joe Buck. I knew you were
Speaker 2: gonna call that I did. I saw it all. Listen
Speaker 2: to me. I felt like, that's such a humanising moment
Speaker 2: because if I was in the booth Joe Buck was
Speaker 2: holding his hand out there for like at least ten seconds,
Speaker 2: I would have shook it too. I probably would have
Speaker 2: put one finger in the middle of it. At the
Speaker 2: end of the day, all I'm saying is, I was like,
Speaker 2: is he gonna shake his head like I'm sitting there
Speaker 2: watching it, and it was like, yes, he went for it.
Speaker 2: And Joe Bunk just came home. I said, Troy ain't
Speaker 2: man trying not to laugh with his red eyes over there,
Speaker 2: you know. I'm like, you know what, this is what
Speaker 2: the NFL is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point. I didn't realize we were
Speaker 1: talking about the handshake so much, but it was was.
Speaker 2: Gonna break it up.
Speaker 4: Here thinking about it because I just saw it replayed.
Speaker 3: They replayed it on one of those those deris I
Speaker 3: was watching, and I'm like, you know what, Hey, he's human.
Speaker 2: You know human, Hey, listen, I five.
Speaker 1: Hanged.
Speaker 2: That's it for me. I've been left hanging like a
Speaker 2: thousand times, so it does nothing to me. But when
Speaker 2: I saw that, I was like, you know what, that
Speaker 2: brings him more into the fan base because then we
Speaker 2: all the same and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he makes them humanize them. But I think
Speaker 1: good interviews around more. He's doing that kind of stuff,
Speaker 1: and like, you know, he's on the sideline at the
Speaker 1: end of the game, and like while they're calling the game,
Speaker 1: he's like cheering, like.
Speaker 3: Almost I will say this and I'm gonna speak in
Speaker 3: a game. Yeah, I will say this.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna speak about it and I'm not gonna say
Speaker 4: any names when.
Speaker 2: When you know, can when you walk call him out.
Speaker 3: I watch a lot of the you know, the sports
Speaker 3: you know TV shows, and they already harping on it
Speaker 3: was too much energy for for a preseason win, Like
Speaker 3: we shouldn't have been carrying on half. Why not those
Speaker 3: guys out there fighting for their livelihoods, Why not have
Speaker 3: that kind of energy. Why not be excited as fans
Speaker 3: that you have that kind of a game. It was
Speaker 3: a great game as a whole, so I was more
Speaker 3: excited for the game.
Speaker 2: Then the win was like a plus. You know, the
Speaker 2: game was great.
Speaker 3: And then it was something to get those fans that
Speaker 3: had met who haven't been here one and then the
Speaker 3: fans that really came out and they looking for, you know,
Speaker 3: a new, newer vibe and newer improve I guess you
Speaker 3: can say.
Speaker 2: Experience, experience, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So look, I understand people going to harp and that's
Speaker 3: what they get paid to do, because you know, you
Speaker 3: can't talk positive about everything. But I just feel like, man, look,
Speaker 3: when you're out there to play the game, whether it's
Speaker 3: preseason or not, you got to think a lot of
Speaker 3: those guys won't even make it on rosters' chance to
Speaker 3: play on their field.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, man, like, it's not about the team.
Speaker 1: It's not about the win. It's about the It's about
Speaker 1: Jake frob Man Lean, the two minute drive. It's about
Speaker 1: that offensive line. You love, Jake protecting the zero blitz looks.
Speaker 1: It's about Bryson Tremaine getting his first time. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like those guys might have gotten jobs
Speaker 1: off of that. Those are the That's the only time
Speaker 1: I remember I remember. I think I told you the story.
Speaker 1: You guys didn't play a lot in the fourth quarter
Speaker 1: of preseason games. I'm pretty sure. But I was in
Speaker 1: there all the time. And when you're in there and
Speaker 1: it's going well like, it feels like the super Bowl
Speaker 1: for them because you know, if it's going well like,
Speaker 1: I might have change. I have a chance, right, and
Speaker 1: so all those guys gave themselves a chance. So I
Speaker 1: have no problem with them being juice stuff. And I
Speaker 1: have no problem with the guys on the sideline being
Speaker 1: juiced because you know what it means for those guys too, right, I'm.
Speaker 2: Running up and down the South.
Speaker 3: I remember seeing a young guys out there, and I
Speaker 3: had my hot hot dog in one hand. I had
Speaker 3: myself out put on the other hand, and I was
Speaker 3: running hot knee and you know, one of our receives
Speaker 3: made a big catch because you're rooting for those guys
Speaker 3: to make those plays so we can be able to
Speaker 3: watch it on film, and that gives them a greater
Speaker 3: chance of making either our roster or someone else.
Speaker 1: Making a practice squad. Like that's those are the moments
Speaker 1: and fact the fact that everybody was watching that game,
Speaker 1: like yeah, it's on Monday night, it just helps us.
Speaker 2: So Tammy White, you got love Affair with Jake from
Speaker 2: State Form.
Speaker 1: Dude, what do you mean love affair?
Speaker 2: You have a love affair with Jakes? Play good? Yesterday
Speaker 2: I saw three players. I thought three passes was dropped
Speaker 2: that shouldn't have been dropped. Were talking about that.
Speaker 1: So you're coming at me all weird.
Speaker 2: Like I'm giving your problem because you've seen something that
Speaker 2: I didn't see.
Speaker 1: He's just got that guy as a third as your
Speaker 1: third guy, he's got some talent, he's got command of
Speaker 1: the huddle, he's calling protections. He's kind of gambler to him,
Speaker 1: little gun slinger.
Speaker 3: I feel like we almost at that state now, I'm
Speaker 3: having three solided quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: So while we're on the topic m VP of the game,
Speaker 1: let's start with that. How do you want to start
Speaker 1: us off?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I started off.
Speaker 1: I mean, well, think okay, to be fair, you were
Speaker 1: you were, you were stuff about this early. The defense
Speaker 1: did not play great. So the offense played really really well.
Speaker 2: The defense did play good. They played against a very
Speaker 2: talented offense. They played against the offense very similar to
Speaker 2: I was, well, it has no identity because the offensive coordinated.
Speaker 1: Quarterback and stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so we knew it was gonna be a game.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna go into a game with a talented
Speaker 2: team and not give up.
Speaker 1: So would you pick the MVP from the defense?
Speaker 2: I will pick it. You know, go ahead, who you
Speaker 2: want me to pick? Homi Kun? You know exapt ship
Speaker 2: Kuan Martin may what spectacular? Let me take you through
Speaker 2: this slow motion. First of all, he gets beat off
Speaker 2: the line, beat him a bass position guy, went to
Speaker 2: the pilud. He goes to the pilud. When he goes
Speaker 2: to the pilum, which Homi Kwun recided and pushes him
Speaker 2: with both hands, pushing him out of bound. Why he
Speaker 2: pushes him out of bound? The ball hits him and
Speaker 2: lands on his arm. When he lands on his arm
Speaker 2: and rolls down his like a roll up like, he
Speaker 2: literally grabs the ball, creting it with his thigh. Me
Speaker 2: not only does he create it, then he gets the
Speaker 2: ball and runs at fifty seven yard. So at the
Speaker 2: end of the day, he ran out of gas. He
Speaker 2: forgot that gas is four dollars a gallon right now,
Speaker 2: So what I'm telling you is that hell of a
Speaker 2: play by rich Homi Kwun.
Speaker 1: Is a great player, but he's your MVP. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: and play nice.
Speaker 3: But you know what, and I wanted to talk to you.
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about that off the show. I don't
Speaker 3: want to go too long on that because I was
Speaker 3: gonna ask you some questions about a couple of plays
Speaker 3: that when they was in that same stack formation he
Speaker 3: was running with, you know.
Speaker 2: A couple of times.
Speaker 4: But I would say, last night we gave it to Sam.
Speaker 1: Let's let's just talk about that before you're on, because
Speaker 1: I know what you're gonna say. I'm excited. Sam had
Speaker 1: a really good game. Yea offensive line, a good game
Speaker 1: ones versus twos of Baltimore. That's exactly what you wanted
Speaker 1: to see. And he and the moment wasn't too big
Speaker 1: for him. A couple of things with protection where you're like, man,
Speaker 1: you gotta see that, we gotta identify it. But as
Speaker 1: they start game planning, I think that'll get cleaned up.
Speaker 1: But he looked a part, looked composed, made plays off schedule,
Speaker 1: did a whole bunch of good stuff. But Tan, I'm
Speaker 1: excited to hear with you.
Speaker 3: One of the points I made was it didn't matter
Speaker 3: whether there was ones or twos against whoever you out there,
Speaker 3: yeat there you playing, you know, you gotta you gotta
Speaker 3: get it, you know, I'm gonna give it to you too,
Speaker 3: especially if you too and I'm an one.
Speaker 2: Oh look, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Tell your momm I apologize, but.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 4: So I think he played well, But who I wanted
Speaker 4: to give it to was Jake.
Speaker 2: I wanted to get it. I wanted to give it
Speaker 2: him just because, like.
Speaker 3: You know, you know, smooth just alluded to a couple
Speaker 3: of those passes was dropped that to me, I thought
Speaker 3: he put on the money. And I know how intense
Speaker 3: that moment could have been anybody for a veteran, and
Speaker 3: I done been those moments. I don't been on game
Speaker 3: winning drives where Kyle and our ear like we need
Speaker 3: to make his play ten or third, that like it's critical.
Speaker 3: So he was making play out to play, hitting the
Speaker 3: right guy given given every receiver of catchable ball like
Speaker 3: that is tough. When that's one of the first things
Speaker 3: I look at for a quarterback. You give me a
Speaker 3: catchable ball, I gotta catch it.
Speaker 2: I've seen so.
Speaker 3: Many quarterbacks in our in our lock way where the.
Speaker 2: Ball is laden high and hard. I watched that whole drive.
Speaker 1: Own the money on the money doesn't even work, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. It's non tenable. I think about
Speaker 1: Kellen Mond when we're prepping for Cleveland. He was the
Speaker 1: starter against the Jets and their offense wasn't didn't work.
Speaker 1: Then you couldn't complete.
Speaker 2: The ball against you are coming again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, then you get your third quarterback out there, you know,
Speaker 1: Jake from and he does a great job getting the ball.
Speaker 1: Needs to be again like it wasn't. And I think
Speaker 1: the other thing I wanted to call out there is
Speaker 1: you could tell that was an important win for Baltimore
Speaker 1: like they were. They were bringing all out pressure thee.
Speaker 3: Tell me that, man, I'm like, oh, we gotta eat
Speaker 3: him a ball now, yeah, you know, we gotta eat him.
Speaker 1: Tell me that's not important to them. They're going zero
Speaker 1: pressure in the second pre game against the third offensive line, Like,
Speaker 1: come on, man, that's like cheating, Like you know.
Speaker 2: What I was thinking.
Speaker 3: I was the only one that saw that. You break
Speaker 3: down stuff, man, So.
Speaker 2: No, that was brilliant. And that's how I knew they
Speaker 2: was going to the bottom of the screen. I knew
Speaker 2: it was going to the one wide receiver side hero
Speaker 2: covered why not go to the one I receive the side?
Speaker 2: But you're right they did. Won't they'd gain. But like
Speaker 2: I said, it turns the pays and put a good
Speaker 2: taste in our matic after we beat them up all week,
Speaker 2: Like you beat them up all week and then you
Speaker 2: beat them up.
Speaker 3: And that was important to me too, because just knowing that,
Speaker 3: you know, when you when when you heard everything around
Speaker 3: town or just reading to the papers, we didn't get
Speaker 3: a chance to go out there.
Speaker 2: We put it.
Speaker 3: Wasn't just from our news out less, it was from
Speaker 3: everybody saying that Washington went out there and gave it
Speaker 3: to Baltimore. And when you heard that and then you
Speaker 3: saw the game, and he was like, well, say, Baltimore
Speaker 3: just basically saved it for for the preseason game and
Speaker 3: then for us to fight and have the will to
Speaker 3: go out there and say, no, you know what, these
Speaker 3: threes who didn't get a chance to struct that stuff
Speaker 3: out there and practice, we're gonna show y'all that you know,
Speaker 3: we're the better team. So I think it was just
Speaker 3: great man all, you know, as a whole. And like
Speaker 3: I said before, whether it matters or not, and the
Speaker 3: win lost, callum, it matters when you come in this
Speaker 3: building knowing you got to go mentality wise, it gives
Speaker 3: everybody that great.
Speaker 1: So MVP So Sam Howe Jake from I think that's
Speaker 1: a great one, Kwan, because you're you're won't admit that
Speaker 1: you're wrong.
Speaker 2: I know, I just think DB's I think defense gets
Speaker 2: no love. Defense win championships, offense, sales, tickets, and the
Speaker 2: one thing about it, think about it. You look get
Speaker 2: in the stags, all the jerseys, offensive jersey. I see
Speaker 2: tear and teary, teary territory. Then I get a chase.
Speaker 2: You may sweat like we get. We don't get the
Speaker 2: love y'all get, knowing we got to do just as
Speaker 2: much as y'all is more they think about it. I'm
Speaker 2: a cornerback. They're sitting in one drive ten play drive.
Speaker 2: They'll send saying ten out there. Then they'll say nine
Speaker 2: other guys. We don't get that wrest so we have
Speaker 2: to play as that bun.
Speaker 1: Sure. Yeah, so I probably, I mean, just just to
Speaker 1: be totally unbiassed here, I probably agree with Tanner over you.
Speaker 1: Of course, I think that was a great play.
Speaker 2: Well, that was the turning point of the game. Was
Speaker 2: it the rich hermy.
Speaker 3: Kuhn was And but you know, I want to add
Speaker 3: to that, and I think Fred hit it dead on
Speaker 3: which he hadn't, you know, elaborate a little more. I
Speaker 3: think what you can take from that moment that Kwan
Speaker 3: had is that all the things I did wrong, I've
Speaker 3: been doing wrong wrong. Yeah, this is my defining moment.
Speaker 3: This is going to turn the page for me as
Speaker 3: a young He's a rookie too, so he has first
Speaker 3: he has so much time to really, you know, get better.
Speaker 3: But that can that can go a long way.
Speaker 1: So what you think of the return skills are tanna?
Speaker 1: I thought he should have made he I never.
Speaker 3: I want him to cut back because I get that
Speaker 3: far out on the side, I can't know where to go.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna start looking for backside cuts.
Speaker 1: He ran.
Speaker 2: He ran in the office of line, but he showed.
Speaker 2: He tossed him to the before he ran a.
Speaker 4: Gas his stride he was running out.
Speaker 2: I say, man, let's go. QUI got a little stride
Speaker 2: on him.
Speaker 1: He's a four to four guy. He had a forty
Speaker 1: four inch vertical so obviously very explosive dude. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so yeah, I think those are good picks. So let's say, okay,
Speaker 1: next phase m VP. Those were pretty obvious, you know,
Speaker 1: big play by Kwan quarterbacks. Obviously surprise standout from the game.
Speaker 1: What do you think, Joey slide, Joey.
Speaker 4: Kick him in the eye, Joey, I'm gonna put the
Speaker 4: pressure on Joey Slode.
Speaker 2: I wanted to make the squad.
Speaker 3: I feel like he has a big foot and it's
Speaker 3: the reason why Run likes him.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
Speaker 3: I mean everyone, you don't want to find a way
Speaker 3: to get him out of there?
Speaker 2: No, I want the guy I want.
Speaker 3: I'm glad they brought someone in here to give him
Speaker 3: a little pressure. And he was dead on the money
Speaker 3: yesterday and he made everyone on the cout.
Speaker 1: Getting like in a situation where like you couldn't have
Speaker 1: more pressure for the kicker in the preseason game, like
Speaker 1: you couldn't be higher.
Speaker 2: I had my hands. I was sitting there.
Speaker 3: I know the fans looking at me like why tendant
Speaker 3: just crossed his fingers. I crossed my fingers and had
Speaker 3: him in the air for him like, come on, Joey,
Speaker 3: bring us home.
Speaker 2: Oh no, no. They haven't lost a game since I
Speaker 2: was thirty six years old. That's how long it's been
Speaker 2: lost preseason I was thirty six years I'm forty four
Speaker 2: years old, so Yeah, you want to talk about pressure,
Speaker 2: it's a lot of pressure. I had to get mine
Speaker 2: to a group and there with the offensive line. Okay,
Speaker 2: I thought the offensive line showed up and showed out.
Speaker 2: No Lino, like a couple of guys was missing up.
Speaker 2: It was Liley was meant. So they showed they came
Speaker 2: up and they just stood firm. They stood firm, and
Speaker 2: I liked it. And I got to give this proper
Speaker 2: to Nick Gates. He's a animal. I said, you know what,
Speaker 2: we got a chance to win.
Speaker 1: We also after after Gibson's touchdown, when he smoked that
Speaker 1: that was him, that was he that, I was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I know that's a penalty, but I
Speaker 1: like but.
Speaker 2: That like Sam cos actually he was just doing that.
Speaker 2: Why everybody fighting been more perfect? Right, I'm just saying
Speaker 2: he did it in a way that it was like,
Speaker 2: forget what they hearing me and I'm going to get
Speaker 2: these I'm going to get it on because office lining
Speaker 2: don't get those shot.
Speaker 1: But it's also like he forgot that he was on
Speaker 1: TV for a second. It was like he was in
Speaker 1: practice or something, you know.
Speaker 2: But he also the guy to say we're gonna beat that,
Speaker 2: you know, what showed you what our mindset is right now?
Speaker 3: That to me, that was like, you know what, these
Speaker 3: guys are confident, these guys can play some football. They
Speaker 3: feel confident about their game. These guys over here scraping,
Speaker 3: and I'm like man, I'm.
Speaker 2: Like, man, he cares. I had to get his greeted
Speaker 2: like a four out of team.
Speaker 1: Probably he didn't get low enough.
Speaker 3: He's the officer line, but I gave with seven man,
Speaker 3: and just.
Speaker 2: To do it, he's off his a linement. Indeed, why
Speaker 2: everybody else is over there on and trying to figure
Speaker 2: out what's going on with this? Why I do it?
Speaker 1: All? Right? So Sam sam Cosby's gritty gets a seven
Speaker 1: out of ten from Tanna, four to ten from you.
Speaker 2: And I take it back a six out of and after.
Speaker 1: Tanna said he's an offensive lineman, I'll give him a
Speaker 1: seven as well. I was going to be hard on him.
Speaker 1: But just the just the confidence of it, I think
Speaker 1: is important. So surprise stand out for me. I think
Speaker 1: the other one is would be s Ricky Stromberg. I
Speaker 1: thought did a great job playing guard, right, he's been
Speaker 1: playing center this whole time. He's moved to guard. I
Speaker 1: didn't think he could do it, and now he's playing
Speaker 1: really really well, showing a nice physicality, nice quickness. Love
Speaker 1: to see that. The fact that all three levels of
Speaker 1: the offensive line played well kind of to piggyback on
Speaker 1: your boy. It was like the second group came in.
Speaker 1: There was a huge job. The group came in and
Speaker 1: like Brydon Daniels, no pressure's no sacks. For a guy
Speaker 1: that's been struggling in passport.
Speaker 2: He seems to be one of the players that play
Speaker 2: better in games in practice. We know those type of players.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he and like you like to your point
Speaker 1: in Cleveland, I thought he had a really good, really
Speaker 1: good game as well, So I definitely think like that's
Speaker 1: a big surprise. Also, you know, like the third not third,
Speaker 1: but like that bottom tier receiver group, I thought they
Speaker 1: all did pretty good on that last drive, right cats
Speaker 1: Morey had a couple of players. I know he had
Speaker 1: that one drop and I think overall pretty good. So
Speaker 1: I thought that was a pretty pretty solid group. Anybody
Speaker 1: I'm forgetting, No, no, nobody forgetting. The question is who
Speaker 1: hurt them? Sail We were talking about who helped him Sale, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll hurt We'll say that for a bubble watch which
Speaker 1: so let's let's just do this though. Yeah, let's talk
Speaker 1: about what is intriguing. So ooh intriguing. What's intriguing about
Speaker 1: this game?
Speaker 2: What was what was intriguing is I don't think I
Speaker 2: ever been around a preseason gay.
Speaker 1: With that that much.
Speaker 2: Like you can cut it with a knife, like I'm
Speaker 2: waiting for good to happen and waiting no bad to
Speaker 2: have it. And then in the back of my head,
Speaker 2: I'm like, this is a damn preseason gay. Why am
Speaker 2: I feeling this much? Tis So I think they would
Speaker 2: have well and the measuring stick, like the Raven was
Speaker 2: a great organization, good team. Ain't been to the super
Speaker 2: Bowl in a long time, but good team.
Speaker 1: Good definition.
Speaker 2: I thought it was a great measuring stick for us
Speaker 2: to find out what we are. And that's how that
Speaker 2: mattered to me. So I thought that was the best point.
Speaker 1: And I think that's the other thing. It's like everyone
Speaker 1: talks about great Baltimore's depth is I think all these
Speaker 1: offensive line and all these skill guys, but our our
Speaker 1: second offensive line, our second defensive line, our second group
Speaker 1: of linebackers, like they did a great job everybody, and
Speaker 1: I feel it feels like it showed me that this
Speaker 1: team is deeper than it's been in a long time.
Speaker 1: And that depth I think is super intriguing because you know,
Speaker 1: we're going to do roster predictions not this week but
Speaker 1: probably next week.
Speaker 2: But like it's gonna be tough, man, because you got
Speaker 2: to cut good players.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of good football players and a lot
Speaker 1: of guys that I want to keep around the organization
Speaker 1: to see develop that we won't be able to. And
Speaker 1: I think that's a really good sign for what Ron
Speaker 1: and this organization has done because you need those good
Speaker 1: deep pieces. So I think that's that's the intriguing thing.
Speaker 1: Kind of picking back on your point, I.
Speaker 3: Think triggering for me was just seeing how well coached
Speaker 3: all all the groups were. I mean, I think the
Speaker 3: coaches don't get enough credit for some of some of
Speaker 3: the things that goes on throughout the course of the game,
Speaker 3: because like we always say, as players, the players, the
Speaker 3: coaches going to coach up until the week, but on
Speaker 3: Sunday or whenever that game is played, we got to
Speaker 3: play the game. But man, when you you know, one
Speaker 3: of my biggest things was what I want to see.
Speaker 2: I want to see every group.
Speaker 3: Play like it was no drop off, and I feel
Speaker 3: like we got every group went out there and played
Speaker 3: their behinds off, And to me, I think that's what
Speaker 3: you give the credit to the coaching staff, because they
Speaker 3: had them prepared, prepared to go out there and battle
Speaker 3: and be battle tested. And whether you're young or not, hey,
Speaker 3: you got to go out here and make some plays.
Speaker 3: And so that was intriguing to me, man, just to
Speaker 3: see those guys go out there and fight in battle.
Speaker 3: I was watching carries me out and across the middle,
Speaker 3: he's bodying them balls. I say, man, you could tell
Speaker 3: a guy Ben in a moment like this before U
Speaker 3: c l A. You played in some of those, but
Speaker 3: you know I'm playing for him, you know, forget you both.
Speaker 3: So but it carried over, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: And even some of the players he made in the
Speaker 3: return game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like, here's twenty returns, these guys, twenty all
Speaker 2: returns that we picked some right guys, and these coaches
Speaker 2: are coaching a month.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 2: I always harp.
Speaker 3: On just coming out of the game in preseason games
Speaker 3: and just seeing some guys out there like, oh my god,
Speaker 3: like this is not even worth us, you know, having
Speaker 3: around him.
Speaker 2: But you know, you only can have what you got got, yep.
Speaker 3: And so I just feel like the coaches went out
Speaker 3: there and got the right players, whether they're going to
Speaker 3: make the squad or not, and they coaching a month.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I love that. Another one that I thought
Speaker 1: was intriguing was Trent Scott, the tackle number seventy three,
Speaker 1: who comes in when Wiley goes out, Yeah, and plays
Speaker 1: a ton of minutes and a guy who's been very
Speaker 1: consistent in practice, not bad, not good, kind of right
Speaker 1: in the middle, and that's that's what he played at
Speaker 1: And like, does he make you say we got to
Speaker 1: keep ten offensive linemen?
Speaker 2: No, I think you have to keep maybe a nigsha
Speaker 2: Off is alive because you're you're uncertain about certain depth there. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so you might have to. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But so what I'm saying is, like, you know, I
Speaker 1: had him at nine for a long time this offseason,
Speaker 1: and now is at ten. De weekle keep six receivers
Speaker 1: because I kind of was thinking you'd keep a seventh receiver,
Speaker 1: but we'll see.
Speaker 2: So all right, that.
Speaker 1: Kind of leads us very nicely into our preseason Game
Speaker 1: three preview against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Speaker 2: Beys.
Speaker 1: So this is gonna be tough. Third preseason game. What
Speaker 1: do we expect from this game?
Speaker 3: Well, all those guys on the bubble, all those guys
Speaker 3: who's trying to make the squad, they're gonna be playing.
Speaker 2: It's their tive.
Speaker 3: It's their time to shine, I mean, and that's something
Speaker 3: that now you're going to see.
Speaker 2: You know how you how what what the scale is?
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? How can you perform when
Speaker 2: it's on you? Now?
Speaker 4: The one no one here to start this game off?
Speaker 2: Jake? You got it?
Speaker 3: Now, you the quarterback, go out here and stretch because
Speaker 3: we already know who our two quarterbacks are.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? So, Jake, you got to
Speaker 2: run this ship.
Speaker 3: Now you have to show these You got to make
Speaker 3: sure that you're leading that hud, that you have command.
Speaker 2: And who's gonna go out there and make plays for sure?
Speaker 3: Who's going to block from who's gonna do all things?
Speaker 3: And I know we're talking offense. I like to talk
Speaker 3: offense a lot of course out here, y'allas. You're gonna
Speaker 3: talk about Forbes, you're talk about it.
Speaker 4: That you have your way with them, But nah, I
Speaker 4: just offensively man.
Speaker 3: You you really want to see can they lead if
Speaker 3: they're in that spot to lead, you know.
Speaker 2: And I think it's the ultimate interview because what you
Speaker 2: have to understand is you might not make this scene.
Speaker 2: There's thirty other teams looking at this film. So it's
Speaker 2: the ultimate interview. And for some players, I hate to
Speaker 2: say this, it'll be the last time they put scrap
Speaker 2: on clicks on the professional field. And for some their
Speaker 2: journey just beginning. They just don't know it. So it's
Speaker 2: the ultimate interview. So it don't matter how many reps
Speaker 2: you get, It don't matter what goes on. I would
Speaker 2: tell them go out there and have some fun, enjoy
Speaker 2: the moment, and don't let the moment be too big
Speaker 2: for you. And if you a guy in the first
Speaker 2: two games that didn't put your best foot forward, here
Speaker 2: go your chance to leave a good taste.
Speaker 1: And some coaches, that's a good question, if you ever
Speaker 1: seen anybody make the team on for you have been
Speaker 1: the fourth preseason game?
Speaker 2: Oh yes, definitely totally.
Speaker 1: Half.
Speaker 2: Antonio Pierce, my rookie year, undrafted from the lambbacker end
Speaker 2: up going winning the Super Bowl with New York Giants,
Speaker 2: had a ten to twelve year career, literally had like
Speaker 2: nineteen tackles in our fourth.
Speaker 1: President play well with prior to that, but he was
Speaker 1: never did he show signs of it before.
Speaker 2: That's why. The thing about it was with ap was
Speaker 2: he was so good in the damn game that you
Speaker 2: wonder where was this sy practice because he was a brainiac.
Speaker 2: The thing about it is so once he gets in
Speaker 2: the game, everything starts to click and slow down for him,
Speaker 2: and he would just go out there and it was
Speaker 2: fourteen tackles, sixteen tackles like this game. So he can
Speaker 2: just game game game. And I think the coaches realized
Speaker 2: through watching his game for him, he's just better in
Speaker 2: the game. And yes, not only did he make the team,
Speaker 2: he made a career for himself.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I guess what I was asking more is
Speaker 1: ever have ever seen anybody's been very quiet through training
Speaker 1: camp and all of a sudden in that last game,
Speaker 1: they have a great game and it's like, oh gosh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna We're gonna make the team, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying.
Speaker 4: So I had a receiver and you remember him, t Austin.
Speaker 4: Yeah Austin.
Speaker 3: I mean you saw flashes like he was very you know,
Speaker 3: you know, he had one of those deceptive speeds, Uh,
Speaker 3: he played with your boy, DeShawn Jackson. He was like
Speaker 3: the third receiver on his college team.
Speaker 2: The way DJA was there last night.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and and so they.
Speaker 1: Went to school together, Bingo probably.
Speaker 3: So you just saw you saw, you saw bits you know,
Speaker 3: up from every now and then flashed and when he
Speaker 3: got a chance to get in the game by himself,
Speaker 3: ball he balled, and guess what, he made the squad.
Speaker 3: And I was and I was root for him because
Speaker 3: I'm like, man, you got it, bro, And you know,
Speaker 3: he's one of those guys, very quiet, one saying much.
Speaker 3: He just wanted the ball and he got his shot.
Speaker 2: I think I think the number one player that you
Speaker 2: could say the preseason changed his life probably was at
Speaker 2: New York Giant with Victor Cruz.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he but he was balling the whole preseason though.
Speaker 2: But it was the preset that game. They he just
Speaker 2: went out there and dog guess yes he was.
Speaker 1: We played him New York Jets. Yeah, he was with
Speaker 1: the Jets. We went up there and he had like
Speaker 1: an eighty yard touchdown reception. But that was the second
Speaker 1: preseason game. But the whole preseason game he played. Really
Speaker 1: the guy that I was thinking of was was Marcus White?
Speaker 1: You were with him. I don't know if you remember him.
Speaker 1: You probably don't even remember him, but he had two
Speaker 1: sacks and a forced fumble in the third preseason game,
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, this guy is a good player,
Speaker 1: you know, and he had been kind of struggling through yep,
Speaker 1: So I do think you can do it. It's very rare.
Speaker 1: Is there anybody that you think on this team could
Speaker 1: come out and ball in that third preseason game and
Speaker 1: say like, I deserve a spot on the roster.
Speaker 2: And there had to be somebody stowed as slow.
Speaker 1: Right, Well, I mean so like I think for I
Speaker 1: was thinking like Kaz Allen, you know, a guy who's
Speaker 1: he's been building, you know, and but like if he
Speaker 1: has like a huge return or he has a big,
Speaker 1: you know, explosive play, all of a sudden, you say,
Speaker 1: well we can't get him to practice squad. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: got to hit him on.
Speaker 2: The thing for a return in this game. Because just
Speaker 2: knowing that now.
Speaker 3: All these guys are basically the guys that probably one
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, probably fighting for the job
Speaker 3: just like him.
Speaker 2: And he was known for rue of them things.
Speaker 4: When you see la and doing his thing so.
Speaker 2: This is his moment.
Speaker 3: It's you know, I wanted to and I never, like
Speaker 3: you said, you've been in this moment. Someone asks you
Speaker 3: did leading up to that last game back when we
Speaker 3: was playing was four Yeah, did you prepare like this
Speaker 3: was like a gameless season football game for you, like
Speaker 3: you at UCLA or you you were you in the
Speaker 3: regular season of the NFL or whatever. Did you prepare saying, Hey,
Speaker 3: this is I'm going four quarters. I got to go
Speaker 3: out here and do my thing.
Speaker 1: Like absolutely, so like the pre each preseason game for me,
Speaker 1: like if I got five plays, ten plays, that was
Speaker 1: like my super Bowl. Yeah, like I think I told you,
Speaker 1: like when my first game, like I was absolutely out
Speaker 1: of my mind and then we got to play. I
Speaker 1: remember my first year we played against Arizona and they
Speaker 1: played their starters the whole first half in the fourth
Speaker 1: prising game was ever mad at them. So I got
Speaker 1: to play against like Darnel Dockett all these really good players,
Speaker 1: you know, But yeah, you're prepping like I gotta make
Speaker 1: it go and like for yeah, the game plan wasn't
Speaker 1: hard because it's just basic stuff really, but yeah, you
Speaker 1: were like and I got a funny story about that
Speaker 1: so I'm getting ready to play in the fourth Priests game.
Speaker 1: I'm walking with Darrell Young, remember, yeah, Yeah, and you
Speaker 1: guys like, oh, I gotta go watch some film and
Speaker 1: I'm like, what are you gonna watch it? Because I'd
Speaker 1: done all my stuff earlier in the weecause I just want
Speaker 1: to check a couple of things real quick.
Speaker 2: And I was like cool.
Speaker 1: So I was waiting for him and he walks in
Speaker 1: the running back room and the coaches in there, and
Speaker 1: he goes, what are you doing. He's like, I was
Speaker 1: going to watch some film of the of the Cardinals.
Speaker 1: He goes, Nah, you're not, And I was like, and
Speaker 1: he was like, why, I gotta watch film of whoever?
Speaker 1: We're playing week one of Houston. So you guys got
Speaker 1: to get out of here.
Speaker 2: And we were like all right.
Speaker 1: So just showed you like everybody in the organization had
Speaker 1: kind of like move move, Yeah, they're turning the page,
Speaker 1: but you still got this huge event happening. And it
Speaker 1: was always super super weird because you're in like this
Speaker 1: high stress environment. But yeah, So I think kas Allen's
Speaker 1: the guy. I think all those young receivers, I.
Speaker 2: Think Curtis Hodges, yeah, because he just needs some good
Speaker 2: to have if you.
Speaker 1: Know what kind in this game, this would be perfectame.
Speaker 1: He's going to play the whole time. Yeah, right, you're
Speaker 1: gonna play the whole time. Yeah, find some confidence, find
Speaker 1: a rhythm, because he showed I thought he blocked better
Speaker 1: in this last game than he's blocked the Power couple
Speaker 1: of weeks. But yeah, I think that is a great
Speaker 1: one because he's because he's flashed stuff at times, but
Speaker 1: he has not been as consistent as he was in
Speaker 1: the O T as can.
Speaker 3: You put He looked a little gass feel when you
Speaker 3: gassed you.
Speaker 2: He ain't been getting out of rep to practice.
Speaker 1: But I wanted to him just be like a little
Speaker 1: like me, just a little bit.
Speaker 2: More emotion Like I want to see you emotionally connected
Speaker 2: to the game, like he seems like he's just not emotionally.
Speaker 1: And I think that's right. So I'd say that's a
Speaker 1: really good one. Cas is a good one. I think
Speaker 1: all those young receivers, like for me, I would have
Speaker 1: said Bryson Tremaine because I like Bryson Tremaine. At Brady nine,
Speaker 1: I thought he had a pretty good game this last game.
Speaker 1: He did, but in a bigger role, like what does
Speaker 1: that look like what it makes make enough?
Speaker 3: He could be the one that he could be that
Speaker 3: one that you'd be like, oh, we got a chance.
Speaker 2: And he's been even a.
Speaker 3: Shadow every because I told you I've been watching this
Speaker 3: dude in practice. He's the first man on the field
Speaker 3: doing some kind of exercise getting his legs. You know
Speaker 3: that he got up, So don't be surprised that he
Speaker 3: the one that goes out there and say, hey, they
Speaker 3: don't they don't mess up and gave me a chance to.
Speaker 2: Play the whole game. Every year we have two or
Speaker 2: three guys on the roster that nobody picked to be on. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this last game, open eyes.
Speaker 1: And we talked about this earlier, is like he's good
Speaker 1: at gunner. He had some good reps against Double Ice,
Speaker 1: which is really hard to do, so good for him.
Speaker 1: So maybe he's kind of maybe I will see and
Speaker 1: and we were rooting for all these guys, but he's
Speaker 1: the guy that I would call out. How about in
Speaker 1: the defensive back room?
Speaker 2: Fred?
Speaker 1: And also let's talk about that real quick for our
Speaker 1: guy Wilds that touchdown man, Yeah, that boss out, Like
Speaker 1: I don't know the rule anymore, but like that seemed
Speaker 1: like he punched the ball out and it was it
Speaker 1: was loosing.
Speaker 2: No love for the weary of cares about dB, but
Speaker 2: I just think wild Goods have been one of those guys.
Speaker 2: He's been been an uphill battle. But they also gave
Speaker 2: him a chance. They gave him a true chance. And
Speaker 2: I just think plays just one made like he had
Speaker 2: chances to make plays that he just didn't make you
Speaker 2: feel like he's right there. He just got us.
Speaker 1: So let's right, it's Forbes, Saint Juice, Uh right, those
Speaker 1: are three, and I'd say Danny Johnson and John but
Speaker 1: he's got the shoulder, so maybe someone seeking Holmes most definitely.
Speaker 1: So five guys right there, and then Kwan is the
Speaker 1: backup Nickel.
Speaker 2: Well, Kwan is automatically in it. He's the fourth guy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so six right, there's six right there. So I think
Speaker 2: with the fact that Kuwan is a hybrid, meaning he
Speaker 2: asked to the safety room and he asked to the
Speaker 2: cornerback room, the thing about it is, then you go
Speaker 2: to the safety room, you got Defro, you got Cam,
Speaker 2: and you got Percy Butler, and you got what's his name,
Speaker 2: you got Jamie Reeves. Like they go literally ten guys
Speaker 2: in the room. Right, Like we said before, we're gonna
Speaker 2: cut some good plays. So I think, I think good problem.
Speaker 1: So I think for dB it's gonna be really hard
Speaker 1: for anybody to make it because that top group is
Speaker 1: so established. But you know, with the receiver, one guy
Speaker 1: sneaks in, I think another group to keep an eye
Speaker 1: on his defensive line. You gonna cut some good players.
Speaker 1: But can andre Jones say I deserve to be the
Speaker 1: time they see some andre Jones?
Speaker 2: You know how the substitute teacher come in and call
Speaker 2: everybody the name andre Jones raised his hand, j Jones here.
Speaker 1: And he's he's and he doesn't really fit this screw
Speaker 1: because he's had a good camp. But like I guess
Speaker 1: what can he put the stamp on it and say,
Speaker 1: can you make.
Speaker 2: The fifty three in the rotation? You got Casey two heel,
Speaker 2: you got j Smith, Hyphen Williams.
Speaker 1: Right, so you got the four guys up right, so
Speaker 1: obviously the big four right, and then you got Casey
Speaker 1: James that's six, You got Ridgeway, you got Big Phil
Speaker 1: that's eight. And then f a Obata is for sure.
Speaker 2: Making the most definitely because he could play everything online.
Speaker 1: And then you've got that that ten spot and diggo
Speaker 1: Jones name all over k Henry.
Speaker 2: Well, the THG think about it is he's flash more
Speaker 2: than kJ Henry, I think, And I think you got
Speaker 2: a chance to put kJ Henry on your practice squow
Speaker 2: w Jones has flashed too much.
Speaker 1: He won't be on your place flashing practice. He hasn't
Speaker 1: really like you know, hasn't had a ton of plays
Speaker 1: in the preseason. He's so again like maybe he comes
Speaker 1: out and he has two sacks and a force fumble
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, well, now we can't get him out.
Speaker 3: So will we use him just predominantly on past rushing
Speaker 3: or I.
Speaker 1: Think he does a good job. I think with the run.
Speaker 1: Remember he's a guy that played like stand up sam linebacker. Yes,
Speaker 1: and so this is the first time he put his
Speaker 1: hand in the dirt, right, So I think that's something. Again,
Speaker 1: he's the guy that I just have got circled.
Speaker 2: On my mind. He's that guy. And don't forget he
Speaker 2: played what six years of college. Yeah, he's a grown man.
Speaker 2: He's ready to go right down.
Speaker 1: And I would say, I know everyone keeps asking about
Speaker 1: offensive line. I feel like offensive line is like.
Speaker 2: Set, there's low, there's low hanging fruit.
Speaker 1: But it's like, but I feel like we know who
Speaker 1: those guys are going to be, and I don't know
Speaker 1: how we get around it. It's the starting five, it's Lucas,
Speaker 1: it's Paul, it's Ricky Stromberg. And then I think Brandon
Speaker 1: Daniels makes it and I think he's playing better. So
Speaker 1: I think that's Yourn right there.
Speaker 2: And I don't know.
Speaker 1: Obviously you got to cut some good football players. Question
Speaker 1: is do you keep Larson maybe better?
Speaker 2: And what we're not breaking in, we're just talking about it.
Speaker 2: I own that you don't know who is gonna get cut? Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it was somebody presents a situation you just don't know.
Speaker 1: But I think the I think the interesting battle on
Speaker 1: the offensive line. It's not for the fifty three necessarily,
Speaker 1: But who are those four practice squad guys that you
Speaker 1: keep out of that group? Is it Montero? Is it
Speaker 1: loofen Baum? Is it you know, Smith Jones who had
Speaker 1: a good job. Is it Mason Brooks, like two says
Speaker 1: I deserve to be on the practice squad. I think
Speaker 1: that's where this game maybe it's your final evaluation point.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm totally with you on that, all right.
Speaker 1: So anything else we got to talk about in the
Speaker 1: in the game that you're thinking about for.
Speaker 2: The for that last preseason game, I just want to say,
Speaker 2: you know, hell of a handshake, batter on you know,
Speaker 2: you know, at the end of the day, it's the
Speaker 2: small things. It's it's a little thing in life. And
Speaker 2: I just think last night, I know it was a
Speaker 2: preseason game, but Washington at different Washington put people on
Speaker 2: notice because everybody been down on us. We ain't this,
Speaker 2: we ain't that. I think Sam how garnish some national
Speaker 2: respect last night?
Speaker 1: I mean, okay, that's one thing I want to ask
Speaker 1: you again, like this is a safe space going against
Speaker 1: the two?
Speaker 2: Is it safe?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I cried last week I left.
Speaker 1: So going against the twos? Like, what can you take
Speaker 1: away from that?
Speaker 2: Performance? Can take everything away. It's football, it's football being played.
Speaker 2: Show me how you play it. That's all I care about.
Speaker 2: And I've been telling you since I saw Sam. He
Speaker 2: had some Tony romo. He got this gamer in him
Speaker 2: and he's never like they interviewed him after the game.
Speaker 2: I love he just he's monotone. He's never too high,
Speaker 2: he's never too love. How you feel about almost two hundred.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it was good. I'm gonna do it next week.
Speaker 2: Like he don't. He doesn't go with the emotional. I
Speaker 2: think that's very important for a quarterback. Not A question
Speaker 2: is as a fan base, as an organization, do we
Speaker 2: have the patience to just to let him grow? Let
Speaker 2: the plant grow.
Speaker 3: You don't have to, I think, you know, we always
Speaker 3: we've been looking too long and it ain't none out there.
