0:18
[SPEAKER_01]: football, diving a week one, we wouldn't feel right if we didn't start this podcast off talking about the late Mike the Tla, who would have celebrated his birthday yesterday, the news over the weekend of his passing, you know, hit us really, really hard.
0:38
[SPEAKER_01]: When you, when you just an
0:42
[SPEAKER_01]: such a pivotal person he was in the Louisiana sports landscape radio, his draft guys, he's been able to come on our podcast twice and was just such a, a levelable human.
0:57
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that's the thing that sticks with me the most is all the,
1:12
[SPEAKER_01]: such a fan of just never gatekeeping, wanting the wanting to see young people who are invested in sports, the saints just wishing in the best he loved, he loved our show and it just, it hit me hard, you know, and so I wanted to start off with that.
1:33
[SPEAKER_01]: When I would post our social media clips on Instagram, he was always liking them and sometimes he'd send a message
1:40
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the type of person that he was.
1:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know the entire, you know, state of Louisiana New Orleans is feeling into passing and it just shows you how short life is.
1:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, uh, rest in power to Mike and, and we just want to start off with that.
1:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'll let you, you know, I wouldn't be want to add all the work.
1:59
[SPEAKER_02]: No, man, well said, burn life.
2:00
[SPEAKER_02]: That hit me, it's weird with people when people pass,
2:06
[SPEAKER_02]: like my deteriorate, you know, Chris Wesley a couple years ago, just people who you get to know
2:16
[SPEAKER_02]: through their voice, yes, through radio, through podcasts, through TV or whatever, and you know, it's weird because okay, you don't know them, like, you know them like a personal relationship, but you get to know them over time.
2:31
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, Mike and T, I've been listening, I mean, as long as I can remember, like, he's just been on a radio, but you'd think it's thankful, ball, you'd think, like, to tell you,
2:39
[SPEAKER_02]: on the air when he got to see with the Saints make a move before before we could go to podcast and stuff like that where everybody had to take back in the day, there's only a few places we could go to airboat like the Saints and somebody with in-depth knowledge on the Saints and he was that guy.
2:55
[SPEAKER_02]: He was that guy, you wanted to say, oh, well, this guy we, who do we sign in the, who do we draft in the sixth round, you know, it's because we were Mike the two, you got to sell five, you know, Sam.
3:04
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's who he was.
3:05
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was just a pleasure.
3:06
[SPEAKER_02]: They just to get to know him.
3:08
[SPEAKER_02]: Finally, these past couple years, coming on a pie case, just being so friendly with us, you know, just bringing so much heat to our pie case and stuff like that.
3:17
[SPEAKER_02]: And it just.
3:19
[SPEAKER_02]: It just hit, it hit me different when I saw that, you know, so recipes to him, your prayers out to his family, and stuff like that.
3:26
[SPEAKER_02]: But as you can't, I mean, the most beautiful thing is, you'll be hard personifying anybody to say something about my, to tell anybody, anybody, anybody.
3:36
[SPEAKER_02]: That's a beautiful, like if you leave, that's the kind of mark you want to leave, you know what I'm saying?
3:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
3:44
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, think we've, we've hit on it and said it all, but, you know, I remember the first time I went to the combat, so not this year, but last year and, you know, all the content I posted, you know, after that, I think that was like the, what the Jalen Walker draft and what have you.
4:02
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I remember after the combat like Mike reaching out, you know, reaching out to me personally, it was like, hey, I want you like, you know, you did a great job, I want you to come on WL talk to me like that like that's who he was like, I mean, like that's who he was just like.
4:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm reaching out to me, like, I'm, you know, we just these, you know, these podcasts, those who, you know, it meant a lot.
4:28
[SPEAKER_01]: And I, you know, I sent you a text message exchange from when he, you know, he said something in our, you know, he sent a message DM and Instagram just telling us to keep going and keep, you know, keeping up the great work.
4:41
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just, that's what he was, and so resting power to him, and this, this, this Saint season is not, it's gonna feel, it's gonna feel different without him adding his expertise and his, his occasion knowledge.
4:46
[SPEAKER_01]: But let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's,
4:58
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, tough segue, but I feel like this, like let's do, let's do Mike Proud as he wants us to do for this entire season.
5:07
[SPEAKER_01]: It is now football season.
5:10
[SPEAKER_01]: In case you have not watched us before, we all are in a same spot party podcast.
5:14
[SPEAKER_01]: We have been covering the Saints in six plus six plus years in various capacities.
5:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We've been at combat.
5:19
[SPEAKER_01]: We've been at pro days.
5:21
[SPEAKER_01]: We've been at senior bulls.
5:23
[SPEAKER_01]: And it is finally time to talk about real,
5:27
[SPEAKER_01]: actual football.
5:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Real football.
5:29
[SPEAKER_01]: This is not.
5:30
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not talking about.
5:31
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not talking about practices.
5:32
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not talking about training.
5:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Can't we talking about ball.
5:36
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of saints.
5:38
[SPEAKER_01]: None of that.
5:39
[SPEAKER_01]: None of that.
5:39
[SPEAKER_01]: None of that.
5:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Real and Saint Paul.
5:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Bravo to Detroit to face the Detroit line.
5:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And we in week one, believe I don't know if it still is, but I believe the point spread when I looked early in the week was
5:57
[SPEAKER_01]: a lot of things to talk about in this game.
5:59
[SPEAKER_01]: We have a little different format that we're gonna try to do for our preview pods, just to regards to match up to the week, X-factors of the week.
6:08
[SPEAKER_01]: We haven't done that before in previous years.
6:10
[SPEAKER_01]: We wanna change it up a little bit.
6:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I a little bit more to it.
6:12
[SPEAKER_01]: We should be hopefully live streaming on YouTube, live streaming on Twitch.
6:18
[SPEAKER_01]: And then maybe also if I did it correctly, live streaming on Instagram as well.
6:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't know if you're interested in it.
6:25
[SPEAKER_01]: that's actually happening or not.
6:27
[SPEAKER_01]: But all that to say, we are here.
6:31
[SPEAKER_01]: It is football.
6:32
[SPEAKER_01]: It is football time.
6:34
[SPEAKER_01]: And it is I'm excited that for the first game, we get a test.
6:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Like this game, and I know it's early as a week one and you can't re- overreact to week one so much.
6:47
[SPEAKER_01]: But we get to see the Saints with Tyler Schuck is quarterback going against their toughest opponent
6:56
[SPEAKER_01]: and the 10 games in the, you know, including the team games that he played last season, the Detroit line just in terms of just talent wise, coaching wise, is the toughest opponent that the Saints have faced under Tyler Schuck and it is going to be exciting to see where this team is in their rebuild and in their development.
7:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Going into week one also should quickly mention just little same things to tighten up the same's wave Devon Neil and Michael Helman from you Devon Neil was on a I are the way if they wave both with entry settlement and then they re Restructure the deal of guard sees a release and who's other player?
7:36
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm blanking on the channel
7:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, Devon got y'all early today.
7:40
[SPEAKER_01]: They need to do that to get caught compliant.
7:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Believe they were a little over 6 million over the cap.
7:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And they need to become caught compliant by this week.
7:48
[SPEAKER_01]: As in the 53, the top 53 salaries are now accounting.
7:53
[SPEAKER_01]: And so they re-structed their deal.
7:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So just a little quick, don't that?
7:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Anything you want to add on Neil Hellman or the restructures before we get into the Lions game?
8:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Nah, I mean, you know, I mean, never knew, you know, kind of, I guess it's a sub to see him go, but, you know, yeah, I'm sad, like, there's what it is.
8:15
[SPEAKER_02]: There's what it is, you know, set out to never knew.
8:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Hope he has a good career, whether to net no, they also had it, Central Tilman, they did try to fly.
8:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Try to fly.
8:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Kind of a little slow.
8:28
[SPEAKER_02]: notable thing to keep eye on the kids they want to add somebody you know right before maybe Friday or something like that they want to bring up another wire receiver because the only only carrying only carrying for right now right on the 53 yeah so it's a lot of a bayley brown and it's I would think they would probably bring up Kevin Austin Jr before like I said yeah but it's just something notable to you know keeping it back in mind

9:37
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to do defense too, but it's so it takes me like two days just to do the offense at least.
9:43
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm a try to do both, but at least you're going to get the office and break down on the Saints and it's also different from the also talk to know what you see in what that bread is daily beef.

[SPEAKER_01]: We have 60 who have RS, oh, actually it's 58 because someone RSP for four tickets and then said that only two people are two of the four coming.
10:45
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're at 58 people.

11:13
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you, like, there's nothing like our community, especially during the regular season.
11:18
[SPEAKER_01]: But let's talk about this game.
11:20
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll talk about this game.
11:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's talk about this game.
11:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Where do you want to, I could put a graphic up, kind of just like a general graphic, but like where did you want to start with this Saint Lion's Matchup?
11:34
[SPEAKER_02]: Just stepping away from the matchup, just looking at where these both teams are.
11:39
[SPEAKER_02]: You got two teams, and the Detroit Lions have kind of been my model.
11:45
[SPEAKER_02]: a little bit for like where the saints were when they hired killing more.
11:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, but obviously different franchises, you know, the saints want to support all the stuff like that.
11:54
[SPEAKER_02]: But two, you know, you know, kind of older cities, smaller cities that's kind of, you know, rebound kind of fledgling cities, black cities, you know what I'm saying?
12:08
[SPEAKER_02]: And it just remind me a lot of each other.
12:10
[SPEAKER_02]: And the teams remind me I'd be a lot of each other, the fans, the fans like super passionate fan bases.
12:16
[SPEAKER_02]: And just the way the Dan Campbell era, you know, went, like I kind of hoped or like envisioned hopefully killing taking that path where, you know, Dan Campbell's first year, it was a struggle.
12:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Like he was a struggle, it weren't very talented, but you could see something, there was a little,
12:35
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, something that you could put your finger on.
12:37
[SPEAKER_02]: And then the next year, I think they wanted like eight or nine games or something like that.
12:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Mr. Plale's.
12:42
[SPEAKER_02]: But then it was, but it was a little more confirming that next year, like, OK, once they get this tablet right, all that stuff, then they're going to then the next year they're in the playoffs, they beaten they whipping their body ass, all that.
12:55
[SPEAKER_02]: So the Saints is like kind of where they are, like in this second year, to have hoping that we start seeing,
13:02
[SPEAKER_02]: Not the finished product, but we start seeing that like okay, like they just they're almost there.
13:08
[SPEAKER_02]: They are almost there.
13:09
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's going to be interesting to we didn't we didn't match up and the kind of as the lines is like a measuring stick.
13:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, when the saints are right now even though it's week one and all that stuff.
13:21
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't care.
13:22
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a test.
13:22
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a chance for the saints.
13:25
[SPEAKER_02]: really make a statement, bro.
13:26
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
13:27
[SPEAKER_02]: Really make a statement.
13:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Nobody believes you're going to win.
13:30
[SPEAKER_02]: The egg is done to believe you.
13:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Saints fans believe it.
13:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, but outside of this, the very top bit, you know what I'm saying?
13:37
[SPEAKER_02]: So, go show us.
13:39
[SPEAKER_02]: Go out there and show us some.
13:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I you said it so well, and my thing for for this Saint's team in 2006 is that.
13:49
[SPEAKER_01]: if they want to get to, if you go back and listen to our, like our wind total record prediction episode, I had them winning nine games, you had them winning 10 games, which I think we did a very like fair, like very like reasonable like look of the season, not to homerish all that.
14:08
[SPEAKER_01]: But for them to get to that eight or 10 number, they're gonna have to be good teams.
14:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Anya, starts, it starts, and we won.
14:17
[SPEAKER_01]: So one, some of the same media acts a great question.
14:20
[SPEAKER_01]: think it was to Kellen today and it was a fantastic question I've been thinking about just to regards to this is going to be the most hostile environment shook as played in at, you know, in the NFL going to the Detroit crowd noise that fans going to be fool-throat, proddled, all that, but let's look, like just look at the breakdown of the alliance.
14:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, Dan Campbell, their head coach 48 36 in one.
14:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
14:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey.
14:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm he has like the weird thing where some people like can't stand him, but I don't know man like he's he's a guy damn good coach.
14:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
14:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what to tell me.
14:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what to tell me.
14:55
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what to tell me.
14:56
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a good answer.
14:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Good answer.
14:58
[SPEAKER_01]: They have a new offensive coordinator Drew Pet Singh and this is interesting to me.
15:02
[SPEAKER_01]: because it will get into the nitty-gritty, but I'm bringing it up right now as we're going down this kind of breakdown.
15:08
[SPEAKER_01]: The Saints faced the Arizona Cardinals last week and week one when Drew Pat Seen was the Arizona Cardinals, often to court the other one.
15:15
[SPEAKER_01]: So they're facing him again in a week one this year.
15:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Also
15:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Shout out to a segment bloom, if you don't know a segment, he's like a fantasy football legend, actually lives in New Orleans, but as a Steelers fan, but loves the city, and he tweeted a very interesting like, and coaching like, when lost things are just very interesting to me, that basically Brandon Staley is like,
15:42
[SPEAKER_01]: one and four against Drew Petsing often says that he's so that's when he was chargers at coach.
15:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe some time when he was around a little bit, but like that just
15:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Hashtag noticing like something that keep your keep your eye out on Calvin Shepard is the second year defensive coordinator.
16:00
[SPEAKER_01]: He replaced Aaron Glenn last season The blinds defense had you know, it's kind of up and down But he is a he's a newer DC and then let's you let us you land back
16:12
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right, he sure is, or sure was.
16:15
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was looking at these stats when you posted them.
16:18
[SPEAKER_01]: The lions are first in points per game at home, which is insane.
16:23
[SPEAKER_01]: The lions, like these modern day lions, especially under Ben Johnson and Dan Campbell era, there was a lot, like they reminded me, so not 100%, but there are a lot of 2011, like Saints offense, and just in terms of how they were, like how they were
16:41
[SPEAKER_01]: fourth and points per game 28.3 points per game, seventh and points per drive, eighth and EPA per game, and then you also noted that they use a lot of 11 personnel and 12 personnel.
16:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So 11 personnel mean there's one running back one tied in on the field and usually that means that the offense also has to just point three right receivers, and then 12 personnel one running
17:07
[SPEAKER_01]: And then six in rushing over 20 plus yards and just explosive plays with junior gifts.
17:13
[SPEAKER_01]: So like where do you want to?
17:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Brandon Staley are you a man or you are now because he going to have his work cut out for him that I was something wolf cut out number one like these obviously these are twenty twenty five statistics because we didn't play the game yet so but first in the league in points for game
17:38
[SPEAKER_02]: at home.
17:40
[SPEAKER_02]: That's like St. Stats.
17:41
[SPEAKER_02]: That's old, I guess, 2011, Saints, 2009, Saints, when you come in and don't, you leave and I'll just say it.
17:49
[SPEAKER_02]: You just leave and say it, where your head going to be down, because we're going to put that belt to your ass.
17:54
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I'm saying?
17:54
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's how that's how they've been in the Detroit Lion Stadium since they've been playing.
18:00
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know, they're going to come out.
18:02
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a tall
18:08
[SPEAKER_02]: from a talent standpoint, from the same defense, but just from just a matchup, like it's a matchup against any defense, any defense.
18:17
[SPEAKER_02]: If you got a really good defense, that's a whole lot of matchup, because you have two really, really, really good rubber seams.
18:24
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna say Brown who wins on all routes at every level.
18:30
[SPEAKER_02]: But most majority lines up in the slide, but he's more than just a slide player.
18:33
[SPEAKER_02]: He can do everything.
18:34
[SPEAKER_02]: You got J. Moe Wilson, who has come along and become like a all around where I receive when he's matured.
18:41
[SPEAKER_02]: He's concerned anywhere from the field.
18:43
[SPEAKER_02]: So explosive.
18:45
[SPEAKER_02]: So Jamal Gibbs, obviously, like the most explosive running back in the leagues, probably his him and B. John Robinson, that's it.
18:51
[SPEAKER_02]: Like in that score, it could score anywhere.
18:54
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you got, you know, tight in.
18:57
[SPEAKER_02]: What's the name of the border with week one and he missed down there all the camp, bro, missed down we got to camp couldn't be good to go good to go he can't be good to go You know, they got Isaac Tesla they got
19:09
[SPEAKER_02]: that the running back depth behind gives isn't great, but it doesn't matter, like those players that I named brought us enough, like that's enough to do it.
19:17
[SPEAKER_02]: And they got to, you know, like, offensively, if even last year, I still feel like we cared a lot over from the Ben Johnson stuff.
19:25
[SPEAKER_02]: They did.
19:26
[SPEAKER_02]: This is just a lot of stuff that's in there.
19:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Lies, DM made it, they do.
19:29
[SPEAKER_02]: And look, Jared golf look, people,
19:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Like the shit on gay dog, go off a line, I'd get it.
19:35
[SPEAKER_02]: That's fine, but it's a good quarterback, man.
19:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I don't know what to say, where he measures in the top 10 to 15.
19:42
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't care, he's, he's, he's, he they top 15 quarterback period.
19:47
[SPEAKER_02]: And he's like, that's not, he's, that's not debatable.
19:49
[SPEAKER_02]: That's not debatable.
19:50
[SPEAKER_02]: He's a pocket pass that a slice up.
19:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, he might have a rough game game there.
19:54
[SPEAKER_02]: And you just got to pray that this is one of his rough games.
19:58
[SPEAKER_01]: You do the key one of the keys for this game and we'll get into like the the keys keys and things like that, but a big reason I think the lines went out and got drew pet scene as for the office of coordinators.
20:10
[SPEAKER_01]: They wanted better run game.
20:13
[SPEAKER_01]: The cardinals, we played in add-ons and drew pet scene at kind of created a really good run game in Arizona.
20:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Clay now let's go to Dallas, he's a Dallas OC.
20:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Dallas offense, one in game was great.
20:24
[SPEAKER_01]: It feels like they want to get better in the running game with Jamir Gibbs.
20:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And so just starting off, I think the super important this game is how good is this Saints run defense?
20:34
[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna get tested early and often in this game.
20:39
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's,
20:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a match that potentially potentially the Saints may have the upper hand out.
20:45
[SPEAKER_01]: The reason I say this is that you go down the Detroit office alone, especially their interior.
20:50
[SPEAKER_01]: They have a, like, uh, I believe a backup center who's going to be playing center.
20:55
[SPEAKER_01]: They have, um, Tate Rutlitch who was a rookie last year and he's he's going to a second year, um, Christian Mahagan who the Lions aren't high on, like, that's the interior and they have a right tackle who's Blake Miller, um, that they drafted from the in the first round, who's going to be their starting right tackle when his first game as a as a pro.
21:15
[SPEAKER_01]: I need
21:19
[SPEAKER_01]: gets a lot of publicity, but then, I don't know, quite a while ago, for an improtent, like, yeah, this, like, y'all got a y'all got to shut that runging shit down.
21:32
[SPEAKER_01]: And not let them lean on them offensively and establish a good run game, especially the explosive runs.
21:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Another thing that worries me for this game for the same defense is Jamir Gibbs against the same slide backers in Pete Warner.
21:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Danny Stotsman, Kate Nell is a company that they use him as a weapon in the passing game, which he's exceptional at.
21:59
[SPEAKER_02]: On the edge too, like not just up the middle, it's going to be like really, really important for call gratis and big creep and chase young to set those edges and be able to get
22:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Get Jamir Gives to keep flowing to the outside.
22:15
[SPEAKER_02]: So, Ellis can clean up.
22:18
[SPEAKER_02]: Stuff's making clean up.
22:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Safety's gonna come up and clean up.
22:21
[SPEAKER_02]: They can't let him, they just can't let him bust some open, right?
22:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Them big, them big 40, big 30, 40, all games, and all, they can't had it.
22:29
[SPEAKER_02]: He can't do it.
22:30
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, he gonna get his, like, that's just a fact.
22:33
[SPEAKER_02]: But you just can't let him bust those big explosives, man.
22:36
[SPEAKER_02]: And they got to figure out a way to limit that, because it'd just be a long as they broke it.
22:43
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just going to be a long day for one thing it will be one bit like the Saints run defense last year was So interesting because there are some games where like it they held pretty well and then no offense of Brian Receive, but it definitely got better towards the tell end of the season when John Ridgeway was playing predominantly those Brian precedes snaps But this is a this is a test for them
23:08
[SPEAKER_01]: from run defense standpoint.
23:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me put this in the chat that our dude Dante said.
23:12
[SPEAKER_01]: He said, I'm curious how the same difference is along.
23:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I can take advantage of the Lions weaker offensive line.
23:17
[SPEAKER_01]: The Lions have injuries and experience on the line.
23:19
[SPEAKER_01]: It will be interesting because this is the same old line that helped them lead the
23:25
[SPEAKER_01]: rushing a time, which is very true.
23:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'd like to me that should be a bench at Saints where their interior has to take advantage in when those matchups against an inexperienced younger lions' offensive line.
23:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that's it starts with there.
23:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's start with let's do our
23:44
[SPEAKER_01]: our matchups, which I feel is very, very important because it's so, like I said, we're going to do some little different for our PBPods, up of those, we're going to have the matchups, so watch and Saints X factors.
23:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So the matchup that I said, and we kind of hit on the earlier is the Saints pass rushers against Blake Miller, they're right.
24:03
[SPEAKER_01]: They're right.
24:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Ricky Wright tackle out of Clemson, they drafted them, they in they switch Penae's soul to the left talk, this to left
24:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I would guess Carl Grannison would, you know, because Grannison doesn't seem to switch the D.E.'
24:20
[SPEAKER_01]: 's often at least he didn't a lot last year.
24:23
[SPEAKER_01]: So you might see a lot of big pre-pronged Grannison often against Blake Miller.
24:30
[SPEAKER_02]: Which Carl Grannison's gonna show up in week one?
24:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Because you're going to get some rookie right top.
24:34
[SPEAKER_01]: And one of the ways to make dirt golf leased in less effective is getting him off the spot pressure.
24:42
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is for any quarterback, but especially like dirt golf, getting him off the spot, getting him pressure that's gonna affect him later in the games.
24:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd creep me to have a good game.
24:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, creep needs to have a good game.
24:56
[SPEAKER_01]: It is pivotal if this team is going to win.
24:59
[SPEAKER_01]: And if I'm Brendan Staley,
25:02
[SPEAKER_01]: You know that Chase Young is your best pass grocery.
25:05
[SPEAKER_01]: It came out today that Cam Jordan is going to not play a week one.
25:08
[SPEAKER_01]: This is his only his third game he's missed in a 15 year season.
25:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, one of the games was COVID.
25:16
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll get into injuries a little bit later.
25:18
[SPEAKER_01]: If I'm friends, I say, at some points during the game, I'm switching sides.
25:22
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm putting Chase Young on Blake Miller.
25:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm putting Clark Anderson.
25:28
[SPEAKER_01]: on Penaisool, you need to exploit that rookie right tackle.
25:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Got to exploit it.
25:34
[SPEAKER_02]: No question for us.
25:36
[SPEAKER_02]: Must happen.
25:37
[SPEAKER_02]: It must happen.
25:38
[SPEAKER_02]: And the thing we call Granuson is, he could give you, like early in the season, he usually gives you something, and it's like last year, he got really bad.
25:50
[SPEAKER_02]: He got really bad.
25:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it was like,
25:53
[SPEAKER_02]: almost two, three months stretch of bad like, you know what I'm saying?
25:56
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, and he was getting, you know, I saw him getting, like, you know how we always say, like, oh, never let you pass from Chicago against the tight end.
26:04
[SPEAKER_02]: And I tried it, blocked him, blocked him down, right?
26:08
[SPEAKER_02]: He was, he was legit about the whole tight end.
26:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I was like, what is going on, bro?
26:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he was getting, walked to the timeline by tight end.
26:16
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, come on,
26:18
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, but anyway, it's going to be so important.
26:21
[SPEAKER_02]: Like you say, get in golf off the spot and
26:25
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, most quarterbacks you face these days, you have to constantly worry about a running thread.
26:30
[SPEAKER_02]: You don't have to worry about that.
26:31
[SPEAKER_02]: We go golf ain't running the wheel.
26:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Golf, no.
26:33
[SPEAKER_02]: You got to worry about, he is a purely a pocket quarterback.
26:36
[SPEAKER_02]: He might move around a little bit in the pocket, but you don't have to worry about a running wheel.
26:40
[SPEAKER_02]: So all you got to do is affect that spot.
26:43
[SPEAKER_02]: That's harder to say.
26:44
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, typically it's become hard because the lines of that are such a good protection for them, but now you get a season is week one.
26:54
[SPEAKER_02]: And, you know, test these young guys out, test out Blake Miller too.
26:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I actually, I just kind of think and feel in that Brandon still is going to send a little heat this game.
27:04
[SPEAKER_02]: He's going, he's usually, he's like a middle of the pad blitz, so he's like, yeah, yeah, and then he's, I think he's going to bring the heat a little more.
27:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Because it's week one, there's no tape on anybody, you know what I'm saying?
27:17
[SPEAKER_02]: You could really start to sprinkle in some blitzes that are kind of hard for guys to pick up.
27:22
[SPEAKER_02]: So I wouldn't be surprised if you see some blitzes from, you know, the only Saker, maybe some Packages with Stahlburg or some like that, like guys coming in and just bringing the heat, you know, some corner blitzes or, you know, blitzes with us, Kate Nellis, who's probably going to be doing that on that.
27:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's going to be important, bro, because you can't, man, you just can't let this, you can't let the golf just get back there come to three Mississippi, because it's over.
27:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It is.
27:50
[SPEAKER_01]: One good thing that's come out of the injury report again, we're going to get into it a little bit.
27:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Quincy Riley is not on injury report, so it looks like they'll happen for the game, so the secondary will be at full strength.
28:00
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the X-factures that you, that you talked about, it's Kate and Ellis, I think you're right, man, I think, I think they're going to have Kate and maybe,
28:08
[SPEAKER_01]: run a couple of like, you know, maybe green dog blitzes up the middle haven't, you know, you know, pepper the A gas, maybe have a rush, do some stunts with, with Chase Young to try to affect this young, uh, Lions offensive line.
28:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Another key matchup, this is still kind of, we're kind of focusing on Lions offensive against St. Stephens.
28:29
[SPEAKER_01]: The matchup best scares me the most going to this game, Wolf.
28:33
[SPEAKER_01]: He got it.
28:35
[SPEAKER_01]: That, um, Rossy Browd versus Jonas Sankar Matchup Wolf.
28:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh.
28:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm worried.
28:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm worried.
28:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm.
28:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Ryan, I'm worried.
28:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know, I know Brennan's daily doesn't run a lot of typically man concepts.
28:55
[SPEAKER_01]: He does, he's brings it in here and there, but it's a very zone heavy team, usually cover three, so that in theory should protect, sinker, but I just like, money downs, money downs, third, third and a long, blah blah blah, is this defense going to be able to,
29:15
[SPEAKER_01]: one play their coverage well enough and further zones well enough because St. Brown is so smart and a tune in getting open and zone.
29:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's one of his superpowers.
29:26
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm just fascinated to know what brand it's daily is going to do to try to neutralize St. Brown in this game.
29:38
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's one of those things that comes down to comes back down to pressure and go if I don't think I don't think there's much you could do coverage wise
29:46
[SPEAKER_02]: against, against say Brown.
29:47
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I was looking at his numbers on the perception perception, shut out the bad home and, and like, his, his zone numbers are like in the 90th percentile.
29:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Like he's saying Brown.
29:59
[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, you play all his own stuff, but he just, he's just going to kill you.
30:03
[SPEAKER_02]: And he'll kill you with man in the, you know, against man too, but like against the only, he just destroys you.
30:07
[SPEAKER_02]: So, uh, it's just going to be tough.
30:10
[SPEAKER_02]: So the belt, most you could hope is
30:15
[SPEAKER_02]: to where, you know, okay, you give, you give the same brown little six yards here, seven yards out loot digs, little slans, and stuff like that.
30:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Trying to make them pick your part, you know, you know, 10,000 cuts type shit.
30:29
[SPEAKER_02]: But if he's like, if he's just like catching me, doing a catch and run, like the catch and run stuff that he's really good at.
30:35
[SPEAKER_02]: That is a long day.
30:36
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a long day.
30:37
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm fascinated to Brown, fascinated to see where I think it is, at this kind of, at this, you know, Nicole Star role that he is playing for.
30:46
[SPEAKER_02]: It's gonna be so fascinating, bro.
30:48
[SPEAKER_02]: He might be good, like what, what do you like, bro?
30:50
[SPEAKER_02]: It's good at it, bro.
30:51
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's crazy.
30:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Lions defense not not going to be a good key player out on defense who's going to cover crystal lobby.
30:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
30:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
31:00
[SPEAKER_01]: The intense homerism.
31:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Can we can we chill for a bit?
31:03
[SPEAKER_01]: We we talk in Saints defense against our Saints defense against Lions all.
31:08
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to get there.
31:09
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to get there.
31:10
[SPEAKER_01]: But like, ladies, um,
31:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, what if you I just if you're Drew Petstein.
31:19
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm very very confident that they go into the game plan and they circle in number.
31:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I think you seven now right number seven.
31:28
[SPEAKER_01]: They circle in number seven The curry cam in as to y'all see this being a shoot-out or depends on type of game
31:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I see the lion's scoring points.
31:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess I think my question will get into it when the Saints, when we talk about the offense, is can they go bam for bam with the audience?
31:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that's the question.
31:48
[SPEAKER_01]: That's my question.
31:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, well, yes, we've seen the lines put up points.
31:53
[SPEAKER_02]: We have to see the killing more saints shoot out with anybody.
31:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, like, you will be a firm.
32:00
[SPEAKER_02]: So it would be what I actually was to see us.
32:02
[SPEAKER_02]: It was because see them shoot out with somebody.
32:04
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's not that I'm saying they won't.
32:06
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just like, I got it.
32:07
[SPEAKER_02]: We got to see us.
32:08
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll make this so fascinating.
32:09
[SPEAKER_02]: We're all want to see it.
32:12
[SPEAKER_01]: One more, our X-factor, and then we're going to take our break, but kind of often.
32:18
[SPEAKER_01]: So my X-factor of this game, my X-factor's game is David Edwards.
32:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to leave that as a tease.
32:25
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to take a break at the other end of the break.
32:28
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to talk about Saints' offense against Lions' defense.
32:31
[SPEAKER_01]: We are previewing week one of the 2020's six NFL seasons.
32:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Saints' Lions week one will take our first break and be right back after this.

34:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's, let's talk Saints offense, um, my ex-factor, even though they made him, they made, they made our, our guy black, my, my ex-factor's game is David Edwards.
34:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Reason for this.
34:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Reason for this.
34:15
[SPEAKER_01]: God love me, y'all.
34:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Is we know that Kevin Moore wants to be able to run the ball effectively and have explosive plays, which the Saints can do at all last year.
34:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Finally, I could finally talk about it on the podcast, talk about a little bit in the discord.
34:32
[SPEAKER_01]: But I was told that there was a good chance that AK was going to be back for week one.
34:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And now, I know Underhill was kind of put it out.
34:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Mike Gervolo, he was limited in practice today.
34:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I think there was a good chance that AK is playing week one.
34:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And Kendra Miller was not on the end of the report.
34:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Champagne.
34:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, we play the whole, last the whole game, that's a different story, but what David Edwards in this Saints offensive line, but especially David Edwards going against this Detroit defensive line that they've even put a lot of resources in to get better.
35:14
[SPEAKER_01]: It feels like it's a place where the Saints should have the advantage offensively.
35:20
[SPEAKER_01]: A chance should have a good day on the ground.
35:23
[SPEAKER_01]: A.K.A.F.E.
35:24
[SPEAKER_01]: plays, Kendra P. plays, where if Kellon Morgan control the, or the team could control the line of scrimmage, now maybe you limit some of the possessions that dirt goth is able to get during the game.
35:35
[SPEAKER_01]: I know that people's like that strategy doesn't work, but like it, it, when done correctly, it's a strategy like coaches for sure try to do.
35:42
[SPEAKER_01]: but it can David Edwards open these gaping holes that leads to explosive runs for the Saints to have, which was not a thing at all, pretty much all the last year.
35:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's my thing in regards to the X-factor, but your initial thoughts when you think Saints' offense going against Detroit defense that,
36:04
[SPEAKER_01]: talent wise they're coming in very very injured going to be missing Brian Branch should be missing Carby Joseph's excuse me and the team going against that Detroit defense.
36:17
[SPEAKER_02]: For me, it's less about the lions and how talented or injured they are or whatever.
36:25
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just about like the saints of like my killer more.
36:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Tile a shock in the saints' office and what can they do?
36:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Can they execute?
36:34
[SPEAKER_02]: Can they be clean?
36:35
[SPEAKER_02]: Can they limit penalty?
36:36
[SPEAKER_01]: That's part of that.
36:38
[SPEAKER_02]: Can they just run a good clean operation early on the rule in a very loud?
36:45
[SPEAKER_02]: don't stadium in your first action as a team.
36:50
[SPEAKER_02]: They hadn't played in the preseason.
36:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Nope as a unit.
36:53
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I'm saying?
36:54
[SPEAKER_02]: They haven't got knocked those, you know, cobwebs off the bones.
36:57
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not that stuff.
36:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's
37:00
[SPEAKER_02]: like so it and it walking right into the fire walking right into the fire so I'm so fascinated to see if they could start fast like once we talked about before like one of the worse open and drive teams in the league last year um we killed it more and killing more historically hasn't been great on opening drives um so can they can they start fast can they
37:25
[SPEAKER_02]: early so that the fan base isn't getting ferocious and loud, where Detroit just starts rolling on offense, defense getting hype, shutting down the Saints offense is like you don't want that, you don't want to be in the game, you want to be in the game early, you don't want to get them rolling out of it.
37:43
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm really just fascinated by just the Saints outfit they're
37:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It's and one thing that's interesting and we'll see how it plays out and I'm going to put it up on the screen a little bit but Oscar dubbed did not practice today and something I may mention of in the discord is you know they're tied in depth is going to be my like we don't know Oscar that he could get help you know he could become a limited third you know Thursday Friday with plays but assuming he doesn't play right.
38:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Those ideas of the team wanting to play a lot of 12, 13 personnel, like they'd be able to play 12 personnel with John Johnson and Noah Fent.
38:21
[SPEAKER_01]: You had Mascato get injured.
38:23
[SPEAKER_01]: He's on IR, Oscar Delp.
38:24
[SPEAKER_01]: He, you know, is banged up right now.
38:27
[SPEAKER_01]: So we don't know if he's playing on Sunday.
38:28
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think going into this game, you're going to, you know, you might see a lot of 11 personnel and a lot of 12 personnel.
38:35
[SPEAKER_01]: But that said, if it's a lot of 11 personnel,
38:39
[SPEAKER_01]: If this saint's offensive line can handle pretty, I'm not saying the only person they have to worry about and the Detroit defense line, they, you know, the lion's drafted Derek Moore for Michigan, but they got a high light 97.
38:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you're a Kelvin Schupper, my guess is he's gonna have 97, eight in Hutchison lined up against right Taco, Waga, NC, Kenfuwaga, handle 97 all game.
39:09
[SPEAKER_01]: And if the Saints are able to neutralize Aden Hutchison to some degree in this game, where he's not taking over the game, then they give themselves a chance to win this game.
39:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Because if Chuck has time, you would hope and think that they can do something offensively in terms of kind of picking on this Detroit secondary.
39:30
[SPEAKER_01]: But I want to know, one of my questions for this game,
39:33
[SPEAKER_01]: is, and Kelly, and I think Underhill asked him a question about, like the tacos being on islands, if he sees 97, I don't know, going crazy against banks or going crazy against waga, does he change and does he adapt to sin help to limit 97 from taking over the game?
39:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Show me, bro, show me, because a lot of times later he didn't.
39:58
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know, he did, that's come about dead and you know, Kelli was like, yeah, that's something we have to be mindful of.
40:02
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, okay, like, be mindful of it, bro.
40:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, you know what I'm saying?
40:06
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, especially when somebody like eight and a half said, it's going to ham.
40:09
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think about her, I study him a little bit last year when I was trying to just learn more about past rushers.
40:18
[SPEAKER_02]: He, he's similar to Cam Jordan in a sense in a way.
40:23
[SPEAKER_02]: But he doesn't win super quick, like his rushes don't come like light and quick.
40:29
[SPEAKER_02]: He's just effort, his effort and power is ridiculous, like his relentless, just relentless.
40:37
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's where he gets a lot of his.
40:39
[SPEAKER_02]: a lot of his own, a lot of his production comes from just doing that and that's a problem like, and so it's going to take like, it's going to take not only for waga, but chips from the tight end when the band's coming in the help and stuff like that, they just to keep him down, so it's because you know, look, Tyler shook, he liked to look down field, right?
40:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he does, like, yeah, he would go to check down stuff like that, but he likes to pay that ball and look
41:06
[SPEAKER_02]: He's going to look.
41:06
[SPEAKER_02]: He got two do toys out there and Bryce Lance and Barry Brown.
41:10
[SPEAKER_02]: He's going to be looking down for you to try and hit the.
41:12
[SPEAKER_02]: That's when the eight of huts isn't going to feast.
41:14
[SPEAKER_02]: So Tyler Schuck is going to have to be very mindful that clocked in his head to be like, okay, I got to get this ball out because huts he coming.
41:21
[SPEAKER_02]: He got two and a half seconds at most.
41:24
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what you got.
41:25
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the things that does worry me about this game is if Kevin Shepherd is smart, if they start running some twists and stunts, where Hutchinson rolling inside, and he's matched up against fellow Michigan alumni.
41:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It was so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so
41:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm circling 51 and I say, hey, don't worry about trying to beat the right tackle.
41:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Why don't we have you stunt inside?
41:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Come in, boom, boom, right at 51 and just have just, brah.
42:01
[SPEAKER_02]: And huts does that, brah, huts huts huts huts for the matchups.
42:05
[SPEAKER_02]: He does that a lot.
42:06
[SPEAKER_02]: And I can also see Kevin Shepard, sinning his blitzers like Kevin Shepard.
42:10
[SPEAKER_02]: He learned that the air and glint, you know, glint in your glint.
42:14
[SPEAKER_02]: And only for sinning that he.
42:15
[SPEAKER_02]: And just like I said, about Brandon Staley, maybe sinning he.
42:19
[SPEAKER_02]: I could see the lines doing the same thing because one day at home, they're going to have the crowd noise to that, to that advantage.
42:26
[SPEAKER_02]: So, and you have, you know, it's week one, they can bring the heat like crazy.
42:30
[SPEAKER_02]: So, it's another one of those things that's going to be a test for the saints' offense to be able to identify those blitzers quickly, which is very hard to do because you don't have tick, you don't have, and you operate with a, you know, a second year quarterback was only playing 10 games.
42:45
[SPEAKER_02]: It's tough.
42:45
[SPEAKER_02]: So, they're going to depend on guys like David Edwards.
42:48
[SPEAKER_02]: Eric McCoy, real smart players who've seen a lot to be able to identify that stuff early.
42:53
[SPEAKER_02]: And Tyler Schuck is going to have to have that clock that is aid, because sometimes the only way to beat a blitz is just to get the ball out.
42:59
[SPEAKER_02]: So you're going to have to get the ball to, you know, Travis H.A.
43:02
[SPEAKER_02]: and really quick, the album commander really quickly.
43:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Christmas lobby is one of the best why receivers in the league and getting open quick right off the steps.
43:10
[SPEAKER_02]: So you're going to hit him quick.
43:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's gonna be a game boy, it's it's it like for the Saints to win, I really feel like it there has to be a big Chris a lot of a game because, respectively, there should not really be anyone in the lion's secondary that should scare you as an outside corner that should be able to cover 12.
43:39
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, the guy is, I got your boy, Max.
43:41
[SPEAKER_02]: What do you mean with the Eagles?
43:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, he pants safety over it.
43:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm saying, bro, like, come on man, the advantage that the Saints should have offensively a shut gets time going against this lion's secondary with the lobby.
43:58
[SPEAKER_01]: And I just feel it in my bones.
44:00
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, if I don't know if it's going to be brown, I don't know if it's going to be lands.
44:04
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's going to be a big play by one of the rookies at some point in this game.
44:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm feeling.
44:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like it could be a brown put return touchdown, it could be a 40-yard catch by Lance, but one of the rookie route receivers is going to make a big play in this game.
44:19
[SPEAKER_01]: It's also sneakily could be a big John Johnson game because, because Jack Campbell, good player, good linebacker, but outside of Jack Campbell and their light in the lion's linebacking group, they got Devon White playing, like they got a Derek Barnes,
44:38
[SPEAKER_01]: We know Chuck loves doing.
44:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't call it that, well, I'm almost there.
44:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it.
44:45
[SPEAKER_01]: You nicknamed for doing a drama song, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it, I can
45:03
[SPEAKER_01]: The blue square is going to be all in our mission.
45:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, Kate.
45:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Kate, do it.
45:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Kate, Jane, do it.
45:07
[SPEAKER_02]: We're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like, we're like
45:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Olavi should be like 80% of the targets.
45:35
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I'm saying?
45:36
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, it's, yeah, it's simple.
45:39
[SPEAKER_02]: And do you want to judge the shit eat, bro?
45:40
[SPEAKER_02]: As long as he catching the ball, not making stupid drops, not making the mental mistakes.
45:45
[SPEAKER_02]: He should have a very productive game.
45:47
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's like, they need him to have a productive game.
45:49
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he should be able to beat up these safety.
45:53
[SPEAKER_02]: He should be able to beat up these linebackers.
45:55
[SPEAKER_02]: And he should be able to go off.
45:57
[SPEAKER_02]: This is what you, you're full, bro.
45:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Like you are a wire receiver,
46:02
[SPEAKER_02]: Big Jewel time, baby.
46:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Every, what is the problem with me?
46:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like like, like, like,
46:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to say stats aside because stats matter.
46:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to like, can you make those impactful plays?
46:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that leads to actually leads to like winning.
46:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Like John Johnson and called Brennan are kind of like the inverses of each other, the offense and defensive inverses of each other were like they maybe start the season hot and then they disappear for half the season and then they Saints are out to play off and they start getting going again, have that consistency from week one to week 18, like that's what,
47:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I would want to see, um, out of them.
47:11
[SPEAKER_01]: But go, just going back really quickly, just talking about this Lions, this Lions defense.
47:17
[SPEAKER_01]: So I just want to kind of give them, just, you know, just more, you know, more, um, a Lehman Neill, a Defense Attackal, um,
47:24
[SPEAKER_01]: is a good run defender for them.
47:26
[SPEAKER_01]: How to doubt on season last year.
47:28
[SPEAKER_01]: So they're trying to get him to come back.
47:30
[SPEAKER_01]: They draft it to leak Williams from Ohio State last season and first round pick.
47:36
[SPEAKER_01]: So they've, the lines have invested a lot of resources and they're defensive lines.
47:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It's very similar to the Saints when they were drafting a lot of edgers and they weren't working out, but the lines have been at the Depends of Taco position.
47:47
[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of like a different of where they inverse.
47:52
[SPEAKER_01]: can this team lean on, lean on them in terms of the trenches, Eric McCoy, Flaga, Banks, Edwards, whatever 51 could give you, that has to be the bread and butter of this, of this team.
48:09
[SPEAKER_01]: And if this team is going to win, it's going to win.
48:13
[SPEAKER_01]: on Sunday offensive.
48:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Because one thing that we'll take a crowd out of a game is a very like methodical running game.
48:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that shit takes crowds out real quick.
48:23
[SPEAKER_01]: You get in four yards, five yards, six yards here.
48:26
[SPEAKER_01]: That shit will take just a crowd out really quickly.
48:28
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's just a very, very important thing.
48:31
[SPEAKER_01]: And I do wonder
48:33
[SPEAKER_01]: what we'll see from Kellen calling plays in terms of, do they utilize Chuck more in the room game, which it's a skill of his, I get a little worried about it when it happens just because of his injury history.
48:49
[SPEAKER_01]: But,
48:50
[SPEAKER_01]: With potentially having three running backs with H&AK, Kendrae Healthy, do you get some to 21 personnel?
48:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you get some two back sets where then you're trying to put the Detroit defense and conflict of like, okay, like, who's this ball going to go to?
49:05
[SPEAKER_01]: That type of thing that maybe kind of catch them off guard?
49:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and I think that would be smart to do is to catch them off going.
49:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And like just from running the ball's standpoint,
49:17
[SPEAKER_02]: you know, do they run more inside outside zone, you know, with Travis H.A.A.
49:22
[SPEAKER_02]: with El Camerra, El Camerra, that's where he excelled at, you know, before last year, I'm really fascinated by Travis H.A.A.A.
49:32
[SPEAKER_02]: because we haven't seen much of him, like, you know, obviously in the preseason, you know, we saw what we saw in training camp.
49:38
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he's a dude, bro.
49:40
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, he is a legitimate, like, foundation running back, you know, and I really think,
49:46
[SPEAKER_02]: He could, he could be the one that I really kind of change this offense for the better.
49:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
49:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
49:54
[SPEAKER_02]: From what we saw last year, just from like a bore down the down consistency, stay a point.
50:00
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's gonna be fascinating.
50:01
[SPEAKER_02]: But like back to Kelly, more bro, I like show me something, bro.
50:04
[SPEAKER_02]: I like show me what you've been cooking up all all season.
50:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't try out the same stuff you was doing last year.
50:11
[SPEAKER_02]: You did some good stuff, but.
50:13
[SPEAKER_02]: roll out some new wrinkles, like you just said, it's 21 person.
50:16
[SPEAKER_02]: There's a two bag set.
50:17
[SPEAKER_02]: So some unbalanced line stuff, you know, put, put big, big sell out there with, you know, uh, Jeremiah, right.
50:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Yo, don't put your mouth right out there on the edge.
50:26
[SPEAKER_02]: Six linemen.
50:27
[SPEAKER_02]: It just run the ball, just run it down the mouth.
50:29
[SPEAKER_02]: They know them.
50:30
[SPEAKER_02]: We're in coming.
50:30
[SPEAKER_02]: We know run diamond.
50:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Go stop it.
50:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's go.
50:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Like just show me some stuff that make me say, okay, Kelly, Kellen out here trying to.
50:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So, let's take our last break right here.
50:57
[SPEAKER_01]: We're gonna come back, hit them, I wanna do, I do wanna hit on special teams because it's a big thing that basically the Saints have a new punner and a new kicker.
51:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Go into the new, we'll clear, we'll kicker.
51:10
[SPEAKER_01]: So, gonna hit on that and then we'll do our predictions and then we will wrap up, we'll be right back and have our last break right after this.
51:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Yo, what up, Wolf?
51:24
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you looking at?
51:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Man, I'm checking out this website, this site is Cheeksboro.
51:28
[SPEAKER_02]: In the 21st century, how do you have a crappy website?
51:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Couldn't be me?
51:33
[SPEAKER_02]: They need to hit a bi-guide, bejo with precious works.

52:04
[SPEAKER_02]: B. John sets up, set up Saints Blockpointed Podcasts website for us a few years ago and hit it out the park.
52:11
[SPEAKER_02]: He also keeps it up the date and helps us anytime we want to add something new like a form or the prospect matching tool that we did for the NFL draft.
52:19
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like having your own personal developer just a text or a call away.

52:37
[SPEAKER_02]: You could get with him at these on at PreciousWorks, the IGO in at Precious.Works are good to Precious.Works for his website.
52:48
[SPEAKER_02]: Make sure to tell him
52:55
[SPEAKER_01]: I come back and find out that Drake made through like three interceptions in the second half in the C-hawks for one.
53:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I also guess that.
53:04
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess also the Patriots were down three and were in Filgo-Rainte in Drake made through interceptions.
53:13
[SPEAKER_01]: But all's back, baby.
53:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but so I think I, to that, I wanted to add this point of, there is so much luck.
53:24
[SPEAKER_01]: that has to happen in football, because first drive of the game, week one, opening kick off, Sam Darno gets hurt on the fifth play of the new, like, people don't understand, like how many things have to go right for a team in any sport to win a championship, but especially in NFL.
53:44
[SPEAKER_01]: It, like, so much has to go right for a team.
53:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Bayway, I just want to do luck, get in the way and in week one, bro.
53:56
[SPEAKER_01]: What's up?
53:57
[SPEAKER_01]: What's up?
53:58
[SPEAKER_02]: NFL is crazy burn NFL is crazy.
54:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, it just it based most I've heard because you just hope no injuries are done like like, I know we want to win, but please no major injuries and nothing like they're coming out this game Sunday, you know, you want everybody to be healthy and, you know, injuries happen obviously, but just not nothing major nothing major for the start is please.
54:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Because we need it.
54:24
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, we are really short-handed, but we need everybody.
54:27
[SPEAKER_02]: One thing I forgot to mention, uh, just office is worth the defense.
54:31
[SPEAKER_02]: Devon Vellie, bro.
54:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Vellie.
54:34
[SPEAKER_02]: He is another one that should feast, I guess.
54:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, defense.
54:39
[SPEAKER_02]: Third Vellie.
54:41
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, all intermediate stuff, I wanted to say, I saw a state somewhere with lines.
54:45
[SPEAKER_02]: One of the worst defenses versus intermediate level in past year.
54:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Last year.
54:51
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's where, you know, started to show getting a lot of success.
54:54
[SPEAKER_02]: So, yes, I would like to see that.
54:56
[SPEAKER_02]: I would like to see a lot of that from a lot of people.
54:58
[SPEAKER_02]: For the Vaughan Valley, like beat them, save these up for them.
55:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Beat them, save these up, please.
55:03
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, get between, you know, between the safety and my act that is all that stuff.
55:07
[SPEAKER_01]: There's some crosses going and stuff like that.
55:11
[SPEAKER_02]: We need to see that, brother, this, this, if the saints' offense as leveled up, like they said they have, they should be able to put pressure on this lion's defense.
55:25
[SPEAKER_01]: They should be able to burn.
55:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Should be in the key word, going back to special teams real quick and then we kind of
55:37
[SPEAKER_01]: goes a very sneaky offensive pickup, you know, can there be moments where he flips the field for the Saints and flips field position and put the lines and and bat if bat field position, you know, maybe they're coming out of their own team yard line things like that because it just it just was it has not been the thing for this thing.
55:56
[SPEAKER_01]: They have not had a weapon at punner.
55:59
[SPEAKER_01]: since like Thomas Morse that like true like it's just been just guys in guys out guys in guys out they haven't Ryan right hopefully he can be that guy like he had that great but the start for you see then the second one was so a fucking off tank and then but then the other one after that one was like was back before yeah hopefully that continues and then Daniel Carlson may like they
56:24
[SPEAKER_01]: He signed him with like, we could pre-season after what they were seeing with Tanner Brown and Charlie Smith.
56:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And if he can be the somewhere close to the Vegas Raiders version of himself, that's a huge plus.
56:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's a win.
56:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Where you going out there, you don't think getting three points is gonna be an adventure every goddamn time.
56:47
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
56:47
[SPEAKER_02]: And those points are gonna come.
56:49
[SPEAKER_02]: Those points, and look, you're going to get a head coach
56:53
[SPEAKER_02]: doesn't like the three points.
56:54
[SPEAKER_02]: He will, you know, he will go for it on foot down instead of taking the field goal.
56:58
[SPEAKER_02]: So take the three killer.
57:01
[SPEAKER_02]: I take the three when you can and get damn calls from out there and take the three because those three might be enough to win the game.
57:07
[SPEAKER_02]: You know what I'm saying when they win, when they gamble, decides to go for it on foot down and, you know, maybe they don't get to them for a down, maybe they, you know, they can't confirm it on, maybe they don't, because
57:19
[SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't want to kick the ball, he wants to throw, he wants to score and win on touchdowns.
57:24
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know, I love the aggression, but we've seen it call us in games in the past games.
57:29
[SPEAKER_02]: They shouldn't win.
57:30
[SPEAKER_02]: Um, so that's something we have to think about.
57:33
[SPEAKER_02]: I just hope I just hope and pray calls in like, at least give us a year, right?
57:39
[SPEAKER_02]: At least give us this season.
57:40
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's just not even worried about kicker.
57:43
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to have to talk about kicker.
57:45
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't see it, you know, 80, 80, 80, 80, 87% of your kicks.
57:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Just hit that with your stellar would be, would be content.
57:53
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, well, it's time, week one.
57:56
[SPEAKER_01]: prediction.
57:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me Saints are going to win or not.
58:02
[SPEAKER_01]: And give me the score prediction.
58:09
[SPEAKER_02]: The Saints are going to win.
58:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Saints are going to win.
58:14
[SPEAKER_02]: I predicted it two months ago when the schedule came up.
58:18
[SPEAKER_02]: Sticking with it.
58:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Saints are going to get the top scores going to be
58:26
[SPEAKER_02]: I see the score's gonna be 31, 31 to 20, 31 to 20, bit of a bit of a shoot out.
58:33
[SPEAKER_02]: When, when 5th year ago, it was shoot out.
58:36
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna say, 3027.
58:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Lyus, we got a win in one.
58:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I got I got to see it, I got to I got to see it kill him more in in these saints.
58:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I said, I think put up 27 points out that'll give me a little something to be like, right?
59:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Like you're like, okay, okay, all right, okay, but I will say it's like,
59:11
[SPEAKER_01]: They somehow had to find a way to split week one and week two.
59:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Like losing to the lions a week one and then going to Baltimore and going to Baltimore is like, oh, that's the killer right there.
59:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Cause you don't want to start to it.
59:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, and two.
59:24
[SPEAKER_02]: You just don't want to start over to where we all went to.
59:27
[SPEAKER_02]: Brom, but take a dime already up.
59:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Negative, just over it already, no Kevin.
59:34
[SPEAKER_02]: Everybody watched the games at that point, right?
59:37
[SPEAKER_01]: He just watched it, he just watched it, Jeremiah Smith had a lot of life in it.
59:43
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think he'd do it.
59:47
[SPEAKER_01]: But we shall see it is.
59:51
[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be fun.
59:51
[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be exciting.
59:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Again.
59:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Jump in, be a part of our community, patreon.com, slash, slain's block quality, or YouTube member.
1:00:00
[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to be fun.
1:00:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Just to give you all the breakdown of what's to expect kind of during the regular season.
1:00:05
[SPEAKER_01]: So our aim is to do our preview pause on Wednesdays.
1:00:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Wednesday evenings.
1:00:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry, we have to do them so late.
1:00:11
[SPEAKER_01]: We're working people, we have careers.
1:00:13
[SPEAKER_01]: So we've got to do them, we can do them.
1:00:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And then Sundays or game de ashes say, but usually most of the Saints games are this year or all of a Sunday except for, I believe the Monday night football game.
1:00:22
[SPEAKER_01]: We do the live stream and then after the live stream and watching the game together we then do the recap pod pretty soon a couple of hours or sometimes right literally right after the game on Sunday so we will be back on Sunday actually talking football the results all of it it is time we made it with and we will.
1:00:47
[SPEAKER_01]: And on this note, we appreciate all y'all for tuning in, watching all that with love y'all.
1:00:53
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll be back on Sunday with the recap pod for St. Lions with that we are.
