• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Fiddy understands that you're not supposed to annoy the guests
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: before they come on the air. That is not ideal.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: That is kind of shameless.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: And we have to try to clean this whole thing up.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like he like he texts yesterday, Vashti, we are
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: not at practice. We need your insight, and then she says,
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: I'll do it out of the kindness of my heart.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Anybody never Fitty does that. That's not you know what
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: if you went away right now. We'd respect that, honestly.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, all right, Vah, we just played the
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: audio of day. I think it was your question about,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: you know, winning or losing joint practices, and Canal's kind
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: of talked kind of around it or whatever. You know, Hey,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: we're not keeping our score system on this practice. I'm
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: gonna watch the film. Did you kind of feel like
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: even though the Panthers sounds like they rallied late after
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: a bad start, did you kind of feel like Jacksonville
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: still kind of won the day?
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I think so. At the beginning, it was really bad, Brownie.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: He was really fuss and he was like, Yo, the
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Panthers an't really getting beat up early, and they were
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: on the defensive side of the ball in on offense.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Defense was much more lopsided than offense was. And then
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: toward the end they started to really find their footing,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: which honestly is kind of what this team has done historically,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and they have to figure out a way to stop
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: being plagued by these slow starts. T Matt told me,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and I asked him about that as well. He said
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: they were they were trying to be cute, and I
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: appreciated his candor, because, Yeah, I guess y'all were trying
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: to be cute and you got to come in with
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: this with this dog like mentality from the start and
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: not work your way up to it.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Per the reports that we were reading Vashti from your uh,
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: your great site. Yesterday a big day for T mac
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: and I was gonna ask you, did you happen to
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: notice where where was T mac lined up? Did they?
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Did they show him the slot at all during during
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: yesterday session.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I don't remember him being in the slot too much.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: It was more so on the outside. Uh. I do
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: remember a catch in the red zone eleven on eleven
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: drill where it was a crossing route. He may have
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: been in the slot on that one, just because of
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: how the route developed, but I cannot confirm that with certainty.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: The ones that I saw where I looked at looked
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: at the line, how he was lined up, he was
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: on the outside, and if BRYCE saw him one on one.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: He was going in T mac Hey Vashti. You know,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: early on in practice, we're sitting here like all Panther
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: fans are. We're in the office and we're just refreshing
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: and reading all y'all's tweets yesterday, and for the first
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: half hour forty minutes, it was a little sad. And
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: one of the things y'all we're talking about is Jacksonville's
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: getting pressure. And I read one of the Jaguars reporters
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: talking about, Oh, their D line was eating today. Was it?
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Was it a day that would have that should have
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: us worried again about the O line or did they
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: end up battling back up front later? How would you
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: describe that?
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they did end up battling that and to the
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: O lines. Credit Robert Hunt and Damian Lewis got some
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: playing time, but they didn't get a whole bunch of
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: run with the ones. Yeah, so they were they were
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: kind of shuffling guys in and out of that offensive line.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: They did play some, but not to the extent that
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: you would see during a game. So while Bryce was
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: pressured a lot, I wouldn't hit the panic button yet
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: because your two guards, your two guys who were right
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: there protecting him, weren't in there for the majority of
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the reps, like most of the starters were.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, DASHTEI, it feels like it was another good day.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: And he keeps stacking days, and by he, I mean
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: Aj Dillon. How much of a chance are you seeing
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: now for agent to make this team in some role?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Listen, AJ runs angry. He brings a different dynamic. I
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: think to that room, a guy who was a downhill
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: a true downhill runner, somebody that poses a different threat
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: at the goal line?
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Is he.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: His verse is different? I just it's going to be
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: a numbers thing. And he's a player who is playing
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: like he's on the fringe of of making a fifty
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: three man roster, and he has to show that he's
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: going to be valuable to this team. And it's gonna,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: like I said, it's gonna break down. You know, do
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: you keep at the end because of his value in
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: the return game? Or do you you know how many
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: running backs do you keep? Do you keep three running backs?
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Do you carry four running backs? What's going on with
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Tuba and his handstring injury? Will he in fact be
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: ready for Week one? There's so many different variables, But
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in my opinion, when it comes to on the field's work,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: AJ Dillon has far surpassed Trevor as far as far
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: as play on the field and also play in practice.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Vashed I we definitely need to talk a little bit
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: about the sweet music that Bryce and tmack were making.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: How impressive was it, how encouraging was it? And then
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: who else on offense deserves a shout out once they
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: finally woke up from their slumber. Who else on offense
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: contributed to those guys getting it going?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Honestly, it was a t Matt and Bryce show. Once
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: they got things going, it really was. Cocher did not
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I don't even remember Copro having a catch. I was
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: right there at the end zone. There was It was
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: a red zone drill and Cooper was wide open on
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: the sideline and Bryce missed him. He ended up dumping
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: the ball down to jounce Jonathan Brooks for a minimal game.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: And usually Coper is a very even killed guy. He
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: kind of like yelled out because he was frustrated because
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: he was open on that play and he didn't get
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: the ball. And Xavier Lagett didn't really plan eleventh Canal
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: has told us after practice that he had I think
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: it was some type of injury that flared up and
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: they did not want They wanted to hold him out
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: so that he will be available on Friday for the game.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I saw a lot of the running backs getting involved
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: in the passing game. Dylan as well. Mitchell Evans had
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: a nice touchdown play where he was wide open in
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: the red zone drill. But outside of that, you know,
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: when it came to the wide receivers, it was a
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: team Ac and Bryce Young show.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I can't wait to see more of that
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: dang show this season. I do want to ask you
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: about this Vashtiy because I noticed some of the Jacksonville
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: media was saying, oh, on some of these Bryce Young
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: big plays, they would have been sacks. They should have
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: been blown dead, they should have been sacks. I heard
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Mike Kaye talking to KB yesterday in the afternoon, and
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: he was he was kind of scoffing at that. What
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: do you what do you? What can you tell us
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: about about that?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, some of them, if it was a play
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: that was blown dead, we kind of knew it. They
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: didn't let a lot of them go by maybe one
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: or two plays. But also, you know Bryce was able
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: to evase some of that pressure. Let's not act like that.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Bryce can't can't scoot and boot and get out of
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: trouble and evade and evade the SAT. So so we
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: saw that a couple of times. So I think in
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: those instances maybe the Jacksonville media thought, oh, he wouldn't
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: have been able to scramble there, Yes he would have.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Bryce is a lot fiftier and quicker than a lot
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: of I think he gets credit for so while maybe
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: one or two, but not not to the effect where
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: it was five or where it would have been a
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: sat Yes.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: Uh, that's the Mitchell Evans touchdown yesterday. We were kind
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: of hyped up about that. Did did you see did
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: you have a good angle? What we'll happen on that
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: play was that Mitchell Evans making a play? Was there
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: a bust in coverage? What happened there on the long
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: play by Mitchell Evans?
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: It was more he was so wide open and had
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: there been a bust to coverage, and that was one
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: of the ones where Bryce was under pressure. He ended
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: up rolling to the left and ev and Evans was
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: wide open like literally nothing but green, So that I
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: would attribute that because he was so open to being
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: busted coverage. It was a nice play by Bryce to
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: kind of evade that pressure that was coming coming to
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: him on the right. On the right side, he rolled
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: the left. I'm sorry he rolled left. The pressure was
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: coming from the right, and so you know, Mitchell, it's
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: I guess at that point it's like a scramble drill.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: So I would give Mitchell some credit because you know,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: when it's scramble drill, you just got to find the
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: open grass and be there and available for the quarterbacks
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: to throw you the ball. But yeah, it was just
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: wide open. He didn't shake him bank or any anything
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: like that. He didn't have to. He was so wide open.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Aw, that's what I wanted to do. Why couldn't you
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: just lie to us? Nash Dian tell us he ran
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: through it the whole day, run for the whole defense. No,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: we need the truth, all right, we need the truth.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: That's Felipe Franks. Though, Felipe Franks, he had a you know,
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: you asked me about somebody, and you know, Felise Bay
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Franks might not even make this roster. Who knows. He's
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: a special teams guy, but he is a guy that
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: will run over people. He even taunted the jag fans. Oh,
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: I love that after making the touchdown catch, he kind
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: of like took a bow spun the ball, raised his
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: hands in the air. And this was early into the
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: joint practice, so it kind of is set a tone.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: And whether he was with I think he might have
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: been with second team or thirteen, but the jag fans
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: boot and it was just, you know, he was really
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: the fire starter on the offensive side of the ball
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: yesterday and he had a couple of good catches.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I love his fire man. That clip of him just
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: looking over at the crowd and drawing booze is amazing.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: All right, before we go, I'm getting a couple of texts.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: You know, how our Texters roll. I'm sure it's same
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: as people that tweet you. There's a level of snark
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: in some of these Texters, and I'm getting people like
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: that that this dude says our vaunted so called top
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: ten defense getting picked apart sounds like another bad day
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: for a vo. I don't know if we can just
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: say all that, what did you see of the defense?
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: And like, was it a disappointing day for those guys?
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, the defense got worked. They got worked, And that's
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: as simple as you can put it. Whenever I looked
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: over there, and I and I admittedly was paying attention
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: more to offense than defense, but whenever I looked over there,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: there was a touchdown being scored on them, or it
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: was a long run. The crowd kept yelling and I'm like,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Liam must be bad over there. They did bounce back.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: The last period was kind of like a scrimmage period
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: where both teams came together on one field, had a
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: two minute had one series two minutes to go, and
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: they did force to three and out in that in
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: that in that period. But even Devin Lloyd afterwards, you know,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: when a god says, you know, we got we got
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: a lot to clean up, that means we weren't that
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: good and so, uh, yeah, they they got worked yesterday
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: by by the by the Jaguars offense. To put it
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: into perspective, there was no game planning. It was just
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: purely awful of athleticism and stincts trying to figure out
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: little that you haven't seen before. But you would want
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: your defense to especially with all the focus that has
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: been put on some of these off off season acquisitions,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: you will want them to perform better than what we
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: saw yesterday.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, dash Ti, will you say hello to your biggest
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: fan on our text line? Uh, mister Weatherman Mark he uh,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: he loves you and your voice alone has made him
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: believe in the Panthers again.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: So hier Man Mark, right, weather Man Mark, have a
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: drink man, you are thirsty bro on that text line
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: for Fasht, Hey, hey, hey.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Hey, let me give him some. Don't all them thirsty.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, fash I'm not behaving myself. Fasht,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: you did and you deserve all the love. Husky Pants says,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: she loves you more fans of we do. I know, seriously,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: you notice that too. I noticed that as well. Last
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: question we're getting from the Texters Monroe Freeling. Was it
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: a good day or was it rough for him? Or
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: even what do you think?
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: I would say, listen, for a rookie in his position,
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: he probably has been the most impressive to me because
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: with an offensive lineman, if we don't say his name,
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: then that means he's doing pretty well. I did watch
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: the one on ones with him. I would say he
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: got worked by ninety one and that was but he did.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: They did a lot of one on one rep so
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: I wish we could have recorded those for you guys.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: That were very restrictive with the taping portion of things.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: But he held his own. He held his own and
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: you know he's just a big guy. And when you're
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: that big, I mean it's gonna be hard to get
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: around you. His footwork was good, his hand placement looked
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: like he was good. He's gonna give It's not like
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Bryce is gonna have all days to throw the ball.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: But if Bryce goes through his checkdowns and he gets
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: the ball out in this like two point four seconds
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: or key point nine seconds, that is ideal for Canalis
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: in this offense. Freeman is going to give him enough
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: time to do that.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: There you go. That's good to hear. Eric Armstead's number
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: ninety one, and yes, the Jaguars media was raving about
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: him yesterday after practice. Vashti, you have also given us
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: an alternative nickname for fitting. One of the Texters after
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: you called him Shisty, says he should now be known
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: as Fit Shisty on the Mack and Bone Show. So
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: you provide us with a new new nickname.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: All right, bas we're gonna have a talk with him,
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Vashti during to break about this.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Sit him down.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I love that. I like that. It's cute. I
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: know what he's doing. I know he's trying to get
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: me going.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: There you go. Yeah, don't fall forward. He got me
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: going earlier. Vashta, I took the bait, start screaming, acting
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: like a loon. All right, Vave, be good and enjoy Jacksonville.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Thanks for coming on, thanks
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Fast, all right, Thanks for having me, guys,
