- 1:54Speaker 4: you see him.
- 1:55Speaker 5: You know what. Fitty was so cool when he called me.
- 1:58Speaker 5: He was like, yeah, it's a vast time only to
- 2:00Speaker 5: just stab me in the bed.
- 2:04Speaker 3: I want you to know we only wanted you stabbed
- 2:06Speaker 3: once for some reason. Phittias stabbed twice.
- 2:08Speaker 4: Now with that song.
- 2:11Speaker 3: Oh man, vash Di, we need to bring you in
- 2:13Speaker 3: on a conversation we were having before we get to
- 2:17Speaker 3: the Panthers, and there is so much stuff going on. Heck,
- 2:19Speaker 3: there're two days away from playing a game. I was
- 2:23Speaker 3: talking about how I don't it drives me crazy, how
- 2:26Speaker 3: big these superhero movies are. I stop liking superheroes or
- 2:30Speaker 3: caring about them when I grew up. I'm not a
- 2:33Speaker 3: little that not to sche I'm not a little kid anymore.
- 2:39Speaker 3: And a superhero nation is furious with me. How do
- 2:42Speaker 3: you feel about about dudes that are into superhero movies?
- 2:47Speaker 4: How do you feel about that?
- 2:48Speaker 5: You know? I feel like we all have to be
- 2:51Speaker 5: a to have a way that tapp into nostalgia in
- 2:53Speaker 5: our childlike memories and joys of life. And if they
- 2:59Speaker 5: do that through a super Man movies and so bid.
- 3:02Speaker 5: You know, as long as you know when to grow up,
- 3:05Speaker 5: you know, as long as you know when to act
- 3:07Speaker 5: like a man.
- 3:07Speaker 4: And that's fine, all right.
- 3:11Speaker 5: I think it's cute. It's cute.
- 3:15Speaker 3: Oh man, all right? I lost on that one bone.
- 3:17Speaker 3: I tried to appeal to vash judge. The judge shot
- 3:20Speaker 3: my appeal down. You tried didn't work out there, Vashti
- 3:23Speaker 3: x L. It feels like when we're reading tweets and
- 3:26Speaker 3: we're watching practice that he is making strides here in
- 3:30Speaker 3: year three. Where where have you seen the most improvement
- 3:33Speaker 3: at camp so far with Lee get I mean.
- 3:36Speaker 5: He's catching the ball, he's keeping his feet and bounds.
- 3:40Speaker 5: He is He was never a guy who you didn't
- 3:44Speaker 5: seem like, who didn't feel like he was into practice.
- 3:47Speaker 5: He's always been into practice. He loves football, but he's
- 3:50Speaker 5: making plays and he's a guy who is It looks
- 3:54Speaker 5: like his even his timing with Bryce seems to be better.
- 3:59Speaker 5: And you know, I know that they went out a
- 4:02Speaker 5: couple of times this offseason and got some work in.
- 4:05Speaker 5: So your hope that pays dividends once the actual games come.
- 4:09Speaker 5: But if I had to go based on what I've
- 4:11Speaker 5: seen on practice from practice, this is gonna be a
- 4:14Speaker 5: big year for Xavier Leged and he's going to prove
- 4:17Speaker 5: a few of those haters wrong.
- 4:19Speaker 4: I hope.
- 4:20Speaker 3: So, I mean, listen, I've been I'm very skeptical, right
- 4:23Speaker 3: and I have been so, but my god, I want
- 4:25Speaker 3: him to prove me wrong, Vash, I really do, and
- 4:28Speaker 3: I don't know how. Like that clip that was floating
- 4:30Speaker 3: around the internet, we played it yesterday of his SI
- 4:33Speaker 3: interview where he talked about renovating his childhood home because
- 4:38Speaker 3: he wants to have the feeling of when he was
- 4:39Speaker 3: a little boy and both his parents were alive with
- 4:42Speaker 3: him in that home. He lost both of them when
- 4:44Speaker 3: he was young. Like, I don't know how you can
- 4:46Speaker 3: watch that and not root for this dude. He is
- 4:49Speaker 3: one hundred percent genuine.
- 4:51Speaker 5: Absolutely, and I think that that's what resonated with fans
- 4:55Speaker 5: so much when he first got here. You know, the accent,
- 4:58Speaker 5: the just pok, street boy, down homes love ability that
- 5:04Speaker 5: he had, and he was authentically himself. Unfortunately it didn't
- 5:09Speaker 5: translate on the field. If it had, you know, he
- 5:12Speaker 5: might have been one of the most popular pickers. But
- 5:15Speaker 5: it's not too late. And in South Carolina, and he's
- 5:18Speaker 5: told us this before, he was a slow burn in
- 5:21Speaker 5: South Carolina. He didn't pop on the field initially. He
- 5:24Speaker 5: had great last season and he had all of the
- 5:28Speaker 5: tools to be a good wide receiver, which is why
- 5:30Speaker 5: the Panthers took him at the end of the first round.
- 5:33Speaker 5: So you know, he has every he has all the intangibles.
- 5:36Speaker 5: He just needs to put it together with Bryce.
- 5:39Speaker 4: That's why the man throw them the football. You mentioned there.
- 5:42Speaker 6: Bryce Young feels like from what we see that Bryce
- 5:46Speaker 6: is having a hag of a camp so far. Where
- 5:48Speaker 6: do you think Bryce has improved the most from where
- 5:51Speaker 6: we saw him a year ago.
- 5:53Speaker 5: He's not thinking as much and because now the season
- 5:57Speaker 5: said this yesterday, he's moving faster. He knows the offense
- 6:00Speaker 5: he knows his receivers. He's not, you know, trying to
- 6:04Speaker 5: learn much of anything. He knows what it is, he
- 6:07Speaker 5: knows what he wants to do, and so now he's
- 6:10Speaker 5: now he's just he's like what they call a flow state.
- 6:13Speaker 5: He's in a flow state. And when it comes to
- 6:15Speaker 5: running the offense and being quarterback, where he doesn't have
- 6:18Speaker 5: to think, okay, well this call means this or all right,
- 6:21Speaker 5: my receiver is going here. He already knows that. And
- 6:23Speaker 5: now he can just go out and play and play freely,
- 6:27Speaker 5: and that is playing faster, and that is that will
- 6:30Speaker 5: benefit the offense this season.
- 6:32Speaker 3: Vashta, What did you think of brand Tillis's comments yesterday,
- 6:36Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna do a whole segment kind of
- 6:38Speaker 3: like you know what we do. We try to read
- 6:40Speaker 3: in what's he really telling us? But I thought there
- 6:42Speaker 3: were some interesting things there. It did seem like he
- 6:44Speaker 3: might have slipped up and kind of said about his contract,
- 6:48Speaker 3: we'll see how the season goes type thing, you know,
- 6:50Speaker 3: meaning oh okay, maybe there's there's definitely no extension. And
- 6:54Speaker 3: then the stuff about I know fans got going on
- 6:56Speaker 3: the thing about we don't he's a sending, but we
- 6:58Speaker 3: don't know what his ceiling is. I know that that
- 7:01Speaker 3: fans kind of got worked up on that. What did
- 7:03Speaker 3: you think about some of the comments that he made.
- 7:07Speaker 5: I mean, I think that's fair, and you got to
- 7:09Speaker 5: look at it from Brent Tillis's point of view. You know,
- 7:12Speaker 5: when you're looking at a quarterback and whether you pay
- 7:15Speaker 5: this guy forty fifty million dollars a year, however, whatever
- 7:20Speaker 5: the market is at the time where Bryce is looking
- 7:22Speaker 5: to have a contract extension, you have to firmly believe
- 7:27Speaker 5: that he is your guy. And Bryce has shown flashes
- 7:30Speaker 5: he ended the season well he is. He is showing
- 7:34Speaker 5: that he is definitely an ascending player, but you still
- 7:38Speaker 5: don't know what the ceiling is. The ceiling can be
- 7:40Speaker 5: where he is right now, or the ceiling can be,
- 7:43Speaker 5: you know, one of the best quarterbacks in the league,
- 7:46Speaker 5: and so he just hasn't shown on a consistent basis
- 7:49Speaker 5: school he will be, And so I think that that
- 7:51Speaker 5: was fair. But also I think if Bryce comes out
- 7:54Speaker 5: whooping these first let's say six games, and he's looking
- 7:58Speaker 5: like he picked up right where he left thought, he's
- 8:00Speaker 5: looking like Atlanta Falcons Bryce Young in these games, you
- 8:05Speaker 5: got to inc him sooner than later, because the win,
- 8:07Speaker 5: the longer you wait, the price is only gonna continue
- 8:10Speaker 5: to go up. And so you know, I think that
- 8:13Speaker 5: the door is always open with these contract talks. I
- 8:16Speaker 5: don't know if he if he I don't know if
- 8:18Speaker 5: he plays a full year without an extension, who knows.
- 8:21Speaker 5: But if he starts, if he really solidifies himself, you
- 8:25Speaker 5: know early on this season, you go ahead and lock
- 8:28Speaker 5: that down and you and you solidify him as your
- 8:31Speaker 5: man for the for the foreseeable feature dash Guy.
- 8:34Speaker 6: The first Depth Jar first depth chart came out yesterday
- 8:38Speaker 6: and one notable thing that we saw was Cam Jackson
- 8:42Speaker 6: running with the ones up front on defense. How surprised
- 8:46Speaker 6: are you that he's up there? And how much of
- 8:49Speaker 6: a of a factor do you think Cam could be
- 8:52Speaker 6: here in the second year.
- 8:54Speaker 5: Camus had a good camp. Camus had a good camp,
- 8:57Speaker 5: and you know, yesterday it's crazy yesterday practice, I was like, God, look,
- 9:02Speaker 5: you're a big guy.
- 9:04Speaker 2: In real life.
- 9:05Speaker 5: It was Cam Jackson because they fold their numbers up
- 9:08Speaker 5: into their past, and so I was Cam Jackson is huge.
- 9:13Speaker 5: And you know, I don't know if their guys expected
- 9:17Speaker 5: Lee Hunter to just because of where he was drafted
- 9:19Speaker 5: and because of the upside potential to just come in
- 9:22Speaker 5: and run with the ones and be the guy. But
- 9:24Speaker 5: Cam Jackson has had a better camp than Lee Hunter,
- 9:27Speaker 5: and you want that. Cam Jackson has a year under
- 9:30Speaker 5: his belt of being in this system and playing in
- 9:33Speaker 5: the league, and so I wasn't surprised at at cam
- 9:37Speaker 5: u being where he was, especially with Kirk being out
- 9:40Speaker 5: with injury. Uh, you know he's Cam is out of
- 9:43Speaker 5: the camp and and Lee Hunter is gonna have to
- 9:45Speaker 5: earn earn his earn his strikes. But you know, there
- 9:50Speaker 5: was no surprise for me there. The surprise was Will
- 9:53Speaker 5: Lee like CB three. I was like, Will Lee has
- 9:56Speaker 5: been making plays all over the field. I was surprised
- 9:58Speaker 5: to see him that far, that far down on the
- 10:03Speaker 5: depth charts. But Louis asked, Analyis today, I'm sure he's
- 10:06Speaker 5: gonna say, oh, don't read too much into that, so
- 10:08Speaker 5: you know we'll see.
- 10:09Speaker 4: Yeah, ham Jackson did.
- 10:10Speaker 6: God me last week when we were out there, I said, wait,
- 10:14Speaker 6: there's a guy bigger than Derek Brown out there.
- 10:16Speaker 4: It's crazy. And he's been bigger than Derek Brown. It's crazy.
- 10:20Speaker 4: The side by side and bak.
- 10:22Speaker 3: Is Campbell like element to him and when he put
- 10:25Speaker 3: when he put Sam Heckt, I mean, I love Sam
- 10:27Speaker 3: hack Day, You're my favorite guy of the draft, honestly.
- 10:29Speaker 3: But when he put him on skates yesterday on that
- 10:31Speaker 3: one on one clip, y'all sent out, oh my god,
- 10:34Speaker 3: it's gracious, this guy's moving him.
- 10:38Speaker 4: Oh that was on him.
- 10:40Speaker 5: He treated him like a kid. It was like, bro
- 10:43Speaker 5: couldn't even get his footing. He just drove him.
- 10:45Speaker 4: That was great.
- 10:46Speaker 3: That was impressive. So yeah, Cam Jackson, I'm glad YO
- 10:48Speaker 3: know are talking him up. What do you think of
- 10:51Speaker 3: Monroe Freeling so far? We found out yesterday he's not
- 10:53Speaker 3: going to start Thursday. No, the starters are going to
- 10:56Speaker 3: start on are going to play on Thursday, which is
- 10:58Speaker 3: probably good.
- 10:59Speaker 4: But you sent out some of those.
- 11:00Speaker 3: One on ones again yesterday and it was Freely against Phillips.
- 11:04Speaker 3: It seems like he's holding his own Like, what do
- 11:06Speaker 3: you think of what you're seeing from Freeling?
- 11:09Speaker 5: That's exactly how I would describe it. Freeling is a
- 11:13Speaker 5: rookie who, you know, expected to be a guy that
- 11:16Speaker 5: would play on the left side, but because of the
- 11:18Speaker 5: injury to Taylor Mowten, he's thrust into this starting role.
- 11:22Speaker 5: On the right hand side, and he is holding his
- 11:24Speaker 5: own against one of the one at least he's being
- 11:28Speaker 5: paid as one of the best pass rushers in the league.
- 11:31Speaker 5: He hasn't turned it into the sack production yet, but
- 11:34Speaker 5: he's holding his own against Phillips, and that's what you
- 11:37Speaker 5: that's all you can hope for, you know. And iron
- 11:40Speaker 5: sharpens iron. You're glad that he's going up against the
- 11:43Speaker 5: guy like Phillips. Phillips gets him every now and then,
- 11:47Speaker 5: but you know, shoot no offense, it's gonna happen. But
- 11:51Speaker 5: for him to be able to hold his own the
- 11:53Speaker 5: way that he has, and he seems to be getting
- 11:56Speaker 5: better with each practice, that's all you can ask for
- 12:00Speaker 5: from a rookie who's kind of being thrust into this,
- 12:03Speaker 5: into this pivotal role along the line.
- 12:06Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's great news, all right.
- 12:08Speaker 3: So I got to ask you, Vashti, of you were
- 12:10Speaker 3: there a practice yesterday. I need to know about this
- 12:13Speaker 3: hit that Trayvon Mehyrick put on Felipe Franks and credit
- 12:18Speaker 3: to Felipe two catches. I guess on that drive and
- 12:21Speaker 3: including holding onto the ball when he got walloped so
- 12:24Speaker 3: bad in camp practice that a flag got thrown like
- 12:29Speaker 3: is was that like, did Marrik go too far or
- 12:32Speaker 3: did you kind of like seeing that? And how did
- 12:34Speaker 3: Felipe Franks resist starting another rumble? I got to give
- 12:37Speaker 3: him credit for that.
- 12:39Speaker 5: Yeah, there are several elements to this. Marrick just he's
- 12:43Speaker 5: just that guy. You know, he's going to pop you
- 12:47Speaker 5: and that's how he plays. I remember last year in
- 12:50Speaker 5: Houston when they had their joint practice, he popped the
- 12:54Speaker 5: guy and it started a big fight in Houston because
- 12:57Speaker 5: but you know, what you don't want to do is
- 13:00Speaker 5: mute somebody's instincts. Right, this is a guy, this is
- 13:04Speaker 5: what he does. Now if you tell him to hold back,
- 13:07Speaker 5: that probably changes the whole dynamic of how he plays.
- 13:11Speaker 5: You don't want to pop your own teammate in that
- 13:14Speaker 5: in that manner. But Felipe Franks, you know, I guess
- 13:17Speaker 5: he knows. Felipe Franks is not necessarily a guy who's
- 13:21Speaker 5: gonna make this fifty three man roster and Mark Is
- 13:25Speaker 5: I probably would have gout in his face if he
- 13:28Speaker 5: did that to me. At needs to you know, set
- 13:30Speaker 5: the tone to let you know, you know, bro, you
- 13:33Speaker 5: need to relax. But he didn't. He held on to
- 13:36Speaker 5: the ball. And I guess that was his statement in
- 13:38Speaker 5: that moment. But Mary is just a guy, you know,
- 13:41Speaker 5: And some of the guys joked around in the locker
- 13:43Speaker 5: room like he got a screw loose and that, and
- 13:49Speaker 5: you need you need guys in your locker rooms who
- 13:53Speaker 5: don't who have a few screws loose, because they add
- 13:56Speaker 5: a different element to to that and you you specifically
- 14:01Speaker 5: want them on your on defense. And so it was
- 14:04Speaker 5: a credit to both of them. I like the way
- 14:06Speaker 5: Mary plays, I like how aggressive he plays. And Felipe,
- 14:10Speaker 5: you know, he took that hit, he caught the ball
- 14:13Speaker 5: and practice resumed as normal. Now that might have been
- 14:16Speaker 5: another guy, maybe they go at Mary, but Felipe decided
- 14:20Speaker 5: not to.
- 14:21Speaker 4: Dashy.
- 14:21Speaker 6: We were talking about getting you on the show yesterday
- 14:24Speaker 6: and Fitty said that you wanted to come on recently
- 14:26Speaker 6: because you made a reference to Fiddy about something and
- 14:30Speaker 6: he didn't get it, and you you were not happy
- 14:32Speaker 6: with him.
- 14:33Speaker 4: Do you remember what that was about?
- 14:36Speaker 5: It was it. I don't remember specifically, but it was
- 14:40Speaker 5: it was. It was a reference to I think either
- 14:43Speaker 5: it was a movie or a song that Fiddy should
- 14:46Speaker 5: have absolutely known about. Man, this is basic. This is
- 14:50Speaker 5: basic millennial knowledge here, and I was so fitty. It
- 14:55Speaker 5: was that acc media day, and I said, I made
- 14:57Speaker 5: the reference and I wish I knew specifically what it us.
- 15:00Speaker 5: And Fiddy just looked at me and I'm like, you're kidding, right,
- 15:05Speaker 5: he had no idea what I was talking about. And
- 15:08Speaker 5: I'm like, I mean, I was so disappointed with Fiddy.
- 15:12Speaker 3: We welcome to our world. We called that a weekday.
- 15:15Speaker 3: It was in a day's ending. Why by any chance,
- 15:18Speaker 3: because that happens as well. Fiddy, let vashtie down. Uh,
- 15:22Speaker 3: We've got a text her on the text line that says,
- 15:25Speaker 3: if Merek were to do that the Vashty, I'd be
- 15:27Speaker 3: in his face right now defending her honor. So there
- 15:30Speaker 3: you go. You got a gentleman out there, Bashti all right, gentlemen,
- 15:34Speaker 3: I do think he's lying, because I'm not thinking any
- 15:37Speaker 3: any of these guys trying to step the trapeon Merrick.
- 15:39Speaker 4: But anyway, it sounded good. It definitely sounded good.
- 15:42Speaker 3: Felipe got Felipe got a couple of screws loose too,
- 15:44Speaker 3: Vashti in a good way.
- 15:45Speaker 4: You know, when it comes to special teams, you know,
- 15:47Speaker 4: I agree.
- 15:48Speaker 5: Absolutely absolutely, But you know, when you when you pop
- 15:52Speaker 5: your own teammate, you might have another screw loose when
- 15:55Speaker 5: you do that. You ain't just that's just that's a
- 15:58Speaker 5: different that's just a different level of aggression.
- 16:01Speaker 4: It is.
- 16:02Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean marriages. He's gonna make the play whether
- 16:06Speaker 5: you whether you teammate or not. It's office of defense
- 16:10Speaker 5: for him.
- 16:10Speaker 3: He is the exact type of dog that Dan Morgan
- 16:13Speaker 3: was talking about, right, Like, you need guys like that, Vashti,

- 16:58Speaker 4: little Bardi do is broke?
- 16:59Speaker 2: We didn't?
- 16:59Speaker 4: We talked about it, didn't we did we.
- 17:01Speaker 7: We got to it. Yeah, yes, early of members Monday
- 17:03Speaker 7: of last week.
- 17:05Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah. Oh that was my big tease.
- 17:08Speaker 4: Let me get that.
- 17:09Speaker 6: Now we got no idea. How about this man? What
- 17:13Speaker 6: does Adam Gold think Bryce Young is worth? Contract wise?
- 17:16Speaker 4: Oooo? We'll ask that. Sports Radio ninety seven WFNZ.
- 17:37Speaker 8: Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ back and bone with you.
- 17:42Speaker 3: So not only is b if you're looking at the
- 17:44Speaker 3: Falcons and who they're paying money to bone, not only
- 17:47Speaker 3: did they just give Bijon the three year, sixty six
- 17:50Speaker 3: point seventy five million dollar contract, highest pay running back
- 17:54Speaker 3: in the game. It's worth up to with incentive seventy
- 17:57Speaker 3: five million. But the Drake London deal was for four years,
- 18:00Speaker 3: one hundred and forty one million. Remember Kyle Pitts, they
- 18:03Speaker 3: all gotten paid this Offseason's true, Pitt's got three years.
- 18:06Speaker 4: Fifty four million.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Am I the only Panther fan that is like, go
- 18:09Speaker 3: ahead and pay those weapons. I'm not saying that they're not,
- 18:12Speaker 3: you know, great weapons. Although pits is inconsistent, but go
- 18:16Speaker 3: ahead and pay. They've always had skill position guys. Is
- 18:19Speaker 3: their quarterback play gonna be any good, you know? Or
- 18:22Speaker 3: are they gonna end up going searching for another one
- 18:24Speaker 3: here soon? Defensively they've added pieces, but how good they're
- 18:28Speaker 3: gonna be on defense? What about the offensive line? Like
- 18:31Speaker 3: I just I don't feel too threatened by the fact
- 18:34Speaker 3: they're inking these guys personally.
- 18:37Speaker 6: At some point Walker and Pierce will come up at
- 18:39Speaker 6: the same time. Also if they if they're as good
- 18:41Speaker 6: as we think they can be, although Pierce has his
- 18:43Speaker 6: own stuff going on there, but they are allowed to
- 18:45Speaker 6: pay him eventually down the line.
- 18:47Speaker 4: So yeah, go ahead, go ahead.
- 18:48Speaker 6: And pay all the fast dudes and all you want
- 18:50Speaker 6: to all the offensive players. To me, it's the same.
- 18:53Speaker 6: It's it's different people making Falcons decisions, but it's the
- 18:56Speaker 6: same type of decisions.
- 18:57Speaker 3: They always have the weapons. Go ahead and use all
- 19:00Speaker 3: that cap money on your weapons. So that is how
- 19:04Speaker 3: I'm feeling. And you're in the basement this year, Falcons. Alright,
- 19:06Speaker 3: I'm sorry you're in the damn basement.
- 19:08Speaker 4: All right?
- 19:09Speaker 3: Next up, baby, I gotta tell you right now, bone,
- 19:11Speaker 3: I'd a dang near shed a tear.
- 19:13Speaker 1: Now.
- 19:13Speaker 3: I don't know if this is accurate. We'll find out
- 19:15Speaker 3: in the second but a Texter named be Dog texted
- 19:18Speaker 3: us and said that Adam Gold Goldie was being a
- 19:21Speaker 3: homer on yesterday's show that we hear last night we
- 19:24Speaker 3: hear a show nighttime here on WFNZ at seven o'clock.
- 19:27Speaker 3: He says, I've never heard him speak more highly of
- 19:30Speaker 3: the Panthers. And I'm sitting here bone trying to fight
- 19:33Speaker 3: back tears. Can we get Adam gold being an absolute
- 19:37Speaker 3: Panther homer this year? At the very least? Can we
- 19:40Speaker 3: get him being a very positive Panther man?
- 19:43Speaker 4: He's on the ten win board.
- 19:44Speaker 3: He is on the ten win board over here, Adam
- 19:47Speaker 3: gold ninety nine to nine to fan in Riley. And
- 19:49Speaker 3: like I said, week nights here seven o'clock on WFNZ, Goldie,
- 19:53Speaker 3: are you saying nice things about our cats?
- 19:55Speaker 4: Baby? What's going on?
- 19:58Speaker 1: I mean, I'm encouraged. I'll tell you what I really like.
- 20:03Speaker 1: I like the way that Dave Canalis has come around
- 20:07Speaker 1: on Bryce Young. He is talking the way he is
- 20:11Speaker 1: discussing Bryce Young that like the game has slowed down
- 20:15Speaker 1: for him, which is what we always you know here
- 20:17Speaker 1: with athletes, when the game slows down and you process
- 20:20Speaker 1: things so fast that it makes the game slower for you.
- 20:24Speaker 1: I mean, that's the way Dave Canalis is talking. And
- 20:26Speaker 1: I always said when they drafted Bryce Young that if
- 20:31Speaker 1: it were close in terms of ability, then c J.
- 20:36Speaker 1: Straud would have been the pick because of his his
- 20:38Speaker 1: physical measurables. But it's clear that there was something about
- 20:42Speaker 1: Bryce Young that led not just the Panthers, but about
- 20:46Speaker 1: seventy percent of the league would have taken Bryce Young
- 20:48Speaker 1: number one CJ.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Straft.
- 20:51Speaker 1: So there's something about Bryce Young as a quarterback that
- 20:55Speaker 1: separated him from somebody who looked like he was right
- 20:59Speaker 1: out of Central casting.
- 21:01Speaker 4: When it comes to Bryce Young's next contract, which Brad
- 21:05Speaker 4: Tillis was answering questions about yesterday, and they're sort of
- 21:08Speaker 4: still waiting to see what the upside is long term
- 21:12Speaker 4: of Bryce What where? What do you think Bryce ultimately
- 21:15Speaker 4: ends up getting in terms of a deal.
- 21:18Speaker 1: It all depends on how he performed. You know, it's funny.
- 21:20Speaker 1: I'm gonna break it down this way. It depends on
- 21:23Speaker 1: how he performs in the first halves of games. Like
- 21:27Speaker 1: we've seen Bryce at his best in you know, fourth
- 21:31Speaker 1: quarter drives late game situations over times. I mean, he's
- 21:35Speaker 1: been great in those situations, but they haven't let him
- 21:38Speaker 1: really do anything in the first half. It's just been basically,
- 21:42Speaker 1: get us to the fourth quarter and we'll see if
- 21:44Speaker 1: we can win it. I think you guys have probably
- 21:47Speaker 1: seen the number. I mean, the Panthers won eight games
- 21:49Speaker 1: last year in the regular season, but they only took
- 21:53Speaker 1: offensive snaps with the lead about ten percent of the time,
- 21:57Speaker 1: which is insane that you can win eight games.
- 22:01Speaker 3: Like fourth or fifth lewis in the league goalie for
- 22:04Speaker 3: a division champ, it's insane.
- 22:06Speaker 1: I mean, vision division champion is doing a little heavy
- 22:09Speaker 1: one thing there. But still, I mean it's not like
- 22:12Speaker 1: they were four they had four wins. They had eight wins,
- 22:15Speaker 1: and that to me is a function of a lot
- 22:19Speaker 1: of things. It's a little bit of cautious play calling
- 22:22Speaker 1: by the head coach. It's trying to get us to
- 22:24Speaker 1: the fourth quarter with a chance. But if you've just
- 22:28Speaker 1: looked at him in you know, not even just the
- 22:31Speaker 1: fourth quarter, but how about the last half of the
- 22:33Speaker 1: fourth quarter, there's one of the better quarterbacks from the sport.
- 22:37Speaker 1: So but I want to see that in the first half.
- 22:39Speaker 1: I want to see Carolina play with the lead more,
- 22:42Speaker 1: be more aggressive down the field through the passing game
- 22:46Speaker 1: doesn't mean you forget the running game. They're never gonna
- 22:48Speaker 1: do that. That's not Dave Canalis's history anyway. He's a
- 22:51Speaker 1: run he's a you know, he's always valued the run game.
- 22:54Speaker 1: But they have to be more aggressive early, play with
- 22:57Speaker 1: the lead more.
- 23:00Speaker 3: By the way, Goldie, you did kind of drop a
- 23:03Speaker 3: little your Panther positivity there when you said I was
- 23:06Speaker 3: doing heavy lifting with division champs. I never said it
- 23:09Speaker 3: was a good I never said it was a good division, Goldie,
- 23:11Speaker 3: but they were indeed, And I never said we walked
- 23:14Speaker 3: in the front door to get there. We clearly snuck
- 23:16Speaker 3: in the back door when Tampa was Tampa was at
- 23:19Speaker 3: the fridge by and getting a beer, and we snuck
- 23:21Speaker 3: in the back door got the trophy.
- 23:23Speaker 4: There's a there's a text theory.
- 23:25Speaker 6: Now that Goldie has helped the Canes win a Cup,
- 23:28Speaker 6: now he's focused on the Panthers a little bit.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Oh oh, let's focus. Let's make it after Goldie. You
- 23:35Speaker 3: apparently are good luck baby. Oh my goodness, what did
- 23:38Speaker 3: you What do you think, Goldie, of the of the
- 23:42Speaker 3: fifth year eligibility madness the judge in Colorado on Friday
- 23:47Speaker 3: night saying, Hey, everybody that was in that class of
- 23:50Speaker 3: twenty twenty two in all sports that you know, would
- 23:53Speaker 3: have you know, been in their fifth year this year, Well,
- 23:57Speaker 3: now they are eligible. They did issue the Claire vacation, though,
- 24:00Speaker 3: that complicates things a little bit on Sunday where it's like, hey,
- 24:03Speaker 3: this doesn't change any of the portal rules or any
- 24:07Speaker 3: of the eligibility rules, or the revenue share cap or
- 24:09Speaker 3: any of that stuff.
- 24:10Speaker 4: So it does maybe it's a.
- 24:12Speaker 3: Little more restrictive than we first thought, but what do
- 24:15Speaker 3: you think about this? And to Bone's point, like does
- 24:18Speaker 3: anything like does anything here hold up in court? Like
- 24:21Speaker 3: the NC double A is going to appeal, and then
- 24:23Speaker 3: you're gonna have players who are told, well, you didn't
- 24:26Speaker 3: enter the transfer portal quick enough, so you're not going
- 24:29Speaker 3: to be able to go to a different school. Like
- 24:31Speaker 3: what do we have more court cases from here? What
- 24:33Speaker 3: do you think happens?
- 24:35Speaker 1: Do you do you remember Kansas football like in the
- 24:39Speaker 1: eighties and nineties when they were they would routinely go
- 24:43Speaker 1: one in eleven.
- 24:44Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, terrible.
- 24:46Speaker 1: They're they're way better than the NC double A is
- 24:49Speaker 1: in court.
- 24:52Speaker 5: Here.
- 24:53Speaker 1: First of all, when when the five year eligibility for
- 24:58Speaker 1: five years was a now by the NC double A,
- 25:01Speaker 1: I applauded that that's the first and maybe only good
- 25:04Speaker 1: thing the NC double A has actually done, including the
- 25:08Speaker 1: age limit. But I did say at the time how
- 25:11Speaker 1: they are excluding the current class is idiotic to me,
- 25:17Speaker 1: and it will come back to bite them. So I'm
- 25:21Speaker 1: not surprised these players are eligible. I'm also I mean,
- 25:27Speaker 1: I could it be couldn't be appealed? I guess it. Well,
- 25:29Speaker 1: it will be appealed. Could they win the appeal? You
- 25:33Speaker 1: you never know. I don't think they will, And I
- 25:37Speaker 1: also think that the players will sue and get have
- 25:42Speaker 1: granted a little bit more leniency with where they can go,
- 25:47Speaker 1: but there's plenty of spots that need players. If there's
- 25:51Speaker 1: no spots, and I think it will probably be a
- 25:53Speaker 1: case by case basis. If the if the school that
- 25:56Speaker 1: you're attached to doesn't have room for you, uh, then
- 25:59Speaker 1: you'll be allowed that you should be allowed to leave.
- 26:02Speaker 1: I mean, this is an NC double A mistake, and
- 26:04Speaker 1: it was clear that this was going to be a mistake,
- 26:07Speaker 1: But then again, the NCUBA makes mistakes every single day.
- 26:14Speaker 6: How long till a guy say in college basketball that
- 26:18Speaker 6: left school early for the pros? How long till a
- 26:20Speaker 6: mac how lo, until a guy comes back and says,
- 26:23Speaker 6: can I get one more year? A guy from like
- 26:24Speaker 6: a decade ago? How long util a guy says, I've
- 26:27Speaker 6: got one year to go?
- 26:27Speaker 4: Can I come back? And you're looking for a Rodney
- 26:29Speaker 4: Dangerfield back to school moment?
- 26:31Speaker 1: Yeah, my gosh, only for swimming and diving.
- 26:36Speaker 4: Let's talk on the field for a moment here.
- 26:38Speaker 6: Let's get crazy and talk about these football teams in
- 26:41Speaker 6: the state of North Carolina this year. What team do
- 26:44Speaker 6: you think ends up with the most wins and how
- 26:47Speaker 6: much of a chance do you think of ECU being
- 26:50Speaker 6: that team.
- 26:52Speaker 1: Let's take NC State.
- 26:54Speaker 4: Okay, there you go, Goldie.
- 26:56Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go back. I like the Wolf. The
- 27:00Speaker 1: schedule is the schedule sets up well for them? Oh yeah,
- 27:04Speaker 1: if I mean the first five weeks. I mean if
- 27:09Speaker 1: they're four and one after the first five weeks, and
- 27:11Speaker 1: I'm not saying they will be, but if they're four
- 27:13Speaker 1: and one after the first five weeks, then ten wins
- 27:15Speaker 1: is in play. But it's not gonna be easy, you know,
- 27:20Speaker 1: at Virginia to start the season at Vanderbilt. Here's the thing.
- 27:26Speaker 1: They might have a top five quarterback in the country
- 27:29Speaker 1: in CJ. Bailey. And if you have a quarterback like that,
- 27:33Speaker 1: then you're will win a lot of games. There's no
- 27:35Speaker 1: position in any sport that impacts winning more than quarterback does.
- 27:41Speaker 1: And if Bailey takes another step from where he was
- 27:45Speaker 1: a year ago, mcty's gonna win a bunch of football
- 27:47Speaker 1: games because that schedule is not daunting.
- 27:49Speaker 3: Well, yeah, the combination of the of having CJ. Bailey
- 27:52Speaker 3: back for a third year there and the schedule, that's it.
- 27:57Speaker 3: Maya they've got. There's a chance to have a special
- 28:00Speaker 3: season at NC State. By the way, did y'all see
- 28:03Speaker 3: where Cam Newton I'm not now, I'm not acting like
- 28:05Speaker 3: Cam Newton as a college football analysis Kirk Kurbstreet, y'all,
- 28:08Speaker 3: But Cam did quarterback rankings had CJ. Bailey number four
- 28:12Speaker 3: in the country.
- 28:12Speaker 4: Oh wow. How about that?
- 28:14Speaker 1: About my man Mike Felder, who does a lot of
- 28:17Speaker 1: work for Serious XM. He thinks that Bailey could end
- 28:21Speaker 1: up being the best quarterback in the country at the
- 28:23Speaker 1: end of.
- 28:23Speaker 3: And that's coming from a Carolina guy. Felder. How about that?
- 28:26Speaker 3: I mean, if I know that Miami has met. Miami's
- 28:30Speaker 3: got a lot of guys and Kevin Jennings at sm
- 28:33Speaker 3: You there's a lot of guys that may get in
- 28:36Speaker 3: the way. But if you're putting a bet down for CJ.
- 28:38Speaker 3: Bailey as ACC Player of the Year, might not be
- 28:41Speaker 3: a bad idea. What uder the radar guy there for that?
- 28:44Speaker 1: Not at all. It's probably gonna end up being one
- 28:48Speaker 1: of the guys from Miami, whether it's Tony or Fletcher
- 28:53Speaker 1: or mensa. But yeah, if you're looking for somebody down
- 28:56Speaker 1: the board, I think CJ. Bailey is a great shout
- 29:00Speaker 1: quarterback at CAL. Whatever is three letters are can't pronounce
- 29:05Speaker 1: his name, He's another guy.
- 29:07Speaker 6: JKS Jennings Jenny I got for Jennings from SMU may
- 29:11Speaker 6: put up some monster numbers this year too.
- 29:13Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about it. And their schedule is I
- 29:17Speaker 1: think Louisville's got the better schedule than SMU. But if
- 29:22Speaker 1: you look at Cal's schedule, I mean there's I'm not
- 29:24Speaker 1: saying that there's a lot of easy games, but if
- 29:27Speaker 1: Cal is good, and I think Cal might end up
- 29:29Speaker 1: being good, they could go seven to zero and be
- 29:35Speaker 1: a top fifteen team by the time I think it's
- 29:38Speaker 1: Notre Dame they play before they take their first loss,
- 29:40Speaker 1: or maybe it's Miami. But Cal's got a favorable schedule too.
- 29:45Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's so much of it with these un
- 29:47Speaker 3: with this, with these giant conferences.
- 29:49Speaker 4: You know this.
- 29:49Speaker 3: Everybody's a fan knows it comes down to your schedule.
- 29:54Speaker 3: So I'm definitely excited about about watching NC State this year.
- 29:58Speaker 4: Who is who would you go next? Best ACC team
- 30:02Speaker 4: in the triangle of those next three? Duke, you'd go
- 30:06Speaker 4: over with? What about what? You don't?
- 30:07Speaker 3: Okay, Well, why don't you to argue with you? I
- 30:10Speaker 3: asked you the question? You like that bonus progress by me?
- 30:15Speaker 3: So you say Duke over Wake and I didn't think
- 30:17Speaker 3: you'd say Carolina. Why Duke.
- 30:20Speaker 1: I think that's the coaching staff that knows what they're doing. Yeah,
- 30:25Speaker 1: I mean I think they I think they're faster, stronger, bigger.
- 30:28Speaker 1: The only question is will the quarterback play hold it back?
- 30:35Speaker 1: I mean they've had last year's quarterback play. The thing
- 30:38Speaker 1: is Darrian Mensa was great last year, but there were
- 30:41Speaker 1: games where he sucked and it like the game at
- 30:47Speaker 1: Tulane and he was a mess and their defense didn't
- 30:49Speaker 1: play well in that game either. He wasn't good enough
- 30:52Speaker 1: at Yukon. But it's still, you know, top fifteen quarterback
- 30:59Speaker 1: player around the country, and uh, it's gonna drop off
- 31:04Speaker 1: this year, so Duke's gonna have to But they could
- 31:07Speaker 1: end up with the same record as they had a
- 31:08Speaker 1: year ago before the Bowl game.
- 31:10Speaker 6: They won nine games and Malik Murphy wasn't great two
- 31:13Speaker 6: years ago. Yeah, I mean honestly, he really wasn't. They
- 31:15Speaker 6: won kind of expiring.
- 31:17Speaker 1: That's why they fired Malik Murphy. They told him to go.
- 31:20Speaker 4: They knew they could upgrade.
- 31:23Speaker 3: But yeah, and Miam became called not a bad bet
- 31:26Speaker 3: Manny Diaz is overachieved. They're a duke. It feels like
- 31:29Speaker 3: dickerd overachieved last year. But we'll see what happens this year.
- 31:32Speaker 3: At way, Goldie, you are the man. Everybody listening to
- 31:35Speaker 3: him on wfn Z seven to nine on week nights

- 32:25Speaker 3: you hopefully. Make sure I swear I'm gonna be there.

- 34:10Speaker 4: Fitty, I didn't know Neon Trees sings.
- 34:12Speaker 3: Everybody talks heavy about it, talks heavy about it, talks.
- 34:15Speaker 4: He's gonna win a whisper. Oh that's a good bop. Yeah,
- 34:18Speaker 4: that's good. They're gonna be playing that bone for the
- 34:20Speaker 4: Miami game. Can I do my updates? I keep forgetting.
- 34:24Speaker 4: You're supposed to be doing something, all right, go ahead,
- 34:26Speaker 4: go ahead.
- 34:26Speaker 7: I have to come to y'all and humble myself before
- 34:29Speaker 7: both of y'all in the audience. Last week got at
- 34:32Speaker 7: training camp, I had the mandate talent doesn't carry equipment
- 34:37Speaker 7: while I hauled us to and fro Well yesterday, as
- 34:41Speaker 7: I was leaving training camp with Kyle Bailey, he carried equipment.
- 34:45Speaker 7: And I feel like I have let you down. I look,
- 34:48Speaker 7: I've let the audience down. He did take a shot
- 34:51Speaker 7: at Charles. Why y'all don't carry the equipment, but he
- 34:53Speaker 7: should here give me one of those jow you maye
- 34:55Speaker 7: me like a bad guy. He did carry equipment out
- 34:58Speaker 7: of Bank of America.
- 34:59Speaker 6: STADIU multiple times. Although we left you behind at one
- 35:04Speaker 6: point and you were dragging this stuff on. That probably
- 35:08Speaker 6: was a bad guy moved by also are to carry
- 35:12Speaker 6: the equiment. Also, we didn't exactly help you carry across
- 35:16Speaker 6: the road when cars were coming, but we did offer though.
- 35:20Speaker 4: If any almost got ran over last it's all right.
- 35:22Speaker 4: Tell you made it through. Was that your update? Bet Well?
- 35:24Speaker 4: I wasn't gonna do the MMB trade deadline?
- 35:26Speaker 6: No, no baseball right now? Please God, you're wondering what happened,
- 35:35Speaker 6: go back and listen to tix AM.
- 35:37Speaker 3: The Brave signed a bunch of guys, like five guys
- 35:39Speaker 3: are traded for five guys you got to google?
- 35:41Speaker 6: All right, that's the update for the lost in horrible fashion.
- 35:44Speaker 6: But I could never mention the Yankees ever again. On
- 35:46Speaker 6: the radio show. When we come back on the Mack
- 35:48Speaker 6: and Bone Show, the Panthers first depth chart is released.
- 35:51Speaker 6: Are there any surprises. There's a contract extension for an
- 35:55Speaker 6: ACC coach, and we've got some big college football scheduling
- 35:59Speaker 6: news as well.
- 36:00Speaker 4: On Sports Radio seven FNZ. It meant a lot, you know.
- 36:37Speaker 9: I saw it on Instagram and I had walked up
- 36:40Speaker 9: to him and I told him I appreciate him for
- 36:42Speaker 9: you know what I'm saying, shown love and yeah, just
- 36:45Speaker 9: showing love to me. And yeah, it just means a
- 36:47Speaker 9: lot coming from a guy like that, you know, first
- 36:50Speaker 9: round guy, guy that's made a name for himself in
- 36:52Speaker 9: the NFL. And then you asked what I did this
- 36:56Speaker 9: offseason to improve my game? I mean, I feel like
- 36:59Speaker 9: I just try to tone in on just everything in
- 37:04Speaker 9: my life as a whole. Like I improved my sleep
- 37:07Speaker 9: quality how long I go to sleep. I improve my
- 37:10Speaker 9: nutrition and start taking you know what I'm saying, vitamins
- 37:14Speaker 9: I start reading more. You know what I'm saying. I
- 37:17Speaker 9: just tried to execute discipline in all areas of my life.
- 37:22Speaker 3: There you go, Princely talking about the compliment that Jalen
- 37:27Speaker 3: Phillips gave him. Jalen Phillips, You've missed it last week.
- 37:30Speaker 3: So that's the best pass rusher we got on this team.
- 37:33Speaker 3: You know, he's got to put it all together. But
- 37:35Speaker 3: he has the past rushing goods, no doubt about it.
- 37:39Speaker 3: And there is Princely talking about improving himself in many
- 37:42Speaker 3: ways off the field.
- 37:43Speaker 4: Man, I hope he can ball out bone.
- 37:46Speaker 3: I hate losing him on Twitter, but if I hate
- 37:49Speaker 3: losing some of those Twitter moments, but if it could
- 37:52Speaker 3: help him ball out, take that next step, get more focus,
- 37:56Speaker 3: it could end up being an awesome move and tweets, Yes,
- 38:01Speaker 3: that's true, that's more important.
- 38:03Speaker 4: That's more to a T shirt sacks over tweets. In
- 38:08Speaker 4: the show.
- 38:09Speaker 6: While we're all sad for the score in news and
- 38:12Speaker 6: the setback that he's had this year, there can be
- 38:15Speaker 6: a positive that if Princely does make that leap this
- 38:18Speaker 6: year that we thought scrdon was going to make, well,
- 38:21Speaker 6: then next year we have two guys that are both
- 38:25Speaker 6: extremely young talented, but not that Princely's not young now,
- 38:28Speaker 6: but he if he's young and makes the leap this
- 38:32Speaker 6: year to the level that we thought Gordon was at,
- 38:34Speaker 6: we could have two guys next year playing.
- 38:36Speaker 4: At a high level on that side.
- 38:37Speaker 3: Yeah, he could benefit from getting the extra reps, right,
- 38:40Speaker 3: even if it's hard to see that right, that benefit
- 38:43Speaker 3: right now because we want Nick Gordon back, he could
- 38:46Speaker 3: benefit and then by next year you could end up
- 38:49Speaker 3: being stronger because of it, no doubt about it. Princely
- 38:52Speaker 3: on the depth chart, because I want to go over
- 38:53Speaker 3: this depth chart, Bony, we are recognizing full disclaimer here,
- 38:58Speaker 3: we do realize that this depth chart could be something
- 39:01Speaker 3: bone that Sir Perr and jj Janssen put together in
- 39:06Speaker 3: the cooler in the out outside cooler.
- 39:11Speaker 4: Busy right now, What.
- 39:14Speaker 3: I'm trying to say is we do realize that it
- 39:16Speaker 3: might not be the coaches sitting there thinking like this
- 39:19Speaker 3: has to be the perfect depth chart, but it gives
- 39:23Speaker 3: us something to talk about because for the first time
- 39:26Speaker 3: yesterday the depth chart was released. As far as Princely goes,
- 39:30Speaker 3: he is in that second string spot outside linebacker. He
- 39:34Speaker 3: is listed as behind Jalen Phillips, and then on the
- 39:37Speaker 3: other side, Bone, it's Trevis Gibson on the second string,
- 39:42Speaker 3: right behind Patrick Jones. What did anything stick out to you,
- 39:47Speaker 3: Bone about this depth chart? Anything surprise you about the
- 39:50Speaker 3: depth chart.
- 39:51Speaker 6: We'll start with the defense because you brought that up first.
- 39:53Speaker 6: I think Cam Jackson being with the starters was probably
- 39:57Speaker 6: one of the more surprising things of the whole thing.
- 40:00Speaker 6: Not that you know, there's not room to to for
- 40:04Speaker 6: someone to take a spot there without Ashawn Robinson, but
- 40:07Speaker 6: I feel like the hype of Cam Jackson is starting
- 40:10Speaker 6: to grow a little more as we go through this offseason,
- 40:13Speaker 6: and it says it right there that he's thought of
- 40:15Speaker 6: that highly to at least for now, be listed next.
- 40:18Speaker 4: To Darrick Brown.
- 40:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I would have thought Lee Hunter, Derek Brown, Bobbi Brown.
- 40:22Speaker 3: I would have thought Lee Hunter. Now, this may be
- 40:23Speaker 3: the case of the coaching staff dangling the carrot in
- 40:27Speaker 3: front of Lee Hunter and saying, you ain't there yet, right,
- 40:31Speaker 3: you ain't there yet. You're not our starter. But it
- 40:34Speaker 3: also could just reflect the camp that Cam Jackson has had.
- 40:38Speaker 3: He's a second year guy, second year in this defense,
- 40:41Speaker 3: He's got more experience, He is more of a true
- 40:43Speaker 3: nose than Lee Hunter. Lee Hunter is more of a
- 40:46Speaker 3: you know, d tackle, it's going to get that penetration,
- 40:49Speaker 3: more of a three technique guy. Cam Hunter is more
- 40:51Speaker 3: your flat out, big in nose tackle that occupies blockers
- 40:56Speaker 3: and as you saw with Sam Poor Heck yesterday in
- 40:58Speaker 3: one on ones often just moves them backwards like they're toddlers.
- 41:03Speaker 3: So I don't know that'll be interesting battle. I don't
- 41:05Speaker 3: think that battle's over by any stretch, but that's definitely notable,
- 41:09Speaker 3: no doubt about it.
- 41:10Speaker 4: And good on Cam Jackson.
- 41:11Speaker 3: He's another guy that could be an X factor, a
- 41:13Speaker 3: guy that you know, we weren't necessarily come into camp
- 41:17Speaker 3: banking on, but man, it would be nice.
- 41:19Speaker 6: I thought he was a guy they were developing for
- 41:21Speaker 6: the future. But if he's ready to go now, then
- 41:23Speaker 6: by all means go throw people out of the club
- 41:25Speaker 6: with their big time, big time, big old bouncers on
- 41:28Speaker 6: the UH with the beas street boys, each.
- 41:31Speaker 3: Street boy, as far as cornerback goes. Obviously, Mike jack
- 41:35Speaker 3: and J. C. Horn are listed as a starting corners
- 41:37Speaker 3: on the Panthers first depth chart. Behind them, Shaw Smith,
- 41:41Speaker 3: Wade and Corey Thornton are behind you know Mike Jack
- 41:45Speaker 3: and Horn respectively. Vashti brought this up. She was a
- 41:48Speaker 3: little surprised that will Lee was third string, but it's
- 41:53Speaker 3: I don't think it's that again, that might be giving
- 41:56Speaker 3: the rookie something to strive for, right, let's make you
- 42:00Speaker 3: work for it, rook But by all accounts, Bone will
- 42:02Speaker 3: Lee has been out there and can Alice did say
- 42:04Speaker 3: it's been up and down yesterday, Like, look at yesterday's
- 42:07Speaker 3: practice for will Lee. He's been playing a ton with
- 42:09Speaker 3: the first string though outside when Horn goes inside and lea.
- 42:14Speaker 3: Yesterday's practice had three pass breakups.
- 42:16Speaker 4: But then he also Bone had a penalty on the
- 42:18Speaker 4: final drive and got lost by t Mac on.
- 42:21Speaker 3: The final final play. So it's it's it's been up
- 42:24Speaker 3: and down for him. But that might be a case
- 42:26Speaker 3: of them want him.
- 42:27Speaker 4: To work for it.
- 42:28Speaker 6: Yeah, you know on the offensive side, Jimmy Horn being
- 42:33Speaker 6: second team, why not over Metsh.
- 42:37Speaker 4: I think that's surprising so far. Why are you calling
- 42:39Speaker 4: him mech bone?
- 42:40Speaker 5: What?
- 42:41Speaker 4: He just keep calling him mechname? You're trying to make
- 42:44Speaker 4: metch happen? Because I can't figure out if it's estill.
- 42:50Speaker 6: Yeah, it doesn't seem to be confusing pr told me
- 42:53Speaker 6: it's Mechi, but I'm going I'm just called him, call
- 42:56Speaker 6: him big Match.
- 42:57Speaker 3: Ninety nine percent of the free world calls him John Mechi.
- 43:00Speaker 3: But there are there is a bio out there that
- 43:04Speaker 3: explains that it is actually pronounced Mechi.
- 43:07Speaker 4: That's why I just go with it. I don't know what.
- 43:10Speaker 4: Why do I always sound like the ladies man? When
- 43:12Speaker 4: I said Mechi.
- 43:15Speaker 6: And sounds like Michael Strahan, that surprised me. Yeah, definitely,
- 43:21Speaker 6: I think that. I don't think both guy, I don't.
- 43:24Speaker 6: I thought Jimmy Horn wasn't making this team. Honestly, when
- 43:26Speaker 6: I left fan Fast, I think it's going to be Tea,
- 43:30Speaker 6: Matt Cocher, Xcel, Tremaine More. I thought that Jimmy Horn
- 43:35Speaker 6: would be on the way out of this thing. But
- 43:37Speaker 6: he's ahead of Mechi on the depth chart. Yeah, it's
- 43:39Speaker 6: they broke it down three wide receivers on like in
- 43:41Speaker 6: first string. So it's t Mat, Cocher, and Excel all
- 43:44Speaker 6: considered first string on this first Panthers depth chart, and
- 43:47Speaker 6: then Tremayne backs up team act More backs up Cocher,
- 43:51Speaker 6: and then Horn backs up league get so based on
- 43:54Speaker 6: that they would have your boy match bone in the
- 43:57Speaker 6: seventh spot essentially, and jaseim Reed is there with him
- 44:00Speaker 6: on third string.
- 44:01Speaker 4: Jimmy Horn also, Bone got the nod on the depth
- 44:04Speaker 4: chart at return man.
- 44:07Speaker 3: He got the nod. That's why he may get maybe
- 44:09Speaker 3: maybe that's why they might lean his one. He got
- 44:11Speaker 3: the nod at kick or No. I actually smack me Bone,
- 44:17Speaker 3: smack me and call me Charlie. Oh he's really he's
- 44:22Speaker 3: really coming over to dust. There you go for etn
- 44:28Speaker 3: is number one on kick returns and punt returns, so
- 44:31Speaker 3: I take that back. Horn was the first one up
- 44:34Speaker 3: for the returns at fan Fest, got into my hand
- 44:36Speaker 3: second chart here.
- 44:38Speaker 6: But still though you wonder if it because he can
- 44:41Speaker 6: do that stuff, if need be, if he maybe has
- 44:43Speaker 6: the edge over a match.
- 44:44Speaker 3: My feeling is I still kind of feel like Jimmy
- 44:48Speaker 3: Horn might not make it, you know that's my Senseise. Yeah,
- 44:53Speaker 3: the depth chart, you know, I don't know how much.
- 44:56Speaker 3: That's why I did the disclaimer at the start of
- 44:58Speaker 3: the depth chart. We don't really know what's going on.
- 45:00Speaker 3: But again, Mechier, it's not exactly Bone.
- 45:02Speaker 4: I know he had.
- 45:05Speaker 3: I know he had the health issue when he first
- 45:07Speaker 3: came into the league, and I know he has familiarity
- 45:09Speaker 3: with Price, but it's not exactly like like Mechi has
- 45:13Speaker 3: been some sort of star. I mean, Hunter Renfro came
- 45:17Speaker 3: in last year and I think we were shocked at
- 45:18Speaker 3: the non factor that he was, you know what I mean,
- 45:21Speaker 3: And Mechi has never been as good as Hunter Recchi.
- 45:24Speaker 4: Mechi may be the name that we know, but may
- 45:26Speaker 4: not be a game that translates at this point.
- 45:29Speaker 3: Who do we think is definitely making it wide receiver
- 45:31Speaker 3: team at Cocher Excel, Tremaine and Moore right, Yes, we
- 45:34Speaker 3: think they're definitely making Tremaine special teams and Tremain makes
- 45:38Speaker 3: plays too.
- 45:38Speaker 6: Man, he's flying. Every time you watch practice, you see
- 45:42Speaker 6: eighty seven doing something he does. A fan fest was
- 45:44Speaker 6: great the other night. So Stone Foresight, by the way,
- 45:48Speaker 6: backs up Monroe, Freeling and Rashid Walker. Everybody pray for
- 45:54Speaker 6: our tackles. I don't want to be too mean to
- 45:57Speaker 6: old Stony man because I walked right past him at practice.
- 46:00Speaker 6: So I'm like, that is a giant man that could
- 46:02Speaker 6: kick our rear. Ends if he hears his radio show,
- 46:04Speaker 6: if he's if he's if he's moving up the depth chart,
- 46:08Speaker 6: I'm going to church on Sundays more often, Brady Christiansen
- 46:12Speaker 6: the backup right guard to Hunt, Sam Hack backup center,
- 46:16Speaker 6: and Chandlers Devalla backup left guard.
- 46:19Speaker 4: So there you go.
- 46:20Speaker 3: You gotta love it, baby, you gotta love it. It's
- 46:22Speaker 3: so it's fun to talk about, but we don't know
- 46:24Speaker 3: what it means. And of course they'll play Thursday night
- 46:27Speaker 3: in can'ton No starters, No guys that are nailed down starters,
- 46:31Speaker 3: according to Canalis, only guys that.
- 46:33Speaker 4: Are competing for starting jobs, he said, playing.
- 46:35Speaker 6: When we come back, Brent Tillo's with some very interesting
- 46:38Speaker 6: comments on Bryce's contract situation. What does it tell us
- 46:42Speaker 6: about Bryce's future in Carolina? We examine that. Sports Radio
