- 1:22Speaker 1: it comes to trademark. George, I, Gordon and I are
- 1:27Speaker 1: the original fathers of the show.
- 1:28Speaker 2: Welcome back, Hey, good to be part of To Chicks
- 1:32Speaker 2: some two guys.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Yeah, and we're the way where there's a will, there's
- 1:37Speaker 1: a way. Braym All coming, a busy chat ruined as
- 1:40Speaker 1: fast is thirty minus going and here we go, Brandon,
- 1:43Speaker 1: I you forty nine Ers and Stealers have a potential
- 1:45Speaker 1: deal in place. Is he coming or is he going?
- 1:48Speaker 1: I don't know, Jennifer Matthews Lewis you tell me I
- 1:51Speaker 1: should have had another footnote. He didn't want to go
- 1:53Speaker 1: play for the New England Patriots because of their quarterback situation,
- 1:56Speaker 1: So you have a double edged sword, Jennifer. Okay, do
- 2:00Speaker 1: you think he should stay with the forty nine Ers
- 2:01Speaker 1: or do you think he's gonna go with the steel As.
- 2:04Speaker 5: I don't know that he's gonna go with the Steelers,
- 2:07Speaker 5: but I do think he should go. I do think
- 2:10Speaker 5: that four because he requested the trade, right, so there's
- 2:14Speaker 5: something there now. He and coach Wilkes actually got to
- 2:18Speaker 5: be really tight last year.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Then I don't know.
- 2:21Speaker 5: Why because offense defense, But coach Wilkes is back in
- 2:26Speaker 5: a voluntary position with Panthers, and I'm just saying I
- 2:30Speaker 5: would love that. But you know, we kind of have
- 2:32Speaker 5: our own quarterback situation going on. Up here too, so
- 2:36Speaker 5: you know, I think he's going to go. I don't
- 2:39Speaker 5: think he'll be the Steelers, though, I really don't. Mike
- 2:42Speaker 5: Tomlin hasn't taken a team to the Super Bowl since
- 2:45Speaker 5: the year after he took over the team.
- 2:48Speaker 1: What are your thoughts about him not wanting to go
- 2:50Speaker 1: to New England?
- 2:50Speaker 5: Though, I think that New England's going to end up
- 2:56Speaker 5: starting Drake May, and I think Denk and Drake May
- 3:01Speaker 5: would be freaking magical.
- 3:03Speaker 1: But I'm for it.
- 3:05Speaker 4: I'm not going there, but I mean I like Dake
- 3:07Speaker 4: May too.
- 3:08Speaker 1: So you all right, Georgia touch about the brand man, Well,
- 3:15Speaker 1: you know, it's typical of pro football.
- 3:18Speaker 2: You know, camps are underway and we still got issues
- 3:21Speaker 2: with guys holding out, guys wanted to be traded and
- 3:24Speaker 2: all that. But Brandon's a good player, you know, twenty
- 3:28Speaker 2: six years old. He really is a good guy to
- 3:33Speaker 2: have around. If it does not work out, and it
- 3:36Speaker 2: doesn't sound it's gonna work out at Frisco, I don't
- 3:39Speaker 2: see why he can't help out, whether it's New England
- 3:42Speaker 2: or another team involved. But I it's you know, it's
- 3:46Speaker 2: too bad because you know, they obviously want to get
- 3:50Speaker 2: in the Zuper Bowl this year, just like the team
- 3:52Speaker 2: they beat in the NFL Championship NFC Championship game. Excuse
- 3:56Speaker 2: me the allions, but San Francisco's got a lot of
- 3:59Speaker 2: good parts. It's in a lot of great program, and
- 4:02Speaker 2: I just you know, this is not something that they
- 4:04Speaker 2: really wanted to have happened in training camp, let me
- 4:07Speaker 2: tell you that much. But yeah, he's good enough to
- 4:09Speaker 2: play on almost every team. We know that New England
- 4:12Speaker 2: would be a cool place, but I don't think it's
- 4:14Speaker 2: going to happen either, Candy.
- 4:21Speaker 3: You know, he can play with Rock Purty, or he
- 4:27Speaker 3: can play with a rookie Drake May, which he's already
- 4:30Speaker 3: said he doesn't like want to go to New England,
- 4:34Speaker 3: or he can go to the Steelers. Let's see Russell
- 4:38Speaker 3: Wilson or Justin Field's controversy. We don't know who's starting
- 4:42Speaker 3: there either. Why I mean, I'm sorry, but why would
- 4:47Speaker 3: there Obviously is something wrong in San Francisco. Obviously he
- 4:51Speaker 3: doesn't want to be there. He's asked for the trade,
- 4:54Speaker 3: but honestly, that is the best spot for him out
- 4:59Speaker 3: of those teams. And I've heard that Cleveland is also
- 5:02Speaker 3: interested in him as well. But out of those teams,
- 5:07Speaker 3: San Francisco still is by far has the best chance
- 5:11Speaker 3: to advance. So my question to him is what are
- 5:18Speaker 3: you playing for? Are you playing for your career? Are
- 5:22Speaker 3: you playing for super Bowl?
- 5:24Speaker 2: What?
- 5:25Speaker 3: What is your end game? Because if your end game
- 5:27Speaker 3: isn't the super Bowl, then sure go to one of
- 5:29Speaker 3: those other teams, because I none of those teams, None
- 5:32Speaker 3: of those other teams are going to the super Bowl
- 5:34Speaker 3: this year. By far, San Francisco could, Yes, mister, what
- 5:41Speaker 3: about Detroit?
- 5:45Speaker 4: Okay, what if you went to Detroit? Because Kyle Sheenahan
- 5:50Speaker 4: don't know how to close. Sorry, played of enough times
- 5:54Speaker 4: in the NFC South Dude, don't know how to close.
- 5:56Speaker 5: He was the OC when you know, the most infamous
- 6:00Speaker 5: New England comeback came out.
- 6:03Speaker 3: So the thing is, the thing is is a team
- 6:08Speaker 3: has got to want him and want someone that wants
- 6:13Speaker 3: out of There's a reason why he wants out, like there,
- 6:16Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like there are some teams
- 6:18Speaker 3: that are gonna take how should I say the rejects
- 6:21Speaker 3: or the problem not that he's a reject, but that
- 6:24Speaker 3: he's rejecting the team that he's on.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Right, that's true, that's true.
- 6:31Speaker 3: Some teams will go for that. Some teams don't want
- 6:34Speaker 3: to go for that. They don't want that because that
- 6:36Speaker 3: if he if he wants out of his current situation,
- 6:38Speaker 3: which is not a bad situation, what would he maybe
- 6:43Speaker 3: want out of one of those other situations?
- 6:47Speaker 2: And I don't think Dan Campbell is going to take
- 6:49Speaker 2: a guy who is necessarily disgruntled or has a chip
- 6:54Speaker 2: on his shoulder that much. I don't think that's gonna
- 6:57Speaker 2: fit in in Detroit, even though they still could use
- 7:00Speaker 2: a good receiver, as we know, but I don't think
- 7:02Speaker 2: he's a Campbell kind of player. I don't think they
- 7:04Speaker 2: would want him.
- 7:06Speaker 1: You know what, Georgia just took the words out of
- 7:08Speaker 1: my mouth. Okay, whether I have much of a voice
- 7:10Speaker 1: or not, I agree with you. I don't think that
- 7:12Speaker 1: him and Campbell would They could butt heats. But really,
- 7:15Speaker 1: I think the best place where I'm in San Francisco.
- 7:17Speaker 1: I really do, Rock Purty, You've already proven you can
- 7:19Speaker 1: win there. I think all he's looking for is a
- 7:21Speaker 1: contract extension that he feels his fair market value, and
- 7:25Speaker 1: the forty nine ers have yet to give it to him.
- 7:27Speaker 1: As I understand where we're currently at with that situation,
- 7:30Speaker 1: they're still in the negotiating part of it, So I
- 7:32Speaker 1: have a feeling this situation to get results in ar later.
- 7:35Speaker 1: My prediction is he stays in San Francisco. All right,
- 7:39Speaker 1: let's move on to the next topic. Form in Michigan
- 7:41Speaker 1: over and JJ McCarthy suffered to Minisa he's done for
- 7:45Speaker 1: the season. What's your take on this? I personally, I'll
- 7:49Speaker 1: lead off with this myself. I thought this should have
- 7:51Speaker 1: been a redsher ear for McCarthy, and he's holding a clipboard.
- 7:54Speaker 1: It's going to be a resher ear for all the
- 7:56Speaker 1: wrong reasons. So you know, I feel bad for the
- 7:59Speaker 1: Bankings about what the vision they're and you hate to
- 8:01Speaker 1: see you start your number one draft choice go down
- 8:04Speaker 1: due to an injury like this, let alone of meniscus problem.
- 8:07Speaker 1: But you know McCarthy will be all right next year
- 8:11Speaker 1: and this will be a richer year. Plus the fact
- 8:13Speaker 1: that you got Sam Donald, who now finally has a
- 8:16Speaker 1: chance to fit in with a good team. He's been
- 8:18Speaker 1: in a tough situation in other spots. Carolina didn't do
- 8:21Speaker 1: him any favors, nothing against him at all, and the Jets,
- 8:24Speaker 1: well that was dysfunctional anyway. So I'm not holding those
- 8:27Speaker 1: two situations against them. But I'm happy for Sam Donald
- 8:32Speaker 1: that he finally has an opportunity to have a fresh
- 8:35Speaker 1: start out in Minnesota. I'll turn it over to Jennifer.
- 8:38Speaker 1: You were closer to that situation out in Carolina, I.
- 8:42Speaker 5: Will agree, like honestly, like we were given the Jets
- 8:47Speaker 5: a really good run for their money on most how
- 8:50Speaker 5: many quarterbacks you could have and a short time period,
- 8:54Speaker 5: because we all know the Jets or quarterback purgatory. I'm
- 9:00Speaker 5: excited for his Sam Darnold, I think he deserves a shy.
- 9:02Speaker 5: When he did step in for Bruck pretty last year,
- 9:05Speaker 5: he did pretty solid.
- 9:07Speaker 4: I mean he's got the talent.
- 9:09Speaker 3: But again.
- 9:12Speaker 5: With the Panthers, there's been so much dysfunction. Our first
- 9:17Speaker 5: five years were better than our last five years, so
- 9:20Speaker 5: I feel bad for I understood why there was a
- 9:24Speaker 5: max exodus of players for my team.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I do.
- 9:29Speaker 1: Okay turn up.
- 9:31Speaker 3: Candy McCarthy is going to be the first round one
- 9:36Speaker 3: quarterback of the Common Draft era to miss his entire
- 9:39Speaker 3: rookie season due to an injury.
- 9:42Speaker 4: What a ar last year.
- 9:47Speaker 3: His rookie season.
- 9:49Speaker 5: Yeah, Anthony Richardson's rookie season was completely messed too, because.
- 9:55Speaker 3: This season or did he play any snaps?
- 9:57Speaker 1: I thought he played one or two games if I remember, I.
- 10:00Speaker 4: Think so the season. I may be wrong. I can't remember.
- 10:05Speaker 1: I think it well. I imagine we'll have this figured
- 10:08Speaker 1: out before. I have a feeling you played one or
- 10:10Speaker 1: two games. But he had a shortened season as well,
- 10:13Speaker 1: you know. But that's what said predicament that McCarthy's in.
- 10:17Speaker 1: Can't do anything else.
- 10:18Speaker 3: You want to add to that, I do so, No,
- 10:20Speaker 3: that's okay. So if you had caught the Chicks show earlier,
- 10:24Speaker 3: we said that the Jets was quarterback purgatory, but if
- 10:29Speaker 3: you think about it, quarterback injuries devastated the Vikings in
- 10:32Speaker 3: twenty twenty three season, forcing them to start four different
- 10:37Speaker 3: signal callers over the campaign, and they finished with a
- 10:41Speaker 3: record of seven and ten. Now they play in what
- 10:44Speaker 3: inarguably is Sam Darnold's going to have his hands full
- 10:47Speaker 3: because they play in a tough division. Let's face it,
- 10:51Speaker 3: the Lions, the Packers are improved, and the Bears are improved.
- 10:55Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know how far they'll go with
- 10:57Speaker 3: Caleb Williams obviously, but they've got a lot of weapons
- 11:01Speaker 3: around him too. So Sam Donald is gonna have his
- 11:04Speaker 3: his hands full. I honestly, I obviously I am a
- 11:11Speaker 3: Packer fan, and you all know that I think that
- 11:17Speaker 3: rookies should sit their first year and learn. Now how
- 11:23Speaker 3: much is JJ gonna learn from Sam Donald That remains
- 11:27Speaker 3: to be seen, but I do think there is. It's
- 11:31Speaker 3: worked in Green Bay to sit your quarterbacks and let
- 11:34Speaker 3: them watch, observe, really learn the playbook, really learn how
- 11:41Speaker 3: to watch and see how quick because college football is
- 11:45Speaker 3: very different than NFL football and to be able to
- 11:48Speaker 3: read all these schemes and stuff like that. I think
- 11:51Speaker 3: sitting on the sideline will help JJ McCarthy especially. And
- 11:56Speaker 3: this is what and I some of you might disagree
- 12:00Speaker 3: with this. JJ McCarthy, I don't think is top elite quarterback.
- 12:06Speaker 3: I don't think he's a bad quarterback. But I think
- 12:09Speaker 3: Michigan really relied on the run, and so I don't
- 12:12Speaker 3: know that we saw all of the talent that maybe
- 12:15Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy has. But I think for him, because he's
- 12:19Speaker 3: not a top echelon quarterback, that he'll benefit more from
- 12:26Speaker 3: sitting a year.
- 12:28Speaker 1: I think, well, remember one thing, Candy and Jennifer, Okay,
- 12:31Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell is a head coach, and we know he's
- 12:34Speaker 1: a great offensive mine. All right, George Eichorn, he'll have finals.
- 12:38Speaker 1: We're on this and then we're going to talk about
- 12:39Speaker 1: the Panthers. Yeah.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Well, I feel bad for him, obviously following his collegiate
- 12:44Speaker 2: career twenty seven and one as a starter for the
- 12:48Speaker 2: Michigan Wolverines, and obviously I'm last year's championship team. You know,
- 12:53Speaker 2: he was looking forward to to, you know, throwing the
- 12:57Speaker 2: guys like Justin Jefferson and TJ. Hawkins and Addison. But
- 13:03Speaker 2: I do agree. The fact is that he will be
- 13:06Speaker 2: able to observe and learn. Like you guys said, hold
- 13:09Speaker 2: the clipboard. They're saying goes. But I also think that
- 13:13Speaker 2: it will be a blow to the Vikings chances because Darnald, yeah,
- 13:18Speaker 2: is more of a veteran. But the fact is is
- 13:20Speaker 2: you don't have a younger, more versatile quarterback coming off
- 13:25Speaker 2: the bench like they would have had with a healthy McCarthy. Yeah.
- 13:30Speaker 2: I mean, you know what you said, Candy about not
- 13:33Speaker 2: being up for echelon. Yeah, I guess. I mean all
- 13:36Speaker 2: these quarterbacks that were drafted, as we know in Detroit
- 13:38Speaker 2: at the draft, I mean on the first round. I
- 13:40Speaker 2: mean a lot of our question marks. To me, you
- 13:43Speaker 2: haven't proven anything really in the NFL until you lace
- 13:46Speaker 2: it up and play for keeps in the regular season.
- 13:50Speaker 2: So it is a blow. I mean, he's very young
- 13:54Speaker 2: though very raw talent.
- 13:55Speaker 1: I do agree.
- 13:56Speaker 2: So if anybody can recoup from this, I would think
- 13:59Speaker 2: it would be JJ McCarthy.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Am I cracked statistician out there confirmed that Anthony Richardson
- 14:05Speaker 1: went out there and played a couple of games. So
- 14:08Speaker 1: there you go. We try to get it right before
- 14:10Speaker 1: the end of the show, and I appreciate the cracked
- 14:13Speaker 1: statisticians that we have here on the show. Again, I'll
- 14:16Speaker 1: reiterrate on my point begin with that first year should
- 14:19Speaker 1: be a red shirt ear no matter what. Sometimes coaches
- 14:22Speaker 1: get itchy of defeat. Let alone quarterback that want to
- 14:25Speaker 1: see what my new toy to do, and I want
- 14:27Speaker 1: to see what I do toy to do right away.
- 14:29Speaker 1: Let alone, you have to earn your way on the
- 14:32Speaker 1: field and do what you gotta do. All right, We're
- 14:34Speaker 1: taking this bad boy and shot at North Carolina, the
- 14:37Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers of a new coach in Day Canellis, formerly
- 14:40Speaker 1: of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. What are the expectations for
- 14:43Speaker 1: twenty twenty four.
- 14:44Speaker 5: Jennifer, I would honestly say I can see us going
- 14:50Speaker 5: six and eleven.
- 14:54Speaker 4: Obviously, I think we'll be lay.
- 14:57Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 15:00Speaker 5: What it's important is improvement right now. I'm not worried
- 15:03Speaker 5: about playoffs. The improvement I have seen so far is
- 15:10Speaker 5: Dan Morgan. Y'all heard me on the show and on
- 15:13Speaker 5: Inside the Pigskin talk about what Keith pounding means to
- 15:17Speaker 5: me and to the Metrolina area. Dan Morgan was in
- 15:22Speaker 5: that locker room. He is the Carolina Panthers general manager.
- 15:26Speaker 5: He gets a lot of flat because of Federer. People
- 15:29Speaker 5: forget David Tepper wasn't really letting Federer do his job.
- 15:36Speaker 5: Matt Toole was seriously running the entire program being signed
- 15:41Speaker 5: up by David Tepper. That being said, I think this
- 15:46Speaker 5: is great because, honestly, Coach Canalis and Dan Morgan have
- 15:51Speaker 5: been every time they send out a tweet, every time
- 15:53Speaker 5: they do anything, it is hashtag keep pounding.
- 15:55Speaker 4: They are bringing it back.
- 15:57Speaker 5: I think they finally got it through mister Tepper's head
- 15:59Speaker 5: wait to be seen at Panthers.
- 16:02Speaker 4: Games that they bring them back. They keep counting. Ask
- 16:06Speaker 4: for what we're seeing I'm seeing some good stuff.
- 16:10Speaker 5: I'm seeing that there's gonna be some shocking off with
- 16:13Speaker 5: whosdays and who goes so.
- 16:17Speaker 4: With the Carolina Panthers, because there's some veterans.
- 16:20Speaker 1: That maybe.
- 16:23Speaker 4: I agreed Adam Hi Adam Adam he is a good guy.
- 16:30Speaker 5: You guys would love him. He but we will and
- 16:35Speaker 5: Adam's read it's one step at a time. We've got
- 16:38Speaker 5: a lot to go with we. I've been hearing that
- 16:43Speaker 5: Taylor and Ikey have been doing a really good job
- 16:47Speaker 5: in training camp. So that's good because Bryce does need
- 16:51Speaker 5: to be protected. Bryce needs to trust his O line
- 16:54Speaker 5: And honestly, you guys all read the Athletic Report last year.
- 16:58Speaker 4: Like as long as we don't have that mask going on,
- 17:02Speaker 4: we're good, Like we'll be okay. We don't need to
- 17:04Speaker 4: win the playoffs. We don't need to win the Super
- 17:06Speaker 4: Bowl right now.
- 17:07Speaker 5: We need positivity. But I think Candy mentioned this on
- 17:11Speaker 5: the Three Chicks on Chicks and Sausa earlier. But David
- 17:14Speaker 5: Tepper does need to lower the cost of concessions, just saying.
- 17:22Speaker 3: They weren't they talking about Yeah, it wasn't.
- 17:24Speaker 4: It which Atlanta that the he's gonna get more money
- 17:32Speaker 4: mm hmm.
- 17:34Speaker 1: That's funny, really funny.
- 17:36Speaker 4: Sorry, I think it will be Okay, what do you
- 17:38Speaker 4: guys think?
- 17:40Speaker 1: All right, go ahead, I'll turn over to George.
- 17:43Speaker 2: I don't know what to think. I mean, the Panthers
- 17:45Speaker 2: have had their share of visues the last several years.
- 17:49Speaker 2: Bryce Young, yeah, he's gonna need protection. I like the
- 17:52Speaker 2: fact that you got two veterans also. Are they both
- 17:56Speaker 2: going to make the team? I don't know, Jennifer a
- 17:58Speaker 2: dolphin and Plumber and back up quarterbacks or they're gonna
- 18:02Speaker 2: go with Bryce Young. I'm not quite clear about how
- 18:05Speaker 2: they're gonna split that up, but they haven't decided officially yet,
- 18:09Speaker 2: right plumbers dude?
- 18:11Speaker 4: Sorry, well, I know, like and no, he's grace. He'd
- 18:17Speaker 4: been there for like a week.
- 18:18Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, okay, Yeah, Well, you know it's a long road,
- 18:24Speaker 2: and you're right, no one expects a whole lot of it.
- 18:26Speaker 2: Seven wins would be nice if they could get seven
- 18:28Speaker 2: wins or you know, around that mark this year. But
- 18:31Speaker 2: they do have a lot of question marks, and you're right,
- 18:34Speaker 2: the offensive line is going to definitely be a key
- 18:36Speaker 2: for them. You got one of our old lions there
- 18:39Speaker 2: on the defensive line, as Sean Robinson, who had a
- 18:43Speaker 2: really good for years with Detroit and I really like him,
- 18:48Speaker 2: and he's on the d line for you. They over
- 18:50Speaker 2: Detroit Lion. What is he now? She's twenty nine years old. Okay,
- 18:57Speaker 2: so he's been in the league for for a while now.
- 19:00Speaker 2: So Ashawn Robinson, he's got to get some sacks. He's
- 19:04Speaker 2: got to really be a leader on that defense. He's
- 19:06Speaker 2: a veteran that's been around. So there's going to be
- 19:09Speaker 2: a lot of interesting clubs to watch this year, but
- 19:12Speaker 2: I definitely think Caroline is going to be one of them.
- 19:14Speaker 2: I would like to see good football return to Caroline.
- 19:18Speaker 2: I've always admired that state, always liked the fact that
- 19:22Speaker 2: you guys have had some good seasons under your belt.
- 19:25Speaker 2: It's time to really see what Bryce Young could do
- 19:28Speaker 2: and the rest of the rest of the cast. Now.
- 19:31Speaker 1: I like Andy Dalton as a backup. He's been there everywhere.
- 19:33Speaker 1: He's always going to be a stable influence. I wish
- 19:36Speaker 1: they could have found a way to have a role
- 19:38Speaker 1: for Frank riik Eman as an offensive coordinator or anything
- 19:42Speaker 1: I think he got. I mean, this is my opinion.
- 19:44Speaker 1: You're there, but Frank rank to me. Obviously, they wanted
- 19:47Speaker 1: a fresh start. Dave can Allis obviously is young and
- 19:52Speaker 1: did a good job of the Buccaneers. But that's just
- 19:54Speaker 1: one person's opinion. It's hard to bring in a coach
- 19:57Speaker 1: all of a sudden you to get rid of him
- 19:58Speaker 1: after eight, nine, ten games, right.
- 20:01Speaker 5: And that's the thing like Frank Reich. Okay, so several
- 20:04Speaker 5: things went into play here. I officially do not know anything.
- 20:07Speaker 4: This is all.
- 20:10Speaker 5: Supposition, but I think that Tepper went with Reich a
- 20:17Speaker 5: to make an escapegoat, well actually a because he was
- 20:21Speaker 5: the Painter's first quarterback, starting quarterback.
- 20:25Speaker 4: Because he didn't he did stay during his search for
- 20:29Speaker 4: a head coach. He went an offensive minded head coach.
- 20:36Speaker 4: That's why he didn't go.
- 20:37Speaker 5: With Steve Wilkes. He should have gone with Steve Wilkes.
- 20:41Speaker 5: I think he thought taking Frank Reich and making him
- 20:44Speaker 5: the head coach would be a good replacement for the
- 20:51Speaker 5: sentimental value that we all have for coach Wolkes here
- 20:53Speaker 5: in the Carolinas. But no, because honestly, like Frank, he
- 20:58Speaker 5: raised his kids here, like they lived here in the
- 21:00Speaker 5: off season. He had partner wherever he was playing or coaching,
- 21:04Speaker 5: but his wife and kids were here in Charlotte, and.
- 21:09Speaker 4: What David Tepper did to him was atrocious. That's what
- 21:13Speaker 4: I'm saying.
- 21:14Speaker 5: No, Like, honestly, Frank Wright deserves more than what happened
- 21:19Speaker 5: to him because he is a very he's but all accounts,
- 21:22Speaker 5: he's one of the more hious coaches out there, like
- 21:25Speaker 5: not being a Bible tupper, but very pious.
- 21:27Speaker 4: He's a good dude.
- 21:29Speaker 1: And he was like, well, I hope up to him
- 21:34Speaker 1: was ugly. Hope he's getting good money for that party
- 21:38Speaker 1: gift there, all right, turbo gentlemen, good evening too. Yeah,
- 21:41Speaker 1: you're gonna get If you're gonna get kicked out the
- 21:44Speaker 1: wrong way, at least must we get paid good to
- 21:46Speaker 1: do it. We dealt with that with Moni Williams earlier
- 21:49Speaker 1: with the Detroit Pistons, although he deserved what he ended
- 21:52Speaker 1: up getting. Some closing thoughts on this, you know, hey, listen,
- 21:57Speaker 1: Cam Newton was there. They did really well, and Ron
- 22:01Speaker 1: Rivera I think that was the biggest mistake ever letting
- 22:03Speaker 1: him go. But Katie some thoughts.
- 22:08Speaker 3: So if you read at all today, Carolina Panthers quarterback
- 22:13Speaker 3: Bryce Young tried and failed a few times this morning
- 22:16Speaker 3: as he tossed some interceptions. During Wednesday's session of training camp,
- 22:21Speaker 3: in what may have been his worst outing of the
- 22:24Speaker 3: summer thus far, the second year passer mistakenly found the
- 22:28Speaker 3: hands of defensive lineman Shy Tuttle and quarterback Troy Hill
- 22:32Speaker 3: for a couple of picks. In fact, one was a
- 22:35Speaker 3: pick six. So here's my take. This is preseason, this
- 22:40Speaker 3: is practice. If you're gonna throw picks, throw him now
- 22:44Speaker 3: and learn from them. The coach's job is to coach
- 22:49Speaker 3: them now and have them watch film and say, what
- 22:53Speaker 3: did you do wrong? Figure it out, correct it right.
- 22:57Speaker 3: That's why you have preseason. That's why you have practice.
- 23:01Speaker 2: Right exactly. I agree that that's exactly the way they
- 23:06Speaker 2: should approach this.
- 23:08Speaker 3: And I'm gonna ask the panel here what quarterback in
- 23:12Speaker 3: the league wouldn't do better if they had a better
- 23:15Speaker 3: offensive line. Every quarterback would ever, quarterback benefits from a
- 23:20Speaker 3: better offensive line. And yet, and I'm not gonna say
- 23:25Speaker 3: that because there's an argument that everybody needs to be
- 23:29Speaker 3: paid more except for the quarterbacks, because the quarterback salaries
- 23:31Speaker 3: are ridiculous. But let's face it, the offensive line helps
- 23:36Speaker 3: the quarterback. It helps a receiver because it gives time
- 23:39Speaker 3: for the quarterback to throw it. Also, as mel Fire
- 23:43Speaker 3: would say, helps the running back because it puts holes
- 23:46Speaker 3: open tools for them. So I think a lot of
- 23:50Speaker 3: teams need to really look at their offensive line and
- 23:55Speaker 3: question them and really coach your offensive line. What is
- 24:00Speaker 3: your job? What is your role in this scheme? And
- 24:05Speaker 3: don't get me wrong, because the defensive side is going
- 24:08Speaker 3: to be the same. They're all gonna look at how
- 24:10Speaker 3: can we better defense? We have to remember their pros
- 24:14Speaker 3: them both sides of the ball. Yes, we we root
- 24:18Speaker 3: for one of the teams, but both teams are getting
- 24:22Speaker 3: paid and both of them are trying. Now, it'll be
- 24:25Speaker 3: interesting to see because Carolina actually has joint practices with
- 24:30Speaker 3: none other jen than your favorite New York Jets.
- 24:34Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the chat room real quick.
- 24:37Speaker 1: I like d Low's Okay, as an Alan Iverson reference,
- 24:41Speaker 1: we're talking about practice, all right, Allen Iverson, Welcome to
- 24:44Speaker 1: the big show. All right, Quarterbacks are always the most
- 24:46Speaker 1: popular guys at school. Yeah, I guess if they're one
- 24:48Speaker 1: of the jock jackets, they probably are. And the fact
- 24:51Speaker 1: they're getting paid a boatload of money good stuff. De
- 24:53Speaker 1: Lo's on both ends of those. So as far as
- 24:56Speaker 1: I'm concerned. I think that the Carolina Panthers really only
- 24:59Speaker 1: have one way to go anyways, and that's up. So
- 25:01Speaker 1: give Dave can Hell's a five year deal and hope
- 25:04Speaker 1: you can get through three or four years and then
- 25:06Speaker 1: maybe they have a puncher's chance of being relevant again.
- 25:08Speaker 1: Final topic of the night. Okay, and I know Jennifer
- 25:11Speaker 1: has been kind enough to give us part or evening
- 25:13Speaker 1: after Chicks and Salsa, but we're gonna get this last
- 25:15Speaker 1: one done. The biggest takeaway from week one of the preseason,
- 25:20Speaker 1: all right, Jen, go ahead.
- 25:25Speaker 4: I mean it's preseason, like I.
- 25:28Speaker 3: Okay.
- 25:29Speaker 4: For me, the biggest takeaway is I'm really glad we
- 25:33Speaker 4: didn't play any of our starters against me.
- 25:38Speaker 5: But I will also say it sucks that Jja. The
- 25:44Speaker 5: biggest takeaway is probably JJ gettinghead her.
- 25:47Speaker 2: Now.
- 25:47Speaker 4: I know that was in practice, but still, I mean
- 25:50Speaker 4: in meniscus. I tore my meniscus a couple of years ago.
- 25:54Speaker 4: It's not fun.
- 25:58Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 25:58Speaker 4: It's preseason. Preseason is the time for these.
- 26:01Speaker 5: Guys to go out there and ball out when they're
- 26:04Speaker 5: gonna get cut from their current team, for other teams
- 26:07Speaker 5: to look at them and be like okay, we can
- 26:09Speaker 5: fit him into this puzzle piece. And I think that's
- 26:13Speaker 5: the most important part of preseason.
- 26:17Speaker 4: That's just me.
- 26:18Speaker 1: Okay, Candy. And by the way, Adam Lamorad's on a roll.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Hey Adam, if you get a chance, when you kindly
- 26:24Speaker 1: do his favor and please subscribe to the self floord
- 26:26Speaker 1: to tribute and YouTube channel because we do run Chicks
- 26:29Speaker 1: and Salts on there as well, and you'll have a
- 26:31Speaker 1: chance to see some of these other shows if you
- 26:33Speaker 1: so s to Selfwork Tributed Channel. Much appreciated. All right,
- 26:36Speaker 1: can't you go ahead take biggest takeaways?
- 26:39Speaker 3: So the biggest takeaway is preseason is exactly that, the preseason,
- 26:45Speaker 3: and it's really hard to judge how a team is
- 26:48Speaker 3: gonna do because, let's face it, they're putting their second
- 26:52Speaker 3: or third string players in because they're trying to figure
- 26:54Speaker 3: out who's gonna make their team and they're playing against
- 26:58Speaker 3: who knows if it's sex or third string players as well.
- 27:03Speaker 3: My biggest takeaway is for all of those on the bubble,
- 27:08Speaker 3: play your heart soe because you're playing for a job.
- 27:11Speaker 3: Play your heart so yep?
- 27:15Speaker 2: Okay, George, Well yeah, it's something that you know you
- 27:19Speaker 2: don't want to talk about, but it is the elephant
- 27:21Speaker 2: in the room, and that is injury. And the injuries
- 27:25Speaker 2: pile up. It seems like every preseason. You know, JJ
- 27:29Speaker 2: McCarthy is just the latest. You know, it's you know,
- 27:34Speaker 2: the hooker was in that quarterback for the Lions against
- 27:38Speaker 2: the Giants and he suffered us like concussion. I mean,
- 27:41Speaker 2: you know, the list goes on and on and on,
- 27:43Speaker 2: and I do understand why the teams don't want to
- 27:45Speaker 2: play their regulars, but this is totally different than it
- 27:50Speaker 2: used to be, where at least one game you would
- 27:54Speaker 2: have the starters in there, or one or two series,
- 27:58Speaker 2: and now we seem to the pendulum swung all the
- 28:00Speaker 2: way over to the other way. And Rogers still wants
- 28:04Speaker 2: to get that eighteen game schedule, which I really don't
- 28:08Speaker 2: want instead of seventeen games. Then another preseason game, of
- 28:12Speaker 2: course will be sacrificed, but so will a lot of
- 28:15Speaker 2: players' bodies and their durability to add another game to
- 28:19Speaker 2: the schedule. And I know that's not this preseason. But
- 28:23Speaker 2: you ask for my opinion, I'll say, Scott, my first inpedition,
- 28:27Speaker 2: as always, take a look at the practice. I mean,
- 28:30Speaker 2: the injury Lis and who got hurt the most, and
- 28:32Speaker 2: obviously the Minnesota Viking's got hurt the most so far
- 28:36Speaker 2: at this preseason.
- 28:37Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Handon Hooker. Obviously, you know the Lions are
- 28:41Speaker 1: counting on him down the road. And of course, let's
- 28:44Speaker 1: not forget in nineteen seventy nine, only these people were
- 28:46Speaker 1: born here. Gary Daniels had suffered that injury in the
- 28:50Speaker 1: final preseason game against the Baltimore Colts, and Aaron Rodgers,
- 28:55Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers all, he has to just figure out what
- 28:56Speaker 1: the word ammunized means, and if he can do that,
- 28:59Speaker 1: God help anybody. I don't care what Aaron Rodgers says,
- 29:03Speaker 1: because what Aaron Rodgers says doesn't mean deadly. My biggest
- 29:05Speaker 1: takeaway from the whole thing really is the fact that
- 29:08Speaker 1: Steve McMichael got into the Hall of Fame and he
- 29:10Speaker 1: was alive to do it at the Pro Football Hall
- 29:12Speaker 1: of Fame. We should all go ahead. I don't care
- 29:14Speaker 1: if he called that week one. I call it week
- 29:17Speaker 1: one because Steve McMichael is a Hall of Famer and
- 29:20Speaker 1: he's alive to do it. And I'm really happy with
- 29:22Speaker 1: his wife, Misty McMichael, who was able to enjoy the
- 29:25Speaker 1: ceremonies and the fact that they took the bus and
- 29:27Speaker 1: the jacket over to is his home. God blessed to
- 29:32Speaker 1: Steve McMichael. All Right, as we approach a thirty minute mark, Jen,
- 29:36Speaker 1: we have one or two minutes ago. I can't talk
- 29:39Speaker 1: any faster than I am, but I love talking fast.
- 29:41Speaker 1: I like doing it. You don't know what challenge, He'll
- 29:45Speaker 1: tell you. Don't believe me. Look at Candy. She needs
- 29:47Speaker 1: a tablet every time she rides with me. Oh, I
- 29:50Speaker 1: need a tablet maybe except what she has to drive
- 29:52Speaker 1: because I'm not able to do it.
- 29:54Speaker 4: For whatever next time? All right, Scott, I've got.
- 30:01Speaker 1: A different vehicle here. This is called the MotorCity mad
- 30:03Speaker 1: Mouth Retirement Vehicle. So I'll probably be a little bit
- 30:07Speaker 1: later on the gas, especially in Georgia. So what that
- 30:09Speaker 1: SAIDs we can ready to wrap up the sports Exchange, Jennifer,
