• 0:50
  Speaker 2: So Drew Kendall, I thought looked really damn good and
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: yeah right, And to me, it's like I've gotten out
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: to this point where we're like Brett Toad was in there.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: It's like I almost feel like the organization, for some
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: bizarre reason, is scared to play guys that are rookies
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: that weren't picked in the first or second round. Because
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: I'm looking at Kendall and I'm like, this guy might
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: be a gem here, and i just want to get
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: your thoughts overall on how he played this to the
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Naked Eye. It was really good.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: Well, there's two guys that when I watched m Key,
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: I watched in detail and that was Kendall and Cameron Williams,
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: and I thought Kendall played really well. Kendall is your classic,
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: probably because his dad was a center or a guard,
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: I forget, but his dad was offensively both. Yeah, Kendall's
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: one of those guys to me, even when I watched
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: him at BC, because I did him coming out frank
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: that I just thought knew how to play the position.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Like he's not physically imposing, you know, he's not one
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: of those guys, but he knows leverage, he knows angles,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: he knows how to play the position. He knows how
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: to get his body in the right spot. And I
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: thought that showed up, you know, in the game on Sunday.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: And you know, I'm not going to sit here and
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: say he's the starting center. And I don't know the
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: answer to that question. You know, no one, No one
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: does for sure, But I watching his Boston college tape,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: I felt he could develop into a starting center in
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: the NFL and be a good one.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: So I'm looking at Perdy and I'm thinking, just like golf,
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: you got to get him off of his spot and
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: his timing.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: So what have you seen.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: From Purdy this year that impressed you or have been
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: so much impressed you.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: Well, Perty is the same as he always is. It's
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: not any different this year than at any previous year.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: Purty is part of it. It's a perfect marriage between
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: scheme and quarterback because Purty's this gets into the whole
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: discussion of quarterback traits out and you know we've touched
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: upon this, and people who may listen to me in
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: other places know that I'm getting a little tired of
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: all this belief about quarterbacks. If they throw it hard
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and run fast, that means they have great quarterback traits.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Purdy is understands intuitively how to play the quarterback position.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: But even though he's mobile, he's not a playmaker in
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: a strict sense. You know, he's not Josh Allen, he's
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: not Patrick Mahomes, he's not that guy. He's not Joe Burrow,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: but he's closer to that in terms of how he
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: plays the position. So what you have is a really
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: well schemed offense that's based on what we call pure progression.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: But there's two things that you didn't know about Purty
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: coming out of college. Because you don't see that in
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: college the way it's necessary in the NFL because the
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: college game is totally different. You didn't see that he
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: had a very innate feel for timing and anticipation. And
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: you didn't see that he had a really innate feel
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: for coverage rotation. So those are two things that he
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: just from the moment he started his rookie year against Miami.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: When he came in that game, you could see right
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: away that he just knew that it just was an eight.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: It's in his DNA. So that's the kind of quarterback
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: he is. But he needs the scheme to present everything
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: cleanly for him because that's the nature of pure progression.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: The nature of pure progression. It's true really in any
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: kind of outfense, but you really want the primary read
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: to be the throw because that allows you to stay
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: within the timing of the drop, set and delivery. Now,
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: he certainly can go to secondary receivers, but it's just
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: a perfect marriage of scheme and higher level quarterback traits.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: So he's no different now, you know, than he was
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: last year or three weeks ago or three months ago.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: This is who he is, and what Seattle did to
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: him last week is throw him off that schedule to
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: some degree.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: But you have to understand the Niners don't have any
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: talented wide receiver, so you know, at some point you
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: got to win one on one. It's the same problem
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: the Bills have. It's why the Bills are going to
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: lose in the first round, and everybody's gonna blame Josh Allen.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: At some point you need I loved it. It's the same,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: and you know you need guys to win one on
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: one somewhere along the line because teams will play man
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: coverage and you need guys that can win on the outside.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: They don't have any of those guys. Ricky Pierce all
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: is the best at it, and he's a second year
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: player who's been unfortunately hurt a lot. But John Jennings
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: is a really nice, probably like a two A kind
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: of guy, super tough guy, super competitive. You know once
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: in a while, can win one on one, but not
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: really you know outside the numbers. You know, obviously kiddo can,
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: but you know you need a wide receiver who can
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: do that, and they don't have that guy.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: Hey, guys, I thought I would ask you about the
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: tight end position. I didn't see if are are non
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: blocking tight end is going to be playing uh next week.
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: But I just saw like while I was watching the game.
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: You know, kal Kater got hurt. Obviously, you know the
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: guy get hurt, But it seemed like the blo the
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: blocking was better with grantson and lots and I didn't
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: know who was lined up. You know, they had some
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: guys that fall back and sometimes they had just had
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: a more like a tight up you have that line.
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: But man, they seemed like in the run game that
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: they were especially when they were coming across the formation,
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: they were putting some hits on guys. I'm just curious,
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: what did you think of the blocking and the run
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: game from those two.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Well, a Lot two is a good blocker. He was
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: a really good blocker at Alabama. He I kind of
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: liked a Lot two coming out of Alabama because I
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: thought he could be your classic kind of number two
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: tight end who is an adequate enough receiver, you know,
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: not a true vertical receiver, but an adequate enough receiver
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: and a solid blocker. Like in some ways, this guy
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: would be considered better because of where he was drafted,
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: although I thought he was overdrafted. But in some ways,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: like Mike Meyer, who's with the Raiders, who I thought
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: was way over drafted. But that's just me. You know,
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: a guy who's like a quality short to short intermedia
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: receiver and a solid blocker.
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: Wait, does that mean next year we're gonna draft the
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: best tight end to come out in the next ten
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: years like they did with the Raiders, didn't they just.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: You mean Bowers? Yeah, yeah, yeah, but anyway, different GM
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: by the way, two different gms. Yeah yeah. So the
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: question with someone like Calcatara is is what kind of
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: blocks Chris? You're going to ask him to make? What
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: he can't do? And they know this, believe me, you
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: know they know this. If I know what, they know it.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: He's not a guy you're going to ask to block
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: one on one against defensive ends, unless it's an angle
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: block or a seal block or a pin block. But
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: you're not gonna ask him to do a base or
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: a drive block head up on a tight end. He's
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: he's not capable of that. But depending on the kind
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: of run, like I'll give you. You know a great example,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: Barkley had a twenty eight yard run against the Giants
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: maybe Week eight or nine, whatever week that was, and
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: it was what's called a pin pole scheme, and he
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: had an angle block on the defensive end. He can
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: do that, you know, it all depends on what kind
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: of block you want to ask a guy to execute.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: So he can do those kinds of things, but you're
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: not gonna ask him to drive block or base block,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: you know, a two hundred and seventy pound defensive end,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: because then you're just asking for failure.
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: Hey, it's that time of the year that everyone's trying
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: to clean up their habits and that includes me. Honestly,
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: having one less drink never felt easier. Instead of pouring
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: a cocktail, I just reach for souls out of office drinks.
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: It's the same relaxing vibe, but zero alcohol, zero hangover.
• 8:43

• 8:46
  Speaker 6: can get to the gym, I can do whatever I
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: have to do throughout the day without feeling worn down
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: or dragged down. That alcohol can make you feel soul.
