  Speaker 2: What's up, everybody. Welcome to move the sticks. DJ and
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Bucky going to be joined by our good buddy Brian
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Baldinger as we look back at an incredible weekend of football.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Before we do that, though, I'm wearing my app State
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: hat today because it's just a sad day.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: It's been a sad.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Twenty four hours for everybody in our family, and it
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: is really a family up there in Boone. So lost
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: a former teammate of mine and a good friend. And
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Sean Clark was an amazing All American tackle at app
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: State and was the head coach there, spent a lot
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: of his years and time really investing in people up
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: there in Boone and then was at Central Florida this
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: year as the offensive line coach and tragically passed away
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: over the weekend at fifty years old. Challe's a wonderful guy,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: wonderful father, two kids. He always talked about every time
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: we had a chance to visit. Just an unbelievable guy
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: who's going to be in edibly missed by people all
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: over the college football landscape. And anybody who really came
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: in contact with him Buck. We had a chance to
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: have him on the show previously. It was fun to
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: kind of introduce him to you because he got kind
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: of two friends and then getting a chance to meet
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: each other. But in Baldi he's offensive lineman, like he's
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: your people man.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: You would absolutely loved him.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a sad day, Djym's hardy to hear from
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: your low.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's really sad, DJ.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: Because I was at the UCF Carolina game this weekend
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: in anticipation of not only seeing Natario's played the nice
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: but Lookshawn was going to be there Bill Belichick and shouted.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: Him out ahead of the game. Talk to him postgame, So.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: Just said news, you talk about fifty years old, so
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: much life, still the head to live and then really
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: the kids and the wife that he leaves behind. So
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: thought in prayers to him, his family, to the app
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: State family, to everyone who encountered Sean because he was
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: such a great Tuoe.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, great guy.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: I had a chance to go up there and take
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: my family up there and I think twenty one in
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: the summer, and he kind of gave us a whole
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: tour of everything, showed my kids around. Couldn't have been,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: couldn't have been nicer and just a better dude. And
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: then was up there for a game just last year
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: at this time, I think it was a year ago
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: today looking at the calendar, I was up there in
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Boone and I you know, I saw him in the
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: locker room. He came, gave me a big bear hug,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: and uh, he's going to be missed. He was a
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: great guy. So anyways, sending all my love to to
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: their family. All right, guys, let's let's jump in here
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: to the games we had yesterday. It's a crazy, crazy,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: uh weekend. Man, I was at a crazy game. Uh,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I was where were you at yesterday? I let's start there,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Let's start there, go for it.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, honestly, like, uh, the Eagles couldn't have
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: it was tailored to two games. I mean, they couldn't
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: have been worse. In the first half. They literally couldn't
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: function as an offense. They lost Elane Johnson.
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: Early in the game.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: They went to Matt Pryor Jared Versus used him a
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: couple of times. They ended up getting a fumble knock
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: the ball knocked out of jail and hurt his hand.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: They recovered, I mean they scored twenty six straight points.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: I mean, they got complete control of the game. Fred
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Johnson went it right tackle, I mean, locked down everybody
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: he went against, and all of a sudden, the protection
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: got better.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: They had to throw it for the first time over year.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: They had to throw it, and they threw it and
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: aj Brown went after every single corner that tried to,
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: you know, take him on.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: But you know, it was Devonte Smith catching the game winner.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: But even that didn't win the game, you know, because
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: the Rams came right back down and they blocked two
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: field goals in the last four minutes, the last one
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: by we saw Jordan Davis, but Jalen Carter blocked one
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: before right It was middle block, right over the left guard.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: They both backed him up. The first block by Jalen Carter,
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Jordan Davis could have blocked that one as well. And
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: that's really the story for the Eagles defenses. Jordan Davis,
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: because we all recognized the talent that he had coming
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: out of Georgia and we just didn't see it. He
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: didn't stay on the field long enough to really make
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: an impact. I remember DJ his agent hit me up
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: after the game after the season last year and he
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: played thirteen plays in a Super Bowl. We really had
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: no impact. And he said, Paulie, I know you you
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: know you've been hard on Jordan, and I had been,
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: you know, but it wasn't personal.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: It's never personal.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I just said, you know, he's not in good enough
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: condition to stay on the field to unpack these games.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: He said, Jordan's going to He's going to come in
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: shape this year, and he did. He lost thirty pounds.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: He's on the field, he's impacting the game. He's their
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: best defensive lineman right now. He won the game for
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: him yesterday. It's a chip shot field goal and it
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: gets blocked for a touchdown and the Eagles somehow pulled
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: out of their hat.
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: But the offense woke up, the defense did their job.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: In the second half, they got to Stafford and they overcame.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Just a dreadful first half of football. Were literally only
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: in Philadelphia. Could you be undefeated World champs and be booed,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: I ain't going to the locker room halftime. Here's sixty
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: five and they're all letting it fly out there, and I'm.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: Like, only Hilly.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Baldy. There are a couple of things.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: One Jordan Davis speaks to what we always have talked about.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: When Vic Fangio joined, I heard that they ramped up
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: to conditioning because previously maybe they didn't put a priority
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: on particularly the defense, conditioning, running to the ball, doing
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: those things.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: So Jordan Davis responding in kind.
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: To me, that tells you everything that you need to
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: know about how the conditioning part impacts the play and
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: the performance of a player. The other part, and this is,
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: I guess the thing around the league, these field goal blocks, Baldy.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: I've never seen the game impacted on field goal blocks as.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Much as we've seen of late.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: And I don't know if it's a schematic design, if
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: it's more time on task, if we're taking it for granted,
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: but we are seeing blocks on field go pats at
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: an alarming rate.
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: You know what's funny about that?
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Real quick here, DJ Port jump in like literally almost
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: simultaneous to Jordan Davis blocks, Will McDonald blocks one for
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: the Jets, takes it back for a touchdown to give
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: them the twenty seven to twenty six league.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: Banker finished it.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: But I mean it was almost like if you were
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: watching these games a real time on a big screen,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: you see block touchdown block touchdown almost at the exact
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: same time.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: You know, it's funny, I'll give you a little peak
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: behind the curtain because I'm calling that Charger game and
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: money and you're calling the game. But during the breaks,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: we'll check the scores and see what's going on. So
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: during one of the breaks, we see, oh my gosh,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: you know, the Jets are like they're in the game
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: because it was out of control for a while, and
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: they're in the game. And then I look and I
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: show I remember pointing to him like this must have
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: been during a commercial or something, and I pointed him
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: out they're lining up to kick the field goal, like
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: this will kind of put this thing away. And then
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: you go back to calling the game, and then you
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: look back down at your computer and.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: You see the score happen. What the heck just happened?
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Like, cause you're it doesn't even and it doesn't even
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: function as like a possibility of that could take place.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: But I guess you're gonna have to change our mindset
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: because this is happening more and more as you look
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: across these games. But I want to go back to
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: a couple of things. Jordan Davis. While you guys are talking,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: I went back and looked at my notes. So Jordan
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Davis when he was coming out, Remember he was six
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: h six three three and forty one pounds were in
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: a four to seven eighth. He was my eleventh overall player.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: He played the one tech three tech. He's got a
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: quick first step, he can a little slap rip TfL.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: He plays aware, he's block aware, he's got range versus
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: a run. He can walk centers back with power. The
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: biggest question gas tank, question mark, question mark, question mark.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: So that was the whole thing, Baldy, that was the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: whole thing. He just had to get himself in playing shape.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: And it looks like he's done that.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: So two things.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: One, Bucky, you can jump in on is because you
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: know Dexter Lawrence, your dad coached him. But Dexter Lawrence
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: had the same issue his first three years with the
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Giants and he couldn't stay on the field. He wasn't
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: impact in the passing game. And Wink Martindale really challenged
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: him a couple of years ago and he became like
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: a real dominant player. And I talked to Jordan Davis
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: forty game. Anybody that knows him have met him.
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: He's a great kid. He's very articulate, he's very self conscious.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: But the thing that's amazed now DJ is he's had
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: three great games in a row and he won the game.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: For him.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: It's unbelievable what that does to a young kid's confidence
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: for for a long time, three years. You know, he's
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: the reason why. You know, he's not on the field,
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: he's not changing the game, he's not he's not living
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: up to the first round pick, he's not living up
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: to the eleventh pick in the draft, all this stuff,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, you start making these plays
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: and it's because of you.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: It's he's a completely different kid right now.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fun to see, Buck, That is fun to see.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: I want to go on the Rams side because I
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: do think out of this loss, I think there's some
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: confidence for them that can be built in terms of
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: being a legitimate title contender. They felt like last year
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: when they played the Eagles, they let one slip out
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: of their hands that they should have been the team
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: that played the Super Bowl and won the Super Bowl
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: and those things, given how they played, but the fact
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: that they were able to dominate the Eagles early, they
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: were able to run the football successfully early they were
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: able to go toe to toe with the champs. Man,
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: I just think this sets up for the rematch in
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: the postseason with the Rams if they can get it
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: on their terms in LA. Because both of those games
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: have been in Philly. I believe that the Rams feel
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: like when they walk out of that stadium. Man, this
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: is a team that we have did the rights. We
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: just need to get them on our turf so we
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: can beat them. And if we beat them, we can go.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: They ran the ball really well, really well. Both Blake
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: korm has really come on Kyron, both of them. I mean,
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: they controlled the line of scrimmage for basically the first
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: three quarters of the game.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Well, the other thing I would say, as we kind
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: of wrap up and we'll move on here, Eagles three
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: plays away from being zero to three, I mean, and
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: that's how razor thin the margin has.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Been for them.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: But they found a way to win it the last
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: two points on the Eagles and we'll keep it rolling.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: AJ Brown going back through all his stuff and watching
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: his man, I don't know, there's no you can compare
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: receivers and how they are in certain areas. There's no
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: comparison of who these physically strongest wide receiver is in
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: the NFL. At the top of his route, you can't
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: get through him. And then once he catches the ball,
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: he's just done a nightmare to get on the ground.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: And there's two plays where normal guys, you're going to okay,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: it's a heck of a catch. You got a defender
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: on your back, it's it it catch on the ground
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: over and he somehow is able to muscle his way
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: through and pick up big chunks after the catch. So
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: that was my aj Brown point. And then Baldy last one.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: I'll hitch you on this and you give me a
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: quick rebuttal and we can move on. But I went
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: back and I wanted to see John Campbell had some
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: tackle production. So I went back and I just want
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: to I just want to put my eyes just on him.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: And what I came away saying is, okay, look, nothing's perfect.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: There's times where he gets swallowed and walled off in
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: those things. But I would say good advice to give
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: to a young player, which they've clearly given to him,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: is hey, just go make a mess. Man, play fast
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: and make a mess. And even on the pick, even
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: on the pick, he gets smoked by the.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Back when he blitzes.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: I think it was Karen Williams might have caught him,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: but he's playing a hundred miles and that to me
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: is way better than trying to I don't know what
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: I see, What am I doing? I'm not sure. Just
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: play fast and make a mess.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah. His partner, Zach Bond is amazing. I mean the
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: interception on DeVante Adams that led to the first touchdown
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: of the game, and I talked to him after the game.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: I saw him down the field, but like he just
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: read the eyes of Stafford all the way, just jumped
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: out in front of the DeVante. He's just amazing instincts
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: for the game. Like literally, if you just put your
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: if you just put a picture and picture of camera
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: on Zach Bond, You're going to find the football every
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: single play.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: No doubt. All right, let's let's go through the three
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: games we were at. So we'll go through those three
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: and then we'll move on beyond that. I'll get to
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: the one I was at Chargers Broncos, which was a
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: rock fight. Man, these are two defenses that were playing
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: lights out and man, the let's start on the Denver
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: side of things first. They have fastballs that they are
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: bringing after you, Jonathan Cooper, big time, big time speed.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: I'd have to go through. I know we can get
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: the get off numbers, but if Benito is not in
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: the top three to four or get off guys in
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: the league, I'll be shocked. I mean he he got
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: al off the snap a few times. Uh. He was excellent.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Their defense overall played great offensively. The kind of the
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: turning point for them that that got the Broncos in
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: the game was Chargers up ten nothing inside a minute
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: to go and in the half they go for it
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: on a fourth down. You're thinking they're gonna run the ball,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: They're gonna move the pocket, try and get you know,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: Bonnicks on the move and Sean Payton dials up a
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: shot play, they catch a busted coverage, they get a touchdown.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: Bam, They're right back in the game.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: And they ended up being in control of the game
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: until Justin Herbert just you know, took over over took
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: over at the end. But Buck, two things I want
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: to hit you on. Aronde Gadson, the rookie tight end,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: was awesome in this game, including the last driver two key,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: two key plays he wins on a on a little
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: pivot route. He wins on a slant route on those
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: on that last two drive he got Justin's trust. It
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: makes two plays there. He was targeting a little bit
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: earlier in the game as well. So excellent performance. First
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: game he's been active as in his rookie season. He
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: steps up. And then the other one was Hampton with
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: the unfortunate achilles injury to Naji Harris, who had been
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: running the ball really well. Amarian Hampton is involved not
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: only as a runner and he's able to squeak through
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: and pop a couple, but man second half of the
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: game caught the ball really well and to combat all
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: the different rushers and blitzzes you're going to see from
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: that defense advanced Joseph. Their answer, which they got to
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Greg Roman found was hey, let's just pitch it out.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: Let's just throw the ball outside to Hampton, and he
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: gobbled up a lot of yards.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: You know, it's funny to show about two rickies making
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: major contributions. One we expected Omarion Hampton. You expect him
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: to make a contribution. He's the first round pick. And
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: even though they were sharing to load him and Naja
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: Harris at some point, you expected him to take it
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: over and be the guy. And what you're seeing is
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: what a lot of North Carolina people would tell me
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: is you can't utilize them enough.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Whatever you want to see he can do.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: It might not have showed up on college tape, but as
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: a pro, he has those skills, so you expect to
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: see Hampton do that. Arondies, I got to tell you
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: one for anyone who remembers his dad, his dad was
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: a freakazoid in terms of being a supersized wide receiver
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: down there in Miami, kind of doing things and making
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: it happen. Watching a Rondez Gassen junior at the East
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: West Shrine Bowl, you understood what he could do and
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: practices in terms of being a pass catching specialist in
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: the middle of the field. To see him first game
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: active make plays, it just bowls well for what the
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: Chargers are creating. A young, dynamic offense that has old
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: school values, but they got a franchise quarterback that can
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: make a new school whenever they need to. This is
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: a really good team and I can't even say they're
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: laying in the weeds as a contender, but they're right
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: there ready to make that next step and if you
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: know har Brough, you two is typically when it happens.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: You know what caught my eye, especially towards the end
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: DJ is you lose beck To he's out, Jamari's in there,
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: you lose Pipkins, he's out. You got backup right guard,
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: right tackle in the game, backup to the backup right
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: tackle in the game, and you're not skipping a beat.
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: Like That's when you know the quarterback is playing.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: At an unbelievable level what she was well, Like when
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: you stopped noticing the drop off in offensive line play
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: and you're down to the backups to the backups and.
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: You're still moving the football and scoring like that.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Another thing is, you know Quentin Johnson, there was a
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: nugget a nugget in the.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Research packet this week.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I think coming into this game, he was fourth in
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: the NFL since the start of twenty four in touchdown receptions.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: And then he made some more big plays in this game,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: including he got Sartana a couple times down the field.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: And I was staying there on the broadcast, I'm like, guys,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: the whole narrative of Quinton Johnston.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's cute.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: He kind of turned it around like he can catch
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: the ball now, ha, Like he's a little bit better.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: It's like this guy's playing like a number one receiver.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: He's got the numbers to back it up. And so
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: then you get him rolling like that. You know, lat
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: mccackie hadn't had like a huge, huge game yet, he
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: doesn't really had to keenan still clutches. Ever, when you
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: get in those third down situations and now I'm say, okay,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: well these are all established guys now, and now you
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: mix in a couple of these rookies. They're dropping in
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: there now. They're gonna have to go get another back.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: They're gonna you know, they have Hassan Haskins there. They
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: got to get another back. Now that Najee Harris is
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: going to be down, and you know, Herbert can't continue
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: to get hit like that. I don't know how many
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: teams defensively are equipped to do what the Broncos do.
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: I came out of that stadium in the Broncos. I mean,
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: they let one get away against the week previous week,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: and this one was, you know, like they had a
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: real good shot to win this game. So there you go, Drew,
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: just put it up in the in the not Bernito. Yeah,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: point seventy four, top five in the league in terms
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: of his get off and the number one guy with
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Jonathan Cooper his teammates. So that's one of those ones.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: I love when we can do that in real time, Bald,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: because your eyes when you're watching it, you're like, these
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: guys are getting off the rock, man, Well, you.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: Know, I mean, it's it's just you know, the old
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: saying that you can't win the hundred meters das unless
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: you get a great start.
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: And yes, it's everything right now, it's the start.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Like if you Bryce Huff in San Francisco right now,
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: you get a great start, you're gonna give these tackles
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: problems to the league. Man, you're gonna get you're gonna
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: get them turned, and you're gonna have a chance to get.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: To the quarterback, no question. But that was a big win.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: The Chargers start off three and oh, three and oh
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: inside the division, so when you factor in the type,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: I think they're two and a half up on everybody
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: in the division. So pretty incredible start for Jim Harbaugh
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: and the Bolts.
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: Buck.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Let's get to your game here. Not at all what
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: I anticipated. I mean I went back and watched I'll
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: get to what I watched of it in a little
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: bit here, but just tell me what it was like
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: in the stadium in a weird Houston Jacksonville game.
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: Look, it was a good game to watch. Offensively, if
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: you lay office the ball, this hit you back. A
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: lot of drop passes from the Jaguars. Brian Thomas Jr.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Has a bit of the yips. He's having a tough
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: time catching the ball, but a bunch of other players
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: are struggling as well. And then when you look at
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: the Texans, the Texans just are trying to figure out
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: this new offense and they don't have an identity. And
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: I'll be honest, Cia Stroud is struggling in terms of
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: you know, we talked about the sophomore slump and that
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: way in year three. He's struggling trying to figure out
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: where everything is. And someone who is so gifted as
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: a passer, like the body's not connecting with the mind
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: and so his superpowers are negated by the overthinking and
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: it's really kind of ground this offense to a halt.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I went back and watched just a Stroud part
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: of it, because man, his rookie year, there's so much
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: good and even last year was up and down.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: But I was shoot.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: I was in the building and he carved up the
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Chargers of the number one defense in the NFL. After
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: a slow start in that game, he got heated up.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: To me, I was just watching that. Man, there's no
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: rhythm to it. I feel like every throw is pretty hard.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Like Baldy, I want to get your thoughts on this
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: because going through and watching all these games this morning
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: and going through and watching the different cutups, I wanted
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: to peek out. One of the things I've noticed is, man,
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: if your offense is not incorporating a lot of smoke's greens,
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: tunnel screens quick here like these are not only are
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: they you know, look you get the escort screens we
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: see out there all the time, like you need to
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: be getting. Those are six to seven completions of game.
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: You should just bake in. Those are gimmes and if
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: they pop, they pop. If not, what they do is
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: they work as kind of a rhythm, a rhythm builder
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: for a quarterback. When you drop back and you're looking
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: at it, everything is hard and covered and down the field. Man,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: that's hard way to play quarterback with all the two
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: high looks and the shell coverage you see in this league.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Not only that, but you know the offense line has
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: not played well and it's all new and you know,
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: whether it's Titus Howard or ariantae Urseri, I mean Lake
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: and Thomas has been this league a long time.
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: He doesn't miss games, but he's not a very good player.
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know to plug him in that left
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: guard like they they've had a problem at left guard
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: for a long time. And you could change coaches, offensive
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: line coach coordinators like they have a lot of those
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: issues are still there. And I don't care who you are,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: you get hit early in these games, Like you know,
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: I think that I saw Trey vonn who's having a.
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: Great season walker roster. He's becoming a dominant player.
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: He looks like a number one pick, you know, the
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: way physically, like he's getting after guys like they're not
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: staying you know, nobody's staying in front of him right now.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: And so the quarterback kids said early, man, like you're
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: gonna be a little skintch. I know, we got the
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: big touchdown to Nico, but I mean, honestly, like it's
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: it's been a real problem.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: But you gotta but to me that that thing that
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: comes back to my point though, you've got to have
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: stuff baked in to control then, like I watched it,
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: we just talked about the chart. I watched Justin Herbert
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: get the tar kicked out of him, and then eventually
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: they figured out, Hey, we're just gonna release Hampton like
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: we're keeping keeping him. Man, they still got us out number.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: We're we're having trouble picking this stuff up. We're just
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: gonna he's gonna have a place to get the ball
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: out quick.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: You know who does did that a lot yesterday with
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Sean McVay. Like they run a lot of fly sweeps.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: They run a lot of stuff to meat uh to
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: nicula on the outside and they're just trying to pick
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: up a block and go trying to rather than just
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: trying to hammer it inside against the eagles.
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: I mean, they found different ways to run it.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: But I'm with you, DJ, you got to get some
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: easy completions and just get the ball out of his
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: hands without having to really think about it and diagnose
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: something pre snap.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Real quick, buck before we move on, give me the
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Travis Hunter update. I rely on you every week. What
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: was the usage, how they use him and what do
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: you do?
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: I mean he played a lot.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: I mean he played a lot of defense. He's on
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: the field, he's all over the place. They can do
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: a better job of getting in the ball in a
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: critical moment. They found it to him on like a
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: little curl. He makes a move dress out and you
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: can see the explosiveness. The problem that they're having is
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: there's a lack of confidence because they had so many
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: drops in the game that now the quarterback is pressing
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: trying to figure out who I can trust, and so
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: Breton Strange was the guy that he could rely on.
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: Travis Hunter, I would say, would probably be second in
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: that group. I think going forward you'll probably see a
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: re shuffling of the deck when it comes to the
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: pecking order.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: But I think Travis Hunters started getting more balls.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they put it in their thirty five snaps on offense,
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: forty one on defense, so darn near fifty.
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: A lot of tackles in that game, Bucky, Yeah.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: The tackles.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: The thing that I will say is the JAG's defense
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: is playing much better for as exceeded expectations. Josh Heinz
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: Allen Eric Armstead on the inside and Treyvon Walker. They're
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: getting after it and what they're able to do now
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: they're playing zone, so it's a sea ball kipball defense.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: They have nine takeaways I think in three games.
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: They're I mean they're getting tips and overthrows and the
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: zone is working because they have these dynamic athletes that
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: are just tracking the ball and you're seeing more plays.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Travis Hunter hasn't scratched yet.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: But it's only a matter of time because the way
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: they're playing the zone, he is going to snack some
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: balls out there.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Let me ask you a buck Yus. I don't know
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: much about companyly. You know, the new defensive coordinator man,
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: but obviously the breakdowns they had last year were ridiculous.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: I mean there's turn of guys lose, but I don't
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: see that right now. What is what is his strength?
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: Why did Liam like lean on this guy right here
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: to run this defense?
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: So it's funny body.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: As much as I would love to say that it's
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: the exison hosts, I would say that what I've learned
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: from watching this team, it is all about the connectivity
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: between players and coaches and talking to guys after the
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: talking to some of their veteran leaders, they were like,
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: it's a difference in having coaches say things that you
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: actually believe in and wanting to play for them as
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: opposed to just going out and playing. And so I
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: would say Camp has challenged the guys, but he's challenged
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: the guys. And it's almost like when you have an
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: old teacher that tells you, ay, Baldy, I promise you
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: if you just follow the formula, it'll take and you
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: do that first big problem and it's right. And so
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: now the trust that you have and the teacher takes
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: you to the next level. That is what's happened. Kevinnillius
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: told those guys, if you run to the ball, if
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: you keep the ball in front, I promise you, good
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: things are going to happen. And over the first three games,
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: those things have happened, and so now their confidence is
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: sky high.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: Through the roof.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: No doubt, it's been a different unit completely, and they've
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: always had guys on that side of the ball particularly.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: So good to see the Jacks playing. Well, let's take
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: a quick break, we come back, we'll knock out.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: Some other games.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: All right, Baldy, I saw you had posted on this
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: and then actually after you posted it than I wanted
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: to go through and check it out for myself. So
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: and I'll set this up properly because we've mentioned Bucky
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: and I have mentioned this no shortage of ten times
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: on the show where we've said we were out there together,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: shoulder to shoulder watching Jimmy Garoppolo and Davante Adams carve
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: up the Dallas secondary like a Thanksgiving turkey during during
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: traning camp, and we came out of that saying the
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Rams are going to score sixty points a game or
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: this Dallas back in is horrendous, and I think we're
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: figuring out, Hey, the Rams are, They're pretty good, But Baldy,
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: the bigger takeaway is Dallas defensively.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: What in the world is going if they make.
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: It any easier for Caleb Williams. I mean they left
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: meat on the bouncer. They have meat on the.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Bouncer, trying to jam like a one an jam live
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: on Roman Doomsday and Missus and falls and Domsay is
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: like literally it's like a Friday afternoon like egg toss.
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: That's one ye.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: And then like you know, look, Kyer Elim, I know
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: where he got drafted I mean that guy's out there,
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: he's a liability man. Yeah, like Caleb, he threw four
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: touchdown passes. Honestly, three guys were completely wide open, you know.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, the kid from Missouri is a
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: really good player, but I mean it helps me nobody's
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: covering him. I mean it's a one breakdown after another.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: And the other part to this, I mean, Jerry Jones
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: doesn't want to hear this. They've got no pass rush,
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: no pass rush. I mean in Chicago, who struggled like
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: crazy against Detroit. Like, honestly, Caleb barely got hit in
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: that game. In fact, he got hit one time by
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: Sam Williams after he completed the pass. I mean, he
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: couldn't get near him in this game, and that was
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: that was a big story. But like, you can't give
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: it up any easier than they gave it up.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going through my notes, Buck, and it's one
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: thing when you write lay up, you know, open easy,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: when you write all caps, comet, wide open, all caps
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: all the way across, exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: They were actually you know, and Caleb play well. They
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: made it easy on him, but I thought they left
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: a little meat on the bone, like, there were probably
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: three or four throws that he would love.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: He definitely.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: They had some opportunities that he missed. When he when
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: he's driving the ball in the scene, for some reason,
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: it takes off on him. There's times where I think
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: he's overthrowing it and the ball just kind of jumps
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: on him and he's missed. But the thing that I
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: liked about in talking about Caleb every week, the things
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: that I continue to see improvement in. He had four
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: runs in this game. Okay, technically four runs. Two were
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: nil down. So he had two runs in this game,
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: and they were both zone reads designed quarterbacks run yeah.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: And then you had some other drop backs.
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: He had two scrambles, and on the scrambles, one is
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: where they're moving the pocket, so he already got him
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: kind of in movement mode and then he sees it
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: and takes it.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: The other one was a.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Trick play, another one of the trick plays that they tried,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: and it wasn't there. So he takes off and runs.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: But there's not this panic. There's not this I got
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: to get out of here. I got to get out
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: of here. And he's finding check down. So he's starting
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: to realize. Look, I don't think DeAndre Swift's a great
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: runner of the football, but he's actually really valuable in
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: the screen game and catching the ball out of the
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: back field. And you know, look, he's been with him twice.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Ben Johnson's had him twice. I think he knows who
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: and what he is. But they're figuring out a way
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: to get him the ball and those opportunities, which shows
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: growth to me from Caleb. But that was you know, hey, look,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: if you can just start with the simple things, let's
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: hit guys when they're you know, make it wide open.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: He's doing that. Let's let's not just try and you know,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: make some incredible scramble play on every single drop back.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: He's doing a better job of that. And he's finding
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: his he's finding his outlet, he's finding his checkdown buck.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: Those are three tangible ways we can say Caleb Williams
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: has shown growth in getting better.
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think it was a perfect storm playing
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: the Chicago Bears. Chicago Bears are simplest. I mean, playing
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: the boys. Matu is simplistic by design. Made Tampa two.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: They're not gonna do a lot of disguise. It's gonna
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: be very easy for them in terms of seeing what
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: they're doing. The PICI is not gonna change a lot
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: post snap, and then it's a matter of are you
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: disciplined enough to take what's available now.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: The thing is, you should not see.
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: The bust that you're seeing from the cow Boys, given
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: the simplicity of the scheme.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: None.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: I don't think there was a two. I was looking
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: for the two. I didn't see that too. You should
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: not care.
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: You should not see these breakdowns, And to me, it
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: speaks to a lack of discipline and a lack of
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: attention to detail from their players because look, I know, look,
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: I've seen this defense with Maddy Eberflus work successfully in
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: Indianapolis and all those things. But for whatever reason, there's
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: there's a disconnect up front. And it also doesn't help
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: when you have no one, I mean no one who
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: can rush the passer.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I don't care what defense you play.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: If you can't affect a quarterback, you got no chance
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: in this league.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, well it speaks to just one big, like
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: a league wide issue. I see, Like I know everybody
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: says quarterback driven league, it's a cornerback driven league.
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: And I see some of the worst corner play right now.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: There's not enough of them, Nick, you begin with, and
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: then they're asking guys that aren't very good to do
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: things that they're not very good at. And so I
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: just see the shortage of good corners in this business
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: right now. And if you can get three or four
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: of them that can stay on the field and stay healthy,
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: then you're way ahead of the curve of how you
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: want to play defense.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: No doubt, Baldy Cleveland, Green Bay. That may be the
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: most shocking result of the weekend.
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: It was, except this.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: Is third three weeks in a row now where the
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: defense has carried this team, and they got after Jordan
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: Love in the past game, they completely shut down your run.
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: Josh Jacobs got a couple.
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: But these two rookies, Mason Graham and Carson's Wessinger, like
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: they're incredible, Like they know how to play the game.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: Questioner is sideline and sideline.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: He got a sacked the other day coming out of
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: you know, out there somewhere in the curl flat, you know,
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: like he was twenty yards away from Jordan Love and
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: got him down. But he comes one hundred miles out
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: ro Mason Graham. The thing that impressed me, dj is.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: I didn't think he was going to be a good
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: pass rusher. I thought he had played with leverage. I
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: thought he was technically sound. You see all that in
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: the run game. But he knows how to get on
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: the edge. He knows and and because of the way
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: Schwartze gets after it, either by adding a fifth rusher
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: or their twist stunts that they run, like that's sometimes
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: all you need to move that quarterback. And then here
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: comes Alex right, We're here comes uh, you know, Elie
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: Collins on a pick and like they really affected the
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: passing game of green Bay. And I don't think anybody
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: thought they could do that to green Bay.
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: And that was that.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: They did it for three quarters to Baltimore the week
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: before they completely shut down Derrick Henry.
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: They did it to Joe Burrow week one. They should
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: have won that game. You don't need stats at all
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: to watch Cleveland say that's the best defensive football.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple of things. Buck.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: By the way, we're gonna I'm gonna put forth a
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: nominee show of hands. Can we nominate Jim Schwartz for
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: our coordinator of the week. We're gonna go h we
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: get a three for three from that shorts he wins
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: that award.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: He loves to hear that too deep.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, uh Graham. Going back through, I've watched
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: I've won him every week. It's kind of been a
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: pet project because he was getting so much grief. He
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: pukes at a practice and then in the preseason he
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: gets flat backed by by I don't know it was
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Trey Smith or whoever in one play, and it's like, oh,
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: so now we have a verdict on the guy that
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: every thought, we all agreed was a really good player
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: at Michigan. So I've watched him each and every week
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: and then watch him going through this week. He have
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: four pressures. He's got an innate feel on games, like
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: when you run games that's not everybody, Oh, it's just simple.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: There's a feel of technique to that. He's very good
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: at it. That he's that wrestler. So he plays with
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: the leverage he's gotten that little push pull, little snatch move.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: He's got such upper strength and corp strength, and he's
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: able to get guys off their skis a little bit
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, you look and he
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: beats you with just a pure get off and he's
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: just ripping through and getting pressure that way against the run.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: Everybody knows he's because of the wrestling thing. Front side
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: leverage all no problem. He's winning backside with quickness and
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: making plays on the backside. Beat and cut off them off.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Can't cut him off. So he's been awesome. And I
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: was thinking about this trade, uh buck, from this standpoint,
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: do you remember the the Stafford golf trade? And the
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: whole thing was, Okay, they're tradings. The Detroit's trading Stafford
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: for a bunch of for draft picks because they want.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: To get younger. And then there's golf, like it was
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: the it was Bill that.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, golf was kind of the other piece, whereas and
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: then Cleveland was, hey, we don't have our quarterbacks, so
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: we're going to trade this pick with Travis Hunter available
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: for draft picks. You know, that's kind of the and
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: then and then oh yeah, they ended up getting Mason Graham.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: Like I feel like Mason Graham and Jared Goff weren't
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: the key components of those trades. And in some ways
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: it's like, well, hold up, let's pay attention here. Jared
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: Goff obviously is huge with the with the Lions and
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: their success. Mason Graham, that's the cherry on top because
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: they're going to have two first round picks next year.
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: You know, it's funny because I hate you guys raving
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: about their defense. And I think in the middle of
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: this game, uh Ketas and Fanski had an epiphany and
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: we'll continue to have an epiphany in terms of how
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: this team needs to play. Quin Shawne Jenkins gets eighteen carries,
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: ninety four rushing yards.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: He's averaging over five yards and carry.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: And when you have a great defense, as we're talking
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: about the best defense in football, the Cleveland Browns have
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: to embrace an ugly brand of ball that can make
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: it make them really the team no one wants to face,
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: because as the weather turns and as it gets cold,
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: and as you're having to go to the dog pound,
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: they can run the football effectively with the rookie, They
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: can play great defense. They can make every game like
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: a game of half court basketball, and all it takes
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: is a turnover or two and you look up and
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: you walk out of there with an l if. They
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: embrace who they are with a great defense and compliment
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: it with a very conservative, run oriented offense.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: This team.
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: I'm not saying they're gonna be a playoff team, but
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: they could be a tough out that you don't want
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: to have to deal with each and every week.
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: The other part to the draft process DJ is so
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: they take Quinn Shawn Jenkins, you know, in the in
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: the second round, and then they get Dylan Samson. Ye,
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: and you watch these two guys like, you don't need
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: anybody else. You got two fresh legs, they can practice.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: Samson catches the ball great, Quinn Shawn is your number one.
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: Like they've got a real combination right now going forward.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: And look, I mean Nick Chubb was a great player,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: but honestly, it almost goes back to that, you know,
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: not de emphasizing running backs is you want great running backs.
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: But what's wrong with drafting too, you know what's right,
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: what's wrong with drafting? You know the sweet spot in
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: the second round where a lot of these guys fall,
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: and then go get yourself that fourth round pick like
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Samson and you know out of Tennessee and a little
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: bit of a guy can do everything.
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's pretty good approach.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: So you mentioned the two running backs Harold fannin Bucks, that's.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: That's very often rookies. Isaiah.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: We talked about Swetzs and Gerry and Graham, like, that's
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: a heck of a draft class man.
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and that la Aiden Huntington is a good player. Yeah,
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: he's the lead back on the touchdown.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: He's a he's a you know, he's a rotating kid
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: on defensive tackles. You know, he's a free agent at
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: a two lane, but he's he's in the mix special
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: teams all three phase.
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: Of the game.
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: It's a it's a nice little you know, uh, being
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: able to use his abilities.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: No question.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: I want to get to some more young guys as
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: we get to this next game here Jets and Bucks
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: and uh, you know, it's funny.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: I watched this game just looking at it.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: I want to watch a couple of things, and I saw,
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: like Levonte David had eleven tackles. Levonte David's thirty five
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: years old, you know, so I wanted to watch that.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: And this is why he keep the box. Scores can
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: be different than the game. So you go watch it
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: and I'm actually go through the tape and I'm like,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: you know, he actually missed a sack, missed a couple
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: of tackles, potentially I think tackles for loss, like he
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: could have had a monster game, and I think twenty
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: five year old Levante David that's like, that's like an
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: old school eighteen tackle two sack like elite, elite performance.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: But he's still he's still good. He just not you know,
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: kind of what he was. And then you look on
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: the other side to see Mike Evan. Mike Evans makes
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: a couple of plays. Mike Evin I think had three
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: drops when I was going through there looking at that
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: where he had opportunities. So again, Mike Evans not quite
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: what he was. So if you're a general manager and
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: you've got some good aging players who are unbelievable leaders
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: and winners and future Hall of famers, then man, we
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: got to supplement them with some good young players. And Baldi,
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: I look, get a Mecca Buka. It is every week
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: he's doing some freaky stuff. Man, it's unreal.
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: The one handed catch was unreal. I mean, pump that
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: right to his resume. Real. Baker implicitly trusts him.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: I mean the you know, Evans gets hurt, you know
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: they I mean like they have backup to backups on
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: the offensive line. They didn't have one guy in their
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: natural spot. They lose mockt they you know, they lose
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: the right guard. I mean it was all backups in there,
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: and you know you're going up against you know, Will
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: McDonald and Quinn Williams. They made plays, but you know,
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: Baker just he's just so crafty man with the ball,
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: like his ability just to be able. It's like squeezing jello,
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: like he's gonna find somewhere to come out of and
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: extend the play.
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: But ultimately he's gonna find a buka for a big play.
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: And I don't know, Like I know, Sauce Garter was
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: a high pick and he's gotten paid big, but man,
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: those penalties that he's committed.
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: Two weeks in a row.
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: I started for what started and you give them a
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: first down, like you can't if you have a free
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: agent out there and he's just you know, you just
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: called a kid up from a practice squad.
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: You might expect that miscape. You can't, like sales can't
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: make that mistake.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree with you. And in theory are
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: about it. I thought that specific one was. Yeah, there
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: was a whole lot there. Man, they kind of each
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: got their hand out touching each other. I don't think
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: it impacted to throw it all. And I was actually
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: I had a Jets fan friend as a baseball guy.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: It sent me a text and he was like.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: Can they fix this rule where it just we're just
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: going to bail out these offenses on third and forever
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: you get a tick tack TICKI tech penalty and that's
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: that's a that's not a ten to fifteen yard penalty.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: That's a massive penalty, and you kind of bail out
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: the offense almost like Buck. I don't know if you
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: ever you know, being in both those position rooms and
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: as a receiver and a DA it's almost liked, man,
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: come on, let's have you ever complained to refle like, hey,
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: let's have a little awareness of like this is your
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: barrel on these guys out on.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: Is one of my biggest gripes with the rule.
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: I think they make it too easy to throw balls
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: up in these desperate situations and reward the offense with
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: a first down look. Sauce Gardener has to be aware.
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: Sauce Garden's played in the all pro level. He has
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: to play better, giving the money, a conversation and the expectation,
• 38:30
  Speaker 4: but he can't put his team in that situation. As
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: I go back and I look at the bucks Man,
• 38:36
  Speaker 4: Baker Mayfield, third week in a row, game winning drive,
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: finishes in the final minute, making a strong case for
• 38:42
  Speaker 4: the MVP. And I think we've said this when we
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: look at him, we look at Daniel Jones, we look
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: at some of these other quarterbacks.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: Man, you can't give up on a quarterback too soon.
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: The right environment, scheme, player supporting cast, all those things
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: can really help a player find his role. And I
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: think Baker Mayfield and Tampa and best version of Baker
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: that we've ever seen, and it's only going to get
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: better as they continue to believe in him and empower
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: him not only on the field but with the people
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: that they put around him to really compliment his game
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: and allow him to be at his best every week.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Baldy, can I ask you a question on this real quick?
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: On that point, the Buck just made so talking with
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: personnel guys around the league, and we're early in the
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: college season, but there hasn't been you know, Mendoz has
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: played well at Indiana, but there hasn't been anybody just
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: wowing anybody from the quarterback standpoint. So they were one
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: of them asked me you know, hey, who do you
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: think will emerge? Who you think will be that guy?
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: And I said, I don't know, man. You look around
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: the league and now you see Daniel Jones light in
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: the world on fire. And we've seen Sam, we've seen Baker,
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: we've seen go We've seen all these guys.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: So I kind of put it. I wrote it down
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: like this.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: If we're looking at the maybe a recycled quarterback new
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: opportunity versus a draftable quarterback. If we just did these
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: three categories age, well, these guys you're getting recycled. There
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: are still young guys. They've been they've been pushed through
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: the system, and they're still twenty five, twenty six years old,
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: in some cases younger. So the age is not really different.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: The talent level, well, they were both viewed talented enough
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: to be first round picks, so that's somewhat similar. So
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: then we get to the third column, the risk, Well,
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: no risk, there's no risk, I mean Baker or why
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: wouldn't you lean in that direction?
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, just to throw the next name out
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: there is Carson Wentz. Yeah, I mean Kevin O'Connell traded
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: Sam how Away for a reason. He's like Carson Wentz
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: is sitting on a couch. I know Sean McVay liked him.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: I know Kyle like all these guys places that he's been,
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: Andy Reid liked them. He went out opening drive, right
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: down the field, three plays, touchdown. He didn't play great great,
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: but he played pretty good. I mean the talent level,
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: the size, you know, the ability just to move, the
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: arm strength, all of that is still there. And they're
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: going to get Jordan Adison back this week. You know,
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: It's it was like they can win games with Carson
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: right now. Mac Jones played played very well two weeks
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: in a row, you know, I mean here we are, yes,
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, do you want you want to take all
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: of these retrans for nothing? Basically, they didn't pay Carson
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: any money and here he is winning games for it.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: So, Baldy, you weren't on the show, but I think
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: last Thursday or Friday we talked about this. We talked
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: about if I am a quarterback that has to go
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: in the relate reclamation reclamation, Yeah, yeah, if I got
• 41:30
  Speaker 4: to go in that cycle, I want to get into
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: a scheme that is prevalent across the league. Yeah, I
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: want to be coach with coaches that can pick up
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: the phone and vouch for me. When you think about
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: the mac Jones, you think about what Carson Wentz has
• 41:44
  Speaker 4: been through, you think about Baker, all those guys went
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: to systems and quarterbacks, Well now it's prevalent it went.
• 41:51
  Speaker 5: To graduate school. They all went to graduate school.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they walk away with their nbas and had they
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: have an opportunity to really rebuild their career and make
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: it better. That is the move that I think everyone
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: should be looking for. I am shaking the trees trying
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: to find the next young cast off quarterback that I
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: can rebuild and repair and make into a solid starter.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: It's not only getting coached by those guys, Baldy, it's
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: like you're learning a language. Like Okay, he already speaks
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: my language. He's been with the guy that runs the
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: same exact stuff and terminology is very somach what we're doing.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: But you know, if you if you look at Okay,
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: the school that you're going to, let's say the Sewn
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: McVeigh school, Baker Mayfield, it's you know, traded on a Tuesday.
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: On Thursday, he's starting and winning a game. You know,
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: Kevin O'Connell's taking guys from Arizona, putting them in the line.
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: He's telling them what to do each play, and they're
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: winning a football game. There's something about these guys that
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: they know how to program these quarterbacks. You talking about
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: a language, DJ, it's like you know, you know, it's
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: it's it's like one of those language things where you
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: can learn it in thirty days.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: You know, Stone languages.
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Rosetta stone, the McVay stone, Shanahan stone. Change
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: the name of this whole thing. All right, let's get
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: to one more game before we got to catch a
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: loose baldy and that was the Sunday night game.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Have a weird game, Kansas City and the Giants. What
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: you got.
• 43:11
  Speaker 5: Well?
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, Russell Wilson was horrible Week one against Washington
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: and he was awful last week. They have plays to
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: be made. I mean the last the last four plays
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: were you you're hitting the crossbar with the ball and
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: fourth down like that. They can't make melite neighbors isible.
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: How is melik neighbors invisible?
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: It's just hold on, hold on, hold on, boy, hold on.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you exactly how. And I went through and
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: looked at his targets. I was like, I don't know
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: how this is not a factor. So every overthrown deep
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: balls just hero like you got double covered down the field,
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: which is going to throw the ball fifty feet in
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: the air and hope for the best there. They hit
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: him on a hitch what they were, which they were
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: laid on, and then they hit them on a slant
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: which was an easy pickings. But like outside of that,
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: it was just hand garnads. Just throw it up and
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: as high as you can. In the double game plan,
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: there is.
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: An it's not an offense. And you could call the
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: designers bad. The quarterback can't see, you know, last week
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: Dallas gave him vision.
• 44:08
  Speaker 5: They have no pass rush. He just took his got shots,
• 44:11
  Speaker 5: his go shots.
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: Okay through for four p fifty he was as bad
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: as he was yesterday as he was Week one against Washington.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know what we've established, Buck is the Cowboys
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: are terrible on the defensive side of the ball.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: That's what we've established. Yeah, just really bad.
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: And you know the thing about the Giants and not
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: the belaver but yeah, Malik Neighbors needs to get in.
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: And then when you do put Jackson Dart in, it's
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: kind of like the predictable offense and play. He's gonna
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: come in for one play, run this, then get out.
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: At some point, man, you need to throw him in
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: the pool, Like just throw him in the pool. Let's
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: say you sweat them with Remart. Yeah, running this offense,
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: Let's try and figure out how to do it. Because
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: I do believe this. They got something in the running
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: back in camp scatter of it. There's something that you
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: can build around. They have enough where they can be
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: a functional offense that can pick up first downs and
• 44:57
  Speaker 4: score points.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: The trigger man is what was holding him back. They
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: got to put Jackson Dort in there. Well.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: The thing on scataboo real quick baldy that he does
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: the thing that all Scott used to do. When you
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: go back and watch him where it comes. Normally, when
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: you see guys run people over, they accelerate into contact,
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: their feet are alive and they kind of just run
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: through them. His feet stop. He just kind of pops
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: and like it's a little just short, little six inch
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: he just kind of punches them and then he kind
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: of skirts away. It's very unique. He looks like a
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: little shrunk down a little mike. Allstart out there.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: Well, that's a good call, and it's true because you
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: can't get to his legs now from Texas legs.
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: You can't get his legs.
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: You're not getting him down on the ground real real
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: quick before I run here, watching Isaiah Rodgers and Minnesota
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: play this weekend from the pick six to start the
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: fumble recovery, like that guy was. You know, that guy
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: was probably the second best corner in Philly right now,
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: and Minnesota picked him up. And Brian Flores just knows
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: how to use these chest pieces. But what are performance
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: by Isaiah Rodgers yesterday? Vikings and Steelers. They led the
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: league and take away a year ago with thirty three.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: They both had five yesterday and they both need well.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: The Vikings blew them out, but the Steelers needed all
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: five because their offense still is a real challenge.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I won't hit on the rest of those games tomorrow.
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: Baldi's been great this time, by the way, the chief
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: side of that thing when they needed it in the
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: second half. Offensively they came alive a little bit. Defensively
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: they were excellent.
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: I don't you know.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: I think that was a good, hopeful sign for them.
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: But I'm not going to read too much into it.
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: Let's see next week Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs. We're
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: talking about that next week, looking forward to that one. Guys, Hey, Baldy,
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: you're the best brother. We appreciate you.
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: Have a great week. I see you next Monday. You
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: better all see it all right, Buck.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: That was a fun one getting a chance to catch
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: up with Baldy and rip through those games again. We
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: will hit the games we did not touch tomorrow and
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: roll through those ones. But what a while weekend football
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: man DJ.
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: The league continues to let you know that is a
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: one score league, no matter how bad you think the
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: team is, no matter how good you think the team is,
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: is always within a and it's about playing the right
• 47:02
  Speaker 4: way or whatever. It's just it's just amazing to see
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: the parody that exists within the league and how you
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: have to play the right raate each and every week
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: to chuckle these dupes.
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: No doubt, fun weekend, fun show today. We'll be back tomorrow.
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: We'll hit the rest of those games. We'll have our
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: rookie recap and rookie draft for the next week. Quin
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: John Jenkins is gonna find his way into getting picked.
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: I can tell you that much after what he looked like.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: It's good week for the leave, good week for a lot.
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: Of the rookies.
• 47:25
