- 0:18Speaker 2: I love it.
- 0:19Speaker 3: It's football, it's getting me ready for the games coming up,
- 0:22Speaker 3: and it's a physical practice out there, played by physical people.
- 0:26Speaker 3: So it got intense and we were just really enjoying it.
- 0:30Speaker 3: And sometimes in the dog days of summer, practice gets
- 0:34Speaker 3: long and the intensity runs high, free solid.
- 0:42Speaker 4: Back out here at Broncos Park.

- 0:50Speaker 2: and attorney ramas Law dot com. It's our final day
- 0:53Speaker 2: out at camp before they kick us out of here.
- 0:55Speaker 4: Chad Brown with us today.
- 0:59Speaker 2: The fights. Talked a lot about them today. That happened
- 1:02Speaker 2: yesterday in camp, and I think for good reason it happens.
- 1:08Speaker 2: I can't remember the last time that there wasn't some
- 1:11Speaker 2: sort of a skirmish we'll call it scuffle scuffle at
- 1:15Speaker 2: a Broncos camp. It's it's not something that coaches want, obviously,
- 1:20Speaker 2: but it's something that's just I guess part of what's
- 1:24Speaker 2: ingrained through it now. Chad, you said in your years
- 1:26Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, you played for super physical Steelers teams that
- 1:31Speaker 2: fights weren't a common occurrence or didn't happen every year,
- 1:35Speaker 2: We're not correct. Yeah, it feels like a lot of
- 1:40Speaker 2: these places, especially when he gets to joint practices. And
- 1:43Speaker 2: let me ask you this, because it's one thing to
- 1:46Speaker 2: have a little scuffle between your own teammates because you're
- 1:48Speaker 2: doing this over and over and over again. It's another
- 1:51Speaker 2: thing where I've heard multiple coaches around the league talk
- 1:53Speaker 2: about they're hesitant now to do joint practices because they
- 1:58Speaker 2: think it's almost unproductive with the amount of fights that
- 2:00Speaker 2: do seem to happen and joint practices. Did you enjoy
- 2:04Speaker 2: that stuff, the joint practice.
- 2:06Speaker 5: Or I did not. Now, the Steelers, we did them
- 2:09Speaker 5: against Buffalo, and Buffalo was in there heyday with Jim
- 2:13Speaker 5: Kelly and Bruce Smith and so those guys didn't even practice,
- 2:17Speaker 5: so we practiced against their backups. So I think after
- 2:20Speaker 5: a while coach Kyra decided it wasn't worth the time
- 2:23Speaker 5: and effort to put into it to go up to
- 2:25Speaker 5: Edinburgh and drive the buses and do all that because
- 2:28Speaker 5: we weren't going against their ones, and they practiced in
- 2:31Speaker 5: a complete different way than we did, and so to
- 2:34Speaker 5: mesh those together and for it to be productive for
- 2:36Speaker 5: both sides. In the end, it didn't work for Bill
- 2:39Speaker 5: kyr That's why he stopped doing it. And I think
- 2:41Speaker 5: that's why some of these coaches are beginning to look
- 2:42Speaker 5: at this joint practice thing, which was initially I thought
- 2:45Speaker 5: a great idea. This is a way we can script
- 2:48Speaker 5: up things. Hey, coach, we want to work on short
- 2:51Speaker 5: yards and goal line, Well, great, so do we, So
- 2:53Speaker 5: you can script those periods out that you may not
- 2:55Speaker 5: get the opportunity to do in a preseason game. But
- 2:59Speaker 5: at the players are going to fight. If we're gonna
- 3:01Speaker 5: have two different practice styles that we can't bring together,
- 3:04Speaker 5: then we're wasting time.
- 3:05Speaker 6: The reason that I liked him when they were here
- 3:08Speaker 6: obviously it just broke up the monotony for a guy
- 3:10Speaker 6: like me, you know, And it's always.
- 3:13Speaker 2: That's exactly right.
- 3:15Speaker 6: I don't care if it's good for the Broncos, no, no,
- 3:17Speaker 6: but it would break up the manati, you know what
- 3:18Speaker 6: I mean. And then, of course, a couple of years ago,
- 3:20Speaker 6: I fall in love with Jordan love throwing the football.
- 3:23Speaker 6: I mean, he's got a beautiful arm and so you
- 3:26Speaker 6: know what, I love it, love, I love love, love love.
- 3:31Speaker 6: But you know, I mean, but it's funny we would
- 3:33Speaker 6: sit here.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Was one of the cowboys in here? How long ago
- 3:36Speaker 2: was that?
- 3:37Speaker 6: That was.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Two or three years? But it cracks me up. Eighty
- 3:42Speaker 2: seven buses. Yeah, I'm like, well, who are they? Who
- 3:46Speaker 2: are they bringing the entire city of Dallas? What are
- 3:48Speaker 2: we doing here? So it's it's probably more painting the
- 3:50Speaker 2: butt than it really is worth.
- 3:52Speaker 5: I think if you do it correctly and everyone's on
- 3:54Speaker 5: the same page, and both coaches issue warning to their
- 3:58Speaker 5: teams about fighting, it can be productive and it can
- 4:01Speaker 5: test where you are. When the forty nine Ers came
- 4:05Speaker 5: here and did two practices before a preseason game, I
- 4:08Speaker 5: was with the forty nine ers that offseason with an internship,
- 4:10Speaker 5: was not here for training camp, was not with them
- 4:12Speaker 5: for training camp. But they came the first day and
- 4:14Speaker 5: they blew the Broncos off the field with their energy,
- 4:17Speaker 5: as I expected that they would. But the Broncos responded
- 4:20Speaker 5: the next day and brought their own energy. So sometimes
- 4:23Speaker 5: it's great because we've been practicing at this level, we're here,
- 4:26Speaker 5: comes in another team that's at a different level. Oh
- 4:30Speaker 5: my goodness. We got to find a way to match this,
- 4:32Speaker 5: and the Broncos did the next day.
- 4:33Speaker 6: Was that the time that you and Vic, we were
- 4:35Speaker 6: all standing there and here comes Jimmy Garoppolo and you
- 4:38Speaker 6: guys just about fond all over yourself for Jimmy Garoppolo.
- 4:41Speaker 4: Do you remember that it's a good looking guy. I
- 4:43Speaker 4: don't know if you have, I would.
- 4:45Speaker 5: I get that he's a very good looking man.
- 4:47Speaker 2: I get that, But.
- 4:48Speaker 6: These two are like, these two are like you know,
- 4:51Speaker 6: at a boy band con.
- 4:53Speaker 2: I mean, they were just going. It's the same thing
- 4:55Speaker 2: that happened the first time I saw Sierra walk by us.
- 4:57Speaker 2: I was like, that's a beautiful human being. What do
- 4:59Speaker 2: you want me to do? Stow it, Alice?
- 5:04Speaker 5: Never mind, you didn't watch that show, Alice.
- 5:06Speaker 2: No, well, I'm thinking to Honeymooners, Rolf Gram. Stow it, Alice.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Wait, you you hit me about to say anything reference
- 5:14Speaker 4: and you go back to the give me.
- 5:17Speaker 6: It did not land well, It landed poorly. It was
- 5:19Speaker 6: a shanked field goal. I completely admitted.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, though, Chad, because you you
- 5:24Speaker 2: spent a decade and a half in the league, been
- 5:26Speaker 2: through training camps, preseasons, all this different stuff. You're a veteran,
- 5:30Speaker 2: you're a proven guy, very good player in the league,
- 5:32Speaker 2: Pro Bowl player, All Pro. Did you feel like you
- 5:36Speaker 2: needed to play in the preseason?
- 5:38Speaker 5: Absolutely? Did I need all four? Nope, but I needed
- 5:43Speaker 5: at least two.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:44Speaker 5: I needed at least too. The first time you put
- 5:47Speaker 5: pads on in practice, I would at some point I
- 5:51Speaker 5: would smash my thumb between my helmet and someone else's helmet.
- 5:55Speaker 5: So it's like, you know, Ricky Bobby Talladega Knights, I
- 5:57Speaker 5: don't know what to do with my hands. Yeah, my
- 5:59Speaker 5: hands aren't going to the right places. And then after
- 6:01Speaker 5: a couple of days, I get my hand placement down. Okay, well,
- 6:04Speaker 5: we've done a little bit of tackling, but I haven't
- 6:06Speaker 5: done full speed tackling. Now I can see it in
- 6:07Speaker 5: the game, and I can see, Oh, my angle was
- 6:10Speaker 5: a bit off. I didn't drive through the thigh, I
- 6:11Speaker 5: hit the hip. You know, let me improve that for
- 6:14Speaker 5: this next game. You can't replicate football in a practice
- 6:17Speaker 5: situation the same way you can in games. So I
- 6:19Speaker 5: needed that. There were some other great players who I
- 6:22Speaker 5: was around who didn't need it, but for me, absolutely,
- 6:25Speaker 5: every season I wanted to play in at least two
- 6:27Speaker 5: preseason games.
- 6:28Speaker 2: My assumption is going to be because we're only a
- 6:31Speaker 2: couple of days away now from the second preseason game
- 6:33Speaker 2: against Green Bay, my assumption is that I think Bonnix
- 6:37Speaker 2: is gonna play in this one.
- 6:38Speaker 4: It's at home. It's he's gonna you know what I mean,
- 6:41Speaker 4: He's gonna play.
- 6:42Speaker 2: And and Sean Payton is somebody who is obviously a
- 6:45Speaker 2: fan of getting his guys at least a few reps.
- 6:47Speaker 4: I mean, what did the starters play in that first game?
- 6:50Speaker 4: Was it three? Three drives? Or two drives in that
- 6:53Speaker 4: first game?
- 6:54Speaker 5: At least two?
- 6:55Speaker 2: It was at least two. He wants to get them
- 6:57Speaker 2: at least some reps. And I think that's a smart
- 6:59Speaker 2: thing to do. Like I believe there's something too, you know,
- 7:03Speaker 2: when you can't go full bore what we were just
- 7:05Speaker 2: talking about in practice, a lot of times fight stem
- 7:07Speaker 2: from somebody's going ninety percent when you're going seventy. And
- 7:11Speaker 2: then it's you get into a fight about how how
- 7:15Speaker 2: are we going to go here? Man, Let's make a decision, right.
- 7:19Speaker 2: But in a preseason game, like you're going like you're going,
- 7:23Speaker 2: that's a game and so question. I think getting your
- 7:26Speaker 2: your body calloused to that kind of stuff matters too.
- 7:29Speaker 2: Like you said, get your your thumb smashed in between
- 7:31Speaker 2: a face mask or something like that. I think sometimes
- 7:33Speaker 2: just feeling the hit of a full one percent tackle
- 7:37Speaker 2: gets you in a better mindset heading into the season.
- 7:40Speaker 5: You have to develop a tough skin. So for the
- 7:43Speaker 5: players who hold out all trading camp long, they don't
- 7:46Speaker 5: get a chance to do that. Those first couple of weeks,
- 7:48Speaker 5: they are incredibly sore. A hit that would not cause
- 7:52Speaker 5: a bruise week ten is some massive bruise on someone's
- 7:56Speaker 5: tricep or thigh because they haven't developed and callous their
- 7:59Speaker 5: body to with and the riggers of playing professional football.
- 8:02Speaker 5: You have to toughen yourself up to do this.
- 8:04Speaker 6: Which is why we go back to that hacket camp.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Yes, oh my god, no callous, no nothing, man, nothing
- 8:10Speaker 2: they were doing from the get go. And I'm not
- 8:11Speaker 2: saying that you need.
- 8:12Speaker 6: To tackle, because again I think it was that that's
- 8:15Speaker 6: the year that the Lions run hard knocks, right If
- 8:18Speaker 6: I'm not mistakes, and I'm like, I've seen more tackling
- 8:22Speaker 6: in the first minute and a half of hard knocks
- 8:24Speaker 6: than at all of Broncos camp for two weeks, right,
- 8:27Speaker 6: and I'm not seeing the Dan Campbell wayte the way
- 8:29Speaker 6: to do it. But there's how you can't prepare for
- 8:31Speaker 6: football without hitting somebody, can you?
- 8:33Speaker 4: Well that's what I think.
- 8:34Speaker 2: That's what he said in that that first episode is
- 8:37Speaker 2: he goes, I know you guys are looking at me
- 8:39Speaker 2: crazy that we're going full pads and tackling, Goes, I
- 8:41Speaker 2: believe in getting your body calloused, and how do you
- 8:43Speaker 2: practice tackling without actually tackling?
- 8:45Speaker 4: Was his whole thing. Now I almost saw it, like you, Moje.
- 8:48Speaker 2: We talked to Leggy, I think a couple of days
- 8:51Speaker 2: after that first episode came out, and I was like.
- 8:55Speaker 4: What's more normal?
- 8:56Speaker 2: Is it what Hacket's doing or is what we watched
- 8:58Speaker 2: on HBO? And he goes, I think they're both pretty extreme,
- 9:01Speaker 2: and it felt that way. But I mean you look
- 9:04Speaker 2: at the team, like, you know, it's been really good
- 9:06Speaker 2: over the last few years. The rams have been pretty good.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Yea mcvaiga, he bubble up everybody.
- 9:13Speaker 4: Stafford doesn't take a snap of the preseason.
- 9:15Speaker 6: And but he's mad.
- 9:18Speaker 2: But none of them, none of them. I almost guarantee
- 9:21Speaker 2: you if Aaron Donald signs today with the Rams. He's
- 9:25Speaker 2: not playing a snap until that season starts.
- 9:26Speaker 6: I'm sure he's Aaron Donald, he's Hall of Fame.
- 9:30Speaker 2: But he's been out of the game for is it
- 9:32Speaker 2: two you're right, You're right, like that's a long time.
- 9:35Speaker 5: I'd be curious what the Rams first four game win
- 9:39Speaker 5: loss record is over the over Sean mcvay's time when
- 9:42Speaker 5: he's done this, because we know what the seventeen game,
- 9:45Speaker 5: and now with the eighteen game on the horizon, coaches
- 9:47Speaker 5: are beginning to treat the first quarter of the season
- 9:51Speaker 5: as an extension of the preseason, and so they are
- 9:54Speaker 5: more comfortable with going to Sean mcavay route because we'll
- 9:56Speaker 5: get our guys up to speed in those four But
- 9:59Speaker 5: I'm curious with what the MS record is, and I'm
- 10:01Speaker 5: curious about from an injury standpoint, to put guys out
- 10:04Speaker 5: there who haven't toughened and cows themselves again. I would
- 10:09Speaker 5: feel uncomfortable with that if that was asked of me.
- 10:13Speaker 5: If Sean McVay said, chat, I don't want you to
- 10:15Speaker 5: play some entire preseason, I would push back and say, respectfully, coach,
- 10:19Speaker 5: I need some reps. You can give me two series
- 10:22Speaker 5: in game two and two series in game three and
- 10:25Speaker 5: I'll be out. That'll be good enough for me.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Get out of your hair.
- 10:27Speaker 5: But I gotta get that. I gotta get some of
- 10:29Speaker 5: that done.
- 10:29Speaker 2: So it looks like McVeigh in his first six seasons,
- 10:33Speaker 2: in the month of September, he was sixteen to four
- 10:35Speaker 2: woo wow.
- 10:38Speaker 6: So he found something that works for him obviously with
- 10:40Speaker 6: those guys. But I mean, look, I talk about this
- 10:42Speaker 6: and I think at least twice a week I look
- 10:44Speaker 6: at the Rams roster. Do you know how good they're
- 10:47Speaker 6: gonna be if Aaron Donald, if Aaron Donald is inserted
- 10:50Speaker 6: back into the middle of that line, do you realize
- 10:53Speaker 6: how good this team is. I don't know that anybody can.
- 10:56Speaker 6: But there's a reason feel unbeatable to me.
- 10:59Speaker 5: There's a reason why if you have a cup of
- 11:01Speaker 5: coffee with Sean McVay, you get a head coaching interview. Yeah,
- 11:04Speaker 5: he's an incredibly good coach. And for college football, with
- 11:07Speaker 5: Kirk Signetti, with they do an hour and a half practice.
- 11:10Speaker 5: They're very efficient with their practice style. So not every
- 11:13Speaker 5: not everyone can replicate some of the basics of that
- 11:18Speaker 5: and still meet the level of success because you're not
- 11:21Speaker 5: Kirk Signetti. You're not Sean McVay. So you want to
- 11:24Speaker 5: take this thing that they do and think that's going
- 11:27Speaker 5: to bring you the same success. It does not work
- 11:29Speaker 5: that way.
- 11:30Speaker 4: Yeah, chats around with us.
- 11:33Speaker 6: What are you doing on? This is gonna die? I
- 11:35Speaker 6: didn't even realize it wasn't plugged in, so I have
- 11:36Speaker 6: to was down between.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Just crawl around.
- 11:40Speaker 6: Chads Chad's caves. There's no great deal. I mean, it's
- 11:42Speaker 6: it's normal.
- 11:45Speaker 2: It was. It was like diving backwards, diving back underneath
- 11:48Speaker 2: the table, is like, what's going on here? What was
- 11:50Speaker 2: better that or me dodging that b In the first hour,
- 11:54Speaker 2: I had moves. I had moved.
- 11:55Speaker 5: I had showed leticism here because you had to bend

- 12:02Speaker 5: Hey you want it very good.
- 12:04Speaker 2: You're getting up there a little, but you're still in
- 12:05Speaker 2: great shape. Fifty five you want to do exercise?

- 12:17Speaker 6: Bending over, get up off the ground without using your hands.

- 12:54Speaker 4: guys think of this?
- 12:55Speaker 2: North Koreans are being told to drink one liter of
- 12:58Speaker 2: beer to handle the country's heat wave. Officials have said
- 13:01Speaker 2: it's an effective health drink for dispelling the heat, even
- 13:04Speaker 2: though that's been disputed by doctors.
- 13:08Speaker 6: I gotta tell you, pretz moving to North Korea.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Been outside on really hot days and I've had a
- 13:16Speaker 2: glass of water and I've had a beer.
- 13:19Speaker 4: Beer hits better, It cools me down more. I'm just
- 13:23Speaker 4: telling you, mos, you've been in those.
- 13:25Speaker 6: I think a psychological, psychological thing.
- 13:29Speaker 2: But if if you.
- 13:30Speaker 4: Believe it, look at my skin tone.
- 13:33Speaker 2: I'm not the kind of guy that could sit on
- 13:35Speaker 2: the first base side of Coors Field and have a
- 13:37Speaker 2: great time with it.
- 13:38Speaker 4: You know what, I mean you start to cook over there.
- 13:40Speaker 2: You're a third base, third base side and party deck
- 13:43Speaker 2: at night when the sun set.
- 13:45Speaker 5: They used to serve beer at the Tour de France,
- 13:48Speaker 5: did they really? Because it was thinking was that it
- 13:50Speaker 5: would help you with hot days and assurance.
- 13:53Speaker 6: Wait, you mean the cyclists they have beer in.
- 13:58Speaker 5: Those water cups.
- 13:59Speaker 2: You're kidding me.
- 14:00Speaker 5: Yes, there's a long time ago.
- 14:01Speaker 6: Yeah, nineteen thirty seven. Yes, guys get all hopped up.
- 14:06Speaker 2: Well, there's those those monks in like Tibet. Some of
- 14:09Speaker 2: them have gone on forty day fast where they all
- 14:11Speaker 2: they drink his beer, no water, know nothing, They just
- 14:13Speaker 2: drink beer drunk.
- 14:15Speaker 4: And they've they've lived through it. Sounds like the Moses diet.
- 14:19Speaker 5: Beer is like.
- 14:20Speaker 4: Wait a minute, No it doesn't. What do you I
- 14:22Speaker 4: said a fast mode.

- 14:37Speaker 2: training camp this year until the Broncos kick us out.
- 14:40Speaker 2: But it is all brought to you by Ramos Loss.
- 14:42Speaker 2: We have an update here from Adam Schefter. Remember, in
- 14:46Speaker 2: the hour yesterday of joint practice between the Chargers and
- 14:49Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers, the Chargers lost three players due
- 14:52Speaker 2: to injury, including their center Tyler Bidaz, who is out
- 14:56Speaker 2: indefinitely after suffering damage to his a cl additional injuries
- 15:01Speaker 2: to his left knee during that joint practice yesterday.
- 15:04Speaker 4: He will meet with more.
- 15:05Speaker 2: Doctors to try and get more clarity, but it looks
- 15:07Speaker 2: like he's likely out for the season. That is un.
- 15:12Speaker 5: Chargers are going to Charger h.
- 15:14Speaker 6: Dude, I mean again, Quentin Johnson got hurt too? Correct, Yes,
- 15:18Speaker 6: Quentin Johnson got hurt. Who else got hurt? Somebody else?
- 15:20Speaker 6: I forget somebody else got banged up?
- 15:23Speaker 4: Canard their their linebacker?
- 15:25Speaker 2: Okay, so he he did too. I mean no, I
- 15:27Speaker 2: don't know the extent of those injuries. It doesn't seem
- 15:29Speaker 2: like it's as bad as this one, but who knows. Well.
- 15:31Speaker 6: I'm not gonna cry for the Los Angeles Chargers of
- 15:34Speaker 6: Anaheim or whatever they are nowadays. I'm not gonna I'm
- 15:36Speaker 6: not gonna be sad for them. But it feels like
- 15:38Speaker 6: that franchise can't catch a break. I mean, when did
- 15:42Speaker 6: Slater go out last year, he was out. Joe Joe
- 15:46Speaker 6: was Joe ald first immense later I think, yes.
- 15:49Speaker 5: Something like that, and then all came back for a
- 15:50Speaker 5: bit and then it.
- 15:52Speaker 4: Was out again again.
- 15:53Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 15:54Speaker 4: God, God, if you're justin Herbert, are you just like,
- 16:00Speaker 4: can catch a brisk somebody? Can I just have like
- 16:03Speaker 4: three people in front of me, stay alive?
- 16:05Speaker 6: He can just if he's feeling bad about it, he
- 16:07Speaker 6: can just sit on the field and have his girlfriend
- 16:08Speaker 6: pet his head, pet his hair.
- 16:11Speaker 4: That's a new thing, by the way, the hair petting.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Well, it's there's been this, uh, this criticism of quarterbacks
- 16:19Speaker 2: now that all have their their girlfriends or their wives
- 16:21Speaker 2: out there on the field and they're being very touchy feeling.
- 16:25Speaker 2: In his defense, she's hot, no oh sorry, in his defense,
- 16:30Speaker 2: that all the families a run on the field.
- 16:32Speaker 6: Everybody had their their their families out like it's a
- 16:35Speaker 6: picnic or whatever after practice.
- 16:36Speaker 4: All these quarterbacks are dating musicians and actresses.
- 16:40Speaker 6: Now you're talking now you're talking about brosexual stuff, right,
- 16:42Speaker 6: I mean you were just talking about it.
- 16:45Speaker 2: All these young hotshot qbs that Jackson. I think you
- 16:48Speaker 2: can act however you want to if you got I.
- 16:50Speaker 5: Mean, but there's a there's a concerted effort to put
- 16:54Speaker 5: the photos of Justin Herbert and his girlfriend's lash wife
- 16:57Speaker 5: out there.
- 16:59Speaker 2: She's a famous Yeah.
- 17:00Speaker 5: Over the last couple of months, that seems to be
- 17:03Speaker 5: a major push. Someone's behind that. There's dollars behind that.
- 17:07Speaker 5: I quite haven't figured out who or what.
- 17:10Speaker 6: I would imagine it's not coming from the Chargers, but
- 17:12Speaker 6: I would imagine.
- 17:13Speaker 5: That she right her who she is.
- 17:15Speaker 6: She's got a she's got a pr apartment that probably Yeah,
- 17:19Speaker 6: you know, she's with the star quarterback and he's a
- 17:23Speaker 6: pretty boy and she's a pretty girl.
- 17:24Speaker 4: And that's what it is.
- 17:25Speaker 2: Okay, So it is Herbert in Madison Deer is his
- 17:28Speaker 2: uh girlfriend, fiance whatever. Joe Burrow and his girlfriend have
- 17:33Speaker 2: been on the field like that, Jackson Darton his girlfriend obviously.
- 17:36Speaker 2: Josh Allen's married to the Steinfeld girl.
- 17:38Speaker 4: Allen. Yeah, there's been a lot of that going on.
- 17:42Speaker 4: I guess it's a new thing.
- 17:44Speaker 2: If you are a quarterback in the NFL, you need
- 17:46Speaker 2: to have a very famous person that you were.
- 17:48Speaker 5: Once upon a time, family wasn't allowed anywhere near training.
- 17:52Speaker 2: Camp, so it was it was almost like you guys,
- 17:56Speaker 2: literally you went to summer camp. Yes, like a little kid,
- 17:59Speaker 2: like you send them the summer camp and we see, yes.
- 18:02Speaker 5: Your family your Your family's only participations was if you
- 18:06Speaker 5: won the Super Bowl and you got to bring your
- 18:08Speaker 5: kid out to the media interviews. Now family is a
- 18:11Speaker 5: part of their on the field. My kids would have
- 18:14Speaker 5: loved that, My wife would have loved that. So yeah,
- 18:17Speaker 5: this is it's a brand new NFL. I can't be
- 18:20Speaker 5: mad at it. I suppose I can be a little
- 18:22Speaker 5: bit jealous of the easier practice schedule and the fact
- 18:25Speaker 5: that they get to stay in a hotel, not in
- 18:26Speaker 5: a dorm room, and their families get to come and
- 18:28Speaker 5: participate in some way in training camp. When I you know,
- 18:32Speaker 5: I came to my home and the coaching staff and
- 18:34Speaker 5: see I was like, hey, my family wants to come.
- 18:36Speaker 5: Well they can sit in that family section over there
- 18:40Speaker 5: and you can see them after practice. So it's like
- 18:42Speaker 5: I can't even have my son on the field.
- 18:44Speaker 2: You know the the team report cards that come out
- 18:47Speaker 2: every year where every team gives their their teams a
- 18:52Speaker 2: letter grade. The NFL just the one that just lose
- 18:56Speaker 2: every year.
- 18:57Speaker 5: That the owner tried to block the release up was
- 19:00Speaker 5: so mad they scored so poorly.
- 19:02Speaker 2: But it feels like treatment of families was always at
- 19:05Speaker 2: the bottom of the list. Everybody was getting like d's
- 19:08Speaker 2: and f's in those and maybe that's part of the
- 19:12Speaker 2: concerted effort to change all this stuff. Who knows, I mean,
- 19:15Speaker 2: what is treatment of families? Is it what you're talking
- 19:17Speaker 2: about with them being allowed to practice and stuff? Is
- 19:19Speaker 2: it more than that? What do you think it is?
- 19:21Speaker 5: It is at the home game experiences, where does the
- 19:24Speaker 5: family meet you after the game? Are they forced to
- 19:27Speaker 5: meet you in the parking lot? And it's a cold
- 19:29Speaker 5: weather city and so you've got your media obligations, you
- 19:32Speaker 5: got a shower, you gotta do everything else. So the
- 19:34Speaker 5: family sitting around for an hour an hour and a
- 19:36Speaker 5: half after the game at least have a lounge of
- 19:39Speaker 5: some sort, access to something most they do now they
- 19:43Speaker 5: do now. I think the Bengals still have a tent
- 19:46Speaker 5: outside the stadium. I was at a Raiders game last year.
- 19:50Speaker 5: They've got a section in the bowels of the stadium
- 19:52Speaker 5: that set up like a lounge with couches and recliners
- 19:55Speaker 5: for the family to sit in. I think the Broncos
- 19:58Speaker 5: have an area underneath by where the media enters in
- 20:00Speaker 5: this stadium where families can hang out.
- 20:02Speaker 6: Speaking of the Bengals in training camp, have you have
- 20:05Speaker 6: you been to Cincinnati's place before?
- 20:07Speaker 2: Did you? Guys?
- 20:08Speaker 6: Ever, when you're in the same division, you didn't go
- 20:10Speaker 6: there right to I mean for joint practice, Yeah, anything
- 20:14Speaker 6: like that. This is awesome. They're outside of their where
- 20:19Speaker 6: the stadium is. That's where their whole practice is. And
- 20:22Speaker 6: it's literally underneath an overpass, right, same thing. I mean,
- 20:26Speaker 6: as you cross the river on the bridge, you look
- 20:29Speaker 6: down to your right, and they that's where they practice,
- 20:32Speaker 6: sucking in fumes and you know, the traffic and me
- 20:37Speaker 6: and all this crap, and I'm like, really, I mean
- 20:41Speaker 6: there next to the river.
- 20:43Speaker 2: In the overpass, what are.
- 20:44Speaker 5: You doing there? It's there are those elevated highways that
- 20:47Speaker 5: go over their facilities.
- 20:49Speaker 6: We have that.
- 20:51Speaker 5: We have that same thing in Pittsburgh and sometimes people
- 20:53Speaker 5: would pull over on the side of the road and
- 20:56Speaker 5: watch practice.
- 20:57Speaker 6: Hey Brown, you suck driving from.
- 21:00Speaker 5: The highway A. Pittsburgh's move facilities. Since thence they've got
- 21:03Speaker 5: a more modern update. When Bengals are still kicking an old.
- 21:06Speaker 6: School hey crap. I mean when I saw it, I
- 21:09Speaker 6: was like, this can't be real. No, that's that's where
- 21:12Speaker 6: they do their thing.
- 21:14Speaker 2: So I do want to give you a second moge
- 21:16Speaker 2: to talk about the ownership group of the Dodgers, but
- 21:19Speaker 2: I'll intro this with the battle that's happening in LA
- 21:23Speaker 2: for the Lakers right now, which is Jeenie Buss is
- 21:27Speaker 2: the only of the five other siblings to be like,
- 21:31Speaker 2: I do not want to sell our remaining steak in
- 21:33Speaker 2: the Lakers. And I don't know how this works. I've
- 21:37Speaker 2: watched Succession. It's a great show. I don't understand the
- 21:40Speaker 2: business aspect of this, but they had seventeen point eight
- 21:43Speaker 2: percent of Lakers ownership steak that was left. Jeanie Buss
- 21:47Speaker 2: has now hired an attorney to basically go after her
- 21:50Speaker 2: own siblings right to go against the sale of this.
- 21:53Speaker 4: Well, it's always my favorite line.
- 21:57Speaker 6: Yeah, when Pat Bollen had his Succession playing for the Broncos,
- 22:02Speaker 6: I know in his heart of hearts, it was all
- 22:04Speaker 6: drawn up with the very best of intentions. Okay, because
- 22:09Speaker 6: you're trying to find an equitable way to do this thing. Boy,
- 22:12Speaker 6: could I see that coming a mile away?
- 22:15Speaker 2: What? What? What was gonna go down?
- 22:18Speaker 6: I know that doctor Jerry Buss, he wanted Jeanie Buss
- 22:21Speaker 6: to run this. He wanted her to be the one
- 22:24Speaker 6: in charge. And the other siblings are just like, I
- 22:27Speaker 6: don't want to say hangers on or whatever, but he
- 22:29Speaker 6: wanted her. She's been the most involved. She's she's very
- 22:32Speaker 6: smart about things and so on and so forth. And
- 22:36Speaker 6: now she's got herself a legal mess. And I don't
- 22:38Speaker 6: know if you're a If you're the owner of the
- 22:40Speaker 6: team and you pass on and you have this succession
- 22:44Speaker 6: plan in place, I don't know how you make it
- 22:48Speaker 6: un suable, you know what I mean. Somebody's always going
- 22:53Speaker 6: to find a way to sue to try to get
- 22:56Speaker 6: more of what they want. Yeah, so I don't know.
- 22:59Speaker 6: She Dobby.
- 23:00Speaker 2: She does not want to.
- 23:00Speaker 6: Give up the shares and the other sibling, the four
- 23:04Speaker 6: of the siblings do. But she was the one that
- 23:06Speaker 6: he wanted to run the joint.
- 23:07Speaker 2: Well, and I'll be honest, I had no idea she
- 23:09Speaker 2: had five other siblings.
- 23:10Speaker 4: I thought she was just in charge. She is in charge,
- 23:14Speaker 4: and I can understand why she's passed, so can I.
- 23:17Speaker 2: Yeah. It's weird though, because that that ties into the
- 23:20Speaker 2: other Los Angeles sale that's happening, and you know more
- 23:24Speaker 2: about these details than I do, because you read the
- 23:26Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal most.
- 23:27Speaker 6: Yeah, I advise Brett to pick up the Wall Street
- 23:29Speaker 6: Journal pass. Has anybody in this tent ever picked up
- 23:33Speaker 6: the Wall Street Journal? Everybody but you, Brett Todd heard
- 23:38Speaker 6: so what you know?
- 23:39Speaker 4: Why?
- 23:40Speaker 2: You know why? You know why?
- 23:41Speaker 6: Some stupid So this article today is fast if you
- 23:45Speaker 6: want to realize. And again I saw a great tweet
- 23:48Speaker 6: from a from a baseball guy too that all these
- 23:50Speaker 6: baseball sick of fans like you know, Jeff Passing and
- 23:53Speaker 6: all these guys, well, anybody could do what the Dodgers
- 23:55Speaker 6: are doing, they just do it best.
- 23:57Speaker 2: When you read the kind of money move.
- 24:00Speaker 6: That this guy allegedly has been doing, and I'm not
- 24:04Speaker 6: saying there's anything criminal about it at this point, but
- 24:07Speaker 6: the government, the government is up his tailpipe right now,
- 24:11Speaker 6: big time.
- 24:11Speaker 5: On it sounds uncomfortable exactly.
- 24:14Speaker 6: So he had to sell the Lakers because he reportedly
- 24:16Speaker 6: needs twenty billion dollars in cash by December thirty first
- 24:21Speaker 6: for what to pay off. He's taking money from insurance
- 24:25Speaker 6: policies and he's loaned that from that company to these
- 24:29Speaker 6: other companies. But he doesn't have the cash on hand
- 24:32Speaker 6: to pay off these insurance policies, so he's basically moving
- 24:35Speaker 6: stuff around.
- 24:36Speaker 2: All the time.
- 24:37Speaker 4: Sounds like a Ponzi scheme.
- 24:38Speaker 6: Well, so the Feds are like, dude, you're gonna have
- 24:43Speaker 6: to pay these off with with You're not you're not
- 24:47Speaker 6: borrowing again from here to pay these pay you know,
- 24:50Speaker 6: Robert Paul, to pay Peter and all this kind of thing.
- 24:52Speaker 6: So this guy right now needs to come up with
- 24:54Speaker 6: tangible funds immediately. So and the Dodgers are are going
- 24:58Speaker 6: to be a part of this. I don't know if
- 24:59Speaker 6: you guys want.
- 25:00Speaker 2: There was a Netflix documentary on that dude that ran
- 25:02Speaker 2: that firefest that thing. Huh, this sounds like what happened
- 25:06Speaker 2: with that that he had to pay off guys, but
- 25:08Speaker 2: he would take loans from other people to pay off
- 25:10Speaker 2: the people he took a loan from, and then he'd
- 25:12Speaker 2: had to owe that, so then he took another loan
- 25:14Speaker 2: to pay off that person, and then it all blew
- 25:16Speaker 2: up obviously if.
- 25:17Speaker 6: You look at what the Dodgers have done. Look, man,
- 25:21Speaker 6: if you want to put me in charge of a
- 25:23Speaker 6: sports franchise, like a baseball franchise with no cap or
- 25:27Speaker 6: at this point is because it doesn't even really matter
- 25:29Speaker 6: if you learn in LA caps don't matter if you
- 25:32Speaker 6: want to do that with me. If I could just
- 25:35Speaker 6: borrow money from here and just keep shell gaming it
- 25:39Speaker 6: around to different entities, I'll get all the good players too,
- 25:42Speaker 6: and I'll defer a billion dollars worth of contracts, and
- 25:45Speaker 6: I'll win a World series back to back to back
- 25:47Speaker 6: and whatever else. But this article is fascinating because again
- 25:51Speaker 6: there's no alleged wrongdoing yet, but they're in there in him.
- 25:55Speaker 6: But here's he needs to come up with this cash.
- 25:57Speaker 4: Here's the problem.
- 25:58Speaker 2: What if you want to sell the Dodgers, you have
- 26:01Speaker 2: to sell somebody on the idea that you're gonna owe
- 26:04Speaker 2: somebody seven hundred million dollars after they're done playing for
- 26:07Speaker 2: the same if you that's a pretty tough sell.
- 26:09Speaker 6: If well, if you have the money to buy the
- 26:11Speaker 6: if you have the money to buy the La Dodgers.
- 26:14Speaker 6: By the way, there's also a report that he went
- 26:16Speaker 6: to the cable company because the Dodgers have the.
- 26:19Speaker 2: Richest year TV deal.
- 26:22Speaker 6: Yeah, he offered to let this company get out of
- 26:26Speaker 6: the broadcast contract by paying a lump sum to him
- 26:29Speaker 6: right now because he needs money right and they and
- 26:33Speaker 6: that if you guys, won't out pay me right now,
- 26:36Speaker 6: thinking that'd be good, maybe they'll do that, and they're like, no.
- 26:38Speaker 4: We're cool. So he's reverse mortgaging his reverse mortgage.
- 26:41Speaker 2: Bro.
- 26:42Speaker 6: It's it's blowing my mind. And people can't do what
- 26:46Speaker 6: the Dodgers did because they they're not doing this.
- 26:48Speaker 4: And again I'm not saying, what do you know about
- 26:50Speaker 4: a helock homeack?
- 26:52Speaker 2: Wut he line a credit?
- 26:54Speaker 6: I'm all over it, baby, but no, it's uh, it's
- 26:57Speaker 6: it's really fascinating. So no, ever, but he can't do
- 27:00Speaker 6: what the Dodgers are doing because he's doing it in
- 27:03Speaker 6: a way where he doesn't have the really the money
- 27:05Speaker 6: on hand because it's always owed to one of his
- 27:07Speaker 6: other companies.
- 27:08Speaker 5: Does this taint any of the Dodgers' victories for you?
- 27:11Speaker 5: Does this matter to the fans? It feels very very
- 27:13Speaker 5: insider training, like it's in a Wall Street journal, not sports.
- 27:17Speaker 6: Dodgers fans love it because they're winning. I hate the Dodgers.
- 27:20Speaker 6: I think I think it's crap and plus baseball is
- 27:23Speaker 6: broken and I hope we missed the entire year.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Next year, I want to see this guy deck out
- 27:28Speaker 2: the entire Dodger Stadium in solar to try and save
- 27:31Speaker 2: a few bucks.
- 27:32Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
- 27:32Speaker 6: Well, dude, anybody who buys the Dodgers is going to
- 27:36Speaker 6: have the money and will find a revenue stream to
- 27:38Speaker 6: pay show hey, seven hundred mill down the road. But
- 27:41Speaker 6: they've got they've got over a billion dollars worth of
- 27:43Speaker 6: deferred money on the books. So when you buy the
- 27:46Speaker 6: LA Dodgers, if you're paying whatever it is, ten million
- 27:49Speaker 6: dollars for the Dodgers, maybe more, you're an astillion, You're
- 27:52Speaker 6: then you're paying you're paying ten billion, You're paying eleven
- 27:55Speaker 6: billion because that money is going to do.
- 27:57Speaker 4: Jan You made an interesting point.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Has anybody defaulted on a contract before? Like has has
- 28:05Speaker 2: any owner not had the money to pay his player?
- 28:09Speaker 5: I don't think so, not in a major sport. I know,
- 28:13Speaker 5: like some of those spring football leagues have folded, and
- 28:16Speaker 5: coaches and trainers and hotels and all that didn't get paid.
- 28:20Speaker 5: But I don't think the NFL, I don't think baseball,
- 28:22Speaker 5: I don't think the NBA.
- 28:25Speaker 2: I don't think hockey survived.
- 28:26Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, leagues that have survived. But Danissel, the Great
- 28:29Speaker 6: Danissel tells the story when he was playing in the ABA,
- 28:31Speaker 6: was at the Baltimore clause something like that that on
- 28:35Speaker 6: pay day, the players would get their checks and they
- 28:38Speaker 6: would literally race to the bank.
- 28:42Speaker 2: To cash the checks that they would get paid. Okay,
- 28:45Speaker 2: so here I got a couple examples for you. In
- 28:47Speaker 2: twenty ten, the Texas Rangers, the team filed for Chapter
- 28:50Speaker 2: eleven bankruptcy due to owner Tom Hicks massive personal debt
- 28:53Speaker 2: outside the franchise. Large deferred compensation obligations were owed to
- 28:57Speaker 2: players like a rod and they were in the unsecured
- 29:01Speaker 2: creditor process. Though the league and incoming ownership stabilized day
- 29:05Speaker 2: to day operations, so the Rangers had that. In twenty
- 29:09Speaker 2: ten the Pittsburgh.
- 29:10Speaker 5: The league stepped into yes moving.
- 29:12Speaker 2: On the Pittsburgh Penguins in nineteen seventy five and nineteen
- 29:15Speaker 2: ninety eight, franchise famously struggled with cash flow and missed
- 29:19Speaker 2: or delayed payroll obligations to players during ownership crises before
- 29:23Speaker 2: filing for bankruptcy and being rescued by Mario Lemieu and partners.
- 29:27Speaker 6: I do recall that, yeah, and Lemieux came out because
- 29:30Speaker 6: they owed him a lot of money. So this is
- 29:32Speaker 6: he was owed a lot of money. So Lemieux became
- 29:34Speaker 6: essentially the owner, and then when the team was again sold,
- 29:38Speaker 6: he was made whole and then some for sure.
- 29:40Speaker 2: So lower tier in global soccer clubs in European soccer,
- 29:43Speaker 2: such as English lower leagues or regional rugby and hockey clubs,
- 29:47Speaker 2: cash strapped owners frequently default on payroll, leading to administration
- 29:50Speaker 2: point deductions or the club folding entirely. Now, how leagues
- 29:54Speaker 2: prevent that is? It says if an owner goes completely broke,
- 29:59Speaker 2: major leagues like the NFL, NBA, or MLB will use
- 30:01Speaker 2: emergency powers to step in, remove control from the owner
- 30:04Speaker 2: and appoint a receiver to fund payroll in honor contracts
- 30:07Speaker 2: until a forced sale is completed. Which if that's happening,
- 30:10Speaker 2: I guess this is what's going to go down with
- 30:12Speaker 2: the Dodgers right now. Well, I mean, I'm sure there
- 30:14Speaker 2: are a lot of people who would like to own
- 30:15Speaker 2: the Dodgers.
- 30:17Speaker 5: I'm sure does baseball allow private equity like the NFL's allowing.
- 30:21Speaker 2: Them they do?
- 30:21Speaker 6: Okay, what the Dodgers, that's what sort of what they've
- 30:25Speaker 6: been doing with this guy running the show, this Mark
- 30:27Speaker 6: Walter guy. It's just again when you see how the
- 30:32Speaker 6: sausage is made with the La Dodgers. It's it's not
- 30:38Speaker 6: just Hey, this is great sausage. That's great, you know,
- 30:40Speaker 6: it's all Dodgers fans. I love this sausage. But when
- 30:43Speaker 6: everybody now can see the way the sausage was made,
- 30:47Speaker 6: it'll leave a bad taste in your mouth.
- 30:49Speaker 2: Well, and you pointed this out, Why can't anybody do
- 30:52Speaker 2: what the Dodgers are doing? I will say, in the
- 30:55Speaker 2: most recent case, the Scoopball trade was different. Anybody could
- 30:57Speaker 2: have traded for scooball given him a contract on that.
- 31:01Speaker 2: But as far as the entire roster that they've assembled,
- 31:05Speaker 2: that's not just what anybody can do. Turns out, not
- 31:08Speaker 2: even the Dodgers can do that. But pretty I mean
- 31:10Speaker 2: pretty much.
- 31:11Speaker 6: Yeah, And I gotta give them credit because the creative
- 31:14Speaker 6: way they've gone about it in deferring the money and
- 31:17Speaker 6: the way they've assembled that team to win, now, it's
- 31:21Speaker 6: it's pretty creative. But it was not done in a
- 31:25Speaker 6: way from what I'm reading that is sustainable number one,
- 31:29Speaker 6: and number two maybe not ethical.
- 31:32Speaker 4: Well, you wonder, like for all the third team, if the.
- 31:35Speaker 6: Feds are up your backside, bro, they don't just go
- 31:38Speaker 6: wander and around looking at people's backside for fun.
- 31:41Speaker 2: They are serious about this. Well, how many times have
- 31:43Speaker 2: we seen this over the last couple of years, Like
- 31:45Speaker 2: the Boston Celtics win a championship and then they sell.
- 31:48Speaker 2: It's like, well we have to pay all these guys
- 31:51Speaker 2: now because we want a championship. All right, off in
- 31:54Speaker 2: the sunset, you guys can deal with the payroll down
- 31:56Speaker 2: the road. Like it's just it's it's a very odd thing.
- 32:00Speaker 2: Right here at Broncos Park, another day of Broncos training camp,
- 32:03Speaker 2: the last day for us here for training camp twenty
- 32:07Speaker 2: twenty six.
- 32:07Speaker 4: Get her some final thoughts here when we come back.
- 32:10Speaker 2: I'll see all right one final time this year out
- 32:13Speaker 2: here Broncos Park for Broncos Training Camp. All training Camp
- 32:17Speaker 2: coverage is brought to you by Rama's Law And just
- 32:19Speaker 2: a reminder to everybody out there, football Chad, you know
- 32:22Speaker 2: this better than anybody.
- 32:24Speaker 4: Football hurts. It hurts.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Uh. I was sent a picture this morning from Mike
- 32:31Speaker 2: Sanford and it's the same photo that you see from
- 32:34Speaker 2: a lot of other people this time of year. My
- 32:37Speaker 2: daughter just had it this morning going to school, taking
- 32:41Speaker 2: the first day of school picture on the front porch. Whatever, right, Well,
- 32:46Speaker 2: Mike Sanford's son had his It was his first practice,
- 32:51Speaker 2: first game, and on the second play.
- 32:57Speaker 4: Busted both rists.
- 32:59Speaker 5: Yeah, oh oh my god.
- 33:02Speaker 2: Second, poor kid, Mike Sanford son is now in two
- 33:07Speaker 2: casts on both arms.
- 33:10Speaker 5: Who's wiping him, who's feeding him?
- 33:15Speaker 2: Here's my grapes on the table, and he just picks
- 33:17Speaker 2: him up with hungry, hungry hip hop.
- 33:20Speaker 6: If I was I'd be doing this, I'd be like,
- 33:22Speaker 6: I got which one do you want?
- 33:24Speaker 2: You want? Tanya Tucker Conway Twitter either, I mean, unbelievable
- 33:33Speaker 2: first year of tackle football? Right, second play, first year
- 33:38Speaker 2: of tackle football. Both wrists, both risks that happen.
- 33:41Speaker 5: I remember Mike Quick from the Eagles tore both buttell
- 33:46Speaker 5: attendons on that turf in the old stadium in Philadelphia,
- 33:52Speaker 5: but both wrist. I'm curious about the did you put
- 33:56Speaker 5: both hands down?
- 33:57Speaker 4: What you had to be like falling, trying to brace yourself.
- 34:00Speaker 5: Somebody on top of them, Yeah, something like that.
- 34:04Speaker 6: Wow, that turf, that turf at the old Veteran Stadium
- 34:09Speaker 6: was It's like the old turf the Astronaut. It was
- 34:12Speaker 6: the junkiest, crappiest turf of all time.
- 34:16Speaker 5: Michael's career.
- 34:17Speaker 6: Yeah, people, that turfing I'm sure amputated people and ended
- 34:22Speaker 6: a lot of cruise was awful.
- 34:24Speaker 4: Well, boys, this is our last day out here.
- 34:26Speaker 2: Uh and Chad, thanks for sitting in with us for
- 34:28Speaker 2: the last three days very much.
- 34:29Speaker 6: The reason I'm I'm not I'm not super sad because
- 34:33Speaker 6: you know we're missing things. But we've been out here plenty.
- 34:36Speaker 6: I'm really happy that I don't.
- 34:38Speaker 5: Have to anymore.
- 34:40Speaker 4: We listen, Listen, we've been out here for a few weeks.
- 34:43Speaker 2: Now. What's the biggest takeaway you've had from camp this
- 34:47Speaker 2: year with the Broncos. Start with you, Chad.
- 34:49Speaker 5: I think we saw in that first preseason game Davis
- 34:52Speaker 5: Webb replacing Sean Payton as the play caller. It seemingly,
- 34:56Speaker 5: at least upon first reports, gives us offense more rhythm,
- 35:00Speaker 5: more run pass balance, takes the best parts of Sean
- 35:04Speaker 5: Payton's offense, and then brings a guy who was just
- 35:08Speaker 5: under center not too long, brings that touch to it.
- 35:11Speaker 5: What does a quarterback want? Give me the play in
- 35:14Speaker 5: enough time where I'm not doing the hand motion of
- 35:16Speaker 5: hurry up in the huddle. Give me time at the
- 35:18Speaker 5: line of scrimmage. Give me some run pass balance so
- 35:22Speaker 5: I can take a playoff, because if you ask me
- 35:24Speaker 5: to throw the ball forty times, then I can't take
- 35:26Speaker 5: a playoff. But to turn around and hand the ball off,
- 35:29Speaker 5: I get to breathe mentally for it and get to
- 35:31Speaker 5: reset my mind a bit. So I think that's probably
- 35:35Speaker 5: the biggest takeaway that I can take from training camp,
- 35:38Speaker 5: other than you know, being here and watching coaching tape.
- 35:41Speaker 5: But based on a couple of days I've been, based
- 35:44Speaker 5: on the preseason game, that seems to be the biggest
- 35:46Speaker 5: major move.
- 35:47Speaker 2: There is a serious nature about this camp. There's no
- 35:52Speaker 2: tickle fight, you know, grab butt going on, that kind
- 35:55Speaker 2: of thing.
- 35:56Speaker 6: These guys are putting.
- 35:57Speaker 5: You know, lots of backsides.
- 35:58Speaker 2: Yeah, you're now right now, there is there's not a
- 36:02Speaker 2: lot of that going on.
- 36:03Speaker 6: This is I mean, they're putting in the work and
- 36:04Speaker 6: they're I think this camp has been very efficient.
- 36:08Speaker 2: That's what I've noticed.
- 36:09Speaker 6: There's a just a level of professionalism that a team
- 36:13Speaker 6: that went to the AFC title Game last year has
- 36:18Speaker 6: about what their mission this season is and what they
- 36:21Speaker 6: think they can accomplish. So I think that that has
- 36:23Speaker 6: permeated through all of these practices every single day, and hell,
- 36:27Speaker 6: we saw it against Atlanta last Friday, one team looked
- 36:32Speaker 6: serious about getting in football shape and getting football ready,
- 36:35Speaker 6: and one team looked like they were like they like
- 36:38Speaker 6: they just got off the plane from Cancun, knew what
- 36:40Speaker 6: the hell was going on. And the Broncos took advantage
- 36:43Speaker 6: of that, and they should have because in those the
- 36:44Speaker 6: early stages of that game, the Broncos dominated the Falcons.
- 36:49Speaker 2: I think if if you're looking for something that you
- 36:54Speaker 2: want to see the Broncos improve on from last year,
- 36:58Speaker 2: because let's be honest, you make the AFC title game,
- 37:02Speaker 2: you're the number one seed in the AFC, number one
- 37:04Speaker 2: seed in the NFL, you win fourteen games, there ain't
- 37:07Speaker 2: a lot to complain on. But I will say I'll
- 37:10Speaker 2: Echoa Chad said that I think that the rhythm and
- 37:14Speaker 2: tempo of the offense this year seems to be different
- 37:17Speaker 2: and something.
- 37:18Speaker 4: That is more conducive to calm.
- 37:23Speaker 2: We'll say within the offense, I think finding depth in
- 37:26Speaker 2: the places that you needed to find them. One spot
- 37:29Speaker 2: that I think is maybe lacking his tight end. I
- 37:31Speaker 2: haven't seen a lot of that through camp, and hopefully
- 37:34Speaker 2: that shows its face here in the next couple of
- 37:35Speaker 2: weeks and into the regular season. But getting depth at
- 37:38Speaker 2: the linebacker spot. I think Red Murdoch and how he's
- 37:41Speaker 2: performed in this it's been really good.
- 37:43Speaker 4: Your boy at.
- 37:46Speaker 2: York is another one that I think can provide some
- 37:48Speaker 2: of that. And I'm super encouraged because I think to
- 37:51Speaker 2: me it was a priority of the offseason. It didn't
- 37:55Speaker 2: happen in free agency, and so you're crossing your fingers
- 37:57Speaker 2: and hoping that a backup running Mac that you can
- 38:01Speaker 2: believe in if Slash win JK. Dobbins goes down emerges.
- 38:05Speaker 2: I love to see what Jonah Coleman's put together here.
- 38:10Speaker 2: And if you guys missed it, this is Davis Webb
- 38:12Speaker 2: yesterday on Jonah Coleman went out, had only four carries
- 38:16Speaker 2: in that first preseason game and then went to the
- 38:18Speaker 2: bench for the rest of the game.
- 38:19Speaker 4: Why well, here's what Davis web said.
- 38:23Speaker 2: So this quote, all.
- 38:25Speaker 7: Right, put you back after that one run. We all
- 38:27Speaker 7: said on the headset, we're good. He did what we
- 38:31Speaker 7: needed to do. And he's been great the last three weeks.
- 38:33Speaker 7: Just like Sean said, he's been consistent and we've been
- 38:36Speaker 7: throwing a lot of installs at him and he's been great.
- 38:38Speaker 7: He's been handling that and yeah, We're satisfied with that
- 38:40Speaker 7: Tyre rootbout that they all ran really good the other
- 38:42Speaker 7: day because he aligne did a good job.
- 38:44Speaker 2: There is something to the idea to me of if
- 38:48Speaker 2: you lose JK. Dobbins, who's a very effective runner, you
- 38:51Speaker 2: need to have confidence in people behind them.
- 38:53Speaker 4: And so far throughout camp.
- 38:54Speaker 2: In the first preseason game, Jonah Coleman is shown to
- 38:57Speaker 2: be one of those guys.
- 38:58Speaker 6: Hey, man, uh, I'm into Red Murdoch. I'm a big
- 39:03Speaker 6: murder guy. Number one, he's got a great name.
- 39:06Speaker 5: True.
- 39:07Speaker 2: Number two, he's got great hair. True easy to spot.
- 39:11Speaker 2: Fifty with the hair. Easy to spot.
- 39:13Speaker 4: This guy's at fifty with the good hair.
- 39:15Speaker 6: This guy's also he's probably one of the smartest ever
- 39:19Speaker 6: Broncos in the history of the franchise. This guy was
- 39:22Speaker 6: just reading all about him. He was mister relevant right.
- 39:25Speaker 2: He achieved perfect score in the Standards of Learning through
- 39:27Speaker 2: English exam in Virginia. He's a four Union Military Academy guy.
- 39:33Speaker 2: This guy graduated.
- 39:35Speaker 6: This guy was in college when he was in high
- 39:37Speaker 6: school at sixteen. He graduated at sixteen and started college.
- 39:43Speaker 6: And this guy is smart as hell. Man, If he's
- 39:46Speaker 6: half as smart on the football field as he is
- 39:49Speaker 6: in real life. He's gonna make this damn team.
- 39:52Speaker 2: I am twenty twenty four. He earned a Bachelor of
- 39:54Speaker 2: Arts in psychology. This guy's incredible.
- 39:57Speaker 5: This guy, I think he's already smart from a football perspective,
- 40:01Speaker 5: because what's the most important thing on the field the ball?
- 40:04Speaker 5: What did he set an NCAA record at forcing fumbles
- 40:07Speaker 5: seventeen to fourth fumbles at Buffalo, So sacks are important,
- 40:12Speaker 5: tackles are important. Ball production is the most important thing
- 40:17Speaker 5: you can do as a defender, either forcing fumbles or
- 40:19Speaker 5: taking the ball away. So we got Red Murdoch forced
- 40:22Speaker 5: to fumble last week in practice, had got this great
- 40:25Speaker 5: record in college. We saw two interceptions in the first
- 40:28Speaker 5: preseason game. So the Broncos defense had a ton of
- 40:31Speaker 5: sacks but did not have great turnover numbers last year.
- 40:34Speaker 5: So if Red Murdoch can they make that whole linebacker
- 40:37Speaker 5: room a more ball hungry, have higher levels of ball production.
- 40:42Speaker 5: The dbs can catch the ball like they did on
- 40:44Speaker 5: Friday night. This defense, which was great last year, can
- 40:48Speaker 5: be even better because if you take the ball away
- 40:51Speaker 5: versus a sack, we're really taking away forty yards of
- 40:54Speaker 5: field position. Because if you sack them on third down,
- 40:57Speaker 5: they still get to punt and they're gonna kick the
- 40:58Speaker 5: ball forty yards down. If you intercepted, you eliminate that
- 41:02Speaker 5: forty yard field exchange. You get your offense better position
- 41:06Speaker 5: the score.
- 41:07Speaker 6: Drew Sanders has also missed the last couple of days.
- 41:09Speaker 6: He's been held out. I don't know what is going
- 41:11Speaker 6: on there, even though we did play last Friday. So
- 41:13Speaker 6: hopefully he's fine. This is just a precaution everything. But
- 41:18Speaker 6: I just I like this kid. I want I want
- 41:21Speaker 6: Red to make this team.
- 41:22Speaker 2: Man. I like that guy.
- 41:23Speaker 4: In the meantime, having a fact checker, Nelly.
- 41:27Speaker 1: Nelly monitors the mistakes in today's fact Checker. Fact Checker
- 41:33Speaker 1: presented by macchus and Shanker, serious lawyers for this seriously
- 41:37Speaker 1: injured Chad.
- 41:39Speaker 8: You're an American, so you can plead the fifth if
- 41:42Speaker 8: you'd like to. But multiple times during today's show, we've
- 41:44Speaker 8: been talking about the scuffle between Bo Nicks and Nick Benito,
- 41:48Speaker 8: and you said that in your playing days, you saw
- 41:50Speaker 8: your teammates fight butt naked, soaking in water in the shower,
- 41:56Speaker 8: and what could have possibly possessed your teammates. What was
- 41:59Speaker 8: so important that you you couldn't wait till your shower
- 42:02Speaker 8: was over to start throwing bows.
- 42:05Speaker 5: The fight on the field spilled into the locker room,
- 42:08Speaker 5: and then it gets separated its shower time, and then
- 42:12Speaker 5: the two adversarial guys coming to the shower together, and
- 42:15Speaker 5: suddenly it's two naked men fighting in the shower well
- 42:19Speaker 5: on a soapy, slippery floor. And I'm like a team
- 42:23Speaker 5: captain trying to figure out how how do I get
- 42:26Speaker 5: in there? I mean, you see these referees with hockey
- 42:29Speaker 5: fights trying to figure out how to get in there.
- 42:31Speaker 5: How do you get in there with two naked men
- 42:33Speaker 5: pustling in a shower? Where do you grab? What's your process?
- 42:38Speaker 6: What I'd do, I'd have I'd have another teammate, Right,
- 42:41Speaker 6: you grab one foot on the guy and you grab
- 42:43Speaker 6: the other foot on the guy and just slide him
- 42:45Speaker 6: across the floor that way apart from each other.
- 42:48Speaker 2: Uh, don't, don't get them.
- 42:50Speaker 4: Try the showers to cold.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Just start. You're not getting in the middle of that thing.
- 42:54Speaker 5: Like put a but your your hot hose on a
- 42:57Speaker 5: two dogs that are stuck together in the front yard.
- 43:01Speaker 4: Whatever it takes, well, seems like you got it done.
- 43:04Speaker 5: So they were they had beef all season long. It
- 43:07Speaker 5: just didn't happen in the shower again. Thank you. Let's
- 43:10Speaker 5: keep the shower for showering purposes only.
- 43:13Speaker 4: Big thanks to Chad Brown to join us the last
- 43:15Speaker 4: three days. Thank you, Chad. Appreciate the time.
