  Speaker 3: It's always a part of me.

  Speaker 4: This just now breaking in the NFL.

  Speaker 5: Altitude Sports Radio 92.5 presents America's number one sports reporter,

  Speaker 5: Adam Schefter.
• 0:31
  Speaker 6: Shout out to the Ramos Law Hotline, Car Accident, You
• 0:33
  Speaker 6: Need Ramos Law, Medical Doctor and Attorney, RamosLaw.com. We are
• 0:37
  Speaker 6: joined as we are every Tuesday by Adam Schefter of ESPN.
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: Adam, how are you doing this morning?
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Morning, guys. What's going on?
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: We'll start here. We were trying to figure this out.
• 0:45
  Speaker 6: You talk to smart people on a daily basis about
• 0:47
  Speaker 6: the Broncos offense and maybe the lack of oomph from
• 0:52
  Speaker 6: Bo Nix. Have you heard anything about maybe theories as
• 0:55
  Speaker 6: to why the Broncos offense has started the season so slowly?
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: It's been strange. They've been slow out of the gate,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: and they seem to get better as the games have gone,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: generally speaking, but the slow starts are odd. I don't
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: know what it is. Certain teams, certain coaches do well
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: with that. Other coaches, other teams, not as well, and
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: it has not been a good start for them so far.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Adam, I saw the Seahawks working with Joe Mixon to
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: get him in. Were the Broncos ever interested in another
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: running back? Were they ever in the mix in talks?
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Were they in the mix?
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: No, I never heard them connected to Joe Mixon. And
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: in fact, I just have heard a lack of interest.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: So I was surprised to see him surface over the
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: weekend and Seattle signed him to the practice squad once
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: he went through the physical yesterday.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: You know, Adam, when we watch like Bijon last night,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: you start to salivate, right? Oh, I wish we had
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: something like that. But I don't think that the Broncos
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: need something like that.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Overall, is the.
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: Belkow running back, is that starting to make a comeback
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: in the National Football League, or are these guys just
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: really special so they get all the attention and we
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: notice them?
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know that they're making a comeback. When you
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: have a guy like Jameer Gibbs or B. John Robinson,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: you know that these guys are incredible. It's been a
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: situation where when you've got that, you can't spend your
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: money on everything also. It's hard. I think that Detroit
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: is struggling some elsewhere. on the roster because they paid
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: the running back. They paid the quarterback. You can't do everything.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Look at their defense. It's terrible. Now, the Falcons are
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: not paying a quarterback. Well, they paid Kirk Cousins. Still
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: haven't paid Penix. You could afford to pay Bajon, but
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: you have to pay him. You have to pay him.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: And by the way, you say they're making a comeback. Yes,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: they are. But in terms of salary, they're still not
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: being paid, in my mind, what their value is. Like,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: we're seeing Jackson, Smith, and Jake make $ 40- plus million dollars.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: But John Robinson, who catches and runs, makes 22. So
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the running backs still in my mind are still underpaid
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: compared to wide receivers.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Adam Schefter with us as he is every Tuesday.
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: All conversations with Adam are brought to you by Johnson
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: Auto Plaza with a huge selection of Chevy, Buick, GMC, Ram,
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: and Jeep all in one place. Experience the power of
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: the plaza at Johnson Auto Plaza. Have you heard any
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: updates on the injured Broncos, Pat Sertan, Riley Moss, Pat Bryant?
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Well, I just don't expect anything to play this week.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: And I think the bigger question will be which of
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: those players players wind up on injured reserve. And my
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: guess would be that we'll see certainly Sertan there, quite
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: possibly Bryant, depending on when they can get back. I
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: would guess not on Riley Moss. That'd be my guess
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: How do the rules of injured reserve work again?
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: You are out four weeks, four games minimum, and then
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: you can be activated after that point in time. But
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: each team, I forget whether it's seven or eight, you
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: can bring back seven or eight players over the course
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: of the year. So a team like the 49ers.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Didn't put Nick Bosa on there because they're running short
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of IR spaces of players to bring back already, and
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: it's early in the year. You want to make sure
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you spread it out and save some.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Wow, that's a lot of games for those players.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Those are key players.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: That's unreal.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: So what you're saying is if you've got a guy
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: who's kind of iffy, you've got to keep him on
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: the active roster, but it may be three weeks, something
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: like that, because you don't want to have to IR
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: him for a full four. But then that's a roster
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: spot that you could use.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: That's tough.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: That's really tough.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Every team juggles this. And if you haven't had a
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: lot of injuries, you know, and there's a question you
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: can afford to do it. But if you think the
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: guy's going to be like Baker Mayfield, Todd Bowles said
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: at least three weeks, at least three weeks. They didn't
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: put him on IR. I was told the injury is
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: a three to six week injury. So it might be
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: three weeks later. It might be four. It might be five.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: They're rolling the dice that it'll be sooner rather than later,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: which is why they didn't put him on IR. It's
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: a quarterback. They're hoping they get him back as soon
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: as possible, but there's no guarantees that that happens.
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: Talking to the people that you talk to, and I
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: see these 0-4 teams, and it's surprising, but it's for
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: a number of different reasons. Is there any one team
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: that people look at and say, talking about these 0-4s,
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: maybe they could get on a little bit of a run,
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: come back. I mean, look, Tampa's 0-4, but they're only
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: two games out in their own dang division.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't see it. You know, that doesn't mean
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: they can't. But when you, you know, I remember the year,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: I think it was 1999, the first year after John
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Elway retired, the Broncos started on four. And they might
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: have made a little bit of a run to try
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: to get back into the race. But you fall so
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: far behind the eight ball, it just feels like you're
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: playing catch up. It takes a lot out of you physically, mentally. Sure,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: these teams can come back and some of them will
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: make runs. Absolutely. Absolutely. But to go from 0-4 to
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, good luck with that. It can be done,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: but it's going to be very difficult and challenging to do.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: My money's on the Dolphins.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Adam, what's the market you got for Tyreek Hill
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: right now?
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Well, his agent said he's talking to multiple teams. And
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I don't have any reason to doubt Drew Rosenhaus, but
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: what I would say is the Chiefs are so logical
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: in so many ways that, I mean, I don't know
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: how that doesn't happen in my mind. He's played there,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: knows there. They know him. They're playing as well as
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: any team in football. They can use him. They lost
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Tyquan Thornton. They lost Rasheed Rice. They had a need anyway.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: He knows Mahomes. He knows Kelsey. He knows Andy Reid. Like,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not telling you it's happening there, but I'd be
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: surprised if it didn't happen there.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: I've got a two-part question here.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: And the first one is with the players and this–
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: so-called taunting rule where these players are getting fined. Quinn
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Miners was fined a couple of weeks ago for miming
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: a dice roll.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: He got fined.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: $ 14, 000. Have they jumped the shark on these fines? I mean,
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: what does the players union do? What, how do you
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: appeal something like that if you're not fond of the fine?
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Well, you, you appeal it, that's it. And you have
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: your argument and your say with the NFL. So, um,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Every player has the right to do that. You could
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: argue against these fines in the next round of talks. But, Vic,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: there are fines that have come up for years. Every
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: year there's some fines. What is this? What is this?
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Kyle Juszczyk, $ 14, 926 for drinking juice, his nickname, which the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: league in turn is chugging a beer. So there are
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: fines like this every year. They go on.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Is there somebody at headquarters watching this and assessing these fines,
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: or is that somebody on site?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Who is actually determining this?
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I think a couple of things. I think they do
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: have an NFL official on set for every game. And
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: then the league is always watching all these things. They
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: see things on TV and replays, and so they're marking
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: it down, taking notes.
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: Well, on the other side of that, two referees got suspended.
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: It's just odd that that happened in the same week.
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: How often does that stuff go down?
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen stuff like that. Like, I mean, that
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: was unusual. You know, where you're talking about confrontations on
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: the field with players. You don't see that. Like, do
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: you see an official get up and kind of go
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: back at the Vikings linebacker? Yeah, that's weird. I didn't
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: see that. That was unusual. And I hadn't seen an
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: official capture on camera using profanity at a player. You know,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: that's the day in Israel we're living in. And by
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: the way, like, and I said this in my podcast
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: this morning, we just recorded it, but I'm like, in
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: any workplace environment, if I use that language at somebody
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: in that kind of tone, that's unprofessional.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: Well, most are unprofessional to me every morning.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: We do it every morning.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: On this show. Well, you know, listen, altitude's got to
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: take action against this.
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: Hey, Adam, the last non-quarterback to win The MVP was
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Adrian Peterson. Before that, LaDainian Tomlinson, Sean Alexander, these guys won.
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: Are we going to get back to a time when
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: we do have a non-quarterback be the most valuable player?
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: Because you've got some backs right now. I mean, Kenneth
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: Walker III, for crying out loud, is running all over
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: the place, too.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Listen, I know it's become a quarterback award, but we're
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: seeing some incredible backs. And you can't tell me right now,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: it's only four weeks, that anybody's been any more valuable
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: than Kenneth Walker. you know, through four weeks. If we're
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: going to give out an MVP of four weeks, then
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker wins it for four weeks. But it's not
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: four weeks. It's 17 weeks, 18 weeks. So, you know,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: we're a quarter of the way through, and these things
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: change all the time. There's a lot of race left
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: to go. But early on, Kenneth Walker has been great.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Have you conducted your fantasy basketball draft yet?
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: I watched you yesterday, yeah.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, did you take Joker number one?
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: The draft is next week. It was supposed to be Wednesday.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: We might be moving up to Tuesday. or Thursday. So
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I'm still waiting. It will be next week. When we
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: do the segment next week, next Tuesday, the draft still
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: will not have been done. But I feel pretty good.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Like you guys, honestly, you guys helped sell me on
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: the Joker. Like Dick, like he's in great shape, right?
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Like great shape, lost weight. motivated, all that. No questions, right?
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Am I having to sell Nikola Jokic? Is this what
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: we're doing right now? I got to sell this.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Man to you? Looking for reinforcement. That's it.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: See, the problem is you're also with your heart. You
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: had your heart set on Wemby. If you have your
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: heart set on a guy, it's hard to talk that
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: person off of that guy. I understand the internal struggle
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: you're going with here, but I saw you yesterday talking
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: to the fellas and you saw the pass. I mean,
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: that's just a microcosm of what this guy is really
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: all about on a nightly basis.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: He's one of the greatest players in NBA history. I
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: know that. Again, none of that is in dispute. The
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: question is, How is he going to be this year
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: at age 31? Are there any questions or are there
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: any issues? Are there any uncertainties that I have to
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: consider as I mull that decision for the number one
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: overall pick? That's it.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: Adam Schefter, all conversations with Adam are brought to you
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: by Matthews Fine Watches and Jewelry in the Highlands Ranch
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: Town Center and online at matthewsfinewatches.com. So, Adam, just a
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: couple more things before we let you go. Number one,
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: in looking at these quarterbacks around the league, the issues
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: with the Chargers offense, How much of that is Justin
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: Herbert just not playing well, and how much of that
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: is just everything else coming together?
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: New offense, battle line play, what is it?
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit of everything. I think
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: it's a new offense that's not functioning in an efficient way,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: that looks clunky, where he doesn't look comfortable, where he's
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: not playing well, where they're not calling. It's everything. It
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: just kind of feeds off one another. And they haven't
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: developed any momentum or confidence. They're losing. It hasn't looked great.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: He continually has more interceptions and touchdowns, which is not
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the way you want to be. So it's just not
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: an ideal scenario for them. Where's the game Sunday in Denver? No,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: it's in L.A.
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: In L.A., yeah.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Interesting. Well, Denver needs to go find a way to
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: win that game. Absolutely.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: 100%.
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: Adam Schefter joined us every single Tuesday. Adam, always appreciate
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: the time.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Thank you, buddy.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Thank you guys. Have a great week. You bet.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: Adam Schefter, ESPN.
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: By the way, I made such a dumb, bold prediction
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: last week.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Which was?
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: You know what? The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: win that division. They're going to win the division.
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: What an idiot.
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: Did I hear Adam Schefter tell us that he thinks
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: that Sertan and Pat Bryan are going on IR?
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and the prospect, that's four weeks, guys. That's four
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: weeks minimum and probably more than that. That's a big.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Big hurt right there. That's a big hurt.
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: Why does it sound like you were in an MRI machine?
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Because there's some activity going on outside the house here.
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: But I was under the impression Sertan's week-to-week thing meant
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: like a couple of games, not a full month and
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: then maybe more.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: What did you expect?
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: A miracle? He could barely get off the field. He
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: had to be helped off the field. Pat Bryant had
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: to be carted off the field. If you see a
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: guy get carted off the field, that's not week-to-week. That's
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: a month minimum. You're right.
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: I think I just got encouraged by the initial reports. Like, guys,
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: it's not that bad.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, good.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: Thank God.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: It's still bad.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: Not that bad and still being bad are still two
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: things here.
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: Now, the bigger question is, if he's going to miss
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: a month, and Nelly, if you could, just grab that
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: and we'll use that for later and send it to
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: the other shows because I'm sure they want it. If
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: Sertan's not there for over a month, which... according to Schefter,
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: is likely the case. How do teams now attack the
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: Broncos' defense? You had this sort of Darrell Rivas thing
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: where wherever side he was on, that was a no-go,
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: and it makes it a lot easier for you to
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: conduct different things schematically for Vance Joseph and all these
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: different deals.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Schematically.
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: If he's not there, now that creates a pretty gigantic
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: pressure on different aspects of the defense that didn't have
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: it before. Like, here's a big one, Moj. You need
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: to get some sacks again. The secondaries played great. You
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: haven't gotten sack totals through four games. Nick Benito, your all-pro,
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: has a single sack through a month of the season.
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: There's now more pressure on them To create havoc in
• 14:42
  Speaker 6: the backfield.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, all of a sudden, when we started
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: talking about this, I felt pretty good. Vic, all of
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: a sudden, I got my tummy, my tummy feels a
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: little rumbly. We're talking about, they're not going on IR,
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: are they? I mean, just give me two weeks.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: He just said he expects him to go on IR.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: And the thing, you know, you just mentioned, we neglected
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: to ask Adam about this. We keep talking about Jonathan Cooper.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Where does that stand? When is that going to happen?
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: I have absolutely no idea.
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: He told us earlier that he goes, the NFL doesn't care.
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: They're on the exempt list until things get figured out. Now,
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: isn't Cooper's trial next week?
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: Isn't that it? I thought that's what it was. Wasn't
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: it in October at some point or something like that?
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I thought it was November. I thought it was early November.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: That's why I went at first. It's November.
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: Oh, boy, yeah.
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: It's the 10th, November 10th. So there's a pretrial hearing,
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: I guess, October 30th. But it doesn't seem like they're
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: in a hurry to get anything done. And I think
• 15:49
  Speaker 6: Jonathan Cooper, you know, being out of that defensive line
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: has certainly hindered their.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: Ability to get some things done. I mean, he's hurt them.
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: You're missing a lot of sacks from Jonathan Cooper and
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: JFM from last year.
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: Did I not say it all offseason? What is the
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: absence of JFM going to do to affect that line?
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: And then you throw Cooper in the mix, too, and... Oh, man.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: You've got to be able to get to Herbert. He's
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: been hassled all season long so far.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: I want you guys to think about something.
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: It might not matter as much this week, but if
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: Pat Sertan is gone for a month, you have, on
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: a short week, Jackson Smith and Jigba coming in here
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: with possibly no Riley Moss and no Pat Sertan.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: Jackson Smith, Nagujuba.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: That changes a lot of how you feel about that game.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: And you only have four days to prepare.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: So, again, according to Schefter, in fact, Nelly, if you
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: want to play it on the way to break, go ahead.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Here's what he said.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: I just don't expect anything to play this week, and
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I think the bigger question will be which of those
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: players wind up on injured reserve. And my guess would
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: be that we'll see certainly Sertan there, quite possibly Bryant,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: depending on when they can get back. I would guess
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: not on Riley Moss. That'd be my guess right now.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: How do the rules of injured reserve work again?
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: You are out four weeks, four games minimum, and then
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: you can be activated after that point in time.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: It's a month. How does the phone work again?
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: What's a carburetor? You didn't like my question?
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: No, it was fine. What I don't like is I
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: don't like the jackhammer going on outside your window. Whatever
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: they're doing, what are they doing?
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you someday.
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: What?
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: What some big golden secret.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: City of gold that needs protecting. Jeez Louise.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: There's nothing but black SUVs outside of his house.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: Guys talking into their wrists and crap.
