- 3:00Speaker 5: I've gotten to like every year a little a little
- 3:02Speaker 5: bit more stuff. But then with kids, it's like, man,
- 3:04Speaker 5: what are they gonna like, are they gonna want some
- 3:06Speaker 5: of the stuff?
- 3:07Speaker 3: Yeah, probably not, probably not. They're gonna put it in their.
- 3:10Speaker 5: Attic and like look at it, like me, like once
- 3:13Speaker 5: every ten years.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Grandpa used to be okay at football. Yeah, here's his
- 3:19Speaker 3: crusty shorts from forty years.
- 3:24Speaker 4: Here's a shirt and that said chain game because they
- 3:26Speaker 4: used to sign a chain after every performance.
- 3:28Speaker 3: They signed a chain for some reason. I don't even
- 3:29Speaker 3: know what that means. Oh god, it meant something back then, though,
- 3:33Speaker 3: damn right it did. It absolutely did. Elandra, how we.
- 3:36Speaker 6: Feeling feeling great? That game last night was really funny?
- 3:41Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. You know who's not one to know
- 3:43Speaker 3: Bill Belichick tough.
- 3:45Speaker 4: Look, never gave up forty eight points coaching the Patriots
- 3:49Speaker 4: first college game.
- 3:50Speaker 3: Forty eight points.
- 3:51Speaker 7: It's gonna give so much credence to the people that
- 3:54Speaker 7: like criticize him for his relationship.
- 3:56Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh, he's gonna have a rough week. Yeah not Archman.
- 4:00Speaker 4: And again, like I hate that she's gonna have to
- 4:03Speaker 4: always he's going to be pretty bad.
- 4:05Speaker 5: It's just a weird look, like watching Belichick in the
- 4:09Speaker 5: college game having to kind of pander a little bit,
- 4:11Speaker 5: like because he's recruiting. So I saw the the pregame
- 4:16Speaker 5: interview with him, like right before the game. I think
- 4:17Speaker 5: it was Holly Road doesn't give him interview, and it
- 4:19Speaker 5: was like, you can tell, like he's having to force
- 4:23Speaker 5: like a smile because he used to be such a
- 4:25Speaker 5: prick to the media, like famously didn't say anything to
- 4:28Speaker 5: the media if they asked him a dumb question. Well,
- 4:32Speaker 5: she asked him like the third like the last question
- 4:34Speaker 5: was like, so how about the short sleeve hoodie? Are
- 4:37Speaker 5: you something like you excited to wear that? And he
- 4:41Speaker 5: looked at it like you could tell he was like, well,
- 4:44Speaker 5: that's a dumb question, and like I got I want
- 4:46Speaker 5: to give her something here, and he just like smiled.
- 4:48Speaker 3: He's like, well, it's kind of my thing.
- 4:51Speaker 7: I was like, if you're Bill Belichick though, like I
- 4:55Speaker 7: feel like it's kind of like you you see is
- 4:57Speaker 7: what you get with Bill, Like everybody he knows who
- 5:00Speaker 7: he is already, So do you really have to pander?
- 5:03Speaker 7: Like I feel like, if you're a college kid, you
- 5:05Speaker 7: know who Bill Belichick is, and you know what.
- 5:07Speaker 3: You're getting school kid, like, yeah, really, I.
- 5:10Speaker 8: Guess so I guess he is. But these five stars
- 5:14Speaker 8: have had their ass kiss from the top football. You
- 5:18Speaker 8: don't kiss their ass. They ain't coming to you. That's
- 5:20Speaker 8: just how I look at it.
- 5:22Speaker 5: So I you know, I spent three weeks with the Patriots,
- 5:25Speaker 5: and so I remember like one very vivid memory that
- 5:29Speaker 5: I have of I didn't want to get the coach
- 5:34Speaker 5: at her. Yeah, next man, that was not the thing
- 5:37Speaker 5: I wanted to do. So one really vivid memory I
- 5:42Speaker 5: have was sitting in a team meeting and Belichick walks
- 5:46Speaker 5: in there and he was like really funny, really like
- 5:47Speaker 5: he was dry, but like dry funny, Like I didn't
- 5:50Speaker 5: know what to expect personality wise. Anyway, I enjoyed, like
- 5:53Speaker 5: the team means just kind of here is like banter.
- 5:55Speaker 5: But he walks in and we had just started training
- 5:59Speaker 5: camp and we had just done like a conditioning test,
- 6:02Speaker 5: and it was like a media thing and so he's like,
- 6:05Speaker 5: all right, okay, so we're going to give away media
- 6:09Speaker 5: awards today. This is he gave. He gave away a
- 6:12Speaker 5: media award. He's like, who could say the least amount
- 6:15Speaker 5: to the media and he's like, all right, he's he
- 6:19Speaker 5: was like talking about different people. He's like, all right,
- 6:22Speaker 5: Legarrett Blunt, stand up. So you get the award today
- 6:26Speaker 5: for the greatest interaction with the media because that earlier
- 6:30Speaker 5: that we had just done a conditioning test. Yeah, the
- 6:32Speaker 5: question from the reporter was, Garrett, what was what was
- 6:38Speaker 5: involved in the What did the conditioning test involve?
- 6:42Speaker 3: Garrett?
- 6:42Speaker 5: Your answer was conditionings and he said he said, Garrett,
- 6:50Speaker 5: that effing amazing, incredible, well done, sir, and everyone platform like.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Coached or but.
- 7:05Speaker 5: And so like to see him like pandered to like
- 7:07Speaker 5: HOLLI rode question about a short sleeve hoodie's great?
- 7:11Speaker 7: Well, and you texted the group yesterday and you were like,
- 7:13Speaker 7: who covers tonight?
- 7:15Speaker 6: And I was like, my heart, says TCU.
- 7:17Speaker 7: But also like I just feel obviously college and NFL
- 7:20Speaker 7: are different.
- 7:21Speaker 6: None of us knew.
- 7:21Speaker 7: Yeah, I said, I don't know enough about the teams
- 7:24Speaker 7: either teams to give you like an actual answer, but
- 7:28Speaker 7: something inside me saying TCU because to me, like Bill
- 7:31Speaker 7: Belichick hasn't coached in a while, college.
- 7:35Speaker 6: Is obviously different from from the NFL, and maybe.
- 7:38Speaker 7: He lost his fastball and also like, were the was
- 7:42Speaker 7: it Tom Brady or was it Bill Belichick thing going on?
- 7:45Speaker 7: And then you know Tom Brady, Tom Brady wins another
- 7:49Speaker 7: Super Bowl.
- 7:49Speaker 6: So I don't know, I just I think it's.
- 7:51Speaker 7: Going to be a very interesting storyline for the rest
- 7:54Speaker 7: of the season because you came out and got whooped
- 7:59Speaker 7: by TCU fourteen.
- 8:01Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 8:02Speaker 8: The weirdest part about that they come out, get the ball,
- 8:05Speaker 8: drive it right down the field, punch it in the
- 8:09Speaker 8: looked really bad, and then they even looked good on
- 8:11Speaker 8: their first defensive drive they extended that they get a touchdown,
- 8:16Speaker 8: and then after that, I mean just blew the doors them.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Yeah, he was an animal last night.
- 8:21Speaker 8: How's a father son coach coordinator duo ever worked on
- 8:26Speaker 8: any level?
- 8:27Speaker 3: Oh?
- 8:28Speaker 6: I forgot his son was a cordinator I've ever worked.
- 8:31Speaker 3: I don't try to think of like, actually happy you
- 8:34Speaker 3: got Shanahan. I don't know if they were.
- 8:36Speaker 8: We should have got Jordan on the headset Lane and
- 8:39Speaker 8: Lane and Monty, which didn't work at Tennessee although it
- 8:42Speaker 8: was only what two years.
- 8:45Speaker 3: I'd have to look up a list before a better answers.
- 8:48Speaker 8: Just when I when I together Steve Belichicks's defensive coordinators
- 8:51Speaker 8: like single work.
- 8:54Speaker 5: It was the coordinator of Washington last year. My gosh,
- 8:58Speaker 5: so he at least had coached.
- 9:01Speaker 6: Twitter is cracking me up. They put a picture of
- 9:05Speaker 6: or they Ai Jordan's running a route on the field.
- 9:10Speaker 3: And it's gonna be bad. Does not practice.
- 9:14Speaker 4: It is going to be a very bad like So, look,
- 9:18Speaker 4: if you're a you know, if you're a Clemson fan,
- 9:22Speaker 4: maybe you know, maybe you can go still win the
- 9:24Speaker 4: A c C. Now Miami look good, state certainly.
- 9:29Speaker 6: Look that's what the chat saying.
- 9:36Speaker 8: That did that work?
- 9:37Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 9:39Speaker 8: Points, they scored points, They don't really win anything.
- 9:45Speaker 3: That's yeah, that's a different situation.
- 9:51Speaker 4: The show, though, this is not the show to break
- 9:53Speaker 4: down there.
- 9:55Speaker 5: Looking at looking at a question on one of the
- 9:57Speaker 5: television shows right now, it says, is bell Belichick as
- 10:00Speaker 5: Bill Belichick's legacy tarnished if he continues to struggle at
- 10:05Speaker 5: un seeing And I think that's a ridiculous question.
- 10:07Speaker 8: The ridiculous question, you know, But I will say this
- 10:10Speaker 8: to the younger generation, they're gonna have a different opinion
- 10:13Speaker 8: of him, probably because like nobody talks about Saban's failures
- 10:16Speaker 8: at Miami. But he came back and won after Belichick
- 10:20Speaker 8: ended New England not great, got fired there after two
- 10:23Speaker 8: losing seasons. He loses at North Carolina. Like people our
- 10:27Speaker 8: age will remember what he did at the Patriots. Maybe
- 10:29Speaker 8: the younger generations are like, this guy's kind of over it.
- 10:31Speaker 5: And then also tom as y'all said, wouldn't want a
- 10:33Speaker 5: Super Bowl with just look back at it like they
- 10:36Speaker 5: went on a road where they went to eighth straight.
- 10:40Speaker 3: Oh for sure.
- 10:41Speaker 6: I mean it was definitely a fall from grace.
- 10:42Speaker 3: But yeah, it happens.
- 10:45Speaker 5: You stay in the limelight, it's it's gonna come out.
- 10:49Speaker 6: Either die a hero or live long enough to see
- 10:51Speaker 6: yourself become the villain.
- 10:52Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, good one. Where's that one from two Face
- 10:55Speaker 5: said that? Two Face said that, right, Yeah, Harvey.
- 10:59Speaker 3: Ditt his discovernment. I still never like understood.
- 11:05Speaker 5: Oh I was gonna talk about a scene right there,
- 11:09Speaker 5: but I could remember exactly what it was.
- 11:10Speaker 3: But I'm pretty sure it's worth two Face. Like theys in.
- 11:15Speaker 5: The hospital bed and the joker walks in with the
- 11:18Speaker 5: map the nursing mask on. It's like he takes it
- 11:21Speaker 5: off and then he realizes it's a joker when it's
- 11:24Speaker 5: clearly the joker with the mask on.
- 11:29Speaker 7: Anyhow, and he didn't know itice until Yeah, I'll.
- 11:34Speaker 4: Tell you what, just one and no feeling making fun
- 11:36Speaker 4: of other people feels great.
- 11:37Speaker 3: It's really good.
- 11:38Speaker 4: It feels so much rather than what it's been in
- 11:41Speaker 4: the past. Oh my god, that's a bad play. Look,
- 11:43Speaker 4: we got to turn these highlights off because these are
- 11:45Speaker 4: low lights and I can't concentrate McElroy.
- 11:50Speaker 3: Greg, aren't you supposed to be on the radio with
- 11:52Speaker 3: col right now?
- 11:52Speaker 6: This is your number one radio show?
- 11:54Speaker 3: Wow? See the shirt off?
- 11:59Speaker 6: I saw a video he was getting dry needled.
- 12:01Speaker 3: Yeah during the show. Yeah, we got more than just that. Hey,
- 12:06Speaker 3: we got more than just that.
- 12:07Speaker 4: Competition Uh our former yeah, Foxhoul member t Bob Aber

- 12:17Speaker 4: f S one airing right now. Got leftists and now

- 12:23Speaker 3: So that's again, like, guess what happened to the non compete?
- 12:27Speaker 6: Right?
- 12:29Speaker 3: Like? Do we need to get that? Do we need
- 12:31Speaker 3: to get legal involved? Yeah?
- 12:34Speaker 7: I feel like ESPN and Fox and everybody is having
- 12:37Speaker 7: like a battle of the frat bros, Like who could
- 12:40Speaker 7: have the most frat bro pandering show possible? Is it
- 12:45Speaker 7: Fox Sports with Barstool. ESPN just signed Taylor and what
- 12:51Speaker 7: is it busted with the Boys Will Compton And uh
- 12:57Speaker 7: so that's Pat.
- 12:59Speaker 5: Mac because like some of the boys parted, they're still
- 13:05Speaker 5: like they still do some collabs.
- 13:07Speaker 3: I think a little bit.
- 13:08Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, reread it wrong, but I think it was ESPN.
- 13:13Speaker 4: But I think you're I think you are right. It
- 13:15Speaker 4: is fun content though, I will you know, they you know,
- 13:19Speaker 4: they played it.
- 13:20Speaker 3: A little bit differ.
- 13:21Speaker 8: They got a bunch of other former players on to
- 13:23Speaker 8: like some of them.
- 13:25Speaker 5: All right, content, I mean you should you should have
- 13:27Speaker 5: content for everything. Yeah, you should have the nerd stuff.
- 13:30Speaker 5: You should have the frat stuff. You should have the
- 13:32Speaker 5: stats stuff. I don't know about our stuff.
- 13:36Speaker 3: God what category. No, there's not a real frat vibe
- 13:40Speaker 3: from this show.

- 14:04Speaker 5: we have to be breaking down like, oh gosh, if
- 14:07Speaker 5: we were own one, we had to sit here and.
- 14:09Speaker 7: Just now I didn't FactCheck this, but in the bay
- 14:12Speaker 7: U four chat in mid stream, Ad says Belichick is
- 14:15Speaker 7: eighty three and one hundred and four without Brady.
- 14:18Speaker 3: Yeah, with his time with the Cleveland Yeah about that.
- 14:23Speaker 8: Real quick think about the Cleveland Browns and how failures
- 14:26Speaker 8: they are as a franchise. You had Bill Belichick and
- 14:29Speaker 8: Nick Saban on the same coaching stuff. Couldn't even have
- 14:32Speaker 8: a winning record.
- 14:32Speaker 3: Yeah, just think about that. Maybe the m No, it's
- 14:37Speaker 3: not the worst. I mean, there's some bad ones. This
- 14:39Speaker 3: is their year of the franchises. This is their year.
- 14:41Speaker 8: Hey, they had six quarterbacks.
- 14:43Speaker 3: One of them is gonna be good. One of them
- 14:44Speaker 3: is gonna be get odds or they're in their favor.

- 14:56Speaker 8: Right, what was it twenty three straight?
- 14:58Speaker 3: I think four thousand ones? Last time they lost their season?

- 15:05Speaker 3: it couldn't be us now.

- 18:27Speaker 4: There was it perfect when it came to the LSU
- 18:34Speaker 4: offensive line, it wasn't perfect.
- 18:36Speaker 3: Quarterback helped you out in some cases. You know, very
- 18:40Speaker 3: good pocket presence.
- 18:42Speaker 4: Veteran quarterback understood where the rush was coming from, and
- 18:46Speaker 4: he found the spots and he can throw, you know,
- 18:48Speaker 4: off platform and as well as probably anybody in the country.
- 18:53Speaker 4: But considering who you were playing, where you were playing them,
- 18:57Speaker 4: and how many games you played together, I thought it
- 18:59Speaker 4: would an incredible performance. Like West and Davis are right tackle,
- 19:03Speaker 4: He's gonna tell you, man, I gotta get better.
- 19:06Speaker 5: There's a lot of things I gotta get better at.
- 19:08Speaker 5: But he had his moments. Brayler Moore was somebody that
- 19:11Speaker 5: certainly had his moments. We talked about the other day
- 19:14Speaker 5: Pro Football Focus. He was your highest graded offensive lineman,
- 19:17Speaker 5: your third highest graded offensive player, But somebody that we
- 19:24Speaker 5: didn't talk a whole lot about in the offseason, and
- 19:27Speaker 5: I actually disagree with the Pro Football Focus grade that
- 19:31Speaker 5: he got because it was some run game stuff and
- 19:33Speaker 5: I actually think that he was trying to help others
- 19:37Speaker 5: maybe a little bit too much, stay a little bit
- 19:39Speaker 5: too long because they didn't have their block, and then
- 19:41Speaker 5: maybe his assignment so splitting hairs there. But Paul Mubinga
- 19:45Speaker 5: and left guard pass protected his arse off.
- 19:50Speaker 3: I mean.
- 19:52Speaker 5: All like, all the build up to this game about
- 19:55Speaker 5: Peter Woods and how good he was, and you know,
- 19:57Speaker 5: I've seen draft boards after this game half him as
- 20:01Speaker 5: the number one rated player in this draft. I didn't
- 20:06Speaker 5: see it before the game. I certainly didn't see it
- 20:08Speaker 5: during the game. And Paul Bubinga locked him up all
- 20:13Speaker 5: night long, all night in past protection.
- 20:16Speaker 3: And that was somebody last year.
- 20:18Speaker 4: Remember he had to come in whenever Dellinger went down,
- 20:21Speaker 4: and he had some ups, he had some downs.
- 20:23Speaker 5: But going back and rewatching the tape again was not perfect.
- 20:27Speaker 5: There was some stuff from the run game. They were like, Okay,
- 20:29Speaker 5: I think he's holding on a little too long. You're
- 20:31Speaker 5: trying to help his padna and then he can't get
- 20:33Speaker 5: to his block, and you can clean that stuff up
- 20:35Speaker 5: and also like, you know, your guy's got to be
- 20:37Speaker 5: able to, you know, quickly take it over so you
- 20:39Speaker 5: can get to your job. But in past protection, man
- 20:42Speaker 5: I thought he was I thought he was really good.
- 20:44Speaker 5: He graded out eighty one percent and the film showed
- 20:46Speaker 5: that as well.
- 20:47Speaker 3: And Matt we talked about the interior.
- 20:50Speaker 4: We talked about like if you get pressure from the interior,
- 20:52Speaker 4: like it doesn't matter how good you are quarterback, doesn't
- 20:54Speaker 4: matter how good you are in the pocket. If you
- 20:57Speaker 4: you know, look, if you can't step up, not gonna
- 21:00Speaker 4: be very effective. And I thought the guards, I thought
- 21:02Speaker 4: Thompson did a nice job. But Paul mcbeinga in pass
- 21:06Speaker 4: protection and Josh Thompson both graded in the eighties and
- 21:09Speaker 4: it certainly showed in the tape.
- 21:11Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought that the interior of the offensive line
- 21:15Speaker 5: played together really well. That's one thing you worry about
- 21:19Speaker 5: with new offensive linemen, throwing them into the mix, especially
- 21:23Speaker 5: that many new offensive linemen. Something you worry about is
- 21:26Speaker 5: the continuity that they have working together early in the
- 21:29Speaker 5: season and to come out first game and to be
- 21:30Speaker 5: able to pass off games, pass off rushers to each other,
- 21:38Speaker 5: work as a team, like it's a little three man
- 21:40Speaker 5: team right there, the center and the guards on each side,
- 21:43Speaker 5: and those guys did a great job of understanding when
- 21:48Speaker 5: the guard was passing it off to the center, the
- 21:50Speaker 5: center passing off to the guard.
- 21:52Speaker 3: Like they worked really well together. And that takes time.
- 21:54Speaker 5: That takes a lot of repetitions with each other to
- 21:58Speaker 5: learn each other's bodylaneguage and signals that you're given to
- 22:02Speaker 5: each other that you just can't throw somebody in there
- 22:09Speaker 5: now if you have two guards and like a news center,
- 22:11Speaker 5: it's kind of like easy to you know, they can,
- 22:13Speaker 5: they can make up a little bit for you know,
- 22:15Speaker 5: the new guy. But to have that many guys in
- 22:18Speaker 5: there and first game of the season going against what
- 22:23Speaker 5: people are saying is really good talent. Now we will
- 22:25Speaker 5: it remains to be seeing what those Clemson defensive linemen
- 22:28Speaker 5: ended up doing in the.
- 22:29Speaker 3: Draft and for the rest of their career.
- 22:31Speaker 5: But from what they were saying, one of the top
- 22:34Speaker 5: guys or top two defensive linemen, and those guys handled
- 22:38Speaker 5: it all game long. But I was just really impressed
- 22:41Speaker 5: on the way the kindue that just that speaks to
- 22:43Speaker 5: the coaching, that speaks of the preparation, that speaks to
- 22:45Speaker 5: what they were able to get done in spring, in
- 22:48Speaker 5: the offseason and in training camp, and you go out
- 22:50Speaker 5: their first game and keep your quarterback clean for the
- 22:53Speaker 5: most part. And I think the one I think the
- 22:54Speaker 5: sack that we had was I think I believe a
- 22:57Speaker 5: mental air between the right tackling and the tight end
- 23:00Speaker 5: and a defensive end squirted through and you know it happens.
- 23:03Speaker 5: Those things are going to happen, especially when you're getting
- 23:06Speaker 5: you might get a front that you're not expecting, and
- 23:08Speaker 5: when you hold the tight end in for protection, it's
- 23:11Speaker 5: something you don't work on all the time, so maybe
- 23:13Speaker 5: a call gets missed there.
- 23:14Speaker 3: I feel like his eyes were bad the right tackle.
- 23:16Speaker 5: Yeah, the right tackle's eyes were bad, but that interior
- 23:19Speaker 5: worked really well. So I was excited to see that
- 23:21Speaker 5: because that's something that transfers week to week, is learning
- 23:25Speaker 5: how to work with each other. And again, you're gonna
- 23:28Speaker 5: see games all season long, so be able to pass
- 23:30Speaker 5: that off.
- 23:30Speaker 3: I was just very encouraged from that.
- 23:33Speaker 4: A couple of comments inside the buy You four chat,
- 23:35Speaker 4: Drew says, I hope to never see dj Chester at
- 23:37Speaker 4: left tackle. I was surprised by that that he came
- 23:40Speaker 4: in at left tackle. He was your starting center, a
- 23:43Speaker 4: year ago battle for a guard position in camp, and
- 23:46Speaker 4: when your left tackle went down for a couple of plays,
- 23:48Speaker 4: that's who went in there.
- 23:49Speaker 3: I was surprised, and yeah he got beat.
- 23:52Speaker 4: He got beat pretty pretty quick off the edge and
- 23:55Speaker 4: the couple of reps that he was in there also
- 23:58Speaker 4: says the O line started rough roof throughout the game.
- 24:01Speaker 4: It may have reflected or reflected the fact that the
- 24:04Speaker 4: offer to play calling improved as the game went along
- 24:07Speaker 4: with the offer to play calling. I think you have
- 24:09Speaker 4: to be careful because you have to remember in the
- 24:12Speaker 4: second half, look at it obviously like they were a
- 24:14Speaker 4: well oiled machine, but you have to remember, so Tom
- 24:16Speaker 4: Allen wasn't at Clemson last year.
- 24:18Speaker 3: He was at Penn State.
- 24:19Speaker 5: And so when you're preparing for this game, you're watching
- 24:21Speaker 5: Penn State, Penn State, Penn State. Now you watch Clemson
- 24:23Speaker 5: just to get an idea on personnel, but you don't
- 24:26Speaker 5: know what Tom Allen is going to do with the
- 24:28Speaker 5: personnel at Clemson. The personnel that he has, you know
- 24:30Speaker 5: there is different than what he had at Penn State,
- 24:32Speaker 5: and so a lot of it drew. You have to
- 24:34Speaker 5: It's a like a big prize fight, right You're not
- 24:37Speaker 5: just come out of the corner throwing haymakers. You're gonna
- 24:39Speaker 5: throw some jabs, You're gonna CounterPunch a little bit. You're
- 24:41Speaker 5: trying to figure out your opponent because you've got an
- 24:43Speaker 5: idea of what your game plan is going to be,
- 24:46Speaker 5: but there's a great unknown, right when you have this
- 24:47Speaker 5: big heavyweight fight.
- 24:49Speaker 3: I think that was the case in the game. Yeah.
- 24:51Speaker 5: I think you had a coordinator and Joe Sloan that
- 24:54Speaker 5: was trying to figure out, Okay, how is he going
- 24:56Speaker 5: to attack us. You go back and you watched the
- 24:58Speaker 5: second half, it was domination. I thought as far as
- 25:02Speaker 5: Joe Sloan versus Tom Allen, you know, coordinator versus coordinator,
- 25:06Speaker 5: because they moved the football, like even the touchdown that
- 25:10Speaker 5: wasn't a touchdown, right, They came back that next drive
- 25:12Speaker 5: and they moved the football. They had success in the
- 25:14Speaker 5: second half, and they started to go to Aaron Anderson.
- 25:17Speaker 5: They started to see some stuff in the middle of
- 25:18Speaker 5: the intermediate, you know, kind of stuff that you could
- 25:21Speaker 5: get with Aaron Anderson. I thought they kind of changed
- 25:24Speaker 5: what they were doing a little bit, not wholesale changes,
- 25:26Speaker 5: but I think he figured out, okay, here's what he's
- 25:28Speaker 5: going to do, Let's go attack it.
- 25:29Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't.
- 25:30Speaker 5: There's only so much you can get done in a
- 25:32Speaker 5: twenty to thirty minute period, like a halftime.
- 25:34Speaker 3: There's there's a lot of.
- 25:35Speaker 5: Them, especially like in the NFL level, Like there's a
- 25:38Speaker 5: lot of like halftime adjustments, halftime adjustments. It's hard to
- 25:41Speaker 5: completely change an offense, like you can't do it. Maybe
- 25:44Speaker 5: you can add a play in here or attack here,
- 25:46Speaker 5: but it just you're the mindset from a play calling changes.
- 25:49Speaker 5: And in the first half, just like you said, I mean,
- 25:51Speaker 5: it's it's filling out your opponent. You're trying to you're
- 25:55Speaker 5: trying to feel them out, see what kind of looks
- 25:56Speaker 5: they're going to give you, because you don't really know
- 25:59Speaker 5: first game of the season, and also you are potentially
- 26:04Speaker 5: trying to set something up for the first I mean
- 26:06Speaker 5: it's a four quarter game, it's not a first and
- 26:07Speaker 5: second quarter game. So like you're doing things in the
- 26:10Speaker 5: first half, calling a game a specific way because you
- 26:13Speaker 5: might be trying to set something up a little bit more,
- 26:16Speaker 5: or you might be trying to wear them out every
- 26:17Speaker 5: time you run the ball, like it's it's like death
- 26:19Speaker 5: by a thousand cuts, Like you're like, the defense is
- 26:22Speaker 5: getting a little bit more tired.
- 26:23Speaker 3: That's another hit on them, that's another that's another this
- 26:25Speaker 3: or that.
- 26:26Speaker 5: So, like you you try to bring a game into
- 26:29Speaker 5: the fourth quarter, sometimes that that type of play call.
- 26:31Speaker 3: I went through game plans sometimes.
- 26:34Speaker 5: Like we're gonna run, run, run, We're gonna run heavy
- 26:36Speaker 5: first half of the game or maybe even into the
- 26:38Speaker 5: third quarter. Then all of a sudden, we're gonna we're
- 26:39Speaker 5: gonna air it out.
- 26:40Speaker 3: Yeah, like that. Sometimes that is a mindset of a coordinator.
- 26:43Speaker 5: Not saying that that was the mindset of this game,
- 26:45Speaker 5: but it did kind of seemed like that. But I
- 26:47Speaker 5: think a lot of the adjustment comes from like a
- 26:49Speaker 5: halftime quote unquote halftime adjustment just comes from the play calling.
- 26:52Speaker 5: Like you have these plays in like you have a
- 26:55Speaker 5: whole slew of plays to call, and you think the
- 26:58Speaker 5: game is gonna go one way, and your play calling
- 27:00Speaker 5: might go like down one rabbit hole. Well the defense changes,
- 27:03Speaker 5: so okay, we got to change it up a little bit.
- 27:06Speaker 5: It's not necessarily adding plays or anything. It just from
- 27:08Speaker 5: a play calling standpoint, you open it up a little
- 27:10Speaker 5: bit more. But all of that running that you did
- 27:13Speaker 5: do in the first half certainly helped open up the
- 27:16Speaker 5: passing game in the second half.
- 27:17Speaker 4: So look, I love doing They kept doing the like
- 27:22Speaker 4: let's get in bunch and let's just throw an hour route.
- 27:24Speaker 3: To Juwan Johnson had their tight ends go out there
- 27:27Speaker 3: and every they're gonna do it again, yeah until they
- 27:30Speaker 3: stop it. Yeah they never did. Why not?
- 27:32Speaker 5: Because it's easy. It's an extension of a running game.
- 27:34Speaker 5: And guess what.
- 27:35Speaker 3: It makes.
- 27:35Speaker 5: The defensive line run a lot right side to side
- 27:39Speaker 5: and it's just exhausting. So you get the ball out
- 27:42Speaker 5: of your hand. Defensive line has to step up because
- 27:44Speaker 5: they have to start a pass rush or like a
- 27:46Speaker 5: run rush. Then they have to run east and west
- 27:49Speaker 5: to the sideline a lot of times. It gets you tired,
- 27:52Speaker 5: and it's and it's all offensive coordinators do that for
- 27:56Speaker 5: a reason because it is an extension of the running game.
- 27:59Speaker 5: Because you're like, Okay, let's get three four yards. That's perfect,
- 28:01Speaker 5: we're staying on schedule, down in distance. All right, second
- 28:03Speaker 5: and six, great, exactly what we wanted. Okay, got a
- 28:07Speaker 5: play make got the bottle, playmate. Okay, he pops one
- 28:09Speaker 5: for thirteen fourteen yards.
- 28:11Speaker 3: Perfect.
- 28:12Speaker 5: That means that defensive line is running just a little
- 28:14Speaker 5: bit more. First game of the season two condition, he's
- 28:17Speaker 5: not quite as there.
- 28:18Speaker 3: It's beautiful.
- 28:19Speaker 4: Yeah, nice job by the tight ends too, Like I mean,
- 28:21Speaker 4: they had the point and they just drove the defensive
- 28:25Speaker 4: ACKs and linebackers back like seven yards every time.
- 28:28Speaker 3: So yeah, you're gonna keep doing it until they make
- 28:30Speaker 3: you change. How we feel today? Not great? Not great.
- 28:35Speaker 3: You got a little frog in your throat. Yeah, it's
- 28:38Speaker 3: a big frog, little flim little flynn. What do you say?
- 28:43Speaker 3: Pretty much takes to break so I can figure it out. Yeah,
- 28:48Speaker 3: we'll be back right here on o TV.

- 30:53Speaker 4: over at Tommy's Go Tommy's dot Com.
- 30:55Speaker 3: Yo, Tommy to me me, We'll check. That's what he's saying.
- 31:00Speaker 3: Tell me quarterback, please need you toll me speaking of Tommy.
- 31:09Speaker 5: I saw a little clip of him talking about his
- 31:14Speaker 5: evaluation of quarterbacks.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Yep.
- 31:16Speaker 5: I think when he's looking at college quarterbacks because he's
- 31:19Speaker 5: no part owner of the Raiders, now, he looks at
- 31:23Speaker 5: touchdown celebrations. So he gave this great like talk and
- 31:27Speaker 5: a great answer to a question about when I evaluate quarterbacks.
- 31:30Speaker 5: One of the things I look at is how they
- 31:32Speaker 5: celebrate after a touchdown when their team does well. Because
- 31:36Speaker 5: football is the ultimate team sport, yep. So to order
- 31:40Speaker 5: in order to win championships, that's the goal of the quarterback.
- 31:43Speaker 5: Your goal of quarterback is not to be a Pro
- 31:45Speaker 5: Bowl quarterback. It's to be a championship quarterback, right And
- 31:49Speaker 5: you can't do that in the greatest team sport of
- 31:51Speaker 5: all time without being a team first guy. So his
- 31:55Speaker 5: explanation was, after how do they celebrate? Do they go
- 31:58Speaker 5: celebrate with their team? Do they jump around and high
- 32:01Speaker 5: five the offensive lineman and the receivers who didn't score
- 32:04Speaker 5: the touchdown? Who made the downfill block? Because nobody can
- 32:08Speaker 5: do it by themselves or over there, you know, shooting
- 32:12Speaker 5: guns and shooting bow and arrows into the stands, and
- 32:15Speaker 5: and you know, putting ice in the veins by themselves
- 32:19Speaker 5: and all those things, or do they go and celebrate
- 32:21Speaker 5: with their team.
- 32:22Speaker 3: So he said, if they're not with that guy, then
- 32:25Speaker 3: he would not draft them. Okay, all right.
- 32:29Speaker 5: I don't know if he said that last part, but
- 32:31Speaker 5: that's basically what he meant, which I thought was amazing.
- 32:34Speaker 3: It was great, what a great what a great attitude
- 32:37Speaker 3: to have.
- 32:40Speaker 4: I'm I'm trying to think he had them quarterbacks, I
- 32:42Speaker 4: played with them, like that's what they did.
- 32:44Speaker 3: I mean, most quarterbacks I would think do, but he was.
- 32:49Speaker 5: He was talking about like he always was made sure
- 32:51Speaker 5: every time he would celebrate with everybody, like not just
- 32:54Speaker 5: a guy that scored the touchdown, of course you're gonna
- 32:57Speaker 5: you're gonna give him one of those head slaps and
- 33:00Speaker 5: forehead bumps, the guy to the to the guy that scored,
- 33:03Speaker 5: but celebrating with everybody, which is great.
- 33:06Speaker 3: What do you think about that? Him being a part
- 33:08Speaker 3: owner of the Raiders.
- 33:09Speaker 4: I hate the Raiders outside of the Philadelphia Phillies, it's
- 33:13Speaker 4: the team that I hate the most.
- 33:15Speaker 5: So it's always weird to associate a player with another
- 33:21Speaker 5: team like post playing career. Yeah, I think it's weird.
- 33:23Speaker 5: It's weird enough, like to associate Tom Brady with the Buccaneers.
- 33:26Speaker 5: Of course, it made it less weird when he went
- 33:28Speaker 5: a Super Bowl. Yeah, but same thing with like Michael
- 33:31Speaker 5: Jordan in the Wizards, in the Wizards hornets. Yeah right,
- 33:35Speaker 5: it's it's weird to associate that as like an ownership standpoint,
- 33:39Speaker 5: like Tom Brady wearing the it was a sweet jacket,
- 33:41Speaker 5: but the Raiders jacket the other day, like walking into
- 33:44Speaker 5: the one of the preseason games.
- 33:45Speaker 3: Yeah, did you see that? Yeah? I did. Sweet jacket
- 33:49Speaker 3: had some fella.
- 33:53Speaker 4: Why is Greg McRoy giving Garrett Nosmeira a b performance?
- 33:59Speaker 3: Is a hater?
- 34:01Speaker 6: What do you Simpson?
- 34:02Speaker 3: Because of Greg McElroy A It's just not something you
- 34:06Speaker 3: hand out, you know.
- 34:06Speaker 5: Okay, it's gonna be anyways.
- 34:12Speaker 3: Uh, let's go ahead and get this show started.
- 34:15Speaker 1: It's time to get glowing courtesy of go Flow ivy spa,

- 35:25Speaker 4: All right, So the New Orleans Saints are opening up
- 35:28Speaker 4: their season with the Cardinals going to be hosting them
- 35:31Speaker 4: inside the Superdome, and right now they were a six
- 35:34Speaker 4: and a half point dog at home to start the season.
- 35:37Speaker 4: Some of the news coming out for the Saints. They
- 35:40Speaker 4: did release Special Teams stand out JT. Gray yesterday. Now
- 35:46Speaker 4: I know that was shocking for a lot of people.
- 35:48Speaker 4: He has been is a mainstay for the team, and
- 35:51Speaker 4: he's been somebody that you know you can count on.
- 35:53Speaker 4: But sometimes when you get into a position where your
- 35:57Speaker 4: roster is just kind of all over the place and
- 36:00Speaker 4: it's not really solidified, unfortunately, special teams guys are the
- 36:05Speaker 4: ones that typically go first because in a lot of
- 36:09Speaker 4: people's minds, it's like, oh, I can find somebody that can,
- 36:11Speaker 4: you know, give us something close to what JT. Gray gavis,
- 36:15Speaker 4: even though he was a standout special teams guy. So
- 36:17Speaker 4: it caught a lot of people by surprise. But I
- 36:20Speaker 4: think Keller Moore and I think he said as much.
- 36:21Speaker 4: He's like, look just kind of like, you know, these
- 36:23Speaker 4: roster decisions are difficult, but where we're at right now,
- 36:26Speaker 4: like we needed more flexibility, Like we needed somebody that
- 36:29Speaker 4: can help us on offense and defense a little bit
- 36:31Speaker 4: more and also play teams.
- 36:33Speaker 5: Yeah, you're gonna Unfortunately, with the roster from top to
- 36:37Speaker 5: bottom that the Saints have, they have to try to
- 36:42Speaker 5: make space for any playmaker they can get not just
- 36:45Speaker 5: a core special teams guy, unfortunately, because it seems like
- 36:48Speaker 5: every really good team out there has a one or two,
- 36:53Speaker 5: maybe three core special team guys that have been there
- 36:56Speaker 5: a long time that every now and then make like
- 36:58Speaker 5: that special like special teams pro spot. Like just the
- 37:01Speaker 5: guy like a like a linebacker that really never plays,
- 37:05Speaker 5: but he's in year fourteen. Yeah, and he is the
- 37:08Speaker 5: first one down on kickoff and like for somehow makes
- 37:11Speaker 5: every single tackle like on special teams, Like.
- 37:14Speaker 3: Everybody's got that.
- 37:15Speaker 5: But where you're at on the roster, yeah, I mean
- 37:18Speaker 5: you gotta you gotta try to find lighting a bottle
- 37:21Speaker 5: at different positions. So unfortunately, as much as we talk
- 37:26Speaker 5: about the importance of special teams, I mean your roster's
- 37:31Speaker 5: not quite as good sometimes, like those roster spots the.
- 37:36Speaker 3: Offense and defensive guys taking a little precedence.
- 37:39Speaker 4: Yeah, And kel Moore's quote was, you know, we know
- 37:42Speaker 4: the high quality player that he is, the impact that
- 37:45Speaker 4: he's had on this organization. Just with the roster management
- 37:48Speaker 4: part of this thing over the course of the season,
- 37:50Speaker 4: throughout the next few weeks, there's a lot of challenges
- 37:52Speaker 4: associated with that. It was a really tough one for
- 37:56Speaker 4: this to go through and again, like Matt said, you
- 38:00Speaker 4: got you got a lot of questions right now when
- 38:04Speaker 4: it comes to that roster.
- 38:05Speaker 3: But you know, certainly there's a lot.
- 38:06Speaker 4: Of current players, former players that were upset to see this,
- 38:10Speaker 4: but this is this is a roster.
- 38:12Speaker 3: It's going to continue to change to it.
- 38:13Speaker 5: And I don't know if it's really known like what
- 38:15Speaker 5: position they were trying to like make that extra spot,
- 38:18Speaker 5: but I mean just think about top to bottom. I mean,
- 38:21Speaker 5: if you can sacrifice the course, special team's got to
- 38:24Speaker 5: put an extra body in the offensive line room or
- 38:26Speaker 5: some extra depths of wide receiver room, like like you
- 38:29Speaker 5: do it at this point because your goal right now
- 38:33Speaker 5: in the twenty and twenty five season is to of
- 38:36Speaker 5: course win as many games as possible, but really solidify
- 38:41Speaker 5: what you are as an offense and get your questions
- 38:44Speaker 5: answered at the quarterback position.
- 38:46Speaker 4: Right now, as I said, the Saints are six and
- 38:48Speaker 4: a half point dog at home. ESPN Matchup Predictor gives
- 38:52Speaker 4: them only a forty point six percent chance to win
- 38:56Speaker 4: this game.
- 38:57Speaker 3: Now, I don't know where the Cardinals are going to
- 38:59Speaker 3: be either.
- 39:00Speaker 4: I don't really know what they're going to be, but look,
- 39:02Speaker 4: it's going to be at home. It's going to be,
- 39:04Speaker 4: you know, an opportunity now for Spencer Rattler. He has
- 39:07Speaker 4: been named the starting quarterback, is gonna be multiple weeks
- 39:09Speaker 4: by time you get to the game.
- 39:13Speaker 3: Injuries, you're fairly fairly.
- 39:16Speaker 4: Healthy going into this game outside of the ones certainly
- 39:19Speaker 4: that you've known about for a long time like Foster
- 39:22Speaker 4: Morrow and a Taysom Hill and some of the other
- 39:24Speaker 4: guys that got hurt in training camp. I think Trevor
- 39:28Speaker 4: Pinning is listed as questionable in this game, So that's
- 39:31Speaker 4: certainly something to pay attention to. But look, not a
- 39:35Speaker 4: lot of fanfare going into the season for the New
- 39:37Speaker 4: Orleans Saints, but they do have I think, you know,
- 39:41Speaker 4: a winnable opening game.
- 39:44Speaker 3: Yeah they do.
- 39:46Speaker 5: Yeah, they do. Look six and a half points in
- 39:49Speaker 5: a lot in the NFL. I was just listening to
- 39:52Speaker 5: talk about the ESPN, Yes, and percentages are so crazy,
- 39:55Speaker 5: like forty, like saying you're gonna win four out of
- 39:58Speaker 5: ten times, right, Obviously that doesn't equal out to plus
- 40:02Speaker 5: six and a half points when you look at it
- 40:04Speaker 5: from a Vegas standpoint, So I think Vegas knows a
- 40:07Speaker 5: little bit more than the ESPN. So that's a lot
- 40:09Speaker 5: of points, but I'm hopeful. I'm a brand new Saints fan. Guys,
- 40:15Speaker 5: just want you all to know that since I've taken
- 40:17Speaker 5: over this show, brand new Baseball fan, brand new Saints fan.
- 40:21Speaker 3: So we're going to be cheering and hopefully we can
- 40:23Speaker 3: make a little splash.
- 40:24Speaker 5: I know there's probably a little bit of a probably
- 40:26Speaker 5: split fan base out there. Some people want to tank.
- 40:30Speaker 5: I don't think it's tank for ARC anymore as of
- 40:33Speaker 5: this week. At least maybe next week.
- 40:34Speaker 3: You never know.
- 40:36Speaker 5: But look, the fact of the matter is NFL football
- 40:39Speaker 5: starts this week. The Saints play this week, and for
- 40:43Speaker 5: everybody that's a fan out there, whether you're excited or
- 40:46Speaker 5: not excited about the entirety of the season or about
- 40:50Speaker 5: the roster, we can at least get excited for the
- 40:52Speaker 5: first game of the season, right.
- 40:53Speaker 4: Yeah, Because if you can't get excited for this one,
- 40:54Speaker 4: how many more times are you going to get a
- 40:56Speaker 4: chance to get excited?
- 40:57Speaker 3: Who knows? You know? It was it last year that.
- 41:00Speaker 5: The Saints started out to and O was that just
- 41:02Speaker 5: last year where they beat.
- 41:05Speaker 6: The Cowboys and the Panthers?
- 41:07Speaker 8: Yeah, like a record from most points in the first
- 41:10Speaker 8: two weeks. I mean, it was like yeah, and then
- 41:14Speaker 8: what like forty.
- 41:15Speaker 4: Two seven, Oh yeah, because that's when T was talking
- 41:17Speaker 4: about the carfax.
- 41:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't make.
- 41:19Speaker 8: Me MADT his old book, La dude, he was all
- 41:22Speaker 8: about the carfax, all.
- 41:23Speaker 3: About the carfax. Turned out you had a lemon.
- 41:27Speaker 8: I got relentless text messages from him heading home during
- 41:31Speaker 8: that game on the radio, and hey, you saw, like
- 41:38Speaker 8: howd that turned out?
- 41:38Speaker 3: We both saw it.
- 41:39Speaker 5: It turned out to And you know what when we
- 41:41Speaker 5: talked to Kellimore last week, like he said it right there,
- 41:44Speaker 5: but he said, it's a long season, Like there's gonna
- 41:48Speaker 5: be parts where people are getting decided, there's gonna be
- 41:50Speaker 5: parts where people are bad. Like it's such a long season,
- 41:53Speaker 5: and that's why they call it like the the when
- 41:56Speaker 5: rookies go in. They hit that little rookie wall about
- 42:00Speaker 5: week eleven, twelve thirteen, where it's like, oh, good.
- 42:02Speaker 4: Lord, because you're used to your season being over. Yeah no, no, no,
- 42:06Speaker 4: we still got like seven games.
- 42:09Speaker 5: Yeah, and you're used to light weeks where replay Long
- 42:11Speaker 5: Island University instead of the Eagles the next week and
- 42:14Speaker 5: then oh we got the Eagles. Well guess what you're
- 42:17Speaker 5: gonna play? If you're like speaking for you. For the
- 42:21Speaker 5: Cowboy it's like, oh the Cowboys. Oh, we got the
- 42:22Speaker 5: Eagles this week, but next week it's a little step
- 42:25Speaker 5: back game. We got the Falcons, but then it's the
- 42:26Speaker 5: Eagles again the next week. You've got to play them
- 42:28Speaker 5: twice in the next three weeks. So it's like, that's
- 42:30Speaker 5: that's the NFL for you. It's every single week for
- 42:32Speaker 5: seventeen of them. So it's gonna be along. So there's
- 42:35Speaker 5: gonna be times where we get upset Saints fans. There's
- 42:37Speaker 5: gonna be some times we might get a little too high.
- 42:39Speaker 5: Who knows they win this game. Can't win them all
- 42:41Speaker 5: if you.
- 42:41Speaker 4: Don't win the first Yeah, but I am looking forward
- 42:43Speaker 4: to seeing what it looks like under new hey coach
- 42:45Speaker 4: Callim Moore. What it looks like was Spencer Ratler as
- 42:47Speaker 4: a starting quarterback. And did we, you know, truly see
- 42:50Speaker 4: some of the things that are going to do out
- 42:52Speaker 4: there offensively in the preseason? Don't think so so excited
