- 0:03Speaker 1: Oh, oh, oh, it's Mac and Bo on your radio, baby.
- 0:07Speaker 2: This is my friend Matt.
- 0:09Speaker 3: Posh, come on, Posh.
- 0:10Speaker 1: This is my friend T-Bone.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Let's have some fun.
- 0:15Speaker 4: I can't go to work without listening to Mac and Bone.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Do it live.
- 0:28Speaker 5: Jack Stratton, formation, scopetta. They're going to let him let
- 0:30Speaker 5: go of his arm. They let him let go of
- 0:32Speaker 5: his arm. Interception again, Lloyd. He's going to get in,
- 0:35Speaker 5: he's going to get in. You're going to get in. Touchdown!
- 0:40Speaker 6: Touchdown!
- 0:41Speaker 2: Touchdown!
- 0:43Speaker 3: David Lloyd! Copetes en serpentinas! Con pulgos artificiales! Con chismas encendidas! Báilale!
- 0:53Speaker 1: Báilale!
- 0:54Speaker 3: Báilale!
- 0:55Speaker 7: That is the Panther Spanish radio team. That is the
- 0:59Speaker 7: voice of Jaime Moreno getting all kinds of fired up
- 1:02Speaker 7: over the Devin Lloyd pick six play, which was absolutely glorious,
- 1:07Speaker 7: as was Devin Lloyd's entire freaking performance on Sunday, man.
- 1:12Speaker 3: That's beautiful.
- 1:13Speaker 8: You know things are going well, Matt, when we started
- 1:15Speaker 8: to bring out the Spanish announce team audio clips. It
- 1:18Speaker 8: feels like in the best of times, those things always
- 1:20Speaker 8: seem to surface.
- 1:21Speaker 9: 2015.
- 1:21Speaker 8: The Gano field goal also was one that was an infamy.
- 1:25Speaker 8: Remember the Gano when he hit the game winner from
- 1:28Speaker 8: however long that was? That was a big one. Cam Newton.
- 1:31Speaker 7: What did they call him? Like El Dinosaur or something
- 1:34Speaker 7: like that? Yeah, something like that. We would not ever, ever, ever,
- 1:40Speaker 7: Call our next guest El Dinosaur. Because that's not what
- 1:43Speaker 7: we do here.
- 1:44Speaker 3: Even if it would fit. Even if it would fit.
- 1:46Speaker 3: Because I know what you were thinking. I'm trying to
- 1:47Speaker 3: stop it from happening.
- 1:48Speaker 7: By the way, our next guest, one of his special teams,
- 1:51Speaker 7: now fellow special teamer now all of a sudden, is
- 1:54Speaker 7: Jalen Coker. We talked about it last segment. I asked
- 1:57Speaker 7: the question, do any regulars in the NFL... in this
- 2:00Speaker 7: modern era, still return punts. It seems very rare. The
- 2:04Speaker 7: two top ones, a lot of people are texting these in,
- 2:06Speaker 7: but you, AI Search, the punt return guys, Parker Washington
- 2:10Speaker 7: and Jacksonville, and Josh Downs. Feels like the two biggest
- 2:15Speaker 7: offensive roles that are doing the punt returns.
- 2:17Speaker 3: Yes, sir.
- 2:18Speaker 7: So it's done a little bit. Anyway, we can ask
- 2:21Speaker 7: JJ about this. JJ Jansen, the leader of that special
- 2:26Speaker 7: teams unit, ladies and gentlemen, the Ironman of your Carolina Panthers,
- 2:30Speaker 7: America's long snapper, joins us for a little special Victory
- 2:33Speaker 7: Tuesday Snapchats.
- 2:35Speaker 3: JJ, how you doing, man? What's going on?
- 2:38Speaker 9: Speaker 4 0 1. Well, look, I got a couple
- 2:39Speaker 9: of things I got to comment on. I have, and
- 2:41Speaker 9: often I'm called a dinosaur, but unrelated to why cam
- 2:44Speaker 9: was commenting on different.
- 2:47Speaker 6: Things at that point.
- 2:50Speaker 9: I'm going to, I'm going to jump into the coker conversation.
- 2:52Speaker 9: Marcus Jones is the best part returner in the NFL
- 2:55Speaker 9: last year. He's the full-time nickel corner for the new
- 2:58Speaker 9: England Patriot, the best one in the league. That's a
- 3:01Speaker 9: good couple more. I'm going to throw a couple more
- 3:04Speaker 9: stats at you.
- 3:04Speaker 6: Cause I'm ready for this conversation last year, last year,
- 3:09Speaker 6: we had 24 total punt returns in the entire season,
- 3:13Speaker 6: like caught and returned 24.
- 3:16Speaker 9: You guys are talking like it's like 37 plays a game.
- 3:19Speaker 9: It's a couple very important plays. And obviously Jalen was
- 3:22Speaker 9: fantastic led to 50 yards of a part return yardage.
- 3:26Speaker 9: And obviously there was a lot of reasons why we
- 3:28Speaker 9: had such a good job in the field position game.
- 3:31Speaker 9: That was, you said something kind of interesting that was
- 3:34Speaker 9: 20 yards of field position difference between us and Atlanta.
- 3:38Speaker 9: But that was like on 10, that was like on
- 3:40Speaker 9: 10 or 11 possessions, meaning 200 yards in the game.
- 3:44Speaker 9: It's a really important, it's a really important job. Jalen
- 3:47Speaker 9: obviously did a fantastic. And the last piece to this
- 3:50Speaker 9: whole conversation is I think there's something very special about
- 3:55Speaker 9: having a guy back there that has a bigger role
- 3:59Speaker 9: with the rest of the team, it takes the pressure
- 4:02Speaker 9: off of that ball in the air, that play, because
- 4:04Speaker 9: he knows that not only is this one of the
- 4:07Speaker 9: plays he's playing, but he has other ways of impacting.
- 4:10Speaker 9: I always thought the toughest returners to go against... We're
- 4:13Speaker 9: the West Welkers, the Julian Edelman, the Rashid Shaheed. Not
- 4:17Speaker 9: only are they fantastic returners, but they have such a
- 4:20Speaker 9: big role on offense or defense that they are more fearless.
- 4:24Speaker 9: And that's really tough to go against when someone isn't
- 4:27Speaker 9: worried about like, Hey, the ball's in the air and
- 4:29Speaker 9: this is.
- 4:30Speaker 6: My only job.
- 4:31Speaker 9: Those guys are easy to play against because they're, They're
- 4:34Speaker 9: filled with fear and that's easy to go down as
- 4:36Speaker 9: a punt return guy. So also good morning. How are
- 4:39Speaker 9: you guys doing?
- 4:41Speaker 8: People are mad at JJ for bringing facts into the show.
- 4:44Speaker 8: Let our guys just be themselves.
- 4:47Speaker 3: JJ, good morning. And you know what?
- 4:49Speaker 7: You talked to me into it. Coke man, keep returning
- 4:51Speaker 7: those punts, baby. Another texter accused us of acting like
- 4:55Speaker 7: peewee football moms with this fear over Jalen Coker's health.
- 5:00Speaker 7: He's a grown man who plays football.
- 5:03Speaker 3: I'm just protecting our guys' hamstrings. That's all I'm trying
- 5:05Speaker 3: to do here.
- 5:08Speaker 9: Oh, but I think, I think you guys, I think
- 5:10Speaker 9: you guys are right to be concerned and keep a lookout.
- 5:13Speaker 9: Like certainly TMAC and Coker and XL were fantastic this week.
- 5:17Speaker 9: And you certainly don't want to take anything away from
- 5:20Speaker 9: the office or if a defensive player went back there,
- 5:23Speaker 9: I just want to add to the conversation that it
- 5:25Speaker 9: is so challenging for the other team when the guy
- 5:29Speaker 9: standing back there is fearless. And obviously we saw Coker
- 5:33Speaker 9: never been back there in an NFL game catches it
- 5:35Speaker 9: and runs for like 39 yards up, up the sideline.
- 5:39Speaker 9: And then the underrated play from his perspective is they
- 5:43Speaker 9: hit a really good point in the second quarter. That was,
- 5:47Speaker 9: would have gone out of bounds at the seven yard line.
- 5:49Speaker 9: He catches it, makes one guy miss and gets the
- 5:51Speaker 9: ball to the 20. And that's where we started drive
- 5:55Speaker 9: that I think we went down and scored a touchdown on. So, like,
- 5:57Speaker 9: that's the stuff that sometimes those unheralded plays, we call
- 6:02Speaker 9: it in our room the first first down, and he
- 6:04Speaker 9: did a really good job with that as well.
- 6:06Speaker 8: JJ, the other day, obviously there's a lot of storylines
- 6:09Speaker 8: we can talk about, but the performance of Devin Lloyd.
- 6:12Speaker 8: We're talking historic in nature in a lot of ways.
- 6:15Speaker 8: You've seen, all jokes aside, a lot of great linebacker
- 6:19Speaker 8: performances from your teammates, and you know all about the
- 6:22Speaker 8: ones of the past. But of the ones you've been
- 6:24Speaker 8: involved in, defensive performance-wise, how high up does that rank
- 6:29Speaker 8: of Devon's game on Sunday?
- 6:31Speaker 9: Well, I think when you consider the complete package of
- 6:33Speaker 9: everything that he did, I think that's probably the best
- 6:36Speaker 9: individual game. The, the, certainly the two others that come
- 6:39Speaker 9: to mind, we've talked about them on the show before
- 6:42Speaker 9: the Kinkley's two games, the one in Dallas with the
- 6:45Speaker 9: two interceptions and the touchdown. I don't think he got
- 6:48Speaker 9: a sack in that game. So Devin one ups in there.
- 6:50Speaker 9: Now Devin didn't punch the quarterback in the face like
- 6:53Speaker 9: Luke did. So maybe that's an unofficial stat in the,
- 6:56Speaker 9: in the record book. I'm not a particular category, but
- 7:01Speaker 9: And then obviously he had, we've talked about it. Luke
- 7:04Speaker 9: had the 24 tackles and the, and the interception in
- 7:07Speaker 9: the playoff clinching game versus New Orleans in 2013. But,
- 7:12Speaker 9: I thought Devin was fantastic this week. Him and Bobby
- 7:14Speaker 9: O'Kara K were a fantastic on the inside, both tipped
- 7:18Speaker 9: balls for the other guy as we went through it.
- 7:20Speaker 9: I mean, that was, that was pretty good. I mean,
- 7:22Speaker 9: there could have been one or two more interceptions by
- 7:24Speaker 9: the linebackers, a couple of tip balls. You know, Bobby
- 7:27Speaker 9: had the one that just barely nicked the ground would
- 7:30Speaker 9: have been another interception. So those guys were really active,
- 7:33Speaker 9: you know, certainly a ton of credit needs to go
- 7:36Speaker 9: to the, you know, the front four, front five, getting
- 7:38Speaker 9: after Cooper rush and strand and, But, but I mean,
- 7:42Speaker 9: he was so active in the game, the fourth down
- 7:45Speaker 9: stop kind of gets washed away because of the sacks
- 7:47Speaker 9: and the interceptions. But that was a big play in
- 7:49Speaker 9: the game when, when the game was certainly very much
- 7:52Speaker 9: in doubt and being able to sniff out sort of
- 7:54Speaker 9: a trick play there on fourth and one was a big,
- 7:57Speaker 9: big stop for us as well.
- 7:58Speaker 7: Multiple people are pointing out, JJ, that Luke's pick six
- 8:02Speaker 7: did not involve a teammate dropping the people's elbow on
- 8:06Speaker 7: a member of the team. Travis Gibson went on social
- 8:10Speaker 7: media and explained what he was doing. Says, I was
- 8:14Speaker 7: trying to jump over Devin Lloyd and avoid hitting Devin Lloyd,
- 8:18Speaker 7: but the way he landed was on top of a falcon,
- 8:21Speaker 7: and it looked very much bone like a wrestling maneuver. Yeah.
- 8:25Speaker 8: He was trying to avoid Devin Lloyd.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 8:27Speaker 3: That was hilarious.
- 8:28Speaker 9: Avoid Devin. He felt mildly humorous and bad about that simultaneously.
- 8:34Speaker 9: We call him POV for very obvious reasons. For those
- 8:37Speaker 9: of you that follow him on social media. And that
- 8:39Speaker 9: was definitely a, a, POV crushed the Falcons on.
- 8:42Speaker 3: Your way down.
- 8:43Speaker 9: But yeah, those plays get a little funky. It looks
- 8:47Speaker 9: so awkward, but when guys are getting rolled up on,
- 8:50Speaker 9: sometimes they know just to get their feet out of
- 8:52Speaker 9: the ground. And unfortunately it kind of landed into a
- 8:55Speaker 9: WWE move, but That was definitely a whoopsie from the game,
- 8:59Speaker 9: but certainly funny for social media.
- 9:01Speaker 3: He avoided Devin better than Atlanta did. The quarterbacks couldn't
- 9:05Speaker 3: do that. No doubt about it. Travis Gibson also.
- 9:08Speaker 7: JJ, I don't know if you– you probably got better
- 9:11Speaker 7: things to do than sit around and watch ESPN's Monday
- 9:14Speaker 7: night pregame show.
- 9:15Speaker 3: I do not, though, sir. They do a thing. Jason
- 9:17Speaker 3: Kelsey does a thing. What is it?
- 9:19Speaker 7: Find that work or whatever. I guess it's a new feature. And,
- 9:23Speaker 7: you know, it's it's guys given the extra mile. And
- 9:25Speaker 7: he he featured the Panthers defense on Devin Lloyd's first
- 9:29Speaker 7: interception return, the one where he stiff armed and got
- 9:32Speaker 7: the most yards. And they showed all the guys on
- 9:35Speaker 7: defense blocking. And that included Travis Gibson, who was way
- 9:39Speaker 7: behind the play, but still drove a Falcons player like
- 9:42Speaker 7: 15 yards backwards away from the play. Like it was
- 9:45Speaker 7: it was sweet, man.
- 9:47Speaker 9: Those guys are well coached up on it. That is
- 9:50Speaker 9: part of the drill work, especially in training camp, but
- 9:53Speaker 9: even as we go through the season, finding work, you know,
- 9:55Speaker 9: blocking the intended receivers, finding the quarterback, if he wants
- 9:59Speaker 9: to get involved, that's a highly detailed work. And the,
- 10:02Speaker 9: and the cool part is, and I think you saw
- 10:03Speaker 9: it come alive is once that happens once in a
- 10:06Speaker 9: game or in a, in a season guys realize, Hey,
- 10:09Speaker 9: that's this guy blocks for me once, let me go
- 10:11Speaker 9: block for him. And it becomes a really kind of
- 10:14Speaker 9: infectious thing, especially when the ball is getting turned over,
- 10:16Speaker 9: and those things seem to come in bunches as they
- 10:18Speaker 9: did on Sunday, but it's all about guys finding work
- 10:22Speaker 9: and getting to the ball and then blocking for one another.
- 10:25Speaker 8: JJ, I was texting with Colin Hoggard, our boss here,
- 10:29Speaker 8: on Sunday, or Saturday, before you played Atlanta. He pointed
- 10:33Speaker 8: out the Atlanta game was your 35th career game. against
- 10:38Speaker 8: atlanta and then we started talking about is jj going
- 10:41Speaker 8: to get to the point when he starts to play
- 10:43Speaker 8: against you know the sons of former teammates or people
- 10:47Speaker 8: that played in the league and i immediately thought okay
- 10:51Speaker 8: your first game as a panther jj was 2009 right.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Yes.
- 10:56Speaker 8: And Jeremiah Trotter was on that Eagles team in game one,
- 11:01Speaker 8: and now Josiah Trotter's on Tampa Bay. So this year,
- 11:04Speaker 8: there might be other examples, but I know for sure
- 11:06Speaker 8: this year you will play against Josiah Trotter twice, having
- 11:10Speaker 8: played in a game against his father in 2009.
- 11:14Speaker 9: I'm trying to think, you know, certainly go to all
- 11:16Speaker 9: the juniors. Those are always the easier ones to figure out.
- 11:18Speaker 9: I don't know if I had played against Joey Porter senior.
- 11:21Speaker 9: That might've been another one. I can't quite remember. I'll
- 11:26Speaker 9: have to go back and look, but yeah, I'm sure there's,
- 11:27Speaker 9: there's probably a couple of guys that were a little
- 11:29Speaker 9: bit older when I came into the league. And the
- 11:33Speaker 9: genetics and football are strong. So if you have a
- 11:35Speaker 9: dad that played in the NFL, there's a decent chance
- 11:38Speaker 9: you've got a shot at making it yourself. Yeah.
- 11:39Speaker 3: Joey Porter did play to 2011. So I'm sure somewhere
- 11:42Speaker 3: along the way.
- 11:43Speaker 8: Also at some point you keep going, JJ, and you
- 11:45Speaker 8: will Thomas Davis's son will eventually make it to the league.
- 11:48Speaker 8: You may have a moment where you're playing or playing
- 11:51Speaker 8: with TD son.
- 11:53Speaker 9: And the best part of that is he's at Notre Dame.
- 11:56Speaker 3: Oh, there you go.
- 11:57Speaker 9: It is perfect because I can just keep turning the knife.
- 12:00Speaker 9: As much as TD gave me crap for all those years,
- 12:03Speaker 9: at the end of the day, he selected the Irish.
- 12:06Speaker 9: So that's all that you need to know. That's all
- 12:09Speaker 9: you need to know.
- 12:10Speaker 3: I love it.
- 12:10Speaker 7: We got a texter suggesting that JJ stay around long
- 12:13Speaker 7: enough to play against a grandson of a guy he
- 12:16Speaker 7: played with.
- 12:17Speaker 3: Or against.
- 12:17Speaker 4: That would be unbelievable.
- 12:19Speaker 3: People are bringing up the.
- 12:21Speaker 9: Can you imagine what... Can you guys imagine what the
- 12:23Speaker 9: league minimum will be in 20 60?
- 12:25Speaker 3: That'd be unbelievable.
- 12:28Speaker 8: Keep working out baby. A lot of people bring it up.
- 12:30Speaker 8: The Harrisons, Marvin Harrison and his son. That's gotta be one, right?
- 12:34Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:35Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:35Speaker 9: That, that would definitely be one for sure.
- 12:37Speaker 3: Frank Gore, Frank Gore and Frank Gore jr. Coming up.
- 12:39Speaker 3: There's a lot of them. That's crazy.
- 12:41Speaker 9: We're just going for the juniors. See, that's how everybody
- 12:44Speaker 9: else is working. I bet you there's somebody that isn't
- 12:46Speaker 9: a junior out there.
- 12:47Speaker 3: That's the challenge.
- 12:48Speaker 9: Come on audience here to find that's a little harder.
- 12:51Speaker 3: Come on listeners. JJ has issued a challenge to you.
- 12:54Speaker 3: All right.
- 12:55Speaker 7: I want to make sure I ask you this while
- 12:57Speaker 7: we have you on. Um, it's, it's awesome to me
- 13:01Speaker 7: to see how downfield this passing game has been the
- 13:05Speaker 7: average distance of target about 10 and a half where
- 13:08Speaker 7: last year for Bryce, it was 6.9. The average play
- 13:11Speaker 7: action depth of target the other day was 13. It
- 13:15Speaker 7: was high on the first day too. So It's more
- 13:18Speaker 7: pushing the ball downfield. It's more play action downfield. These
- 13:21Speaker 7: are things we really wanted. And like from your perspective,
- 13:27Speaker 7: what do you think is the reason here? Because we
- 13:29Speaker 7: on the outside say, oh, this is something Idzik much
- 13:32Speaker 7: want to do. And he really was pushing Canales. Now
- 13:34Speaker 7: that I'm calling the plays, can we do this? It's
- 13:36Speaker 7: maybe it's not that simple. Like, why do you think
- 13:39Speaker 7: this has been an emphasis so far?
- 13:42Speaker 9: Well, I think as the league is continuing to evolve,
- 13:45Speaker 9: there is, there is the opportunities for teams to sort
- 13:48Speaker 9: of learn, Hey, what is going well? And I think
- 13:51Speaker 9: there's a big part of even Bryce's growth, right? You
- 13:54Speaker 9: come from college, you're in the shotgun and all you're
- 13:57Speaker 9: doing is kind of the more of a spread style
- 14:00Speaker 9: of offense. And I think there's, there's room for development,
- 14:03Speaker 9: getting centers are getting quarterbacks under center and turning their
- 14:06Speaker 9: back to the defense and is a very challenging skill
- 14:10Speaker 9: that has to be required. We all sit back and go,
- 14:12Speaker 9: we'll just run play action. That's the best play in
- 14:15Speaker 9: football on first intent, which it is, but asking quarterbacks
- 14:18Speaker 9: to turn their back to the defense for someone that
- 14:21Speaker 9: has watched the defense, his entire career is a development
- 14:25Speaker 9: and it is a learning process. That being said, this
- 14:29Speaker 9: is the best receiving core Bryce has had. We've, we've
- 14:31Speaker 9: got three or four guys that are really good. They're
- 14:33Speaker 9: excellent with contested catches. We saw both really all three
- 14:37Speaker 9: of them make outstanding catches. A couple on the sideline XL,
- 14:40Speaker 9: the thing that the TV broadcast didn't catch on the
- 14:43Speaker 9: XL ball is when Bryce first threw it, I thought
- 14:46Speaker 9: he overthrew XL and, and X hit another gear to
- 14:50Speaker 9: go run that thing down. Like that's, that's some of
- 14:53Speaker 9: the unspoken talks about like depth of target. Like, uh,
- 14:58Speaker 9: do you have guys that can go make one-on-one grabs?
- 15:01Speaker 9: Do you have guys that can go run a ball down?
- 15:03Speaker 9: Because really in that particular case, not only is it
- 15:06Speaker 9: a two minute drive that we're trying to get down
- 15:08Speaker 9: the field, but but Bryce is throwing the ball away
- 15:10Speaker 9: from the defender. So you've got to have guys go
- 15:12Speaker 9: get it. So from that perspective, I think the wide
- 15:15Speaker 9: receivers are as much a part of the conversation as Bryce,
- 15:19Speaker 9: as Isaac, as coach Canales. I mean, who's calling the
- 15:22Speaker 9: plays is, is obviously a big conversation, but the entire staff,
- 15:26Speaker 9: you know, coach bevel has come in. He came from Miami.
- 15:28Speaker 9: They ran a lot of play action. I think there's
- 15:30Speaker 9: new creativity throughout that room, different voices, new concepts. but
- 15:35Speaker 9: really Bryce has been the one that's made it alive. And,
- 15:37Speaker 9: and just from a, from a fan and an observer, like,
- 15:41Speaker 9: like myself on the sideline, not only do I think
- 15:44Speaker 9: we've had a really good job with the scheme and
- 15:46Speaker 9: we've moved the pocket, but Bryce has really found his
- 15:50Speaker 9: footing in terms of being able to manipulate the pocket.
- 15:53Speaker 9: I don't think there's anyone better in the NFL at
- 15:56Speaker 9: throwing the ball. Like when his mind says now the
- 16:00Speaker 9: ball comes out so fast and, And you see it.
- 16:02Speaker 9: He doesn't always need his feet. He's got all the
- 16:04Speaker 9: different arm angles. The creativity comes alive. And on the
- 16:08Speaker 9: play action passing, his ability to access all different parts
- 16:11Speaker 9: of the field has been really impressive to watch.
- 16:14Speaker 8: We didn't bring up the note about you and the
- 16:16Speaker 8: fathers and sons to have you disrespected by the text
- 16:20Speaker 8: line this way. You did not play. against Archie Manning, Peyton,
- 16:24Speaker 8: and Eli, all right?
- 16:25Speaker 3: Of all people. A lot of people bringing up Joe
- 16:29Speaker 3: and JC. I didn't play.
- 16:29Speaker 9: Against Peyton and Eli. I just missed Archie.
- 16:33Speaker 3: Now, a lot of.
- 16:33Speaker 8: People are saying Joe and JC. You missed Joe Horn
- 16:37Speaker 8: by a couple years, right, on his end?
- 16:39Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:40Speaker 9: It probably wouldn't have been by much, though. I've got
- 16:42Speaker 9: to be honest.
- 16:42Speaker 3: It was two years. Two years. New York, two years
- 16:45Speaker 3: after Joe.
- 16:48Speaker 7: Here's a hell of an idea. Multiple people want you
- 16:51Speaker 7: to pull a LeBron. They want you to train your
- 16:53Speaker 7: son the long snap. You and him long snap in
- 16:57Speaker 7: the league at the same time, J.J.
- 17:00Speaker 9: Well, again, I cannot wait to see what the league
- 17:03Speaker 9: minimum is in 2045. That'll be fantastic. That'll be a
- 17:07Speaker 9: fantastic opportunity.
- 17:08Speaker 3: I saw you out there with my, I saw you
- 17:11Speaker 3: work with him on long snap.
- 17:13Speaker 9: Yeah, this isn't going to shock you, but my son
- 17:15Speaker 9: is the long snapper at his middle school team as
- 17:19Speaker 9: is TJ Olson at his middle school team. And so
- 17:22Speaker 9: there are some, there are some family heritage there. I
- 17:25Speaker 9: don't know that Greg cares that, that his son is
- 17:28Speaker 9: doing long snapping as much as it is playing tight end,
- 17:31Speaker 9: which TJ also is, but just so we can, we
- 17:34Speaker 9: can maintain the heritage of sort of a one, two
- 17:36Speaker 9: long snapper. Jansen and Olsen.
- 17:38Speaker 3: I love that. Well, Greg always thought he was better
- 17:40Speaker 3: than you, didn't he? Isn't that what you say?
- 17:41Speaker 7: So now he's got his son trying to prove that
- 17:43Speaker 7: an Olsen can snap better than a Jansen.
- 17:45Speaker 9: He still thinks he's better than me.
- 17:48Speaker 3: Of course.
- 17:48Speaker 9: That sort of stuff doesn't change.
- 17:49Speaker 7: Did you know that Olsen made an appearance in the
- 17:52Speaker 7: Fox broadcast of the game on Sunday? Did you hear
- 17:55Speaker 7: about the broadcasting snafu for Fox where they were playing
- 17:58Speaker 7: the audio of other games, including Olsen doing the Bears?
- 18:02Speaker 9: I didn't know that Greg's game made it in. I didn't.
- 18:05Speaker 9: I can assure you, not only being a Panther fan,
- 18:07Speaker 9: I think based on how ugly that game was in Chicago,
- 18:10Speaker 9: you wish he had our game here last week.
- 18:13Speaker 8: I got to tell you, it was the best of
- 18:14Speaker 8: both worlds, JT. We got Olsen doing the Panther game,
- 18:17Speaker 8: but he wasn't actually doing the Panther game. He was
- 18:19Speaker 8: doing his own game. We had Greg on the call,
- 18:21Speaker 8: but it was a little confusing.
- 18:22Speaker 3: Here for a while.
- 18:23Speaker 9: I think it was like Kevin Harlan a couple of
- 18:25Speaker 9: years ago was doing the play by play of a
- 18:27Speaker 9: game of like some other game. He wasn't even at,
- 18:30Speaker 9: I mean, look, Greg has many jobs. I'm sure he
- 18:33Speaker 9: would love to dual call games, both again in Chicago
- 18:36Speaker 9: and in Carolina.
- 18:37Speaker 3: Just ask, just ask, pull it off. All right, man.
- 18:41Speaker 7: Good talking to you. Congrats on the wind, man. We
- 18:43Speaker 7: enjoyed it as fans. Best of luck in Cleveland. Thanks
- 18:46Speaker 7: for coming on, man.
- 18:48Speaker 9: Absolutely. Just remember, we're all Coke heads.
- 18:50Speaker 3: There you go. That's a drop right there, huh, J.J.?
- 18:54Speaker 3: You the man. There you go. Yeah, that drop will
- 18:56Speaker 3: be used every time we talk about Jalen Coker now.
- 18:58Speaker 8: When we come back, Adam Gold from 99.9 The Fan
- 19:02Speaker 8: in Raleigh. He's going to try to explain to us
- 19:05Speaker 8: what he saw with the NC State Vanderbilt finish. We've
- 19:08Speaker 8: got the Canes coming up next week and plenty of
- 19:10Speaker 8: Panther talk as well on Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 19:12Speaker 3: We'll be right back.
- 19:30Speaker 7: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. It's been a fun show, man.
- 19:34Speaker 7: These winning weeks, man, they just hit different, right? They
- 19:38Speaker 7: just hit different. They don't stress you out. Although, Bone
- 19:41Speaker 7: and I, in fairness, last hour were stressed out about
- 19:43Speaker 7: Jalen Coker continuing to turn punts.
- 19:45Speaker 8: We're afraid he's going to get hurt. But JJ has
- 19:47Speaker 8: calmed us down. We had to calm JJ down and
- 19:49Speaker 8: say amen. just don't worry about it, man.
- 19:51Speaker 3: It's all good. JJ came with so many facts. I
- 19:53Speaker 3: was like, I guess I'm not worried anymore. Oh, how
- 19:56Speaker 3: can you argue with that, man?
- 19:57Speaker 7: It's been pointed out, Bone, by a texter that JJ
- 20:01Speaker 7: might know more about special teams than we do.
- 20:03Speaker 8: Someone says we got treated like the referees on a
- 20:06Speaker 8: Sunday afternoon by JJ.
- 20:07Speaker 3: Oh, that is true.
- 20:08Speaker 7: Just completely changed your mind right there on the spot.
- 20:10Speaker 7: Set you straight.
- 20:12Speaker 3: Oh, man. If you have missed any of it, you
- 20:14Speaker 3: missed it. I know what, Coker returning kicks, too.
- 20:17Speaker 7: You missed our conversation with JJ or any of the
- 20:19Speaker 7: conversations so far on this show. A lot of good,
- 20:22Speaker 7: lively Panthers talk and our What the Bleep segment as well.
- 20:26Speaker 3: Go back, listen to the podcast.
- 20:28Speaker 7: Fitty does a great job of getting them up there
- 20:31Speaker 7: on all platforms. Get up there on all platforms, WFNZ.com, Apple, Spotify,
- 20:35Speaker 7: and more. So check them out. Right now we've got
- 20:39Speaker 7: a lot of college football stuff to talk about. including
- 20:45Speaker 7: NC State finding the most NC State way to lose
- 20:49Speaker 7: a damn game ever on that late fumble as Bailey
- 20:52Speaker 7: just tried to run the clock down in the end zone.
- 20:56Speaker 7: Adam Gold joins us from 99.9 to Fan and Rally. And,
- 20:59Speaker 7: of course, weeknights here on WFNZ at 7 o'clock. He
- 21:03Speaker 7: is Adam Gold. Goldie, what the heck's happening, man?
- 21:06Speaker 3: How you doing?
- 21:06Speaker 1: I'm doing well. Why are you making me talk about that?
- 21:11Speaker 3: Because you've got to own that, man, being Mr. Raleigh.
- 21:15Speaker 3: It's my fault. I'm not blaming you. I'm not blaming you.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Dave wasn't going to take the blame.
- 21:22Speaker 6: I know.
- 21:23Speaker 3: It sounded like he lightened that up a little bit yesterday.
- 21:26Speaker 9: He did.
- 21:26Speaker 7: Spreading it around. Like, what did you, I mean, I
- 21:29Speaker 7: don't know what there is to say. It's one of
- 21:30Speaker 7: the dumbest things ever. But what is there to say
- 21:36Speaker 7: about it, Goldie?
- 21:36Speaker 3: It was absurd.
- 21:38Speaker 1: Yeah, the whole thing was absurd. I mean, look, stuff happens.
- 21:45Speaker 1: NC State stuff happens.
- 21:46Speaker 9: I don't know.
- 21:48Speaker 1: I wouldn't have taken the delay game. I would have
- 21:51Speaker 1: just lined up and punted it. And I would have
- 21:54Speaker 1: punted it as high and as far and as out
- 21:57Speaker 1: of bounds as I could have. I would have had
- 22:00Speaker 1: the punter aim the ball into the stands. I don't
- 22:03Speaker 1: even care how far it goes. You only got to
- 22:05Speaker 1: kill seven seconds. I think you can get pretty close
- 22:09Speaker 1: to seven seconds with a punt. Or you can simply
- 22:13Speaker 1: have the punter run out of the back of the
- 22:15Speaker 1: end zone and then squib kick it. They created the
- 22:19Speaker 1: most chaotic. I mean, the whole play was chaos. Did
- 22:22Speaker 1: anybody even bother to block on that play?
- 22:26Speaker 3: It didn't look like it, did it? No, no, not
- 22:28Speaker 3: at all.
- 22:29Speaker 8: This might be a, look, I preface this, this might
- 22:32Speaker 8: be a dumb question, but how are the NC State
- 22:35Speaker 8: fans holding up right now there in Raleigh?
- 22:38Speaker 1: Well, here's what's interesting to me. I found a fair
- 22:40Speaker 1: amount of people who were caping up for Dave Dorn.
- 22:43Speaker 1: And they were, you know, maybe not his coaching, but no,
- 22:47Speaker 1: he's right to blame C.J.
- 22:49Speaker 3: Bailey.
- 22:49Speaker 1: He makes all this money, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 22:51Speaker 1: I'm like, yep, the players do get paid, but let's
- 22:54Speaker 1: not let's not conflate that with being professionals because they're
- 22:59Speaker 1: not professionals. They're not professionals yet, but they do get paid.
- 23:04Speaker 1: And I think that has given people even more license
- 23:06Speaker 1: to criticize players. And I have no problem criticizing CJ Bailey.
- 23:10Speaker 1: I said it, he deserves to be criticized for it.
- 23:13Speaker 1: He screwed it up, but there was a lot of
- 23:17Speaker 1: shared blame to go around. And that's what on Saturday
- 23:22Speaker 1: evening or afternoon in Nashville, uh, That's what I didn't detect.
- 23:27Speaker 1: I basically heard we're blaming CJ. We're blaming all the
- 23:30Speaker 1: missed tackles. I can't go out on the field and
- 23:32Speaker 1: tackle for these guys. I'm like, yeah, that's kind of
- 23:35Speaker 1: out of Dave's playbook. But in a raw situation like this,
- 23:42Speaker 1: I can't even fathom how that game was lost, even
- 23:46Speaker 1: though Vanderbilt could have won that game on the possession before. So,
- 23:52Speaker 1: I mean, we lose sight of the fact that After
- 23:56Speaker 1: the middle of the third quarter, Vanderbilt was probably the
- 23:58Speaker 1: better team.
- 23:59Speaker 7: You already blew most of that 17-point lead and had
- 24:02Speaker 7: Vandy threatening before the Barnhart pick. It's not like there
- 24:06Speaker 7: weren't other things done wrong in that game, no doubt.
- 24:08Speaker 1: Correct.
- 24:10Speaker 8: Adam, I know we've talked a lot about Dabo's job security,
- 24:13Speaker 8: but we'll put him to the side here for this one.
- 24:16Speaker 8: Of the teams and coaches in the Carolinas that blew
- 24:21Speaker 8: the double-digit leads on Saturday, Doran, Beamer, Belichick, Of those three,
- 24:26Speaker 8: who do you consider to be in the most trouble
- 24:29Speaker 8: going forward?
- 24:31Speaker 1: I believe that would be Shane Beamer. I like Shane, too,
- 24:38Speaker 1: but it's kind of unraveled in South Carolina, and I
- 24:41Speaker 1: feel bad because I absolutely adore his dad. I don't
- 24:46Speaker 1: know Shane at all, but I've spent enough time with
- 24:50Speaker 1: Frank Beamer to know what he's about, and I've He's
- 24:54Speaker 1: just one of the best humans in coaching. I hope
- 24:58Speaker 1: it works out for Shane, but I think if South
- 25:01Speaker 1: Carolina wants to move on, he'll find another spot.
- 25:03Speaker 8: I read a thread yesterday from South Carolina fans. It
- 25:05Speaker 8: was on 3Thread, and it said, How are you feeling
- 25:09Speaker 8: right now? And every single comment said, love Shane, love
- 25:13Speaker 8: what he stands for. No one takes joy in the
- 25:16Speaker 8: fact that it's not succeeding. But the term, Mac and Adam,
- 25:19Speaker 8: that came up a lot was exhausting. It's been an
- 25:21Speaker 8: exhausting run of waiting for them to consistently turn the corner,
- 25:25Speaker 8: and it's just not happening.
- 25:26Speaker 3: He does seem like a great dude, though. He really does, man.
- 25:29Speaker 9: He is.
- 25:30Speaker 1: You know, here's what we shouldn't forget. That it is
- 25:34Speaker 1: the University of South Carolina. I'm not trying to throw
- 25:38Speaker 1: shade on that school and that football program. But other
- 25:43Speaker 1: than a hot second with Lou Holtz and the Steve
- 25:48Speaker 1: Spurrier era, South Carolina is kind of middling, right? They're
- 25:56Speaker 1: kind of, I don't know, Fulham?
- 26:02Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's fair.
- 26:04Speaker 7: I think that's definitely fair. No doubt about it. Goldie,
- 26:09Speaker 7: the clip.
- 26:10Speaker 1: You always get the Premier League references.
- 26:12Speaker 3: Bone's getting there, too. No, he's not. Oh, you don't
- 26:15Speaker 3: think so? No, no.
- 26:16Speaker 8: He's very down on Chelsea, Bone. I've watched every Chelsea game,
- 26:19Speaker 8: but I'll tell you what, though. There's a lot going
- 26:22Speaker 8: on in those games. Not a lot of defense from Chelsea.
- 26:25Speaker 9: Not at all.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Not a second. Hey, do you know how far Fulham
- 26:30Speaker 1: is from Chelsea, Bone?
- 26:32Speaker 3: Well, I got to be honest, Mac had to correct me.
- 26:34Speaker 8: I thought they were called Full Ham until about a
- 26:38Speaker 8: week ago. It's got to be, hey, Mac, they got
- 26:39Speaker 8: this Full Ham team.
- 26:40Speaker 3: It's got to be within five miles or so, right?
- 26:43Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like eight, seven or eight miles. Yeah,
- 26:45Speaker 1: it's right on the, I think it's the Thames.
- 26:48Speaker 3: Bone knows what all the London derbies are for Chelsea.
- 26:50Speaker 3: Of course he knows that.
- 26:51Speaker 1: Raven Cottage, man, what a setting.
- 26:53Speaker 7: All right, we're talking to Adam Gold right here on
- 26:57Speaker 7: the Mac and Bone Show. Let's talk about UNC and
- 26:59Speaker 7: Clemson's game. like, did you view that as like Clemson
- 27:07Speaker 7: made adjustments after getting down early, found something, got Tate
- 27:12Speaker 7: Reynolds going with some confidence? Like, did you view that
- 27:15Speaker 7: as well done Clemson? Did you view that as Carolina
- 27:18Speaker 7: blowing a lead and heels fans should be ticked? How
- 27:20Speaker 7: did you view that game?
- 27:22Speaker 1: I thought Carolina lost that game in the first quarter
- 27:25Speaker 1: and a half. They should have been so far ahead,
- 27:29Speaker 1: and their offense went away. I don't think they ran
- 27:32Speaker 1: the ball well enough. Maybe that's Clemson, but it looked
- 27:35Speaker 1: early on as though Carolina was just going to run
- 27:38Speaker 1: through them like poop through a goose, and that just
- 27:40Speaker 1: went the other way. And certainly I do think the
- 27:44Speaker 1: lightning delay mattered. They were not the same team after
- 27:47Speaker 1: the lightning delay, but I thought they lost that game
- 27:49Speaker 1: in the first half more so than the second part
- 27:52Speaker 1: of the game. And I think what Dabo said after
- 27:54Speaker 1: the game was true. They wore Carolina down. The Tar
- 27:58Speaker 1: Heels don't have the depth that Clemson has, even though
- 28:01Speaker 1: Clemson's kind of middling as well. But to me, Carolina
- 28:06Speaker 1: lost that game in the first half, not the second half.
- 28:10Speaker 8: Adam, a week from today, we get to see the
- 28:13Speaker 8: Canes in action for the first time, 5 p.m. next
- 28:16Speaker 8: Tuesday against the Florida Panthers. The NHL could be a
- 28:20Speaker 8: little topsy-turvy year to year. All of a sudden, a
- 28:22Speaker 8: team that was good a year before may not have
- 28:24Speaker 8: a good year. Who's the biggest challenger right now entering
- 28:28Speaker 8: the season to the Canes in the Eastern Conference?
- 28:32Speaker 1: In the division, I believe it will be Washington with
- 28:36Speaker 1: an outside chance at New Jersey. In the conference... I
- 28:41Speaker 1: know that everybody says it's Florida and Florida won the
- 28:44Speaker 1: two cups prior to Carolina and they returned basically that
- 28:47Speaker 1: entire team plus Brady could Chuck. Cause Alexander Barkoff is
- 28:53Speaker 1: back from injury, but I think Montreal is going to
- 28:56Speaker 1: be the best team in the Atlantic division, not Florida.
- 28:59Speaker 1: Brad Marchand's already hurt an older team. I think Florida
- 29:03Speaker 1: is a blue line, which if they can stay healthy
- 29:07Speaker 1: will be really good. But, man, there's a lot of
- 29:10Speaker 1: injury history on that back end, and there's some age
- 29:12Speaker 1: on that back end, too. And Jacob Markstrom, that is
- 29:16Speaker 1: a total wild card. There's a lot of teams in
- 29:18Speaker 1: the East with wild cards in goal, but Jacob Markstrom
- 29:21Speaker 1: is a big wild card in goal for me. But
- 29:24Speaker 1: I think Montreal is going to win the Atlanta. But
- 29:26Speaker 1: Florida is going to be very good. I think Tampa
- 29:28Speaker 1: will be good. I think Buffalo will be good. The
- 29:31Speaker 1: Atlantic Division is a great division. There's going to be
- 29:35Speaker 1: a team that's going to miss the playoffs in that
- 29:37Speaker 1: division that could advance a couple of rounds.
- 29:40Speaker 7: All right, Goldie. Next week, we will talk more about
- 29:42Speaker 7: the Panthers. It'll be opening day of the season next
- 29:45Speaker 7: Tuesday when we talk to you. We also will talk
- 29:48Speaker 7: about how NC State blew a game against App State.
- 29:51Speaker 3: We'll have that conversation, too.
- 29:52Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
- 29:53Speaker 3: Don't do it.
- 29:53Speaker 9: I love App, though. I love App.
- 29:55Speaker 1: I wish the game was up there.
- 29:57Speaker 7: Yeah, that would add even more intrigue to it. But, yeah,
- 30:00Speaker 7: we've got App State fans are crowing. They think State's vulnerable.
- 30:06Speaker 3: We will see. We will see. We will see. All right, Goldie,
- 30:09Speaker 3: you're the man. Thanks for coming on, as always, brother.
- 30:12Speaker 9: You got it.
- 30:12Speaker 1: Talk to you later, Pete.
- 30:13Speaker 3: All right. Listen to Goldie at seven o'clock weeknights here
- 30:16Speaker 3: on WFNZ. We replay the show. It does need to
- 30:19Speaker 3: be said, Bone, that this time there's always like a
- 30:22Speaker 3: bone to pick with Goldie on the text line afterwards.
- 30:27Speaker 3: And he doesn't give a damn. That's the beauty of Goldie.
- 30:29Speaker 3: The C.J.
- 30:30Speaker 7: Bailey stuff that he said people didn't like him saying
- 30:33Speaker 7: he's not a pro, even though he gets paid and
- 30:36Speaker 7: that the blame shouldn't be, you know, on him the
- 30:38Speaker 7: way the way it was and all that sort of stuff.
- 30:41Speaker 7: A lot of people are saying, bro, the money these
- 30:44Speaker 7: guys and he said it yesterday, the money these guys
- 30:47Speaker 7: are making. It's not like the old days when you
- 30:49Speaker 7: would feel bad holding back.
- 30:52Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
- 30:53Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 30:53Speaker 7: And athlete accountable. It's an interesting point, man. There's definitely
- 30:56Speaker 7: blame to go around, and thank God Doran said it
- 30:59Speaker 7: that way on Monday because he didn't say it that
- 31:01Speaker 7: way on Saturday.
- 31:01Speaker 8: One man that never gets blame is Fitty Aloysius Marlowe Jr.
- 31:06Speaker 3: Yeah, Fit. Fit Dog with an update.
- 31:10Speaker 11: Fitty.
- 31:11Speaker 1: Fitty.

- 31:46Speaker 2: 9-9-3-4.
- 31:47Speaker 4: So the Rams win big on Monday Night Football.
- 31:50Speaker 12: They beat the Giants 28-6. With the biggest story coming
- 31:55Speaker 12: out is that quarterback Jackson Dart believes to have a
- 32:00Speaker 12: sprained MCL.
- 32:03Speaker 4: For the Giants quarterback.
- 32:05Speaker 12: Bone was doing some digging, saw some audio where the
- 32:10Speaker 12: trainer mouthed to John Harbaugh, looks like a four to
- 32:13Speaker 12: six week absence ahead of the Giants quarterback.
- 32:17Speaker 8: Yeah, during the game, you could see the trainer, you
- 32:19Speaker 8: could actually see the words on his mouth. Four to
- 32:21Speaker 8: six weeks, and Harbaugh has a look on his face like, oh, great.
- 32:24Speaker 7: Oh, God.
- 32:25Speaker 3: I got Jameis now for a month and a few weeks. Oh,
- 32:28Speaker 3: my God.
- 32:28Speaker 7: That was ugly yesterday. Jameis is such a lovable guy, man.
- 32:31Speaker 7: Until he plays. I got to tell you, somebody said
- 32:34Speaker 7: on the text line, what's funnier, his passing or his videos?
- 32:38Speaker 3: Jameis does everything well.
- 32:40Speaker 8: He's one of the great leaders, Mac, that you don't
- 32:42Speaker 8: want leading the team on the field.
- 32:44Speaker 7: Just don't ask him to get into the game. That's
- 32:46Speaker 7: so true. Just give the speech and then go grab
- 32:49Speaker 7: the clipboard. Even Jameis looks like, oh, now I got
- 32:51Speaker 7: to go play.
- 32:52Speaker 12: Look, guys, we got Smitty on Get Up, and he's
- 32:54Speaker 12: talking about... Oh, not the Panthers, the Dallas Cowboys.
- 32:58Speaker 3: I'm glad the Cowboys finally got some run on here.
- 33:00Speaker 9: I know.
- 33:01Speaker 3: I've been worried.
- 33:01Speaker 8: They haven't taught Cowboys defense since 845 yesterday morning. When
- 33:06Speaker 8: we come back, Mac, Panthers crap. National media love for Bryce.
- 33:12Speaker 8: Some impressive Panther numbers. And finally, after a full year,
- 33:17Speaker 8: Carolina Mike has dropped a new Panthers anthem.
- 33:22Speaker 3: Heck yeah.
- 33:23Speaker 8: A fully new bop from Carolina Mike. You'll hear that next.
- 33:26Speaker 8: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 33:51Speaker 13: If you can get consistent Bryce, the Panthers are going
- 33:54Speaker 13: to be a 10-11-1 football team that's good enough to
- 33:56Speaker 13: win the division, or at minimum good enough to be
- 33:58Speaker 13: a 6th or 7th seed in the NFC.
- 34:00Speaker 6: Do you pay?
- 34:00Speaker 4: The only thing.
- 34:01Speaker 3: Do you pay? If he's consistent, you have to.
- 34:05Speaker 9: Hell yeah.
- 34:06Speaker 13: Because, one, every year the next draft class is the
- 34:09Speaker 13: greatest thing ever. Bro, this quarterback class got one dude
- 34:14Speaker 13: I'm excited about. Trinidad Chambliss.
- 34:19Speaker 7: Oh, Emmanuel Acho on the Speakeasy podcast raving about Bryce
- 34:23Speaker 7: Young and saying that Bryce Young is going to need
- 34:27Speaker 7: to get paid. And then a direct shot to the
- 34:31Speaker 7: heart of one bebop who thinks, Bone, there will be
- 34:33Speaker 7: 62 amazing quarterbacks from this draft class. And the Panthers
- 34:38Speaker 7: need to just simply draft one of them and win
- 34:41Speaker 7: 14 Super Bowls. That is a direct shot there at
- 34:44Speaker 7: that school of thought, because Acho tried to say only
- 34:47Speaker 7: Chambliss is the one that he believes. It does happen
- 34:51Speaker 7: every year, though. I'm not saying it's necessarily happening right now, Boat. Um,
- 34:55Speaker 7: although Dante Moore and that whole thing, the way he
- 34:57Speaker 7: played against Oklahoma state and that whole thing that he
- 35:00Speaker 7: has a tell that, that is able to show that
- 35:02Speaker 7: Oklahoma state picked up on that shows whether or not
- 35:04Speaker 7: he's passing.
- 35:05Speaker 3: Or they're running the ball.
- 35:06Speaker 7: Um, wasn't the best moment for him, but it does
- 35:09Speaker 7: often go that way to where, how many times when
- 35:11Speaker 7: we needed a quarterback, where we romanticizing about the upcoming class,
- 35:15Speaker 7: and then you get to the draft and it's like, eh,
- 35:17Speaker 7: there's really only a couple of these guys.
- 35:19Speaker 8: And then they get nitpicks so much that eventually, uh,
- 35:23Speaker 8: of the seven guys projected, four have flaws. Also, three
- 35:27Speaker 8: other guys will then move into the draft. Three other
- 35:29Speaker 8: guys will come out of nowhere and be first-round picks.
- 35:32Speaker 8: So from where the class is like today to where
- 35:36Speaker 8: it ends up being, Mac, Drew Auer and Kay Klubnick
- 35:40Speaker 8: were thought to be um draft prospects high draft prospects
- 35:44Speaker 8: a year ago kate especially yeah and uh and usmeyer
- 35:48Speaker 8: as well and then it happens all those guys move
- 35:51Speaker 8: out new guys move up in the draft it happens
- 35:53Speaker 8: all the time so we'll see the ideal scenario is
- 35:56Speaker 8: bryce keeps falling out he just seems so much more
- 35:58Speaker 8: confident and in control and we know that he is
- 36:02Speaker 8: getting the ball downfield more taking more shots and hitting
- 36:04Speaker 8: them and.
- 36:05Speaker 7: Uh If he keeps that up, we pay him. I
- 36:08Speaker 7: don't give a damn if they give him a dang blank.
- 36:09Speaker 7: If he's going to play like this for 17 games,
- 36:11Speaker 7: you can put a blank check on the table for Brycey.
- 36:13Speaker 3: I pay him. Because this is ridiculous, man, the way
- 36:16Speaker 3: he's playing. I pay him with Tepper's money. It's true.
- 36:20Speaker 3: We're very good at spending other people's money. We're very
- 36:23Speaker 3: good at that.
- 36:24Speaker 7: Tepper, Plotkin, and Schnall, we're willing to spend y'all's money
- 36:27Speaker 7: if you just want us to do that for you.
- 36:30Speaker 7: All right, let's do a little, instead of random crap,
- 36:32Speaker 7: let's do a little Panthers crap segment here. and bounce
- 36:34Speaker 7: around bone to a bunch of stuff. I feel like
- 36:36Speaker 7: this is the time now to give you all the
- 36:39Speaker 7: Bryce Young ranks in the NFL at quarterback, and they
- 36:44Speaker 7: are glorious.
- 36:45Speaker 3: And yes, before you.
- 36:45Speaker 7: Send your text, I realize we're two games in, and
- 36:48Speaker 7: we played the Bears and the Falcons.
- 36:49Speaker 3: I hear a full disclaimer.
- 36:50Speaker 7: I want you to realize that I am aware of that,
- 36:53Speaker 7: and there could be some regression to the mean here.
- 36:56Speaker 7: But it is just fun to talk about because he
- 36:59Speaker 7: hasn't gotten off into a start near like this. So
- 37:03Speaker 7: let's talk about his ranks around the league, Boney. He
- 37:06Speaker 7: is sixth on PFF in offensive overall grade. He is
- 37:10Speaker 7: sixth in passing grade on PFF. He is fourth in
- 37:14Speaker 7: big time throws so far this season with four of
- 37:17Speaker 7: them on PFF stat. He is ninth in turnover worthy
- 37:21Speaker 7: throw percentage. in terms of protecting the football on PFF.
- 37:26Speaker 7: He's fifth in deep passing grade, Bone, on PFF. Do
- 37:29Speaker 7: you know where he ranked last year on that? I
- 37:31Speaker 7: was a little uncertain.
- 37:33Speaker 3: Can you remind me? Oh, that was number one. That's right.
- 37:35Speaker 7: So you've got some work to do there, Bone. Fourth
- 37:37Speaker 7: in average distance of target. He's usually very low in
- 37:40Speaker 7: that one. Third in yards per attempt, he's usually low
- 37:42Speaker 7: in that one, 8.9 yards per attempt. First in overall
- 37:46Speaker 7: play action grade, first in play action passing grade, and
- 37:50Speaker 7: sixth in yards per attempt on play action. These are
- 37:53Speaker 7: just fun. He's got a lot more work to do, Boney,
- 37:56Speaker 7: but my God, what a start.
- 37:59Speaker 8: Is there any number, Mac, he hasn't been good at?
- 38:01Speaker 8: Because you just named off about 15. Is there anything
- 38:03Speaker 8: he hasn't done well?
- 38:03Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. Numbers-wise, I mean. I don't think so.
- 38:06Speaker 3: I haven't seen one. I mean, I can't.
- 38:08Speaker 7: I guess I didn't look up the rating and, like,
- 38:10Speaker 7: the completion percentage and stuff like that. I know he
- 38:13Speaker 7: did have a fair share of misses the other day
- 38:16Speaker 7: early in that game, but, my God, he's playing at
- 38:19Speaker 7: a freaking high level. And it's just– and I was
- 38:21Speaker 7: watching the– you sent me the link. I was watching
- 38:23Speaker 7: the QB Show podcast, QB School, whatever the hell I'm
- 38:26Speaker 7: trying to say, with JTO Sullivan, and it was so
- 38:30Speaker 7: fun to watch. And it just– it's more anticipation throws.
- 38:33Speaker 7: Anticipation throws to the boundary. It's just like ball placement
- 38:37Speaker 7: on the boundary. It's just a cool watch. Our little
- 38:40Speaker 7: boy's growing up. Our little Bryce, he's growing the hell up.
- 38:43Speaker 3: No doubt.
- 38:44Speaker 8: Even if he dropped off, he's not going to be–
- 38:48Speaker 8: that high in every grade the whole year. But even
- 38:50Speaker 8: if he drops off a little bit, that's still really
- 38:53Speaker 8: great stuff. So there's even room to fall a little bit.
- 38:56Speaker 7: Drop there, regress to the mean a little bit, but
- 38:58Speaker 7: your mean is not down where it's been. It feels
- 39:01Speaker 7: like it will be up higher. It's just a matter
- 39:03Speaker 7: of how much higher from last year. How about these stats?
- 39:07Speaker 7: Coker and TMAC. When Bryce throws to them, this is
- 39:10Speaker 7: per PFF. Yes, I was stat geeking out yesterday. When
- 39:13Speaker 7: Bryce throws to Coker and TMAC versus Zone Coverage... He
- 39:17Speaker 7: is 16 of 17 for 271 yards. And you saw
- 39:22Speaker 7: it the other day, Atlanta, when they were in zone,
- 39:24Speaker 7: like you could see t-mac and coker find that like
- 39:29Speaker 7: those spots those holes in the zone especially on the
- 39:31Speaker 7: outside and it was just they were and and then
- 39:35Speaker 7: with waller the coverage was tighter but bryce put it
- 39:38Speaker 7: exactly where it had to go um anyway.
- 39:41Speaker 8: Fun story i know you mentioned the the stat of
- 39:43Speaker 8: big time throws but just The visual also of some
- 39:46Speaker 8: of the throws.
- 39:47Speaker 3: You can see it.
- 39:47Speaker 8: Whether it be the week one throw to Coker, the
- 39:51Speaker 8: ball placement. I mean, there's so much to be happy
- 39:55Speaker 8: about right now with Bryce Young.
- 39:56Speaker 3: You can see it.
- 39:57Speaker 7: You're like, dude, that's a special throw with him. I'll
- 40:01Speaker 7: give a shout-out to one other guy before we get
- 40:02Speaker 7: to Carolina Mike dropping an actual new song. We have
- 40:06Speaker 7: asked for this for months. The man is delivered, and
- 40:09Speaker 7: it's Panther-themed. Shout out to Mike Jack. He leads the
- 40:13Speaker 7: entire NFL in coverage snaps per reception allowed. He has
- 40:18Speaker 7: allowed one catch in two games, 69 coverage snaps.
- 40:22Speaker 3: J.C.
- 40:23Speaker 7: Horn has allowed one every 21. He's given up three catches.
- 40:27Speaker 7: They have both been very good so far, have not
- 40:29Speaker 7: been attacked really at all. Fitty's doing the seatbelt over there.
- 40:35Speaker 7: Did you like Will Lee doing the seatbelt bone when
- 40:38Speaker 7: he got bailed out by a severe underthrow late in
- 40:40Speaker 7: the half.
- 40:41Speaker 9: The other day?
- 40:41Speaker 3: That was a bit shameless.
- 40:43Speaker 8: He got completely toasted, but the throw was so awful
- 40:47Speaker 8: that he still got seatbelted.
- 40:49Speaker 3: Did the seatbelt, yeah.
- 40:50Speaker 4: I think they should be penalized for that. If I
- 40:52Speaker 4: was an official... I would penalize.
- 40:55Speaker 8: His Uber rating on the, on the drive. They're not
- 40:57Speaker 8: very high, but he's still, still bragged about what he
- 41:00Speaker 8: did fit.
- 41:01Speaker 7: There's if you, if you want that penalized, you definitely
- 41:03Speaker 7: can't be a fan of receiver wins, gets open, but
- 41:08Speaker 7: drops the ball. And here comes on the scene late,
- 41:12Speaker 7: the DB who is doing like the incompletion signs, the
- 41:15Speaker 7: seatbelt signs at all. There's no way you could like that.
- 41:18Speaker 3: I don't like it.
- 41:19Speaker 12: Ashton Hampton did it, and I know Clemson came back
- 41:21Speaker 12: to win the game, but, Mac, he broke up a
- 41:24Speaker 12: pass down 14.
- 41:25Speaker 4: And, I mean, he's going like.
- 41:27Speaker 3: Full Richard Sherman.
- 41:28Speaker 9: He was.
- 41:28Speaker 3: Maybe he knew, Fit.
- 41:29Speaker 10: I would just point to the scoreboard. If you taunt
- 41:33Speaker 10: while losing, double flag. And then Ashton would have came
- 41:37Speaker 10: back and found you at the end of the game
- 41:38Speaker 10: and said, hey, do you see it now? But I
- 41:43Speaker 10: agree with you.
- 41:43Speaker 7: I was kind of like, bro, the game is going
- 41:45Speaker 7: terribly for you other than that great play that you
- 41:47Speaker 7: made there. All right, let's get to Carolina Mike, Bone.
- 41:50Speaker 7: We have asked for it. We have wanted this to see.
- 41:53Speaker 7: Vashti and Sheeha Quick have explained they both have been
- 41:58Speaker 7: tired of hearing the same song from Carolina Mike everywhere. Well,
- 42:02Speaker 7: ladies and everybody else listening, Carolina Mike has a new song.
- 42:06Speaker 7: And I like the fact, Bone, that he notified you personally.
- 42:09Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
- 42:10Speaker 3: That's big. That's big for you. You know? Yeah, he's
- 42:13Speaker 3: a friend. He's a dear friend. All right, so let's
- 42:16Speaker 3: hear it. Carolina Mike's new ditty, everybody. What up, party people?
- 42:21Speaker 3: It's Victory Monday.
- 42:22Speaker 11: Congrats to the Carolina Panthers for their victory against the Falcons.

- 42:51Speaker 11: We break the door. Get on your feet and make
- 42:54Speaker 11: some noise. I say get on your feet and make
- 42:57Speaker 11: some noise.
- 42:59Speaker 2: Keep pounding. Go Panthers. We're my top cats.

- 43:25Speaker 3: Go surfer.
- 43:26Speaker 12: All right.
- 43:27Speaker 3: That's pretty strong.
- 43:28Speaker 11: Jackie Freeman, our sales manager, dancing to a little Carolina mic.
- 43:33Speaker 3: I kind of like it. I kind of think that
- 43:44Speaker 3: was a pretty solid. It was going to be tough
- 43:46Speaker 3: for him to follow up such a ginormous class. He
- 43:48Speaker 3: still got $ 150, 000 in there. He did. He worked that
- 43:50Speaker 3: reference in there, didn't he?
- 43:52Speaker 8: When we come back here on the Mac and Bone
- 43:54Speaker 8: Show after rough weekends, our state, UNC, and South Carolina
- 43:58Speaker 8: fans done with their coaches. We check in on those
- 44:01Speaker 8: fan bases. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
