  Speaker 1: It's a big NFL preview show, brought to you by
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Draftking Sportsbook, Buldi West Letty. All right, let's talk in NFL.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: So what we'll do is we'll go through each division, Eddie, Kevin, myself,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: we'll pick the division winner, and then we'll celebrate ourselves
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: because we'll obviously be very wrong. This is kind of
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: how it works, you know. Someting not team that audio
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: playoffs that did in the year before will start AFC South,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: which traditionally the last few years has been a very
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: weak conference. UH Texans, Jags, Colts, and Titans. Texans were
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: ten and seven last year. Obviously, c J. Stroud, Who
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: do you think is going to be that number one
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: wide receiver over there? Tank Dell?
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Do you think it's they got Robert Woods too?
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: No? And also they just got uh yeah, and he's
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: already complaining. Nico Collins Dix is complaining every play already,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: like even preseason. Hey, I'm here, I'm hoping throw the ball,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: like if the camera stays on him, just lecturing Stroud
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: the whole time. So, uh, Texans, Jags, Colts and Titans.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Probably I'm going to assume I think the Texans won
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the division?
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Does anyone not think it's the Texans?
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: No?
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: No, I mean I want to hope maybe the Colts
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: and Anthony Richardson can kind of turn that thing around,
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: But I don't see.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I would think the Jags is more than the Colts
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: another year. Doug Peterson, Trevor Lawrence, who I still think
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: is really good. We've seen him win a playoff game,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: We've seen him be almost great at times, where Anthony
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Richardson he was like lightning in a bottle for a
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: few games and he got hurt, Like we're really I'm
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: gonna go Texans, Jags, Colts, Titans. But the I don't
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: know if the over unders on the Titans, but I
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: do feel like they may win a few more games
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: than people think. I don't think they're as terrible or
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be as terrible. Obviously, levis a lot's gonna
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: depend on that.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Losing Derrick Henry. I mean, they did.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Their offensive lines a little better, but with Derek they're terrible.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: No quarterback, no offensive line. They have a whole new
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: offense though Derrick Henry would not have fit in the
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: offense because you got the offensive corner. For the Bengals,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: they need pass catching running back, so they have two
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: spears and your boy from the Cowboys.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you got Pollard.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so they got some weapons though. Yeah, and especially
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: if Hopkins comes back healthy, it's.
• 4:08
  Speaker 7: Five and a half wins, total wins.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Five and a half. You gotta go over that.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I would think over too. But it felt so easy
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: that I have to be wrong, I know, because anytime
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I think, oh for sure, I'm so wrong. Right, So
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: we're all going Texans.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: What's the headline for the Texans? Can they do it again?
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: That's the headline. Can they surprise because it's not a surprise.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: But can they can they prove? Can they prove us?
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Prove them right? That's the headline. What's the headline for
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars. You just paid them a bunch of money
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and you got a Super Bowl coach, so now win?
• 4:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, can Trevor Lawrence?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Pay Yeah, prove everybody right? Yeah,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: he's What about the Colts? Is it all Anthony Richardson?
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: All Anthony Richardson?
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: Yea, because Gardner almost took him to playoffs?
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Gardner didn't make the Pro Bowl, but so did die exactly.
• 5:01
  Speaker 7: Everyone Richardson just has to be pretty good.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think pretty good as a floor. I think
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: awful is the floor. And I don't think he can
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: play and be pretty good. I think he's either awful
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: or a freaking amazing with just his style of play. Like,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's just gonna sit in the pocket
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and throw twenty two balls. So it's can Anthony richards
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: stay healthy? Who is Anthony Richardson? Yeah that might be
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: the headline? Who is anything like that?
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 5:34
  Speaker 7: Well stand up, see you went too far?
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Well, the real Anthony Richardson please stand up.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Please stand up and not be injured. Yeah, without crutches.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: But Jonathan Taylor, it is like he's part of the
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: team as the season starts. For last year, it was
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: all dramatic, like he wanted his money. And I'm always
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: for everybody getting paid because their live spans, their careers
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: are very short. The AFC North last year, the Ravens
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: were thirteen to four, the Browns were eleven and six,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: the Steelers ten and seven, and the Bengals nine and eight,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: which he had four winning teams. What's interesting about this
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: is the Bengals went nine and eight without a healthy Borrow,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: and so that's always like, that's everyone talking about the
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Bengals this year.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Period.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: If Burrow stays healthy, we're going to remove that from
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: our vernacular because the same thing if Lamar stays healthy.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: And sure, Burrow has a history of the last couple
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: of years of not being healthy, but Lamar had a
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: run and not being healthy. I mean, all these quarterbacks
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: have injury seasons that they've been through. So everybody's healthy
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: in this perfect world. Okay, we're in a vacum. Everybody's healthy. Ravens,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: can they get Lamar to the Super Bowl? That's the
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: big question. Derrick Henry, I think is going to be boss.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: I think Derrick Henry is going to thrive. They have
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: a pretty good offensive line. I'd say seven out of ten.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: They have a pretty good offensive line. Henry him were
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: for like a three out of ten offensive line. The
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: focus is not just going to be on Derrick Henry.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: It can't be because Lamar is where the focus has
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: gotta be. Mark Andrews back healthy. There's freaking awesome when
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: he's healthy.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: Say Flowers. So we got receivers.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: The Ravens are gonna be lethal. So I'm gonna go
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: with the Bengals winning the No, dang, what a ropid dope,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Bengals winning the division. So
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I'm picking the Bengals.
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: Eddie, I'm going Ravens. I think the Ravens are too
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: stacked to not win that division. Oh yeah, the Bengals
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: are gonna be a threat, for sure. It's gonna be tight,
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: but I think at the end the Ravens are gonna
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: take it.
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: Kevin, Yeah, I'm gonna go with the Ravens too. I
• 7:37
  Speaker 7: want to say the Bengals, but I just trust the
• 7:40
  Speaker 7: Ravens a little bit more.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: The only person to look down my homes and beat
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: him Joe Burrow, I know, and he's healthy.
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: Are you guys just riding off the Steelers? But oh yeah, no,
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: we can get there because it is a two man race.
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: I think we can get there. I think the Browns
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: are gonna be pretty good. Yeah, they got a shot
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: to make the playoffs. Yeah, I don't know they're gonna
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: win because remember, everybody's healthy.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Guys's healthy. I don't know that they can win the division.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: That this is a really strong division, like all four
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: of the teams could have winning records. Again, the thing
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: about the Steelers, I just feel like they're going to
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: be quarterback issues all season long because I think the
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: players like Justin Field's way better and Fields has a
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: much higher upside for longer than Russ than Russ.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: You think they're going to be switching them back and forth.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: No, but every every quarterback gets hurt now at some
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: point of the season. Yeah, Like really, when you say,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: like seventy percent of the quarterbacks have some issue during
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the season, some much smaller than other, or they miss
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: a few games where they miss a game or or
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: so or half or like I feel like now you
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: kind of have to have a pretty good backup that
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: can come in and be serviceable. But I want to
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: go Bengals, Ravens, Browns Steelers. Steelers have a very tough schedule.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: They may be the only team not to be above
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: five hundred. I don't want to go Bengals, Ravens, Browns,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Steelers with three of those teams having a shot to
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: make the playoffs. Eddie, what is your order?
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Sam, is you? But I'm switching Bengals and Ravens.
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: Ravens number one, Kevin, same as Eddie. Ravens, Bengals, Brown Steelers.
• 9:15
  Speaker 7: What's the headline for the Ravens Henry? Henry runs hungry?
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: You're a terrible headliner.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Can Lamar get as far as the super Bowl with
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: this squad? It's a super Bowl? When super Bowl? Can
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Lamar get that far?
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: I like it?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Something like that. What will Lamar raise the bar?
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Fair?
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: No, that's fair.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I really wanted to hate. That's a pretty good one
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: because if they don't get to the super Bowl, that's
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: kind of a bus for them. I don't think they
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: have to win it. I don't think they have to
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: win it for to be a bus they should get there,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: but I think for them to have a successful season,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: they need to get to the Super Bowl. The Bengals
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: can they claw their Oh you one with a tiger
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Burrow makes to hear where you guys go with this?
• 10:18
  Speaker 7: Go ahead and Joe Burrow himself back to help to health.
• 10:23
  Speaker 8: There you go.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Good, that's good?
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: All right? I like that.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: But isn't Burrow down?
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Go down? Can you borrow.
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: Burrow out of Okay?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I need to shut up.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: I'm just the reader man. It's not making sense to me.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: But uh, Deshaun Watson, anyone to a headline, you know,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: like three step out.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Of that one?
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I got a lot there.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, probably gonna we'll move off. Anc West Chiefs were
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: eleven to six last year, Raiders and Broncos both at
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: eight and nine and Chargers five and twelve. I would
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: assume we're all okay. Can the Chiefs three p? That's
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: that headline? We don't have to rhyme, by the way,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: it's's fine to do that. It is, yeah, but that's
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: that's it, right. Can the Chiefs do it again? That
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: would be super cool if they did. Nobody hates the Chiefs.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Some people could be annoyed as the Chiefs like Patriots
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: fans who don't want to hear that that dynasty might
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: be challenging, Right, that's you. Yeah, but nobody really hates
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: the unless you're like Taylor Swift, and then you don't
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: even hate the Chiefs. Hte yourself.
• 11:26
  Speaker 7: Mhmm.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: You can be annoyed at what the coverage is doing,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: but you're not really annoyed at what they're doing. Like,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: what's Travis Kelcey done that would make you not like
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: him other than be overexposed, which is no. Nothing that
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: he did.
• 11:40
  Speaker 7: He does he throws some temper tantrums.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: On the field, Yeah doesn't Yeah, you just see him more.
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, yeah, of course he did not like Kelsey.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: So let's say we think the Chiefs are gonna win it?
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Do we think the Chargers like they've got like one receiver?
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Who is that?
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Drone Brown? Is he their number one? I would even
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: looked that up. Josh Okay, got it, Josh Palm, you're right,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: that's tough. Hm.
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: Quentin Johnson, will you do it?
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: Oh?
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Quinton?
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Now was he a rookie. He's a rookie second year
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: and they were calling him a b TCU like Crush
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: the TCU. They were calling him a bust. But can
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: you fully bust after one year and there's a coach
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: firing when when Stalley was a defensive coat. So Jared
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Rice is kid still. It's his first year to play.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: He was drafted seventh round last year. He's a big,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: big guy, a thick guy.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: You met him, big old butt.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Really you know my big butts?
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: You do?
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: Playing football with the Broncos and the offense that they run,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: they might have found their quarterback Old Bo Yeah Bo
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Nicks And maybe just because he's white and small, we're
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: all like Breeze Part two.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: The same Bill. Yeah.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go cheat Chiefs, Broncos, Chargers, Raiders, heang
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Raiders last.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Uh yeah, what do they got going over there?
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: I was listening to a guy tell me a story
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: about interim coaches because with the Raiders, their coach was
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: an interim coach. Right, so last season those last season right?
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: So he goes in the team loves them. They win
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: a little bit. And the reason that a lot of
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: owners will let their teams with their main coaches ride
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: out and die and not fire them is because they
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: don't want an interim coach to bring new energy that's
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: pretty temporary into a locker room, have some winning, and
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: then everybody's fighting for that guy to be the coach.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: When they don't have the credentials, they don't have anything
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: to actually be that coach other than some new energy
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: maybe the benefit of a positive couple of games in
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the schedule. And I'm not saying that's what happened here,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: but that that could be what's happened here.
• 13:55
  Speaker 7: That's fair.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: But sometimes you can find a star like that, and
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: they might have I would.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Say ninety five percent to the history of time of
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: interim coaches. They did not find the star. If we're
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: playing odds, but also I just made the odds up
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: so that sounded good. AFC East Bills are eleven and six,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Dophins eleven and six last year, Jets seven and ten,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: Patriots four and thirteen. What's interesting about this is do
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: the Patriots do they get to field a full eleven players?
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, well they who knows, you know, do
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: they get do they all get pads? You know, it's
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: gonna be an interesting dynamic to see how bad they suck.
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: I mean, the rough season they are like one of
• 14:32
  Speaker 6: the contenders to be in last next year.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Right, they could finish last.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: They could have the number one pick again, yeah, or
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: not again, but they could have the number one pick overall.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: They had a top with four pick, yeah, Slasher.
• 14:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah, And I'm alright with the top pick next year
• 14:44
  Speaker 7: because we need offensive line so bad and I don't
• 14:47
  Speaker 7: want to put me behind that offensive line and it'd
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: get ugly.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be a tough year for you.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: It's okay. You want a bunch of games and Exast championship.
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: And the Celtics just won, so we're good.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: That makes you feel better.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Yep. Bills, Dolphins, Jets, those are your thre who wins
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: the division?
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: Eddie Man, we're playing that whole Everyone's healthy here, and
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: I'm assuming that if everything's right for the Jets, this
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: could be the year that the Jets win that division.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: I know it's the battle between the Bills and the Jets.
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: I for some reason just think that this is the year.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: The Bills are going to struggle. Don't know why.
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: I feel like Josh Allen was kind of on the
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: struggle bus a little bit last year.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: He came out of it. He finished strong.
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: But I think this is the year where the Bills
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: struggle a little bit and the Jets take the division.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think if there's a reason that he
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: struggles based on what we know now, he doesn't have
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: anybody to get the ball to. Ye, he's no wide
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: receivers that have been proven at all. We've seen Mahomes,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. We saw those guys win without wide receiver ones.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Basically a bunch of wide receiver threes. But that would
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: be why I think if they're not able to score
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: a bunch of points, it's because they don't have the
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: wide receivers. James Cook running back, Yeah, he had a
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: really good second half of the last ye Yeah, dev
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: two tightens that are pretty good. So boy, I think
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: everybody's gonna pick the Bills.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: That's kind of why I went Jets.
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: Well I'm going Dolphins.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, there's a lot, there's a lot there.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: But you do know that.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: It's winter when the layoffs happened. Yeah, you got to
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: get to a coat or something, But does that really matter?
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: What do you mean?
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: But you're saying to pick the division, not the super
• 16:24
  Speaker 7: Bowl not Yeah.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, at the end though, you know they do matter.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: I had a solid month of cold weather at the
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: end there.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: It wasn't great for him.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: But but like, say, you.
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: You grew up in like Minnesota, but now you live
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: in Miami, Like you can still play in the cold
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: even though you've only lived in Miami.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: A year or two two.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I grew up in Minnesota.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, why?
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: But yeah, that's like the worst example of Tyreek.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Come on, turry, where's Tyree from?
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I think it gets Where we live now is pretty temperate.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: It gets kind of cold, but god dang, we go
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: somewhere super cool. It hurts. It hurts more than people
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: who live there. I'm taking the Jets too, because the
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: offensive line is heavily improved. If Aaron Rodgers can be
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: a seven out of ten, If Brece Hall, who had
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: to catch a bunch of balls last year because they
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: were always behind, they didn't have a quarterback, Brestall's awesome.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: He doesn't have Let's he two years in, but he
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: was injured for a whole his rookie year. He got
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: hurt like a third of the way through. Brestall's awesome,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: and it learned a vacuum. Everybody's healthy. I'm still taking
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: the Bills.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: I thought you were going to still.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Taking the Bills. But I do think the Jets are
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: gonna be fun and they're gonna.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Win and Miami only because of temperature.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: And Miami's gonna win a bunch of games, but towards
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: the end they're gonna stru They gotta get him a coat.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: How they trying north Face. There's a couple of brands
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: he should really focus on. Team sponsor. Yeah, Kevin you.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm gonna go to Dolphins. I want to go
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: out on a limb here a little bit. The top
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: three is gonna be tough, and then my Patriots gonna
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: be bad. But I'm gonna say the Dolphins, it's the
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: year they take that next step. Two, it takes that
• 17:55
  Speaker 7: next step. He got paid and he's ready.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: What's a success for you as a Patriots fan? With
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: the Patriots, It's taken me some time to adjust. I'm
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: not gonna lie because I think the over under is
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: five games, and I'm like, easily over. And then I
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: look at the schedule last year and I'm like, oh
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: my gosh, I really won.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Four games last year.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: You'll w four games?
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: You cut Bailey Zappy.
• 18:19
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they probably will.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, like, you have two quarterbacks, they both need
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: snaps because you're not really trying to win. I guess
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: unless they're both just so overwhelmed.
• 18:32
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm gonna go with that over under. If we
• 18:34
  Speaker 7: win five games, one more than last year, it's a success.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, so five wins because you have you don't
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: have a quarterback yet, he's so raw loicking.
• 18:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, and you don't have an offensive line and I
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: don't care if he doesn't play at least half the year.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: And Juju don't even jew there anymore.
• 18:51
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Juju, you're gone.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Who's who's gonna get the ball?
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: They got some weapons, Hop, Douglas caj Osboyne, Jalen Polk,
• 19:01
  Speaker 7: Romandre Stevenson. He's a stud but sucks.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah he's good. Yeah, his all line sucks. Yeah, that's tough.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: That's tough.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's the that's the entire AFC. We're gonna take
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: a break, we're gonna come back and get into the
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: NFC right after this. If you're new to the show,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: just a little parlay talk here. You'll hear us go
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: what here's the parlay. So we'll do a little basic
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: because until somebody explained it to me. I did not
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: know what a parlay was. So when we bet a parlay,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: let's say we're gonna make three bets and we say
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: we're gonna take Arkansas to win, We're gonna take LSU
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: to win, and we're gonna take Montana to win. It
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: could be any games. You can have two game parlay,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: three game parlay, but a parlay is multiple games. If
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: all three win, it's like you win even bigger, it's
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: like bonus winnings. But if any one of the three loses,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: you lose the whole bet accurate description perfect. So we're
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: like multiple bets and you're like, well, why why not
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: just bet them all three individually. You can do that,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: or you can ride with us and have an even bonus.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: It's even better if you hit a parlay, like more
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: to it. So we do a parlay every week, and
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: if you want to take the twenty five Whistles parlay,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: you can check out Draftings Sportsbook. They put it up
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: there as well. New users use the code Bobby Sports
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: when you download the app. But that's what a parlay.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: So when we're like we're doing the parlay, it's multiple games.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: If any of the bets lose. Inside the game, the
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: whole bet is lost. But if they all win, you
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: get like a bonus on top of what it would
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: have been if you'd bet on them all individually. Again accurate, Yeah,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: perfect good. New users use the code Bobby Sports when

  Speaker 1: UH probably the weakest division.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: Stuff to pick a winner.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't feel I feel like I am
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: comfortable betting a large amount of sum some of money
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: on who wins this division with your boy.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: You think your boy can do good in Tampa.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Why why don't you pick who you think is going
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: with the division.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Kirk Cousins.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: I would go with two.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: But there is Tampa though, and there is Baker Mayfield, and.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: I would say Kirk Cousins one, and I agree, but
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to pick it and then fight for
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: the other one. It's a weird argument.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: It is weird, but I am going with the Falcons.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: I would say Atlanta has more weapons as well as
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: a more proven quarterback. At the same time, Kyle Pitts
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: might actually be a tight end that can catch some balls.
• 21:52
  Speaker 7: Is this the make or break here?
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: It has to be to be. I've drafted them over
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: your fantasy Drake London like, who's legit? But you can't
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: be legit if you don't get the ball. And Kirk
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Cousins is if if that Achilles is good, and it
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: seems to be, they're going to be a solid, maybe
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: ten win team. I don't. I think ten and seven's
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: probably pretty good number for them to chase. But I'll
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: go Falcons as well. Falcons then Bucks. I think the
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: pant Give me that Panthers over under because I do
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: think they win more games this year for sure than
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: last year. They won two games last year. A little
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: stronger line, and I think hopefully Bryce has grown a
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: little bit. You know, he's fifteen now.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think he's getting taller.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: Oh you under down, Oh dang. I think the Panthers
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: are a little better. I think the Panthers are back in.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: They're in that chase though, a like number one pick
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: again four and a half, same as Patriots. Yeah, I'd
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: probably go over though, because they play up weaker teams
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: in the Patriots generally probably go the over on that one,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: but I would go Falcons, Bucks, Saints Pants. Who are
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: you picking to win it? Kevin?
• 23:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's Falcon's here with Kirk, They're back to get
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: on top. Butt Pendix did look good. He's slinging he
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: did NFC North. This is going to be a super
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: fun division to watch. Yeah, just because of all the
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: stories and all the places the Lions could win the
• 23:23
  Speaker 7: Super Bowl. I don't think they need to actually win
• 23:26
  Speaker 7: the super Bowl for it to be a successful season.
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: I think getting to the super Bowl is that bar
• 23:31
  Speaker 7: for them. They get to the super Bowl, that's big.
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: I want to see that city.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: I think about Detroit though, and God bless them. If
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: they have a great run, they may burn it down
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: in happiness. It's one of those we won, burn it
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: down or we lost. Burn it down. They need to
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: go to the super Bowl, probably even for themselves, for
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: us to feel like that that was a great season.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: We're not talk about super bowlre but feel like it's
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: super Bowl or Bus, not super Bowl winner bus for them.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: The Packers. Jordan Love just got paid. They love Jordan Love.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know who the number one receiver is there?
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Uh yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean they actually have receivers,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: but like who who is the Vikings? I think Sam
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Donald could be pretty good. He's got a good coach,
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks thrive and then the Bears.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun to watch though.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: It's got a big butt, love his butt.
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: Do you think the Bears finished ahead of the Vikings?
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Probably. I think the Bears have too many weapons and
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: the Bears defense is pretty good too.
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: That's a tough one too. That division.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: They all could be yeah, five hundred or better. I
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: have decent expectations for the Bears because they have so
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: many weapons all Kayleb Williams has to do is be
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: pretty good. Yeah, so I'm gonna but I'm still gonna
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: go Lions then Packers. But I think the Bears could
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: possibly win nine or ten games. That's a lot. That's
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: a lot for a rookie quarterback. Though. Oh yeah, Eddie.
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna go with Lions win the division. I mean,
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: they're going to be good again this year, I think.
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: And then and Jordan Love I think is just he
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: ended strong last year. I mean, I think the Packers
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: are going to be good. Unfortunately, I remember that I suck.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: I remember that.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: And then Yeah, I think Bears Vikings.
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: Kevin Yeah, same, same exact order, all Lions all time.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, forty nine Ers, Rams, Seahawks, Cardinals, NFC
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: West Cardinal will be different because Kyler will be back
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: for a full year.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well that matter.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think So. I mean, has there been a
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: new Call of Duty patch put out?
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: It's funny, are we good?
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: New one is coming out?
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: It is thanks for Reid.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: It's not the Seahawks because I don't think Geno's that guy.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: I think Geno is a guy, pretty good guy. I
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: don't think he's that guy though, I think the Rams
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: are going to be stat Wins Daffor is healthy. Man,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: They're really good. And if both if Cooper, Cup and Pookah,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: we're all healthy, right, we're all healthy. We're in the bubble,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: We're in the vacuum. Vacuum.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: That's what.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: I still think.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: It's the forty nine ers, but the r I think
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: the Rams are gonna be really good. So I'm gonna
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: go Niners then Rams, Eddie.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Niners for sure.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: Unfortunately again, Rams, I man, you got Stets and Bennett
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: back there, just in case Garoppolo and Stafford gets hurt.
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: Then then I hey, I love Stet's and Bennett. I
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: only want good things for steps.
• 26:39
  Speaker 7: You know, Jimmy g goes in there. He's not lasting all.
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: Seasons, correct, Okay, And then I'm gonna I mean, I
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: guess Cardinals, Cardinals, and then that's always solid, Yeah, solid.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: I do like Pete Carroll, what.
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: Do you got, Well, he's not there anymore, he's done.
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: No, I just mean like Seahawks like he's like I do, like, okay.
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: Yeah, okaya, mode I got the same as Eddie. Actually,
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna put the Cardinals ahead of the Seahawks and
• 27:06
  Speaker 7: then forty nine Ers to win it and the Rams
• 27:08
  Speaker 7: coming in second.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: NFCS Cowboys, Eagles, Giants, Commanders, easy is it?
• 27:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Simple? Well for you, because Sam, you're talking with your
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: heart not your head. No, no, go ahead, this is
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: this all knowledge. Cowboys want so much contract talk? Yeah, dude,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: what's happening? How do they have it? But again, some
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: of the stuff will be settle by the time this.
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: Air is sure, hopefully. I mean CEDI took all his
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: stuff down social media. He's not a cowboy to social media.
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: Why do they do that? Though, Let's just stop all this.
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: The DAK contract talk is going to be all season long. Yes,
• 27:43
  Speaker 6: but man, i mean watching Trey Lance in the preseason. No,
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: I'm not saying that Trey Lance is the dude, but
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: when he runs with the ball, I'm like, gosh, this
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: is what the Cowboys need, someone that has legs.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: This is the problem with the Cowboys fans because they'll
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: end up with Trey Lance. Yeah, no, that's that's they.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Gotta respect him.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: So Cowboys or Eagles basically is what what it is.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: And obviously you're going Cowboys Cowboys, Kevin.
• 28:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I got Eagles, then Cowboys, then Commanders.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: And Giants.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Giants are gonna be bad.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: Oh Giants. Daniel Tels look pretty good with that beard.
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: So you think the beard is gonna win the conference.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: He looks like a different dude, like neighbors. That means
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: the beard, the neighbors Beard, Neighbors. It's weird that the
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Commanders might actually be pretty good, because the Commanders are
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: just they just suck. I have to take the Cowboys
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: because I bet let's go hundred bucks on the super
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Bowl for twenty thousand.
• 28:37
  Speaker 6: Dude, you think you think you think that old line
• 28:41
  Speaker 6: is gonna be good without Kelsey, They're missing a big
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: part of that old line. And then you're gonna have
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: Hurts running for his life every single play. They're gonna
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: be terrible.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: No offensive coordinator.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't have to learn a whole new scheme,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: like not really okay.
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: Yeah, defensive coordinator for egoys.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they gotta learn a whole new scheme.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: He's the head coach of the Vikings. He's a good dude.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Dude, you're on DC those at the Commanders now.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I know, I know he's gonna be trouble when we
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: go to Washington.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: What do you mean he's gonna be trouble.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Because he's gonna know us. He's gonna know what the
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: d He's gonna know what MacCarthy's doing.
• 29:13
  Speaker 7: I think everybody does.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Now you're talking crap, all right, This is our talk
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: with Jaguars all time leading rusher Fred Taylor. Fred played
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: thirteen seasons after he was selected number nine overall back
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: in the nineteen ninety NFL draft. A lot of people
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: think you should be in the Hall of Fame. I
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: hope he gets there one day, especially because I'm at him.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, that'd be cool.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: I'd be like, I'm at a Hall of Famer. That's
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: really the reason. You can listen to Fred on his
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: podcast that he does with Bryan Clark and Channing Crowder
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: called the Pivot Podcast. Seriously, it was awesome. Here he
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: is Fred Taylor. Whenever you're walking, let's say you're going
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: back to a game, what do you what are the
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: fans yell at.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: You for the most? What do they yeah?
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Or what are they Because we're watching people walk by
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: different athletes and they'll be like intercept shit too, Like
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: what is it that people will scream at you or
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: remember for what they're like kind of get an autograph
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: and they want to share a memory with you.
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, that's a tough one. Because I spent a lot
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: of time in Jacksonville. I'm part of the game day
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: production right there in the stadium. I get all sorts
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: of stuff. I mean, the ninety yarder from Freddy you
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: retired Dann Marino, you know when we beat him sixty
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: two to seven. I love that game, or even the
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: Pittsburgh game from the two thirty four. They're still a
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: killer and the Dolphin killer.
• 30:34
  Speaker 9: And that's cool to have a killer, any killer.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: What's it like to break one?
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: That's like over seventy eighty ninety when you see a
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: lot of green ahead, Like do you in your mind
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: can you outrun everybody on the field the whole time?
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure, Because I would always like something, you know,
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: that was always the easy part for me, Like I'm like,
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: you're in trouble if I get an open I've never
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: been run down, so I wasn't ever worrying about them
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: catching me. And go back to that ninety yard touchdown
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: against the Dolphins and the playoff, which is still a
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: playoff record since ninety nine. I was laughing on my
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: way to the end zone because I know I had
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: Brock Marriyon behind me, the same guy my rookie year.
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: The year before that, I skirted out phone on an
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: eighty yard touchdown on the first playoff Monday night. They
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: never knew how fast I was because I was big.
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: They thought, oh, he's a big guy, he's not that fast.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: Then we get out there, it was lights out, like
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: you weren't gonna catch me. So anytime I got a
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: little crease, I would tell my lineman, just give me
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: a little crease. I would say, look, I'm lubed up,
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: ready to go. I just need a crack. Sorry about that,
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: And you know they bust their butts to give me
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: a crack. And once I get through there, man, one
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: mistackle and I'm out exhilarating, like it's the best feeling ever.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: I was just thinking about how you would run the
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: boxes again. You are a physically you have a very
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: physical present because Jack a big dude. I just wouldn't
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: think that you'd be able to fly like you. People
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: realize you're able to fly on the field at times.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Would some of those guys be like, right, we can't.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: We had no idea you were this fast.
• 32:10
  Speaker 5: So I did on purpose. What I would do is
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: I would go and stand by the biggest lineman so
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: it would make you a smaller look smaller. And then
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: on game day I would run through the defensive backs
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: warm up drill, so when they would see me in person,
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: they would go, whoa this kid, that he's really big,
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: Like I didn't think you were that big. I was six'
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: one to twenty eight when I played. When I was
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: younger four to two, like four to eight. So yeah,
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: that that fast catching catching him off guard a little bit.
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: But my game was I felt like I could do
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: it all.
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: What were you like in high school?
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: I was a one hundred meter guy. I ran one
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: hundred meter like to twelve.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: What size were you in the like twelfth grade?
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: Six feet six one to twelve?
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Was it so like man amongst boys that.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: I was cheating? Yep. I have some games I have
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: three carries for you know, buck fifty, buck eighty, and
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: my coach would take me out. Yeah, try to rest
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: me for the next game. Rare that I would play
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: past halftime.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: What about when you went to college and that's a
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: level jump obviously, was it were you still a bit
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: fast for the game.
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: Everybody's fast then, but I still had elite speed at
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: my size and the position I played out, I just
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: didn't know how dominant I could be, you know. So
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: I would always practice hard, and I would look at
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: my teammates and go, why do they look like they're
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: practicing in slow motion? So eventually the difference became you
• 33:40
  Speaker 5: were ready for the next level and they weren't. And
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: there's no knock on them, but they didn't make it
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: to the next level. And you know, I had some
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: issues earlier on in my college career that sort of
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: you know, minimized my playtime. But eventually I became the
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: demand and coach Sperry trusted in my abilities and he
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: started feeding me to ball more in a passing offense
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: back in those days. And if I had a stretch
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: of a few good games, I was able to parlay
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: that into you know, great workouts for my pro draft
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: day and eventually being drafted ninth overall.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: So the Pivots the podcast, right, yep, yeah, yeah, and
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: it's really cool becaure's a lot of NFL perspective. It's
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: not just you, right, So if people listen to the Pivot,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: what like, what are they hearing.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: What are you guys talking about?
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: What what motivates you guys as ex players to still
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: talk about something like do you feel like your perspective
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: is still fresh and needed or is it more like
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: more like old school like this is how it should
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: be back in the day.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: No, No, it's really just a locker room vibe. Then
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: we kind of you know, integrate like culture and real lifestyle,
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: Like we try to be as transparent and authentic as possible.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: We believe we have a lot of a lot of
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: messages and gyms to share, especially with you know, younger
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: athletes or anybody that's a fan of sport. So sport
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: sort of is what leads people to our doorstep and
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: then the conversation, the things that we talk about in
• 35:07
  Speaker 5: real time. I think those messages are important. The way
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: we highlight and put emphasis on our guests, allowing our
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: viewers and our fan base to really hear from our guests.
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: We learn not to overtalk our guests and let them
• 35:21
  Speaker 5: share their messages and their life experiences. And what people
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: take away from it is a person that's not an
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: athlete or not a celebrity, they go, hey, listen, I
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: go through this stuff but if I see this fan,
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: I mean, are this guests or this celebrity going through it,
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: and they're able to talk about it, they're able to
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: be vulnerable and show us that and we can hear
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: it all, then I'll be okay. So we just try
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: to elevate those conversations and paint certain pictures. Ryan Clark,
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: who you guys recently had on, is amazing as the driver.
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: You know, myself, I look to fill the void. You know,
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: if there's something I believe that lacking or needs to
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: be touched on, then I'll make sure to bring it up.
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: And our third host, Channing Crowder. Channing is the viral
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: moment guy. He's the comedian, the nutcase, the crazy guy
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: on the show. He's going to say something's going to
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: travel around the globe, you know, at light speed. But
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: it's my job to kind of bring Channing back down
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: to the center, and that creates the balance for us. So,
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: you know, much like our mantra, except to just move forward,
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: everybody is going to have their pivotal moment in their life,
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: so we just try to highlight that moment.
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: You play football for so much of your life and
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: then it's over playing football is over.
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: It's time to pivot. Yeah, it's time to pivot.
• 36:40
  Speaker 6: I mean, what's that thought process of when it's over,
• 36:44
  Speaker 6: You're like, oh crap, what am I going to do?
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: You know what? So you have to put in the
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: preparation and the planning before that moment come. Some guys
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: never know when that moment's going to come, so you know,
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: they're just hit with it abruptly. Myself, fortunately I was
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: able to thirteen years. So towards the end of my
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: career as it started winding, now it became you know,
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: an exciting It became a competitive moment for me in
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: my mind, like what's to come? The unknown? Like that
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: excites me. You know, change excites me. So I wanted
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: to make sure I wasn't going to be a statistic
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: like most of the guys that retired within three years
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: of retiring, most guys are eighty seven percent of the
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: guys are either filed for bankruptcy or divorced. I would say, no,
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: it's my challenge not to be one of those guys.
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: So it excited me to be able to pivot and
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: do things to avoid being that. So every guy has
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: a different perspective. But now we're able to with our platform,
• 37:50
  Speaker 5: be able to share that message with these guys, you know,
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: the young guys come on and show. Look, you got
• 37:55
  Speaker 5: to prepare yourself. This is what it's going to be like.
• 37:58
  Speaker 5: That transition is it's tough, you know, not just financially,
• 38:02
  Speaker 5: but from a mental standpoint, because you go your entire
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: life people telling you how good you are, you got
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: the fans. When you don't have that stage any longer,
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: what are you going to do? So these are the
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: different thoughts that we try to share with them. So
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: now they can start putting the pieces together.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: I've pulled this from the collection.
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: Oh that looks like a rookie car?
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Would you? Would you? We're gonna record you signing.
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: You know, I don't. I don't sign rookies. I gotta
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: charge you for this.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: Never mind, hold on, and oh there's the charge.
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: No, I'm just kidding.
• 38:33
  Speaker 5: No, no, it is any anytime I got a black
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: chin strap, that's a rookie car or is that true? Yeah,
• 38:40
  Speaker 5: because the league banned the black chin straps after that year,
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: So since ninety eight? What reason the league reasons?
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: And who knows? They didn't give you that reason?
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: No, you know, but they're a bit more lenient now
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: on a lot of things, and I love it, you know,
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: like the clique thing. You know, when they're able to
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: go and get these the cleek calls for your cleeks
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: for calls and then you can see the cancer cleaves
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: and the you know, sickle cell like different reasons why
• 39:12
  Speaker 5: guys where they're clicking there able to paint them and
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: get the fans in well. I love that. Back in
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: my day, black white, whatever the team issue colors were,
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: that's what you were stuck with, and it was playing
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: and boring. The game now is so exciting. It's so fast,
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: they're scoring a lot of points. The fans that have
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: in a great time, the venues, the stadiums are amazing,
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: So I love it.
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: We appreciate yourselffing by I think chanting is switching out.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: He's gonna hop up. Is he helping them now? But

  Speaker 5: He paid that. You have to read if my signature
• 39:46

  Speaker 1: to La Chargers training camp in early August, and we
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: were facilities and we got to talk to a few players,
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: and we talked to Brendan Rice, the sun of Jerry Rice.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: But I made sure not to ask him any questions
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: about Jerry purposefully smart, like all kids don't like that.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: I wanted to be well. I just everybody asked about
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Jerry Rice, and I just wanted to go. And I
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: led with, Hey, do you mean to ask you any
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: question about Jerry Rice? I didn't. I never bought it.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: He was drafted in the season after spending the last
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: few seasons at USC. He is a beast physically a beast.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: So here's a few minutes with Brendan Rice. Some of
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: these guys that come from Minnesota, Nebraska, wherever they get drafted,
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Like it's gotta be great to tell them how lovely
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: California is all the time.
• 42:05
  Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, it's lovely to be here in California. I
• 42:07
  Speaker 8: mean I came from USC right now, and I guess
• 42:11
  Speaker 8: to be thankful. Man, Like I'm here each day in
• 42:13
  Speaker 8: and day and I'm looking up in the sky and
• 42:14
  Speaker 8: it's seventy degrees all the time, and I'm just like, Wow.
• 42:17
  Speaker 9: I'm blessed. Some of these guys.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: I would walk to the locker room and you know,
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: they got two star, three star and not rated, you know,
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: up on the lockers for a reason. Why do you
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: think that culture has started here with you guys?
• 42:30
  Speaker 8: Honestly, them stars never met anything even coming out of
• 42:34
  Speaker 8: high school. The culture is, we want the nitty gritty guys,
• 42:38
  Speaker 8: the one that's gonna get down and put their fingers
• 42:42
  Speaker 8: down in the mud and go ahead and crawl through
• 42:44
  Speaker 8: the trenches with us.
• 42:44
  Speaker 9: That's all we want. What does coach look for out
• 42:47
  Speaker 9: there in this practice, this far in camp.
• 42:49
  Speaker 8: This feign practice, in this camp, he was looking for dogs, man,
• 42:53
  Speaker 8: He's looking for guys that are really hustling and going
• 42:57
  Speaker 8: ahead and putting forth to effort each day in and
• 42:59
  Speaker 8: day out, and see are you making progress towards your goals?
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: Can you be a dog in this part of camp
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: if you're not hitting each other?
• 43:07
  Speaker 8: Oh yeah, oh yeah, I can physically and mentally dominate
• 43:10
  Speaker 8: you every play.
• 43:12
  Speaker 9: Are you studying before practice? Of course? And what are
• 43:15
  Speaker 9: you studying some of my awards? My fast place?
• 43:20
  Speaker 8: Maybe just like certain how he wants to routes or
• 43:23
  Speaker 8: techniques of other players.
• 43:25
  Speaker 10: In the past.
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: What's been the biggest change with the coaching from where
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: you were last year at USC to here with the Chargers.
• 43:32
  Speaker 8: I would have to say the details are the only
• 43:36
  Speaker 8: things here. Everything matters because at this point in time,
• 43:42
  Speaker 8: time is of the essence in this game is so
• 43:45
  Speaker 8: much faster. The d linemen are getting off the ball
• 43:48
  Speaker 8: so much quicker. You're gonna have to go ahead, get
• 43:50
  Speaker 8: in and out that route. So justin go ahead and
• 43:52
  Speaker 8: put you in the right direction.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: You guys have had practice with the rams already, right,
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: What was that like actually playing against those other guys?
• 43:59
  Speaker 9: You don't practice every single day.
• 44:01
  Speaker 8: I thought the speed was gonna be like a big
• 44:03
  Speaker 8: jump in the NFL, But our coaches have put us
• 44:07
  Speaker 8: in the right position, that the game actually slows down
• 44:10
  Speaker 8: because of how fast we're going to each shit and
• 44:11
  Speaker 8: every day.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Do you have somebody on this team that has been
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: a bit of a mentor to you just in your
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: brief time here, or that you look up to if
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: you have questions about playing in the league.
• 44:20
  Speaker 8: Well, there's plenty of guys. Of course, Herbert even Stick
• 44:23
  Speaker 8: in our all receiver room, josh Palmer, Joshua Palmer. There's
• 44:28
  Speaker 8: plenty of guys, even Derwin James and Khalil Mack. It's
• 44:31
  Speaker 8: just I would like to go ahead and see how
• 44:33
  Speaker 8: they lead so I can go Hey, when my time comes,
• 44:36
  Speaker 8: I can do it in the right way.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: Give me your mount rushmore favorite players growing up when
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: you were watching football, those.
• 44:43
  Speaker 9: Four were your absolute favorite.
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: Julio Jones, Megatron, Davonte Adams, Antonio Brown.
• 44:50
  Speaker 9: All receivers, Larry fitzher Of course, why would I say anything,
• 44:55
  Speaker 9: I don't know.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Maybe there was a question did you always play wide
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: receiver as a kid, or you ever the premier athlete.
• 44:59
  Speaker 9: They wanted to put every were on the field of
• 45:00
  Speaker 9: who I.
• 45:00
  Speaker 8: Was everywhere I was running back, I played lineman, quarterback.
• 45:04
  Speaker 9: Yeah, why who put you in line? Was a dog.
• 45:08
  Speaker 10: I'm sure you were.
• 45:09
  Speaker 9: Oh, I know, I just can't believe they'll put you
• 45:11
  Speaker 9: a lineman.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Kid.
• 45:12
  Speaker 9: You healthy. I really appreciate the time. I have a
• 45:15
  Speaker 9: great shoat. Yeah picks.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Here's day On Henley, second year player, middle linebacker. He'll
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: be starting this year. He played mostly special teams as
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: a rookie. Last year you said Don Henley, no day
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: on day on the Eagle.
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: It's like, oh, he's a training camp cool.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: And really be struggling. So here's that day On Henley.
• 45:36
  Speaker 9: I just saw you tell a kid you had him.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:38
  Speaker 9: I imagine these kids like they lived for this, right.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 45:42
  Speaker 9: Did you ever get to meet the athletes you were
• 45:43
  Speaker 9: a kid.
• 45:44
  Speaker 11: When I was growing up, I definitely met the Shawn
• 45:46
  Speaker 11: Jackson Artabius Bryant, and I think that was like the
• 45:50
  Speaker 11: two biggest.
• 45:51
  Speaker 10: Guys I had met growing up. Of course, I'm probably
• 45:53
  Speaker 10: missing something, but I'm not not at that age.
• 45:55
  Speaker 9: Did you meet de Sean Jackson as a kid.
• 45:56
  Speaker 11: Oh, well, my dad, so my dad, and he has
• 46:00
  Speaker 11: a connection to a lot of people. And Sean Jackson
• 46:03
  Speaker 11: is like from CALLI from Long Beach, so that's not
• 46:05
  Speaker 11: too far for me. I'm from here as well, so
• 46:07
  Speaker 11: that just kind of happened.
• 46:09
  Speaker 9: That's your second camp. This is my second camp going
• 46:12
  Speaker 9: into this.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: How'd you approach it differently than the first time when
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: you went in wide eyed, didn't had no idea.
• 46:17
  Speaker 11: Well, I knew I had like this camp, and I
• 46:19
  Speaker 11: wanted to come in and approach you with the like
• 46:22
  Speaker 11: more intensity, like I wanted more from this season. Like
• 46:24
  Speaker 11: it was just about this camp. I wanted more from
• 46:26
  Speaker 11: this season than last. So I knew that I had
• 46:27
  Speaker 11: to take a different approach.
• 46:28
  Speaker 10: I had to be more.
• 46:29
  Speaker 11: Detailed, more mentally involved, and come with a better physical
• 46:33
  Speaker 11: you know, just stance on everything.
• 46:35
  Speaker 9: When did you start training for this year?
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: So last year ended, you take a break and then
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: how long until you start getting back on it.
• 46:42
  Speaker 11: I mean they say give you the time like by
• 46:45
  Speaker 11: this some rest, but I felt like my last season
• 46:47
  Speaker 11: ended in a way that I didn't want to see.
• 46:49
  Speaker 11: So I mean I gave myself about a week or
• 46:51
  Speaker 11: two before I started to do like little rehabing, you know,
• 46:54
  Speaker 11: like just warm.
• 46:55
  Speaker 10: The body up. But like we didn't know where our
• 46:57
  Speaker 10: coach was.
• 46:58
  Speaker 11: I can't say I was like regularly ready to figure
• 47:01
  Speaker 11: out like what the playbook was going to be but
• 47:03
  Speaker 11: as far as my body, like about a week or
• 47:05
  Speaker 11: two after I started to like take start to take
• 47:07
  Speaker 11: care of myself, like start to get more active and
• 47:09
  Speaker 11: not just be It's not normal for NFL athlete to
• 47:12
  Speaker 11: just sit down and be, you know, stagnant for long.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: Has there been a culture change in the locker room
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: with the new crew coming in new coaches?
• 47:20
  Speaker 10: Oh, definitely, it's lit.
• 47:22
  Speaker 9: What's the difference, Like, what's the day to day difference?
• 47:24
  Speaker 11: I mean, first of all, we are The best way
• 47:28
  Speaker 11: to say it is like we're more detailed, more in depth.
• 47:30
  Speaker 11: I think, like from last year to this year, it's
• 47:32
  Speaker 11: a standard that has to be uphild, and that standard.
• 47:35
  Speaker 10: Is set by the people.
• 47:37
  Speaker 11: One of the best things I've heard so far through
• 47:39
  Speaker 11: all this is like the standard set by the people
• 47:41
  Speaker 11: is not set by the coaches, about the people who's
• 47:43
  Speaker 11: involved in I think we have a pretty good standard
• 47:45
  Speaker 11: right now. It's like, you know, we want to cut
• 47:47
  Speaker 11: drag for meetings. Cut drag meaning like we want to
• 47:49
  Speaker 11: start about five minutes ahead, like you're not late.
• 47:51
  Speaker 10: If you get their own time. But amongst the team,
• 47:55
  Speaker 10: that's no late.
• 47:56
  Speaker 11: I'm saying, like be there, bro, So like that's the
• 47:58
  Speaker 11: type of the mentality we have, like we want to
• 48:00
  Speaker 11: do things the right way, and I think that's just
• 48:03
  Speaker 11: the best way to put it.
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: What was the first time you met coach or was
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: it a big players on all players meeting?
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: Like, how was that instruction?
• 48:11
  Speaker 11: No, the first time I met coach, I was walking
• 48:14
  Speaker 11: through the facility. I knew he had just got hired,
• 48:16
  Speaker 11: so I was hoping to catch him because it was.
• 48:18
  Speaker 10: A whole lot of media going on.
• 48:19
  Speaker 11: I knew he was a busy man, but I had
• 48:21
  Speaker 11: caught him in one of the middle of his pants tugs,
• 48:24
  Speaker 11: you know he do. Like I was walking, I didn't
• 48:26
  Speaker 11: know if it was him, but then he hit one
• 48:28
  Speaker 11: of the I was like, that's my coach, that's my coach.
• 48:31
  Speaker 11: I got to shake his hand, say what's up, and
• 48:32
  Speaker 11: it was We hit it off, man, Like I think
• 48:34
  Speaker 11: he pretty much hit it off with everybody. He probably
• 48:36
  Speaker 11: meant because that's the type of guy he is. But
• 48:38
  Speaker 11: that was a great day.
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Before you go into a game, are you prepared that
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: it's going to hurt the entire time? Like?
• 48:44
  Speaker 9: Is that it? Because I feel like that, I would
• 48:45
  Speaker 9: be like, man, it's gonna hurt the whole game.
• 48:47
  Speaker 11: I mean, no, No, if you're going with that mindset,
• 48:50
  Speaker 11: you might be scared to make some players I want
• 48:53
  Speaker 11: to say, I'd.
• 48:53
  Speaker 9: Rather get hurt, but it hurts no, Nona.
• 48:56
  Speaker 11: You just prepare yourself for what comes next. But you
• 48:59
  Speaker 11: don't ever think about it. If you come out the
• 49:01
  Speaker 11: game feeling great, did you play hard enough?
• 49:04
  Speaker 10: Did you really play hard enough? That's what you gotta think.
• 49:06
  Speaker 11: So you want to go into that game like, no
• 49:08
  Speaker 11: matter what comes at me, I got it, I got it.
• 49:11
  Speaker 10: So you don't want to you don't think about your body.
• 49:12
  Speaker 11: You want to say your body's prepared for anything, Like
• 49:15
  Speaker 11: you want to be prepared for anything that comes at you.
• 49:17
  Speaker 9: Give me your mount Rushmore for players growing up, did
• 49:19
  Speaker 9: you watch that?
• 49:20
  Speaker 12: Were your favorite?
• 49:21
  Speaker 11: Okay, so growing up, I would definitely say Michael Vick.
• 49:25
  Speaker 10: Like just it's Michael Vick.
• 49:27
  Speaker 9: Did you play quarterback?
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: You since you were I'm assuming you're the best athlete
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: in like town, city, stay.
• 49:34
  Speaker 10: You know right here this field best athlete.
• 49:37
  Speaker 11: You know what I'm saying, field, state, whatever car, I'm
• 49:42
  Speaker 11: in whatever house, I'm sitting in whatever couch I'm on.
• 49:45
  Speaker 9: I'm the best athlete.
• 49:47
  Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying.
• 49:47
  Speaker 11: So you know, of course I gotta, you know, watch
• 49:50
  Speaker 11: everybody I was out. Randy Moss was the dopest, like
• 49:53
  Speaker 11: obviously Tom Brady, Michael Vick and who else. I would
• 49:59
  Speaker 11: say Ray Lewis, like those were like my Mount rushmore
• 50:03
  Speaker 11: like those the four guys.
• 50:04
  Speaker 10: It's four heads on my other store.
• 50:06
  Speaker 9: He didn't put the Seann Jackson on there.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: But I love him.
• 50:09
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it was it too much love, like it was
• 50:10
  Speaker 9: too human.
• 50:11
  Speaker 11: Like yeah, I'm saying, like you they say, don't meet
• 50:14
  Speaker 11: try those because like then they become human.
• 50:16
  Speaker 10: I'm at d Jack and like, not only.
• 50:18
  Speaker 11: Did I meet him like he was established, so like
• 50:20
  Speaker 11: it's not even just like the Djack thing for me,
• 50:23
  Speaker 11: It's like that's like my big cousin, So him I
• 50:26
  Speaker 11: got to watch because one, he was legendary, he's golded.
• 50:30
  Speaker 11: But also, I said, Michael Vick, and you know, I'm
• 50:33
  Speaker 11: twenty four, so like my Michael Vick, I barely got
• 50:36
  Speaker 11: any Atlanta Michael big Like I'm saying, like highlights.
• 50:40
  Speaker 9: Egos Michael Vick exactly, so I got to see him
• 50:42
  Speaker 9: go crazy.
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: Last question last year, your first season in the league. Yeah,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: who did you line.
• 50:48
  Speaker 9: Up across from where you had that? All right, I'm
• 50:50
  Speaker 9: about to go hard. But that's freaking cool. I'm lined
• 50:52
  Speaker 9: up across from that dude.
• 50:53
  Speaker 10: I would definitely say.
• 50:57
  Speaker 11: Probably I got to see Leonard Fournett and I was like,
• 51:02
  Speaker 11: it was Leonard Fornett. That's crazy even to even think about,
• 51:05
  Speaker 11: like one of those guys. And then being up close
• 51:09
  Speaker 11: in that like proximity of both Mahomes and.
• 51:13
  Speaker 10: Lamar's like, those are like what I'm saying.
• 51:15
  Speaker 11: You look at those guys and you see what they've
• 51:17
  Speaker 11: done and what they're doing because they're so active.
• 51:19
  Speaker 9: It's like, yeah, I appreciate you.
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: And lastly, it's Dicker the Kicker. Cameron Dicker, Yes, best
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: name in the NFL. Dick or the Kicker, made news
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: a few years ago when he got a call from
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: the Chargers in like an emergency kicker situation and he
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: was going to the Carry Underwood concert and then instead
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: he went and kicked and won the game. Big thanks
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: to camera for joining us here. When a new coach
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: comes in, does that change your anything as the kicker?
• 51:46
  Speaker 13: I think if new special teams coaches. Yes, with new
• 51:49
  Speaker 13: head coaches, there's certain things that they might implement that
• 51:52
  Speaker 13: they tell the special teams coach to do. Most of
• 51:54
  Speaker 13: the time special teams. Coaches have almost full control special teams,
• 51:57
  Speaker 13: and so everything stays the same for me.
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: How did Jumie coacharball with the first time or have
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: you even?
• 52:02
  Speaker 12: Yeah?
• 52:03
  Speaker 13: I have his first might have been his first weekend
• 52:07
  Speaker 13: or second weekend in town. I texted him in the
• 52:10
  Speaker 13: off seasons I was still here and he and I
• 52:11
  Speaker 13: went to church.
• 52:12
  Speaker 9: So that was my first time gating in Huh, how
• 52:15
  Speaker 9: many balls? I have friends play basketball and they get it.
• 52:18
  Speaker 9: Try to get episode amount of shots a day or
• 52:19
  Speaker 9: a week. Is it similar with kickers? Is there a
• 52:22
  Speaker 9: number you try to chase?
• 52:24
  Speaker 12: Try to limit it?
• 52:25
  Speaker 13: So I don't ever really count reps, but I'd put
• 52:30
  Speaker 13: it in the ballpark of like fifty reps on days
• 52:32
  Speaker 13: I kick, and which is twice a week other than
• 52:34
  Speaker 13: game day. So I'll during season, I'll kick Sunday on
• 52:37
  Speaker 13: game day and then do Wednesday Thursday.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: The mental aspect of this is obviously a big part
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: of what you do. Does your heart rate climb during
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: a game and do you monitor your heart rate?
• 52:47
  Speaker 13: I think I don't monitor it. I don't think it
• 52:51
  Speaker 13: really climbs. I think it either stays same or might
• 52:54
  Speaker 13: drop in those moments because I just like to like
• 52:57
  Speaker 13: zone out and get as like mellow as I can.
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: Can you zone out if it's a kick to potentially
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: tie or win the game?
• 53:04
  Speaker 9: Can you separate?
• 53:05
  Speaker 10: Yeah?
• 53:06
  Speaker 9: Is that something you could always do?
• 53:07
  Speaker 13: Something I've been able to do since I was young,
• 53:09
  Speaker 13: So yeah, something I don't know how, but I've just been.
• 53:12
  Speaker 12: Able to do it.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: Is there a difference with a new deep snapper long
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: snapper and one that has been around for a long time.
• 53:23
  Speaker 13: I think just having the stability in his mental side
• 53:26
  Speaker 13: helps a lot, because like everybody's gonna mess up in
• 53:29
  Speaker 13: some way at some point, and so he knows, like,
• 53:32
  Speaker 13: that's not the way I am. They know that's not
• 53:34
  Speaker 13: the way I am. So he's not worried about anything happening.
• 53:37
  Speaker 13: I think just him being able to help me kind
• 53:39
  Speaker 13: of going into new stadiums, being.
• 53:41
  Speaker 12: In Josh and you're thirteen for us, so him being
• 53:45
  Speaker 12: able to.
• 53:45
  Speaker 13: Say, hey, the past is how stuff has gone here,
• 53:47
  Speaker 13: blah blah blah, and kind of walk me through how
• 53:49
  Speaker 13: stadiums work.
• 53:50
  Speaker 12: And all that.
• 53:50
  Speaker 9: Can you shake off and miss pretty quick.
• 53:52
  Speaker 12: Very easily?
• 53:53
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 53:53
  Speaker 13: Make makes and missus I'd say, are gone out of
• 53:57
  Speaker 13: my mind instantly, what was.
• 53:59
  Speaker 9: Your bigges high school kick?
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: Not the longest, but the most important high school kick.
• 54:04
  Speaker 13: We had a game winner, actually a game tying kick
• 54:08
  Speaker 13: I'll say against Sibilo Steel when our quarterback went out
• 54:12
  Speaker 13: of the game and we had our backup quarterback as
• 54:14
  Speaker 13: one of my best friends who went into the game
• 54:16
  Speaker 13: and drove us down the field and I hit a
• 54:18
  Speaker 13: I think it was a forty or fifty yard at.
• 54:20
  Speaker 12: A tire the game.
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: Could you ever play multiple positions and you were also
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: the kicker or when did you start going I'm only
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: dialing in a gay.
• 54:26
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 54:26
  Speaker 13: When I first started playing football, which was in Shanghai, China,
• 54:29
  Speaker 13: I was a left guard and I hated it. I
• 54:31
  Speaker 13: thought the sport sucks, this.
• 54:32
  Speaker 12: Isn't for me.
• 54:34
  Speaker 13: Then we moved to the United States to sixth grade,
• 54:35
  Speaker 13: I only played soccer, and then seventh grade we started
• 54:38
  Speaker 13: playing football again because everybody does in Texas, and I
• 54:41
  Speaker 13: was an alignment again, thought this is awful, and decided
• 54:44
  Speaker 13: I'm just gonna kick. This is not for me again,
• 54:47
  Speaker 13: and so started kicking from there and kicked all the
• 54:50
  Speaker 13: eighth grade and then high school.
• 54:52
  Speaker 12: I told the coaches, I'm not playing another position.
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: I don't want to do this, so you chose to
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: only focus on kicking from eighth grade on?
• 55:00
  Speaker 9: And when did you start.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: To actually play for the high school team?
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: Was it ninth grade?
• 55:04

• 55:06

• 55:08
  Speaker 9: ninth grader in you high school team?
