  Speaker 2: What does the fun I can't go to work without
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: listening to the Mack and Bone to do a lot.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, super excited. I mean he that's a special player, uh,
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: special person. You know, he's been huge for us and
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: you know, being around him a good amount of offseason,
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: I'm just really excited for him. Obviously if I had
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: a ton of success, but you wouldn't know it by
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: the way that he carries himself. He attacks every single day.
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: You know. Again, I'm excited for him. I'm excited for
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: for all of us as a team. And then now
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: his training campus is knocking the door. It's time for
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: us to you know, start the year and start building.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: That is Bryce Young.
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: I feel like I feel like we owed Panther nation
• 1:08
  Speaker 5: on report day for the veterans for training camp. I
• 1:11
  Speaker 5: feel like we owe them a super from Bryce A
• 1:13
  Speaker 5: super excited because I feel like Panther fans are super
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: excited about a team that looks improved.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: Bone off a team.
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: That was a division winner, who gave us an amazing
• 1:25
  Speaker 5: night at the bank, even though we lost in the
• 1:27
  Speaker 5: playoffs and who almost took down one of the best
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: damn teams in the league in the playoffs after being
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: in a regular season, I believe fans are super excited. Oh,
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: we do have this injury, this health situation. We got
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: to discuss though.
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: We will. Do you think Bryce has ever used the
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: word super duper? That's he should go.
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: I feel like he could add he could add the
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: duper this year, you know what I mean.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: I feel like we're due for a duper.
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: That would be amazing if he just trolls everybody he
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: knows with the way we always count his supers and
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: is super excited and he just goes super duper.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: This year to troll us. If we talk to Bryce
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: at camp, I will ask him is he ever thinking
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: about going duper? Would be tremendous man. Anyway, I'm looking
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: at the not de former Dolphins wide receiver.
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: Not to be confused with Mark Duper of the Marx Brothers,
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Mark Duper, Mark Clayton. Yes, I'm an unk. I know
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: that was a long time ago. Young young listeners. We'll
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: see if Canalis YouTube the kids. We'll see if Canalis
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: talks today. I know they'll be player Interview'll see if
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: if Horn talks today. You know about the cut on
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: the foot, that seems pretty minor. Although he won't start camp,
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: he'll start camp on the non football injury list. But
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: the Taylor Moten one is the one that I think
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: we're really wanting to hear from Canalis on over these
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: next couple of days. We're wanting to hear his thoughts
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: about Hey, is it as simple as Monroe Freeling going
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: the right tackle? Are you considering Freeling at left and
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Walker on the right. Somebody said earlier their bet is
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: that stone Foresyth starts game one because Freeling's not ready.
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: Stone forsythe into PFF last year, gave up eleven sacks.
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: I just find I'm like, listen, I don't know, I
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: don't know anything. I don't know anything. I just save
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: that fitting as a drop. But like I would be,
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: don't you think it would be a shocking, a super
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: duper shocking development if your first round rookie gets bypassed
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: for stone Force.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Sets not super or duper. I think the way that
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: stone Forsyth mac plays is if he does the uh
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: behind the wall World Cup er team where he just
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: lays down and maybe guys have to go around him,
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: maybe they trip over him. Yeah, he lays down behind
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: he lays down behind the offensive Arn.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: Oh my god, poor stone Stone. I don't know they're
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: gonna call it the stone Wall defending on Brady's Hellstone
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: could be one snap away now from playing. And that's
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: your point in the first hour is you're not worried
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: about the depth at tackle, but you feel okay about
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: the tackles. I got accused of being too negative, panicky,
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: and a wet blanket in the first hour. Not all
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: one texter. That was three different Texters using those words.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: That's a new name. Because we have the blanket on defense.
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: Now we have the wet blanket on radio.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Y'all know, I don't want to do this bone.
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: I don't know how many I've lost out track of
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: how many Panthers seasons and how many Panthers starts of
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: camp I have been here for. I can't it's over
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: twenty obviously you as well. You know that I love
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: these days. I love the optimism, whether it's warned or not.
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: It feels warned this year. So I don't want to
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: come on and be a wet blanket or a pant
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: What do you call me, panicky Pete. I do worry
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: about is Freeling ready? Is he ready to face Montes
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: sweat in the first game? And I do worry about,
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: like that's the early portion of our schedule, not having Moten,
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: who is so damn solid and by the way, not
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: only a great run blocker or a great pass blocker.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: Every year five sacks allowed total in the last three years.
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: Boney put up his best run blocking grade last year
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: from PFF as well. He had a great season. No
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: one talked about it, and I just he's a calming
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: force when you have a guy like that. Do you
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: of all the worries we've had about the offensive linebone
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: over the last handful of years, that position we've never
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: had to worry about. So pardon me if I get
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: a little panicky. And then I look at the schedule
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: bone and there's some games in there it feels like
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: we really have to win like Atlanta and Cleveland early on.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: Looking at our schedule and how it gets difficult after
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: the bye week, it feels like we got to have
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: a good start to the season. So pardon me if
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: I worry about Moten being out and is Freelin gonna
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: be ready, and I think you could throw in just
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: worrying in general about the trenches with no Icky and
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: Moten and Wharton on the defensive side to start.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Look, he's not ideal, It's not something you sign up for.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: And I will throw at Hi. Robinson also up front,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: no longer on the roster, and that's another aus there.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: They're already trying to replace with Lee Hunter. We anticipate,
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: not ideal, not what we want, especially day one of camp,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: where you know a star player in j. C. Horn
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: and one of your most important guys in Moton are already
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: out of THO. I'm not worried too much about Hoard,
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: I think, Mack. The reason why I'm not going full
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: panic Copeter like you are here is because I do
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: think it could actually be a lot worse if they
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: didn't sign Richard Walker to that friendly deal they got
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: him on, if they didn't drop Monroe Freeling. Oh, definitely definitely.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: So yeah, it's not the best situation, I admit that,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: but I also look at it as old man. If
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: they didn't if they didn't address the line in the offseason,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: this could be an absolute utter disaster. No, I mean,
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: I think that's a valid point. So yeah, said a
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: little bit word. Have Walker do his thing, have mow
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: and do his thing. Yeah, that's what I want. But
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: I also look at it as thank god these guys
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: are here. If not, we would have basically a turnstyle
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: on the recycling bind, playing off at the mine, no offense.
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: It's unfortunately, there's something to be said for that, right
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: is okay, thank god you may the move. Another Texter
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: brings up, thank god Brady Christiansan's coming back and we'll
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: see where he is off the Achilles injury. But maybe
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: he plays a role depth not just on the inside,
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: but on the outside for us. So I think there
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: is It's I guess it's how you choose to look
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: at it, and I'm choosing to look at it, like,
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: does this cost us a game? Early Texter in the
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: seven o'clock hour said, the fact that Mac thinks playing
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: a first round tackle allbeing an inexperienced one, is going
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: to cost us a football game in the first month
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: of the season is laughable. The dude was a first
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: round pick for a reason. Yes he was, but.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: Like was also considered a year away.
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: That's the thing is when he was taken it was
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: seen as he's still were all technique wise, strength wise,
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: he still needs to build up a little bit. So
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: pardon me if I wanted to see him bone have
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: the luxury of sitting. You bring up a valid point too.
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: At least he's there. At least he's there as an option.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: He's gonna get thrown into the fire against some elite
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: guys right away. And while it may suck that he
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: gets beat a little bit here, ultimately I think we're
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: gonna look back and say, yeah, that dude got in
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: there and he had to perform on the right side
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: against some elite guys. Mac. I wonder what the Moten
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: detractors are saying today. By that, I mean Fitty Marlowe
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: is the only one in the city. You don't like
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Motin that much. I forgot all about that. Fiddy is
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: a team O hater, the only one on planet Earth.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: So do you think this is no big deal fit.
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: No, this is worse, This is not ideal.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: And at some point y'all will understand what I've said
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: about Taylor Mutton. He's a really good right tackle. Just
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: never would have paid him as much money as the
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers paid him. That doesn't mean I don't like him.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: The news that I got that we got about him
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: is scary, not just from a football.
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: Aspect, it's just scary in general.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: For his overall head.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: It is, man, That's what I was more concerned about it.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: I'm like you, Mac, because all you care about stand football.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: I didn't. I said the first thing.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I know, you know what, I'm just gonna take pot
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: shows because you you Every time we bring up Taylor Motoni.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: He hates him.
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: He don't like this guy.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: He's a great dude.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: I love that he loves being a Carolina Panther. Just
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: think he's an over paid right tackle.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: That's all.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: With that being said, Mac, this is not good news
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: for an offense that needs to hit the ground running
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: with the new play caller. You're you're, you're You're losing
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: a veteran, a guy that's been there, a really good
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: run blocker, and we need to run the football. We
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: want to run the football. It's not it's not ideal,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: but he's only and guess.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: He's only worth about two million a year though in
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: Fitty's mind, but then we're losing a lot of skillier.
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: Hey, I mean, you are you're gonna give me a
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: blood clot fit to be a brain clot to get your.
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: Back here, though, Fitty, it's not just Fitty that people
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: are like, we're having fun with Fiddy over his moten
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: comments from the past. Uh. There are texters, multiple texters
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: now and I don't even really remember this, that are
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: saying that I mat cursed the health of the offensive tackles.
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: What did I say yesterday? I remember kind of saying something.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: I thought it was more about Freeling. Do y'all remember
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: you said a lot yesterday?
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: It was exhaust you to go back and remember what
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: you said. Boy, that's gonna take a while. It was sad.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: We have entire employees here for that. I know, seven
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: o'clock segment yesterday. Fitty, I don't know if you can
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: find what I'm gonna be, But I felt like it
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: was more like I was afraid I cursed Freeling.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: I think we can't blame that. We can't blame back
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: for blood clots. Anything bad happens.
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: I like you, always trying to find a link between
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: my mouth and somebody's healthy.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: She had these in June. We just said no about it.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: So we have to go back to June to figure
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: out what Max said. I'm leading up to this whole thing.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: Welcome down, says Jeff Hotel was a first round pick.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: How did that work out?
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: I thought when he was healthy he was all right,
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: pretty good, better in the run game than the past game.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: He just couldn't stay healthy. Another texter says, weren't we
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: fine with Icky starting as a rookie? Mac likes freaking
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: out for no reason. I didn't even think I was
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: freaking out, like you'll know. I feel like everybody will
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: know if I'm freaking out, like you'll know a back
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: freak out if you hear it. I feel like it's
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: been a freak out. You think it's been a freak out. No, okay,
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: all right, thank you for that.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: If thank god we said freak out a not freak golf,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: that's a whole other thing that don't take us there.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: This Texas says Max's point about being weakened on both
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: trenches is a legit one. We want to win up front. Yeah,
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: that that's kind of the point I wanted to today
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: to take this to as well? Is are we concerned
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: without Wharton? You mentioned they let Robinson walk. Everybody kind
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: of felt like they kind of replaced his body with
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: Lee Hunter, who we all love here on the show.
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: But there's gonna be pressure now on two rookies in
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: the trenches, one on each side of the ball, to
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: perform right away. Are you worried bone not having Wharton,
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: not having Moten the icky thing I know we've come
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: to terms with. Are you worried about like a team
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: that wants to run, it wants to win in the
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: trenches the way Dan Morgan, you know, and his team's
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: in Carolina. Are you worried about being weakened? At least
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: they're all three gonna come back eventually. But are we
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: worried about the early season trench play? The problem would be, yeah,
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: it's weakened from what we thought. And with this schedule,
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: this conference, you want to get off to a good start.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: And when you have the Bears week one, you've got
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: the Lions in there, You've got a division game against Atlanta.
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: This isn't really a year Mac where I think, based
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: off what we think they can be, the moves that
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: they made, the improving defense. This isn't one of these
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: years where we say, yeah, just you know, find your
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: way through.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: They have to get off to a good start to
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: be the repeat champs in the NFTY South, and you
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: do worry about having Chicago week one Detroit week four.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: You just worry about, Hey, is this gonna take a
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: while to figure things out? And hopefully it's not too late.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: That will be my concern. Yeah, it's just ultimately freeling.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: I don't worry about but you know, early on in
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: the season, I think with rookies, you do got to
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: worry about a ball. I'll just put it. There's no
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: guarantee they're coming out guns of blazing, both of them.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: I feel it could be a Chicago's gonna be a
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: very tough week. Want to bone it.
• 13:12
  Speaker 5: I feel like bone like I picked the Panthers to
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: start four.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: And oh, I don't know if I'm feeling that right,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: I'm just I'm in my head a little bit now
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: about these injuries, A Texter, says Mac Trying to compare
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: the loss of Trevelle Wharton, who might have made two
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: good plays all last season and was hurt the rest
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: of the time to losing your rocket right tackle is laughable.
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: I'm not comparing the impact. Clearly, the impact of losing
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: Moten is bigger. Way bigger than Wharton. I'm just kind
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: of acting like I'm just kind of asking the question,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: like we clearly Bone want to win up front, and
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: we've been weakened up front of both sides of the Paul.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: Now I will say this, I'm way more worried about
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: the Moten situation with our O line at right tackle
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: and is Freeling ready than I am about the front
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: on defense.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: You know, I think Hunter, to me, I have less fear.
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: About is he roll and not ready to I think
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: in the very least in the run game, he's ready
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: to contribute right away.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: You come in with a nickname to fridg you got
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: to be ready to part.
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: So we got a Texter saying Ikey did find his
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: rookie year, and he did. You know, he had a
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: pretty solid rookie year. Actually, his sophomore year Bone was
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: the one where his sacks allowed went up from six
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: to eleven. Early in his rookie year. He didn't start
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: great though. He gave up three of his total six
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: sacks allowed and gave up over in the first two weeks,
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: and he gave up over a quarter of his pressures
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: in the first two weeks. He gave up a third
• 14:46
  Speaker 5: of his pressures allowed all season in the first three weeks.
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: So does that validate my point? Like he was a
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: top ten pick, first round rookie freeling at nineteen. Like,
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: if he plays like that at Ray tackle well in
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: the first three weeks, say if we don't have Moten
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: for the first three weeks. So no, we don't have
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: a timeframe. That's kind of what I worry about there.
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: Ikey had a seventeen pass block grade in his first game.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: Now he could win against a man named Miles Garrett
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: full disclosure, and thank god Miles Garrett's not in Cleveland
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: for that game in week three bone.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: Thank god. Man. I'm trying to I'm looking at some
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: free agents here, former two time All Pro Jack Conklan
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: of the Browns they had Titans. He's still out there,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: he's a free agent now. He had a concussion in
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: week number thirteen. I'm just trying to figure out, is
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: there anyone that they could sign in the immediate to
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: maybe still allow free wing to come along at his
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: own pace. So a guy like Jack Conklin, I wonder
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: if they I wonder if they're going to bring somebody
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: else in. I don't know what level they bring a
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: guy in at but certainly they have to add more
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: depth here now right.
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: And never have too many Conklin's.
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: I do wonder about it, or do they view Brady
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: C like is he healthy enough and able to play?
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: I'll be you're very curious to start a camp. Who's
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: playing right tackle, who's playing left? I think most of
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: us are guessing Freeling on the right, Walker on the left.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: But you could make a case.
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: I know Walker's not very not experienced at all in
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: the NFL at playing right tackle, and he only played
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: twenty nine snaps out in college.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: You can make a case.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: Do you want to put Freeling on the left side
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: and just see if he can handle it and kind.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: Of keep that job when Moden comes. I don't know.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: It's gonna be interesting to see. But also who's getting
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: the reps in debt in depth? And is Brady C
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: getting any reps early because of the Achilles. It's gonna
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: be interesting. We have a Texter bone that suggests you
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: call Mike Remmers. That's JJ is Mike Remmers. Jansen Mike
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: Remmers around Alpha Nation says four and oh was always
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: nuts Mac. Maybe, but I just feel like they've got
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: to get off to a three and one start. The
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: schedule gets really hard Bone after that week five bye week.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, does welcome down. That's why the Abborrean start was
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: those first four games to stack up some dub dubs.
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: Some dub dubs sounds dub dubs, rub a dub dubs.
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: That's what we need right there. That sounded rub a
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: dub dub beat some scrubs walk them down, says God,
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: we're gonna suck you guys have me depressed. I'm not
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: trying to do that. I'm just kind of trying to
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: talk through this situation with not having voting at the start. Listen,
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: I'm just trying to talk through it, y'all. It doesn't
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: mean I think we're doomed, but it it definitely is
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: not the feel good, care free veterans report day Bone
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: that we were expecting to have. And Fitty is right.
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: Prayers out for tailor mote and that's serious stuff, a
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: blood clot and your lung man. So that's that's first
• 17:43

  Speaker 3: All right, Joey.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: First question I have to ask you because I have
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: so many Your job is so different than ours, is
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: when was that moment, like how old were you and
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: what was the moment where you realized, Shoot, I could
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: eat a lot of food and make a living off this.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Oh my god. So they were kind of different. Like
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: I knew early on I could eat a lot, and
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: my mom and my dad they yell at me. My
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: siblings do, so it wasn't something that I was like
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: proud of at first. I was kind of like self
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: conscious of it. And then when I got to college,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: my friends they were like, oh my my god, this
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: is awesome. And then then I was like, so they
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: made me do my first contest. So I was like,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: once I did my first contest, and I was like,
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: oh my god, I get paid to eat. It's wild.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: So for a while, it was like it was like
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: a weekend hobby and then eventually once I was I
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: think it was even after I was champion, I was,
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: I still had a day job working in construction management.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: So I think I gave up my day job when
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: I was like twenty twenty eight, and it just kind
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: of just it's kind of snowballed, and it's got bigger
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: and bigger.
• 20:29

  Speaker 3: event is your on the marque for you. But as
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Max said on the intro, you hold fifty five records.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: What other one of the records that you hold do
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: you think you cherished the most outside of the dogs?
• 20:49

  Speaker 2: Hard World Eggs. It's a I mean, I grew up
• 20:54

  Speaker 3: That's a hell of the question.
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: What would that whatever it's going to be, I have
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: a feeling you could pull. We had a guy, Joey
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: that texted the show. It said, it's him and four

  Speaker 2: Oh that's pretty awesome. I think that that is pretty wild.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: The four guys who do ninety ninety that that'd be
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: every minute. Joey, Oh my god, those guys are animals.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: If Joey Chessa's calling you an animal, then John Hey,
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: Mack and I here whenever we talk about food and
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: condiments and hot dogs like I I had, I like
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: my hot dogs rather plain, only catch up. I think Mac,
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: you are mustard and catch. Yeah. So we get ripped
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: all the time for being very plain. Do you do
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: you put down on us, Joey for the plainness of
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: the dogs, or and what do you like on your dog?
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: On a regular dog, not what you're doing at Coney
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: Island or in the competitions.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: I can never talk tracks about how people eat, what
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: what people put on their hot dogs, because I during contest,
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I'm dunking buns and water. So it's as long as
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: as long as you're eating hot dogs, you're okay. But
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: in my book, I I love uh dude, I'm I'm
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: a mustard kind of guy. I love raw onions also
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: if I can get them. Uh, it just is very
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: low calorie, so I don't feel guilty about adding more
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: stuff on there. Uh. But yeah, dude, you put whatever
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: the heck do you want on a hot dog. This
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: is Uh, these people will just being super judgy.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: I'm down with that you feel good about it? Is?
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: How is the is the water the bun dipped in water?
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Because I think that's the part that because some Joey,
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: I'm amused by you and the hot dog eating, Like,
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: I just think it's kind of.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: Funny what you're doing.
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: It's crazy, right, It's also impressive in a way where
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: it's like most of us can't do that. But there
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: are some people I'm sure you've heard of this, that
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: are just like that's gross, and but I think it's
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: the buns dipped in water?
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: Is that was that gross to you?
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: Like, at least the first time, was that nasty, Like,
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: how does that because that look that does look like
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: the roughest part of it.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: You're absolutely right, it's terrible. I hate that I have
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: to do it. It's competition, but it's competition, and it's uh
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: that's what really separates the competition from pleasure eating. You
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: have to it makes it a little bit faster. It's
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: it takes the air out of the bun, makes it
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: easier to swallow. Using the warm water helps helps bring
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: it to the bottom in your stomach, and just it's
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: I when I started doing the contest, I tried to
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: do it without dunking, and it was just clear that
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: the dunking was a little bit faster, especially if the
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: buns are been sitting down out in the sun at all,
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: and then they're like super stale. Even if you dunk them,
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: it doesn't quite work right. But uh yeah, yeah, then
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: that was July. The buns are always they're they're rough,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: and uh, it's just so much faster, And then that's competition.
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: That's why you're a beast.
• 27:17
  Speaker 5: Though you ain't gonna be denied no matter how nasty
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: it is, You're going You're gonna win.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: And now it's eighteen belts.
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: All right, real quick, before we let you go, these
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: are some questions that I got to ask you while

• 32:03
  Speaker 5: him as an athlete, Fitty morlow How dare you?
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: It's not easy, but someone has to say the truth,

  Speaker 5: work on his jaw strength on the regular?

• 32:45
  Speaker 5: to do. See this great?

  Speaker 3: spoken in Joe Person's fans survey in the Athletic what
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: are the most interesting answers from the Panther fan base?
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNG. I don't know about y'all,
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: but I love some bilingual p in my life.
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: On that doctor Ted Green spot where he just shows
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: his Spanish, just flexus his bilingual talents.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: Now that more do you want to full? What more
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: do you want to? Man?
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: On? This guy's versatile. Man, this guy's versatile. Now he's
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: probably furious with us after the last segment. Wow, And
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: so the dry brisket humor. It's a dang text line.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: Pe.
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: They put us up to this stuff.
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: Man, it's crazy Willie Pe to talk about Charlotte FC,
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: you know, returning in the pitch tonight at home at
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: the bank, big rivalry game. Get on out there and
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: hang with us tonight. We're going, Fitty and I go
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: be out there for this one eight twenty five. Start
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: a little bit later than usual. It is on FS one.
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: In addition to Apple, we also got to talk to
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: p about the big news, the Taylor Moton health situation
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: and how worried the P man is about that. I
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: want to do some Panther talk here Bone as the
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: boys are reporting this morning. The veterans are reporting in
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: Panther camp, and there should be some good media coverage,
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: some good Q and A's Bone later.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: In the day.
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: Maybe we'll get some more answers on this Tailor Moton situation.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: I want to spend a little time going through the
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: results of this Joe person survey. Fitty and I, when
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: you were going last week, we filled We filled our
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: entry out live on the air. We went through the questions,
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: fitting and I kicked it around and we went through
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: kind of how we would answer these fans survey questions
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: Joe Persondeathletic dot com. They do this every year. Well,
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: now we got the results, and it honestly does feel
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: like Fitty. Most of our answers seem to be the
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: answers the fans have gone with. For example, Bone as
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: here's a questions as the Panthers mall and extension for
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Bryce Young they offer him a contract that puts him
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: among the The number one answer was top fifteen. Now
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: I think Fitty wanted to go top fifteen, so we
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: went top fifteen. I was say, in top twenty, would
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: you say that Bone? One of the answers is top
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: ten highest paid qbs. Another one is don't extend him
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: right now?
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: I would say, I would say, can I say top
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: fifteen to twenty like that in that neighborhood?
• 37:59
  Speaker 5: Like that's what I would That would then be top
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: twenty then yeah, true, But we're all in that same area,
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: like top seriousness he fell in at seventeen eighty somewhere.
• 38:09
  Speaker 5: I think we're all in that area fifteen seventeen eighteen
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: night like it's worth a shot. I don't think Bryce
• 38:15
  Speaker 5: would sign it, but I feel like us on this
• 38:18
  Speaker 5: show Panther fix because because twenty percent or top twenty
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: was the second answer, it was forty six percent, Top fifteen,
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: top twenty was thirty four percent. Again, you could see
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: all these results. See how your fellow Panther fans are thinking.
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: At Theathletic dot Com who will be You can probably
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: guess some of these answers boned. I don't even know
• 38:37
  Speaker 5: if you need the options on this one. On the
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: multiple choice who will be their biggest breakout player in
• 38:41
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty six?
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: Who you think won that one? Gordon?
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: Yep, Nick Gordon thirty four percent, and he's the guy
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: that we said as well. Brooks and Cocher were the
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: next two choices. All three of those guys breaking out
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: would be beautiful.
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: What rookie is gonna Hooker's kind of broken out already
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: in his own way.
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I still think though his stats, like how
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: many yards did he end up last year with Bony
• 39:06
  Speaker 5: I know I'm putting you on.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: The spots five hundred or is that not? Or three
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: hundred something? Right?
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: It was three hundreds. He didn't play that much and
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: obviously had a huge playoff game. I'm trying to get
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: to the answer I have to verify him human on
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: Pro Football Reference right now? Is that not annoying? Verify
• 39:25
  Speaker 5: you're a human. Oh my god, it's making me reverify
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: I'm a human. These things are annoying. It's a fair question.
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: Three undred ninety four yards regular season and then went
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: over one hundred in the postseason. Yeah, the real I
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: would say bone if he puts up nine hundred receiving
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: yards or eight fifty or eight hundred. But that's a
• 39:42
  Speaker 5: bit of a breakout, right But anyway, s Gordon to
• 39:45
  Speaker 5: make a short story long, Bony Nick Gorton was our answer.
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: He was the fans answer. He was your answer.
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: Who do you think the fans voted for for which
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: rookie will make the biggest impact? This was before the
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: Moton injury too. That would be Lee Hunter.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: Lee Hunter.
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: Freeling was the second choice. Change now Freely was the
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: second choice if they did the voting. Now, Freeling may win,
• 40:06
  Speaker 5: may win that. Let's see here who will be the
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: next Panther player to get a contract extension? Excluding Bryce Young?
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: The the options where Luke Fortner, Rashid Walker, Icky Trayvon Merrigg,
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: Damian Lewis, and Mike jack.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: Uh For that I would say Mike Jack.
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: Mike Jack was the most popular answer at thirty eight percent.
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: Sign Marria just signed a deal, right, He's got only
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: one year left after this, He's only one. DLU has
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: only one year left. Dlu and Merrick after this season
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: get extensions like.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: Well, the stress for next season.
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: But do you like I guess they could still sign
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: Mike Jack. We see a lot of times the extensions
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: get done in training camp, so maybe they could still
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: sign Mike Jack to an extension. I'm kind of losing
• 40:52
  Speaker 5: faith that they're really trying though.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: That's a question for Dan Morgan already paying Horn a
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: hefty sum, and Merrick is gonna get paid all also
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: back there, So you wonder if they're hoping maybe a
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: guy like a Will Lee maybe takes over, or someone
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: on the cheaper rookie scale perhaps rather than day two
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: corners and Mark does make you wonder. Man, let's see here,
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: who will be the starting left tackle at the end
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: of the season. Who do you think they voted for? There?
• 41:20
  Speaker 5: Walker Freeling sixty for these people know, hopefully not right
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: tackle at the end of the season. Hopefully Moten is
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: playing well before the end of the season, let's see here,
• 41:32
  Speaker 5: who will emerge as a top backfield compliment to Cuba.
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: I mean that's obviously Brooks. Yeah, eighty percent Brooks. That
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: was a no brain. Again, this is the athletic poll.
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: I want to keep giving Joe person and the athletic credit.
• 41:44
  Speaker 5: We did not do this poll. We were too lazy.
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: Joe actually did it. I also don't understand technology of
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: doing polls bone other than a pole question on Twitter.
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: Joe understands it. So anyway, the athletic you've watched pole
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: d answers when you were younger.
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: Never that was that never occurred. Let's see here, what's
• 42:03
  Speaker 5: your biggest era of this one's surprising? What's your biggest
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: area of concern during training camp? Is it running back depth,
• 42:10
  Speaker 5: off ball, linebacker, tight end room, pass rush or QB play?
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: You said it's a surprising result. Is it QB play?
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: QB play thirty three percent? How many times be Bob vote?
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: But we wanted Bryce paid on one of the questions, Yeah,
• 42:29
  Speaker 5: they wanted him top fifteen or top twenty offer. But
• 42:32
  Speaker 5: then thirty three percent said QB play, twenty three percent
• 42:35
  Speaker 5: said pass rush. How is running back depth only at
• 42:38
  Speaker 5: seven point four percent?
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: What was tight end, debt, tight end?
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: Point tight end was third twenty percent, Maybe the ball linebacker.
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: Fourth was we had never worried about the whole room
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: and not just Bryce. Maybe can he Pickett? I guess
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: that feels like a direct shot at Bryce. Man to me,
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: I don't think fans would do that. Man the world,
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: they wouldn't do that.
• 42:56
  Speaker 5: Fitty scoffing. That got a that got like three scoffs
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: from you, Fitty, you ain't.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: Happy, triple scoff.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, was not prepared for that to be that answer,
• 43:04
