Mike Evans Appeal Denied, Jaguars-Chargers Match up for Week 3, & Rod Woodson Interview · NFL Now

0:05
Speaker 1: NFL now is a production of the NFL in partnership
0:08
Speaker 1: with I heart radio. It's NFL now, NFL network. We
0:19
Speaker 1: welcome you to our newsroom in Los Angeles. My name
0:22
Speaker 1: is Andrews Siciliano. There is a lot going on coming
0:25
Speaker 1: up this hour. We're gonna have the head coach of
0:28
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas xfl franchise here and he's also hall
0:32
Speaker 1: of Famer. Ron Woodson, his eight football life debuts on Friday.
0:37
Speaker 1: Look forward to that conversation. Also, Joe Burrow is taking
0:40
Speaker 1: twitter and instagram off his phone. Should you just thinking
0:43
Speaker 1: out on that one? We begin with the Mike Evans News.
0:46
Speaker 1: Kind of, sort of. As expected, he is still very
0:49
Speaker 1: much suspended for his role in what the League says
0:54
Speaker 1: really was the instigator in this fight between the bucks
0:57
Speaker 1: and the saints this past Sunday. Appeal denied, suspension upheld.
1:04
Speaker 1: So the bucks have some legit wide receiver questions as
1:07
Speaker 1: they get ready for the Green Bay packers come into
1:10
Speaker 1: town week three on Fox on Sunday afternoon and rappaport
1:13
Speaker 1: and Mike Garret Folo here our insiders this hour on
1:17
Speaker 1: NFL now. It was James Thrash, Mike, who said once again.
1:23
Speaker 1: Mike Evans, you're suspended. Yes, James Thrash back in upheld
1:29
Speaker 1: US suspension. James Thrash one more time, upholding a suspension
1:32
Speaker 1: from Mike Evans, who will now be unavailable for the
1:35
Speaker 1: game against the Green Bay packers, a game that could
1:38
Speaker 1: be very meaningful in the NFC. We may look back
1:41
Speaker 1: and say, Hey, when the packers beat the buccaneers back
1:44
Speaker 1: in week three, that's the reason that a potential playoff
1:46
Speaker 1: game is in Lambou instead of Raymond James and Mike
1:49
Speaker 1: Evans wasn't available. I know I'm projecting here. I'm just
1:52
Speaker 1: saying that this was a big decision by the NFL
1:55
Speaker 1: and by James Thrash who, let's remind folks, is jointly
1:58
Speaker 1: appointed by the NFL and the NFL Players Association. I
2:01
Speaker 1: saw a statement out there from Mike Evans agent, Derek Gilmour,
2:04
Speaker 1: who was very frustrated with the decision and the fact
2:07
Speaker 1: that it was upheld. He said the league upheld it. No,
2:09
Speaker 1: the League didn't uphold it. The League, Uh Levy the
2:12
Speaker 1: initial suspension. James Thrash, jointly appointed by both the League
2:17
Speaker 1: and the Union, upheld the suspension. It's a very important
2:20
Speaker 1: point there. But regardless, I know Evans is frustrated because
2:23
Speaker 1: he feels like, in his representation, feels like other players
2:26
Speaker 1: have done worse and not been suspended. The fact that
2:29
Speaker 1: he was ejected should have been enough of a punishment.
2:32
Speaker 1: In this case, both the League and James Thrash deciding no,
2:35
Speaker 1: that wasn't good enough. One more game for Mike Evans. Alright,
2:40
Speaker 1: so Mike Evans, one more game. He's gonna get suspended.
2:43
Speaker 1: He's gonna miss the game here coming up against the
2:47
Speaker 1: Green Bay packers on Sunday. Let's get to another team
2:49
Speaker 1: wearing green here, Ian Rappaport those would be the jets.
2:53
Speaker 1: They are one and one after beating the Browns, they
2:55
Speaker 1: get the bengals this week and if somehow they can
2:57
Speaker 1: beat the reigning a F C champions, they would be
3:01
Speaker 1: above five hundred through three games for the first time
3:05
Speaker 1: since twenty true story is Zach Wilson helped right around
3:10
Speaker 1: the corner. I thought it was gonna be longer. He
3:13
Speaker 1: kind of the build up there. I thought it was
3:15
Speaker 1: gonna be like since nineteen years. We're only talking about
3:21
Speaker 1: three games, like they haven't won two out of three
3:22
Speaker 1: to open the season. In seven years. Yeah, I just
3:26
Speaker 1: expected more. Anyway, let's get to the jets and Jack Wilson,
3:29
Speaker 1: because the expectation is is that you used it. Don't
3:33
Speaker 1: put their research under. The expectation is that Zach Wilson
3:37
Speaker 1: is expected to ramp up this week. The a little
3:40
Speaker 1: seven on seven last week. Gonna do more this week,
3:42
Speaker 1: coming back not just from a meniscus but from a
3:45
Speaker 1: bone bruise as well, and the two injuries made it
3:48
Speaker 1: more complicated for him and forced him to get off
3:50
Speaker 1: his feet and just took a little longer. Six weeks
3:53
Speaker 1: was from surgery. was expected to be the time when
3:56
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson would be able to go out there with
3:58
Speaker 1: no risk to himself. That is coming. So if he
4:02
Speaker 1: makes it through this week, all good. I would expect
4:04
Speaker 1: him to practice fully next week and the imposition, assuming
4:08
Speaker 1: they take in the imposition, to start in week four. Yes,
4:11
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson not playing football to start the season Ian
4:14
Speaker 1: for the first time since nineteen ninety nine. I don't know,
4:17
Speaker 1: I'm just that's the year he was born. By the way,
4:19
Speaker 1: we were nineteen years old at the time. You and I.
4:21
Speaker 1: I mean that makes me feel really old, but I'm
4:23
Speaker 1: just trying to throw a date out there that would
4:26
Speaker 1: impress you. That's what this is all about for Zach Wilsoneah, young, young,
4:31
Speaker 1: since you're we did the math on your age last week.
4:35
Speaker 1: Moving on, it's not doing again. I'm just saying when
4:38
Speaker 1: you say how old we are, it's how young we
4:40
Speaker 1: are in comparison. Uh No, but Zack Wilson just being
4:44
Speaker 1: available the last couple of weeks and practicing while he
4:47
Speaker 1: was not playing was key. There were some things that,
4:50
Speaker 1: you know, he needed to brush up on. There were
4:52
Speaker 1: some rough patches in the spring and training camp, so
4:55
Speaker 1: this was a good way to get him involved, keep
4:57
Speaker 1: him involved while getting ready. So let's see how Zach
5:00
Speaker 1: Wilson plays when he gets back out there. They need
5:02
Speaker 1: him to hit the ground running, even to build some
5:04
Speaker 1: confidence in certainly improved on some of the numbers from
5:07
Speaker 1: a year ago. NOT SINCE ONE IAN has Zack Wilson
5:11
Speaker 1: played in all, actually, probably two in January, a meaningful game.
5:15
Speaker 1: So not since earlier this year. Ian. Okay, I just
5:18
Speaker 1: want to apologize to Lo Quantum. There's doing a great
5:20
Speaker 1: job in research. I was just, you know, cracking a joke.
5:24
Speaker 1: Let's get to the titans, because offensively. They have um
5:28
Speaker 1: not been doing such a great job. I've been opening
5:30
Speaker 1: drive was nice on Monday night, but then after that nothing.
5:32
Speaker 1: What Mike Rabel have to say yesterday, Mike About about
5:35
Speaker 1: his staff? Mike Brabel standing by his guys. Now I'm
5:40
Speaker 1: just looking this up here. The offensive rank for this team.
5:43
Speaker 1: Twenty eight in points right now, twenty nine in yards.
5:46
Speaker 1: Last year fifteen and seventeen. The year before when they
5:49
Speaker 1: had Arthur Smith, ranked four in points, two in yards.
5:53
Speaker 1: But Mike Rabels, saying we're not going to make these
5:55
Speaker 1: changes right now, still believes in his coaching staff. An
5:57
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, Todd Downing. Look, they've just made some mistakes
6:02
Speaker 1: going along here, whether it's been penalties or mental miss
6:05
Speaker 1: stakes or whatnot, that I took him out of the
6:07
Speaker 1: Buffalo Game. There there was a time early in that
6:09
Speaker 1: game I don't wind up being a blowout, but they
6:11
Speaker 1: were kind of hanging in there and I said this
6:13
Speaker 1: game is kind of going the way the titans wanted
6:15
Speaker 1: it to go, and all of a sudden the wheels
6:17
Speaker 1: fell off. So rabel going back and saying well, we
6:20
Speaker 1: liked the plan coming in, we liked the execution in
6:22
Speaker 1: both games. Early we've just got to continue it through
6:25
Speaker 1: fourth quarters, through four quarters, excuse me. So that's why
6:28
Speaker 1: Rabel standing by his coaching staff right now saying there
6:31
Speaker 1: will be no changes, but if the struggles continue, Jack
6:34
Speaker 1: Back Andrew. Yeah, and the fact that you know, reporters
6:38
Speaker 1: are already asking about the status of the offensive coordinator,
6:41
Speaker 1: Todd Downing, not a great sign. Clearly need to write
6:43
Speaker 1: it pretty quick. But there's also so much of those
6:45
Speaker 1: going on here, much more so than the offensive coordinator
6:48
Speaker 1: of Ryan Tannehill, who is, you know, I would say,
6:50
Speaker 1: struggled a little bit in the first couple of games.
6:52
Speaker 1: You Have Malik Willis, the rookie who impressed every one
6:54
Speaker 1: of the preseason, just waiting there. You also have a
6:57
Speaker 1: team that traded a true number one receiver and a
7:00
Speaker 1: J Brown, who ended up getting paid a huge sum
7:02
Speaker 1: of money from the Eagles and then drafted to who
7:05
Speaker 1: they always replacement, trailing Burke's who has been impressive but
7:08
Speaker 1: hasn't exactly been what Aj has been just yet. Seems
7:11
Speaker 1: to be a team maybe in a little bit more
7:12
Speaker 1: of a transition than we realized. You know, at the
7:16
Speaker 1: outset right Um, without a J Brown, they are playing
7:20
Speaker 1: a different style of football, if you take away Derrick Henry,
7:23
Speaker 1: which is obviously far easier said than Mike quickly here
7:26
Speaker 1: in Washington. What a what a great scene today on
7:30
Speaker 1: the practice field for the commanders. Bryan Robinson back to
7:34
Speaker 1: practice for the first time. We're listing him knee and
7:37
Speaker 1: hip injuries there. As you see on your screen, it
7:39
Speaker 1: was that bullet that went through his knee when he
7:42
Speaker 1: was shot in an attempted robbery in Washington d C
7:45
Speaker 1: right before the start of the season, a season that
7:48
Speaker 1: we expected to be a big rookie season for the
7:52
Speaker 1: young man who was so impressive during the summer looked
7:54
Speaker 1: like he was destined to be the commander's starting running back.
7:57
Speaker 1: Still might, still might be soon. I know they had
7:59
Speaker 1: targeted right around week five potentially for his return as
8:03
Speaker 1: he works his way back. So let's see how quickly
8:06
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson can get up to speed. Remember that bullet
8:08
Speaker 1: that went through his knee. Very fortunate that it avoided
8:11
Speaker 1: all of the major parts of his knee. That could
8:14
Speaker 1: have resulted in major structural damage. Brian Robinson, very fortunate
8:18
Speaker 1: continues to stick to the timeline that we talked about.
8:20
Speaker 1: That may have seen overly optimistic, but he's on it
8:23
Speaker 1: right now. Back on the field today and Ashburn on
8:25
Speaker 1: what the team announced is now known as the Ortho
8:29
Speaker 1: Virginia Training Center at Ashbourn, Virginia. Brian Robinson on the
8:33
Speaker 1: field at said training center. Thank you, Mike. Thank you.
8:36
Speaker 1: I sweeping lipside touchdown, your chop. I'm gonna striped at
8:46
Speaker 1: the thirty hunt flaps three touchdown. He's got two of
8:53
Speaker 1: the flat pass touchdown. MOGY, Harris, miles killen buried him. Man,
8:58
Speaker 1: even a cringe UN back don't to feel good. Browns
9:05
Speaker 1: and steelers always feels good, especially if you're a steelers fan.
9:09
Speaker 1: If you're browns, paying kind of anxious this week. But
9:11
Speaker 1: it's prime time tomorrow. It's the Browns, it's the steelers,
9:14
Speaker 1: it's the A F C and eorth it's in Cleveland.
9:16
Speaker 1: It's the steelers trying to get their offense rolling as well.
9:19
Speaker 1: There's that. Often times when you're in Thursday night ball,
9:24
Speaker 1: you lean heavily on those things. But I would imagine
9:27
Speaker 1: you know, all thirty two teams are still very much
9:29
Speaker 1: in development in those areas and so that makes Thursday
9:32
Speaker 1: night more challenging. It makes Thursday night more challenging from
9:35
Speaker 1: a decision making standpoint in terms of what it is
9:38
Speaker 1: that you want to do, and it makes it more
9:40
Speaker 1: challenging in terms of being able to anticipate or or
9:43
Speaker 1: have an appropriate level of readiness or what's your opponent.
9:45
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about mistakes, Um, you all. I do
9:49
Speaker 1: think about protecting the football and being smart and making
9:51
Speaker 1: good decisions. Not Worried about mistakes. That's happening, Um. But
9:55
Speaker 1: as an offense, we just gotta score more points. So
9:57
Speaker 1: how would we do that? That's that's gonna be our mindset.
9:59
Speaker 1: Score more points. Yeah, he's a really good quarterback and
10:02
Speaker 1: I saw him a lot when I was in Minnesota
10:03
Speaker 1: and he was in Chicago. He's very, very athletic. I
10:06
Speaker 1: mean he can really move around, make plays with his feet,
10:09
Speaker 1: he can take off and run and he can throw
10:11
Speaker 1: while scrambling. So I think they do a nice job
10:13
Speaker 1: of utilizing has athleticism. Uh, they have skill players really
10:18
Speaker 1: all over the field outside inside. That can hurt you.
10:22
Speaker 1: Skilled players who have not made a lot of big
10:25
Speaker 1: plays so far. Tom Pellicero, Bucky Brooks with me now
10:28
Speaker 1: to a little t and F conversation here. Tom Start
10:31
Speaker 1: with you you are in Cleveland, where a lot of
10:33
Speaker 1: the talk this week. When they're not talking about booze
10:35
Speaker 1: or whether or not Nick Chubb should have gone down
10:37
Speaker 1: on the one yard line, it's the busted coverages. You
10:40
Speaker 1: had him against Carolina, Baker Mayfield a couple of big
10:42
Speaker 1: plays there in the second APP and you had that
10:45
Speaker 1: just stunning defensive breakdown as well, and the Corey Davis
10:49
Speaker 1: touchdown of the fourth quarter. You were there for that.
10:51
Speaker 1: What are they saying about how to fix that? Well, Andrew,
10:56
Speaker 1: you're right. There are a lot of things that went
10:57
Speaker 1: wrong that allowed the jets to claw their way back
11:00
Speaker 1: from down thirteen the final two minutes, but the busted
11:03
Speaker 1: coverage on Corey Davis, is long touched down, was a
11:05
Speaker 1: huge part of it and it's now a repeat era error.
11:08
Speaker 1: I've talked to linebacker Anthony Walker JR yesterday. He had
11:11
Speaker 1: been kind of in a state of shock after the
11:12
Speaker 1: game on Sunday. Put It on himself for not communicating
11:15
Speaker 1: the calls, and I asked him short week, have you
11:17
Speaker 1: really had time to talk among the players about how
11:20
Speaker 1: we're gonna clean this up? He said yes, and it
11:22
Speaker 1: really it just is about communication here. Whether that is
11:25
Speaker 1: from him in the in the huddle, whether that is
11:28
Speaker 1: along the defensive backs. Everybody's got to do a better
11:30
Speaker 1: job communicating. It's one of many things that they're trying
11:33
Speaker 1: to clean up in a week where you heard Mr
11:35
Speaker 1: r Bisky say it himself. Do you think that he
11:37
Speaker 1: thinks there are opportunities for them to push the football
11:39
Speaker 1: down the field more than they have been, especially to
11:41
Speaker 1: George pickens sucking? You know, the number more thing that
11:44
Speaker 1: you can do to eliminate some of that is to
11:46
Speaker 1: simplify play, basic coverages, things that are what we call
11:50
Speaker 1: day one install coverages. Until the defensive backs no one job.
11:53
Speaker 1: Just don't let the ball flow over your head, keep
11:55
Speaker 1: the ball in front. Do those things. To me, it
11:57
Speaker 1: is something that you can't clean up in a short week,
12:00
Speaker 1: but it takes the coordinator and the defensive back coaches
12:03
Speaker 1: to be on the same page. Hey, well, let's do
12:05
Speaker 1: was best for the players. Let's make sure these guys
12:07
Speaker 1: on the same page and as they get confident doing
12:09
Speaker 1: the small things, then we can start building it out
12:12
Speaker 1: as we get later into the year. What's so frustrating,
12:14
Speaker 1: as Tefanski basically said, we told him on the sideline,
12:17
Speaker 1: nothing's getting over your head. You can't do it here
12:19
Speaker 1: and then it happens again. Okay, that said, let's get
12:24
Speaker 1: back to the steelers here Tom and their offensive struggles here.
12:28
Speaker 1: How do they get Naji Harris Rolling this week? What
12:30
Speaker 1: are they saying about that? That's a great question, h Andrew,
12:35
Speaker 1: because at this point Naji Harrister two games, carries for
12:39
Speaker 1: seventy two yards. That's simply not the formula for the
12:41
Speaker 1: steelers to have success on offense. Now, remember Naji has
12:44
Speaker 1: been dealing with a foot issue since back in the
12:47
Speaker 1: preseason and in training camp he banged it up again
12:50
Speaker 1: in week one. You have to wonder to what extent
12:53
Speaker 1: are they being cautious right now with Naji Harris in
12:55
Speaker 1: terms of how much workload they're giving him now, coming
12:59
Speaker 1: up on a short week, how quickly is he able
13:01
Speaker 1: to respond physically here? We'll find out on Thursday night.
13:04
Speaker 1: But as much as focused as there is on Mitch
13:06
Speaker 1: travisky and whether to what extent they potentially could make
13:09
Speaker 1: a quarterback change, knowing how well rookie Kenny Pickett played
13:12
Speaker 1: in the preseason, this offense, Bucky, is built around being
13:15
Speaker 1: able to run the football. With Naji Harris and they
13:17
Speaker 1: simply haven't done it enough or effectively enough. Yeah, time,
13:22
Speaker 1: you're right. This team has to run the football, because
13:24
Speaker 1: running the football plays to the identity that I believe
13:27
Speaker 1: Mike Tomley wants to have for the team. Run the ball,
13:29
Speaker 1: played great defense, find a way to take the ball
13:31
Speaker 1: the way and then minimize the turnovers offensively and so nausea.
13:35
Speaker 1: Harris is a big part of that. So he has
13:38
Speaker 1: to have more opportunity when he's ready to show a
13:40
Speaker 1: bigger workload. But really, up front, their office and line
13:44
Speaker 1: has to do a better job of dominating at a
13:45
Speaker 1: point of attack. When they do that, it makes it
13:47
Speaker 1: easy for anybody to run, and it's not just Naja Harris.
13:50
Speaker 1: All right, Bucky, when they have a game at the
13:52
Speaker 1: dog pound coming up, do you actually have a dog
13:55
Speaker 1: for effect behind you and barking? Yeah, Luna's ready and
13:58
Speaker 1: she's ready and she knows that it's coming. She's ready
14:01
Speaker 1: to get ready. She she wants the Little Elf too,
14:03
Speaker 1: so I might have to put that on the little
14:05
Speaker 1: dog color to get it right that. That's fantastic. Did you?
14:07
Speaker 1: Did you bring the dog into this just for the
14:10
Speaker 1: set up for this game? You should do this every
14:11
Speaker 1: Thursday or Wednesday. Bucket that Thursday game some kind of
14:14
Speaker 1: like in stadium, feel in your house. Absolutely, I'll work
14:19
Speaker 1: on the show needs more dogs. Tom Bring Doug next week.
14:23
Speaker 1: Thank you, guys, Tom and Bucky. All right, let's get
14:27
Speaker 1: here to the bucks and the UH and the packers
14:29
Speaker 1: coming up on Sunday. We know by now Mike Evans
14:33
Speaker 1: is not gonna play in that game. His suspension today
14:36
Speaker 1: was up held by James Thrash. So, Matt Lafleur, how
14:40
Speaker 1: does that change things? How much we gotta we got
14:43
Speaker 1: enough to worry about and they got a lot of
14:45
Speaker 1: playmakers over there and and really in every phase and
14:48
Speaker 1: great coaches and it's gonna be a great challenge. So
14:52
Speaker 1: you know, we only worry about the things that we
14:54
Speaker 1: can control and that's totally out of our control. So
14:58
Speaker 1: I mean, it doesn't impact us at all. Anytime you
15:02
Speaker 1: have Aaron, you're gonna have a formula ball offense, a
15:04
Speaker 1: so smart and it's so so sharp and pinpoint. He
15:07
Speaker 1: makes other players better. They got some young receivers with
15:09
Speaker 1: a lot of talent. They got some vets there and
15:12
Speaker 1: cabbed and Sammy and they do a good job as well.
15:14
Speaker 1: So you know, like us, they're trying to get in
15:16
Speaker 1: sync too and win some games while they do it.
15:18
Speaker 1: So you know, whoever makes the least mistakes or win
15:21
Speaker 1: the game. All right, those are your two coaches and
15:23
Speaker 1: the podium here as we get ready for Aaron Rodgers
15:25
Speaker 1: and Tom Brady. Yet another chapter. I'm gonna translate everything
15:29
Speaker 1: on the screen here. Basically, hear, what we're saying is
15:32
Speaker 1: that when these two quarterbacks meet in the regular season,
15:35
Speaker 1: that Tom Brady goes on to win the Super Bowl.
15:39
Speaker 1: Do with this, what you choose, all right. When they
15:42
Speaker 1: meet the regular season, Brady goes on to win the
15:44
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Seeve Watch back at the desk with Bab
15:46
Speaker 1: just you know, fun facts for you at the Water Cooler,
15:49
Speaker 1: if your office still has a water cooler. Maybe you're
15:53
Speaker 1: talking about the wide receivers white at that water cooler,
15:55
Speaker 1: because last week we're talking about the rookies and Aaron
15:58
Speaker 1: Rodgers not on the same page with his guys, dubs
16:00
Speaker 1: or Watson or whomever. This week we're talking about the bucks.
16:03
Speaker 1: They have nobody healthy and Mike Evans is suspended. Two
16:06
Speaker 1: very different yeah, look, you're absolutely talking about the wide
16:08
Speaker 1: receivers in this game and Aaron Rodgers, who we've been
16:10
Speaker 1: saying all season. The packers meant who's gonna catch the ball.
16:14
Speaker 1: They may actually have the deeper wide receiver crew coming
16:17
Speaker 1: into this game because of the suspension of injuries for
16:19
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers, which is going to be intriguing. As to
16:22
Speaker 1: WHO's going to run the ball better, we saw the
16:25
Speaker 1: Green Bay packers last week just gash the Chicago bears
16:28
Speaker 1: with Aaron Jones and a j dillon, both of whom
16:30
Speaker 1: can catch the ball out of the backfield as well.
16:33
Speaker 1: But the buccaneers have been running the ball as well,
16:34
Speaker 1: which is something they don't do. They're running a fifty
16:37
Speaker 1: run pass split. So again it's gonna be which defense
16:40
Speaker 1: can hold up and which one can and the buccaneers
16:43
Speaker 1: run defense, Andrew has been much better than the pack
16:46
Speaker 1: the packers run defense over the first two games. But
16:49
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna be a secret to any
16:51
Speaker 1: of these coordinators at some point of the game that
16:54
Speaker 1: these quarterbacks are going to make plays. It's gonna be
16:56
Speaker 1: which of the receivers step up and makes the plays.
16:59
Speaker 1: And if you've been watching the packers, some of those
17:01
Speaker 1: young guys are coming along definitely first time first time
17:05
Speaker 1: we'll ever have a game with both quarterbacks holding three
17:10
Speaker 1: MVP trophies. Is Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers meet again
17:14
Speaker 1: coming up in Tampa. Coming up? The latest on Justin Herbert?
17:19
Speaker 1: How is he six days after the rib cartilage injury
17:24
Speaker 1: in Kansas City? Like nine? So how about the Jacksonville Jaguars?
17:32
Speaker 1: Got Themselves a win last week, got themselves a shutout victory,
17:37
Speaker 1: blanking the Indianapolis Colts, and Trevor Lawrence looked like the
17:42
Speaker 1: real deal. A couple of touchdowns manage the game. How
17:47
Speaker 1: about that, Doug Peterson? The more you can execute the
17:51
Speaker 1: same play, you know guys know exactly where to be. Um,
17:55
Speaker 1: you know you can tweak the personnel or tweak the
17:57
Speaker 1: formation whatever, but you know, uh, there's some consistency there
18:01
Speaker 1: with with keeping it keeping it simple. That way. I'm
18:04
Speaker 1: all so a believer that. You know, you gotta keep
18:06
Speaker 1: challenging your players with new new ideas, new thoughts, new
18:09
Speaker 1: wrinkles throughout the week, things that you can take maybe
18:12
Speaker 1: advantage of, you know, in the game plan. But yeah,
18:16
Speaker 1: it gets as the season goes on, more more films
18:18
Speaker 1: out there on every team, obviously, and the same way
18:21
Speaker 1: with our opponents each week and you know, it does
18:24
Speaker 1: get a touch harder to game plan. But Um, you know,
18:27
Speaker 1: it's our job to find creative ways to move our
18:30
Speaker 1: guys around move their guys around in l a against
18:33
Speaker 1: the chargers and against a team that has a banged
18:37
Speaker 1: up quarterback. When last we saw Justin Herbert, he was wincing.
18:41
Speaker 1: It was painful to watch, painful to watch him deal with.
18:46
Speaker 1: What we learned the next day was a rib cartilage injury.
18:51
Speaker 1: Bridget condon with us live now in Costa Mesa, as
18:54
Speaker 1: the chargers getting ready for the Jaguars Sunday at so fi. Bridget,
18:58
Speaker 1: what's the latest? What do we know about Herbert Andrew?
19:00
Speaker 1: We are in a wait and see period. Justin Herbert
19:03
Speaker 1: has a fracture to his rib cartilage. Brandon Staley says
19:06
Speaker 1: he believes that's better than having a fracture to his bone.
19:09
Speaker 1: He wanted to take the weekend, let Justin Herbert Relax,
19:12
Speaker 1: then bring him back in Monday and Tuesday and see
19:14
Speaker 1: where he is. I can tell you a source in
19:17
Speaker 1: the building told me that Justin Herbert was in here
19:19
Speaker 1: yesterday doing what he normally does on a Tuesday, lifting
19:22
Speaker 1: weights and watching film and he also was throwing. This
19:25
Speaker 1: is good news just five days after that injury. Of
19:28
Speaker 1: course he was just in a t shirt and shorts,
19:30
Speaker 1: no helmet, no contact, but he was throwing. Didn't look
19:34
Speaker 1: like he was invisible pain. Looked like the same old
19:36
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert and I was talking to our own Kurt
19:38
Speaker 1: Warner about this injury. He suffered similar injuries and I
19:41
Speaker 1: was asking him about that rib cartilage. He said what's
19:44
Speaker 1: tricky with the cartilage is it's everything you do right,
19:46
Speaker 1: if you twist, if you cough, if you move, and
19:49
Speaker 1: so for a quarterback, when you're throwing, when you're engaging
19:51
Speaker 1: your core, you can feel it in every place. So
19:54
Speaker 1: he said it's kind of like when you roll your ankle.
19:55
Speaker 1: What's the healing process for that? Well, it's to rest it.
19:58
Speaker 1: But as a quarterback again, you can't just not use
20:01
Speaker 1: your core. So it's going to be about managing that pain.
20:03
Speaker 1: One thing he also said that was interesting is some
20:06
Speaker 1: points it can be so strong the pain completely takes
20:09
Speaker 1: over your body and then the next minute you cannot
20:11
Speaker 1: feel it. And we saw that Thursday night Justin Herbert
20:14
Speaker 1: on that third down play. Couldn't really do anything, just
20:16
Speaker 1: throw the ball away and then that very next play
20:19
Speaker 1: he was able to throw a thirty five yard pass
20:21
Speaker 1: to Deandre Carter. So this week it'll really be about
20:25
Speaker 1: how much they use him. We will get a chance
20:27
Speaker 1: to talk with Brandon Staley in a couple of hours
20:30
Speaker 1: before practice and see what the plan is to manage
20:32
Speaker 1: that pain. But again, a good news that he was
20:35
Speaker 1: out here throwing yesterday and good news for them that
20:38
Speaker 1: they have a little extra time to heal. Last week
20:41
Speaker 1: was a Thursday game in Kansas City. There a couple
20:43
Speaker 1: other injuries, bridget who else? Yeah, so key part of
20:48
Speaker 1: their offensive line, which is gonna be huge and keeping
20:50
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert protected in that game comes Sunday the center,
20:54
Speaker 1: Corey Lindsley. He left the game late in the first
20:56
Speaker 1: half against the chiefs. Brandon Staley said it's a knee injury.
20:59
Speaker 1: It's kind of the bottom of the quad where it
21:01
Speaker 1: meets the knee. He said he just needed an injection
21:04
Speaker 1: to calm it down. He does expect him to be
21:06
Speaker 1: on the practice field at some point this week. Remember,
21:09
Speaker 1: this is a guy who when they signed him before
21:11
Speaker 1: last season at the time they made him the highest
21:14
Speaker 1: paid position, highest paid player at his position. So a
21:17
Speaker 1: lot of value in the center, Corey Linsley, and then
21:20
Speaker 1: right tackle, Trey Pipkins is dealing with the lateral foot spring.
21:23
Speaker 1: He's Day to day, but Joey Bosa had the same
21:26
Speaker 1: injury last year. Brandon Saley said it's similar to that,
21:28
Speaker 1: and remember Joey Bosa did not miss a game with
21:31
Speaker 1: that injury. I have to wonder how the old line
21:33
Speaker 1: injuries affect any decision to play Herbert on Sunday against
21:37
Speaker 1: a very good Jacksonville front seven. Thank you, bridge of condon.
21:40
Speaker 1: Live there with the chargers. Now a Wednesday traditional. Unlike
21:45
Speaker 1: any other. Nick shook US here. He has all shook up.
21:49
Speaker 1: He writes about underdogs every week on NFL DOT com.
21:52
Speaker 1: High there, Nick. Let's talk about the dolphins and the
21:54
Speaker 1: bills here. As draftkings has the dolphins is a five
21:59
Speaker 1: and a half point underdog. What do you like about
22:02
Speaker 1: Miami this week? So I assigned confidence points to this
22:06
Speaker 1: and this gets my second most confidence points and not
22:09
Speaker 1: number one, despite what too it did last week, because
22:12
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's on the other side of the field and
22:14
Speaker 1: on the other side of the equation. It's very difficult
22:16
Speaker 1: to keep up with these bills. But, as to a
22:18
Speaker 1: displayed last week, this offense has the weapons to do it.
22:21
Speaker 1: Six touchdown passes he had. You have Jalen, while you
22:24
Speaker 1: have Pyrie kill, you have a vertical attack that they
22:27
Speaker 1: haven't seen in Miami since the days of Dan Marina.
22:29
Speaker 1: So I think that they have the ability to keep
22:31
Speaker 1: up with Buffalo. And if that's the case and some
22:34
Speaker 1: weird things happen, maybe they get a turnover too, they'll
22:37
Speaker 1: have a chance to win this game. All right, how
22:40
Speaker 1: about that one? I personally am concerned about Miami's past defense.
22:45
Speaker 1: Given up nine yards, you know, per completion and all that,
22:48
Speaker 1: but that's that's just me. Let's fast forward to Monday night,
22:51
Speaker 1: where somehow the New York football giants, hats off to them,
22:53
Speaker 1: Brian Day ball and company, come in at two and
22:56
Speaker 1: Oh and Dallas on the road. The Dallas Cowboys on
23:01
Speaker 1: the road against the New York giants are, according to
23:04
Speaker 1: a draft king, is a two and a half point dog.
23:06
Speaker 1: What do you like about the cowboys? Cowboys are a
23:09
Speaker 1: team that have dominated the giants since two thousands seventeen.
23:12
Speaker 1: They've only lost once in those matchups. But Cooper rush
23:15
Speaker 1: is playing quarterbacks, so you think well, playing fields definitely even.
23:18
Speaker 1: Giants are two and Oh, cooper rush also just got
23:21
Speaker 1: a victory. So what's more surprising the fact that Cooper
23:23
Speaker 1: rush got that win last week or that the giants
23:25
Speaker 1: are undefeated through two weeks? I actually say it's the latter,
23:28
Speaker 1: and the reason is, well, it's still the giants. There's
23:30
Speaker 1: still a team kind of on the up and up.
23:32
Speaker 1: They beat the titans in the panthers not exactly the
23:34
Speaker 1: greatest opponent. I think the most important part about this
23:37
Speaker 1: and why I like the cowboys is not because of
23:39
Speaker 1: how cooper rush played at quarterback last week. It's Micah Parsons.
23:42
Speaker 1: What do we know about these giants and Daniel Jones?
23:45
Speaker 1: If you get after him and take advantage of the
23:47
Speaker 1: offensive line, which looks better now than it did in
23:48
Speaker 1: years past, and forced Daniel Jones some pressure situations, he's
23:52
Speaker 1: gonna make mistakes. He's four known his last four home starts.
23:55
Speaker 1: Hasn't thrown a pick in any of those games. I
23:58
Speaker 1: hate to say it, Andrew, but I think he's doing
23:59
Speaker 1: I think Parsons gonna be the one to force one
24:01
Speaker 1: or maybe two that the cowboys capitalize on and get
24:04
Speaker 1: a road win here. Like a Parson's five games in
24:06
Speaker 1: his young career already with two or more sacks. Nick.
24:10
Speaker 1: Let's move on to America's sweethearts, the Detroit Lions, who
24:14
Speaker 1: got their first win last week for Dan Campbell and
24:16
Speaker 1: Jared Goff in your two. They get the vikings short
24:20
Speaker 1: week one and one. Detroit is a six point underdog here,
24:23
Speaker 1: according to draft kings. What do you like about the lions? Yeah,
24:26
Speaker 1: that seems a little crazy, and the reason reason is
24:28
Speaker 1: is who are these vikings? Are they the team that
24:30
Speaker 1: beat the packers in week one to seven, or are
24:33
Speaker 1: they the team that got dominated on a Monday night
24:35
Speaker 1: by the Eagles? The Eagles a team that the lions
24:37
Speaker 1: kept paced with at home all the way to the
24:40
Speaker 1: end at Ford field. Now the lions are hitting the
24:42
Speaker 1: road for the first time this season. But I love
24:44
Speaker 1: the Dan Campbell team. They're scrappy, they fight. They might
24:47
Speaker 1: fight a kneecap offer two, as he predicted last year.
24:50
Speaker 1: They're going to be in a game from start to
24:52
Speaker 1: finish out of sheer will, and I also like their talent.
24:54
Speaker 1: They're more explosive than I think we anticipated. Jared Goff
24:57
Speaker 1: playing well, amanras St Brown playing well and deandre swift.
25:01
Speaker 1: So if you take, you know, the comparison of well,
25:03
Speaker 1: they've each played a common opponent, the Lions fared better
25:05
Speaker 1: against the eagles than the Vikings did. Is that a
25:07
Speaker 1: one to one thing now? But I like the way
25:09
Speaker 1: that the lions have presented themselves and carry themselves on
25:12
Speaker 1: the field and if it's going to be as close
25:14
Speaker 1: as I expect, I'm picking Detroit. I'm taking Dan Campbell's
25:17
Speaker 1: bunch as having the edge and the ability to get
25:19
Speaker 1: over the Hump and beat a team that might be,
25:21
Speaker 1: you know, on some uncertain footing right now, with Kirk
25:23
Speaker 1: cousins struggling. Jared Goff says, they take the field now
25:26
Speaker 1: this season they actually believe that they are going to win.
25:30
Speaker 1: They look different. And that game against the Eagles, as
25:33
Speaker 1: you said, week one they had to rally and they couldn't,
25:35
Speaker 1: you know, do the full thing, the full comeback in
25:37
Speaker 1: the second half, but it was only a three point lost.
25:39
Speaker 1: Thank you, nick shook. NFL DOT COM. Slash underdogs. We
25:44
Speaker 1: continue on NFL now. Coming up next, that guy is
25:48
Speaker 1: getting a well deserved a football life on Friday. What
25:52
Speaker 1: we're gonna learn about said life? We're gonna ask Rod
25:54
Speaker 1: Woodson coming up next. What? What's does it again again?
26:06
Speaker 1: That kind of me, that kind of size. He was incredible.
26:10
Speaker 1: He had given his heart and soul to his steelers.
26:13
Speaker 1: After ten years knows Jason Arene is commitment to greatness.
26:17
Speaker 1: It's the greatest thing I've ever seen. The Ravens are
26:19
Speaker 1: the champions of the world. As a player, as a person,
26:23
Speaker 1: was the best I've ever coached. It is about time
26:30
Speaker 1: that this guy, our former colleague here at NFL that work,
26:33
Speaker 1: gets his a football life. Treatment coming up on Friday.
26:37
Speaker 1: He has a gold jacket. He's joining us live here
26:40
Speaker 1: in NFL now, Rod Woodson, how are you, sir? I
26:44
Speaker 1: am doing good. Thanks for having me on here. All right,
26:47
Speaker 1: let's let's run down the list here of accomplishments. Seventeen seasons.
26:50
Speaker 1: Hall of fame. Obviously you can't say hall of fame,
26:52
Speaker 1: Rod as your answer here. What makes you most proud
26:56
Speaker 1: out of this list of accomplishments? Eleven time pro bowl selection,
26:59
Speaker 1: six time all pro defensive player of the year, all
27:02
Speaker 1: decade team top one hundred, seventy at the anniversary team
27:06
Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion, xfl head coach team to be named later.
27:10
Speaker 1: What makes you the most proud out all of my
27:14
Speaker 1: individual accomplishments mids, I think, and it's not you didn't
27:19
Speaker 1: even say it and it's really not an accomplishment, but
27:21
Speaker 1: the year that I hurt my a c l the
27:24
Speaker 1: tenth play of the first game of the year and
27:27
Speaker 1: I got to come back and play in the Super
27:28
Speaker 1: Bowl that same year. Um that to me kind of
27:33
Speaker 1: I want to see how far I could push myself
27:35
Speaker 1: throughout that year outside of, you know, Bill Coward letting
27:38
Speaker 1: me stay on the active roster. I took a roster spot,
27:41
Speaker 1: so it wasn't fitting three guys and fifty two guys,
27:44
Speaker 1: and then this guy injured, guy me trying to come
27:47
Speaker 1: back from a C l. So I think for me
27:50
Speaker 1: seeing how tough I was, how much I can push
27:53
Speaker 1: myself to get through this injury and to try to
27:56
Speaker 1: come back and play in the same year, because I
27:59
Speaker 1: knew we had a good football team. I just didn't
28:01
Speaker 1: know how good we're gonna be and didn't know if
28:02
Speaker 1: we can get to the the super bowl or not. But
28:04
Speaker 1: if we got yere I would have the opportunity to
28:07
Speaker 1: play my first Super Bowl, which we did, and he
28:09
Speaker 1: ended up playing in three super bowls. That was not
28:11
Speaker 1: the answer I expected. You're totally right. What was it
28:14
Speaker 1: like sitting here listening to Bill Kauer and Ray Lewis
28:19
Speaker 1: talk about you? And what's IT gonna be like sitting
28:22
Speaker 1: on the couch watching this Friday night? Yeah, I mean,
28:26
Speaker 1: you know, I just played ball. I mean I'm just
28:29
Speaker 1: the country guy from Indiana. I got to play football.
28:33
Speaker 1: I give a lot of people credit for helping me. UH,
28:38
Speaker 1: Chuck Noel, Tony Dungee, Dick Lebo, Rod Russ, Marvin Lewis,
28:44
Speaker 1: Bill Kawer, all those guys influenced me in some form
28:48
Speaker 1: of fashion. But the biggest influence I had was from
28:51
Speaker 1: my father, who was a blue collar worker. All I
28:54
Speaker 1: knew is how to work. I've been working since I've
28:56
Speaker 1: been sixteen years old. So going to football practice and
29:00
Speaker 1: working out wasn't work to me. You know, I was
29:03
Speaker 1: I was making more than enough money. Uh, you know,
29:06
Speaker 1: my father would go to the factory at International Harvester,
29:09
Speaker 1: come back with his greasy hands and we would we
29:11
Speaker 1: would basically wouldn't have enough money to keep the gas
29:14
Speaker 1: on and the lights on in the electric so it was,
29:17
Speaker 1: you know, for me, Um hard work, pushing through being tired,
29:24
Speaker 1: meeting individuals like a Ray Lewis, like a carnel lake,
29:27
Speaker 1: who pushed me to work out even harder. Uh, those
29:30
Speaker 1: individuals kind of help shape me as individuals, as a
29:34
Speaker 1: football player. Man. We tell that story from Fort Wayne, Indiana,
29:38
Speaker 1: to where you sit here today, coming up again on
29:40
Speaker 1: Friday on NFL network. The first decade. You mentioned a
29:43
Speaker 1: lot of steeler influences there. Obviously in Pittsburgh, rod we
29:46
Speaker 1: get the steelers and the browns coming up tomorrow. Checking
29:50
Speaker 1: the numbers here. You had five career picks against the browns.
29:55
Speaker 1: I know the browns moved to Baltimore. Then you work
29:57
Speaker 1: for the Ravens. A lot of things have happened since
29:58
Speaker 1: when you were playing. But what does this rivalry mean?
30:01
Speaker 1: What do you remember? Well, I mean that was remember
30:05
Speaker 1: that was the old dog pound, that was the real
30:07
Speaker 1: dog pound. I mean that that place was dirty, nasty. Uh,
30:11
Speaker 1: they would the dog business at you. In the wintertime
30:13
Speaker 1: they would get snowballs and put little batteries in there.
30:17
Speaker 1: I mean it was a real rivalry. Um, but it's
30:21
Speaker 1: always great to see teams like this go at go
30:24
Speaker 1: at it, especially on Thursday nights short week. You can't
30:27
Speaker 1: you know each other. You know who they're gonna what
30:29
Speaker 1: they're gonna run. You know each team is the same way.
30:32
Speaker 1: They're not going to change their offensive defensive systems weekend,
30:35
Speaker 1: a week out and getting ready for a short week. Uh,
30:37
Speaker 1: these Games are always fun, but playing for the teaters
30:41
Speaker 1: organization with just a great culture, meeting the Mel blunts,
30:45
Speaker 1: who I think is the best cornerback whoever played in
30:47
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and the history of the game,
30:50
Speaker 1: uh to me, and Joe Green and Chuck Noll, having
30:54
Speaker 1: Tony Dungee as my coach, all those influences when I
30:58
Speaker 1: was in Pittsburgh meant so much to me as a
31:02
Speaker 1: growth as an athlete and as a football player moving
31:04
Speaker 1: down my later my career. One quick thing. I mentioned
31:07
Speaker 1: the Ravens. We showed your pick there as a raven
31:09
Speaker 1: against the browns. You've been doing the Ravens preseason last
31:12
Speaker 1: couple of years of Jerry Sandusky a great job with that. Um.
31:16
Speaker 1: What happened to that Vaunted Ravens Defense? Rod, you're a
31:19
Speaker 1: DB there. There seemed to be some issues in the secondary.
31:22
Speaker 1: Giving up giving up a twenty one point lead this
31:25
Speaker 1: past Sunday. Yeah, I mean given up thirty five points
31:28
Speaker 1: in the second half is unheard of for Raven Defense. Uh,
31:31
Speaker 1: got some young players in the secondary. Um. You Know
31:34
Speaker 1: Kyle Hamilton's uh, not that play right there, but the
31:37
Speaker 1: series before Marcus Peters got ran by right here. Kyle
31:41
Speaker 1: end up short. When you're the single high safety, you
31:44
Speaker 1: can never get a letter receiver behind you. And then
31:47
Speaker 1: the next series, which the play did you show before that,
31:50
Speaker 1: Tyer heel was running Scott three and all three corner
31:53
Speaker 1: all three safeties were on the left side of the defense.
31:56
Speaker 1: Entire Kiell was on the right side of the defense.
31:58
Speaker 1: So some young players. You're gonna take your lungs with
32:01
Speaker 1: young players. They have a really good defense. I think
32:03
Speaker 1: they will redeem themselves week in New England. Only two
32:07
Speaker 1: people have more picks in the one hundred and three
32:10
Speaker 1: year history than this guy, Rod Woodson, seventy one. No
32:13
Speaker 1: one has more picks. Sixes. Rod Woodson, well deserving getting
32:17
Speaker 1: a football life on Friday here on NFL network. Rod,
32:21
Speaker 1: great to have you on. Enjoy it on Friday. Hall
32:26
Speaker 1: of Fame Class of two thousand and nine, two thousand
32:30
Speaker 1: twenty three might have some of these names. When he
32:32
Speaker 1: got the list yesterday, nearly one hundred and thirty names
32:35
Speaker 1: on our initial list for next August for Canton Ohio.
32:41
Speaker 1: These are our first time nominees. A COUPLE OF NAMES,
32:45
Speaker 1: Steve White, stand out, Joe Thomas, Darrell Reeves, James Harrison
32:51
Speaker 1: and d white freeny as well. But you talk about
32:53
Speaker 1: reevus and Thomas Um it would be surprising if they're
32:56
Speaker 1: not first ballock eyes. I mean you look at what
32:57
Speaker 1: their careers are, especially Joe Thomas, who played forty miles
33:01
Speaker 1: away in Cleveland, and there's a dominant career. He had
33:04
Speaker 1: left backle for teams at Lost Ball Games and the
33:07
Speaker 1: respect he had from the guys he went against, from
33:09
Speaker 1: the James Harrison's, from the clay math, these guys like that.
33:12
Speaker 1: So it would be stunning if he's not a first ballot.
33:14
Speaker 1: I'm not a voter, I don't know. I don't know
33:16
Speaker 1: what's going into the process. And then dural reeves. You know,
33:19
Speaker 1: when reeves played he doesn't have like the spectacular Rod
33:22
Speaker 1: Woodson type interceptions tax because teams stayed away from it.
33:25
Speaker 1: It was ten against eleven when reeves played because guys
33:28
Speaker 1: just didn't go at him. So again it would be
33:31
Speaker 1: very hard not to imagine those guys aren't first ballot guys.
33:35
Speaker 1: But again, I'm not a voter. This is just me
33:37
Speaker 1: putting that out right. I just work here. Um, let's
33:41
Speaker 1: talk about the wide receiver. There is a log jam
33:45
Speaker 1: as always, as always, including our our our friend Ar Carlleagues,
33:48
Speaker 1: Steve Smith, seniterright. Does that get sorted out this year?
33:51
Speaker 1: It could, because, you know, let's just go through this
33:52
Speaker 1: area I went through where there are two of the
33:54
Speaker 1: five modern era spots already gone. That leaves three. Right.
33:59
Speaker 1: So now we're going back to Reggie Wayne, Steve Smith,
34:03
Speaker 1: uh Tory Holt, on Ray Johnson. Do One of those
34:06
Speaker 1: guys get into? All three of them get into? Two
34:07
Speaker 1: of them get in. That's going to be the discussion again.
34:10
Speaker 1: If they have to wait, receivers tend to have to wait.
34:13
Speaker 1: There's not many first ballot receivers that get in. It's
34:16
Speaker 1: gonna be a great discussion because also you're throwing some
34:18
Speaker 1: edge guys. You saw James Harrison and dwhite freeny as
34:21
Speaker 1: first time eligibles. But to Marcus, where was a guy,
34:24
Speaker 1: a lot of people were Stille, that didn't get in
34:26
Speaker 1: last year as a first time eligible. Does he get
34:28
Speaker 1: in and if he does, does he leap frogs Yard Alan,
34:31
Speaker 1: who's been waiting. This is why I'm glad and not
34:33
Speaker 1: one of those forty, forty nine selectors, because you have
34:36
Speaker 1: to have discussions about all of this and it is
34:38
Speaker 1: mind numbing because there are so many deserving candidates. There's
34:42
Speaker 1: only five modern era spots available. And Real Quick, one
34:46
Speaker 1: thing about Rod Woodson. I wish I would have had
34:47
Speaker 1: a chance to ask him this question. Should have asked
34:49
Speaker 1: if he ever gets mistaken for Eld de Barge. I
34:52
Speaker 1: would have asked him that Rod is my guy. Say
34:55
Speaker 1: That with all my love. Rod. You know that we'll
34:58
Speaker 1: text rod right now like barge question into it. Thank you, Steve.
