Football. >> is incredible and obviously yesterday we. had coach BA have the after the football.

there and that was certainly impeccable. timing by a man who coached football for. 47 years. And it feels like for this. particular program, we're incredibly. lucky that day after day throughout the. football season, we get a chance to. learn ball. We get a chance to chitchat. with the people who are, you know, the. creators of the game that basically we. have today. And today is no different, ladies and gentlemen. Uh JJ Watt will be. joining us. >> What an honor. He's fresh out of. dressing like he was from the 70s while. he was calling a football game this. weekend that his brother played in that.

he's being nonbiased in. But also, if. you were to watch that game without TJ. Walls, look how zany. >> He's so silly. He's so silly. >> I you fool. >> And you only see the glasses and the. hair at the top there. You should see. his pants. They are painted on. >> Yeah, they are paint on because he's. still getting under that bar. You know, he's still He actually rips his pants. almost immediately upon sitting down in. that 70s suit. Yeah. Right in the front. too. Not in the back. You know, every. once in a while you blow the ass out. You blow the ass out. This time had to. get a football covered up because, you. know, he uh blow out the front there. But that's going to happen. JJ says.

she'll war. I got quads in ass. Okay. If. I have to, I would be able to beat up. everybody in this room. You know, that. little bit of a rip there starting to, you know, the real zoom in by people. that are watching on TV. Obviously, you're zooming in on the wrong parts. there. Uh, who knows what you're looking. for. That's why I try to fix myself uh. this weekend in the entirety. But we'll. talk to JJ Walk. Cannot wait. Uh, another list of uh, Hall of Fame. nominees has come out and obviously JJ. not there yet uh, timing wise, but. congrats to all the boys that got the. Hall of Fame. >> Adam Venitary back on there. Let's go.

ahead and get his ass in. Shane Leckler. back on there. Let's go ahead and get. his ass in. Amongst many others, there's. going to be a lot of conversations and. debates, but every time you get a chance. to speak to a Hall of Famer, you should. respect and appreciate it while also. letting them know uh you can talk a. little as well. Tight end's Vernon. Davis up there. >> Okay. >> Okay. Vernon Davis obviously uh turned. into an actor whenever he retired. Uh we. appreciate him and we remember him as a. Maryland monster. Do you remember. Maryland? He goes to San Francisco and. just changes the game completely. Greg,

obviously Greg Olsen getting in there, obviously an absolute dog. Jason. Whitten, people forgot how good of a. football player he was uh because of. what he did on Monday Night Football. >> Yeah, >> people forgot he had to go play again. >> He did. >> Hard not to forget. >> Thank God he did. He was a great. football player. Everybody loved him as. a teammate. Everybody literally was a. massive fan of his. Congrats to him. being up there. Who do you see, Dut? >> You know, I go straight to the DB. So, I. love Eric Barry. He was a dog. Ham. Chancellor, uh, Legion of Boom, Earl. Thomas as well. Pat Certan, senior,

Dolphins legend, and Asante Samuel. Those guys st stand stand out to me from. that DB list. >> Uh 12-year NFL uh veteran, Super Bowl. champion, player coach of Tampa Bay. Buccaneers. Also played for the Arizona. Cardinals, the Indianapolis Colts, the. Pittsburgh Steelers, the Philadelphia. Eagles, and the Baltimore Ravens. Uh and. before that, Penn State, big one this. weekend. AQ Shipley's here. AQ, anybody. you see up there that uh makes you be. pumped up? caught up a pouncy brother. getting up there uh nominated for the. Hall of Fame and Maris, good for him.

>> Yeah, Maris Pouncy's up there. I see. Olen Crrooz, one of my favorite centers. from the Chicago Bears is up there. Willie Anderson, the big tackle out of. Cincinnati, needs to get in there. Overdue. >> How about Marshall? >> Marco Y needs to get in there. And my. guy Larry Fitzgerald, >> I love that. Eli Manning's up for it. I. assume he's going to get in. He's Eli. Manny. Would not be the first, right? Would not be a first ballot. Is that how. the whole conversation will go? Philip. Rivers up there. Okay, we like that. Everybody debates about Philip Rivers. every single time this happens. I do. wonder if Phil Rivers likes being. nominated or not.

>> Like I I'm sure there's some guys that. when they get nominated every single. year it's like no. >> Yeah, this guy sucks a Super Bowl. >> I'm not saying Phil Rivers, but let's. just say anybody that could potentially. be. >> might actually be cutting grass. >> Yeah, >> might just actually be cutting grass. Sit down, enjoy your life, open your. phone. 55 text messages from friends and. family saying congratulations then also. follow up. Have you seen this? Then you. go on to X accidentally. >> Mhm. >> And then you just start reading things. about your career.

>> Yeah. >> He didn't have anywhere near as many. tackles as bum bum bum bum bum. >> This guy could never show up in the big. game. Highlights, low lightss. >> start getting run about you every single. year. Every single time because that's. just naturally I think how sports kind. of happen. Especially if somebody's. going to go in from this team or. somebody from this team is being. represented. There's only a certain. amount of spots every single year. So, there's a lot of talking that goes. on to a lot of these nominees every. single year. People get nominated a long. time. Bum bum. I will hang it up now, I. guess. Uh, sorry. I'll be back. >> Threetime Hall of Fame nominee.

>> Hell of a run. >> Thank you. Yeah. >> Should have been four. >> Thank I don't I think three was enough. Uh, >> should have been. >> Well, two was a little bit too many. maybe. And and one time was certainly a. Thank you. That's very kind of you. Uh, with that being said, there was. immediately I had to come out and say I. do not deserve to be in the Hall of. Fame. I would like everybody to know. that Shane Leckler should certainly get. in in my eyes. And then there's a couple. other guys too that would probably if. we're going just strictly from a. punter's perspective and and how it. goes. Like Shane is my goat. So like if. Shane's not in there, I don't think. there is a real conversation about it.

But I did that also because I didn't. want people to think I actually should. have been in there cuz then you got an. onslaught of people going this. >> Okay. eight years as a punter, you know, and then you even got OG's probably in. the game coming out being like, we need. to start having different tiers of this. all. We need different halls, you know, we need the average this guy eight years. as a punter is getting in here. >> Like that's what OG players will start. saying. So, it's like to get in here to. get nominated, huge honor to get into. the Hall of Fame. Obviously, you're. remembered forever and it's certainly.

dope. We were there last Hall of Fame. game, got a tour of the entire place, got to look the entire place. It was. beautiful. You're part of football. history forever. But there's also I. think there's some that comes. alongside this getting nominated every. single year. Also expectations and. hopes. Oh yeah. And then boom it not. happening. So like I'm pulling for. everybody to get in. >> Now the guys underline any any. guaranteed first ballot guys you see up. there. I see top row Drew Brees. I. anticipate first ballot with the records. that he's Super Bowl champ. >> I mean AJ Hawk. Okay. >> Okay.

>> AJ Hawk is not a first first ballot guy. because he's been retired more than five. years. AJ Hawk in the linebackers is up. for the Hall of Fame. >> We would like to let AJ Hawk know. >> Hell yeah, buddy. >> Hell yeah. >> He was in Erlacer's division. >> Yeah. >> Okay. At the same time. >> Tough. >> Same position. I mean, that is a tough. thing. So, this is one of those things. Once again, AJ's going to say, "Nope. All the guys that want it, obviously, huge honor. If I get in, great. I'd be.

honored. If I don't, this obviously is. not going to fit." That's how AJ's going. to underell this. Sure. >> AJ's going to AJ's family, >> AJ's coaches, AJ's friends, AJ's. community that has supported him for a. long time that see have to battle. against, well, how many did he how what. did he what did it's like I don't want. to make excuses, but in the same. division or there wasn't social media. where you only learn basically about. things through what people wanted you to. know about. There was a goat playing. literally an hour and a half left of him. in the same division at the same exact.

time. Well, I don't want to hear that. He should be. It's like, well, he's. alltime leading tackler for the Green. Bay Packers. Is that pretty good. or not? >> Uh, led to the led the team to not only. a defense, highest defense ranking in. the history of the Packers or whatever, but also a Super Bowl. And then you go. to Ohio State, this guy, everything. It's like AJ Hawk, great. football player. >> Yeah, >> we forget about how great of a football. player he is and how big of a monster he. is and what he was on the field because. we talk so much to him on such a. regular basis. We've we've kind of. become desensitized. Yeah. But he's a.

guy that tried to run through your head. a couple times, right? >> Absolutely. >> AJ was a special player, man. Oh, yeah. And literally did not care for anything. Like didn't want any of the spotlight. Now granted, he'd click clack if the. underarm people came without a doubt. >> He would certainly do that. And he would. try a little kung fu karate if that if. that if that would help his game out. there, but he was very like low-key for. being a top five pick in the NFL. And. his head was the size of an actual. mountain. And he wasn't scared to run. through people, which is old school. football. I feel like that's why he was. the president of Ohio for one time. Well, you see his head and you think.

he's only a thumper. He was so fast, too. Like when he played in that 3, four. scheme in Green Bay and he was the. backside linebacker. I mean, he made. more plays on runthroughs through the. backside. I mean, he was so fast, so. elite, and then when he'd come downhill. and take on a fullback, I mean, obviously he had great practice going. against John every day. Every day. in practice. >> What did they say? They said they never. let up one time for like seven years or. something. >> Yeah, it could. Cuz then, you know, neither one of them are getting better, you know. So, no brother-in-law, even. though it sounds like they would talk to. each other about it and kind of be like,

"Hey, we really don't need to be doing. this every day, but they they did." And. John yeah, he evaporated like four. or five of AJ's teeth throughout the. course of them playing together. >> And that's what AJ would do. He'd just. line right back up and do it again. I. would like to say to AJ, "Congratulations, man. >> He's going to underell it.". >> Mhm. >> For sure. But we're pumped for him. And. uh we did that entire thing just to get. to that talks and tables here at Boss. Connor and at Ty Schmidt. Nine-year NFL. vet Darius J. Butler's here to see. Debbuts. I know you're sitting over. there today so we don't get to see the.

pants. Just know that Debbut's hat, hoodie, pants, and shoes all match. perfectly. Just know that he is full. outfit today. Uh look incredibly cool. Debb, we have a great weekend of. football ahead. >> We do. >> Not just only on Sunday and obviously. Thursday kicking everything off and we. can't wait for Monday night. every. single Monday night. It's always. incredible. And I'm sure there's some. high school football and maybe good. college playing on Friday night as well. This Saturday slate deep, bud. >> This is what we're talking about. This. is now, hey, now we're playing the game.

To chat a little bit more about this, let's head over to Hammer Don with one. half of the Hammer Don Cowboys AP tone. Massive weekend for college ball tone. >> Yeah, an absolutely huge weekend. And. this is one of those weekends where if. one of your friends scheduled a wedding. on this Saturday, that's just just a. real damn shame because this is one that. your ass is going to be on the couch all. day watching great games. There's four. ranked on ranked games. Uh starting with. the Oregon at Penn State, which is the. game day game, which will be the white.

out, which will be at night. It'll be an. incredible environment. Oregon at Penn. State. Right below that, Alabama at. Georgia. Just an all-time classic every. single time they play. Look for points. in that one. USC is going to Illinois to. see if they're real or not as a ranked. on rank. Miss and LSU uh is a ranked. onranked. We get to find out a lot about. those two teams. Uh and then there's a. lot of games where there's a ranked. opponent or a ranked team going to a. tough away opponent. You're looking at. Ohio State going to Washington, Indiana.

going to Iowa. Uh you also have Notre. Dame who has to go to Arkansas. TCU has. to go to Arizona State. Tennessee has to. go to an undefeated Mississippi State. Those are all ranked teams having to go. play in tough places so we could see if. we could get some upsets there. And then. Auburn and&M to just kind of a ranked. team hosting uh a tough Auburn team. It. is a packed slate. Those are 10 games. that I went through that are absolutely. mustwatch all day Saturday is going to. be incredible. >> Okay, thank you college football for. doing that. We're going to be up in. Happy Valley for a white out. It's going.

to be a white out there. Oh. Oh. >> We are Penn State. >> Okay. Let's talk about you being Penn. State. How you feel that team this year? There's some stats coming out. >> Okay. >> Not great. >> Good ones. >> Don't want to see the stats. >> Uh, good ones for who? Depends on who. you're looking at stats from. Could you. explain a little bit on which side would. you say good stats for? >> Um, well, obviously it start always. starts with the quarterback. I want to. see the quarterback stats. >> For Oregon or for Penn State?

>> Penn State. They're not good. >> Oh no. What? >> Yeah. There's a couple really bad stats. >> Start with his size though. Real good. stats. >> Okay. He's very tall. >> Very tall. He's from Ohio. >> Yeah. Tough. >> Okay. So, he's tough. We know he's. tough. We watched him be tough. He was. in some big moments. Had some massive. massive like uh he's calloused, I think, from prime time. I think he's able to. figure that out. Obviously has seen what. it's like. Um, obviously the way the. season ended wasn't the the most perfect. fairy tale type thing for him, but they.

haven't really played anybody. Okay. Which is uh I guess a part of the entire. story here. >> Great. This should be good. >> And uh. >> Yeah. >> Um. >> should be Grace. >> QBR ranks. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Mhm. >> This is QBR ranks. So I don't know who's. doing a QBR. >> Probably Probably PFF. >> No, ESPN. Okay. So these are good stats. >> I don't know if it's. Well, we don't know about that either. Now, Hembo stats are good stats. Hembo, what Hembo sends us good stats. We are.

very appreciative of Hembo. Yes. Around. here as a whole in this entire thing. >> Penn State people aren't going to want. to hear these particular stats. But. there is a narrative that Penn State. hasn't been showing everything that they. got cuz they haven't played anybody. Ain't that right, Tone? Is that what. they were saying? Like maybe they're. holding things back because this was the. obvious game that they were having to. prepare for the first three games were. vers. some nobodyies, right? >> Yeah. Yeah. the the the easiest schedule. in all of uh college football. Yeah, they were just running, you know, vanilla stuff on offense and defense. They didn't want to put anything on tape. that Oregon might see and be able to.

prepare for. >> Okay, so that is what people are saying. That's how the team looks. >> Okay, that's what people are coming up. with now. No, they're not playing their. best football because of how 136th out. of 136 is the difficulty of their. schedule. Okay, so it's the easiest thus. far. Here's a couple QBR ranks for Drew. Aller. Overall, he's 106th. 136 what we're going for third downs. he's 133rd. >> oh no. >> red zone 131st now I have not watched. every snap but what the hell is that. stat what what is that all because I.

like Drew Aller I actually came into the. season with Drew Aller is about to be. the guy what have we seen from him in. the first three games against nobody I. guess he had a pick he doesn't have four. touchdowns one pick I guess in these. first three games is the offense just. running him or we just not letting him. play like what is going on. >> no it doesn't look good but listen they. were 13 nothing up at the half against. Villanovva but here's the deal this is. what James Franklin said That's what. James Franklin said. >> No, that was a good ball club. They got. >> They have a football team. >> They went to the onea playoffs last. year. >> Are they playing their basketball team?

>> No, but what's old buddy that used to. coach him? He looks really good. >> Yeah, maybe he's talking to football. boys. McQuade in him. Maybe he's. motivating. >> But you know what James Franklin said? Hey, we're building depth right now. That's what we're doing right now. We're. playing the young guys. We're getting. the young guys in. We're mixing. combinations. We're building depth for. down the road. And that's exactly what. he's been doing. He's got this all. figured out. Listen, whenever I was in. school and we played Coastal Carolina, we won 70 to nothing and put up 400. yards rushing. But. >> nowadays, nowadays, >> nowadays, we're building depth. You.

don't have to red shirt guys right away. You can get some reps for some of the. true freshman. So, that's what they're. doing. >> But also, you got to give some reps to. the people that you promise reps to. whenever you're paying them money, which. obviously is a part of the entire. contract situation that we currently. have. So, maybe it is that they haven't. shown their best stuff. Debbut. Maybe. that's the way we need it. >> That's We we know how this. goes. They look they got lucky. They. start off with a preseason. You don't. get a preseason in college. They got It. sound like three preseason games to me. So almost like the NFL, we got a guy who. >> looks like when he gets off the bus. should and could be the number one pick. in the NFL. So you would expect, like.

Connor said, oh maybe he's just playing. a half and getting pulled out of. halftime. And that's when you get, you. know, the young guys in, they get their. reps. But 130 at halftime against. Villanova and Villanova. You saw. McQuade. >> Four touchdowns, one P. Like what are we. doing here? >> Well, we're going to have to figure it. out. Got a tough Oregon team coming in. I don't know what Dan Lanning's telling. that team. I could They just got done. winning a platypus. >> They did. >> Okay. They just won the platypus after. beating Oregon State. That's half. beaver, half duck. >> Yep.

>> Half beaver. That's platypus. >> Beautiful. They just got to hang that. son back in the Oregon facility. for yet another year. They're happy. about that. >> Drinking out of the platypus all. weekend. >> They're rolling off the back of the. That's what they're doing. That's what. they do up there. They have a good time. Uh but they're ready for Penn State. I. mean, this team has looked good and a. quarterback can spin it. >> Yeah, >> more can spin it. And they haven't. really had to do much either. I mean I. mean Oregon State obviously a game, but. they have really steamrololled some.

people. Nobody has done as good as. Indiana has done. >> True. >> Now, that is just a matter of fact. And. they got Iowa this weekend. Good luck, Tai. We recorded another college. football convo with Stanford, Steve, this morning. And uh I'll tell you what, I enjoyed it immensely. And college. football is cooking, especially heading. into a weekend where that team is going. to get a chance to prove yet again that. they're for real, even though nobody. outside of the state maybe believes in. them. Kurt Signetti has reloaded an. entire new team basically at some spots. at Indiana. quarterback being one of.

them. Last year had an incredible run. Oh, we'll do it again. We bring in. Fernando Mendoza, the quarterback from. Cal last year, if you all recall us. going to Berkeley when Daniel made that. kick in those vans and a magical morning. was had while Marshon Lynch showed up. and maybe brought some great vitamins. alongside of him as well. Fernando. Mendoza comes over to Bloomington, Indiana this offseason. Kurt Signetti is. able to find some money somehow because. remember basketball team got new coach. and sick said I'm starting to feel a. little bit cuz trying to be good at. basketball again but we'll make do. They. got the Heisen uh favorite now which.

leads to John Matier injured out for. some time. Thumb injury. John Matier of. Oklahoma. The story of college football. in my eyes. Song of Politell is going to. have to get back on that horse. >> Yeah, exactly. >> That was a tough night. That was a tough. game for those Cowboys out there. Song. Potell is going to have he's. Yeah, it'll certainly go. John Matier. though I was thinking that they were the. best team in the country because of him. and because of Arbuckle the offensive. coordinator. He and Arbuckle obviously.

transfer in from Washington State and I. say transfer that was a an offensive. coordinator hired and then quarterback. hired as well to come together. This has. happened on plenty of occasions. It's. been very successful a lot of the times. and it was in Oklahoma. Venable's. defense was great. He was great and uh. he's out now. They have a few weeks I. guess before they got to really play. Texas I think. Uh so maybe they'll be. able to recover, but this is changes the. entire fabric of college football, I. think, Tone. And obviously, uh Godspeed.

to Matier as he recovers from the. surgery. >> Yeah, it's huge. Um cuz he was the. Heisman favorite. He was playing. incredible. Obviously the Oklahoma. defense, uh I said nine sacks the other. day. It was actually 10 sacks. They're. playing unbelievable. So hopefully, you. know, with that defense, with Hawkins. Jr. who got some playing time uh last. year after Jackson Arnold got benched. He's got a little bit of experience and. in that new offense should be good. But. it is you never want to say you it's a. good time to get hurt, but they do have. a buy. They have Ken State and then it's. Texas. So, I know that there were some.

reports yesterday that they're hoping. they'll be back for Texas. Um if he's. not the game after that hopefully they. said hopefully by the end of October he. will be back. But it's huge because like. it kind of kills all the momentum this. offense and this team has had um and. they would only get more uh momentum you. know against you know in a by week to. get better and then playing against Ken. State which is always a fun game for the. starters in that one before the Red. Rival rivalry. >> Yeah, you want to have good of Golden. Flashes going through it but they. they'll be back. Julian Edman, congrats. on Patriot Hall. That's right.

>> Happy for him and uh bum for John Matir. and for college football but obviously. Godspeed on the recovery. College. football's been delivering. The NFL also. showing up in a big way. The ratings. route for college football. Big numbers. >> 6 and a half, 7 million uh on games, the. biggest games. The NFL is still pulling. >> 20. >> 4x that. >> 20. Yeah. 21 22 plus. So for college. football, we are still just at the very. beginning of this entire thing for where. we can head. Same great game, even. better environments. College football is.

what people should be telling NFL fans. Hey, we got it. And if you don't have a. college team, it's okay. Pick one up. Mhm. >> And when you pick one up, go experience. it. >> And when you go experience it, it'll be. like, >> "This is the place for me." It's. literally football heaven at all these. places. They love ball. They celebrate. ball. It's tradition to love ball. And. the new AP top 25 has Penn State sitting. at three. Miami Hurricanes at two. And. the Ohio State Buckeyes who have to. travel out to Washington at number one. Uh LSU obviously at four is a big deal.

Georgia, Kirby, and the boys finally. getting a little bit of respect. Top. five, Oregon. Oklahoma at seven. John. Matier out. How does that trend? And. then at 8, Florida State, and there's a. game against Miami right around the. corner. Elco's Texas A&M team. We liked. them. We have liked them, Tone, with. another year with Elco. We assumed they. were going to be successful, right? >> Yeah. They could run the ball. They have. a great O line. Obviously, the second. year uh for Marcel Reed in that offense. and then second year for Elco as a. whole. You know, his defense is going to.

get better every single year. We do like. a. >> Texas, Indiana, Texas Tech. Hey, mad. respect. Mad respect. >> Look out. >> I appreciated the Texas Tech people. coming after us. I did. I like that cuz. Texas Tech's uh been waiting a long time. to say, "Hey, show us our respect.". >> Yeah, we're back. >> And they are, by the way, they they. really are. Old Miss obviously. electrifying. We'll be talking to Lane. Keifin today at about 20:05 uh on the. many lives of Lane Keifin, an E60. documentary that will be debuting this. evening. We saw the teaser. It's like a. minute 49 teaser we watched or a minute.

39 teaser. This is gonna be electric. Yeah, >> this gonna be good for ball. I think. watching this entire thing about how. Lane Keifin basically has told the. stories of his life right there. He was. actually saying, I saw a tweet where. people were saying, "Man, I'd like to. hear what actually happened there from. his side." And McGee goes, "No. That's what we're doing." And that is. what they do. All the stories all the. way from Tennessee to USC obviously to. the Raiders now at Old Miss through the. times with Alabama. Like he uh kind of. goes through it all. I think it's going. to be a good football history lesson for. all of us. And also maybe we'll learn. about this guy that you certainly have. heard of no matter where you are in the.

United States of America and what your. thoughts might be on. He's been in the. limelight a long time. His dad obviously. legendary coach Monty. He was labeled a. guru, a genius at a very young age. Got. a lot of opportunities. Those things all. exploded. How did he learn through them. all while remaining a good coach and. still staying focused on task at hand? >> The many lives link. >> That's what we'll talk to him about. That old miss team is very good though. I think I saw uh another stat. What was. it like 20% or 12% of their plays are. explosive? Uh Hembo sent a bunch of. stats over. I mean, Hembo sent over a.

bunch of these stats here. Uh something. about Old Miss is like 20% uh something. Their plays are all explosive. All of. their plays are explosives. Everything. is like 25 plus yard completions. Everything. They go deep, deep, deep. And then they got a running back or a. quarterback now that can run his ass off. too. Right there. What's his name again? >> Trinidad Shamblas. >> Great name. >> Yeah. also national champion I believe. right. >> day two fair state last year. Yeah. >> Okay. He's a beast. So we'll be excited. to see all these teams play. Go ahead.

>> No other team in America has more. explosive plays through the air than. miss. They have 25 for 20 plus yards. A. third of their completions is an. explosive play. >> There it is. 33% of their completions. are explosive plays. They are exciting. And once again that goes back to Lane. Keifin and his offense. And also here's. him throwing an oop in Memphis after a. turnover. Go ahead and get that. Hey. Yeah. All right. That's Lane Kein, the. many lives of Oak tonight. We'll talk to. him at 205. The NFL delivering in a huge.

way. And uh we haven't had a chance to. really hear from the barbarian. We. haven't really had an opportunity to. hear from the trenches. Ladies and. gentlemen, it's time for Super Bowl. champion AQ Shipley. Takeaway. from week three of the NFL season. What. do we got, AQ? >> Detroit goes big to bully Baltimore. We. go down to Baltimore first. And let me. tell you, the the boys in Detroit ran. something I haven't seen in a very long. time, maybe since the 1930s. And when we. look at this, we catch it a little late.

right here, but you see the two tight. ends motion out to the left. They start. with three guys in the eye behind Jared. Goff. They motion out two tight ends. We're just going to run a simple zone. play. This was the flavor of the week. They ran this formation about 30 times. in this game. And they gave some. different wrinkles. Right here, you see. two backs in the back field. We send. Gibbs as eye candy. We send Brock right. to the right. We run downhill. Let's get. back in that super eye formation. We're. going to motion two tight ends over to. the right. Guess what we're going to do? Watch how pretty this is. Watch how. clean this is. We're going to run duo to.

the right. Double team. Double team. Look at that. Can you run behind that? How big is that hole? >> Yeah, I think I can run behind that. >> So, now backed up in our own our own end. zone. Look at what we got again. Super. eye formation. Two times like a uh. >> What's that? Like a human centipede. Whoa. I was going to say a train. Like a. train. Like like a dance. Yeah, like a. congal line. >> Yeah, like a. >> I was thinking human centipede. >> Yeah, I can see that because where the. helmets are. >> and once Goff leans down, takes a snap,

it's like Leapor is just in his butt. >> Yeah, that's what you were think. Yeah, I can see how you would think that. Other people maybe think, you know, line. marching line. >> movies, man. >> Five. Yeah, I got you. Yeah. Gifts, memes. >> Exactly. You see them, you know. >> Yeah. People's decisions. Yeah. All of. it. There's reasons for those to show. up. >> Yeah. Go ahead. Go ahead though, AQ. >> Yeah. This is the only way you can beat. Baltimore. We saw Kansas City do it in. the playoffs a couple years ago. And. then right here, you got to go in. When. they try and be the bullies, you bully. the bully. Let's do it again. Big.

formation, downhill duo. Let's get. people on people, hat on a hat, and just. beat the out of people. >> How about the Baltimore Ravens? This is. your takeaway yesterday. Yep. >> You said, "Man, just Detroit going in. there and punching the Baltimore Ravens. in the mouth in their house is a wild. takeaway." Coach Ba said the same exact. thing. Yeah, it is crazy. Two 90 plus. yard drives. >> Yeah, absolutely. Because it's one thing. to go into somebody's house and beat. them like they've been beat at home. obviously in big games, but to just get. absolutely bullied like two 95 plus yard. touchdown drives where they're just.

running running the ball down your. throat. That's tough to do against any. team, especially a team known for their. physicality. >> Well, what about the other side AQ? Like. how did the Lions get seven sacks on. Lamar Jackson? like obviously Hutch, but. were you able to see what they were. doing on that side just cuz I mean it. was basically something we've never seen. from Lamar before. You never see him get. sacked that many times. >> I thought Shephard did a great job. They. played spy most of the game on Lamar. Jackson and when you do that, you take. away a little bit of his run cuz when he.

doesn't have something right away, he. wants to run. Well, he doesn't have that. because there's a spy sitting there and. then it ended up being late and you end. up getting these sacks. But then they. dropped seven in coverage most of the. night. So you go seven in coverage to. cover three receivers or four receivers, there's nothing there. And then you go. to try and run and you don't have it. because you got that spy sitting there. >> Yeah, >> Lamar was awesome. Some of those throws. I mean he is spectacular to watch. Is. Baltimore going to fix it on the. defensive side. >> It's more a question for Dut over there, but I think I think they will hand the.

call sheet over. >> No, no, don't be doing that. Don't be doing Let's go. We need you. >> That next. >> I got bets on the Ravens to win a Super. Bowl. Chuck, >> this uh Let's go to the next one. We. teased this one earlier cuz this is a. big deal. >> Dog pound. Big D dominance. >> Yeah, big dog pound. Big D dominance. >> Okay, these guys are flying off the tape when. you look at this. Let's take a look at. the top five pick. Mason Graham lined up.

to the left. You'll see him circled. Malik Collins been playing forever. sets. the pick and they just meet at the. quarterback in less than two seconds. >> That's right. >> Now, let's take a look at Miles Garrett. over here on the right. You'll see a. circle coming. Tucker Craft come in. motion. He's going to try and kick him. out. Subtle move. Avoid. Get back. underneath. Make the play. That's. incredible. >> Hit him with a little stank here. >> Jordan dead leg there. >> I mean, it's incredible. >> How good is that? >> Yeah. >> He's good player. He's a good player. >> He's powerful. He's He's agile. He's. quick. He He's dominant. He's confident.

He's. >> This guy's unbelievable. >> He is unbelievable. That's why uh. Hasslam said, "What is he want?". >> 40 million. >> Done. >> All right. it. >> Don't even need to meet with him. >> Don't meet with me. >> Say no more, my friend. Just tell us a. number in that entire thing. Go ahead. Age. >> Yeah. Let's take a look at this next. play. Aiden Huntington, not Aiden. Hutchinson. Aiden Huntington, rookie, 6'1, 280 lb out of two lane. Just beat. Aaron Banks. Their big free agent. signing jumps around. Looks like a. little shades of Aaron Donald. Oh,

>> that's a big name. AQ. >> Aaron Donald. >> I don't want to oversell this because. he's the greatest player that's ever. played on the defensive side of the. ball. >> But 61280. Same type of move, same type. of quickness. I mean, he's jumping off. the tape. >> He's got hands like Robert Matis, too. Coming off of there. Look. >> How good is that? >> Hey, give me that quick at that size. >> Big statement. >> Hey, Aaron. Aaron Donnelly, you said. Are the Browns just going to have the. greatest defensive line in the history. of football and win 12 games a year now? >> Yeah. Let me give you a couple stats.

here, right? So, week week one, >> seven yards of offense for the. Cincinnati Bengals against this. Cleveland Browns defense in the second. half. >> Oh, yeah. Remember, >> let's go to week two, Baltimore Ravens. What do they like to do? They like to. pound the rock. They like to run it, right? >> 13 yards rushing and 23 yards rushing. for Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. shutting it down. >> Lamar throwing. Let's go against this. week. What have we said about the Green. Bay Packers? arguably one of the best. teams, if not the best team through. first couple weeks. >> Super Bowl, >> shut them down, beat them up. Met at the. quarterback all game long. >> All the stats about the Cleveland Browns.

defense right now are Yep. Yep. Yep. They're the best. They're the best. They're the best. They're the best. They're the best. That was not. conversation going in the season, was. it? >> No, definitely not. >> Who's playing quarterback? You guys got. Kicking everybody? He's going to wear. gloves. He's going to wear gloves in a. dog pound. Is that what's going to. happen? That was a conversation that. happened. Shador Sanders, fifth round. pick. Let's give this guy more. opportunity. Why don't we let him play? That was conversation that happened. Dylan Gabriel, he was drafted third. round, but. >> starting quarterback. >> Well, he could spin a little bit, but is. he going to be able to? Only Drew Brees. and Kyler have been able to do that. Is. he then? And then Joe Flacco, he's just.

there for what? To hang out. What What. is Joe Flacker? Those are all. conversations that happened in the. offseason. Not one conversation was had. and we're part of the problem. Jim. Schwarz was the defense coordinator of. that Cleveland Browns team. They just. spent 40 million on Miles Garrett. Obviously, they're very committed to the. defense, at least to one particular. player. They in last year or two years. ago their defense at home was like the. greatest in history. >> I think of Jim Schwarz I automatically. think of good defense and I guess with. all the weapons that they have this is. sustainable too right for them. >> Oh yeah. And they got a rookie second. rounder out of UCLA playing linebacker.

Carson Swessinger. >> Oh yeah. >> Love them. Love them. I mean they have. talent everywhere and they picked up. some pieces some veteran pieces like a. Malik Collins who has been around. forever but always been a good player. not a great player and he is shining in. this defense. >> Debo. What do you like about Jim. Schwarz's D? What do you like about the. Cleveland Bucks? >> Always fly around. Always going to be on. the same page. When you have a guy like. Miles Garrett who's on a alltime pace, I. believe he's only behind like Reggie. White when it comes to like where he is. age and sacks. Like when you have a. player like that that changes the math. every Sunday. You got other guys, young.

guys that just fly around and on the. same page. Not to mention Denzel Ward. who's one of the best quarterbacks in. the league. Um as well, Greg Newsome, I. like everything they have, but you know, with the Schwarz defense, they're going. to fly around. They're going to be on. the same page, especially at home. They're a damn good football team. >> They are a damn good football team. They. got to figure out their offense. >> Well, I I I actually texted him this. morning. I said, "You know what? Going. back and watching that second half, I. think I think Joe Flack started to. figure it out." I really do. I mean, hey, >> he didn't play great all game. He didn't. play great for 59.

minutes and. 42 seconds. >> But when it went when it mattered, Joe. gets him right to the line. Boom. Completes the slank. Gets the boys on a. ball. spikes it. Field goal team comes. out. We win 55 yard. >> Yeah. We win a game. What does Joe Cool. do? He wins football games. >> And what do you do as a Packers fan? >> Yeah. I mean, >> you watch it and say this. I hope this. Cleveland team's really good cuz boy, we. looked very bad. That's what their. defense does, though. It's the big dogs. in Cleveland. Big days dominates.

>> And it makes sense. >> It does make sense. What's the third. takeaway, Aush? >> Big bucking backup. >> We like this one. You nailed that one. Absolutely nailed that one. I like what. you're doing. >> All right, so let's take a look at this. group, right? Let's start before we let. this play run. You got Graham Barton, their first round pick from a year ago. Played left tackle at Duke. Should be. their starting center because of all the. injuries. Tristan Worfs is out. Let's. move our starting center out to left. tackle. Ben Bredesen, starting guard.

Let's move him into center. They're down. to their third guard. Klein, who they. drafted a year ago, started with Michael. Jordan, went to the next guy. He They're. both out. Let's go to the right right. side and right tackle. They got Charlie. Hec playing right tack who's been. practice squad the last couple years. It's backups across the board and people. playing different positions. Let's watch. Graham Barton right here. Let this thing. run. >> Okay, get off. >> Watch this. They run a counter. Get. Barton around. Boom. Bury him down. >> That is a big bucking burial right. there. >> How good is that? First play of the.

second half. Let's watch the offensive. line just wash everybody down. Put the. foot in the ground. Get backside. 16 yd. run. How do you set the tone in the. second half? You run the ball and you. beat them up up front. Boston's a big. bucker. >> Yeah, he is. That was a good one. Let's. take a look at this last one. Look at. the protection by this O line. Look at. the protection. >> Look at the protection. Nowhere near. Baker. Trust him. Look at that ball to. Bua down the sideline. >> IA said that Baker disrespect Baker said. that Ibuka disrespected that ball. because he went one-handed with it when. it was good enough ball to catch it with.

two hands. Then he called him a rookie. Now we're hearing that they don't treat. him like a rookie down there from. Levante David. Ibuka has surprised. everybody with how mature he is and how. awesome he is. He's become a very quick. weapon for that Buccaneer team, but. you're saying they're nowhere near. healthy in the most important part, which is the offensive line and are. still undefeated. How are they getting. it done? Just strictly by good play by. the center playing left tackle or. whenever they get their guys back, are. they going to take it to a whole another. level? >> Yeah, when they get their guys back, they are going to take it to a whole. another level. But the interesting thing. when you watch them on tape, Kevin. Carberry is their offensive line coach.

That's who Liam Cohen brought. That's. who Liam wanted to take to Jacksonville. They didn't let him out of the building. because he's that good. They are well. coached across the board. When you look. at their double teams, they're hip to. hip. Nobody's getting split. So, it. doesn't matter who they're putting in. there, >> they're showing up. >> That's awesome. Congrats to the Bucks. making a big buck in backwards. >> Hell yeah. >> That's really good news. Thank you, Aush, for your takeaways. Feels like I. learned a little bit more. >> It feels like I learned a little bit. more about ball. Can't wait to see. you're in the trenches. Um, >> you know, top five performing offensive.

lines from week three. I'm hoping. there's a team in there. Okay. Deserves. a little bit more respect. >> and hopefully that'll happen. Huh? >> I hope so too. >> Don't you think? >> Yeah. It's about that done. >> Vocal leader on the offensive line at. guard. That never happens. Feels like. offensive linemen should be happy about. that. >> Agreed. >> Like promote that. >> Maybe not be a hater of that. >> Do you think that happens anywhere? >> They were on in week one. They weren't. in week two. It's only week three. And.

if they're in it two out of three weeks, that's pretty good. We'll see. >> They were on at week one. Oh yeah. >> At five. >> Oh Yeah. He wanted to drop them. out. Remember he put losing team up. there at one. >> Oh yeah. >> Remember we started the entire thing. Yeah. So it's tough. Let's just make. sure we're continuing to be fair and. square on this. Let's make sure we're. only going with what the eyes are. saying. Let's not be, you know, getting. texts from coaches. >> Yeah, exactly. Hey, you're number two. this week. >> Yeah, that was so cool. Good breakdown. Don't be Don't be getting swayed from. that. >> The eye in the sky never lies and my.

eyes on that tape never lie. >> Okay. Well, I hope that's the case. I. do. You know who lied a little bit? >> Who's that? >> I'm a little bit. >> Who? >> I guess misled, but it was a great headline. >> Adam Sher put on a tweet. >> Cheffy. >> that said, Michael Parson said, "It's. going to be painful to tackle Dak. Prescott." Describing tackling Dak. Prescott. It's going to be painful. People read that and go, "Mike is out. for blood. Micah is looking. Micah's looking to.

attack and certainly Michael Parsons on. sacking Dak. It's going to be painful. Okay. So, >> period. >> Period. Okay. No context. There might be. people that are like very good people. that might have thought one particular. way, but a lot of people thought and. read that and said, >> "Mike's about to break that in half. >> Dude, he's going to inflict maximum. pain.". >> Oh my god. Pain full. The maximum. amount. We want that thing filled to the. brim of pain. Now, that's how some. people think. I don't think that's how. Chefer took it whenever he posted it,

but some people took it that way. Rob. Morty, the Associated Press provided. video of the full context of the. conversation. Listen to Micah actually. talk about Dak. I think it's a pretty. good little clip. >> And what if you get that opportunity? I. know you will want to with Dak. What. would that feel like? >> Uh, you know, it's going to be it's. going to be painful. You know what I. mean? Dak's my guy. Uh, you know, he was. always like a good mentor for me. Um, but you know what it is. He I always. told him if I ever face him that, you. know, it'll be a it'll be a great match. up. So, I'm excited to see what Sunday.

pre uh brings him. So, >> it's going to be painful for himself. >> Yeah. >> Cuz he's going to hurt his guy, Dak. >> Man, I didn't read it that way at all. I. was like, Michael wants to hurt this. guy. Then I thought back to what was. being said about Dak during training. camp. Remember, a little miked up. Oh, yeah. On the sideline, a little catch. I'm like, man, what the is going on. there? It's complete opposite. Mike is. like, Dak's my guy. Dak also leader of. that team. I think Mike McCarthy said. Dak is for sure alpha in there. I like. to hear that from Micah. I like the full. context of that question. >> Yeah. And I know you said Chefy might. have misled a little bit. I think I.

think Micah's lying. >> What? >> I think he's lying. I think he can't. wait to sack Dak Prescott because. >> you're saying he was saying it was. painful for him, but he led it off to be. painful for him. >> I think he's lying because I I play with. a great alltime pass rusher who should. be in the Hall of Fame, Robert Matis. And when 18 came back into the house. that he built, got a stadium outside. Lucas, he couldn't wait to hit 18 and he. did. Strip sack back end zone fumble. Yeah, we can't wait. So I think I Mike M. is bullshitting and I I respect it.

>> Yeah. Hey, I like the fact uh that he. paid respect to Dak, former, you know, that's good for culture stuff for how. I'll view Dak as a leader. I think. that's good uh going forward. But to. Robert Maz's point that this. >> with Payton like this is photo. >> Yeah. above. >> How many do you have? I have I have the. fourth or fifth or whatever the amount. of sacks that Robert Matthews has. It's. so much. And obviously everybody talks. about Dwight Freeny. Robert Matthews is. on the other side just full. >> Yeah. Strip sack. Yeah. It's his It's.

his stat. They didn't have it for a long. time. He was the guy that did it. He. started off on the kickoff team. >> Okay. He started off on the kick. He was. covering kicks and then he turned. himself into the guy that he is off the. edge. And to your point, Hall of Fame. conversation should certainly take. place. But him hitting Payton was. certainly the one. >> Oh yeah. >> Yeah. Yeah. cuz what they were teammates. for what 14 years, however many years. and all every time in practice, you. know, quarterbacks, you know, pat the. ball, hit you, then you dline, you beat. your guy, can't get near the. quarterback. Now, finally Sunday, you. can act. No red jersey on. Yeah. >> Where were they? Where was that ball.

snapped at? >> They were backed up. I mean, some good. it was some good coverage back. >> Yeah, it was good coverage on the back. end. Obviously, Payton's getting a. little testy, you know. Uh, >> that's good stuff. That's good. >> Bring that back one more time. >> Started on the four, I think. I just. want to watch Wes in the slot. He guy. couldn't get open. >> Oh, really? I I was I was looking for. him all night. >> What's What color are the glove? He was. going to him. He's trying to just. >> teamwork, baby. >> Yeah, it definitely is. That's awesome.

Yeah. Uh I'll be excited to see that. game. How do you feel about it? Oh, how. do you feel about the entire context of. the conversation of that particular. game? >> Uh I mean, I don't mind. I think it's. weird that they're trying to make a big. deal that there's not going to be like a. big video package for Micah coming back. Like it seemed like that's kind of what. And I get it like typically that. probably would happen but he never won. anything. >> EMTT Smith is a little bit different. >> Yeah. I mean Jerry. >> he came back. That's literally what. Jerry said. >> Yeah. Exactly. Jerry saying that kind of. you know obviously amplifies everything. and it's like okay well Jared come on. Obviously people are going to be pissed.

about that but he never won anything. I. mean, I think it it is it is going to be. cool uh just to kind of see because the. leading up to it all that we're going to. have to talk about it just with the you. know, Micah going back there. But then. there's going to be the immediate. aftermath too of if the if if he has two. sacks against the Cowboys and and the. Packers throttle him like that following. Monday. I'll be very excited to see. that. But uh it'll be interesting. >> And their left guard rookie Yeah. >> first round pick Tyler Booker is out for. the next four weeks. >> Yeah. >> A lot of bad news coming out of D.

>> Yeah. Jerry's quote there that we popped. up from Macha was fantastic. I don't. think that's appropriate this way. EMTT. was a different story. That's not to. diminish Micah. I think Micah's got. enough welcome out there. Okay. We just. need to show we've got antidotes for. that. So, they'll put a picture up of. him. >> Yeah. >> Congratulations. It might even say like, "Thank you, Michael." on the Michael. It. might I wouldn't I wouldn't put it past. Gary. Dude, >> he called him Michael 14 times.

>> He did. He hates his guts. There's no. two ways about it. So, >> they've had a bad ending. They certainly. had a bad ending there. Good uh. beginning. We'll talk about Danny Dimes. here in Indianapolis. AQ, have you been. following this Colts? I know you're. working for the Cardinals and now you're. a commentator. So, you're obviously. going to be biased towards that team. forever. If we start seeing them, >> yeah, every week. >> Yeah. We're going to have to start. wondering that because he's actually. doing this for them. >> on team plane, I think. >> So, this guy ain't going to say. about that. But I do wonder if you've. been watching the Indianapolis Colts. I.

have. >> because boy, this team is spectacular. All the talent that we've had over the. last few years seemingly being used at. maximum occupancy. The Danny Dimes. offense has been spectacular. He's. calling out blitzes. He's he's putting. us in the right plays. He's telling guys. where to line up. And the other guys, by. the way, not only they lining up. perfectly, they're all on the same page. They're seeing the picture the same. exact way. People are cutting off. routes. Danny Dimes hit him. Danny's. shuffling in a pocket. Quinton Nelson's. yelling and screaming at people. Do you. know why this all is maybe more crazy. than than you could ever imagine?

>> Because you finally get a guy in Danny. Dimes who got a little bit of. experience. It didn't go great, but that. experience. >> 96%. Was that what it was? 96% on the. athletic fan poll. >> 7% optimism. >> 93%. Okay. 93%. of the Colts fans. who don't know ball if they're the same. people that were coming after me last. year. >> and they are. >> okay and that's the people that it would. be the super active on the internet they.

>> Paul's people. >> we appreciate how uh excited they are. about the Colts we hope uh as a whole. but also how passionate they were about. their causes and well how they felt they. were certainly very very very aggressive. with me they don't know ball Okay, that. that was uh proof. Here is what the. positive thoughts or optimism for the. team going into the season was. The. Indianapolis Colts were dead. Worse than. the Saints. And the Saints had just an. open understanding that they weren't.

really going to be able to win for a. while. Hey, we're hiring Kell Moore. It's going to be a process. So, give. them a couple years. That's basically. what everybody has said down there. The. Colts 7% This was after they hired uh. named Danny Dimes as a starting. quarterback. Yep. Mine was the same. I felt the same way. Now I'm all in on him. >> Yeah, I was. I was. >> You You. Yeah, we understand. >> We've been waiting, man. It's been a. revolving door. >> We found him. You should have. known. You should have known. We found.

him. Okay. He's this big. >> What evidence was there? >> Yeah, that's right. >> The Vikings tried to pay him. >> Yeah, the Vikings. >> Oh, that's the evidence. >> They wanted to pay him more. He got in. the building. Kevin OC's like, "Holy. we got to give this guy amount of. money." Then Colts offered something. The Vikings like, "We'll give him more.". because he was in the building and then. he's like, "Uh, I don't think you guys. are going to really let me start here.". Right. Colt's seemingly going to give me. an actual competition chance over here. I'll take less money to go over there. And on that money note, here's QBR ranks. this year thus far. We're only three. weeks into the season. Danny Dimes is. getting paid 14.5 million this year if.

all of his hits, right? If all of. his incentives hit, which 300,000 has. already hit or something like that, and. he's well on his way, I assume, to. continue to hit him. Jared Goff, 32.6. million. Okay. Love that the uh Detroit. Lions are back. Also, that's not that. bad of a cap hit. And remember when. Jared Goff was traded to Detroit, one of. the big conversations was who's gonna. pay this guy's salary. >> That's that was a big part of it. So, the Detroit Lions saying we'll pay the. salary was a huge piece. >> Gave us the first rounder for that.

>> Yeah. They're like, "Thank you for we. gave him this deal. We so much. >> Shouldn't have." And they extended him. last they gave him the four years 160 or. 100 whatever it was to probably lessen. that cap hit and pay their guy. >> Yeah. So Brad Holmes up there working. some magic and also Jared Goff showing. his love and appreciation I think to the. Detroit Lions organization as a whole. >> Worth every single penny. >> So then you go down to number three, Lamar Jackson. Him and his mom. negotiated this deal. $43.5 million at. this stage of what quarterbacks are. getting paid. You think Lamar Jackson's. not getting paid anywhere near what he.

should. His next contract is going to be. outrageous, especially now that he's the. number one passer rating. Josh Allen. just won the MVP 36.3 million. He just. got paid a little bit ago. And Patrick. Mahomes kind of set the tone for all. this whole thing when he signed a we. thought it was a 10-year deal. >> Turned out it was an eight-year deal. worth like uh 44 or something like that. million a year, but we were told it was. 50 a year. >> Yeah. 10 years 500 million is what the. original reports were. And then it gets. down, it's like 8 years 44 million. It's.

like where'd all the other money go? I. feel like that wasn't the original. report. Maybe we were just wrong. But. that long-term deal with Patrick Mahomes. kind of started setting up everybody. else because they were able to do salary. cap gymnastics. V was able to keep. everybody that they wanted to keep. Now. granted, Tyreek Hill was not able to. remain uh Kansas City Chief, but. basically everybody else they've been. able to kind of manage because of. Patrick Mahomes' deal. And anytime. somebody signs a new deal, all the. pundits on the internet tell people or. tell Patrick Mahomes, for good reason, he needs to walk into Brett Vich's.

office and say, "I want new deal.". There's guys making $50 million. There's. guys making damn near 60 million. There's people that are going to make. $70 million playing quarterback in the. NFL right around the corner. And the. number one QBR right now is making 14. and a half. And for that, we thank him. Okay. We we you can build up the rest of. the team. This is just like rookie. contracts. Aaron Rogers is on for what. $10 million I think this year is the the. money he's getting paid. You can still. build a good team around that. I thought. that was going to be the way you kind of. have to do it to win. Then the.

Philadelphia Eagles won and they've paid. everybody. So, I think if you got a good. salary cap gymnast, I think you can make. some magic happen. But your quarterback. getting paid from every stat that we've. seen basically over the last however. many years. When your quarterback is. taking that big of a percentage, it's. tough to build a winner around it. >> Yeah, there's no doubt when you this. only furthers the narrative about. developing quarterbacks. And when you. look at a guy like Danny Dimes, a Baker. Mayfield, a Sam Darnold, and maybe. Carson Wentz next, right? I think. >> you look at this, they're just not. prepared coming out of college. games.

are two completely different games. College football versus pro football. You go back to the mid 2000s, the game. mirrored the NFL. The college game. mirrored the NFL. Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, everybody in the Big 10 was. running style offense. >> Alabama was running around. >> Yeah, they were doing the whole thing. >> And now everybody is just trying to win. You don't have enough time because. people might transfer. We just need an. offense that's easy, one progression. reads, and hand the ball off and runs. That's what college football is. And so. then you expect these guys to step in. and be Danny Dimes in year four or five.

in year one and it's just not the case. >> So you're saying it's quite a leap. whenever it comes to figuring out what. the hell the other side of the ball is. doing to you because these are. professionals and they spend their. entire lives on it and it's the all-star. game for the past five generations. playing against you. >> Is that what you're saying? Cuz defenses. are super like much more sophisticated. >> Oh yeah. >> Like you broke you showed the Brian. Flores disguised defense at the Vikings. Randy the other day. I think JJ Watt. quote tweeted and put it out there. you. see guys moving and going crazy and. everybody's talking about Matt Patricia. and what he's going to be able to do. with that Ohio State defense. Is it.

defenses are much more sophisticated in. the NFL like how much different is the. sophistication levels of the defense and. why does it from a defensive guys. perspective why the quarterbacks. struggle at a young age playing against. you? >> So it's the same thing uh that AQ was. talking about in on the college level. for defenses since offenses are getting. up to the line of scrimmage so quickly. and calling plays from the sideline the. defenses have to be simplified as well. We got to get lined up. we got to get a. call out. You know, I don't know if they. have the green dot for defenders in. college, but getting that communicated. across the field is a big deal. So, when.

you get to the NFL level now, not only. is it the defensive coordinator making. the calls, but you have a guy like. Levante David or somebody Bobby Wagner. or other signal callers out there making. adjustments to the call made. So, you. have now that's you know, you always. hear be a pro. Be a pro. So now you have. the guys when you 10 seconds left on the. play clock a guy you may be blitzing I. may switch to blitz hey I'll cover you. blitz. So you have all those different. adjustments and coaches got to you know. I think Brady talked about this it's on. the coaches too because a lot of coaches.

get passes on not developing these. quarterbacks and some of these coaches. just aren't good to that level where. they can be patient and help them where. they need to grow. So when you get a guy. like Dan Danny Dimes who gets to a place. like this where things are in place. around him, you can really grow and you. can really have that confidence in. yourself because you cannot you can't. play any position in NFL where you're. actually thinking like you have to just. be prepared and react. You have to play. Yeah. And the only way you can uh react. is by you know already being prepared, understanding what's coming, having. answers, anticipating things, hitting.

throws cuz guys aren't you got to throw. a lot of guys open. What's open in the. NFL is completely different what's open. in college. as a defender, if I'm on a. guy, if I'm on tie, I'm here. Most. quarterbacks, I can make that play. NFL. on Sundays, like, nah, you got to be on. that. You got to be a step ahead. So, it's just a completely different game. You got to have patience sometimes. And. a lot of we don't we don't owners front. office, you don't have that same type of. patience or uh development around these. guys. So, it it's a tough task. >> Well, the issue is, and I wrote about. this in my notes section in 200 maybe.

15, 16. I thought social media had amplified. people's lack of patience in. professional sports because back in the. day you would have to read like a. journalist's thoughts on you or maybe an. opinion would get sent into the paper. But if ESPN or some TV person wasn't. covering your. >> nobody really, you know, either knew how. bad it was or you didn't have an. opportunity to hear from literally all. of your fans. Now with social media, you. see how fans react and how people feel.

So if you even give off the perception. of being okay with what's going on, you're you're facing revolt potentially. like on a complete why is this our this. guy doesn't care. This lady doesn't care. at all. They're okay with us just being. uh bad. Why would I care as a fan? And. you're seeing people say that like in. droves. And I'm not saying that every. business makes decisions because of. things that they see on the internet, but there's a reason why Yelp became. what Yelp became. And there's a reason. why like surveys are a thing. Whenever. you see an abundance of things, I think.

it's hard to sit in the pocket while. everybody is attacking and saying, "We're going to stick with it. We're. going to stick with it." Because in the. off chance that you're wrong and you're. patient with something and it's not, it. never pans out, you have lost. everything in doing that. So, like the. quicker trigger, I think, is happening. strictly because of the amount of. information that people in decision-m. decision or uh positions have with how. everybody reacts. Like think about. owners learning how all of their fans. feel for the first time opening their. ex. Yeah.

>> Like think about Jim Ers opening that. thing for the first time. Oh. yeah. >> And just going what's this mentions? See. what this is. >> brother. Oh my. >> somebody tell them we did good. You know. like somebody's because now it's just. like ah. So I think that's why they make. better decisions. So like the. quarterback patience thing and I guess. we're part of the problem as well. because Anthony Richardson need to be. developed, need to be developed, need to. be developed. So as he's developing, you're trying to figure out like does he. have all the traits that when he's.

developed he's going to be a guy like. how how patient do you have to be? So I. think that's why this competition with. Danny Dimes is such a big deal. But to. your point, if New York Giants would. have been patient with Danny Dimes, is. Danny Dimes an MVP type player for the. New York Giants? If they would have been. patient with Baker at Cleveland, is he. an MVP- like player at Cleveland? Sam. Darnold in New York. that list of people. that kind of goes on a um the fair like. the uh merrygoround is very big. So, it's it's interesting dynamic right now. with college in the NFL. >> and even once you get good in the NFL.

like once you're good now it's almost. harder to continue to be good like all. these young quarter whoever Jaden. Daniels or whoever hey okay you took CJ. you took the league by storm your first. year but now when you're coming into the. league and everybody has a plan for you. to take away you know what you do best. what's your counter you know like we. were spoiled for the teams we rooted for. you know Tom Brady Aaron Rogers Brett. Big Ben like these guys were good every. week. You know, every week you get about. a minute 13, 11:00, two timeouts.

>> We're getting we're getting at least a. field goal. We're getting a touchdown. Like, you know, those things, but to do. that consistently throughout the league, uh, week in and week out, year in and. year out at that position is tough. because this is all guys, this is all, you know, Chuck Paganos and the guys. around the league are thinking about Jim. Schwarz, they're thinking about Jeff, you're getting a plan for this guy. specifically for this week to put him in. the best position to do what he does. not as good as you know you take away. his fast ball it's tough to do week in. and week out. >> Lou anumo you know he's out there. drawing it off for the Indianapolis. Colts with Cam Binham's conversation.

will be running about 230ish or so he. was electrifying but he mentioned Tom. Brady there for you. Tom Brady's been. talking about this. >> Well and that's the thing like we say. like if the Giants had patience like the. Giants might have just hired the wrong. people every single time. Like you can't. rule that out either. Tom Brady talked. about when he was a rookie on coward. basically, you know, his QB coach had a. heart attack, passed away really early. So Bellich became the de facto QB coach. of Tom Brady's rookie year. And like. what he talked about was, you know, the.

development of quarterbacks is so. important because, you know, some guys. just bring a system and they say, "Hey, this is my system. This is what we're. going to run. You're going to look here. If it's not there, you're going to throw. here." Whereas when Brady was a rookie. in the NFL, Bill Bich comes in and he's. his QB coach and he's saying, "Hey, this. team runs cover one when we are in this. formation." The reason they do this is. because their DC likes to do this with. this player. This team runs cover three. in third and five because this team runs. cover, you know, zero with blitzes on.

third and long because they're super. aggressive. Whereas that's not happening. now with these, you know, younger QBs. So, the reason a resurgence is happening. for, you know, Danny Dime, Sam Darnold, uh, Gino Smith, Baker Mayfield, like cuz. those guys go somewhere, they get. coached correctly, they get put in an. offense that isn't just like, hey, if. this is here, that will be there. But on. Sunday, if you ask a question, and this. reminds me of M. Jones, when Matt. Patricia became the OC of M of M Jones.

in New England, the the kind of process. was, hey, M. Jones asked him about what. happens if there's a blitz, and he. didn't have an answer for him. And. that's also the problem that the. players, you know, you don't hear about. because, hey, this player stinks. It's. his fault. It has nothing to do with the. coach. >> So Tom Brady saying if you raise the. expectations for a player, the player. will raise the expectations for himself. The more you put on and maybe be. underwater, but maybe the better he'll. perform. But what if it's wrong guy that. can't retain all that. >> You know that that's the then there's a. whole another side of the conversation. But Tom Brady's been very open about, hey, I don't think the game is anywhere.

near as sophisticated as it needs to be. for these quarterbacks and you're only. affecting the game as a whole is what he. says. But I'll tell you what, here in. Indianapolis, we're pumped for whatever. happened with Danny, guys. Go ahead and. run that thing. Now, Ty, we have a. minute and a half, and we have to we. have to mention baseball. Baseball is. having a big time right now. >> Yeah, without a doubt. There are five. days left of the season. Uh, so a bunch. of teams are still alive right now, but. the biggest story currently, unfortunately, Foxy is the Detroit. Tigers are in the midst of one of the. biggest collapses in baseball history.

They've lost seven straight games. I. believe it was on July 8th. They had a. 14 and a half game lead in the division. and as you can see there, you know, it. has just continually been stripped down. by the Cleveland Guardians. Um, and they. are the first team um of all time. They. they've eliminated a like a 13 12 lead. game in the division over the last month. or so. They're 17 and three over their. last 20 games. So, them and the Tigers. are tied. Uh I believe they play another.

game tonight and then there are there. are four games after this. So Yankees. clinched last night. Uh they could still. win the AL East. Who the Blue Thank you. who the the Blue Jays are in. Red Sox. are still alive. Seattle clinch. Uh I. believe it was last night as well. They. were battling with the Houston Astros. for a long time. Houston has also. collapsed quite a bit. Um and that's. kind of getting taken away by what the. Tigers are doing. And then you can see. on the right side there with the NL kind. of a lot of the usual suspects. Most of. these teams have already clinched. Uh.

the Mets are who everyone's looking at. because they have been absolutely. horrendous as of late. So, everyone's. still alive. A lot of good baseball. coming up over the next like 5 to seven. days. >> A lot of very meaningful baseball. happening. >> Very meaningful. >> Next hour, very meaningful conversation. Be a friend. Tell a friend something. nice that might change your life. >> You know what? I think there's only one. thing left to do here. I've experienced. cafesito time. I've experienced the. wonderful culture. I've experienced the. beautiful people and I think we got some.

canes over here. We got some canes over here. We got some canes over here. >> This day in Coral Gables is going to be. one that I will remember for the rest of. my life. Ray Lewis started his dance. right here at Miami. Ed Reed started his. legendary run here at Miami. The legends of football run deep. The.

moments are special. The national. championships are in abundance. Just. last year, a lovely University of Miami, woman diver from Italy, won a national. championship. This thing's been staring. at me all damn day. your mind, brother. You crazy, >> Kirk. I'm a little winded. >> That's what I was going to say.

>> The whole time you're running. I'll give. you a chance to catch your breath or. something, You're crazy. >> I hope somebody got a lifesaver over. there. >> Something. My man's out of breath. >> It is a long way. >> To the top. Jump in. >> Are you going to jump in there? >> Oh my god. Yeah. So, >> I'm tired for you. Oh my dick. >> Oh, he's going to take the jacket off. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh. Oh, he's taking. the shirt off now. All right. All right. >> Looking ripped. Looking Oh, he's taking.

the drawers off. >> Ladies and gentlemen, >> not the drawers. >> Ladies and gentlemen, if you come to. this beautiful campus, you will notice. quickly that the students here love this. university. They love this atmosphere. And I'm with everybody. I think the U is. back. Give me.

He's got the speed on. Oh my god. >> Give me the. Oh god. [Applause]. The canes baby. >> Here he goes. >> Oh god. >> Here he goes. Feet together. Feet. together. >> I think that was the less for the.

Got me jump off sides one time. That's. AQ Shippley. 12ear NFL vet. 9ear NFL vet. Darius J. Butler is here. The toxic. tables here at Boston Conor and at Tai. Schmidt live from Hammer D. Time is AP. Tone. Tone, good to see you. College. football is about to be crazy and. gambling is obviously going to continue. to be awesome. Are the people up or the. sports books up? >> Sports books. >> Yeah, >> boy. Big time. >> Jeez. >> Real big time. >> They got us in the first quarter. >> Mhm. >> Okay. They got us for the rest of this. game. We start seeing it.

>> They are. We got them right where we. want them. >> That's right. Cuz they're getting a. little bit too comfortable. their AI. that's cooking up the the algorithms to. figure out what the spreads are and. where the money's what and how. everybody's feeling, where the sharks. at. You know, they got more information. than ever, these books. >> We do, too. >> Mhm. >> Now, they got a lot more. Okay? They got. everybody's betting habits. They know. exactly where everybody's going. They. know where the smart people are going. They know where the bad people are. going. And they obviously see things. much differently than we do. But we need. to remember that they can be wrong and. that humans are superior.

>> Exactly. >> Right. >> Well said. No doubt. >> Think so. This is our week. >> Rest in peace to Dave Sheripan. >> Sports book Kin Sig. >> Oh yeah, >> we're going to miss the out of that. Yzer. >> He was great. Gone way too soon. >> On that note, are they still using. humans to make these lines or is this. thing all AI, Tone? >> I would highly doubt that there's uh a. lot of human involvement in these lines. >> So, we got to beat these things up. >> Mhm. >> Okay. What do we got? >> Find your edge. >> We all we got. >> We are all we got. >> Live. >> And if it's not us, then who?

>> Got to get them alive. Tone, let's the. live betting. Yeah, >> cuz hey, I can't react. >> They don't know. >> Soft ass. They got no awareness. >> They don't have eyes limp off the field. >> Yeah. >> Now, with that being said, I'd like to. let my I know. I think you're none of. these things. I think you're. >> When I ask a question, I need a right. answer for it. Can't be have it. You'd. be wrong. Grock, >> I'm out on my AI. >> I saw a scary one yesterday. >> Apparently, there's an AI now that you. can FaceTime with people and just choose. not to be your face. Could be anybody's. face. >> Okay, that's cool.

>> That's the problem. Okay. Who. decided to do that one? Serial killer. Why are we letting these things happen? Why Why is this That's what we don't. need. We need good stuff. Only the good. stuff. For instance, good Q&A. But it. needs to have the right answers. And. maybe not get so confused so easily. >> How How does that happen? >> How How do we get to the end game? >> Yeah. Just how does how does that how do. they get confused? I had an interaction. an interesting interaction with Grock. Now chat. >> Grock's the homie AI homie from X and.

Twitter. >> Don't say well Tony Grock's great. stinks. >> Yeah, Grock. Grock. >> Whoa. >> He a far inferior product to every other. AI. >> Okay. I see. I just want to let Grock. know if he's listening. >> He is. >> Okay. >> I'm not saying it. >> This is somebody else. >> Well, we we know why it's inferior. All. the information is getting from us. idiots on Twitter. It doesn't have. anything else. It's actually probably. pulling from AP tone, which is maybe a. part of the problem. Grock doesn't just. search, searches the entire thing.

because it w I watched the new Grock. kind of calculate answers. It's telling. me where it's at. Scan the internet. We're at a different website. We're. doing this entire thing. So, I think. Grock's trying to kind of reach outside. of just the X. >> There's a lot of B. >> You get caught up in the X shite. >> Yeah. >> I mean, even the greatest of AI probably. can't. >> in here. >> Yeah. I don't know how you get through. that. >> That was pretty simple, though. >> What's that? numbers. Pretty simple. One, two, three, ABCs. Like colors, you. know, like colors. You learn colors. Like McKenzie probably doing pretty good.

with her colors, right? >> Yeah. Blue, >> green, >> even learning multiple languages. I. don't know. My school at least South. Florida, we learned multiple. >> Excuse me. >> Rock AI supposed to be Eli made it, right? >> Yeah, he did. >> Colors. I mean, I know I'm wearing green. right now today. Lot lot of different. shades of green. Uh if you if you can go. to my timeline, I don't know how far you. have to scroll up and you might have to. do some reverse engineering how we. actually got to the spot, but uh Grock. said and it'll be it be much better if I. walk you through the the tweet.

>> Basically Debut and Grock have been. going at it a little bit. >> Yeah. And Grock Grock's angle is not a. good one to be behind. I'll say it is. First of all, got Fanakis wrong. >> Yeah. >> On uh Mr. Redford, rest in peace on the. GIF. Okay. You searching at Grock. Galifanakis Robert Redford pops up as. the top one. >> Yeah. What the hell? >> Whatever. >> Rest in peace, Mr. But. that's Jeremiah Johnson. That. ain't Zack Galvanas. >> I know. I know that. But we're humans.

with emotions and we have emotional. connections to these people. If you're. just looking at that photo, you can. easily say Galinaski. >> That's not his name either. Okay. It's. G. So easily. is his name. Exactly. Hangover. That is. that gift if we were all talking about. it. Bruce, have you found it? >> All right. Here we go. >> Okay. So, this is so uh who is this? Uh. EA tax whatever. Right. >> Scroll up to the video. >> Yeah. So, he So, this video first of all.

clip from up and Adam just now this this. Adam this this clip kind of goes viral. every, you know, every every few every. few months or so. some some account. tweets it out and uh someone asks, "Hey, who who are these people?" So, Brock. answers uh they're sports broadcasters. K Adams and NBA star Draymond Green from. a funny segment on our show. Now, you. know, >> it was funny segment to be clear. >> Funny segment. >> Funny segment. I know me me and. Draymond, we're both, you know, darkkinned black guys, you know, both.

athletes. >> I don't think I haven't got mixed up. with Draymond G. I don't think he's got. mixed up with me. If you keep on. scrolling down, so it comes to my. attention, someone tweets me, hey, there's Bo Gro seems to have you mixed. up, confused, blah blah blah. Scroll. down. So then I start to interact. >> Oops, my bad. That's actually K Adams. and former NFL player Darius Butler on. up in Adams. I must have mixed up the. Greens. Draymond verse Darius. Thanks. for the correction. >> Yeah. Now, as you start and you say my. name, so Darius, first name, last name.

Butler, and then you go Draymond Green. You say you must have mixed up the. greens. So then obviously obviously out. of that the obvious question is mixed up. the greens, huh? So uh yeah, pretty. pretty pretty interesting. Yeah. So you. know this is a good gift. Yeah. So we. scroll down. That's not Steve Harvey. just like you know obviously may be. confused with the hangover Zack G. What's his name again coming? >> Calvin you could search. >> if you could search Steve Harvey and. that would pop up because Hold on. Wait.

>> Oh no. Oh, you get mixed up too. But. yeah, so I thought it's very. >> what we're saying very what we're saying. is AI still has a lot to learn. >> A lot. >> a lot to learn. So whenever By the way, I don't like that that happened and. Grock should be issuing a nice uh. message. My bad is, you know, hey Grock, take it easy. Uh we need to beat them. whenever they're the sports books. Joining us now is a man who's a uh. >> Pro Football Hall of Fame nominee. >> He's a college football national. champion.

>> He's a Super Bowl champion. He's a Ryder. Cup winner. Ladies and gentlemen, the. former president of Ohio, AJ Hawk. >> YJ, >> congrats. >> Hall of Famer, dude. >> Congrats. >> Yeah. Uh-huh. Yep. Thank you. Honored. Very honored. >> Come on. I knew I first hour we did. what, seven, eight minutes on how. >> you guys were very nice. Hey, you guys. were all very nice. I learned of it from. you watching the show that the whole. that was even on that list. But yeah, you guys were were very nice. I. appreciate that. >> No problem at all. The list of nominees.

uh was released this morning. AJ Hawk on. the list for the first time. We are. incredibly pumped for you, AJ. I know. you would diminish this because you had. to be a guy that uh didn't need titles. or approval from other people to feel. fulfillment or have success. And that's. because you were in Brian Erlacer's. division playing the same exact. position. So, if you were to get upset. about getting voted for things at your. position, that would have taken over. your life. I assume that is why you've. gotten to the way you are. Uh, I don't know. I I think I've always.

kind of been the way I am. But yeah, I. mean, another guy, Lance Briggs, on. there as well. He's happy. No question. >> Okay. So, with that being said, congratulations. We're happy you're. getting acknowledged. We're happy you're. getting. >> also with that being said, can you kind. of start us off by explaining why you. think you are better than Lance Briggs. and Brian Erlacer and maybe Luke Keeley, some of the other London Fletcher? Why. do you deserve more than those guys. maybe? >> That's what it's about. >> Yeah. Isn't that what they do? to have. each guy talk about why they're better. than the other guy. I think that's how. it goes, right? >> Yeah. Yeah. It's your turn. It's kind of.

the Hawks call, if you will. AJ, >> no. But I saw Nick Mangold still there. Nick better. Nick should get in soon as. well. He's been on for years. >> Roommate from College of AJ. Maybe you. guys going together. >> Oh, it' be awesome. >> Oh my god. That' be a good little time. for. >> Yeah, at least. >> over shoulder. >> You guys saying Grock? You guys saying. Debbuts Grock is racist? Does. >> that sound like that? >> It ain't my Grock. >> Yeah, >> it ain't my Grock. We know what the R. stands for in Grock now. >> Mhm. >> Oh, whoa. >> Racist.

>> Okay. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Got it. All right. Joining us now, ladies and. gentlemen, is a man who will be a first. ballot hall of famer whenever his name. is up. >> Uh might be alongside AJ Hawk. >> Could be. >> Mhm. >> This guy went super zany with his 70s. look. >> to celebrate throwback football with his. CBS Sports compadres over there. >> So silly. >> to celebrate football and how great it. is. This man has brought his incredible. intelligence and his knowledge to the. booth. In two out of the first three. weeks, he's had to call his brother's. games. And he has maintained a nonbiased.

perspective that even the fans of the. other team say, "Good on this man. Good. on this man.". >> Hell yeah. >> He's former Walts Payton man of the. year. >> He's 6' 100, sculpted like he's out of. stone. Ladies and gentlemen, JJ Walt. [Music]. >> AJ for the Hall of Fame. >> Hell yeah. We need all the initials we. can get in there. >> JJ, you're 100% right. How about it, though? AJ was immediately going to try. to diminish that as quickly as possible,

which he did as soon as he got up there. At least take the moment, AJ, and say, "Hey, your peers say you're great at. football." That was a cool thing. I. think JJ, for AJ, >> yeah, it's who he is. That's why he's. nominated for the Hall of Fame because. he's that kind of guy. So, >> maybe we do a whole hour here on AJ. Hawk. >> We should pull up a highlight film right. now. This would be awesome. >> Yeah, we actually should. I I didn't. even think about that until right now. That That is what we should maybe tell. you. >> Or we could compare his stats versus all. the other Hall of Fame linebackers and. tell him why he should never be in the.

Hall of Fame. >> No, see, that's not a good part about. being nominated for the Hall of Fame. We. did talk about that earlier, how there's. guys that are nominated every single. year, and every year all they have to. hear is why they don't deserve to be in. the Hall of Fame. That kind of sucks. Yeah. Like. >> Yeah, that's probably not the most Oh, AJ Hawk with the tackle in. >> Yeah, this you can play this one. You. can play this one. Yeah. in the Hall of. Fame. >> AJ, are we going to make a pick here? Yep, we are. And then we're going to go. to the crib. I need some better. blocking. Look at me handle. You know,

you know, in high school, I was a. running back and a punter. I'd get down. Go ahead and let the boys on offense get. out there. They obviously had a full. game plan. What am I doing with the. rock? Who's that? Oh, all day. Adrien. Peterson. Let me smother them and then. let me celebrate. >> Oh, dude. I love I love watching these. teams, man. I I did not like playing. against but I love watching these teams. >> And that was another one of the. >> I got I just got shocked, guys. I got. him. >> Yeah. Throw up the Shocker. Obviously AJ. always had a little edge to him. He did. >> He always had a little edge to him, which we appreciate. >> Jeez, look at him flying around.

>> AJ, this is Hall of Fame right. here, bro. >> Okay. All right. >> Look at him shoot the gap. You see that? >> Timing him. Timing him up. >> AQ said earlier, JJ, the thing about uh. AJ is obviously Oh, give me that. Give. me that with a broken hand in the snow. >> Do we have rewind capabilities? Do we. have rewind? >> Oh, we can do it. >> Yeah, we can certainly do a little bit. >> Go back. Watch. Watch his first step. here. He takes a jab towards the line of. scrimmage. >> and then just the control to push. himself back out. You got to go back.

It can't go. get much worse, I guess, right? Is that. is that what we're saying? >> I mean, if you lose to a Let's just say. if uh Ball State beat the Green Bay. Packers this weekend, that's basically. what happened to Burnley. And Burnley's. the Packers. >> Is that right, Gumpy? Is that what took. place? I I didn't hear this. >> I wouldn't go that far, but that's a. tough loss to Cardiff City for sure. >> Oh, no. So, the Ball State beat.

I'll tell you. I'll listen to Gump. I'll. listen to Gump talk football all day. I. will not sit here and listen to that. mullet headed Boston talk about my. soccer team. Oh yeah. All right. You. shut your mouth over there in your Wolf. T-shirt. >> I I play I play five years high school. football. high school soccer for 5 years. Top tier. high school soccer. We're talking about. players who could have gone on and been. a big deal. So I mean where do you get. uh Hey, guess what? I played FIFA since.

2006, I got I got all the FIFAs. and I play. >> That's the name of your career, Uncle. Rico. I could have gone on and been a. big deal. But he knows it. But I said, "Oh, you. know what? I could go and be a big cool. guy like JJ Watt, or I could smoke. cigarettes and drink beer." Oh, what do. I want to do? Let me think. Cigarettes. and beer every day of the week, >> And then become a soccer pundit. >> And then you know what I said? Hold on. In 2009, when Chris Sha Ronaldo was on. the cover of FIFA 2009, I spent over.

$250 of my parents' money to get him on. my ultimate team. So, yeah, I know. soccer. So, I mean, I don't know. I. don't know why we're talking about, "Hey, I don't want to hear Connor talk. soccer.". >> No, I know. Ball State beat the Green. Bay Packers. >> Yeah, how about that? >> Burnley, Green Bay Packers. >> Cardiff City. >> H anyways, tough one for the squad. >> Get it off the screen. Yeah, it was the. Caraval Cup. It wasn't good. We played. bad. It wasn't great. We got the Premier. League coming back up this weekend.

>> Great on the other hand. Great comeback. yesterday by Espanol though. >> Espanol. I feel like we got good cafe in. the morning, you know, and Rob in the. afternoon. It feels like I like the. Espanol crowd a lot. I like the Espanol. team. Are we going to be good? Is. Espanol good at soccer? >> We got some juice, man. We got some. juice going on right now. We went down. We had to come back. 95th minute uh to. tie it up. It was It was crazy. The. Cauldron of Chaos is living up to its. name. It's nuts right now. >> Cauldron of chaos. We need to make our. way over there.

>> Yeah, I don't know enough Spanish. Uh, do they all do? They all That's. >> Don't need to.

You're so zany, you're really nailing. them all here. So, let's talk about the. glasses. Let's talk about the pants.

Let's talk about signing up for this. Let's talk about Mr. Eagles mustache. I. mean, I like what you guys are doing. CBS celebrated uh 55 years of football. and uh I appreciate you participating in. that. I think it's actually a pretty. good look for you. I think this may be. something you should maybe start leaning. in on a little bit more. >> I appreciate that. Uh if it didn't make. me look like I might try to take a van. near a youth school, you know. >> Very dy. Yes. Very. >> doy. Yeah. Um. >> but no, it was awesome, dude. I mean, we.

had Brent Musberger open up the. broadcast 75 years of NFL today. Like it. was it was really cool to have all the. throwback graphics and everything. Ian. obviously leaning into it. So, uh we we. had a good time with it and and the long. hair played in well. So I I think that. we hit the 70s hard. >> Yeah, I think you hit it hard. Your. pants also got hit pretty hard by the. curve of your thighs. >> Yeah. >> Heard those things just blew out. Somebody was zoomed in on your crotch. Just know everybody's watching. everything. I like that you're holding. the ball there, you know, make it look. like, hey, I'm a football guy while.

talking football at a football game. I mean, like I I responded to this. because it was something that I not I. knew was possibly going to come up, but. then as I started going through it, I'm. like, man, you really had to be looking. close and you really had to be like. slowing that film down. So, we got some. crotch watchers out there. Got to be a. little careful. >> Definitely. >> You You got more crotch watchers than. anybody. >> Yeah. Well, that's why you got to make. sure you know the whole kitten. kaboodleoodles inside the ride. Let's. keep our arms and hands inside the.

vehicle before we go through the. whoop-doos of the roller coaster. That's. certainly a thought that I had there. You've called two of your brother's. games. >> Was there Hang on, I got I got a. question about that. Once you hit water, was there any rearrangement? Was there. anything while you were under the water. that you had to keep everything in. place? >> Absolutely, dude. The the this thing was. maybe middle of my back just right. through the cheeks, you know? And then. the issue at the top there is that thing. was riding to the right just completely. side saddle almost, you know. So, I had. to fix that. As soon as I go under.

water, that happens again. Just right up. in there, you know. So, that thing's up. around here. High, tight, high, and real. tight, I'd say. So, yeah, underwater, I'm having a battle. I'm not the best. swimmer. I can't float. Everybody knows. that. So, you know, there's a little bit. of a battle down there, but boy, I love. my time. That campus is different than. everywhere I've ever been. I mean, it's. a resort. They got like very good. schools, I think, down there. Private. institution. They're building that thing. up like every day. It It felt like a. very different And their football team. is very good, JJ. Very, very good. It. >> They are. I missed the Orange Bowl. though. I do miss the Orange Bowl. The.

Orange Bowl was pretty awesome. >> Yeah. Historic place. It was so hot down. there. >> It was so hot. I I mean that's an. advantage. Mario Chris said that. We. feel like if teams come down here, Yeah. they have to battle against a couple. different things. >> Dolphins. >> Yeah. Lombardi said the same thing about. playing the Miami Dolphins that Okay. So, your brother, you've called two of. those games. Thank you uh for killing it. on Sundays. By the way, you've been. doing a great job. We've all been. watching and listening and obviously we. drop into your games during red zone as. well, which we're still watching. >> Mhm. still watching Red Zone. >> Yep. >> I didn't want to controversy there.

>> No, I said we still basically I said we. don't care like we will still watch it. is what I was saying. I just want to. make sure everybody knows I am still. watching. Is everybody else still. >> Yeah, it's not easy, but I'm still doing. it. >> I'm battling as well. >> Yeah, >> you're still watching. >> I'm I'm battling. >> What's it like? How How big of a change. are we talking here? >> Obviously, I can't see it now. >> It kind of like ruins your entire. Sunday. >> Yeah, you're lucky you can't see it, bro. Yeah, you get to see it live in. person. What we got to see is.

15 seconds of this thing pop up four. hours in and it's just right there and. you still got the box right here and. then I think disappears quarter of a. minute. >> every time. Where' the football go? >> And then you got to remember, oh, it's. in a small TV over here. >> Yeah. Oh Okay, there it is. >> Now the Still there. >> The issue though, Jage. Yeah, still. there. It's play through. It's play. through. The issue there J is this is. the first step of what these greedy. corporate facts are gonna do and I. didn't acknowledge that early enough but. I will say still watching red zone your. games will get dropped in we hear you.

and then even if we're watching not. watching your game as the main game we. still hear you think you're doing a. great job you having to call your. brother's games two out of the first. three weeks of you being in the booth. how has that been for you I brought up. earlier something that could maybe be. chatted about uh whenever you see. success on the defensive side you. probably want to get excited I mean five. what that defense is doing. There's some. excitable moments there, especially with. what your brother's doing. How has that. been balancing it all? And what are your. thoughts on this Pittsburgh Steelers. team? >> Yeah, I mean, I I've I've learned that. it's even more challenging uh to do it.

when he plays well, when he plays really. well. I mean, he had two sacks, he had. two tackles for loss, he had a fumble. recovery. So, you're sitting there and. like obviously, we've talked about it. multiple times. I'm very conscious of. not being biased. I don't want the call. to be biased. I want to play it. straight. I want people to understand. that I'm doing it on both sides. Um, but. then I mean, guy has two sacks, he has a. fumble recovery, and you're trying to. sit there and give him the credit that. you would give anybody else who makes. these types of plays, but you also know.

that everybody's watching and waiting, trying to make it seem like you're. biased. So, I'll say my partner Ian does. a phenomenal job. He kind of takes over. on the TJ plays and he makes sure that. they get the hype and the promotion that. they need. Um, and then I just kind of. come in and fill in with some analysis. But it's definitely interesting like. especially on his second sack of the. day. You're like, "All right, this guy's. defensive player of the year. He's got. second sack." Like I got to give him. some credit. I got to give him some.

love. >> But not too much. Not too much. >> People have been really understanding. They've been really good about it. Fans. from the Jets in week one and fans from. the Patriots this past week have all. sent me some great messages saying uh. that they thought I did a good job. I. know that there's one fourth down. holding call that they didn't love that. I pointed it out, but it was a fourth. and one point in the game. That was a. crucial point and he was playing to the. ref. I wanted to make sure everybody saw. it. Um, but yeah, it's it's a fun. challenge, but there's no doubt that. it's something you have to be conscious.

of. >> Go ahead, AJ. >> JJ, first off, I who cares? It's your. brother. You can pump your brother up. all you want, especially when he plays. plays well. I think people should be. able to understand that. But quick. pivot. New York Giants Jackson Dart, young quarterback. I want to know your. thoughts on what you would do uh when. you're facing a young rookie QB. Obviously, hit him, you know, try to get. him off the spot, all of that stuff. And. is there any guys, any young guys you. remember playing against where you could. kind of maybe you were surprised at how. well they handled it or maybe uh you. were surprised how well they didn't. handle it when you faced them when they. were young?

>> Um, I mean, I think the biggest thing. with the young quarterback is you just. try and mix things up early on. try and. give them as much stuff to think about. because you know all the stuff that's. already going on in their head. So I. mean just different looks from a. defensive standpoint whether it's stunts. whether it's some shifts at the line of. scrimmage you know I mean as we all know. here who have played the first thing you. have to worry about as a player is your. own job. So he's going up there and he's. trying to make sure he knows what he's. supposed to do. Then he's trying to get.

everybody else on the offense set, whether he's got shifts and motions, whether he's changing the cadence, all. those things. And then when he gets to. the line, he's got to worry about the. defense. What are they showing me? Where. now, if somebody tosses out a look like. Ryan Flores is tossing out, there's. going to be like that's things that next. next level quarterbacks are having a. tough time figuring out. Now, you can. get his head spinning. But there's also. young guys who are incredibly talented. and incredibly smart who walk up to that. line with composure, with cool, calm, collected, and they just wheel and deal.

And that's when you really get. confidence in your team is when a guy. walks up there in the face of all of. that and still delivers. And he's got a. chance to do that. But I I don't love. like I I don't love in general when. these teams draft a quarterback, say. they're going to, you know, sit him. behind a guy and let him play and then. all of a sudden we throw him into the. fire and you're like, "Okay, so were we. going to let him sit or we not going to. let him sit and does that amount of time. count?" And then obviously you got Russ. who two weeks ago has 450 passing yards.

and then last week has the four down. series he had in the red zone. It's the. NFL is a roller coaster of a league, man. It is crazy. >> It is the greatest. and Jackson Dart's. getting a pop every time he's shown on. the screen. Then he's getting like a. two- yard gain and then Russell Wilson's. getting booed and then he throws it off. the upright to end the game and it's. just like it it becomes a storm of like. abandoned plan. We don't care what the. plan was. Let's see what this guy is. But I think what you're saying is if. you're going to end up putting him in. anyways or put him in early. Shouldn't. we have a full training camp with him. being the guy? Like at least have a full. operation to see what he can get.

dropping him in the middle of the season. would be a fascinating like because not. only gamewise practice what it's what's. it like for him as the starter team. meetings what's it like as him as a. starter offensive meetings what's it. like as him as a starter in the locker. room what's all those things are brand. new to him and if you're going to go on. week four I think is what your take was. why don't we just. >> do the first three games. >> and your point your point is perfect. like this whole time we kind of been. playing this like is he going to play is. he not should we give him some reps in. training camp with the ones should we. not and if if you're going toss him out.

there in week four. Like you said, he. could have had a full training camp and. four weeks with the ones to work. And. now maybe is he getting some reps during. the ones already this year? Sure. But I. mean then you're also not committed to. your number one guy. I highly doubt he. was getting too many reps with the ones. the last four weeks. So it is it's just. I'm either throw your guy out there and. say we're going to roll with the curves. and we're going to figure it out as we. go and he's going to have some ups and. downs or do what you say you're going to. do and let him sit. But you know how it. is. jobs get on the line and everything.

changes. >> Yeah. And you're saying also, I think, empower Russell Wilson if he's going to. be your guy. Like, if you're if you're. going to do that, empower Russell Wilson. because I think what Connor wanted to. bring up is it wasn't too long ago where. we were sitting in a suite watching him. against the Dallas Cowboys throw for his. best number ever. And then that's what. Daybo was thinking of. Dbo was like, we'll get Russell Wilson in here. He'll. start for a certain amount of time, then. there'll be a right time to hand it off. Is there ever going to be a right time? >> I don't know. >> No. >> I I legitimately don't. >> Not with that schedule. >> Yeah. or with your job on the line.

>> Yeah. If you win though, are you going. to want to hand it off? You know, that. goes back to the Fitz to us situation. where Fitz like kind of won over the. locker room, but the plan was we're. going to hand it off and then Fitz comes. out and says, I I wasn't. >> I wanted to play. >> This is my team. I thought, you know, >> and it's like, well, that's not a good. start for two of us starting this entire. thing. The leader of the team is now. pissed about how it all went down. So, the rookie quarterback wait and then. we'll put them in thing. The more I. think about it, it's like Payton threw. what 28 interceptions his first year. Yeah, >> if that would have happened nowadays,

>> oh, >> might get cut. Yeah, >> I'm doing the Falcons. I'm doing the. Falcons game this week and Pennix had a. very rough game this last week and now. he gets pulled in the fourth quarter, which the game was gone anyway. It's not. like they're replacing him. But now you. have those questions pop up this week. and you're like, are we letting anybody. develop? Are we letting anybody make. mistakes? Are we letting anybody grow. and come into their own? Like, it's such. a week toe world. >> Short leash is everywhere. Now, you. brought up a name there about a defense. for a young guy, Brian Flores. Debbut.

has a question for you. >> Yeah, and you reposted, me and you both. reposted the same video of this Brian. Flores pre- snap disguise. And this is. just one example of some of the. that these young quarterbacks have to. deal with. When you talk about, you. know, developing and coming in, you're. covering, you're calling the game with. two young quarterback playing. If. Daniels is able to play, uh, what's your. biggest thing? What do you think the. biggest hurdle is for these young. quarterbacks getting up to this level. and playing on a high. >> and what is all this so we can just see. cuz it looks like there's a lot of. movement happening there before the ball.

is snapped. >> Yeah, Debbot, I'd love to have a. conversation with you about this because. to me. >> this is literally next to next level of. that NFL defensive coordination, but not. only from the coordinator standpoint, from the player standpoint. So, it's one. thing to sit in a meeting room and to be. like, man, how crazy would it be if we. went from an allout blitz look back to a. single high look, back to like you can. draw that up and that's great, but then. you put it into a meeting and your guys. are like, hang on, hang on, hang on. So, you want us to show this and then go to.

this and then you go to the practice. field and they try and do it and like I. said, you got some young guys or you. have a guy who didn't who doesn't know. what's going on and he can screw the. whole thing up. So for Brian Flores to. install it and for these players to. execute it is beyond impressive. And I. know that a lot of people are giving a. ton of credit to Harrison Smith, rightfully so, because he kind of. quarterbacks that whole thing. But Debb, how hard is this from a DB standoint? >> This is like 300 level I I don't. think I've ever seen this uh extensive. of a disguise. And like you said,

everybody has to be on the same page. So. not only Harrison, you got to have. multiple smart players on every level. when you talked about Brian Flores being. able to communicate something like this. because everything is you know you got. to know the play caller you got to know. how they operate as far as a play. clockwise like when do they like to snap. the ball because you show the first look. you show the first coverage typically. it's only like safeties maybe some DBs. sometimes you'll get a Dline shift but. for everybody on every level to be. moving on the same accord it like it's. unbelievable I don't think I've ever.

seen it to this level be executed. everyone has to have trust the timing. And then this is just pre- snap. So now. post snap, everybody's got to run a run. and fly around too. This is some this. some different. >> Then on top of all that, you got a pass. rusher who just makes a nasty spin move. at the top of the screen and gets in. And the disguise sure helped, but maybe. that guy was just going to get there. anyway. Like it's just a mind on. every level. >> And then on the offensive side, Kevin. O'Connell's calling plays and it seems. like they're going to work out. You.

know, feels like they got something. special out there in Minnesota. This may. be like in KOC mentioned it yesterday. when he was on the show how he goes into. the meeting room with B Flow to kind of. talk over the different plans. I don't. know if they uh cross paths with McVey. as far as KOC and Zack Taylor, but a lot. of these people AQ, you know, like. coming from the same trees, same okay, we start this, we move to get into, you. know, the eight and 12 area because we. go over, you know, how the quarterbacks. operate with the play clock, when. they're shifting, when they're. motioning. So having that uh tandem when.

you when you're dealing with an. offensive head coach that goes in and. sits in on these meetings Kman talked. about with Bellich and Tom Brady as far. as developing him as a young quarterback. like all this ties in. So when. you're watching a play happen it's just. so much more that goes into you know. these situation these plays been. executed. >> You got to have I mean back to JJ's. point about um how Brian Flores is. obviously coaching it but you got to. have like very smart players just like. the New England Patriots defense where. they had like four different game plans. every single game and that type of. stuff. Are we looking at a historic. defense over there in Minnesota? Is that.

what we're saying right now? >> And Cleveland, >> like Spags a couple years ago when they. went to the Super Bowl and you said all. 11 guys. Yeah. Spag said whenever the. Chiefs defense was leading them to. >> when they beat I believe it was the. Eagles the first time, I want to say. >> Yeah. And he said usually you have like. two guys, maybe hopefully three guys. that are kind of like coaches on the. field. He said all 11 guys are like. coaches on the field. You can do a lot. of things. And that Cleveland Browns. defense the same, right? They're they're. incredible across the board from front. line to linebackers to DBs.

>> Yeah, but everybody on the same page is. such a big deal this early in the. season. >> Chargers too. Jackson Dart, we got to. play like that. Jesse Mener defense, those boys are on a string. >> And same with Louis Rumo's defense. On. that note, Tai has a question for you. JJ, >> yeah, J. I mean, honestly, what the. hell's going on with the Texans? You. know, you hate to be going into week. four and already kind of writing off a. team, but some of the stats, right? Hey, how could you not listen? Some of the. stats are coming out with CJ Strad and.

they're they're not exactly uh they're. not exactly great, you know, comparing. him to. >> is this guy basically just Anthony. Richardson and. I didn't put that out. I didn't put that. out. I'm saying that's out there. That's. out there. So, you know, sure. Do those. people have a narrative? Maybe. But. >> sounds like you were trying to push that. narrative. >> Not at all. Cuz I love I love CJ. He's a. Big 10 guy. He's a Big 10 guy. >> Don't Don't let your voice go high. Don't Don't let your voice go high. >> Say it with your check. Say it with your. chest if you got something. >> He's a Big 10 guy, dude.

>> RIP. Uh, so I'm I'm just curious where. where are we at right now with the. Texans? Cuz they're their offense. I. mean, it does it doesn't look like. anything we've seen during the CJ Strad. era, >> brother. No, it was uh it was obviously. uh the first two weeks. I mean, you got. the Rams and you got the Bucks and they. go down and they're very tight, very. close games against first first in their. division teams. So, those are very tough. losses. Um but they're losses that you. can look at and be like, "Yeah, those.

are two very good teams when we played. right down to the wire." When I got out. of the booth this week, when I was done. calling the Steelers Pats and I check my. phone and I see that the Texans lost to. the Jaguars, that's one where you're. like, "Oh, okay. This this is not this. is not what is normally happening." Cuz. you kind of after the first two weeks. like, "All right, we're going to figure. it out and get on track." And clearly. didn't get on track this week. The. offense is struggling. Haven't gotten it. going. So, there has to be some form of. improvement shown there. And from what.

I'm seeing and what I'm reading, sounds. like the play action game isn't quite. there. And it just hasn't developed. This offensive scheme that they've. wanted to develop this off seasonason. when they brought in Kaye hasn't quite. hit the ground running the way that. everybody expected it to from everything. we've heard all offseason. >> All right. Well, on that note, there's. another team that's playing better ball. than it's ever played before. >> Okay. Harder start than Pton Manny Danny. Dimes here in Indianapolis. And then. whenever you think about the defense, Louis room, they're balling all over the. place. So.

>> J, it's just, you know, it's not as fun. when the rabbit has the gun here, huh? Remember we you had a couple years there. where you had a little bit of fun. Remember you guys. >> easy. The years aren't over. It's we. three here. >> Oh, buddy. Oh, buddy. You. >> Who's the last Who's the last team that. was 0 and three to start that went to. the playoffs? Us, >> I believe. >> Yeah. Who's on that team? >> I know we did it. Hey, JJ Watt ain't. walking through that door. CJ. >> Will Anderson is. >> Or is he?

>> Or has he been? >> Will Anderson's in that door. >> Denil Hunter's in that door. >> I know Daniel Hunter's a dog, too. Same. with Will Anderson. And we. >> What's going on up in Indianapolis? Like. what? I I have obviously I'm not able to. watch these games closely. Every week I. feel like I'm asking the same question. >> We're great at football. >> What is going on up there? >> Just you haven't been able to watch the. game in its entirety. I hope you get a. chance sometime to call a Colts game and. you have to do your research. Danny. Dimes knows everything that everybody on. the field is doing. Okay? Everybody on. the defense, he knows exactly what. you're doing. Broncos uh blitz them 76%.

of the time. Had 114 point something QBR. against the blitz. Knew everything that. was happening at all times. Knows. exactly where to go with the ball. And. oh yeah, where is he going? We got. weapons all over the place. Tyler. Warren, he's your size. He's He's. >> maybe bigger. >> He's probably bigger than you. >> I think he's bigger than him. Yeah, there's no way he could have put those. pants on to begin with, let alone. blowing them out, you know, up there in. that. >> that little thing on his forehead. That's like the biggest guy around type. thing. >> Little caveman type Yeah, he he.

looks like a uh Bigfoot, a Sasquatch, if. you will. He wouldn't be able to put on. Witworth's jersey and get under that. squat rack, not Tyler War. No, that. thing would have been busting at the. seams like your pants were if he was put. that on. He's unbelievable and he's. always open. Jonathan Taylor just had. three touchdowns. We like that a lot. Michael Pitman rolling. Josh DS hasn't. even really got started cooking yet. He. will at some point. It's like we have. >> JP has like 340 yards rushing, doesn't. he? He's crushing it. >> Yes, we are. And Danny Dimes.

>> Might be the best quarterback of all. time. >> No turnovers. >> It's unbelievable. No turnovers, one. punt. It's been so much fun. >> That's crazy. >> It's been so much fun to watch. Like. Danny Dimes though commanding the. is just like very evident. You're. talking about full control. We're doing. this. We're checking to this. He's. sliding in the pocket so comfortably. could leave, doesn't find somebody, makes a big throw. No sense. >> All right, so let's spin this thing all. the way back then to the beginning of. this conversation we just had. The New. York Giants, they have a rookie. quarterback. They had Daniel Jones for a. long time. Now they're switching from.

Russell Wilson to is this the situation. where Daniel Jones was always this good? He just needed the time development. I. mean, he did have a lot of time there. Let's not act like he didn't have a lot. >> on the offensive line. Quint Nelson's. not vocal. >> They need an old line. Never had an O. line in New York. Like even the guys. like it might to your point J like it. might not even be New York's fault like. just some of the guys they drafted some. of the free agents they picked up like. they just didn't work out like I. remember when Nate Soldier went to the. Giants after New England and he was. supposed to be you know their left.

tackle dominant for years and it just. didn't work out. And then Evan Neil you. know Bruce can attest he's playing guard. now and he was supposed to be their guy. I think Andrew Thomas when he was their. first round pick to play left tackle, I. think he got hurt his rookie year when. Dan Jones was. >> Now, on that note, I think everything. that Danny Thomas went through was big. for his development to get him here. You. know, I don't know what he's always been. like. Obviously, I think he's always. been super humble and probably a little. bit not loving of the spotlight and. everything like that when he gets. dropped into New York. But going through.

all that has to either kill you or make. you much stronger, you know, one or the. other. >> I think it's just the uniforms look so. much like Duke. It's just natural. like. he's just like, "Oh, I'm back. I'm back. in it. >> It's great.". >> Who was his coach? Who is his coach? >> David Cutcliffe. >> Who did Who did he coach pretty. personally? >> Uh, I believe Pton Manning. >> Oh, is that right? And what is he doing. now? He's starting better than Pton. Manning. >> Wow. >> Go ahead and start building a statue. >> Eddie Dime's going to be right next to. Payton. And then he might as well got. Cut Cliff right up there with his.

clipboard. Maybe a little bit of like a. puppeteer type thing. >> He's on a one-year deal there. I think. it's two years, but uh he's certainly. going to be looking to renegotiate after. this one if everything goes the way it. goes. He's making 14.5 million dollars. 14.5 million dollars right now. We are. incredibly thankful and lucky that. everybody said he was. >> ass at football, >> including our own fans that did the. athletics poll. >> Uh they they said to me we had no. chance. Yeah. And Deepa was a part of. that. >> and AQ Shipley was as well. Say sorry.

And so were you JJ and I think AJ Hawk. was as well. So everybody that's kind of. in front of a microphone right now can. say that they were a part of the this. guy's ass. The Colts think we're doing a. full rebuild. There's one of us up here. >> He didn't believe. this guy. >> I got to throw Bruce on the bus, too. Yeah. He didn't believe. Oh, I can't get. away from this guy. >> That's not true. We have always. >> I I knew he'd win the job the second he. got here. >> That was a fact. Unfortunately, he is on. a one-year deal, though. I would I would.

not. >> cuz that but that was our big thing like. they have the team so if Danny Dimes. comes in and plays the way Danny Dimes. has played they're going to be. unbelievable and they have. >> Oh no we didn't want him to play. I thought he was on a one-year deal. So. he's on a one-year deal today right now. What kind of contract would you resign. him to today? >> Whatever he wants. >> 55 a year. >> Whatever day he does. >> five years 70 per. >> whatever he wants. You got to think. about the whole culture of the entire. building before and after he becomes our.

quarterback. And I know it's a lot of. other positions and a lot of other. people that obviously can change that, but like. >> it's just so many. >> You're telling me this one guy switched. the whole building cuz last year I mean. you were on the culture of that building. >> and I was right. >> And I was right. >> and so he's the only one that changed. He changed a whole lot. >> Nelson comes in. Quentyn Nelson becomes. like vocal leader, you know, and he. becomes good vocal leader. Michael. Pitman, I think, feels even more.

empowered. Jonathan Taylor's playing his. best ball that he's I mean, there is it. It It feels like there is just a maybe a. belief in what's going on. >> Belief. A belief in a chance to win. >> Yes, I think that is what it is. >> That changes everything. Like when. you're losing, it's like I mean, it's. miserable to go to work. It's miserable. to show up at the building when you. know, hey, listen, we're going to we're. going to be five and 15 in, you know, the first. >> oh, whatever it is, >> 20 games in preseason as well, brother. >> You get what I'm saying? But it's like.

>> that the belief that you have when you. know you have a guy back there that. gives you a chance to win is everything. >> Yeah, it's if you don't have one, it's a. nightmare for all parties, coaches, players, everybody knows it. And uh. maybe that is why you sleep through a. treatment backtoback days. Sure, >> maybe that is why you show up late to a. team meeting. You know, >> that's what's good about Indie, you. know, like it's it's terrible not to. have a quarterback. It's even worse to. have a quarterback that makes like 150. million and you know, he's never going. to win a Super Bowl. That's probably.

>> What are you talking about? Danny Dimes. going to win a Super Bowl. >> I'm not talking about Danny Dimes. Danny. Dimes ain't getting paid 150 million. I. just think there's a couple guys out. there probably 28 years old. >> He might get paid and I'm not talking. about two either, G. But, uh, there are. definitely other guys out there. definitely that maybe we just talked to. very recently in the last few days, not. publicly, and he wasn't the exact. player, maybe it was a coach, and we. just find out things about players. I. think having a situation like Indie, like even Pittsburgh isn't even the.

Giants isn't as bad as, hey, we just. signed a guy to a 5year, $250 million. contract, and he probably won't get the. job done. And that sucks. You're talking about whenever the next. four years are just we know we ain't got. it. >> Kind of like what happened with Danny. Dimes the first time where it was like. hey we're going to pay Danny Dimes. instead of Squan and you know Giants. fans kind of all agreed you know Danny. Dimes goes kind of as Saquon goes. So,

it's like hand in hand. Whereas, like. sometimes teams will win 10 games and. they'll have a flash and they'll have a. good season, maybe they'll win a playoff. game and then you kind of have to pay. that guy no matter what cuz he's proved. it. But in the end, when you lay your. head down at night, you know, you can't. win a Super Bowl with that guy. >> Well, I uh I hope that everybody that is. at a starting quarterback for the team. that you're pulling for can win a Super. Bowl for. >> Absolutely. >> With that being said, Dane Dimes can. >> and I'm excited that that's the case. I. don't even think he knows he's playing.

good right now. I don't even know if Dan. Dimes knows that. >> Good. Huh? >> I think he has no idea. >> Good. Keep it that way. >> Every time he talks every every time I. talk to him, it's just, "Yeah, okay. You're having a good time. Everybody's. playing really good.". >> It's right. >> Mhm. >> You haven't done. >> Yeah. >> Let's move along to the next one. And. it's like I think his shins have taken. such a beating that he's like ready for. Indianapolis is a perfect place for him. Yes. >> It genuinely. >> I think it's zoner being on the. sidelines. I think just everybody's on. their P's and Q's. Everybody's dialed. Dialed. >> You're talking about Carly? Yeah,

Carly's down there trying to learn as. much as possible. Obviously, you're not. going to be out of line, especially when. one of the big three can hear everything. that's happening down there, but she's. trying to learn all the ins and outs of. the program. They also just built a uh. playground yesterday downtown. Indianapolis. Indianapolis Colts, dude. Yeah. Giving back to the Big Three are. giving right now. And the big three are. winning. >> Mhm. >> They're undefeated. >> Yeah, >> the big three are undefeated. They might. never. >> You ever put on those headphones? Have. you ever AJ, have you ever listened to. the offensive play calls and everything? Even for like me, somebody who has been. played 12 years, like in preseason, I'd.

put on those headphones, listen to the. calls, and I'll get I'll get a lot of. information from be like, there's times. where I'm lost what they're talking. about on offense. >> Well, yeah. And you get to hear him. freak out. It's funny. It's fun to. listen and hear the guys in the booth. freaking out that you talk to them later. and they, you know, they'll when you. mention it to them like, "Oh, you were. on there. What were you doing on the. headset at that time?" Yeah, they can uh. you can get testy on those headphones. for sure. >> I wonder they'd talk a lot of. >> Oh yeah, they kill each every player. They're killing all of us. >> That would be the tough part if I was a.

coach. >> Imagine BA on the headset. >> Yeah, that's what I'm saying. If you're. a coach, >> what the is he doing? Get him the. out of there. And then he has got. to click over to. >> he said it was Ben Rothosberger. He was. yelling on a different line. He thought. about Ben Rothosberger being just trash. And then he clips over. He thought and. Ben could hear everything he was saying. >> Ben's looking at him. >> What are you? Because he thought he was. able to just All right, Ben, you're. doing a great job. He like Ben heard the. entirety. I guess the nailing and then.

the All right, Ben, you're doing a great. job. He's like, you were on the same I. heard that whole thing. >> Oh no, that's not great. I wonder if. they are tighter up uh tightened up down. there, though. You know, they say like. hard knocks makes everybody act up uh. right because you're kind of being. watched. You know, if you're in a. bathroom, there's more people in there. They say you're more likely to wash your. hands if other people in there watching. you than if you're not. If you're in. there alone, you walk out. So maybe. Carly on the headset is making everybody. act their absolute best. >> I would hope not. I hope those guys are. exactly the same way they are whether. she's on that headset or not.

>> And you're So you're saying people in. there, people not in there. I'm not. washing my hands. >> Mhm. Yeah. >> That's exactly what I'm saying. >> What do you mean? We saw. >> We knew that. I mean, we knew what that. answer was. All of us, right? We're all. right. >> Yeah. There was no question about it. You should see these new ones. You just. put your hand out there and it just. shoots out soap all by itself. >> And then the air is actually on this. side. You just put your hand over here. and it's just blowing air out of the. wall. It's crazy. You should try it. sometime washing your hands. >> All right. And down at the Texans, uh.

Jade, you're not dead on them. You don't. think they're completely out? >> No. No, I'm definitely not dead on them. >> Uh who Yeah. Who are they playing this. weekend? >> Titans. >> You're out on them. >> They're laying seven against Tennessee. >> Doesn't even know. I have. >> Oh, Tennessee. Tennessee is going. through some stuff. Tennessee is going. through some stuff. >> So are you guys. I think you guys are. going through just cut CJ GJ out of the. middle of nowhere. What's that all. about? >> What is that about? >> Yeah. No, I will actually give Tennessee.

Jeffrey Simmons playing phenomenal. football despite a tough start here. Jeffrey Simmons phenomenal football. player. >> Just pivoted away from CJ GJ. >> Coach Callahan's starting to figure it. out, too. >> It seems like it in press conferences. he's getting more and more comfortable. >> Yeah. just more and more at ease, >> doesn't he? >> Yeah. >> God, that guy, it might be good for him. to not have that job anymore, you know? >> Yeah. >> The head coach. >> Well, I guess calling plays is something. that's going to change the the uh just. the whole thing just it doesn't look. like it's good for him. Have you seen.

the guy have an enjoyable moment? >> No. Absolutely. He hates his life. >> Not one had he's in Nashville. >> He took the first step, Pat. He took the. first step. First off, you relinquish. the play calling duties and then when. that doesn't go well, you get the play. calling duties back and when the knack. goes doesn't go well, then you. eventually get fired. >> Bo Harree be taking over the play calls. and obviously if it continues to go the. way it's going, Bo Harree will be fired. >> Exactly. Which is why I kind of love. this move. >> And uh I like I said,

>> Callahan the they just jumped the O. coordinator though. That was the the. interesting part to me is the play. calling duties did not go to the O. coordinator. They went past him. That's. a very. >> He likes that guy. >> Yeah, a little closer relationship. >> That guy's a He's not call. players. >> And Cali's like, I agree. I can't wait. to fire up. He uh we need him to. Nashville's great. >> Yeah, >> he might be a college coach. I think he. might freaking soar at like a UAB.

>> Maybe UAB. Yeah, like I think he might. call for Trent D for his job. My lord, >> I think I Hey, shoot. I think D I think. Der's more bored for, you know, the. Florida or VA Tech. I think Brian. Callahan, he starts at UAB, learns a. thing or two about respect for people. He might fly. >> Hey, um, hey J, why don't you hire. Callahan to coach Espanor, maybe the. Burnley boys after that Carol City loss? I I think that'd be good. He'll bring. some intensity. Sorry, Cardiff City. You.

get it. Yeah, >> they come in there and uh he'll get the. boys fired up and intense. Maybe. >> he's a great guy. We had we had meetings. with him two weeks ago. He's a great. guy. He's a great guy. It's just they're. they're not playing good football right. now. >> He's miserable, huh? Everything. He said. good guy. Just absolutely miserable. >> He seemed great. I mean the meetings he. was great. He was positive. Obviously. saying all the right stuff. It's just. they're just not playing ball. It's just. >> like what? Cuz seriously, I haven't seen. one clip of this guy talking where I'm. like good guy. >> Whoa. Jeez. Not not in the sense of like. I know like not in the sense of like.

good and evil. Sorry. Not in the sense. of like good and evil like good guy. More so in the sense of like nope that. sucks. Every single time I see something. of him. >> It is a lot of that. >> The coolest thing he's done honestly is. when Will Levis came off the field and. when he like rolled the ball to the. other team and Brian Callahan was like, "What the are you doing?". >> I remember coming up. That was awesome. >> Well, also he had a good promo about Cam. Ward talking to the defense while. calling a play and then giving back. He. was he was mind blown by it. He said. >> I couldn't do that. I don't know how he.

does that. >> Yeah, >> that's basically what he said. >> I mean the Paul Korski thing I think is. what really got me. He just he just. ripped Paul. >> What? That's what he said. I don't know. what I mean. >> No, that's what I I didn't even know. what if you were making a joke. I. thought you were just telling the story. >> No, exactly what he said. >> That's exact. >> He needs to win a game. He needs to win. a game. It's tough to be happy when. you're losing. >> I agree. You have to be mad. That that. was a part of why like it was for me. retiring from punting felt like a easy. move because. >> we were losing games. I had to be. miserable. And it actually was miserable.

because boy, it'd be much better if we. won. Like everything would be better if. we won. >> And it's like as a punter, I have no say. in that fourth quarter we're down. All. right, boys. Let's go, man. I need to. have a good Let's have a happy week this. week. Let's say this is all worth it. And then the ball just bounces the wrong. way. We lose. And all of a sudden, you. got to be miserable. Okay. It's like, all right, that's certainly something. This is Callahan, though. every time. he's in front of a microphone. Literally, this is him right here. >> Yeah, I I've have zero disappointment in. my play calling. I mean, uh I I don't.

have any disappointment in that at all. Um. >> Yeah, we're 0 and three, but. it's not my fault of my plays. >> We appreciate Callahan. Uh J, we. appreciate. >> I think your point right there is such a. good point that people like when they. always ask like, "Do you miss the game. or like how's retirement and. everything?" I I don't think people. understand how miserable every single. week after a loss is and how just by. proxy of being retired and not having. that experience like yes the the good. days are always better but those weeks.

it is a full seven days of misery. >> I couldn't even imagine you such a focal. point of wins and losses having to feel. that shoulder that you as well age. that's crazy thing to think about and uh. I'm happy I didn't have to do that. I. just by proxy had to be pissed because. life isn't as good whenever we're not. winning, boys. Okay. If everybody could. kind of do their we'd be great. Let's go ahead and do that. Let's maybe. protect our quarterback. Let's think. about doing that. Okay. Sky really good. at football. Let's maybe.

>> I don't know what I don't know who I. need to talk to here. I don't know who. the person is. Maybe. >> Let me tell you what I'm seeing, guys. Let me tell you what I'm seeing from the. sidelines over here. >> We can maybe catch those balls. That'd. be great. >> And these routes, I don't know. You're. seemingly not as open as everybody else. is. Need those to go a little bit. better. I I don't know how we get that. defense. We need to wrap up. Okay. We. got a lot of got a lot of this. happening. We don't need We need to. start wrapping up. Boys, life is much. better whenever we're all mostly you. guys. >> doing your So, if we could do our.

that'd be great. All internal. thoughts. Never say them out loud. >> That's right. >> What you say out loud is actually go. boys. Go boys. Team game. Team game. I'm. riding. I'm riding inside though. It's a. lot of this guy is terrible. Why. is this guy Why is this guy on the. team? I What do we I can't say. that though. That guy's much tougher. than me. That guy's job much harder than. mine. That guy much more important than. me. So, what I got to do is Hey, what's. Hey, next week, bro. >> Come on, man. I need you. We need. >> Oh, somebody I I saw somebody's brother.

did that this week. Somebody's brother. like post on social media that a player. on their team sucked. And it was just. like, dude, you just put him in the. worst spot of all time in the locker. room. >> walking in there. That's like when uh. Odell's dad. >> was putting together highlights of Baker. Mayfield. >> All right, Odell, don't go in there. Go. see him. >> Baker's not even looking at him. Why. isn't he looking at I mean, I'm putting. out three highlights a week of this guy. being ass, but why isn't he looking at. my boy? It's like, man, >> just getting your eggs in the morning. Just Yep. Good morning. Yep. Sorry, my.

dad. Sorry. >> Can you send your dad different plays? Like I threw you the ball a couple. times. Can you do that? My dad's crazy. You know, just walk away. I don't know. how you get through that. And then they. get rid of a guy. Now he might maybe. lead this team to undefeated. >> Really good. >> J, you've been pitching a perfect game. in that booth. We appreciate you doing. that. Congrats to your Espanol team. doing what they do. And your Burnley. team. Come on, lads. >> Carol City is a tough shot. >> We got All right. All right. Let's give.

Cardiff their credit. Cardiff. Cardiff. We got Man City on Saturday. That'll go. well. >> You know what? I am so sick and tired of. your ass. >> Oh, fight them. I'm. >> Please go on, J. >> No, I I I'll back down because every. week your hair has gotten significantly. better. Uh, and it looks fantastic. I. will give you. >> this positive. Give me those props. >> Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. That's. First B Hall of Famer. I.

>> I'll return it. Um, you know, I thought. you were top five booth. I muted it 5. minutes in, but I've heard people love. you, brother. >> How about that? Look at this. But our. sword's gone. >> Great. >> 5 minutes. >> That's a long time. 5 minutes. A long. time. >> The nicest thing I've said to a lot. someone in a long time and he said it. was mean, so I'm done with compliments. That's the last compliment I ever give. >> No, it's like when fatsos eat salad for. the first time and they have to poop and. they go, "Well, that's what my body's. saying not to eat.". >> Don't say that about Just because he is. doesn't mean we have to call him that.

name. >> No, I was talking about another story. He's called him fat. Oh jeez. I don't live in the gym. And guess what? In here, >> you literally live in a gym. You. literally joke. It was going to be so. funny. >> You literally live in a gym. That's a. gym. >> Ladies and gentlemen, JJ Walk. [Applause]. >> Good positive experience for Jage. >> You were going to have such a good one. there. That was gonna be so. >> There's about six that uh that that I h.

I've had on my tongue today that just. haven't made its way out. That's gonna. happen. >> I love J. I tell you what though, it's. tough. J talks about being happy and you. know being sad. It's like when his. Burnley team loses to Carol City. >> I know. >> And then you got Espanol doing his. thing. It's like how do you kind of. conflict? >> What's the Cardiff? Is it not Carol. City? Why does he keep saying Cardiff? >> Who cares? >> Oh, it's Cardiff City. It's Cardiff. City. >> Cardiff City. Legendary club. They've. fallen on hard times. They go by City. I don't think We are pulling for Cardiff. City. I apologize for the wrong name,

but I like the big win after Burnley. Who knows what they're going to go do. now. Maybe get up to division two and. then 1A and then one up there. We'll. continue for some reason. We appreciate. you all. Be a friend. Tell a friend. something nice. It might change their. life. Goodbye. >> That that felt like a good JJ Watt. Good. JJ W. Just sat in a pocket there. >> No Burnley shirt on. Didn't want to. bring attention. Had the Espanol hat on. USA Olympics. They'll talk about this. >> Yeah, >> they'll talk about USA. Good fit. >> Talk about Espanol. couldn't help but. had to bring up Burnley. We've been. following that team closer than anybody. >> Yeah,

>> I think Gage, >> where are they in the season? Like, how. many more games do they have? >> Now, on that note, we're covering them. closer than anybody. We don't know. >> No. Yeah, two or three, I think. Right. >> How many games into the season are we? Because we saw the Caribou Cup. >> Carabel. Yeah, >> they're about five in. >> And what's the Carib. >> Caribel Cup? It's just the English. teams. A bunch of divisions. >> I was scared to let America in. I. wouldn't want Air Miami or Portland. Timbers rolling around over there too. either because if you don't care about. soccer, you don't have the Carabel Cup. Have a division. What? I don't know if. Portland Timbers are coming out alive. against Carter City. >> Portland Timbers.

>> Yeah. >> You think Cardiff City could withstand. the Pacific Northwest? >> Cardiff City went into turf more and. took them down. >> Well, that's the problem with Carter. City is that if if the Portland Timbers. went over to England and beat a team. like Cardiff City, that city would burn. down and they'd murder everyone on the. team because they lost to an MLS team. So, they actually I think for safety. purposes cannot let an MLS. >> a hot Portland timber team. >> Yeah. Just and respectively. I get it. cuz I I mean they'd probably beat the. out of Burnley. >> No, >> the the Timbers this year, don't they.

have the guy? >> It'll be It'll be a KG affair for sure. >> Maybe for Burnley. >> I mean, we're talking about the Timbers. What about the Seattle Sounders? >> I forgot about them. Pacific Northwest. finest. Exactly. >> And then that team down there in. Atlanta. They're so good. They're united. around. >> And then up there in New England, they. used to have a team. They sold that. team, right? Well, they actually won't. let the uh New England Revolution play. there because they're scared we might. take their country again. >> Oh, you're talking about in England? >> Yeah, >> that's crazy. Is New England Revolution. still a team or.

>> H? They absolutely stink. So does. Atlanta this season. man. >> They're both near the bottom of the. table. >> This is the year. We're at the bottom of. the table right now. No. >> No. You're close. off, dude. That's bull. >> You're in 11th of 15. >> Well, is our guy out? >> Yeah, I think a lot of your guys are up. If our guys out then that changes a lot. >> And dead last is CF Montreal. That's. good. We like that. >> And second to last DC United. Okay. >> DC United. >> Wayne Rooney's former team.

>> Remember the night? >> Of course. Of course. >> I was entering this year into Miami. >> Are there teams in the MLA? >> Yeah. This isn't a real thing, right? This is not the list of teams. >> I thought there were six teams in the. MLS. >> No, it turns out there's 30. Is there 30. teams? >> 30 teams. 15 15 in each conference. >> The best the hottest teams right now the. hottest teams right now are Vancouver. White. >> How many are in that arena league that. we the boys come from? How many teams.

are in there? Eight. >> I don't know. They just announced a new. squad actually. I don't know where they. need to be. >> If there's eight teams in there, there. are about six too many. What are we. doing? >> No. What are you talking about? PST is a. good tournament filled with a lot of. great players. I we need the MLS to not. 30 teams. >> What are we doing with. >> FC Nashville? Uh remember they're really. good. >> Yeah. Pittsburgh Riverhounds obviously. taking over. >> Philadelphia very good. >> UC Salt Lake FC Vancouver.

>> So White Cats actually got Thomas. Mueller, legendary player from Germany. >> He's unbelievable. >> Who's he playing for? >> He's playing for the Vancouver White. Cats. It's insane. >> They're beating teams 7 nothing right. now. >> What? Yeah, he's scoring Hadties. It's. insane. >> He's got a gambling problem. >> He's one of the greatest players of all. time. >> Because why the hell is he still playing. soccer in the United States? >> Let's get to cuz he wants to It's not. the United States.

We'll be back on the other side. Lane. Keifin will be joining us from all. >> We need to get rid of at least 24 of. those teams. >> Agreed. >> Come on, guys. >> I assume there was only like. >> team six or eight maybe. >> What's that, AJ? >> I assume there's like six, maybe eight. teams. >> I think we all thought that. Then we saw. the table and we're like, that's a big. table. >> The hell a massive league. >> Every team that you've ever heard of.

having a team still has it. Like there's. been no moving. There's been no moving. on. There's only been adding MLS up and. to the right. More teams, more players. >> More explosivity, >> grow the game. >> MLS soccer. >> We did soccer. >> Quadrant. >> We did baseball. >> Mhm. >> We did soccer. >> Yep. >> WNBA's got playoffs. >> Yeah. >> Oh, yeah. >> Couple going down to the wire. >> Aces fever. >> If this goes in, Kelsey Mitchell's about.

She's a great player. >> Fourth time. >> This is for Kelsey Mitchell win MVP of. WNBA finals. >> Okay. >> She's been leading the fever. >> A lot of injuries to the Fever. Stephanie Whites got him flying around. >> They should give her an extension. >> Big one. >> Now, >> how's the deal going? They were. negotiating a deal and then we didn't. hear anything. >> It's quiet.

Maybe it's good. >> That's good. >> Yep. Oh, >> Kelsey, I'm so sorry. >> The team will take the award. >> Okay, good. >> That's how unified they are. All right, be a friend. Tell a friend something. nice might change your life. We got Lane. Keifin on the other side. The many lives. of Lane Keifin debuts tonight as an E60. documentary series. It's going to be. incredible. We'll talk to him about. that. And also big game this weekend. that uh might have a little extra. motivation. >> Yeah. >> Take five.

[Music]. They can run it. They can spin it. They. can kick it. This Buckeye's team is. playing football at a level nobody else. in the country is playing right now. [Applause]. [Music].

That's so stupid. That's crazy. That also take us off the we do. not deserve this. >> They all commit and love what's going on. in that weight room. They all commit and. love what Jim Harbaugh is preaching and. everybody in the building's happy. Everybody's like excited to be there. >> First row pressure the first row. Second. row is up here. >> It is infectious what they got going on. And how many owners are spending 300. million on a new facility just for the.

practice facility? >> This is the birdies. >> Wow. >> Oh. >> But then for them to do it upright for. the last couple it's like look out for. the Chargers, dude. Look out for the. Chargers. >> Hey, we got a gift for you. Oh yeah. Okay. So, miss your birthday and this. Christmas. We.

>> Oh, look at that. >> Your perspective on high fives is one of. the greatest things we've ever seen. So, we all have time in adventure. >> I love the high five. >> Yeah. Give each other a high five. >> Oh my god. >> Wow. >> Boom. We wanted to make you basically. something that you could high five. My. dad made it. >> Oh wow.

Feeling. boom. And that's I think we can get a. pretty good positive. >> Yeah. >> That is incredible. Obviously national. champion Michigan man. Greatest high. five. >> Yeah. Because of what you brought before. the high five. [Applause]. [Music]. Hell yeah. He tried to give a handshake to that. particular high five trophy. Did break.

the hand off. We had to put it back on. >> Yeah. Way to go. Handshake. >> Oh no. Oh no. >> There we go. >> We have so much respect. >> You guys just roll teeth. This is the. level. >> This would be level, wouldn't it? >> To be honest, we didn't know we were. going to be able to get 11 people in. here. And then we pulled up 11. That's. why.

11. >> I mean, wow. It looks like a lot of. highlights against one particular team. >> They played more than one game, right? We need. >> for one game. >> Imposing our will. >> This sucks. >> Party in the back. No one can beat me. >> No one out beats the husband. This might. be close. >> I love that Chargers Dean even more. Now, >> if you were to touch this grass, it. would feel as if the history of football.

was kind of one with your soul, one with. your bald, and then you look at the. views, the sand, >> Gabriel Gabriel, >> mountains, with the cotton candy clouds, the way the sun will rise and then the. sun will set and as the sun is setting. night, there's going to be a football. game taking place. You're talking about. movie stuff. What do you think it is. about your team in that locker room and. why do you think you guys have been able. to show up every week? >> You know, I think the buyin uh on our. team is unbelievable. We talk about a. player team. I think a lot of people say. that, but so rarely do you actually see. it. >> Two Goliath Big 10 teams. What a magical.

matchup here in the Rose Bowl. And. watching Ohio State do what they did to. Tennessee, it felt good for a North. It. did. It felt good for the B. My god, look at those mountains. >> Look at those mountains. San Gabriel. Mountains. There's the field. >> The San Gabriel San Gabriel. I believe. that means Snug Gabriel. >> All parties and all agree that it's in. the best interest of everybody in public. safety uh that we postpone the game for. 24 hours.

The JHawks working for the. [Music]. >> Hello beautiful people and welcome to. beautiful Pasadena, California, the. granddaddy of them all, the 111th. Rose Bowl which will be taking place on. the most beautiful field in the history. of football. The Oregon Ducks who are. the Big 10 champs will take on the Ohio. State Buckeyes.

The College Football Playoff is. obviously in the middle of a transition. era, but we go back in time into a movie. like setting to battle in the Big 10 to. see who gets to move on and who goes. home. Our UFOs just flew over top these. two storm. and in the national anthem and on a day. in the United States of America where a. heinous act has happened. It's a nice. reminder that we'll get your ass. You.

might take a shot but you're never going. to win and 10 for Howard. Same exact. play action drops it off to Jeremiah. Smith with space. by a Smith. First touch is a touchdown. Time shook. Oh, touchdown. See the split safety is right here. So. Will Howard knows his room. Looks small. Steps up in the pocket. Great throw. >> Takes a shot and what happens? Jerem.

comes up with the ball. Hand off to the. left. Jordan James. Howard time. Oh no, Jeremiah Smith's. wide ass open. Ohio State is kicking the living shite. out of the Oregon Ducks. If Jeremiah. Smith is on your team, I think you can. win every game. Tion Henderson. He's at the 30, the 20, the 10. Touch.

They can run it. They can spin it. They. can kick it. This Buckeye's team is. playing football at a level nobody else. in the country is playing right now. Yeah, there's a little snap. Rose left. rose bounce the right Jerem. So that's another first down. Thus far, this game has been absolutely. shining.

Oh my god. Oh wow. Wow. That is so beautiful. You got Matt Hardy. on the left there. >> AJ, I see it. The 47. Unfortunately, my. youngest son uh puked all over himself, went to the hospital, so my whole. family's not here anymore to hear that. >> But I'm getting some updates every once. in a while. He seems to be doing not. much better. >> He puked over the whole section.

>> Jeez. >> Instant urgent care. Instant hospital. >> Oh no. >> What type of shite was he eating? Is. someone making salmon down here? If we. came down here and smelled like fish. >> Look at this. >> For those that have never been here, I. would recommend coming and checking it. out. Although this particular game was. absolute. >> shoo.

>> Hey, why? Let's go. >> This show stinks and the fact that you. listen, we are very, very thankful. >> McAfee on the line with a gorgeous. assist. >> The alltime leading tackler for the. Green Bay Packers. You can't. stop. Damn. >> it. Friend, tell a friend something nice. could change their life. [Applause]. [Music].

>> Hello, beautiful people, and welcome. back to our hub of the boat. The. Thunderdome on this watch Wednesday, September 24th, 2025, hour three of the. program begins right now. >> Football, >> he's the greatest sport on earth. This. man is a nominee for the Pro Football. Hall of Fame this year. He's a college. football national champion, a Super Bowl. champion, a Ricard Cup winner, ladies. and gentlemen, is the father of 10, former president of Ohio, AJ Hawker. Hey, baby. >> The toxic table was here at Boston Conor. and at Tai Schmidt. Nine-year NFL vet. Darius J. Butler's here looking.

incredibly cool today. Good fit today. Yeah, >> literally from head. >> to toe. Yes, >> really crushing it. Getting covered up. obviously by Tone Digs' desk who's. actually over in Hammer. Don Don, that's. AP Tone and 9-year NFL or 12-ear NFL vet. and Super Bowl champion AQ Shipley's. here. Good to see you. You look fake. >> Good. >> I've lost a little weight. >> You've been getting after it again. I I. heard there was a little conversation. off air about what you used to do to get. in shape. AJ, you remember whenever he. used to go into basements and uh fight. rich dudes? You remember when that was. happening?

>> Yeah. said he used to grapple in uh you. know in small amounts of clothing in a. basement with some billionaires. >> Yeah, definitely shirtless I think was. the thing. And then what I wore as. Speedo, one of the first texts I got was. from him. He goes, "You should do. jiu-jitsu rolling in a basement one of. those." So, we learned a little bit more. about it all. You do look good. The man. who's about to join us is an absolute. icon in the football world. And tonight. at 7 p.m., uh a documentary about him. and his journey in his football life. will debut. Here's a minute 39 of what. you're about to witness. This might be.

the greatest sports documentary of all. time. >> Saw something somebody sent me the other. day. Someone was doing a story. They're. like Lane Kein would be the most. intriguing person to actually know the. real stories of all the stops and all. the interactions of what really. happened. I was like, that's probably. true. Yeah. That's why we called you. wanted to do this. Yes. See, >> have you examined why drama and turmoil? >> When people don't want to like you, does. that does that bother you? It didn't. used to bother me. As I've gotten older.

now, I just would like to change that. narrative. >> So, how do you do that? >> Three, two, and one. >> Ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is. a former Fresno State quarterback and uh. a guy that we're about to learn a lot. about tonight. Three-time national. champion, now the head coach at Old. Miss, ladies and gentlemen, Link. >> How are you, coach? >> Awesome. Thanks for having me, Pat. Hey, sorry we made you wait there a little. bit. Boys had to dump during the break.

and then obviously we uh got a chance to. run one of the greatest trailers I've. seen for a documentary in a long time. Which leads me to ask this. How was it. emotional going back through all of it. and how long have you guys been shooting. this uh for release? It feels like it's. very in-depth. >> Yeah, they did it this summer w with me. just, you know, over a day or two and. then I think they went to other people. after that. So I've never I've actually. not seen it. So that trailer is the only. thing I've seen like you've seen. So, um. it is kind of really unique to see that. and you see your kind of life play out.

cuz you've been through so many things. and um so, uh should be interesting. >> You're reliving it all is interesting. You know, like uh I've talked to a. couple people that should have. documentaries and I ask them, I'm like, "Are you ever going to do a doc?". Absolutely not. Why? I've already lived. it once. I don't want to do it again. That's a whole thing that has to take. place. I'm assuming with some of these. things, and you admitted it there in. your interview that you did this summer. that they did in the sitdown where it's. like, I've made some mistakes, self-inflicted wounds through it all. Has that perspective changed you this. season? Do you think you've noticed a.

change since doing the documentary about. yourself? And how has it been trying to. become the Lane Keifin that you want to. be basically through it all that you. kind of mentioned at the end there about. changing the narrative? >> Yeah, I really didn't know it was going. to be that big a deal, Pat. That sounds. probably crazy, but you know, people. come in a lot of times and do interviews. or podcasts. And so I just agreed to it. then kind of realized it was a lot. bigger once it started going. So, you. know, my my hope is that it helps. people. It helps people that are.

struggling or people that are going. through things, they don't understand. why. And so, I think what it does is it. shows a path that goes a bunch of. different directions. and things that I. thought were good that maybe weren't and. things that I thought were horrible that. weren't bad either. And so kind of. learned to try to reserve judgment when. situations happen of what's good and bad. and see what they are later. So I hope. it helps people cuz what I did when I. set out four or five years ago on this. change was I want to be the best version. of myself. I kind of figured my parents.

didn't have a lot of time left and so I. felt like I owed that to them and then. obviously my children and family and. players and so um I just really worked. on how can I be the best version of. myself to give to everybody and I think. that's very different than how I was. living where before I was living about. what did everything give to me and so um. I think that's really where the change. and still I got to continue to work on. that um all the time. >> I love that. I can't wait for that. message. And I'm excited that there's.

inspiration out there for a lot of us. that maybe want to change who we are or. be the best version of ourselves, but. are scared or maybe self-sabotage. I. assume there's a lot of potential those. thoughts that you're still battling. every single day that you talk about. Just know that we've all noticed. Your. skin looks immaculate. Yes, it does. >> You have a good glow about you and it. feels like your teams are benefiting. from the way that you're going about. living your life now, which leads to. this weekend. Huge one. I mean, absolutely huge one this weekend. How do. you feel about this year's squad? And. there was an announcement of the. starting quarterback, I believe, just.

moments ago. Right, Tone? This just got. announced that uh for the third straight. week, you'll have uh Trinidad Chambers. >> Trinidad Chamblas and F State. quarterback. I believe uh that was. announced. I'm not 100% sure if you made. that decision publicly or not, but how. do you feel about this year's team? >> Well, that's good to know. That'd be. news to me that the starting. quarterback's been figured out. >> Okay, so that has not been announced. I'll go down. I'll go down and tell our. staff right here. >> Okay. So, it's not. >> that broke it that that Trinidad's our. starting quarterback. So, um No, we.

haven't made that decision yet. I do I. do think we have a good team. Um we've. done some good things and and both those. quarterbacks are really really good. players. So, it's exciting to have them. both. Uh this is a huge challenge for. us. I think that this LSU roster. defensively is by far the best they've. been in a long time. They've done a. great job. As Brian Kelly alluded to, they spent a lot of money in the portal. in the offseason and it showed up. I. think you're seeing that in college. football. You know, I think numbers have. shown, you know, Miami, Texas Tech, and. LSU spent the most money in the portal.

and look how they're performing. You. know, this is a brand new defense um at. a lot of spots and they're really. talented, really good, and it's why. they're the third team in the country. >> Yeah, it's fun to watch uh Louisiana. kind of go, but it's also great to see. your team ride every time. We're happy. that you guys are back in national. prominence, mostly because we're all. fans of you, brother. That's why I'm. excited for the documentary to learn. even more about you. Go ahead, AJ. >> Yeah, coach, going back, you you. mentioned, you know, what, four or five. years ago, you started working on. yourself and and being the best you. How. has that affected you as a coach? Like.

daytoday? I would imagine relationships. with players, parents, everything would. grow through that. But have you are you. able to enjoy coaching more now? I I. feel like we we seem like coaches are. just miserable, miserable, and then. we're I'm relieved when I get a win. like it seems like a very tough. profession, but how has it changed you, I guess, as you've gotten older? >> Yeah, I think people that come around. here have mentioned that, you know, um. had a sideline reporter last week said, "You seem like the most relaxed coach. right before the game of all the SEC. coaches." Um and I think I've worked on.

that a lot, but I think working on. myself and being this version of myself. has allowed me to just get into a space. with myself in relationships with. players and coaches and people that I. just couldn't access before. if that makes sense. >> Yes, absolutely. More relatable. Yeah. A. little bit more of a human probably. here. >> Yeah. Yeah. Not not as transactional, not as hey, I'll get you to the NFL. Here's the plays that help you win. versus, hey, how are you doing in life? Like, how can we help you all around?

And so, I just think that that that has. helped. And it's not I didn't do it to. help. It's just it's helped. It's. created more genuine relationships. And. um I I don't know that that has to do. with winning and losing. I really don't. care if it does. Um I I just like living. that way a lot better. >> Yeah. I'm assuming it's much more. fulfilling watching the boys uh grow. their relationships and then seeing them. have massive amounts of success. You. obviously we've seen everything you've. done because of the football royalty. that you were from. your dad uh we.

believe we're like I think 100% sure 99%. sure created like the Tampa 2 obviously. in the entirety whenever you talk about. football and what that did to change the. trajectory of the sport as a whole. especially defensive football you. obviously on the offensive side was that. very young that you were like I'm going. to be a genius on the offensive side uh. did was there ever a time where there. was a thought of maybe I be continue the. defensive mastermindness uh of life and. how do you feel about the way you go. about running your offense you the. number we got is A third of your passes.

are explosive plays. That number is. outrageous. The 33% of your throws are. longer than 20 yards down the field. They're completions down the field. So, how did we get to this offense and why. did you choose offense? I think with who. your dad is is the questions that I. have. >> Yeah, I think playing quarterback helped. me move that direction. But I've been so. fortunate in that because I was raised. with my dad. So I learned defense from. him and I was always listening to the. problems that teams and schemes gave.

him. Then I went to Pete Carol for six. years as an assistant for him. So I got. to listen to him. Then I went to Nick S. You're talking about three of the. greatest defensive minds ever that one I. was raised with. The other two I spent. nine years combined with sitting in. meetings where they were talking about. what gives them problems and just kind. of kept all that information and then. created this offense and then added the. tempo part to it. kind of the the Baylor. style when um Art Browles came to us at. FAU and so that's where we are now and.

like you said the explosive plays I. think pays off. I think we led the. country and plus 30 yard plays last year. and first again this year and obviously. that has a lot to do with great players. too. >> Yeah, but I mean you're fun to watch too. sprinting your ass down the sideline. You get excited throwing oops to the. boys this past weekend. I mean, we love. you guys are an exciting brand of ball, which I think is why we're also pumped. that Old Miss all the way back. Now, at. the quarterback position, there's a lot. of questions, especially with an. announcement that was just made for the. New York Giants. Go ahead, DB. >> Yeah, Jackson Dart. Obviously, he's in a.

big city right now. He'll be starting uh. his NFL career being a starter this. week, but uh how do you kind of balance. you're at a program where people and. quarterbacks going to come and try to. win a national championship? How do you. balance winning on the college level and. developing these quarterbacks for the. next level? >> Yeah, our system really has a lot of NFL. elements in it offensively for them. Protections, routes, um different runs. and stuff. We just happen to go really. fast. And I think overtime defensive.

coordinators have said that, including. coach Sabin, that what Miss does, what. this system does is it gives you problem. plays, but goes really fast also. And so. I think that's helped our quarterbacks. play really well. It's awesome for. Jackson. Um sounds like that's an. official announcement of a starter that. you guys. >> Hold on. There was another Now granted. if we if he ends up starting I'm going. to count it. Yeah. On three was. reporting this. So it wasn't us that did. this. I just want to let you know and I. have respect for. >> Well, then it's got to be official. It's.

it's somewhere on Twitter. So that's. >> you got no. >> That's absolutely right. Yes. Uh Jackson. was awesome for you guys watching him. run. I think he got definitely concussed. at one game uh against Florida I think. it was if I recall. He's tough, athletic, the boys love him. I guess the. Moxy's through the roof. Feels like we. need that as a Lane Keifin quarterback. Is that something you look for? Uh the. personality, the type of guys that you. have on your team. Is there Moxy. confidence levels that you kind of uh.

either attract or look for whenever. you're deciding who's going to be on Old. Miss? >> There is. I I it doesn't have to be. because there's all kinds of different. personalities that can be great. quarterbacks. Um I do really enjoy like. that relationship with Jackson Dart when. you find somebody that really. commands the team in the locker room and. is enjoyable to be around and um you. know, even though we get older as a. coach, man, we still like hanging out. with people. And so, you know, you have. a alpha male like that that's that's a.

great guy that comes from an awesome. family, like he's great to hang out. with, too. you know, we go I I beat him, but you know, we go and play pickle ball. together. Um, you know, we've taken. trips together, so it it was a really. cool relationship and still is. They. actually have a buy and I think they're. playing at the Saints, so maybe I can go. see him play, but he he's awesome. I. talk to him every every week. >> You're a pickle ball player. You're a. good pickle ball player. >> Yeah. Yeah. I I don't know that I'm. good. I have a really good partner. >> Okay. >> So, that helps. >> Yeah. But so, you just hide out? You. just serve and then hide out and then.

the partner is taking all the kitchen. work or what? It depends. Sometimes we. play a one-1 stack, you know, like if. we're if we're down a little bit, I put. the great player and then you just play. behind, play kind of fit off of him, you. know, like a safety off of a great. linebacker. >> Where do we play at? Do you guys have. like a little spot there at Old Miss? Are you at a club? You at a pickle ball? Is there pickle ball clubs? I guess. there there probably is at this point of. this entire thing. >> Not in Oxford, Mississippi. Um, no. But we have a court right on campus. right here, man. We just go play with. the people. That's part of this whole.

Mississippi change, you know, like and. and really when I say you don't know. what to expect and what the plans are. and and I never thought, man, I'm gonna. love to live in Oxford, Mississippi. That's where I want to go. And I would. have told you the opposite when I was in. LA or in South Florida, probably. And. now I love it here. And so sometimes. just need a place to slow you down. >> Yeah, the Universal got you. You know, they'll put you in there, especially if. you're going to be doing some Pilates. Mhm. You know, I see you stretching that. lower back, getting the downward dog in.

that looked like it's a great time. There's uh you said if it's on Twitter, it must be official. We saw something. from your Twitter. Okay. That uh we are. all taking as official. Connor has a. question for you. >> Yeah, coach. I I love the stuff on. Twitter. Um I'm I'm really pumped for. the over this weekend. Go Rebels. Um all. over it. But one of my favorite parts is. actually on Twitter when uh you know, you you you and your shenanigans, if you. will, during SEC media day. Um, what's. your favorite part about with. Fine Bomb? Cuz I love it and it's it's.

kind of the best content usually out of. those media days over those couple. weeks. What is kind of the uh the. overarching fun for you in it? >> Well, I I enjoy the Paul part, you know, actually in that preview that you guys. just showed, you know, Paul says the. Miley Cyrus of college football, you. know, like and and he's taking a shot of. Miley Cyrus, too. Like the Miley Cyrus. isn't good. So I still say to him, I'm. like, you know, Miley S's still doing. pretty good. So your comment didn't. really like make a lot of sense. >> at all.

>> And um so but you know, now Paul's like. the expert on everything. And so it's. all right. It's kind of um it's it's. enjoyable when I'm on with him and he. just freezes. and he like gets stuck. So I really I. really enjoy that. Plus he used to be m. he used to be terrible to coach Sabin. So I kind of feel like I got to get. Coach Sabin's back, too. >> How do you feel about coach Sabin? Man, I'm getting a chance to work with him. I. love him. This guy is unbelievable. He's. unreal in every setting that I see him. Dinner setting is unreal. Production.

meeting is unreal. Talking to the coach. is unreal. Sitting with us, he's unreal. Leadership advice. It's like every. setting that I've seen him in. He's like. a machine of just like what the perfect. thing to do is. I could imagine coaching. with him. You know, in that trailer they. talk about those are chewings. Okay. We. ain't this ain't an argument. This ain't. a two-way street here. This is a one-way. road. What? Obviously, you give him a. lot of credit. you just did there. What. did he mean to your career and is that. going to be showcased, you think, during. this documentary? >> Again, I haven't seen it. So, but they. said he interviewed him uh for it. But.

he he was awesome for those three years. to give me that opportunity to come work. for him. Again, think about those. defensive coaches I said I got to be. around. Well, I got to be the offensive. coordinator for a national championship. Alabama Nick Sabin team and USC national. championship teams. Like, that's. unbelievable to have those opportunities. to learn from. And um I just take a lot. of both Pete, Carol, and Nick save and. what they did and and have kind of. combined it to what we are here. I think. we're kind of a real combination of.

both. >> Go ahead, AJ. Through, >> I guess, throughout all your different, you know, coaching gigs that you have. had. I know coaches obviously are always. moving around, but you've had so much. different experience, NFL, college, all. over the place. I guess were you always, you know, paying attention, taking. notes, building your book of what you're. going to do like as a head coach, wherever that may be, even no matter, you know, some places worked out better. than others, but you have so many things. to so many great coach I guess to rely. on. Were you always taking things and. writing them down? Like how do you. remember these things that maybe Nick. Sabin said 15, 20 years ago?

>> Yeah, I think just a lot of experiences. with them and then when things come up, I do it all the time. I'll have a. situation come up, decision to make, and. I'll go, "Okay, Coach Carol would have. done this, Coach Sabin would do this,". like, and so it's just awesome. experience to to draw back to um of. being with those guys. And and really. young with Coach Carol. And so you go. through experiences, then you get these. head jobs at really young age. And so. those are experiences, too, because you. screw a lot up. And you know, I say to. people, think how much better you'd be.

as a parent the fifth time around. Well, a lot of head jobs. And so fifth time. around, you you get a lot better if if. you learn from your mistakes. So I think. that's that that's kind of what I feel. like happened in my life and with. coaching. >> I think you were ahead of the curve. whenever you sent Janikowski out there. for a 76 yard or whatever it was. It's. like they're doing that now. Now guys. are going out there for 66 70 yards. I. think you were ahead of the curve and. the confidence you showed in the Polish. cannon is an absolutely beautiful thing.

I love that you did that. that I want to. let you and I hope that has a little. piece of the documentary tonight. Sebass. didn't hit that one clean, but if he. would have, that thing would have been. good. I think Lane, I I still think it. was the right decision. >> See, sometimes we're just ahead of the. curve. They just aren't ready for it. yet. >> And he had made that in practice. And. like you said, I've always been I'm. going to believe in the players. We go. for it more on fourth down than anybody. We run all these plays. That's not just. out of nowhere. It's because we believe. in the players and we put on them. Hey, we know you can make these plays and I.

think that's why a lot of people come. play for us. >> J, you can make us, right? 76. Got a. little wind in the face. That might be a. little tough. I don't This could be. >> actually Leler, the punter, is the one. by me and goes, "Hey, we got this, coach. We got". and I'm like, "All right, Shane, sure.". >> Shane's up for the Hall of Fame yet. again. I hope he gets in there. Goat, uh, I love everything about him. 76yd field goal. >> It's 15 nothing. Is that five field.

goals? Would this been the sixth field. goal of the half? >> No, but it might might have been. >> Could you imagine Sebastian Jerkowski. has the greatest half in the history of. a kicker? This one comes up a little. short. >> and then I'm like, "Oh there goes. the returner.". >> Yeah. >> Yeah. But the big play was made. Yeah. >> Yeah. Shane would have made the tackle. for you. Shane would have made the. tackle for you. Let's go over to H. >> I could feel Al Davis up in the press. box going, "If it's returned, this. coach, I'm firing this coach." I think. he fired me the next week. Anyway,

>> hold on. You were left on a tarmac, too. What was that? USC. Is that real? >> That was USC. >> I wasn't left on the tarmac. That That. just It sounds better when you say. tarmac. We landed and then the ad in the. airport right there in a side room met. with me and I was actually on the bus. going back to the the facility at USC. and because they sleep at the office. back then and get ready for the next. game and I and he called me. It was like. 3:00 like in the private airport there. and um that's where he told me.

>> So he showed up a little bit late. Oh, where's he at? He's already on the bus. >> We didn't want that to. >> get me off the bus. I had no idea. You're sitting front seat there. >> Yeah. Which is why I was upset at Fine. Bomb because that day is the day Fine. Bomb, it's like his first time on game. day. He must make this big splash, which. remember he was a Tennessee guy, so he. hated me for leaving Tennessee. So, here. was his chance. So, he does this whole. Miley Cyrus thing and the AD and. president are watching it like, well, we. probably got to get rid of this head. coach if he's like Miley Cyrus.

They get rid of me that morning. at 3 in the morning, whatever it is. So, M. >> and now I can look back and say, "Hey, Paul, thanks." Cuz if you wouldn't have. got me fired there, I would have never. got to Nick Sabin. >> And then Nick Sabin leaves down to South. Florida where you start doing your thing. and then all of a sudden we're at Old. Miss and now your name's up for. everything everywhere, all the time. And. uh we're thankful that you're back at. the top. Let's go to Hammer Don. >> AP Tone has a question for you. >> Yeah, coach, you don't mind taking jabs. uh at other SEC coaches on on Twitter or.

interviews. Who's your favorite SEC. coach to take jabs at? And who do you. play more pickle ball or does Hugh. Freeze play more golf? >> Um I think Hugh Freeze plays a lot more. golf and um and pickle ball is like 30. minutes over here, you know, like we go. over and play and and it's kind of. bonding too. Staff we players play with. the players sometimes. Uh me and one of. our coaches beat our two receivers the. other day. Come on. >> You beating the boys. Just beat.

>> I don't know what coach. I don't know. what coach, you know. Jimbo's gone now, so it's funny. >> All right. Um, last question. >> Harold Perkins obviously an absolute. monster on the LSU defense. >> Whit weeks is a beast. We all know that. We know he Yep. He is an absolute be. How are you preparing for this LSU. defense? What are the thoughts? >> Well, these guys are really good. As you. said, those are two great, phenomenal.

players. And. >> good men, too, from what I've been told. >> Yeah. Perkins has got to be the fastest. linebacker we've seen in a long, long. time. Like this guy's like Derek Brooks. or something. I mean, he chases people. down. It's unbelievable his skill set. We played him as a true freshman. I. thought for sure by now he'd be gone as. the fifth pick of the draft somewhere or. something. So, um it's really. challenging. They they do a great job. Um they're really well coached and now. they've got the secondary better with.

these three new pieces they went out and. bought. And so, um, this is this is big. time now. >> Certainly is. We can't wait to watch. your team. We're incredibly proud of. you. Even though we don't know you for. everything that you've gone through and. where you've gotten today, we can't wait. to watch tonight alongside you. I guess. you're going to be watching. Whoa. Couldn't even imagine the anxiety. potentially leading up to what 7:00's. going to bring. But maybe you don't even. have that anymore because it's the new. Lane Kein. We'll learn about that. tonight. >> No, I I really don't. I mean, I'll be. here working actually. And um and. someone asked me about that and they.

said and I said I'm I'm not worried. because when you're genuine and real in. the interviews and everything, what. whatever people take is what they take. You don't have to worry about anything. So, um there's no anxiety about it. >> Yeah. And I'm not going to add. >> there's more anxiety about this LSU. defense. I can promise you that. >> Okay. Re as there has to be. I mean, the. boys are flying around. They got a 6'5. safety, I think, and in a 6'3 corner. You talked about uh pieces being bought, which is incredible. which actually. leads to what is your thoughts on the. current state of college football? I. guess we should. We ask this to.

everybody. What are your thoughts on it? Obviously, you have to adapt, evolve, you have to lean into it if you want to. have success. What's everybody's rules? What are how do you feel about it as a. guy who's been around for so damn long? >> Yeah, I don't like it for college. football at all. I mean, I don't think. there's anybody that that thinks it's a. good thing that that players are playing. at four or five teams, you know, in. college. And so, I don't like that. I. don't like that it doesn't have the same. camaraderie in the locker room because, you know, everyone chose to go or grow.

up wanting to go to the school where so. many players are now, which is fine, but. they choose to go to a school because it. pays them more money. They don't they. didn't even grow up a fan of it. So, I. don't like that part of it and and it. gives the kids away whenever things. aren't going well. I just go on the. portal and I leave. So, um there are. good parts of it for the players. It's. great that they get paid, but um but I. don't think it's really good for college. football that there's so much movement. >> Feels like everybody's saying the same. thing. Have a great season. Good luck.

And uh you're one of the most. influential voices in the sport, so keep. saying it, brother. Keep saying it. >> All right, guys. Have a great week. Thanks for having me. >> Hey, thank you for joining us. We should. do this again. >> Yeah, this is my first invite ever. So, you know, >> that's not true, >> Lane. That is not true. You know that. Where's my SID? >> It's true. >> He just said it's true. >> Yeah, that guy's coming. Okay. Yeah, I. >> tried to come on. I think I've even. tried to come on. You guys like, yeah, we got bigger people, you know, like. >> bigger than Lane.

Get on here. >> Ladies and gentlemen, for the first. time, >> SID sucks. >> I don't like Campbell. >> He's a Campbell, of course. >> Yeah. Yeah. Same thing. This guy still. sucks. >> Yeah. No, he's great. He's great. All. right, we appreciate the hell out of. you. Good luck with everything. Thank. you for joining us and congrats on. finding who you're supposed to be. throughout this entire life process. Ladies and gentlemen, the head coach at. Old Miss, Lane Kean,

>> Crazy Life, >> that's going to be great. >> Yes, that trailer was awesome. We get. pitched things like this uh by a lot of. people, you know, like, "Hey, here's a. trailer for a documentary we're doing. Do you want to talk to the person? Hey, here's a trailer for a documentary. Do. you want to talk?" It's a very cool. stage of this show having that kind of. show up. That is much better than having. to which we still have to do every. single day. It's a process, you. know, and you'll take care of it. Soon. as that trailer came through just. because of my age and I think our age. like we have lived Lane Kein's Yeah. >> entire thing.

>> So for him sitting down and chitchatting. about it like very excited and McGee. >> is the one doing it. Now we're talking. AJ. >> I mean when I saw McGee pop up in the. trailer. Yeah. You knew it was going to. be great. Most people don't I mean I. forget a lot of Lane's the things that. happened with Lane and the tarmac and. the Raiders gig. Like Lane has lived a. colorful life as a coach and he's only. 50 years old. Like the dude it's going. to be great. I can't wait to see this. >> His football life has been in dog years. >> Like absolutely. You know for Tennessee. we see that with the Florida thing. Then.

show them nope that ain't going to. happen. Then leaving in the middle of. the night see I don't want to do it. USC. then USC becoming the tarmac story. I. was actually way off the tour back then. I threw the through the FBO. They. probably gave him a little food. actually, a little snack. Got onto the. bus, sat down on the bus, and then I was. called back off of the bus, back into. FBO, back in the private room. Then I. was fired, but I guess there was a. tarmac at some point in that entire. thing that ran with it. And then his. resurgence in college ball, all the. rumors, all the stories. >> I mean, it's just one thing after. another. Lane Keifin, Lane, Lane, Lane,

and Lanekin. And then now it feels like. he's very content. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Feels like he's very content. be there. for the next 25 years. Like that's how. it feels. >> Never would have said I wanted to live. in Oxford, Mississippi. Okay. Never. would have said that. Geez Louise, could. you imagine? And he said, "I get here.". Turns out I needed this place. I love. this place. His name is up for a job on. a regular basis. There's one in. panhandle over there, the Gus. His name. is up all the time for the Florida. Gator. Anytime there's a thought that. the Gator might be up, it's like Lane.

Keifin. Really? Lane Kein. Lane Kein. And then people are like, "Lalay loves. Florida." There's always like that whole. thing. Seems like he's pretty. >> happy with everything going on at Old. Miss. >> The rebel. >> He's very comfortable. And if he does he. have the backing, he has to. All the. players he has, he has to have money. down there. >> Yeah, they've lost a couple. I mean, they lost Judkins. The only one though. >> They are traditionally one of the. highest spenders um in the portal each. season. >> What were you shaking your head for? >> Maybe now I was just thinking NIL though. the I don't think Miss when I think SEC.

miss isn't one of the first like four. teams I'm thinking of. Okay. Who are. they? >> Georgia for sure. >> Bama, Texas, LSU, Oklahoma. I mean, I don't know if. Oklahoma's up&m like that. There's. >> You're thinking of&M before Old Miss. right now. >> in terms of money. Yeah. >> Oh, no. I'm not just name recognition. >> Yeah. I didn't know you were talking. about money. You were I thought you were. saying name recognition. >> Oh, no. But uh but same deal. They. wouldn't be like. >> I think Old Miss above a couple of those.

schools. You said. >> name recognition. >> uh for money. I think I think some of. those schools don't have a lot. >> Oh, for money. >> Yeah, for money. We're talking about. money, right? >> Yeah. I think there's a couple of those. schools that maybe over the next 10. years. We'll see what ends up happening. >> Yeah. And like I said, I could be wrong. It's just I mean, and they've been good. throughout his tenure obviously and they. need to kind of make that next step and. get to the playoffs, but they're still I. I feel like in the SEC kind of always on. the outside looking in. >> Yeah. The SEC coaches and people are.

talking about how much money the North. has. A lot a lot of money being talked. about from the north, AJ. And uh all the. North used to talk about is how much. money the South used to give to. everybody all the time. That that is. kind of what the that used to be the. combo. Now it's completely flipped. Like. we can't keep what are we what are we. these guys got big billionaires? What. what's this? What is going on up here? And then North was like, "Oh, it was. fun, wasn't it?" Whenever nobody was. allowed to do it, but everybody was. doing it. That's literally the two. conversations taking place. I love that. Lane Kevin's back in the spotlight. Ladies and gentlemen, let's spotlight. something that doesn't get spotlighted.

enough. Let's spotlight the big guys. It's time to go in the trenches with the. top five performing offensive lines from. week three of the NFL season. >> Let's go. >> Here we go. >> Number five. >> Number five, the Washington Commander. >> Whoa. Marcus Mariota, quarterback. >> Marcus Mariota. And they did not skip a. beat with him in there. And if you take. a look at this, look, look who's over. there. Right tight end. Who is that? >> 78. tonsil. >> What? >> Move him over and they only got a tight.

end over here. And they got they're. doing all the same stuff they do with. Jaden Daniels. They do not skip a beat. with Cliff Kingsbury at the helm calling. plays. And this guy in there, Marcus. Mariota at quarterback. >> It's the same offense. They had over 200. yards rushing. Rookie Connor Lee Jr. against Max Crosby only gave up one sack. and it was late. >> Really good group. Really good group. >> That looks pretty easy for Mark there. >> Yeah. Hey, if if Tonsel's at right. tackle, who's the caboose at left. tackle? That the left tackle is huge. >> Left guard. >> Who the hell?

>> Left tackle. Yeah, they had tackle over, brother. >> You know who that is? That's Chris Paul. They had two new guards in this game, too. Chris Paul played left guard and. Nick Aligretti, who came over from the. Chiefs, was out and they played Andrew. Wy. So, whole new unit and still. >> Okay, question for you. AJ Hawk, what. are the percentages of tackle over and. then running the opposite way? I assume. a defense thinks you move Laramie. Tonselo over there for a reason. We're. obviously going heavy. We're going left, left, left, close, close, close. What. are you doing? And then for them to go. the back way. Is that just not expected? That's what Cliff Kingsberry is doing. here. >> Yeah, Andy, you read that end, too. If.

you run it back, who's the end? Was it. 51 right here that he's unblocked and. you're reading him? So, watch the bluff. by the tight end. Oh, here we go. He. didn't know what to do. Like, who am I. supposed to take if I'm that DN? Good. luck. Great. But, yeah. And it this also. sets up for when they do want to run to. that overload side. It's good to show. this for a defense because they can't. just load up and say, "All right, they're they're running the tonsil.". >> Not just against the Raiders. We're. talking about for the next three, four. weeks, too. Running uh this week, right? >> Absolutely. Because this thing like when. you run a play, it stays on tape for. four weeks. You got to prepare for it. There's another play I wanted to show,

but he fumbled late and and gave up the. ball. But they had guard tackle pulling. left, guy in motion going right, tight. end coming back across. The defense was. in a blender, just stuck. And then. Marcus Mariota out in front like over. the whole defense went left and then he. just follows his two tight ends. Like. they're doing some really cool stuff. >> Feels like there's some play designers. and play callers that can make offensive. linemen better. The Washington. Commanders number five coming out of. week three. Who's the number four ranked. performing offensive line of week three? >> The Minnesota Vikings. >> Congratulations Vikings.

>> And let's start with big number 71. Christian Darasaw is back from his ACL. injury. Watch it again. We talk about. making it easier for guys, right? We're. going to send Hawinson through. Darasaw. looks like he's just walking. All he's. doing is stealing Trey Hendrickson right. there. Opens up the hole. Donovan. Jackson, big number 74, the rookie out. of Ohio State. Let's take a look at him. Put his put his guy on his ass. And then. let's look at Brian O'Neal on the. backside. Big number 75 Pro Bowler out. of Pittsburgh from Delaware driving his. ass on the ground. >> O'Neal out of Pittsburgh. He's not.

scared to get rough and tough out there. Kevin Okonnell, one of those guys that. helps out the offensive line. >> He does a fantastic job. All the guys. that come from the McVey system, they. understand. Cliff, Cliff, Kingsberry, McVey, Kevin O'Connell. All these guys. understand that when you make it easier, you're not running your head into a. brick wall like half the guys in this. league. >> AJ, who should we be talking about? >> Look at the center 65. Look how fast he. gets up to the second level. Here we go. All right, Ariel. Good luck. Run through. my body if you want to get to this guy. Like, what a It's so annoying when when. centers get up to the second level that.

quick. Like, all right, man. What am I. going to do here? >> Does a great job wheeling his hips, too, and hooking him at the end there. Really? >> All right. Minnesota Vikings number. four. Congrats to them. Who's the number. three ranked offensive line coming out. of week three? >> The best team in the NFL, the Buffalo. Bills. >> Best team, too. >> Dude, I like that. Number three. offensive line. >> Here, let me set this up real quick. So, they're going to make it look like they. are running zone to the right. If you. notice, they got back offset to the. left, fullback offset to the right.

They're going to make it look like. they're running zone to the right and. sending Jackson Haw back across. But. guess what? They're running same side. counter making it easy on the tight end. coming back across. Seal them fullback. around to tight end or tight end. fullback coming back on the counter. Pretty awesome stuff. >> Just easy yards you're saying. >> Yeah. What are the fins doing? >> This is what you do. This is how you do. it. Look, they make it seem like they. get him crashing down because he thinks. it's zone away and it's same side. counter coming right back to him. >> AJ, what are your thoughts on what the. Dolphins are doing? What are they.

reading? What are they misreading? pal. >> Well, I don't know. You put him in. It. makes it tough, too, cuz now the tight. end's coming back. So, he's diving under. the DN number two there. He's diving. under. Next time, you might bluff him. and go around and we're going to keep it. and go outside. So, whatever you choose, whether to dig it out or try to box it, you might be screwed. >> So many quick. >> Well, they're slanting. Look at the. whole D line slanting down. That's the. thing. You're running that right into. that that slanting D line. You see both. of them crashing down like good luck. They That's a good time to call that. play. >> So many quick decisions have to be made. Then we got DBs making tackles on. running backs. I know you guys love. that. Don't love that. That ain't what.

we get paid for. >> That's what we get paid for our guy, too. That guy. >> Exactly. Good coaching. >> All right. Who's the number two. offensive line in the NFL out of week. three? >> Yeah. >> All right. I I I don't love the two up. there. Thought there may be a different. number, but I like that they're getting. recognized. Three weeks. >> Number two is pretty good. Let's start. with that vocal leader you keep talking. about. I keep talking about Quinton. Nelson. Let's watch this single with him. and Bordellini up to the backside. backer. And then let's take a look at.

Tyler Warren. Supposed to go downhill, scoot outside, right shoulder, make a. move, spin. See you later, boys. Off to. the house. The boys a player. >> Yeah, that's what we do around here. Michael Pitman getting some late too. big, huh? >> I like that downfield. Quinton Nelson. and Borini are paansh quickly. It seems. like they're on the same page. Is there. anything different with this offense. than there was last year or is it just. more to this offense than there was last. year? I mean, Tyler Warren gives you. that added element. Like even right. here, like obviously he's in tight end. Sometimes he lines up at fullback.

There's so much stuff he can do. And in. this case right here, when you look at. this from the very beginning, he's. supposed to hit through straight ahead. right through that B gap, but then he. recognizes it and doesn't just run into. his tackle, makes a little subtle move, and still gets a great block. >> Yeah. So Jonathan Taylor has to just. kind of follow his blocks. >> Mhm. >> And that right there, you don't you. didn't see that in years past. It's. that's what gives you the home runs is. receivers extra effort downfield. Like. he could have stopped right there which. he kind of looks like he does. Let's go. get a piece because this could have been. a tackle. >> That's You're talking about a block in.

the back. >> Yeah, it was close. >> I'd be pissed. >> He dove and missed the. >> He hit him on the shoulder. He hit him. on the side. Clearly guys left hand. there on short. >> Good run by JT, but those holes are so. big. I mean, anybody could fit through. that. >> Huge. And it starts by having a. fullback. I talk about this all the. time. If there's no fullback there, they're out leveraged against the. defense. So when you have the fullback. now you can work back a guy and always. work. that that part right there that's the. special part. >> and then a celebration is sick as well I. will say AJ how do you stop it you don't.

>> you don't you don't stop it look I mean. look how look how many people he makes. miss like you are not supposed to score. on this play and he does this is awesome. >> Jonathan Taylor playing very good. football right now the Colts playing. very good. >> what a play by Clinton Nelson too like. what a great snap for Quinton Nelson are. you kidding me that's a great. >> and then he'll be the first one Donner. look at him bent Nelson Sir, I'm got to. get down here, boys. We did it, boys. We. did it, boys. Uh, I love everything. about it. If they're not number one, who. is? Who's the number one performance? >> Oh, >> okay. Hell yeah.

>> All right. I understand what they did. They had You had to do it. >> Fair play. >> Fair play. >> The Detroit Lions number one. And let's. take a look at this right here. We got. that super eye formation again. Right. now, we're going to go over and debut. AJ, talk a little bit how this affects. you guys, too. Because when you line up. in that straight eye, you don't know. where the strength of the formation is. And then they motion. So it like holds. the defense for a half a second. Now you. see them, they're trying to get adjusted. to it and then boom, you snap it quick. on them. >> Yeah, that's more so for a.

>> But yeah, you're waiting when it when. that that stacked that human centipede. eye, you're you're waiting for them to. shift down and get they could also snap. the ball there too. So it gets their. defense playing on the heels for sure. >> You talk about the soul train line, congal line, danc line. Look at them. They're still trying to get lined up. Oh, now we get the nose guard down. finally. >> And then they get everybody plused over. to the strength. And I always say it. whenever you run this duo play to the. strong side. Everybody overplays it. And. when you overplay it, what's juicy? That. big backside B cut. Watch Penet Soul and.

Rattlage open this thing up. >> Right tackle. Right guard. >> Right guard. Right tackle. Follow the. circle. Boom. >> Take him inside. Take him out. Look at. that hole, boys. >> Great vision. Lish had to feel pretty good. >> Missing Vanoi. >> I mean, what a moment this is for Penn. Watch how cool Penn looks throughout the. entirety of this thing. Okay. Obviously. going to have to get the edge. Let me go. ahead and create a hole. Follow my ass. I got you. And then he just throws the. guy to the ground. >> And then he just struck off. Yeah. What. up? That's what a day for Ben Asil. He's.

been a guy since he got there, huh? >> And he got the highest run blocking. grade PFF has ever given out in this. game right here. Wow. >> For whatever that's worth. >> BFF did that. Hey, really? I like that. Well, congrats to the top five offensive. lines around the NFL. That normally. bodess well for how your team's going to. do the rest of the year. If this follows. the trend of last year's in the. trenches, top five performing offensive. lines of each week. Number one, Lions, two Colts. All right. Buffalo Bills,

Minnesota Vikings, Washington. Commanders. A lot of good football. teams, a lot of good play callers. Detroit Lions. We we should consider. them be all the way back when it comes. to play calling, play designing, and. everything like that. This was cool for. me to see this week because last week I. was a little concerned after week one. Last week it was a lot of gadgets, a lot. of creativity, a lot of shifts, motions, making it easy on the O line. This week. they lined up and said, "We're going to. beat the out of you.". >> No, we're going to put three guys in the. back field behind. >> Yeah, I think that's a Johnny Mo. special, too, cuz I don't think Ben. Johnson ever did this. First time we saw. this and they ran this play a lot. >> Well, what do you know, Johnny Mo? He.

said, "I got three guys in the back. field.". >> That play near the uh goal line, too. They hand it to St. around pitched it. That was a hell of a play. >> Hand off, pitch, hit. Yeah, that was. awesome. >> Quarter change. Yeah, perfect. >> And go back to the second quarter. Same. formation. Ran the quarterback sneak. So. they set it up with the quarterback. sneak with St. Brown offset to the left. >> and then they come back and run it. Always setting it up. >> That's Johnny Mo. >> up. Congratulations.

There it is. >> That's tough. >> That is tough. >> Is that Sonic and Knuckles? >> Yeah. I'm not sure. I don't know if we. can get Four, five. Not sure we can give. Johnny Mo credit. I believe they ran. that last year, Foxy. >> What do you mean? >> Pretty sure I saw a clip of 2019. >> Yes, you did. >> Taesm Hill and Chimera when Dan Campbell. was with the Saints. >> Oh, it's a Dan Campbell play. A man can. make that pitch. A man does everything. for us. He's unbelievable, by the way. St. Brown. >> So, those three of Almanra and the two. running backs is just.

>> Congratulations to the Lions number one. uh offensive line after week three. Now. ladies and gentlemen, it's time to learn. about the other side of the ball. >> It has been a staple of the program. It. has made us all better and smarter. It's. time to go everything DB, good D and bad. D. Darius, what do we have? Here we go. The good D talking about highest rated. games by PFF since we're holding their. water today. 99.9. grade for Isaiah Rogers. Had an. unbelievable game. Had a pick six that.

we've seen a couple times earlier. throughout the week. And this look, you. get a little positive gain if you're the. Bengals. First and 10. Nope. Stripped. it, picked it up, and took it back to. the crib for his second touchdown. The. only Vikings defender to ever score. multiple TDs in the game. We've been. talking about this punch out. You rarely. see it from guys uh of his stature, especially on a big tight end, but when. you attack that ball, strip it, pick it. up, and then crib it, I mean, that's the. trifecta. He is a special special. player. Big addition to this Minnesota.

Vikings defense. And this is just an all. this one of those games you dream about. on Saturday night when you go to sleep, man. Big time game by this guy. >> I'm going to score two touchdowns. tomorrow. >> Yeah. NFC defensive player of the week. and obviously rightfully so. >> Very violent defense though on the zoom. in there. The punch out very violent. That linebacker over there was violent. It feels like be's defense humming. Isaiah Rogers perfect for them. We're. also incredibly happy for Isaiah. >> Yeah, he bounced back. You know, you go. through some He was suspended for. a year. You know, young player made some. mistake. Former Colt went and won a. Super Bowl with the Eagles and then was.

a big time addition here. Eagles maybe. even missing him a little bit because. they're still trying to figure out who's. going to be that other corner uh. opposite of Quin Mitchell. But yeah, he. he is making a great career for himself. Uh number. >> Flores. Lot of good D. >> Oh yeah, a lot of good D. >> Pause on that. But yes, lot you saw. >> Lot of lot of good defense. >> Lot of good D from B flow. >> Uhhuh. It's. >> just good D everywhere. >> Mhm. >> Ain't it? >> Oh yeah. Get you some of this good D.

>> Over here there's good D. Over there's a. good button. >> Everywhere is good D. That is what it. is. >> Good coach. Good ball. >> Buffalo's good D coach. He'll coach you. up on that D. >> Yeah. >> You got average D, he'll make it good D. That's what he did when he went to the. Vikings. >> without a doubt. >> That's why Kevin Oonnell was like KC's. like I need that good D. Let me bring in. Brian Flores. >> Yeah, he knew. He knew. No, that's what. he said. KC1 News was on the program. He. said, "When I become a head coach, the. only D I need is Brian Flores D in order. for this team to kind of make it over. the hump.".

>> And we will say Brian Flores's D has. been perfect for KOC. And it's been. sweet to see with that good old D over. there with the Vikings, you know, and. that's that's something that we all. skull. >> Mhm. >> Skull. >> Mhm. Skull. Skull about. It's hard not to. And then. they blow that horn. >> Yeah. >> Kind of blow your lid out. >> Everybody skulls. >> Yeah. Here's a, >> you know, a lot of. >> We're down with a good D. There. Is this. more good D here? >> This is a great defense. Whenever you. pitch a shut out in the National. Football League, I don't care who you're. playing against, it's tough to do,

especially against a divisional. opponent. Uh, Michael Pinnick Jr. had a. very, very tough outing against this. Panthers defense. You. >> uh, it's too early to say. Uh, Zack. Robinson, they made some changes. They. fired their wide receiver coach. So, that should fix everything. Wasn't he. telling Pennix like, "Hey dude, throw. this ball here.". >> You know what? Uh it's it's probably. something that happened in the in the. locker room for sure when something like. that happens. But um Smith Wade, believe. Yeah. Smith Wayade in the slot here. You'll see him in cover. Now, actually, this didn't start. It's great defense in.

my opinion. You run it here and then you. pause it right before he throws the. ball. You got a dagger concept at the. bottom of the screen. Uh and he Ray Ray. Mloud is going to be wide open coming. in. Usually want to hit this guy about. two yards outside of the hash. He. doesn't see him. Instead, he tries to go. to the checkdown to the flat late, which. you can never do in the NFL. Kenny Moore. had a very similar pick six to start off. the game against the Titans. Well, actually, run it back a little bit. Start off the game against the Titans. So, right here, maybe this is what. fooled him. And we talk about it all the.

time with quarterback development, showing him something pre- snap and then. rotating something different post snap. So, right now, it looks like split. safety, so possibly cover two, maybe. some quarters, and then you rotate to a. single high post snap. So maybe he. expected something differently pre-. snap, rotated post snap, didn't hit his. read, tried to go to a checkdown and. paid dearly going. I have a question. So. he put that person in motion. Uh they. put old buddy in motion. Uh stud, what's. his name? Kyle Pitts. >> Kyle Pitts. He put Kyle Pittz in motion.

Sn his zone. Yep. >> Okay. That's a that's a reason why. that's a teller indicator or whatever. cuz nobody's following. So whenever he. takes a snap here, should his first look. be to how many safeties are back there. cuz he knows it's a zone. Is that his. first look if you're a quarterback? >> Absolutely. >> So, as soon as Oh, >> he's got to see that. >> He potentially should see that this is. one right here very quickly. >> You going to see middle middle close. middle open. That's one of the first. things you're looking at for because. that changes the pass concept a lot of. times for the wide receivers in the DBs. But wide open and dagger you run dagger.

against damn near any coverage, you. know, cover two, cover four, cover. three. His guy, I like he's looking that. way. I don't understand why he doesn't. go kind of from the high to the low. That's how we're caught taught to defend. routes and he did a great job in the. flat being patient and then breaking. We. always talk about breaking on like. indicators, breaking when the. quarterback is is ready to pass the. ball. Uh breaking the egg some people. call it. Take that hand off the ball. He. was It's an oy looking throw left side, but great job anticipating seeing it and. then breaking and making him pay, taking. it to the crib. >> There wasn't a bunch of pressure there.

either. It's not like he need a head. scratcher. >> Yeah. He's young. He's young. Let the. boy develop. Okay. like Arch Manning. down there in Texas. >> Mhm. >> And DJ Lagway over there in Florida. >> Yep. >> Let's let these guys develop. Okay. We. don't need these short leashes all the. time. With that being said, >> there's a $180 million quarterback. >> That's right. >> And uh in backup. >> Yeah. Raheem Morris uh put that down. pretty quick. >> Pretty quick. >> Yeah. Kirk lost his job. >> We're nowhere near that. >> Next question. He did have a bad game.

That's going to happen. >> Terrible game. Terrible game. >> No good. Downright. >> absolutely terrible game. >> Yeah, it was bad. >> Let's bury the ball. >> Yeah, that's bury ball for sure. You. never want to get shut out. Young. quarterback, old or old quarterback, I. don't care. CJ Stout had a great rookie. year. Have been struggling since. Big. moment in the game. It's fourth quarter. You're down a touchdown in good field. position right here. This was a great. once again pre-nap disguise because. right now this looks like man-to-man. coverage. It's Jordan Lewis, one of the.

better slot corners in the league. paid. him some good money coming over from the. Cowboys and watch how he fooled. Like. when I saw this live on TV, I'm like, "What the hell is CJ Stra doing?" I'm. thinking it's just a flat defender that. was there the whole time. He thought he. had the seven route was wide open trying. to sell it over the other man-to-man. defender who would be on uh Dalton. Schultz in the flat. Nope. Baited him, had the vision, saw him go out wide, baited him into that throw, and it it is. it's still a terrible pick, you know, on. film, but you got to feel that. You got. to see that if you're a quarterback, but.

once again, showing a quarterback a. pitcher pre- snap and then showing him. something different post snap is. something you got to adjust and deal. with. >> He baited butter. >> Baited butter. >> Yeah, baited butter here. And uh. Jacksonville got a team. >> leading the league right now. Interceptions. >> So, I believe. >> Travis Hunter playing defense. >> He is he's playing a lot of defense and. he he he's getting it. I think he's. playing good. He has some uh some bang. bang plays with Nico Collins. Uh but. he's he's playing good on both sides of. the ball. I think, you know, as the. season goes on, a little I feel like. maybe a little lost in the sauce a.

little bit on offense. Uh right now it's. a lot a lot he's got to figure out a lot. on his plate. I wonder if they go a. little more, hey, just play this side of. the ball for the next few weeks, >> which would be dialed in. >> That's on Liam cuz he's he's he's. dynamic. >> Yeah. When he got the ball when he got. the ball on uh Sunday, I mean it was. >> Yeah. Should have been a five yard gain. and it was a like 15 yard first down. >> And then on defense, look, we saw him. covering this guy. He's a part of this. play here. fourth quarter. Obviously, big play in the game. He's out there. locked down. >> Yeah. But if I had to choose, you know,

offense, you talk about quarterbacks. being paid a ton of money, >> being handed the keys, number one pick, already got a second contract, new. coach. Let's see what we got with this. guy. And you don't want one of your more. talented players, not really knowing. where to line up and be because you. can't play. You got to be able to just. react and let those skills fully. flourish. There can be maybe some. situations defensively for sure. >> that you kind of have him out there. because he's obviously an insane athlete. and has the capability of doing it and. if they have a bunch of weapons on the. other side, maybe get him a chance to. get out there. >> There he is with the ball in his hand.

>> Yeah. So when you see some like. that, it's all right. We got to. >> let's get the ball in this guy. >> Got to get this guy the ball. >> Yeah. Is he returning kicks to what do. we uh what do we got going? >> Let's get him some touches for sure. >> What were you going to say? I felt like. you were going to say something. >> So ETN's also I think number two or. number three in the league in rushing. So like they have a very good run game. and their offensive lines drastically. improved. They got the quarterback, they. got some receivers. The tight end. Brentton Strange has become a guy. So, like they're pretty good. >> Yeah, they traded uh Tank Bsby. Um and. their backup now, Basil Tutin, actual. name. B H A S Y L I think. Tutin. Uh.

very good. Has scored the last two. games. Like he honestly almost. compliments ETM better cuz he's like a. shorter, shiftier guy. Whereas Tank was. more so just like a hey run right. downhill right through a motherfucker's. face. >> and Liam good play designer good play. caller right. >> great play designer and great play. caller. >> okay Jacksonville Mike. >> how how do we feel about the quarterback. >> Trevor Lawrence. >> yeah how do we feel. >> uh we got there's still a lot left to. see um.

>> I think I think his stats were 20 of 40. this past week 20 the Hall of Fame ML. >> I mean. >> first still there's just still too many. inconsistencies right. >> too many and there's also decisions that. are made that it's like that's a bad. decision. >> Yeah. Too many bonehead plays. >> Yeah. Like still maybe you'll miss a. throw like that's going to happen. But. like decision and miss throw at this. stage I think a lot of people are like. what when are we when is it is it are we. ever going to right that's all we're. thinking. But hey we we see it though.

>> It's there. >> There's moments of awesome. >> He's got like he's just got that little. bit of Ryan Leaf still in him. And once. he gets it out he's going to really fly. >> Just kind of like lets it loose a little. bit. >> Exactly. Just a little too loosey goosey. with it. Like once you zero it in a. little bit here, I mean that boy is they. might win the bowl. >> Liam will do that. Liam will do that. I. think I I trust him down there. And I'm. seeing a graphic on the back here that I. have not seen before. >> What is this? >> Yeah, Liam Liam's calling some good. to AQ's point. Yeah, this is I think the. first time we've had a quad box on. >> Look at a quad box. We got circles on.

people wide ass over. Is that. >> Yes. And it's not a good one. As you can. see here, it's probably difficult for. you to see them individually, but these. were all four of Caleb Williams. touchdown passes. Now, there have been. plays and there always will be plays. where people fans at home, hey, the guy. was wide open. Why not hit that one with. actually earlier this year with DJ. Moore, which was an adjustment. Why. don't you hit him? So, to Caleb's. credit, he hit the open guys. Ben. Johnson dialed up some good stuff, but. let's get to the tape and see two of. these touch. I mean, you rarely see guys.

open like that in the National Football. League. It's a flea flicker. Pause it. Cover three on any level of football. Cover three. What's the quarterback's. responsibility. >> in cover three? >> Deep third. >> Deep third. So that's letting you know. top down. So you do not have a run. responsibility. The only time you have a. run responsibility is if your guy. cracks, your wide receiver crack blocks, he makes the contact and you see the. running back downfield. You make a. tackle down uh 10 yards down the field. You're a deep third guy. Let it play. So.

once the ball is tossed to the running. back, you should not be firing up. Especially when that receiver is doing. that. There's no way you or the free. safety should be reacting to a handoff. or a toss behind the line of scrimmage. because when you do, this is what's. going to happen. And once again, credit. to Caleb catching his ball and throwing. a piss out of it in stride. Luther. Burton, the rookie. Big time play. 65. yards. >> That's a hunk. Yeah, >> especially with that toss back. I mean, that thing was in the sky. It was like. the toss he sent to exactly. >> uh Coach Johnson in the locker room. And.

then he puts that thing on the dime. >> Hell of a ball. >> Guys wide open. Obviously can't have it. Can't have it. >> You can't have it. But that that's. discipline. That's I like you're you are. a deep third player. So uh. >> I mean working perfectly. >> Learn from it. Yeah. >> We're gonna hand this off. Everybody's. gonna jump and then we'll they'll be. wide open. Like when somebody thought of. the flea flicker, this was the exact. reaction. >> Yeah. Exactly. >> This is the exact reaction. >> This is like a Friday practice script. for success. You tell the scout team. corner, "Hey, get ready for a run here.". And then you run up, but you you don't. see guy you see flee flickers work. But.

I mean, for him to be this wide ass. open, once again, a great throw from. Caleb Williams to take advantage of. >> Well, he stay in balance, too. >> The the terrible job on defense. And. this is another one from the quad box. Cole KT now. Y wing up top. Those two. tight ends. Always has to be some. communication between the flat defender. who is the circle safety there, and then. the linebacker who's going to be. relating to three. Sometimes even the. cornerback, especially if that back is. to you. It's got to know cuz one of the.

things we see out a lot of Y are two. seams, right? So right here, I believe. this will be like a a cover three type. look down in the low red area, run fake, running back bites up, which he has run. responsibility, but nobody takes the. scene. Wide ass open. You you would. think, you know, tight ends. I mean, I I. don't I don't get it. Like I don't. understand. >> The run fake actually helps him out a. little bit. I think the run frag. bringing three over to the twoman side. to the Y wing. It brings you like. naturally where you you could see that. vertical. You could turn and run with it.

a little bit. >> Yeah. Go over there AJ. >> I don't know what coverage they're. playing. I can't speak for what their. responsibilities may be. But I'm sitting. there if I see Y wing. I'm thinking I'm. talking to my backer. Hey, tell me in. the back is away. Pre- snap. I'm talking. like you let me know if you're with me. or you're not. If he stays on that side, I know I don't have any help. If he. comes if he comes over here to the Y. wing, I got help inside. I can drop one. back. >> Oh, I love that. That's Hall of Fame. talk. >> That is Hall of Fame. >> That is Hall of Fame Concrete. >> I don't know what covers they're playing. though to be honest. >> Yeah, that that's a that's a problem. Whenever a Hall of Famer, future Hall of.

Fame, you can look at the tape and say, "I don't know what they're playing." And. you see a guy catch the ball. I don't I. don't know if it's a defender within 10. yards of him from the 10 yard line in. the end zone. That you don't see that. once again. >> Caleb got real excited, threw some real. sauce on this thing. And it almost makes. it look like it's a he's not as open, you know, cuz it's kind of a diving. catch and it's a quick tap and. everything like that. it. I don't think. I realized how wide ass open all these. guys were until we saw this quad box. I. I was broached with the sub. Hey, we. want to do a quad box for everything DB.

I go, what do you want to do? And then. he put the pictures up and it's like, holy. >> that's bad. >> That's four different plays. That is cuz. you see one blown assignment. >> You'll see MA or Sure. >> whatever that happens. Four plays it's. happening. Is this on purpose? Like what. is what the hell is going on there? I. mean, questions need to be asked, but. you rarely The one we don't won't go. over. DJ Moore, they're wire. >> I mean, look at them. >> Bottom right. What? What quadrant is. that? Is that a quadrant? >> That's quad four. I'll say quad four. right there. Wide open in the middle end.

zone. Once again, no one near him. And. then up top right, uh Travon Diggs tried. to do a quick jam. Fell, stumb. Yep. Fell, stumbled, and Roman Doo right up. the field. But once again, the. quarterbacks, they got to hit them. They. got to find the mistakes and they got to. hit them. So, credit to him uh for. hitting them. Uh, and to stay with the. theme, two-minute right here, tie ball. game, divisional matchup, two-minute. drive, Trevor Lawrence, uh, Brian Thomas. Jr., he was on good D a couple weeks. ago. And now up top right here, these. two guys circled, Paul. So, whenever. you're They're running a combo coverage.

here, and I'm going to assume this. Whenever you're running a combo. coverage, a big key in running combo. coverage of the corner safety, we got to. be on the same level. Why? Because we. want to see the same pitcher as the. corner as the wide receivers's release. up field. If I'm at five and you're at. eight, we're going to see it and feel. the speed differently. And then you have. to have rules built into a combo. coverage. One of the rules we used to. always have, I I was usually on the. inside as a nickel or either a safety. If anybody hesitates as the inside. defender, if they come off slowly, I'm.

going to take that guy. I'm going to. grab it just to clear it up because. offenses do that intentionally to create. confusion. So if you have that rule. built in, that kind of will eliminate. that confusion. So this is CJ GJ and. Kamari Ler up there. So to me, if you. run it back to the very beginning and. hit play again, it looks like to me. number two hesitates like he it's not a. full speed release. So he kind of. hesitates them. So I would grab that. That's what CJ GJ did. But the. communication is key. We got to be on. the same page. I can't be right and you. be wrong or vice versa. So Kamari, I.

think he expects to grab that out route. and if it plays out perfectly, if you if. you saw five seconds ahead of time, it. will play out perfectly into a combine. I'll take the inside route, you take the. outside route. Because of that. hesitation, it up who takes who. And then you got Brian Thomas Jr. making. a huge play in a two-minute drive. He. needed it for the confidence. Trevor. Lawrence needs it. And obviously the. Jaguars need it and it helped them win. this game. But big time. miscommunication. I think it's not just. something that happens on Sunday. This.

is walkthroughs. This is practice. This. is meetings because a lot of every week. you're going to get stacks, bunches, and. motions. And especially when you put it. on film like this, you're gonna have to. deal with it week in and week out. >> Fourth quarter, two minutes, Trevor. Lawrence throws a seed. >> Just all the questions that were at AQ. Shots for you. Obviously, the Houston. Texans have a lot of questions right. now. CJ GJ no longer with the team. >> Yeah. And who knows what all went into. it. And then right here at the end of. the play, >> ah, they didn't show it, but at the end. of the play, Kamari Yeah. Kamari Lasser.

kind of goes and looks back immediately. soon as she pushes him out of bounds. And it was like it's not on the replay, but he gives him one of these like. looking at obviously the safety like hey. what the hell is going on now? We you. know in the DB room that might have been. a fine because hey don't you don't put. each other on blast but you're in a. tough spot because everybody that's. watching Kamari Lasser man you can't. keep up with the guys running cover the. dude. So it's a tough spot to be in but. communication leading up to these plays. you never know when they're going to. show up. stacks bunches.

>> Great release but you mentioned that. like that delay release when they stack. behind each other that makes it so tough. when you're at that combo coverage. You're right. Like. >> you you see CJ G CJ GJ he knows he's. jumping out trying to trying to clamp. that that underneath guy. But yeah, look. how hesitate. Oh, boom. I'll take you. out of here. >> Yeah, man. >> That's good play design. >> Yeah, cuz if they just come out and run. those routes same speed, it it it'll fit. perfectly in theory. >> We both have leverage. I take the out, you take the in. But uh when they come.

out and run it with that little sauce, a. little hesitation on it, everything up. >> Hey, that's good Everything DB, good D. Bad D. Good in the trenches. Hell. >> yeah. AJ Hawker, great work today, bud. Congrats on the nomination for the Pro. Football Hall of Fame. That is cool, dude. It is cool. >> As a three-time nominee myself, it is a. cool thing. But also, uh let's not let. it affect our lives. >> Yes. >> That's how you feel, too. Yeah. >> Yeah. Of course. Yeah. It's not. affecting Yeah, we're good. But boy, if. you get in, that'd be so cool.

>> How can it not affect your life? >> Yeah, you're right. Especially for AJ. Hawk for the first time really ever. getting. >> the recognition. >> and the nod of like, yeah, you done all. time leading tackler for one of the. oldest franchise. >> in all sports. >> Put him in a put him in a ring. of honor. >> No. Well, >> Green Bay, that's where it starts. >> He's all time leading tackler for the. Green Bay Packers. >> AJ knows there's not a whole lot of. numbers retired for the Packers. Well, and Curley's isn't even retired anymore. Exactly. That one out. I don't know what.

you got to do. I don't know if you're. going to be able to do more than Curly. did for the Green Bay Packers. Uh Tone, anything we didn't hit today that we. need to chitchat about on our way out? >> No, I think we're all good. >> All right. Why don't you come out here? Why don't you come out here? Ladies and. gentlemen, we are incredibly lucky to be. able to do this. We have a conversation. with Cam Binham. We're about to run that. we had yesterday. He is awesome. He is. incredible and we're incredibly lucky. that he's in our city and that the. Indianapolis Colts are good again. >> Hell yeah. >> Feels like that is real. Thank you. We. appreciate you. >> Appreciate you guys. >> Great work this week. >> Appreciate you. You too, brother. >> All right, boys. Be a friend. Tell a. friend something nice. My change your.

life. We're in this thing together. >> See you all tomorrow. Team on me. Team. on three. 1 2 3. Goodbye. >> Ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is. uh a man that has brought so much. positive energy seemingly everywhere he. has gone. Whether that's cow out there. in Berkeley, which don't love what. happened to Song Polit this past. Saturday, but I do love what they're. doing out there. Then to the Minnesota. Vikings where he and his crew on defense. had the most legendary celebrations the. NFL has ever seen. And they weren't.

distasteful or disrespectful. They were. just well thought out and well executed. And there was a juice to that team that. seemed very special. So much so that. Chris Ballard said, "Hey, we need some. of that." And thank God we did. Ladies. and gentlemen, a man who leads the NFL. in interceptions. I think he's top five. in pass breakups. And he has the. greatest celebrations in the history of. sports. Ladies and gentlemen, from the. Indianapolis Colts, Cam B. Yeah, >> here. Appreciate y'all having me. Glad. to be here. Appreciate y'all having me. in Indie, first of all. Um, yeah, it's.

been it's been a fun few weeks. First. three games, 3 and 0 here in Indie. >> You have no idea how fun these first. >> No, I bet I've been having especially. for us to start the season hot like we. did. I'm like, this is the best possible. scenario coming to a different city. And. I I could tell the energy is just rising. here. I appreciate the fact that um. there was an obvious omission of things. to our roster in this off season. It was. all kind of taken care of. We needed. juice. >> for sure. >> Okay. >> 100%. >> Bring in the juice guy. And the juice is.

awesome. We're talking every single. thing. >> I'm talking my shoulders are still. hitting from turning up the crowd. >> Yeah, we got boulder shoulders at all. times, let alone everything else that I. assume is infectious throughout the rest. of the locker room. quarterback. Obviously, we need somebody that's able. to be consistent and also operate the. offense and also has played ball before. and seen it because this is a veteran. team. Does it feel like that in a lot? >> Yeah, it feels like there's a bunch of, you know, guys that have played a lot of. football but also still young as far as. not a bunch of guys taking vet days, not.

a bunch of, you know, old guys that are. like almost borderline out of their. game. It's like kind of like a veteran. prime right now for a lot of our guys. And just being surrounded by so many. vets is cool cuz I'm I feel like a vet, but I'm only in year five. I'm around. guys like Kenny Moore, Buckner, Grove, all these guys that are year 8, nine, 10. And it's just cool being around that. cuz it's pushing me to a different level. of play. And I'm over here trying to be. the best player on defense surrounded by. these guys. And everybody's trying to be. the best player um in their respective.

roles. So, it's just making a collective. energy of we're all trying to be the. best and win. >> Bringing in Louis anumo as the DC was a. huge deal this offseason. We're all very. excited. We know Paison pretty well and. uh we've had a chance to catch up with. him whenever he was with Cincinnati. Obviously with the way it ended there, it felt like what is Lou Anarumo going. to do next. Our team has always had a. lot of talent. So we actually go to the. games. So a lot of people don't. We go. to all the Colts games, home games. Okay. We were there. I'm there where you. see it. And uh well, not all of them. I. guess last game didn't go last year. >> Well, yeah, but had proof point.

>> You've been to every game. I've been. there. I'm like, >> I'll tell you what, Cam, >> I'm the number one bottom fan. What you. have brought to the team is what I think. the team needed when it comes to leader. everything else. We'll get into it, but. Lou anumo coming to the uh to the. defense and then the signings that we. made. What have you felt with the team? Because we've always had talent and. that's the thing that was kind of. missing with the rest of national media. because we saw the team and because. we're here, we knew there's a lot of. talent, a lot of money on that team, too. A lot of guys have been through. their first contract into their second.

contract on the Colts. And for one. reason or another, we just haven't had. massive success. When you get here, what's Louis Anarumo like? And then did. you were you surprised by how much uh. talent was on the roster, especially. because the Colts very rarely get talked. about in that particular fashion? >> Yeah, I was surprised with the amount of. talent that we had just cuz it's one of. those teams that I didn't pay much. attention to. I've played the Colts. what, twice in my career when I was with. Minnesota. >> All right. And I want to talk about. those games. I'm I'm on the good side of. it now here in Indie. What happened? It.

was historic. >> We'll let we'll let Twitter come and. bring that back up cuz I know they will. But. >> Oh, 33 nothing. >> You were calling a game and you game was. over. We beat the out of the. >> Vers. That's what it was. >> Jeff Sar is the greatest coach of all. time. >> Oh yeah. Orange slices that happen. >> First half. >> Yeah. But but yeah, >> first half it was a good first. What did. you guys say? >> I still throw my shots. I'm still a. competitor. >> So what did you guys say at halftime. there though? Just just so. >> Pat Pete. So when you talk about juice, like me being the juice guy here, Pat. Pete was our juice guy that year. So he.

came he was in the locker room. We're. down 33 nothing. He said, "All we need. is five stops, guys." And everybody's. like lowkey. He said, "All we need is five stops." So. we one at a time often scored. We're. like, "All right, that's one stop." So. he's counting them down on the sideline. Then what do you know? It's it's tied up. and we're like, "Oh, wow. This might. actually work out.". >> Yeah, it might. Yeah, it might. No, now. that you're on the other side of it, obviously we're lucky to have you over. here. And Pat P, relax. Okay, we. need you to relax. Great leader. One of.

the best football players of all time, Pat and that whole thing. But whenever. you talk about you're an NFC, obviously. we're an AFC team and we're an AFC team. that hasn't made the playoffs in a. while. So, I understand whenever you say. don't really get a chance to pay. attention to him enough, but when you. get in the locker room, what do you. realize about the locker room? And then. also Louis Anarumo. Yeah, I think um. just what we realized in the locker room. is that we're a solid team. I think it. didn't come by surprise with anybody. Um. the belief I think and that's another. thing that Lou brought and especially. from from management bringing these guys.

in, bringing me in, bringing Mooney. Ward. Um and just putting this team. together that they assembled this year, I feel like they believe that we can do. something. And that started in the off. season just by seeing them making the. moves in free agency that I heard wasn't. normal for them to make in the past, having signings, big signings like they. did with me, with Mooney on defense. specifically. So having to really go. through that knowing that the coaches. and the the staff is on board with. making a change. Then you get a. defensive coach like Lou that's. aggressive. He's holding everybody.

accountable. He's, you know, he's. yelling at all of us as a vet, the guys. that got paid, he's holding us. accountable. rookies. He's still going. to yell at a rookie equally as much as. he'll he'll yell at at Buck, at Grove, all the guys that have been here. forever. So, I think that's really the. the standard that we have that no matter. who you are, you're going to be held. accountable, but it's going to be all. for the betterment of the team. So, I. think that it really created an energy. of okay, our expectation is to win. And. that's really it started in the. offseason by picking us up and really.

making moves in free agency. >> Oh, I love hearing everything about. that. That sounds like a winning. football team. There's a lot of. coming out of Indianapolis the last few. years that did not sound like a winning. football team. I'm happy they addressed. it and the big three their first season. debut Casey Kalin Carly is the. ownership. We got some major players all. of a sudden. Go ahead. >> Absolutely. You talk about a winning. football team. You need a quarterback. and Jones came in AR was a quarterback. battle. It's something you never really. want to be a part of when you're on a. team. But Dan Jones, you know, he won a. job and and we see why, you know, coming.

from uh from week one all the way to. week three, he's been on fire. The. offense has been on fire. What did you. see from him uh throughout the offseason. and then throughout training camp and. then obviously through these four weeks. uh not only on the field but off the. field kind of in the locker room? >> Yeah, so what I've seen from him well we. got we got history. He knocked us out. the playoffs in 2022. with the Giants. >> So he knocked me out the playoffs then. then last last season he was on with the. Vikings on the P squad for the second.

half of season. So, I just saw the way. that he was working. Even when he was on. practice squad, he was taking those. scout team reps, going against our. starting defense and he was he was. trying to dice us up and he was going. going out there treating it as if it's a. game really like having intentful. practices knowing that, okay, I'm I'm. using this time to get better cuz next. season when I get my shot, he's going to. take it and run with it. So, when he got. to Indie, it was really the same. mindset. He was locked in, extra work, um just seeing him long hours there, just always put the work in. So now when.

we went through training camp, it wasn't. a surprise that he was playing well and. just being consistent and just playing. good football. Ended up winning the. spot. And for me, I never had a doubt in. my mind that he would, you know, turn. things around. He caught so much uh you. know, negative negativity from the world. and the football world on the media. >> But it's like you see that you you get. in a place where they believe in you and. they have a collective belief and. support a quarterback. >> You see what he's doing now. right now. he's looking like the best in the league. and he's leading us to 3 and 0. Offense.

putting up 42 points the last game, 29. points a week before, 33 week one. So. it's like even if even if we're having. bad games on defense, our offense is. still would still carry us to a win. So. it's like at the end of the day, he's. getting the job done and doing it well. and protecting the ball first and. foremost. >> Yeah. You're not having bad days on. defense, which is great. Uh you're. talking about protecting the ball. Kanti, who you obviously know now, this. guy's a legend. you know, need to know. that Matt Ki is a legend. He's a Penn. State, too. Huge weekend up there in.

Abbyville. Uh, the Colts have committed. zero turnovers this season, making the. first time in franchise history the team. hasn't turned the ball over through the. first three weeks of the season. For the. defense, obviously put the fire out or. quick change or anything like that, has. always talked about them not turning the. ball over. Can you talk about all three. phases coming together, including the. punter who uh punted one time in a in. three games? >> That's wild. >> Rick is great. It was a good punt. Do. you know? Do you know how bad I wanted. us to go for it on fourth down. regardless of anything? I just wanted I. just wanted to keep his streak going of.

not playing. So, I was like, can we just. go for it? I don't care if it's fourth. and 20. Just go for it. >> So, my only question is this. Uh, complimentary football hits immediately. with a lot of new pieces. Everybody's. flying around. Brand new defense. coordinator, defense play spectacular. Brand new quarterback offense playing. spectacular. Special teams kickers. making kicks. Shout out to Spencer. Strader. Can't be using leverage on. guys. >> No, of course not. >> Know the rules. Yeah, you can't do that. That is illegal. But that happening this. quickly into the like brand new era of. this team. I guess the question is, is.

there still like long season? What is. the thought to kind of carry that and to. continue to build? I assume you all. think that you're nowhere near where you. can be cuz how fresh everything is. Is. that how I should be viewing it as well. as a Colts fan? >> Yeah, I think we haven't played our best. ball yet, especially I'm speaking for me. as a defensive player. There's a lot of. stuff that we left on the field. Even. with these games, we've had turnovers, pick six, um you know, strip sacks, everything we've had, but we feel like. we haven't played our best ball. Even on. offense, getting down to the red zone. and just kicking field goals. Special.

teams giving up, you know, an extra 10. yards on a return. So, little small. things that we're still like, guys, we. got to get better on. But we like where. we're at and I think we set the. foundation of what the year is going to. be like. first game, interception, first. series, last game, pick six, first. series, offense scoring the amount of. points that they're scoring every single. half. I think the foundation, the. expectation is set. So the rest of the. season, it's like if we if we're. anything less than what we've been, it'll be a let down for us. So I think. that's the best way to start.

>> We're expecting big 17 and like that's. the energy. We went to the the lunchon, the team lunchon before season before. right after training camp and we're up. there talking. You know, the leaders are. giving their little speeches and I'm up. there talking. People probably looked at. me crazy, but I said, I'm I'm expecting. a Super Bowl out of us. And it probably. sounds crazy from a new guy like me. coming to, you know, talk to the whole. all the donors and all the people. sponsoring the team and the whole team, the whole staff ownership. And I went on. stage and was like, I expect a Super. Bowl. That's the expectation to win.

every game. If we fall short anywhere, oh well. But my expectation is a Super. Bowl. >> Hell yeah. That's how we work. >> I think every team thinks that, right? Every team's supposed to think that. But. I think also whenever you see what you. guys were building at the time at. training camp, not a lot of talk about. training camp other than Anthony. Richardson, Danny Dimes, >> right? >> The rest of the team wasn't even chatted. about. Had no idea that Quinton Nelson. became a vocal leader. >> Yeah. >> Like. >> no, he's different. >> He is. >> He's different. Jumping around. getting. >> No, he's he's if a running back scores, he sprints to the end zone to go.

celebrate with them. He's over here. high-fiving the defense. Good way to run. to the ball. I'm like, you're on the. other side. You should not be happy. about that. like but it's just a. leadership thing that he's he's. becoming. >> He's picked that up your first year. >> I didn't know that. I'm thinking this is. him. >> Ryan Kelly was a center leader in. Minnesota. >> Yeah. Now he's in Minnesota. >> Two of our linemen from the surprise to. pay for you people. >> Yeah. To pay for you. We had to do that. whole thing. >> Shout out to them. >> Yeah. Shout out to them. Certainly. Shout out to them for what they did for. the Colts. But Ryan Kelly had been here.

a long time. Amy is the center. So the. center normally the natural leader of. the offensive line and also been there a. long time. So, I think maybe Quinton. wasn't like empowered to be like a vocal. leader, but I think he saw the way. everything was going. And I love what. I'm seeing from the miked up out of. him. I don't know what the rest of the. uh building looks like. How many of. those guys are there on the team? A lot. of people that understand a sense of. urgency. You think that uh. >> I think there's a lot, especially like. we said, there's a lot there's so many. vets on the team, so everybody's. comfortable talking, but nobody talks. too much to where it's like, okay,

you're doing too much. You're trying too. hard to be a leader. Everybody has their. natural leadership role. For me, it's. the lead by example, lead with energy. For Zire Franklin, it's the I'm turned. up, I'mma run through your face type of. leadership. Kenny, you know what you're. going to get. He has his finesse and his. swag and he's still going to be like a. leader. So, like just those three pieces. on defense with Mooney just being locked. in, knowing he's going to lock up lock. things up on the outside. Everybody has. their certain type of leadership. Then. on the offense, obviously quarterback. Danny Dimes, he's a little more quiet,

but you know, he's still making sure. everything is operating well. But Q, he's he's a vocal leader. He's running. to everything. He's talking like just. everything. So you get a little bit of. everything from everybody to the point. where everybody is like locked in on. their certain role where nobody's. overstepping their boundaries of, okay, this guy needs to calm down. He's trying. too hard. So it's a natural leadership. in in this locker room. Anybody missing. uh team meetings or treatments or. anything like that? >> No. >> There you go. Never. Huge deal.

>> That's an expectation just around the. league like you don't you don't do that. You're not late. >> Yeah. You would get fine one. The. money's one thing, but the embarrassment. if you miss it and coach puts you on the. spot. It's like nobody wants to be that. guy that's late and has to talk in front. of the team and give your excuse. this. off season, the transition into like. elite kind of operating and elite. leadership. >> is wonderful. I don't know how the hell. it happened. It might have just been you. coming and. >> I hope I had a part of me.

>> You did, brother. You did. I hope so. That's why you any of those Cadillac. Escalades you're going to be trying to. triple down on. He's got this thing is a. spaceship. Gorgeous. It might I don't. know if it's bulletproof. look. like it. >> It looks like it. Don't try Don't test. it, though. Yeah, please don't. Please don't. Connor. has a question for you. >> So, with the offseason, you know, bringing in players, it was also kind of. like a, hey, Shane Styen better figure. this out when it comes to, you know, head coach. Kind of like a hot seat. prove it year, if you will. Um, we kind. of called him shite stiken. We did not.

>> for a while. I called him we I may have. said it wasn't. >> We called him shite stiken for a little. Um, it's much different now. I I mean I. think we could even say maybe like a. sweet stiken, maybe a shine stiken now. because of how well he is. But as a. defensive guy, you've now played for. two, you know, offensive guru coaches. with KFC and Stiken. What are kind of. the similarities between the two? Cuz. for us, we always thought Stiken was the. guy, but you know, this is the first. year you've really kind of seen it where.

the offense is perfect, no turnovers, you know, guys are running wide open. What are the similarities between the. two, you know, on game day? And then. also just in the building because he is. kind of that leader, that guy on. offense, but as a defensive guy, I'm not. sure if you guys interact as much. >> Yeah, I think as a head coach, I think. uh one thing Stiken does well is. actually operating with the whole team. He'll sit in on defensive meetings. He'll sit in on special teams and. obviously be with the offense because. he's in charge of the offense. But.

that's one thing that he does well is. knowing all the players to where. everybody can vouch for him and be like, "Okay, I've I've had a conversation with. him. Coach knows who I am. He, you know, talks to everybody pretty much exactly. the same." Then on top of that, on the. football part, I think one thing the big. part of success is how a head coach. operates with the quarterback. just the. confidence that they can give a. quarterback and really putting them in. position to succeed um with the plays. they called you know just certain things.

little small things how you start the. game let's not go for a shot first play. let's get your rhythm and that's basic. around the league but I see in our. offense how consistent our offense has. been and it's been nothing flashy. everything's been just consistent and. you see coaches putting everybody every. single player on that offense especially. the quarterback in position to succeed. so and I think that's really what I've. seen from coming from Minnesota, what. he's been, what KO's been able to do. with the quarterbacks there, then coming. here, seeing what Shane is doing, it's. like, okay, that's the blueprint. When.

you really instill that belief in a. quarterback that they can do something. well and they can operate this offense. where the quarterback knows, okay, I got. this. It's it's easy from there. >> Shane talk to you guys during. practice or no any interaction? >> Um, he's fiery. I'm not going to lie. uh. especially during um joint practice to. the other team. He'll get he'll bring. the huddle in and like look at all of us. in the eyes like you know he'll say some. crazy stuff like let's go we got to we. got to run through this team like so. like he he's he's a competitor that's. one thing I love about Shane like he's.

an ultra competitor and he's he's. exciting like he gets turned up lie. >> I like to hear that one of those guys he. say shoot and dag dumb and stuff and you. never really know. >> good shoes gracious to Pete. >> yeah all that stuff you never really. know what's in the soul but he was with. Phil Rivers remember and we remember. Phil Rivers being one of the greatest. talkers in the history of sport. without ever swearing. What was that? 98. yard touchdown to that Dax. >> He got kind of helped him.

>> Yeah. >> I think that was uh Ingquay who who. played here for a for a little bit. >> That's what I'm saying. So if Shane. Stikens got that in him, I didn't know. we had that on Saturday. >> Shane's a dog. I'm not going to lie. Vine, you have to come to the locker. room one day. I doubt Shane's a dog. >> They will not let you in there. >> Yeah, we got some trade pieces. >> Keep scoring touchdowns. more than two. >> Uh Ty has a question for you. >> You mentioned you the expectations 17. and0 and winning a Super Bowl. And I. know that this is your first year, so I. don't know how much you got to meet Mr. Ers or what your relationship was like.

with him before he passed away, but. >> looking at it, it seems like almost, you. know, like what's happened so far early. here, like it you guys are being lifted. by like a higher power or like there's. something else going on there. like the. vibes are great and I understand it's a. week toeek league but like. >> early right now as you look at it does. it feel like you know what this actually. does feel a little bit more special. maybe than like some of my other seasons. in the league because I don't know if. you realize this but like if you guys do. do that if you win a Super Bowl like. there is a thousand% going to be a movie.

made about this season. >> rest in peace to the. so maybe also start thinking about who. you'd want uh to play you in that movie. as well but does it feel. >> I might have to be in it myself just. film in an offseason but um can. definitely make that happen. Good. charisma, good mantra. >> I would easily do that. But yeah, I. think um really just the whole, you. know, I I was never able to meet him, but I feel like I've known him because. I've obviously met all the daughters, Carly, and all the all the sisters. And. you see how they operate things and how. how well they treat people and really. just the whole franchise of how it's.

really a family business. And it was a. surprise to me when I got here, like how. much I felt like I was at home and being. like with a family. And that that's. something that struck me as soon as I. got there. I was like, "Wow, it feels. like I've been here for a while." And. really that started with the ownership. and how involved they are in a good way. Never overstepping their boundaries, never doing too much, but being involved. where you're like, "Okay, I can respect. how much you actually care about this. team." And you're not just, you know, a. rich person that buys a team and just,

"All right, y'all figure it She's in. there learning football, learning. coverages, asking us questions, not cuz. she's trying to be, you know, overstepping like I said, but really. genuine, genuinely curious of, okay, how. does this football stuff work? So, when. she's on the sideline, she's locked in. and really doing that. Um, just like I. said, just trying to learn just out of. love for the team and love for the game. And I see where it comes from of her dad. and all the stories that I hear of like. how much he really loved on every single. person and how you know all the stories. you hear about he took care of every.

single person that needed something and. more. So um I think this year we're for. sure we're having that in the back of. our mind like we want to honor their. family by playing hard and just doing. things the right way. Just playing ball. just practicing hard and everything will. fall in this place. cuz I know I'm going. to say 17 and0, but it's the NFL. Like, you never know what can happen, but we. want to go out every single day and be. okay with the work that we put in and. take pride in every single thing that we. put in and knowing that, okay, they. they're putting us in position to have.

everything that we need with the good. ownership with, you know, taking care of. everything so we can just go play ball. at a high level. And that's really our. only goal is to honor them with the way. we work. >> Love to hear that. Love everything. you're saying. And I think that's a good. call about the family environment. A lot. of those people not. And I thought it. was a smart play by you not to try to. name all three names because if you get. one wrong, you're in a bad spot. Carly, Kaylin, and Casey are the three. daughters. >> I know the names. I know. >> Yeah. Of course. Of course. Of course. Yeah. I don't want to stutter. >> Yeah. Yeah. Smart. And also, don't leave. >> Yeah. Don't leave someone. >> Yeah. You're early in the here. You did.

the right play. Yeah. The big three. The. big three. The big three up there. The. big three. But they've been around it. their whole life, obviously, just like. Jim has. But the people in that. building, a lot of them that are in very. powerful positions, whether it's in uh. business marketing or treatment or. equipment room, all that different. place, they've been been there since. like 1987 whenever the team came here. from crazy. Yeah. So, you're talking. about a lot of history, a lot of. different eras of the culture. >> That says a lot. like the fact that. people want to stay there for that long. in a place where you know there's been.

ups and downs in the franchise but for. them to stay steady and still love the. city the. >> there's been a lot of downs as of late. I'm just going to say it I've been. asking for the hat of the group. he's a Patriots fan I'm a Patriots fan. but also I mean I live in the city okay. I'm I'm I'm damn near paying for the. place you're working so I mean just. >> he's paying his taxes it's not like I'm. just some guy like oh I at the Colts. I'm I'm donating to the dam. Okay. So, yeah. If I eat every day.

>> Exactly. I'll I'll But. >> also at every game. >> Also at every game and to that point. like it's been this has been the best. environment the Loud House has had in I. mean shoot five since I've been here for. since 2018 whenever. Uh do you feel that. is it similar to Minnesota? Cuz. Minnesota also we we love the skull. We. think that's one of the coolest things. fun. First of all, all the Colts fans, we have to come up with a chant to do in. the stadium that I'm going to put that. on you, Pat. You got to come up with. something whether you get on the mic. before every game. We need We need.

something to turn up the whole stadium. But no, I feel like especially that that. um Denver game, >> you know, first game, the fans are. feeling us out. Okay, what's the season. going to be like? Okay, successful game. But the second game, home game in a row, that's the first time I felt like, okay, this is this is different here in. Indianapolis. And it's not obviously I. knew there was good things about Lucas. Oil, but obviously I played in. Minnesota, so I knew that that's one of. the best environments, but that it. paralleled Minnesota playing that game,

that Denver game, especially how the. game ended. >> It was one of those times where I'm. like, "All right, I actually have to. speak up on defense." And I I could. barely hear myself talk to my teammates. >> Okay, let's keep that going. >> Let's keep that going. >> So fans, we have to keep showing up. >> Players, we got to keep making plays. >> Players, we got to keep winning. >> We got to keep winning everything. We. got to keep going to team meetings on. time. Yeah, we gota let's do the. process. Let's do it all. But I think. what we saw week one when you guys came. out as a team. >> Thought that was sick. >> So cool. >> I love that. Thought you were maybe.

going to do that all year. Thought maybe. that was going to be the thing, but that. was for the boss. I respect it. So then. you guys do the introduction for the. second game. I'm like a I hope we're not. >> breaking a tradition. >> And then you guys crushed and it was. like. >> like at this point it doesn't matter. what we do, we're going to come out and. play. Colts fans are waiting for this. Like the the loud house in Lo Stadium. are waiting for this because you got to. remember the run with Payton and the. boys. >> that I was very lucky to be a part of. Then Andrew Luck that run it was like. expectations were like. >> super super bowl super. >> and then we weren't making the playoffs.

We haven't won AFC South in what 11. years or something like that. I think. it's 11 or 12 years. Haven't won AFC. South. And people talk about divisions. and it's like all those things just. started piling up I think on Colts fans. So whenever we start hearing why this. shit's happening from behind the scenes, and I don't want to say I speak for. everybody because there's certainly a. lot of people on the internet who. disagreed with me at the time. They. don't know ball, but now it is like. everything we had hoped for, >> right? >> And you're a massive piece of that is. kind of coming to fruition. And just. know that this city, this state, and uh. everybody will be around you and rally. around you and we'll enjoy the hell out.

of the run alongside of you. So if you. want to go ahead and do more dances with. Blue, you do it. I will. >> It's going to get more It's going to get. more extra extravagant, however you say. that. Extravagant. Yeah. Yeah. Put a K. in there. Yeah. Certainly. Um I was told. potentially from source that that was. not a planned out celebration right. there. >> I I had that in the back of my mind. Do. a celebration with Blue, >> but we were supposed to do a group. celebration there. >> with um Z and Kenny, but I saw Blue.

there. So, I'm like, "All right, the. energy is up. Blue is right here. I'm. doing the hip thrust.". >> Yeah. >> And I got away with the fine cuz I don't. know how I did not get fined. Well, that's cuz Blue is throwing his. >> Yeah, Blue's thrusting way harder than I. was. I'm He got it. Find a mascot. Not. me. >> Well, Blue's Blue is certainly throwing. that thing. >> and he will Hey, Blue is one of the best. mascots in all of sport. So, best ever. >> Yeah, he is. And he he's hot on the. football throw from the second level. >> I don't know how he's made it every.

single time I've seen him do it. Yes. I'm like, that's actually crazy. Well, there's a game to it here because. sometimes he'll make it too quick and. people like everybody take a look at the. window. Blue is throwing from the sky, you know, and everybody as people are. trying to figure out what's happening. and he makes it on like the second. throw. It's already over. Nobody even. knows what happened. So then, so there's. a fine line there where he's got a. lethal shooter it a little bit. He's got. to miss and understand it, but then he's. also Yeah, exactly. So there's a little. bit of that happening, but he's an.

incredible athlete. This one where you. start bouncing around. I was hoping for. the kip up at the end like old buddy did. in the original. >> See my my foot slipped cuz I I wanted to. be dramatic and go for like 20 more. yards. >> just up the whole sideline in front of. the Dolphins. But my foot slipped on the. turf. I was like, "All right, I got to. cut it. Let me high five everybody." So. getting my my shoulder raises in. >> How many in the back of your mind at all. times? Celebrations. I got three a week. in case. >> I need a solo. >> because I in case a teammate that I plan.

a group celebration with doesn't make it. to the end zone. I got to hit my solo. Then I have got to have like a specific. one with like me and Kenny or in. Minnesota was me and Matelis. >> Then I need a full team one. So every. week I'm going in there with three on my. mind. >> Chuck Pagano says have a plan. >> Have a plan cuz we expect to take the. ball. >> Bingo. >> first and foremost.
