Speaker 3 (01:25):
Off yesterday at this time.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
My gosh, see, Kyle, you went with a certain blend
for this hat. I was going more Nick Saban Cam
Newton blend, and that's where I landed for this hat.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Is this a typical look for you?
Speaker 6 (01:36):
You know what?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I started getting into the hats a little bit more.
I'm sure some guys have seen the footage on Twitter.
We had a karaoke night when we were in Tahoe, yep,
and I got this just so you know, played my role.
I went full out for doing a little shaboozi, so
I thought I bring it out here too.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
Perfect. It's perfect. So you mentioned you were in Tahoe.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
You you were participating in the tournament up there.
Speaker 6 (01:59):
How was it the.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
American Century Championship?
Speaker 6 (02:01):
It was?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
It was so sick. I got to pretend to be
a professional golfer for a couple of days. It's crowd's
line and everything up well. Seventeen is just nuts, great glass.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
That's perfect.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Well, it's awesome to have you here, and we're going
to open it up a little bit. We're going to
talk about your stands, but the rest of the thirty
one as well.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
All right, sounds good?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Okay, So if you're going to talk about the entire
league right now, you got to look squarely at the
quarterback room in Cleveland, because we're still trying to figure
out what the Browns are doing. Even though that rookies
haven't reported to camp yet, Cleveland is already bunting about
Shadur Sanders and the quarterback situation that Cleveland has to
decide upon. The stories range anywhere from Shador being fourth
(02:37):
on the depth chart behind fellow rookie Gill Dylan Gabriel,
to one local publication pitching that Shadar Sanders is going
to get traded, which then led to our favorite type
of tweet, which is a cryptic one from Shadur Sanders
saying time will tell with the thinking emoji face. And
I love translating the emoji faces of the youth, I
(02:57):
really do.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
It's like one of my favorite things.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Browns rookies report to training camp on Friday, so how
do we assess what we know about the quarterback room
as we see it in Cleveland?
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Right now? Should you ur?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Sanders included and his social media activation included justin I'll
start with you.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
When you saw this thing go down in Cleveland, how.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Does it make you feel to see a quarterback room
like that?
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Yeah. One of the problems with having a room that has,
you know, three, four, in this situation, five quarterbacks is
sometimes when you have five quarterbacks, you don't really have
any quarterbacks, you know what I mean, Because it's like
there's not enough time to split the pie and see
what goes around. So some of these guys are going
to have to start raising to the top and they
have some time, they have some decisions to make, and
(03:37):
now they just have to see what happens.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
Yeah, it's a lot of decisions to make. There's a
lot of options. To your point, justin, I think nobody knows.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Yeah, I've seen so many publications that should do should
be the starter? He's not even going to make the
roster all of this at the end of the day.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
Nobody knows. But what we do know is this, it's
off season.
Speaker 7 (03:53):
You just went to OTA's and minicamp and justin you
know this, guys doing OTA's and minicamp, they're going to
go golf after practice, They're going to go play pick
a ball off the practice. They're taking their kids at
keyball practice aftertas you're going, you're about to go into
training camp, and time will tell. Because training cap somebody's
trying to take somebody's job, and it gets very very serious.
(04:15):
The speed of the game gets gets quickened a little bit,
it speeds up a little bit, the margin for error
gets smaller, and so it's gonna it's gonna be something
for us to pay really close attention to because this
is gonna be the next transition for not only Shoulder,
but every quarterback in the NFL.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
Going into training camp.
Speaker 7 (04:32):
It's a different speed, there's more on the line, and
it's something that we got to pay attention to.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
It's hard to know what you got into the past exactly.
You don't really know what you got.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
I'm seeing that, Yep, there's never been a group like that.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
And I don't mean just in terms of talent or personality,
just I mean it's just such a strange mix of
experience and injury and infamy and rookies and new guys.
I've never seen it before, and from the second they
drafted Shader Sanders, I've still asked the question is should
do We're definitely gonna make this team, Like normally a
fifth round rookie quarterback will make the roster, but they've
(05:06):
never had the situation before. Flacco is Flacco Pickett. You
just traded real value for You wouldn't want to cut him,
And then why would you keep the fifth round rookie
and cut or trade a third round rookie unless he
wildly outplayed him? And that brings me to that. He says,
time will tell. What I would love to say to
Shador is your play will tell.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
Do you get any reps?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Is he gonna even see any real legitimate reps to
show anything? He's fourth on the depth chart, maybe third
if we take Deshaun Watson out of it. I don't
think he's gonna get to be seen a lot and
show off anything. And if he is, it's because Dylan
Gabriel is nothing, and he's like, what the hell, I'm
two rounds ahead of you. Didn't you guys like me?
You'd like me, like sixty picks more than this guy.
(05:49):
Why because he's famous. It's so interesting. I think there's
a real possibility that if if his name was Shadur Smith,
he wouldn't make the team. But it's also this big
glistening object that's such a different kind of ensity that
will that keep him on the team. Really, I have
no idea since the draft ended how this is going
to shake out, And three months later, I still don't
know what.
Speaker 6 (06:09):
A bottom line.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
And I think you hit it right on ahead after
the draft. I thought it personally, he's responded the best
of the way any guy should respond out of a
situation like that.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
You talk about.
Speaker 8 (06:18):
Winning in the media, showing up to schools right, talking
to the kids, working hard, working after practice, being a
locker room, and god really immersing himself into the Browns culture.
I thought he's done a great job in that regard.
But I gotta agree with Manta when you see OTAs
and you see spring training is good, but.
Speaker 6 (06:36):
You can't make the club in shorts.
Speaker 8 (06:38):
It comes down to pads and hard work and when
training camp shows up, it's all about how you respond
to the competition. And for me, if I'm sure saying
is moving forward, Man, I don't have any friends right.
This whole quarterback room, you guys on My Enemy is
about this guy taking charge of his own career and
his own story. And it starts day one in training camp.
So I love the tweets, I love everything he's done
(06:58):
thus far, but he has to have a mercenary and
a Sash's type attitude.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
Everybody can get it ducking no smoke.
Speaker 8 (07:05):
And I think if he takes that approach and he
goes into camp, say hey man, I'm about to like
this thing up. And because I'm not only the son
of Prime Tom Sanders, because I'm sure door standers, and
it's time for him to make his own name.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
And while that is a wonderful mindset to have, really,
if he wants to go out and get that job,
don't you feel like we would have heard reports about
this in practice or maybe a rookie mini camp, that
if he was really excelling in a way that was
going to set him far and ahead of Dylan Gabriel,
that we would have heard about it by now.
Speaker 6 (07:32):
No listen, because what are you going to report?
Speaker 8 (07:35):
Everything's scripted, right, But I think what we didn't hear
was him being late to practice. What we didn't hear
was him not going to immerse himself with his locker room.
What we didn't hear was him being distraction outside of
the locker room and being a me guy. Because those
are all the things we heard. And going into the draft, right,
how he wasn't.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Prepared, that hasn't been. He showed up to every meetings.
Speaker 8 (07:54):
He's diving into this Stephens Kevin Stefanski's playbook. And but
to be honest, he's perfect for the system because Stephens
Kevin Stefanskian too, he has a twenty He's the eleventh
most quarterback coach that ran play action, right, so Shador
has an opportunity to get under center, dissect the defense,
run the ball.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
He's going to play to his strength.
Speaker 8 (08:15):
So if our Sador standards moving forward, man, take control,
take control of your name, the narrative, and go play football,
young man, because you have the talent.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Real quick.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Before we get to the next question, justin it's always
good for us to have a refresher on some of
these betteran quarterbacks. When you prepare for a Joe Flacco,
have you ever gone have you ever gone up against
Joe Flaco?
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Yeah? I familiar with his game.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Okay, so when.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
You prepare when you know what his game is like
if he was the quarterback one in Cleveland, Like, what's
your analysis of him as a QB.
Speaker 4 (08:40):
Yeah, going against a guy like that, you really want
to play a lot more with your disguises. I think
you do that with all of them, but you're not
as worried about the dual threat like Shadur some of
these other quarterbacks. You're worried about them tucking and running
as much. And Joe Flacco and that he is now
you're not quite as worried about that. He'll still have
some mobility, but you really want to just disrupt him
in the pocket, whereas like a young quarterback like a
(09:02):
Shadur Sanders or Dylan Gabriel, I want to keep them
in a crocket and I want to force them to
play quarterback. I want to force them to deliver the
ball and see we can set some traps.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Okay, that's good to know it, just in case Joe
Flacco is the guy come week one for the Browns.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
We got Justin Reid's take on it.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
So we saw the emoji at Shador Sanders on social media.
Let's dive into our own emoji use, shall we and
pick one that best describes this current situation with the
Browns quarterback room.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Manti, what is your emoji?
Speaker 7 (09:30):
I'm the goat at this stuff, br I communicate the
whole text with emojis. I got the crossed fingers, guys,
I got this. You can't tell me if you're a
Cleveland Browns fan or even a Cleveland Browns teammate that
you're looking at this quarterback room and you're like, we're
going to win the super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
You can't tell me that. Justin You can't tell me.
Speaker 7 (09:48):
You you and Julia Patrick Mahomes, there's never a time
where you went in there and you're like, I don't
know if we're going to win this. But you look
at this quarterback situation that the.
Speaker 6 (09:55):
Cleveland Browns have.
Speaker 7 (09:57):
You're hoping that Joe Flacco is Benjamin Bunten, that he's
gotten younger over time and that he has a flashback
to the two thousands, or you're thinking that if he
it doesn't work out, are you gonna go with Kenny Pickett?
Even with Kenny Pickett in there, he's a good quarterback.
But are you confident if you're Miles Garrett, are you
confident you're like, man, we're gonna beat the Baltimore Ravens twice.
Speaker 6 (10:13):
We're gonna beat the Steel Curtain twice.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
We just got a better defense who just signed Jalen
Ramsey and and and they have some of the best
rush that you'll come come across in the NFL. You
can't tell me if you're the Cleveland Browns sitting here
today that you're not crossing your fingers.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Like, man, I hope this thing works out.
Speaker 7 (10:28):
So if I have an emoji kind of describing this
whole situation, is that one.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
That's a good one.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
I like that.
Speaker 5 (10:34):
I like that.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
And just on theme with what we are today, I'm
gonna go with the cowboy moj You're gonna keep the
cowboy mojey with the hat Weathers for two reasons today
that looks like and this is because this is because
it is going to be a ride until a decision
is made. This is going to be up and down.
Everyone is going to have in pinions. They're going to
be pulling strings. You should put this guy in. It
(10:56):
should be his turn, should be his turn. It is
going to be a complete ride until a decision is made.
Somebody rides to the top and really takes the rains
on this and starts and starts being a cowboy out there.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Billy, what prop do you have?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
And now man four Willie goes, hey, hey, Justin. You're
saying that the Browns quarterback room is going to be
a riot.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Have you looked at the Saints? Hey?
Speaker 4 (11:17):
Listen, listen, listen all quarterbacks, listen to. Quarterback systems are
always difficult. You got somebody has to rise to the top.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
I somebody.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
And has to take taking time.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
That's why we keep him in a box.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
Up there.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
Ahead Willin for me.
Speaker 8 (11:35):
Yeah, my Mooji is last dance baby, because I could
let me tell you something.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
Competition breeds champions.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
And on top of that, man, when you're in a
heated competition exposes who you are. Every man at that
desk has been on the field. Well, your words don't
matter no more. It's precisely what you put on your tape,
because that's your resume. When I was in Pittsburgh, we
used to have to say when we left the locker room,
don't go from gangs to the girl. Meaning all that
madness you talk in the locker room, it better show
up on tape or shut your mouth in the locker
(12:02):
room because nobody believes you for Shador Sanders right now,
no more talking.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
Show up on tape. Your resume is your tape. Your
tape is your resume.
Speaker 8 (12:10):
So if you're in a competition, which I was, and
I've been in multiple camp competitions, the one thing you
do is show up every day because everybody has a
chance to rise.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
But it's all about how you respond.
Speaker 8 (12:20):
So if he responds like I expect him to respond
because of his football DNA, this man will be QB
one for the Cleveland Browns.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
There's a word that I texted my wife a lot,
my wife, who I consider both a gangster and a girl.
Speaker 6 (12:32):
I'm gonna I text the word donno. You ever saw
a dinner? And she's like, where do you want to
go to dinner?
Speaker 5 (12:39):
Dunno.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
The fun part is if you text the word donno,
it will automatically go into emoji, the one that goes
like like I used it all the time, which doesn't
speak well to me, not only in my marriage, let
alone on an opinion based talk show.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
You're not supposed to use that.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
But I'm usually in both situations because if we're all
being honest, I like the Cowboy, and I like the
fingers crossed. I like all of them. It's all one big.
No one knows. I just Stefanski knows.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Kyle, you're telling me that like a basic and sometimes
your wife just asked you a question like where do
you want to go to dinner? Because she's actually trying
to elicit an answer from you, you actually hit her
with the she just wants a suggestion and you can't
even give her the decency of an answer of like
Mexican or something.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Yeah, well, because my answer is always I just want
to stay home and eat sushi in the drink, So
she doesn't want to hear that that's always my answer,
So I have to.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
Say that, Oh it's perfect.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Speaking of the Saints in their quarterback situation, what are
you hearing from your team that you now are playing
for and the fact that just an odd situation that
happened with your quarterback retired at a strange time of
the off season.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
What's going on with your quarterback room?
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Yeah? I was given Derek Carr a lot of crap
for that in the American's Entry Tournament. Yeah, I've seen
him retiring on us one month after I signed, but
still for these two young guys, Tyler and Spencer. Like
I'm be consistent with what I said earlier. Somebody is
going to have to take the reins right now, there's
spinning reps evenly, you don't really know what you got
in OTAs, you know what I mean. When the pads
(14:07):
come on and you're able to actually start taking some
live reps when things are moving faster, that's when you
start to know what you've gotten. And somebody that I
just don't think that playing a two quarterback system going
back and forth all year long, yeah, is really going
to set a team up for success. I leans, somebody
needs to be the guy and take it all.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Right, Well, you're our guy this hour. Okay, I love
the Saints. We got you there.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Safety Justin Reid, he's on GMFB for the next hour.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
Wields up, wield up. We won't be the step wield
Sup Weil, we won't be a step pros to the
end zone got.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Just j Jefferson popularizing the pretty in the Pacific Northwest and.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
It is caught touch down.
Speaker 6 (14:59):
Justin wide open pot. Why no, man, that OI ad minute.
Speaker 7 (15:05):
And you don't double team Justin Jefferson, you got no
chances have Truer.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Words have never been spoken.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
We got emojis in the first segment of the show.
Now we're going list season s z N if you will.
There's been a lot of lists going around NFL's top
one hundred.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
We're doing a.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
List here every other day, it feels like on GMTB.
Now we got Randy Moss saying that Justin Jefferson could
be the greatest of all time at the wide receiver position.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Well, we've got Justin Reid here.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
At the table safety in the NFL for eight seasons,
coming into coming into eight seasons with the Saints.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Now, Justin So we.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Got to get your peace of mind on some of
these topics. Shall you share it with us?
Speaker 6 (15:38):
Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (15:38):
Okay, here we go. We're talking Justin Jefferson. What makes
them so difficult to cover? And do you agree with
Randy Moss's take that he could usurp some of these
guys and become one of the best or the best
wide receiver in the NFL.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Absolutely. He has electrified the NFL ever since he stepp
foot on the field. I mean the gritty of his
route running capability more than anything. He's a tough kid
that runs his routes really really Chris. He gets open,
he defeats double teams, he finds a way to get
at the rock, and he makes things happen. Now, the
great wide receivers always find a way to get to
the rock and make things happen.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
How does it make you feel when a guy like
Brandy Moss comes out and makes this type of statement
for a guy currently playing in the NFL.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
Yeah, coming from the same franchise too, in this big
time like he didn't need any he didn't need anyone to,
you know, tell him how great he is. But still
to have one of the greatest all time, a guy
that has a literal emoji made at throm getting lost. Yeah,
come out and say that. I mean, that's huge, that's huge,
that's really cool.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I mean, justin if I have it right, You've played
with guys like DeAndre Hopkins Tyreek, Like, there's amazing wide
receivers out there right now. It's just a really really
cool time for whiteouts. Who's just someone who's really blown
your hair back, never mind the hat, Like, who's really
impressed you? This guy can play when you're out there
(16:55):
on the field with him.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Let me when I did play with DeAndre Hopkins back
in twenty eighteen, twenty nine, there was nobody better than
football League and this guy was catching everything that came
his way. And it wasn't that he was fat serf
anything like that. He was extremely physical and if you
ever shook his hand, his hands are like spider legs,
like they would just wrap all the way around your
pump with how big you know, he just catches everything
but him, justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase even, I mean, it
(17:19):
really is a lot of the LSU guys. LSU guys
tend to do pretty well in the league, yeah, but
it's just there's so much talent going around in the
league these days. I mean, the level of play is
just picking up so much.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Absolutely well.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
A lot of really good receivers tend to play with
Jalen Hurts and for some reason that draws, I don't know,
some sort of skepticism towards his ability. You've played against
Jalen in the Super Bowl twice now, we've been hearing
these discussions and his coach talked about it that he
was a passenger, that he's a game manager. Any other
quarterback would have won the Super Bowl or at least
a half dozen of them.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
What do you think of when you hear that, No,
Jalen Hurts is a bona fide leader. He's a bonafi
I mean, his story from where he started at Alabama
and then going over to OU would still winning the
Heisman there and then getting drafted and just becoming the
man of this franchise, and the trajectory that he's taking him.
He has every tool. He's a certified leader. He can
make all the throws. He's a dual threat. He can
(18:11):
tuck and run it. He's strong. That toush push works
because he's the one pushing the pile. He's a certified guy.
And if you think that anyone can step into the
system and do what he does, you are absolutely wrong.
I mean, I'll take this to another example. I'll take
about the Brock Party conversation. And he had Jimmy Garoppolo
there and you had Trey Lance there, and that those
(18:33):
guys are playing in the same system as Rock Party.
But yet when Brock steps on the field, he makes
things happen. He executed. He does not get enough credit
for that, you know what I mean. So, like, you
can't just think that you can plug like the receiver talent,
you need that and that's a tool in assistance. But
the quarterback position in the NFL, you need a guy
there to do Yeah, you know, you can't get away
from it.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
I look at the quarterbacks as like a pie chart,
like they have to have all this talent, but there's
other parts of the pie too that when you walk
into the room or into an organization, you have to
be convincing to the fifty two other guys in the
field that you are the guy. And to your point,
that's all I keep coming back to about Jalen Hurts
is that when he got benched for TUA in Alabama,
he sat there and waited, but was still available in
(19:13):
an SEC title game he goes to Oklahoma. So you
have to imagine that if you were to line up
next to Jalen Hurts, you feel this vibe from him that,
like man, his leadership portion of his pie is off
the charts.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
Yeah, huge, huge, and under stated. I mean there's a
game last year where a guy didn't want to go
on the field because you know, he lost his starting jobs.
So like him and his perseverance, it's just incredible.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yeah, absolutely, Willy.
Speaker 8 (19:36):
Justin I may be putting you in the blender here,
but I'm just gonna go ahead and do it. Who's
the tougher quarterback to prepare for Bill's Josh Allen or
Lamar Jackson from the Ravens.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
I would say, I would say Josh Allen and let
me get me married. As why I would say Josh
Allen just because Josh Allen is will they both make
something out of nothing, you know what I mean. They'll
both create and be dynamic and just you know, run
all over the field. But Josh is just he's such
a problem. Like his side, he's like two fifty six
six two fifty and we played in that AFC Championship game.
(20:09):
He almost completed that pass at the end of the
game and we'd send an all out pressure to him
and then you know, it just ended up falling shape.
But this guy is just incredible with what he does.
He can either be their supervillo or be their biggest villain.
But when he's on, he is extremely on.
Speaker 6 (20:24):
We'll stay on that comparison train. Now.
Speaker 7 (20:26):
I know, defensively, we don't like you doing this a
lot because if you're making a lot of tackles, we're
not a good rush defense. But there are those situations.
I think it's possibly the hardest situation of.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Being as a defensive player, especially with safety.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
When the running back breaks it is an open field tackle. Now,
just so you have two types of running backs coming
at you.
Speaker 6 (20:46):
Which one would you rather tackle?
Speaker 7 (20:48):
Would you rather tackle Henry Derrick Henry or Saquon Barkley
in that situation?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
So solo?
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Hey, that's that's that's a really hard way to live
either way, you get. I mean, I think tackling might
hurt a little bit less just because of size. Yeah,
so I'm gonna go that route. But you know, I
think that you're a little bit worried about sa Quon
jumping over you backwards and maybe Derek can we Yeah,
(21:16):
so so.
Speaker 7 (21:17):
You're so you're more concerned about getting juked out than
run over.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
See that's how that's how I see it as a linebacker.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
Yeah, if I don't, I don't want to see shifty guys.
Speaker 6 (21:26):
I don't like shifting like I can do with the
big dudes, but the shifty.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Ones, I don't want to get jew puts you on
Sports Center.
Speaker 6 (21:32):
Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
But if this is, if this is open this is
an open field tackle like I mean, yeah, the young
kids out there, listen. If you're the last line of defense,
you gotta just you know, you gotta take it on
the chain, take it on and get them down. You
know it's fine. You're get in the field room and
everyone tell you that it was a good play.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Yeah, well, Jamie, you know you mentioned the last line
of defense. In my opinion, in any corporate structure, the
first line of defense is always the interns.
Speaker 6 (21:57):
Can we go to the intern camp?
Speaker 1 (21:59):
Let's check in with the new NFL. There they are everybody,
you guys, look all right, If you guys can hear me,
I want to I want to show of hands, me
versus Manti Tao in a wrestling match.
Speaker 6 (22:10):
How many people think I would win? Right? Raise your hand? Now?
Speaker 1 (22:17):
How many people think Manti would beat me in a
wrestling match?
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Show? Yeah, you're smart, smart as well.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Great job, guys, job hire them. Oh my gosh. So
in the open field.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I kind of like the senior executive on the sho
shouldn't they be kissing my butt?
Speaker 6 (22:34):
What's going on here? I mean, at least one hand
for the win?
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Up.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I can't hear the question. I don't know how to answer.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
One of them was, let's go to free job in
the red shirt and you're going.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Places justin You got one open field solo tackle in
your career that you are most proud of.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Toughest guy to take down.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Gosh, man, let me think about that. Yeah, on the spot,
on the spot, you know what, you know what, probably
probably one of the most fun ones for me. Yeah,
was playing against CMC because we were teammates at Stanford. Yes,
so I see the way this guy grinds on the
way he works. So you know, I always like hitting
my friends, right, I mean, hitting my friends is just
(23:14):
the best. It's not personal. I hit you because I
love you.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
Welcome back to GMFB.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
A lot of eyes on the Packers this season as usual,
But Jordan Love Josh Jacobs not going anywhere without this guy,
a new friend of ours, offensive tackle.
Speaker 6 (23:30):
Russheed Walker from the.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Great to see you.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
It's great to see you, man. I love that it's
your off week. You got camp around the corner. You're
getting up early to talk to us and right out
of the gate this season for the twenty twenty five Packers.
In Week one, you guys will face off against your
old buddies the Detroit Lions when you played the Lions
last season.
Speaker 6 (23:55):
Dude, you did this. We have the video we're gonna
show you right now.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Here is our guy look at boom with the right
hand over. Oh my gosh, that was fierce. Do we
have a name for that move? What are we watching there?
Because we love it?
Speaker 9 (24:08):
Called baby c That's called the That's called the get
you get about the.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Club white no white teas.
Speaker 5 (24:23):
The club.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
That's awesome.
Speaker 6 (24:26):
That's awesome.
Speaker 8 (24:28):
Yeah, listen, big fella, you're going to I know you
went to Penn State, Adie Hutchinson went to Michigan.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
Is their history there? That's one?
Speaker 5 (24:36):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (24:37):
And also you know, listen, how do you think things
are going to turn out this season for him?
Speaker 5 (24:44):
Well?
Speaker 9 (24:45):
Yeah, Ada Hunderson, we go way back. The first time
I saw him was in the Army All American Game.
We got to compete against each other. You know, he's
a he has a crazy motor. Tell he loves ball
and I love to compete against him. I think he's
going to come back, you know, stronger than ever. So
I'm excited to see him. We missed him last year.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I bet you did.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Rashid before I ask you about blocking for your quarterback.
Did you watch him walk down the aisle recently? I
know Jordan Love got married. How was the wedding?
Speaker 3 (25:13):
In the celebration the wedding was.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
It was a beautiful wedding, beautiful ceremony. You know, I
was excited to see such a beautiful couple and you know, hopefully,
hopefully Veronica, can you know, keep Jordan on his A game?
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Yeah, absolutely, Well.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
You have some responsibility to that two weeks one through
eighteen and beyond, so I know, once the season starts,
you always got that guy's back.
Speaker 3 (25:36):
Why is Jordan Love good?
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Why should he be in the conversation as one of
the best up and coming quarterbacks currently playing in the league.
Speaker 9 (25:44):
Dude, I mean, I feel like you got to watch
the tape. The guy does some pretty amazing things with
the football.
Speaker 5 (25:53):
You know.
Speaker 9 (25:53):
I feel like as long as we give him time,
you know, we have some great, great weapons on the perimeter.
Jordan Love, he's very comfortable slinging the rock. Doesn't have
any issue with this. And I feel like the Skyds
and limit when it comes to us when Jordan Loves
in the game.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Yoh or shade, So one of the best things about
professional sports is every year it starts over. It's a
blank slate. You get big dreams, aspirations. You get to
start over. Whether it's good, bad, and different, you get
to go and do it again. So this year, heading
into training camp, what are you most focused on and
how do you plan on getting the rest of the
offense hype for the season.
Speaker 5 (26:30):
I mean, my main focus is on going into this season.
Speaker 9 (26:34):
It's just believing that, you know, I'm the best at
what I do, and I'm just I just can't wait
to compete. You know, I miss competing. You know, you
know the NFL, we have a long off season, so
I've been itsing to just get back and just you know,
prove myself once again. So I feel like that mindset
could be contagious to the rest of the team, and
you know, if everybody's clicking on the same page, I feel.
Speaker 5 (26:57):
Like we can do great things this year.
Speaker 6 (26:58):
You're going to do great things or shitty. You're right
about that.
Speaker 7 (27:01):
And one of the reasons why you're going to have
a great season is there's been this talk about you
guys not having a wide receiver one where you go
and draft Matthew Golden first round, but in your opinion,
being there in Green Bay, have you guys had a
wide receiver one and if not, do you think that
Matthew Golden can come in there and take that spot.
Speaker 9 (27:19):
I kind of like the moment all along, but I
feel like we've done pretty good with the receiver that
we have. You know, Matthew Golden, he's a great kid.
He came in the ots and you know, I was
impressed with how he worked and how he prepared, and
you know, I'm excited for him looking forward to see
how he shows up during camp. But you know, I'm
really excited for him and a wide receiver room.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
It is very exciting and it's very talented, dude, and
it feels like a different wave for the Packers. There's
also a different wave for the Packers that happen the
end of the last season. Rushid, You've been there for
three years and you guys have enjoyed domination over the
Chicago Bears. At the end of last season, the Bears
won in Lambeau and I don't know if it's gotten
back to you, but Caleb Williams, a young quarterback, has
(28:03):
said a few times this off seat that he is
undefeated in lambeau Field.
Speaker 6 (28:06):
And he's pretty pleased with that. What's it like to
hear that? What do you guys do about it?
Speaker 5 (28:12):
Man? He got lucky? What do you mean you you
know what I'm saying?
Speaker 6 (28:26):
Tell us more.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
He's saying lot without saying nothing.
Speaker 5 (28:33):
You know, that's all I have to say. You know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
They got lucky, make the playoffs and were going to
see him again this year and we're going be said that.
Speaker 8 (28:44):
Rashid Willie here. You guys did a hell of a
job running the ball last season. Man, what's the expectation
going into this season and what's the mondset out of
the office lineman to.
Speaker 6 (28:52):
Really step up?
Speaker 8 (28:53):
Because you look at another great officer unit, especially in
the Detroit Lions.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
You guys are in the same division.
Speaker 8 (28:58):
You guys can pay yourselves in their production of how
they get after that on Sunday.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
Yes, you know, as a officsive lineman, you know, we
take pride in being able to run the ball whenever
we want to at any point of the game. While
we want the team to be able to be able
to rely on us. And when you have a great
running back like Josh Jacobs, you know what I'm saying,
makes your job a lot, a lot more easy, you know,
when you have a guy who who is elusive and
(29:25):
has the.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
Ability to break away and score as much as he can.
Speaker 9 (29:29):
So you know, going into the season, we really want
to capitalize off what we did last season.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
We're not going to have a drop off.
Speaker 9 (29:36):
Everyone's going to be on the same page with the
same mentality, and we're going to run the ball and
you know, we're just we're going to be a tall
officer line.
Speaker 5 (29:43):
I can promise you.
Speaker 6 (29:44):
That they're gonna go old school.
Speaker 7 (29:45):
And talking about old school one thing that happens that
never happened to me because I'm from Hoi, But I
guess in training camp you're going back to your old
high school, North Point in Waldorf, Maryland. How excited are
you about that. I'm sure that you're excited. And how
cool of an experience is that for you?
Speaker 5 (30:01):
Yeah, I'm really excited.
Speaker 9 (30:03):
This will be the third annual football camp and you know,
my whole goal for the campus just you know, give
kids and the experience, you know, to even be able
to say that they even tried to play football and
you know, got to do the drills because I know,
growing up. I was, you know, placed in football camps
and you know, things like that, and that's start managers
(30:25):
in football. It's also good to see the community come together,
just giving the kids the opportunity to learn, and just
to spend time with the kids and just to show
them that, you know, if I can do what they
can do it. Granted, you know we're from all from
the same hometown. I just love coming back and sewing
love to my home, my hometown. And you know, the
(30:45):
past few years this went really good. It's going to
go good tomorrow. We've had hundreds and hundreds of kids
come through, a lot of kids. I always see a
bunch of familiar faces every year, so it's real good
coming back home. You know, the people show me love,
so I'm going to continue showing my city love.
Speaker 5 (31:06):
Well.
Speaker 6 (31:07):
You host your own bowling events.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Your very first one is for their Future charity event
last year. And from the looks of this picture, Rashid,
I think you seem to really enjoy bowling.
Speaker 6 (31:19):
Here we go.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Locked in full focus.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Are you an avid bowler?
Speaker 9 (31:25):
Like?
Speaker 6 (31:25):
Are you posting real scores and stuff?
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Talk to us about the form here because it's beautiful.
Speaker 9 (31:30):
Well, the form as you see I have my front
foot and my toes are pointed forward, you know, down
the lane, got the ball clock back midway. I'm pretty
sure I got a really clean release. Now I'd like
to call that form to strike out, because that's exactly
what happened after that.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
I love the locked in, full blown analysis of your
bowling Former sheet.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
It's perfect. Can I get another an analytic take on you?
Can we just produce a show?
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Can we do a side by side of Justin and Rashid?
Just so Rashid you can get a good look at
Justin read today for sheet. I want to get to
know the packers a little bit better. If you had
to pick one guy on your team that would wear
a hat like Justin Reid is wearing today, Who is
that guy?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
And why he's got to look good? Now, it's got
to look good. You can't. You can't just you can't
just throw anybody out here, not anybody can just put
on anybody's put on a hat like.
Speaker 5 (32:25):
I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say it will be.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Elton Jenkins, Okay, and why oh man?
Speaker 4 (32:33):
All right?
Speaker 9 (32:35):
You know kid from you know Parksdale, Mississippi. Yep, you
know what I'm saying, that's just that's their style and
they pivoting on that, so like that.
Speaker 4 (32:46):
Appreciate you, my boy. It's the details. I can tell
you what technician. It's about the details, details.
Speaker 6 (32:55):
All right, my man.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
I love having first time resign here. We followed your career.
I love that you are holding it down in Green Band.
Let's do this again when the season starts, because you're
really cool and.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
Yes, man, I appreciate you guys for having me on
the show. It's been great.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Good luck with your camera, Seve no Way, thank you,
