Speaker 1 (00:00):
To be ko Albright, since I'm on all day at
this point.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Five six sixty nine zero is the text line.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
And sitting across from somebody who liked a ko Albright,
that'd be uh. That'd be Nick Ferguson.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
That would be uh correct for for many many reasons.
You promise knock him out. That's hall of fame voice
is the hall of Famer, Steve Atwater.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
You wouldn't do that to all bray? Would you yet?
Catch me? First? Well, first of all, that wouldn't be
too hard.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Let's let's play here right now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I get about ten steps that e'd be body, and
I can't point right. Here's the thing to remember yesterday.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
As the phasive players, we have been taught to track
down prey, right, and it's.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Better to be the hunter then the haunted. That's all.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
But on that note, pray, yeah, did you catch me?
Because if you don't catch me, you will never hear
the end of it. There's true, very true. So I
wouldn't I know you now if you want so?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Wait? Wait wait, wait, here's the thing though, here's the thing.
I don't know. Nick still in shape though.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Look once again, if you ever watch National Geographic and
if you ever watch how Big Cass hunt, there never
they never really get even with their prey. The idea
is that they always swipe at what the hind leg.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
So all I was in was get close enough. I
can just trip over tape.
Speaker 5 (01:39):
Right now, Yes, that way that I'm not way out
trying to click that.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Which reminds I'm gonna show you, guys during the break.
I found some high school tape.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
And I'm going to show you.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh no, I'm going to show you a play with
me on defense with thing on a tackle. Wait, not
me play, there was another play from junior varsity, and.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I wait to show you. You really want to see this?
It's me whiffing on a tackle. Of course I want
to see it. Are you going to show something bad
about you?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yes, because then I'm gonna deny it to everybody else
that it never happened.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
But I'm gonna show it to you guys. Know it waste.
You can't really deny because you just said that you
found footage. I don't recall the answer.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
You are verifying that there is Footage'm employing the shaggy
defense right now.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
What you.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Popped on it?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yeah, like the c G I why stuff is incredible
these days.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
So I've heard the other night I was out playing
playing cards, some guys like, man, you you you looked
from me, you look like some he looked like a celebrity.
And I was, you know me, I was trying to
be joking, you know, I was like, what a sexier
younger Rob Low.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
No, No, that's not it. This guy from uh.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
No, come on, yeah, just it just gotta be so
good right there. But now I'm looking forward to this
joint practice tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
We got the.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Arizona Cardinals come into town. I think they're a better
football team than a lot of people think. I think
they can challenge for that division this year. They've paid
a lot of investment on that defense, and I think
I think it's gonna be good for the Broncos to
go up against a team with that much talent on
the defense here to join practice in a preseason game,
given that the offense still got some things they need
to iron out.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Well, He's a very interesting thing.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Anytime you have two teams either playing against one another
or in this case, practicing, you always try to look at,
you know, the familiarity.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
So for me, right off the bed, you got dance Josup,
Zach Allen, and Baron Browning.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Right, So Baron brown is going to be in practice,
and I'm interested to see how that.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Kind of pans out. Is he going to try to
give you know, Garrett Bose and Mike.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Mcglitchy extra work. I want to see those battises. I
want to see the one on once Marvin Harrison Junior said.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
He buked up, right, he did both up but I think.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
It was yes, he was already kind of a I think,
you know body type wide receiver now to twenty five
as a receiver. So it's gonna be interesting to see
because we're not really going to see those guys really
give us those types of battles in the game. So
for me and I used to be opposed to because
I hated joint practices because I thought they you couldn't
(04:17):
really get anything out of it. But competition is so
rapped up in joint practices more than regular preseason games.
You know why, because players can't get kicked out. No,
you can't get kicked out for practice.
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Well, I mean, well it comes good.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Hold on, you start.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Doing some crazy stuff and you know, just being one
more like we see.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Because The rule is if Ben is my teammate, and
I might hate Ben's guts, but it's just but but yes,
but I'm just saying because not all teammates get along,
but it been.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
But it Ben gets into a squabble, guess.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
What it's going Your responsibility going down because if I don't,
now I'm in troubles.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's right, you know, walking the way, Yes we have,
we got the tape up here. We're here for a
war break exactly.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
And I've had coaches in situations like that where when
that was at Georgia Tank, Georgia o'liary appeared to be
yelling at me, but he really wasn't right.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
He was really just kind of moving.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
His arms around a lot, and he was like, hey man,
great job, and it was not a big deal. So
I can easily see that happening, uh tomorrow. Practice obviously
you want it to be competitive, not combative, which is
probably why there's only one you know you're practicing not too.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
That's Kyle has said something about that where normally the
first day you get good work. In the second day
didn't have a great day, they got to get some revenge.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
They he was for hitting the batter right, that's for
going back and getting the revenge for whatever happened the
day before.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
That's why you don't see two day joint practice as
much anymore. You really don't.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
You remember when the forty nine ers first came back
here and it was the first time which I couldn't
lead that Mike Shanahan was allowed at the practice facility,
which was utterly ridiculous. But anyway, the forty nine ers
came out and they dominated practice and the only person
who looked like they had a fight in them with.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Timp passion him Patrick, and boy he was yes, yes, yeah,
he didn't like that.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
He was he was fished.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
He wouldn't do I've never seen I don't think I've
ever seen a player that angry that publicly about the
effort from his teammates.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yes, I'm seeing like like a little different in the
game though. This Yeah, this is helmet off.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Like this was helmet off all the media, all the
fans up on the bar, all that he was.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah, I see what he was. He was hot, he
was really animated.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
But he was the only guy who showed his anger
and frustration publicly outward because he was just like, well,
We're not gonna ask someone come in our place and
do this to us. But that next day in practice
there was a little more Jews from the Broncos. But
it's about coming out and almost like the first drive.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Tim Patrick, probably well.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Not just from Tim, but going into meeting rooms and
watching you get dominated on your own practice field. That
was like someone coming into your house with dirty shoes on.
You got a white carpet. I don't know about you, Ben.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
This is basically the Charlie Murphy and Eric James Binch.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
Yes, your couch, yes, it's you're not going to allow
someone to do that. But but I don't know about you, Ben,
because like and my grandmother's, I mean, you had regular
seating areas and then you just had an area that no.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
One should sit in with the plastical. So it's that
type of thing. Now, are you going to come in
let Alizon to come in here?
Speaker 4 (08:15):
And you got the plastic on the furniture, why you
got the white carpet. Just allow of them to put
their feet up, you know, waste their drink all on
your your table, or you're going to do something about it.
So this is why I love joint practices. I want
to see what God is going to take that first stand.
They say, you know what, this is Bronco's country and
(08:36):
this is going to be.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
But but the thing is too.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
One of the things that I think Coach Payton has
reiterated to the team is that we want to get
good work here.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
We don't want to be fighting.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
We don't want to and you know a lot of
times if somebody's getting dominated its fight.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
If you get to the domination point, that's what happens.
We want to dominate.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
But there's a way to do that though, because when
we look at some of the special category things that
they're going to try to get accomplished, especially with one
day red zone, right, things really pick up in that
red zone area because you're working with so little space.
I would like to say nine on seven, but there's
not a lot of pop pads popping in nine o seven.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
But when you get inside that red.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Zone, or you're doing one on ones inside the red
zone down the field, usually when that's when it jumps up.
And I'm not saying that I'm advocating for physic cuffs.
You can just go out there and just shut a
guy down completely. You don't even have to talk right,
and I'm sure the fans that's gonna be there.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
They may even use yeah with buster oohs and oz.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I'm hoping that we get one of those padding incomplete
from the fan bash.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I'll need one of those, please, you definitely need, definitely
need some of that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
And then there comes a point where one team is
getting better or the other most of those things, and
then you do have.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That kind of temper start to flare a little bit
because you know.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
You know, somebody's giving you the business, like you know
wo man I and everybody else knows they give it
to them more.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's when it turns up when you hear it from
other individuals and everyone else knows that you get in
the business right now.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I don't think a lot of people, though, would be
excited if you say, like like, I'm excited to seek
them practic against Cardinal, because I think they could be good.
Cardinals are returning their entire starting offense, not defections, uh
and their defense. They added Kalais Campbell, Melan Tomlinson, a
Keem Davis, kith Or Josh Sweat, and drafted Will Johnson
to a defense that was fairly decent last year.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That already has Baron Browning.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Mac Wilson, Joe and Thompson, Buddha Baker, Max Melton, like
they've they've got a squad.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
So I'm kind of excited.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
To go out and practice against the team that I
think is better than the team we're.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
A practice against last week. Well, it all.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Depends on how the coaches script the practice. All those
guys that you name are a great addishes, but do
you allow them to go out there and play with
game tempo in practice?
Speaker 1 (11:05):
And then that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
This is why the joint practice is for me as
an evaluated you get more out of these practices because
that that temperature gauge is now turned up because everyone
is watching and they're close. Your owners there, their owners, there,
your coaches on the field. The scouts are on the field.
And guess what the scouts are doing because they come
what August twenty sixth, both they have to make some cuts.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
So you're looking say, okay, well, how many.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Guys that are we heavy at the cornerback position?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Well could we look at.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
The linebacker position for the Cardinals and scout them right
here on our field? Right? So you know, okay, Well,
we know that these guys may go out who else
on their roster fits our mentality that we know we
can bring here. So that's what's happened. That's what is
going to happen at the practice tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
So Nick, do you think that some of the players
on the well on both rosters, do you think most
specially the rookies and some of the new players, do
you think they fully know the playbook?
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Now?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
I mean what's been put in.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
How comfortable were you at this stage of camp because
it's getting close to you know, a couple of weeks
in and well just about the end of training camp.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Now, how comfortable.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Were you with the playbook at this point in your
career as a rookie?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Only maybe halfway portion?
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Because when you think still think, we're still thinking because
once again, there's a difference between install and OTAs and
training camp, which is kind of they're just kind of
redoing in training camp what they did in OTAs. But
once you get to week one and beyond, it's game planning,
right they now you're tweaking everything that you worked on.
(12:53):
I mean, obviously in my second and third year it
was entirely different, and obviously for a lot of these
players who are playing in the same defense or offense
for a second or third year. It helps you out
and it doesn't help like when you're learning a new
offense every two years or a defense.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
You could say you're a professional athlete, but learning is tough.
It's difficult, and most fans.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Think, well, it's football, right, It's certain coverages and certain
things you do offensively.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I always tell him this, man.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
I respect Peyton Man because he's a smart quarterback. Even
when he came here from the Colts, from Tom Moore's offense,
he struggled a little kind of getting the nuances of
Gary Kubiek's offense.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
So it happens.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
It's not an indictment of your lack of being able
to pick things up.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
That's just the way the business works. System.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
You're doing a lot of the same things, but you
just have to change the terminology. And the terminology is
so different.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
So I got all different. You make calls one thing
from your last office.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
But it's the difference between thinking and acting sometimes too.
You got to think about that terminology.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
You got to think process that come through instead of
just acting on instinct.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Yeah, once you've once you've got it.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Well, See that's the thing you Football is a thinkings game,
but you don't want to be on the field thinking
like like if someone took a screenshot of a player's
face and you look at his eyes and he's trying
to it's like a mathematical equation, like he's trying to
figure it out.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
No, it's like you see it and you do it.
So they start running one way and stop and look
back the other way. All listen, they don't right and
you're not sure. And here's what I'm confusion.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Here's what I would tell you listeners, and watch any
game on any level Pop Warner, College, high school, even
in the pros. You can tell in the first three
steps whether a guy has intent to make a tackle
or make a play, because that transition is going to
be quick where he's taking too many steps.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
He's still try to figure it out. He's unsure speed
to power versus the shuffle. Yes, that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yes, it is a shuffle.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Would that be the adequate way to describe this play
that you're going to show Steve?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
And uh No, this play that I'm going to show
you guys is uh is what you would know is incompetence.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Okay, it's more like sliding into second base.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
It's more like sliding into the space in between first.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
And second base because you missed your target so badly. Okay, yeah,
I can't wait, oh man, you can. You'll enjoy this one.
You'll enjoy this one when you start def jating.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
I mean people like that, yeah right, yeah, I mean
because I talk a lot, you know, on the other
side of things, but I you know, and I don't,
but I don't.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I don't sit there like shove.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
That in everybody's face, but I saw I feel like
it's only fair to show.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
You some of the mistinesses as well.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Okay, you know what I mean that that that is
uh through, Yes, you know, only for a third period
of time right on the last right and then.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
But but that's a that's sort of the thing. It's like,
I feel like that, and I've always felt like this.
If I show people what I was at my worst,
you know, and then they get to see the rest
of me all the time, then they understand, you know,
that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
So I'm here for it. And I've never had probab
people making fun of your roast culture or any of that.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
So yeah, I mean everyone has everyone has shortcomings, even
you know, some of the best players in our.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Sport, and mine would be playing defense. Yeah so.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Wait, Steve, you know this, not every player who goes
out for football is cut from the same colots. To
play on the defensive side of the ball, you got
to have a different mentality. Like with offense, you're running
from people. Defense, you're running to go get them mentality.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
I love to running away from people. First of it.
I was a kid when we were you know, when
we were young, that was like to keep keep away
with the ball or catch the man with the can.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
You know.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
I was that dude. So yeah, you can't get me.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
You know, speaking of which, I definitely want to get
you guys peeing on this because when we look back
at the San Francisco game, you know, not too many
people who were happy about the starting offense, his performance
and RJ.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Harvey got the start.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
And I've been listening I practice listening to other media
people talk about how RJ. Harvey didn't really stick with
certain plays. He was trying to bounce a lot of things.
And for me, the idea is that when you look
at football from an America standpoint, there are less players
outside than there are inside. A play may be designed
to go inside, but the running back may see something outside.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
And as long as.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
He's gaining positive yards and keeping you ahead of the chains,
I don't know proble.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Wish there was a cutback lane he missed in that game.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
There were two runs that I'm like, one of them
you definitely should have seen a lane. The other one,
I'm like, Okay, I understand you made a decision, But
that's what it is like. You're seeing You're seeing the
run fits as you're back there. You're seeing the run
fit and making a decision in real time on do it.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You know, can I get through there?
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Or can I do I need to stretch this thing
out further and see if I can get yards this way.
And he's always been the fastest guy or one of
the fastest guys on the field, so I worked for him.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Now you're in the pros where.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Everybody's fast like that, You've got to learn to pick
and choose your battles on that.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
Yeah, And like as a running bag, sometimes the coach
has got to trust you, you know, because you'll make
some of those plays and because.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
They don't don't.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Ye ye ye.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Running a Broncos country tonight bed to all Rdnick First
and Steve ad Er, Zach Segers back there, producing will
be back after this. Ben's be Albright, Dick Ferguson the
Hall of Famer, Steve Adwater Hall of Shamer back there,
Zach Segers, Steve Harrington.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Never let that one go.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Ever, Once I saw the picture of that dude, like
like in regular and how he looks like you, never
letting that go, I.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Don't think that's a bad dick. I'll take that. I
look like the honk from Stranger Things. That's you were
the one that called them a hounk, not me. I'm
just saying you didn't say that. He put that. He
put that out there, wouldn't me, but record, I don't
think that's the what's killing common to you. He's Steve
Harington for Stranger Things. That's what he looks like. Nah,
(19:09):
before the facial hair, not as much, but before that,
when he's clean, he looks like Steve Harrits frustration thing.
I'm just saying, like it does. I look at the
pictures of uside like, oh wow, did I never noticed this? Interesting?
Speaker 2 (19:20):
I guess you's got a band like the Dude to play, Steve,
you've got a band, they're like good. Mm it's called
like DJL like Joe Like then they're.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Good or that's much for your bands? Well listen because
I'm not listening to Taylor Swift over there on the
New Hype podcast right now. What see?
Speaker 4 (19:45):
First of all, I said that you have like difficulty
giving music who artist credit.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
I didn't toss out trouble getting credit to you did trouble.
There's a number of artists that you don't like. Who
there are? There are somebody I think. I mean we
were talking about Coldplay at one time.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I followed Coldplay around on tour before they were the
band of adultery.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
You know what the name that they died ceo?
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah busted at the Coldplay concert she know his wife
because the camera.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Crazy.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
I was like, bro, so now that if you happen
to get in a car with your wife or girlfriend
and she's playing a Coldplay song, does that now kind
of send Antanna's off based off what you just said
about to now.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
She wants to go to the show. Maybe that's what
you know? I got a friend I want to go
to the show with. Yeah, Now, we're not doing that,
although you might get busted there. Who knows, is there
like a group.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
A band or a singer that you might listen to
that No one would have ever expected that.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Not really, because uh, I listen into like old school
R and B. You know when when when most of
those my.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Guys, my guy passed away, nothing like him and like
Shania Twain and like that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
No, okay, I mean when I'm like, yeah, I'll.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Listen to Teddy Pedagrass and all that kind of stuff,
it could be like I'm you know, all of the OJ's,
you know, they started looking at me like I'm crazy
with that.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
That's the great thing about music because music has no barriers, right,
It's just it's just good music. Like the other night, yes,
like Grant played the Ohio Players, right, and I remember
the Ohio Players album covers because if you're a fan
of the group but you know of them, the album
(21:43):
covers were always kind of iffy, like they always pushed
the omelope for that time period, Like they have one
album cover with the woman on the cover and they
have honey and I'll just leave it right there.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
You get your idea.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's like, uh, I didn't who is the one? I
think it was the outcast and kind of pushed it
with a couple there.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yes, you know what I'm talking about. Yes, you know
what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Yes, But it's one of those things that you you know,
Ben is right, Like I consider myself to have a
very eclectic you know music who tastes like I I'll
go over.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
In the country, right? Have I listened to Tellis Swift? Absolutely? Now?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Was that?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Were you like that before football or did football? Like
hear the music? Like, did that bring in? At what
point did you start listening to like country and stuff?
Because like, did you come up listening to that or
did that you developed his.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
First concussion that kind of he was like you know
that Morgan Wall they say, they said, who's playing that? Damn?
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Because I like I came up mostly on like R
and B and stuff, but then I branched out later,
like I branched out into white people music later.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
You know, well.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
You know exactly what I mean.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Okay, so I'll say this my music to taste that
happened before I ever touched the league, and that was
because of listening to Casey case On top.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Forty Okay, yeah, yeah, that's what it was for me
to be there.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
You're going being introduced to all those different type of artists,
and you gotta think about it. I mean, I grew
up in the eighties and the nineties. That's the big
hair bands. Yeah right, you got Poison, you got yeah, yeah,
those guys. Then you had the flock of seagulls, right,
so you all over the place. But for me, that's
when music was music. Would you been in the.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Mirror like with the with the right or Mike singing
and everything. No, I didn't do that. That's that's going
too far. I didn't. I didn't do that. Now like
I didn't do that. What was interesting? Now, don't forget
that the band was in the band once, it was
in a boy band.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Trying to find video of that after I show you
video during the bride, not, I'm not trying to find video.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
He needed that silver some is that? Yeh? Mom got
some phs somewhere. It's there's some purple vlure jumpsuits and
high top face is not It is not good in
my life. It is not good.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And you saw Pastford Blue Ryan's band, No, I did not. Yeah,
Ryan was good. Mine is hilariously bad. I'm gonna show
you something Patford Blue, so it's.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
On the YouTube. Okay, we got that on the YouTube.
I did not know in this case the bluetube.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Patrick, Yes, but you know, yeah, they got to look
at him. Look he's got the knee high socks with
like the three stripes. Oh, it's good, it's glorious. They
were good, like they were good bands, like we were
not good. We were delusional enough to think we were. Yeah,
they were a cover band, right, well we were. They
get the had originals. Okay, we were doing we were doing.
We were doing like new Edition and mid Condition one
(24:48):
twelve like all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Oh yeah, we had the choreographs. We had a choreograph.
Move shiny soup guy. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Oh it was purple sparkly No Diddy, Oh yeah we didn't. No,
we haven't no bad boys for life over here, horrible being.
Oh yeah, mom's got some video that I have not
letting that out of the vault. I let these I'll
(25:16):
let these these football low lights.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Out the vault, but I'm not letting that at the vault.
That was I'll tell you this. It's funny that you
talk about his low lights and highlights.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
I don't know, how did you guys feel about how
the Broncos defense perform. I know it's first preseason game
and the ideas not giving a lot of credit, But.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
No, I thought they played well. They had one busted
play with the Milan, I mean, and it wasn't really busted.
It was just they got executed by the offense.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
I'll say it because a lot of people say, oh, man,
McMillan gave it.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Guess what a quarterback, you're gonna get me something? Yeah,
he was in good position. I thought he played it well.
Yeah that never seen it was playing played that ball
really well. I mean you rolling, Look, I thought the
defense played well. Outside of that big play, they didn't
give anything else up. He got being a little and
also a little bit Heno got held on that touchdown,
but they got something in the corner. Couldn't it looks
(26:11):
like that he got help. But other than that, I mean,
they didn't give up anything else. The only other points
came in they safety bowl.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Yeah. Well, when you think about for me, the player
who continued to show up is the player who's still
waiting for a deal, and that was Nick Benito because
he was getting off the ball, he was in the backfield.
I don't know what what he learned from that Thursday
practice last week against the forty nine ers, but it
(26:36):
seemed like that he had to read on a snapcount
and he was he was in the backfield.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Felt like he learned these offensive lineman.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Ain't you know what?
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Yes, just just I know it's just the first preseason game,
so I don't want to overhype this. Well, could you
imagine based on what we saw last year from Nick
Benito and and in that preseason game watching his get off,
if he can turn that get off into sacks, forced
fumbles and the Broncos.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Let's just say it's Week five and you still haven't
paid him. I mean, prices that prices, it's only going up,
it's only going up.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
But he's sitting he's sitting there waiting for Trey Henderson
and Michael Parsons to sign, because that's going to raise
the floor, the average of the top five floor.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
He's he's best interest not to sign. I think he's thinking.
I don't think he's even thinking about that right now. Well,
I mean he knows that he made his nation know
that me ain't know in the back of their mind.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
But you can't be on the football field thinking about
I want to get paid. Yeah see okay, So well,
even though you can say, well, he's not.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
Thinking about it, I'm saying that he's thinking about it
because every time he gets an opportunity to pass rush
and you get teams in the second and third and long,
trust me, he's thinking about it. Yeah, because every sack
he gets in pressure, that's more money in his pocket.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Yeah yeah, man, But NIGGI, what are you thinking about
that when you're paying Oh yeah, yes, was.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Undrafted different Like this dude came in Hungary undrafted. So
you're on the field thinking if I may just playing,
we'll get paid more money. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Okay, Well here's the way I thought about it. My
first year in the league, I was like I would
play for free. My second year, I looked at every
tackle like Mario Brothers the classic Marto Brook.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Every tackle was a coin. That's how That's how it
played in my mind. Tackle. That's why I would push
people out of the way to make the tackle. Yet
it's we gotta get a check A traffic.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Six six nine zero is the text line A couple
of texts coming in eight two eight says he looks
exactly like Steve Arrington exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Come on, uh three or three and using food cross
any gap, Yes they do, they cross any divide. Well done.
They an' might have their No Wood singing group, saying.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
There is absolutely no way you could know the answer
to that because literally tens of people that want just
back in the in the nineties and there is no
there's nothing publicly out there.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
So YouTube, no, there's no patchwork blue videos on YouTube.
No YouTube would invent if we were doing stuff. Okay,
this is back in the day.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah, Uh, my mom's got some some VHS video somewhere,
so one of these days somebody will somebody will convince
her to let it go. But I've been pretty good
aby keeping that in the vault. We were we were
epically bad. This was like like we thought we were hot.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
You know what, back in the day. Man, we were
so bad. Because you gotta believe that. You can't believe
that you suck keep doing it.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
We did suck, though, Like Monny, when you go back
and watch a video a few years after over.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Movie, like, oh my god, we were terrible.
Speaker 5 (29:35):
Man.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
How did people came to this.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
I remember me and one of my buddies were there
was a young lady on the phone. This is back
when I was in my third fourth grade. Who can
sing the best?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Man? I was terrible. I was like, man, he got it,
he can sing better than me. I'll hit that. Boys
to men, there we go, right, that's like, give me that.
I always got him.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
There's a there's a moment you almost got him, almost
sucking him right into saying that.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Honestly, that used to be my best move back in
high school.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Was excellent to him. Hit him with the hit him
with the voice. I used to sing a little bit.
I was all right, but it was not we worked.
We were collectively terrible at what we did.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
You see.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
That's where you know, like if people always ask if
you didn't play football, what else would you want to do?
And people must sit and say, well, you know what,
I want to be in the band, And I'm like,
you're not even thinking, oh enough, No, no, you want
to be the.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Lead singer in any band, right, because it's the lead singer.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Yes, from that, because when you first start, everything is great,
everyone's thinking about team.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Then after a couple of successful songs, next thing you
know the singer is going so long. Oh yeah, the
band broke up. I mean even though he's a terrible band.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Like if the front man gets known, like name me
another guy from from limb Biscuit besides Fred Durst, and
that guy was terrible, Like you know, like our Chad
Kroger for Nickelbacks, Like you can't name any of the guys.
We can probably name Ms West Borty, but those guys
kind of stick out.
Speaker 4 (31:01):
Like I mean with Fred Durts, it was always he
always had on the red the red ball cap.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Recognizable. Have you seen him? Have you seen him now?
Speaker 2 (31:11):
He's after touring. Dude, he has like this grandpa gandolf
hair and this beard stuff.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
It looks like one recognizable guys. Question who has the
most on the line with this joint practice players or teams? Team?
Speaker 2 (31:30):
You have super Bowl? You've been talking all month about
how you got super Bowl caliber team out reminds you
of the Super Bowl? Thats all I ain't talking about this.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Wait wait he said it, But yeah, he has been
said it for him and it's been doing too many man,
And you know, like Kate Adams has been really pushing
this whole idea and concept This is why after the
first preseason game against forty nine ers, the offices didn't
really look well. Fansik of Twitter to voice their opinion.
(32:02):
But this is the price of doing business when expectations
are race or at certain levels. So it is a
differ Brad, because I need to come out and play well.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
I love I love in faris to Seawan. I love
him setting the standard at excellence. I love that because
I talked about this in the last show. But we
we had the sag in the army, right, we set
the standard at excellence, and if you can't meet that,
we're gonna thank you kindly for trying to find people
who can't.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Ye know, Yeah, I think it was more.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
Having the team feel comfortable having a conversation and you know,
being associated with uh be in the Super Bowl, you know,
sudden just you.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Know, getting touching it, you know, feeling it, getting used
to it.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
I don't think he was all out saying we're going
to we're gonna dominate the MC West, We're gonna go
undefeated in.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
The playoffs, and we're going to this. I don't think
he was.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
He would even if he if coach Faydon were to
say that I don't have a problem with it. The
reason I don't have a problem with it is because
both you and I played for this organization on the
Mister B and Mike Shenahan.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Where that was expected. Yeah, but that's what you're trying
to return to. We weren't out saying we're gonna win
the Super Bowl. No, And how did he said that?
Speaker 4 (33:16):
Either?
Speaker 1 (33:16):
He said, I want I want to feel comfortable with
us getting.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
There, but he wants the team to think with that mentality,
because if you don't think with that mentality, then it's
not You can't even think that that's achievable.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
If you believe it, then you're not going to get there.
So for me, I welcome the conversation.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
I welcome k Adams and everyone's talking about it because
you want that type of pressure.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
You want it.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
You don't want your opponents You ain't because you know
we'll be able to play it their best if you
give them that bullet board.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
What else you want? You want to get to that top,
You're gonna have to go through with that, So you
might as well go ahead stick your chests out. I'm
following that. This is what is about. I'm fine with that,
but I'd rather they sleep on me. I'll catch that well.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
I mean, first of all, these be telling on is
after however, you look at how Bold performed last year.
Nobody sleeping on him, and no one's going to sleep
on so you get everyone's best shot. Like you think,
Justin Herbert they're gonna lay down. No, Justin Fields and
the Jets they're not gonna lay down.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Well, he might lay out because you can't get the ball.
It was a shot of seekers right there brought him in. Now,
get that new nickname for the Jets offense, you know,
justin Field goals just wow, if they get there.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
And the Jets, I'm telling you man that crying out there,
but the merciless, no, they don't put up with that
kind of Oh you gotta hit a breake, Steve, it's
good as always to
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Frigguring that back after this Bruckles cutry night
To be ko Albright, since I'm on all day at
this point.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Five six sixty nine zero is the text line.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
And sitting across from somebody who liked a ko Albright,
that'd be uh. That'd be Nick Ferguson.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
That would be uh correct for for many many reasons.
You promise knock him out. That's hall of fame voice
is the hall of Famer, Steve Atwater.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
You wouldn't do that to all bray? Would you yet?
Catch me? First? Well, first of all, that wouldn't be
too hard.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Let's let's play here right now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I get about ten steps that e'd be body, and
I can't point right. Here's the thing to remember yesterday.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
As the phasive players, we have been taught to track
down prey, right, and it's.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Better to be the hunter then the haunted. That's all.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
But on that note, pray, yeah, did you catch me?
Because if you don't catch me, you will never hear
the end of it. There's true, very true. So I
wouldn't I know you now if you want so?
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Wait? Wait wait, wait, here's the thing though, here's the thing.
I don't know. Nick still in shape though.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Look once again, if you ever watch National Geographic and
if you ever watch how Big Cass hunt, there never
they never really get even with their prey. The idea
is that they always swipe at what the hind leg.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
So all I was in was get close enough. I
can just trip over tape.
Speaker 5 (01:39):
Right now, Yes, that way that I'm not way out
trying to click that.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Which reminds I'm gonna show you, guys during the break.
I found some high school tape.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
And I'm going to show you.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Oh no, I'm going to show you a play with
me on defense with thing on a tackle. Wait, not
me play, there was another play from junior varsity, and.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I wait to show you. You really want to see this?
It's me whiffing on a tackle. Of course I want
to see it. Are you going to show something bad
about you?
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Yes, because then I'm gonna deny it to everybody else
that it never happened.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
But I'm gonna show it to you guys. Know it waste.
You can't really deny because you just said that you
found footage. I don't recall the answer.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
You are verifying that there is Footage'm employing the shaggy
defense right now.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
What you.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
Popped on it?
Speaker 4 (02:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Yeah, like the c G I why stuff is incredible
these days.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
So I've heard the other night I was out playing
playing cards, some guys like, man, you you you looked
from me, you look like some he looked like a celebrity.
And I was, you know me, I was trying to
be joking, you know, I was like, what a sexier
younger Rob Low.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
No, No, that's not it. This guy from uh.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
No, come on, yeah, just it just gotta be so
good right there. But now I'm looking forward to this
joint practice tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
We got the.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Arizona Cardinals come into town. I think they're a better
football team than a lot of people think. I think
they can challenge for that division this year. They've paid
a lot of investment on that defense, and I think
I think it's gonna be good for the Broncos to
go up against a team with that much talent on
the defense here to join practice in a preseason game,
given that the offense still got some things they need
to iron out.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Well, He's a very interesting thing.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
Anytime you have two teams either playing against one another
or in this case, practicing, you always try to look at,
you know, the familiarity.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
So for me, right off the bed, you got dance Josup,
Zach Allen, and Baron Browning.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Right, So Baron brown is going to be in practice,
and I'm interested to see how that.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Kind of pans out. Is he going to try to
give you know, Garrett Bose and Mike.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Mcglitchy extra work. I want to see those battises. I
want to see the one on once Marvin Harrison Junior said.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
He buked up, right, he did both up but I think.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
It was yes, he was already kind of a I think,
you know body type wide receiver now to twenty five
as a receiver. So it's gonna be interesting to see
because we're not really going to see those guys really
give us those types of battles in the game. So
for me and I used to be opposed to because
I hated joint practices because I thought they you couldn't
(04:17):
really get anything out of it. But competition is so
rapped up in joint practices more than regular preseason games.
You know why, because players can't get kicked out. No,
you can't get kicked out for practice.
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Well, I mean, well it comes good.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Hold on, you start.
Speaker 5 (04:37):
Doing some crazy stuff and you know, just being one
more like we see.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Because The rule is if Ben is my teammate, and
I might hate Ben's guts, but it's just but but yes,
but I'm just saying because not all teammates get along,
but it been.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
But it Ben gets into a squabble, guess.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
What it's going Your responsibility going down because if I don't,
now I'm in troubles.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's right, you know, walking the way, Yes we have,
we got the tape up here. We're here for a
war break exactly.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
And I've had coaches in situations like that where when
that was at Georgia Tank, Georgia o'liary appeared to be
yelling at me, but he really wasn't right.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
He was really just kind of moving.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
His arms around a lot, and he was like, hey man,
great job, and it was not a big deal. So
I can easily see that happening, uh tomorrow. Practice obviously
you want it to be competitive, not combative, which is
probably why there's only one you know you're practicing not too.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
That's Kyle has said something about that where normally the
first day you get good work. In the second day
didn't have a great day, they got to get some revenge.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
They he was for hitting the batter right, that's for
going back and getting the revenge for whatever happened the
day before.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
That's why you don't see two day joint practice as
much anymore. You really don't.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
You remember when the forty nine ers first came back
here and it was the first time which I couldn't
lead that Mike Shanahan was allowed at the practice facility,
which was utterly ridiculous. But anyway, the forty nine ers
came out and they dominated practice and the only person
who looked like they had a fight in them with.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Timp passion him Patrick, and boy he was yes, yes, yeah,
he didn't like that.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
He was he was fished.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
He wouldn't do I've never seen I don't think I've
ever seen a player that angry that publicly about the
effort from his teammates.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yes, I'm seeing like like a little different in the
game though. This Yeah, this is helmet off.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Like this was helmet off all the media, all the
fans up on the bar, all that he was.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah, I see what he was. He was hot, he
was really animated.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
But he was the only guy who showed his anger
and frustration publicly outward because he was just like, well,
We're not gonna ask someone come in our place and
do this to us. But that next day in practice
there was a little more Jews from the Broncos. But
it's about coming out and almost like the first drive.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Tim Patrick, probably well.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Not just from Tim, but going into meeting rooms and
watching you get dominated on your own practice field. That
was like someone coming into your house with dirty shoes on.
You got a white carpet. I don't know about you, Ben.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
This is basically the Charlie Murphy and Eric James Binch.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
Yes, your couch, yes, it's you're not going to allow
someone to do that. But but I don't know about you, Ben,
because like and my grandmother's, I mean, you had regular
seating areas and then you just had an area that no.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
One should sit in with the plastical. So it's that
type of thing. Now, are you going to come in
let Alizon to come in here?
Speaker 4 (08:15):
And you got the plastic on the furniture, why you
got the white carpet. Just allow of them to put
their feet up, you know, waste their drink all on
your your table, or you're going to do something about it.
So this is why I love joint practices. I want
to see what God is going to take that first stand.
They say, you know what, this is Bronco's country and
(08:36):
this is going to be.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
But but the thing is too.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
One of the things that I think Coach Payton has
reiterated to the team is that we want to get
good work here.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
We don't want to be fighting.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
We don't want to and you know a lot of
times if somebody's getting dominated its fight.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
If you get to the domination point, that's what happens.
We want to dominate.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
But there's a way to do that though, because when
we look at some of the special category things that
they're going to try to get accomplished, especially with one
day red zone, right, things really pick up in that
red zone area because you're working with so little space.
I would like to say nine on seven, but there's
not a lot of pop pads popping in nine o seven.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
But when you get inside that red.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Zone, or you're doing one on ones inside the red
zone down the field, usually when that's when it jumps up.
And I'm not saying that I'm advocating for physic cuffs.
You can just go out there and just shut a
guy down completely. You don't even have to talk right,
and I'm sure the fans that's gonna be there.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
They may even use yeah with buster oohs and oz.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I'm hoping that we get one of those padding incomplete
from the fan bash.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
I'll need one of those, please, you definitely need, definitely
need some of that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
And then there comes a point where one team is
getting better or the other most of those things, and
then you do have.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That kind of temper start to flare a little bit
because you know.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
You know, somebody's giving you the business, like you know
wo man I and everybody else knows they give it
to them more.
Speaker 4 (10:15):
That's when it turns up when you hear it from
other individuals and everyone else knows that you get in
the business right now.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I don't think a lot of people, though, would be
excited if you say, like like, I'm excited to seek
them practic against Cardinal, because I think they could be good.
Cardinals are returning their entire starting offense, not defections, uh
and their defense. They added Kalais Campbell, Melan Tomlinson, a
Keem Davis, kith Or Josh Sweat, and drafted Will Johnson
to a defense that was fairly decent last year.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That already has Baron Browning.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Mac Wilson, Joe and Thompson, Buddha Baker, Max Melton, like
they've they've got a squad.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
So I'm kind of excited.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
To go out and practice against the team that I
think is better than the team we're.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
A practice against last week. Well, it all.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Depends on how the coaches script the practice. All those
guys that you name are a great addishes, but do
you allow them to go out there and play with
game tempo in practice?
Speaker 1 (11:05):
And then that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
This is why the joint practice is for me as
an evaluated you get more out of these practices because
that that temperature gauge is now turned up because everyone
is watching and they're close. Your owners there, their owners, there,
your coaches on the field. The scouts are on the field.
And guess what the scouts are doing because they come
what August twenty sixth, both they have to make some cuts.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
So you're looking say, okay, well, how many.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Guys that are we heavy at the cornerback position?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Well could we look at.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
The linebacker position for the Cardinals and scout them right
here on our field? Right? So you know, okay, Well,
we know that these guys may go out who else
on their roster fits our mentality that we know we
can bring here. So that's what's happened. That's what is
going to happen at the practice tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
So Nick, do you think that some of the players
on the well on both rosters, do you think most
specially the rookies and some of the new players, do
you think they fully know the playbook?
Speaker 4 (12:11):
Now?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
I mean what's been put in.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
How comfortable were you at this stage of camp because
it's getting close to you know, a couple of weeks
in and well just about the end of training camp.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Now, how comfortable.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Were you with the playbook at this point in your
career as a rookie?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Only maybe halfway portion?
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Because when you think still think, we're still thinking because
once again, there's a difference between install and OTAs and
training camp, which is kind of they're just kind of
redoing in training camp what they did in OTAs. But
once you get to week one and beyond, it's game planning,
right they now you're tweaking everything that you worked on.
(12:53):
I mean, obviously in my second and third year it
was entirely different, and obviously for a lot of these
players who are playing in the same defense or offense
for a second or third year. It helps you out
and it doesn't help like when you're learning a new
offense every two years or a defense.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
You could say you're a professional athlete, but learning is tough.
It's difficult, and most fans.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
Think, well, it's football, right, It's certain coverages and certain
things you do offensively.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I always tell him this, man.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
I respect Peyton Man because he's a smart quarterback. Even
when he came here from the Colts, from Tom Moore's offense,
he struggled a little kind of getting the nuances of
Gary Kubiek's offense.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
So it happens.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
It's not an indictment of your lack of being able
to pick things up.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
That's just the way the business works. System.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
You're doing a lot of the same things, but you
just have to change the terminology. And the terminology is
so different.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
So I got all different. You make calls one thing
from your last office.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
But it's the difference between thinking and acting sometimes too.
You got to think about that terminology.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
You got to think process that come through instead of
just acting on instinct.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Yeah, once you've once you've got it.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Well, See that's the thing you Football is a thinkings game,
but you don't want to be on the field thinking
like like if someone took a screenshot of a player's
face and you look at his eyes and he's trying
to it's like a mathematical equation, like he's trying to
figure it out.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
No, it's like you see it and you do it.
So they start running one way and stop and look
back the other way. All listen, they don't right and
you're not sure. And here's what I'm confusion.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Here's what I would tell you listeners, and watch any
game on any level Pop Warner, College, high school, even
in the pros. You can tell in the first three
steps whether a guy has intent to make a tackle
or make a play, because that transition is going to
be quick where he's taking too many steps.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
He's still try to figure it out. He's unsure speed
to power versus the shuffle. Yes, that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yes, it is a shuffle.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Would that be the adequate way to describe this play
that you're going to show Steve?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
And uh No, this play that I'm going to show
you guys is uh is what you would know is incompetence.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Okay, it's more like sliding into second base.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
It's more like sliding into the space in between first.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
And second base because you missed your target so badly. Okay, yeah,
I can't wait, oh man, you can. You'll enjoy this one.
You'll enjoy this one when you start def jating.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
I mean people like that, yeah right, yeah, I mean
because I talk a lot, you know, on the other
side of things, but I you know, and I don't,
but I don't.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I don't sit there like shove.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
That in everybody's face, but I saw I feel like
it's only fair to show.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
You some of the mistinesses as well.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Okay, you know what I mean that that that is
uh through, Yes, you know, only for a third period
of time right on the last right and then.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
But but that's a that's sort of the thing. It's like,
I feel like that, and I've always felt like this.
If I show people what I was at my worst,
you know, and then they get to see the rest
of me all the time, then they understand, you know,
that kind of thing.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
So I'm here for it. And I've never had probab
people making fun of your roast culture or any of that.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
So yeah, I mean everyone has everyone has shortcomings, even
you know, some of the best players in our.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Sport, and mine would be playing defense. Yeah so.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Wait, Steve, you know this, not every player who goes
out for football is cut from the same colots. To
play on the defensive side of the ball, you got
to have a different mentality. Like with offense, you're running
from people. Defense, you're running to go get them mentality.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
I love to running away from people. First of it.
I was a kid when we were you know, when
we were young, that was like to keep keep away
with the ball or catch the man with the can.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
You know.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
I was that dude. So yeah, you can't get me.
Speaker 4 (16:53):
You know, speaking of which, I definitely want to get
you guys peeing on this because when we look back
at the San Francisco game, you know, not too many
people who were happy about the starting offense, his performance
and RJ.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Harvey got the start.
Speaker 4 (17:06):
And I've been listening I practice listening to other media
people talk about how RJ. Harvey didn't really stick with
certain plays. He was trying to bounce a lot of things.
And for me, the idea is that when you look
at football from an America standpoint, there are less players
outside than there are inside. A play may be designed
to go inside, but the running back may see something outside.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
And as long as.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
He's gaining positive yards and keeping you ahead of the chains,
I don't know proble.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Wish there was a cutback lane he missed in that game.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
There were two runs that I'm like, one of them
you definitely should have seen a lane. The other one,
I'm like, Okay, I understand you made a decision, But
that's what it is like. You're seeing You're seeing the
run fits as you're back there. You're seeing the run
fit and making a decision in real time on do it.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You know, can I get through there?
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Or can I do I need to stretch this thing
out further and see if I can get yards this way.
And he's always been the fastest guy or one of
the fastest guys on the field, so I worked for him.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Now you're in the pros where.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Everybody's fast like that, You've got to learn to pick
and choose your battles on that.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
Yeah, And like as a running bag, sometimes the coach
has got to trust you, you know, because you'll make
some of those plays and because.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
They don't don't.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Ye ye ye.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Running a Broncos country tonight bed to all Rdnick First
and Steve ad Er, Zach Segers back there, producing will
be back after this. Ben's be Albright, Dick Ferguson the
Hall of Famer, Steve Adwater Hall of Shamer back there,
Zach Segers, Steve Harrington.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Never let that one go.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Ever, Once I saw the picture of that dude, like
like in regular and how he looks like you, never
letting that go, I.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Don't think that's a bad dick. I'll take that. I
look like the honk from Stranger Things. That's you were
the one that called them a hounk, not me. I'm
just saying you didn't say that. He put that. He
put that out there, wouldn't me, but record, I don't
think that's the what's killing common to you. He's Steve
Harington for Stranger Things. That's what he looks like. Nah,
(19:09):
before the facial hair, not as much, but before that,
when he's clean, he looks like Steve Harrits frustration thing.
I'm just saying, like it does. I look at the
pictures of uside like, oh wow, did I never noticed this? Interesting?
Speaker 2 (19:20):
I guess you's got a band like the Dude to play, Steve,
you've got a band, they're like good. Mm it's called
like DJL like Joe Like then they're.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Good or that's much for your bands? Well listen because
I'm not listening to Taylor Swift over there on the
New Hype podcast right now. What see?
Speaker 4 (19:45):
First of all, I said that you have like difficulty
giving music who artist credit.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
I didn't toss out trouble getting credit to you did trouble.
There's a number of artists that you don't like. Who
there are? There are somebody I think. I mean we
were talking about Coldplay at one time.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
I followed Coldplay around on tour before they were the
band of adultery.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
You know what the name that they died ceo?
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah busted at the Coldplay concert she know his wife
because the camera.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Crazy.
Speaker 4 (20:19):
I was like, bro, so now that if you happen
to get in a car with your wife or girlfriend
and she's playing a Coldplay song, does that now kind
of send Antanna's off based off what you just said
about to now.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
She wants to go to the show. Maybe that's what
you know? I got a friend I want to go
to the show with. Yeah, Now, we're not doing that,
although you might get busted there. Who knows, is there
like a group.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
A band or a singer that you might listen to
that No one would have ever expected that.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Not really, because uh, I listen into like old school
R and B. You know when when when most of
those my.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Guys, my guy passed away, nothing like him and like
Shania Twain and like that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
No, okay, I mean when I'm like, yeah, I'll.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Listen to Teddy Pedagrass and all that kind of stuff,
it could be like I'm you know, all of the OJ's,
you know, they started looking at me like I'm crazy
with that.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
That's the great thing about music because music has no barriers, right,
It's just it's just good music. Like the other night, yes,
like Grant played the Ohio Players, right, and I remember
the Ohio Players album covers because if you're a fan
of the group but you know of them, the album
(21:43):
covers were always kind of iffy, like they always pushed
the omelope for that time period, Like they have one
album cover with the woman on the cover and they
have honey and I'll just leave it right there.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
You get your idea.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
It's like, uh, I didn't who is the one? I
think it was the outcast and kind of pushed it
with a couple there.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yes, you know what I'm talking about. Yes, you know
what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Yes, But it's one of those things that you you know,
Ben is right, Like I consider myself to have a
very eclectic you know music who tastes like I I'll
go over.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
In the country, right? Have I listened to Tellis Swift? Absolutely? Now?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
Was that?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Were you like that before football or did football? Like
hear the music? Like, did that bring in? At what
point did you start listening to like country and stuff?
Because like, did you come up listening to that or
did that you developed his.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
First concussion that kind of he was like you know
that Morgan Wall they say, they said, who's playing that? Damn?
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Because I like I came up mostly on like R
and B and stuff, but then I branched out later,
like I branched out into white people music later.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
You know, well.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
You know exactly what I mean.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Okay, so I'll say this my music to taste that
happened before I ever touched the league, and that was
because of listening to Casey case On top.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Forty Okay, yeah, yeah, that's what it was for me
to be there.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
You're going being introduced to all those different type of artists,
and you gotta think about it. I mean, I grew
up in the eighties and the nineties. That's the big
hair bands. Yeah right, you got Poison, you got yeah, yeah,
those guys. Then you had the flock of seagulls, right,
so you all over the place. But for me, that's
when music was music. Would you been in the.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Mirror like with the with the right or Mike singing
and everything. No, I didn't do that. That's that's going
too far. I didn't. I didn't do that. Now like
I didn't do that. What was interesting? Now, don't forget
that the band was in the band once, it was
in a boy band.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Trying to find video of that after I show you
video during the bride, not, I'm not trying to find video.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
He needed that silver some is that? Yeh? Mom got
some phs somewhere. It's there's some purple vlure jumpsuits and
high top face is not It is not good in
my life. It is not good.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And you saw Pastford Blue Ryan's band, No, I did not. Yeah,
Ryan was good. Mine is hilariously bad. I'm gonna show
you something Patford Blue, so it's.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
On the YouTube. Okay, we got that on the YouTube.
I did not know in this case the bluetube.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
Patrick, Yes, but you know, yeah, they got to look
at him. Look he's got the knee high socks with
like the three stripes. Oh, it's good, it's glorious. They
were good, like they were good bands, like we were
not good. We were delusional enough to think we were. Yeah,
they were a cover band, right, well we were. They
get the had originals. Okay, we were doing we were doing.
We were doing like new Edition and mid Condition one
(24:48):
twelve like all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Oh yeah, we had the choreographs. We had a choreograph.
Move shiny soup guy. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Oh it was purple sparkly No Diddy, Oh yeah we didn't. No,
we haven't no bad boys for life over here, horrible being.
Oh yeah, mom's got some video that I have not
letting that out of the vault. I let these I'll
(25:16):
let these these football low lights.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Out the vault, but I'm not letting that at the vault.
That was I'll tell you this. It's funny that you
talk about his low lights and highlights.
Speaker 4 (25:25):
I don't know, how did you guys feel about how
the Broncos defense perform. I know it's first preseason game
and the ideas not giving a lot of credit, But.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
No, I thought they played well. They had one busted
play with the Milan, I mean, and it wasn't really busted.
It was just they got executed by the offense.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
I'll say it because a lot of people say, oh, man,
McMillan gave it.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
Guess what a quarterback, you're gonna get me something? Yeah,
he was in good position. I thought he played it well.
Yeah that never seen it was playing played that ball
really well. I mean you rolling, Look, I thought the
defense played well. Outside of that big play, they didn't
give anything else up. He got being a little and
also a little bit Heno got held on that touchdown,
but they got something in the corner. Couldn't it looks
(26:11):
like that he got help. But other than that, I mean,
they didn't give up anything else. The only other points
came in they safety bowl.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Yeah. Well, when you think about for me, the player
who continued to show up is the player who's still
waiting for a deal, and that was Nick Benito because
he was getting off the ball, he was in the backfield.
I don't know what what he learned from that Thursday
practice last week against the forty nine ers, but it
(26:36):
seemed like that he had to read on a snapcount
and he was he was in the backfield.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Felt like he learned these offensive lineman.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Ain't you know what?
Speaker 4 (26:43):
Yes, just just I know it's just the first preseason game,
so I don't want to overhype this. Well, could you
imagine based on what we saw last year from Nick
Benito and and in that preseason game watching his get off,
if he can turn that get off into sacks, forced
fumbles and the Broncos.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Let's just say it's Week five and you still haven't
paid him. I mean, prices that prices, it's only going up,
it's only going up.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
But he's sitting he's sitting there waiting for Trey Henderson
and Michael Parsons to sign, because that's going to raise
the floor, the average of the top five floor.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
He's he's best interest not to sign. I think he's thinking.
I don't think he's even thinking about that right now. Well,
I mean he knows that he made his nation know
that me ain't know in the back of their mind.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
But you can't be on the football field thinking about
I want to get paid. Yeah see okay, So well,
even though you can say, well, he's not.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
Thinking about it, I'm saying that he's thinking about it
because every time he gets an opportunity to pass rush
and you get teams in the second and third and long,
trust me, he's thinking about it. Yeah, because every sack
he gets in pressure, that's more money in his pocket.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Yeah yeah, man, But NIGGI, what are you thinking about
that when you're paying Oh yeah, yes, was.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Undrafted different Like this dude came in Hungary undrafted. So
you're on the field thinking if I may just playing,
we'll get paid more money. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
Okay, Well here's the way I thought about it. My
first year in the league, I was like I would
play for free. My second year, I looked at every
tackle like Mario Brothers the classic Marto Brook.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Every tackle was a coin. That's how That's how it
played in my mind. Tackle. That's why I would push
people out of the way to make the tackle. Yet
it's we gotta get a check A traffic.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Six six nine zero is the text line A couple
of texts coming in eight two eight says he looks
exactly like Steve Arrington exactly.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Come on, uh three or three and using food cross
any gap, Yes they do, they cross any divide. Well done.
They an' might have their No Wood singing group, saying.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
There is absolutely no way you could know the answer
to that because literally tens of people that want just
back in the in the nineties and there is no
there's nothing publicly out there.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
So YouTube, no, there's no patchwork blue videos on YouTube.
No YouTube would invent if we were doing stuff. Okay,
this is back in the day.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah, Uh, my mom's got some some VHS video somewhere,
so one of these days somebody will somebody will convince
her to let it go. But I've been pretty good
aby keeping that in the vault. We were we were
epically bad. This was like like we thought we were hot.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
You know what, back in the day. Man, we were
so bad. Because you gotta believe that. You can't believe
that you suck keep doing it.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
We did suck, though, Like Monny, when you go back
and watch a video a few years after over.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Movie, like, oh my god, we were terrible.
Speaker 5 (29:35):
Man.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
How did people came to this.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
I remember me and one of my buddies were there
was a young lady on the phone. This is back
when I was in my third fourth grade. Who can
sing the best?
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Man? I was terrible. I was like, man, he got it,
he can sing better than me. I'll hit that. Boys
to men, there we go, right, that's like, give me that.
I always got him.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
There's a there's a moment you almost got him, almost
sucking him right into saying that.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Honestly, that used to be my best move back in
high school.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Was excellent to him. Hit him with the hit him
with the voice. I used to sing a little bit.
I was all right, but it was not we worked.
We were collectively terrible at what we did.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
You see.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
That's where you know, like if people always ask if
you didn't play football, what else would you want to do?
And people must sit and say, well, you know what,
I want to be in the band, And I'm like,
you're not even thinking, oh enough, No, no, you want
to be the.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Lead singer in any band, right, because it's the lead singer.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Yes, from that, because when you first start, everything is great,
everyone's thinking about team.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Then after a couple of successful songs, next thing you
know the singer is going so long. Oh yeah, the
band broke up. I mean even though he's a terrible band.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Like if the front man gets known, like name me
another guy from from limb Biscuit besides Fred Durst, and
that guy was terrible, Like you know, like our Chad
Kroger for Nickelbacks, Like you can't name any of the guys.
We can probably name Ms West Borty, but those guys
kind of stick out.
Speaker 4 (31:01):
Like I mean with Fred Durts, it was always he
always had on the red the red ball cap.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Recognizable. Have you seen him? Have you seen him now?
Speaker 2 (31:11):
He's after touring. Dude, he has like this grandpa gandolf
hair and this beard stuff.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
It looks like one recognizable guys. Question who has the
most on the line with this joint practice players or teams? Team?
Speaker 2 (31:30):
You have super Bowl? You've been talking all month about
how you got super Bowl caliber team out reminds you
of the Super Bowl? Thats all I ain't talking about this.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Wait wait he said it, But yeah, he has been
said it for him and it's been doing too many man,
And you know, like Kate Adams has been really pushing
this whole idea and concept This is why after the
first preseason game against forty nine ers, the offices didn't
really look well. Fansik of Twitter to voice their opinion.
(32:02):
But this is the price of doing business when expectations
are race or at certain levels. So it is a
differ Brad, because I need to come out and play well.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
I love I love in faris to Seawan. I love
him setting the standard at excellence. I love that because
I talked about this in the last show. But we
we had the sag in the army, right, we set
the standard at excellence, and if you can't meet that,
we're gonna thank you kindly for trying to find people
who can't.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Ye know, Yeah, I think it was more.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
Having the team feel comfortable having a conversation and you know,
being associated with uh be in the Super Bowl, you know,
sudden just you.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Know, getting touching it, you know, feeling it, getting used
to it.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
I don't think he was all out saying we're going
to we're gonna dominate the MC West, We're gonna go
undefeated in.
Speaker 1 (32:50):
The playoffs, and we're going to this. I don't think
he was.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
He would even if he if coach Faydon were to
say that I don't have a problem with it. The
reason I don't have a problem with it is because
both you and I played for this organization on the
Mister B and Mike Shenahan.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Where that was expected. Yeah, but that's what you're trying
to return to. We weren't out saying we're gonna win
the Super Bowl. No, And how did he said that?
Speaker 4 (33:16):
Either?
Speaker 1 (33:16):
He said, I want I want to feel comfortable with
us getting.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
There, but he wants the team to think with that mentality,
because if you don't think with that mentality, then it's
not You can't even think that that's achievable.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
If you believe it, then you're not going to get there.
So for me, I welcome the conversation.
Speaker 4 (33:32):
I welcome k Adams and everyone's talking about it because
you want that type of pressure.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
You want it.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
You don't want your opponents You ain't because you know
we'll be able to play it their best if you
give them that bullet board.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
What else you want? You want to get to that top,
You're gonna have to go through with that, So you
might as well go ahead stick your chests out. I'm
following that. This is what is about. I'm fine with that,
but I'd rather they sleep on me. I'll catch that well.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
I mean, first of all, these be telling on is
after however, you look at how Bold performed last year.
Nobody sleeping on him, and no one's going to sleep
on so you get everyone's best shot. Like you think,
Justin Herbert they're gonna lay down. No, Justin Fields and
the Jets they're not gonna lay down.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Well, he might lay out because you can't get the ball.
It was a shot of seekers right there brought him in. Now,
get that new nickname for the Jets offense, you know,
justin Field goals just wow, if they get there.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
And the Jets, I'm telling you man that crying out there,
but the merciless, no, they don't put up with that
kind of Oh you gotta hit a breake, Steve, it's
good as always to
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Frigguring that back after this Bruckles cutry night
