10-29-25 KOA Sports Hour 2 with Rick Lewis

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Six six nine Zeros or kiawe commas Bury Hill textallon.

(00:02):
If you want to interact with us, we will roll
through the games of week eight coming up at four
forty five. Always a fun segment to be able to
do with you. And we'll get some sound here from
Sean Payne. He made some he was still testing today,
which is which is fine. I mean, I'm sure that
there's a multiple reasons why, and I think at one
point he was asked about the Texas defense and then uh,

(00:24):
he was asked again about the Texans defense, and he
was not thrilled that he was asked twice, but that.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Was it's pretty funny stuff.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
But he did say something that I definitely want to
spend some time on here. At a second, when when
it comes to the plan for CJ. Stroud and the
Texans offense, he made kind of a reference there, and
I he wasn't intentionally telling us what the game plan was.
In fact, he was very careful a couple of times
when he was asked about, say the role of Jade

(00:52):
Baron for example. Now I'm not gonna tell you what
I'm gonna do with him. You're just gonna have to
sort of watch it, but he did give us a
little bit of insight on on what they did, what
Vance Joseph did specifically in that game against the Dallas
Cowboys that I think it actually can be the way
you approach CJ. Stroud in the Texans. So we'll get
to that sound here in just a second. But I
mentioned as we're going to break, as we're talking about

(01:15):
the trade deadline, which is now less than a week away.
Rick Mark Andrews is actually the tight end that it's
his odds and he's you know, it's gambling, so it
doesn't necessarily have to be legitimate in this case. As
far as the numbers, that's just it's kind of made up.
But the odds are best odds are him to stay
with the Ravens, right. The next one is Tampa Bay

(01:38):
and then basically neck and neck is.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
With the Broncos. The Broncos are.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Right up there as a team that would be interested
in Mark Andrews. And the only thing that's very interesting
thing for me about that is seeing this edition of
Mercedes Lewis actually because you're trying to inject the room
with veteran leadership, with consistency, with guys that can block

(02:04):
But it would also be nice to have a guy
that could perceive as well, because Mercedes Lewis, for what
he is right now, that's not what you're going to
bring him in. Now, maybe there'll be a package or
two that you get on the goal line. And I
mean he's a really big guy. So yeah, he's six'
six hundred and seventy, Pounds so, yes you would target,
him but he's here to be an inline blocker for

(02:25):
as long as he's available for.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Us BUT i would be intrigued By Mark. Andrews what about? You,
yeah of COURSE i. Would three time pro. Bowler he's
what is he? About thirty thirty? One MAYBE i think
that's about, right so, still you, know still not too.
Old he's had some really good years with The, ravens
and he's a Good blocker's he's a really rock solid tight.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
End yeah he's. Thirty he can catch the.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
Ball he's a good.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
Blocker he's got good size six five two. Fifty but
you're right About Marcedes. Lewis now that you have, HIM
i see them Using Mercedes lewis kind of like they
Did pelchesky as when they would Bring pelchesky in as

(03:11):
an eligible. Receiver you wouldn't have to do that with
A Mercedes. Lewis but he's going to.

Speaker 5 (03:15):
Be a.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Really good blocker out, there big body. Blocker they can
also catch a ball. Too he only caught one pass
last year for the whole. Season BUT i am a
bit intrigued by him BECAUSE i do think he can
add something to this. Scene, Now Mark andrews would be
a step or two Above Mercedes. Lewis what would you
have to give up for?

Speaker 1 (03:36):
HIM i mean at this point AND i go look
at his, CONTRACT i think this is kind of his last.
YEAR i, mean he was a discussion even last. Year
right there's would the The broncos be in consideration For
Mark andrews even a year? Ago and at thirty years.
Old The ravens are in precarious, spots. Right they just
got their second win of the season this last. Week

(03:57):
Lamar jackson's coming. Back they're playing tomorrow night Against. MIAMI
a lot of people expect they're gonna win that, game
AND i think they. ARE i would say because of that,
division The Baltimore ravens probably don't view themselves as sellers
like that right.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
Now but you go to the other.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Side of that and, say, well you, know they just
Got Isaiah likely. Back he's been hurt since the. Offseason
he's finally. Available he's playing. Now and you think about
the construction of that. TEAM i don't know if they
lose a ton of. Me Mark andrews right now has
twenty four catches on the, year right in seven. Games
but also the offense has been kind of a. Mess
but we know what he's. Like he's a multi time pro.

(04:37):
Bowler he's. Reliable he's also a very good. Blocker The
broncos probably should be in the market more for an
interior offensive, Lineman LIKE i know we're getting in the
candy store here talking about. Receivers, Hey Jacobe myers Or
Mark andrews Or David. NJOKU i, mean he all be,
great but the reality, is if they're going to make any,
move its probably for an interior offensive lineman more than,

(04:57):
anything just.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
For depth or to Replace.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Pelchat, well it depends on on the level of player you, get, Right.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
Do you think they really Like?

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Polowski, NO i know they really Like, polchowski and he's
been here AND i think they like what he's doing
so far there left. Guard but it also really messes
with what you want to. Do you talked about. Yourself
they like to bring him into the jumble. Packages they
like to bring him in and have some options. There
you don't have that right, now, Right so maybe maybe
that's gonna Be Mercedes lewis. Role, right he's gonna be

(05:27):
kind OF i, mean at six for, six two hundred seventy,
pounds he's kind of like an extra offensive lineman in
a lot of.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
Ways so maybe that is part of the. DEAL i,
mean let me see IF i can look Up Mark andrew's.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
CONTRACTS i seem to remember him being kind of at
the end of that. Deal SO i was here a
whole on. Second, yeah so he's, yeah he's a free
agent next. Year he's A. Ufa so this is the
final year of his contract there with The. Ravens, yeah
they're going to pay him. Again, NO i wouldn't think. So, so,
yeah you're beginning a rental right To.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
Pelcheski you, Know i'm not an expert at evaluating offensive,
line but not too many people, are by the, way
but my eyes tell me he's been.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Solid you don't hear his, name which is a good.

Speaker 3 (06:12):
Thing so he's not committing penalties and when alignment's not
committing penalties typically means he's not being beat on a regular.
BASIS i do know. THAT i Think i'm just looking
down the. ROAD i have a Feeling pelcheski could be
the starting left guard next.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
YEAR i think you're right to be.

Speaker 4 (06:29):
RIGHT i don't think they Bring Ben powers.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Back, well that was always a discussion we had coming
into this, year was you're going to make some pretty
significant decisions with your offensive. Line come up this, offseason,
right and you're going to probably go to the draft
and bring in some guys that are either going to
start or compete or if nothing, else gives you some
options if you decide to move on and move in

(06:51):
a new direction with some of these. Players so Pin
powers was one of the. Guys mike mcglinchy might be
one of those. Guys you're gonna give yourself some. Options
Gara bol's going to be.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Here that's your left.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Tackle that's already. Done you also got to be looking at.
Center you are and be looking at, it so there's multiple.
Positions So Quentin miters And Garret boles are pretty much
your locked and everything is great there now if you
know you win The Super bowl this, year and and
then you, know maybe you have some different feelings about.
It Ben powers is expected back In. DECEMBER i mean

(07:21):
that that's, possibility so he can come back and give
you some. Depth so you're not you're not done, there
but you're going to be thinking about it in the off.
Season to your point about Whether Alex pelchewski plays well
enough or you Tell Ben, powers you know, What, hey
you Got wally Piffs, man it.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Is what it.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
Is we're gonna we're gonna have you as our backup left.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Guard and you just brought up, mcglinchy and Maybe pelchwski
takes over the right tackle.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Spot that's a possibility.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Too and then so if you go out and get
a left guard now that you're really liking that you
can get at a good, price maybe that's the move
you bring him in, now just for, depth and then
next year you Pop pelchowski over to right tackle and
pop this guy into left.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Guard that could possibly.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Happen absolutely could five six six nine zeros A Kwa
Common Spirit heal text Line we'll come.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
BACK i want to play the sound for.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
You Sean payton kind of more or less telling us
what it would look like on how the defense will
win without Patser. Tan we'll get to that coming up.
Next this is our chance to win one thousand dollars
come up in the next five minutes thanks To Merceges
bins Of. Lilton expect to be Without Passer tan coming
up here in this game and perhaps. Longer we've been

(08:36):
talking about it now for a few. Days, again wide ranging.
SPECULATION i don't, Know.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Rick i'm trying.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Not i'm Gonna i'm gonna be a glass half full,
Guy i'm gonna say at this, moment because we got
the report From ian this morning saying that The broncos
are not thinking about putting him ON ir and there
was nothing to report.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
TODAY i, mean he'll show up on the practice.

Speaker 1 (09:01):
REPORT i don't know if that's out just, yet but
he'll show up on the practice, report and oh there it,
Is boom running my.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Inbox Dray Green Law, FULL.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Pj Locke, Limited Nate, Atkins Marvin, ms And Paster tan
all not practicing as.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
Expected, well the one good, thing glass half. Full they're
deep at the position they. Are Jatte baron seems to
be kind of figuring things out a little slower than
people maybe. Thought but he had the pick against The.
Cowboys seems to be getting more and more snaps back.

(09:35):
There you WONDER i thought at, first like maybe you
Move jakwan McMillan out on the, boundary but he's playing
so well in the, slot you probably don't do.

Speaker 4 (09:47):
That Maybe baron will get some snaps out.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
There he, Might and it sounds like we have played
the SoundBite earlier From sean that they really do like
What Chris abram's strain offers, there and he had some
nice moments in a tail end of last.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Year SO i would imagine that's your first guy.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Up you probably are going to continue to add To
Jade baron's, plate but you haven't been in a hurry
this entire, time SO i don't know if this necessarily
changes that. Trajectory but there was something That sean said
in his pressure today because he was asked About Vance
joseph's adjustments After pat went, down BECAUSE i Remember pad
didn't play the entire second. Half, now The broncos had

(10:23):
a sizeable lead at that, point.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
But this is an.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Offense In dallas's, OFFENSE i could score points in a,
Hurry so you know that they got a lot of.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Talent So shaw was asked about, this BUT.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
I think he gave us a little bit of an
insight onto what the game plan will be Without patzertan going.

Speaker 2 (10:40):
Forward and here's what he, said the.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Approach to playing that.

Speaker 6 (10:44):
Team if you looked at that team when eighty eight was,
down their production. Changed but when he was up with,
three you, know and so, healthy you, know with the tight,
end and they were putting up big. Numbers AND i
thought we did a good job of affecting the, quarterback

(11:07):
disrupting the timing of the passing game against a really
good passing. Team and so that was that was big
in the, game you, know our time of, possession but
also the opponent's time of.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
Possession so he said it right there in the, middle
and it only peached my interest BECAUSE i remember talking
To nick On monday AND i asked, Him, okay what's
the adjustment.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
Here what IS vj gonna?

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Do because you don't have passer ten out, there that's
a that's a pretty big difference in your Secondary and he,
said there's gonna be a lot of onus put on
the front guys on the pass. Rush those guys have
to impact the. Play they're just gonna have to find
a way to do it at a higher level they're
gonna have there's gonna have to be more pressure on,
them more so than the back, end which again it's

(11:55):
like sort of flips your brain because everybody's thinking, Like,
okay well now you're going to play more zone because
you don't want to Leave kad out there on an
island too much if you can't avoid.

Speaker 4 (12:04):
That.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Right it's different when you have passer ten and say
half the field's. GONE i got passer. Ten let's that's case,
Now so WOULD vj have to adjust? It and maybe
he'll have some, Adjustments but the biggest adjustment is going
to be the pass rush has to find wins upfront
and they've got to affect the pass more than doing
anything differently on the back.

Speaker 4 (12:23):
End, yeah and you AND i talk about this every.

Speaker 3 (12:25):
WEEK i love the segment we do in the pregame
AND i think every week you OR i will, say,
well we KNOW ps two is going to lock down
one side of the, field so you don't even have
to worry about.

Speaker 4 (12:37):
Him and when you have a corner like, him.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
It allows you to take a lot more chances with
your pass rush and your blitz and the things that
they've been doing all. Season now that's an, issue and
you're right that front four is going to really have
to bring the. Heat they may have to be a
little more. Conservative they maybe won't be blitzing quite as
much as.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
They have been.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
DOING i think you may have to Give Chris abrams
drain a little. Help maybe safety is going to have
to help him out a little. Bit halfunga can certainly
help with.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
That and then you.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
Hope and you Heard Sean payton say That kad is
a really smart football player High FOOTBALL. Rq you hope
because one CONCERN i would have with a guy who
hasn't played a whole lot is some busted coverages where
he's in the wrong. Place and that's where a leader
Like halfunga is going to really have to help him,

(13:35):
out make sure he knows what he's doing on the
various coverages that they.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
Have so that's something we'll be watching for On. SUNDAY
i think.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
It's a fantastic point, too because, again you never want
to lose the best cornerback in the league for any
length of. Time but having that safety tandem back there
is so significant as far as the communication and being
able to relay and functions such a big. Deal i'm
glad you brought that. Up all, right when we come
back there is, well first of, all you have a

(14:04):
chance to go to The Broncos raiders game And i'll
tell you a specific time when we come. Back bonix
has some really good stuff today too THAT i want
to get into. Specifically and you saw it how he
ran after and Got Pat bryant's first. Touchdown ball told
a really good story on why he does. That we'll
get to that.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Coming bryant in the corner of THE. O brian makes
the catch touchdown ten for twenty four.

Speaker 6 (14:32):
Yards And Pat bryant's FIRST nfl touchdown reception was a.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Beauty he beat Dwike Quz. Bridges that was.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Awesome and by the, Way Pat bryant is going to
join us on the program, tomorrow looking forward to. That
it'll be in the first segment around three ten or.
So but we'll have the Rookie Pat bryant on our.
Program big game for the. Rookies Jade barron got his first,
Interception Pat bryant got his first, touchdown AND i guess
a first FOR. Rj harvey hopefully first of mini first

(15:05):
hat trick For Archie. Harvey, yes it's probably expecting a
lot if he's gonna do that every single.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
Week BUT.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
Rj harvey lining up all over the place certainly has
been great in the passing. Game good to see him
getting going a little bit more in the running. Game
five six six Nights zemers Or Kwai Commas Spirit health text.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
Line so that was the highlight of the.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
TOUCHDOWN a, reminder we're gonna give you a chance to
Win Broncos raiders tickets in about thirty, minutes.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
So we'll be listening right around five o five for
that cue to call.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
FOR i do that for the, Streamers, rick because they
always complain that these contests are mostly for the on
air crowd because they get it just a little bit
earlier than the.

Speaker 2 (15:44):
Streamers BUT i love the.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Streamers you're talking on the iHeart App, yes, YES i
love the streamers a little.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
Behind just a little.

Speaker 1 (15:50):
Bit as you, know we've been doing this episode absolutely
SO i want to give them a chance because we
love the, streamers we love the on, air we love.
Everybody if you're, listening we appreciate. You we're gonna give
you a. Chance It's bible five tonight will be your first.
Chance will be your chance today to Win Broncos raiders.
Tickets of course we'll give away a pair tomorrow and
a pair On friday as. Well so that was the.
Touchdown here was what Bo nick's. Was he was asked

(16:12):
about why he does, that why he went and grabbed
the ball For Pat bryant right after the, touchdown and
here's what he.

Speaker 7 (16:19):
Said, USUALLY i mean right when it hits you, KNOW
i knew that was past, first so that was WHAT
i was, Thinking and he dropped the, ball SO i
THOUGHT i could grab it for, Him and usually the
ball guys do a good job of grabbing it and
giving it to our equipment. Guys but it's just something,
about you, know seeing the joy on the face when
you hit him their first. Touchdown they realized that it
was our first AND i get to keep the, football

(16:41):
and it's pretty cool to see the smiles on their.
Faces and you, KNOW i remember it was, like WHAT i,
did you, know mine for the first. Time so it's
awesome when you see a guy score in THE nfl
for the first.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
Time that's a pretty heavy, thing, RIGHT i mean you
were talking about were talking about different traits for the
leaders of your, team the captains of your, team specifically your,
quarterback and in the midst of throwing that touchdown pass
and he pumps his fist and he runs b lines
to get the. BALL i Just i'm so impressed by.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
That that's what your quarterback.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Does as we, Say Bo nicks has all the, intangibles
that's one of. Them he is a natural, leader and
that's what you would expect your quarterback to. Do for a.
Rookie you just threw him a touchdown. Pass that was super.
COOL i mentioned it on the broadcast AND.

Speaker 4 (17:34):
I thought that that's just so.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Badass he runs all the way down, there not just to,
congratulate and wanted to make sure he got the, ball
and that's one he'll keep for the rest of his.
Life FIRST nfl touchdown. Catch and you can See Pat,
ryan you, know on THAT. Rj harvey. Run he threw
a heck of a block on that run.

Speaker 2 (17:55):
And wouldn't have happened without.

Speaker 4 (17:57):
Him when you.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
Do stuff like that as a wide, receiver they're going
to give you more chances to make. Plays and that
was a, great great, throw perfect throw and a great
catch By Pat ryan.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
Too bunis was asked about the young players having such
a big, game and here's what he.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
SAID i think it just shows our.

Speaker 7 (18:13):
Depth we have guys ready to, roll we have guys
ready to break. Through our experienced guys are doing a
really good job of leading those guys and get them,
ready and then those guys are you, know when they
get their, shot they're making, it making it. Work but
it also shows that our experienced guys are you, know
doing a good job because they're you, know taking a
lot of the attention allowing other guys to get. Open

(18:34):
SO i, probably you, know expect that in the, future
expect that in the next few, games and you, know
it's good to see a younger guy you'll kind of
find his way in this, league find his way in
the offense and continue to make. Blaze and we've got
a lot of young guys that are going to continue
to do.

Speaker 1 (18:48):
That it's it's sort of, interesting right because we haven't
heard much about expectations for the rookie class they got.
OUTWARDLY i think some fans have expect, like, Well i'd
like to see more From Jade. BARON i have, expectations
especially now That Pat bryan's, down that we get to
see more From jaday BARN i have expectations OF. Rj

(19:09):
harvey maybe a little bit in the passing, game but
even then It's Shak dobbins, show, RIGHT i, mean he's
he's the lead, back and then With Pat, bryan he's
what wide receiver four or five something like. That we
haven't we haven't really talked about expectations for the, rookies
As bonix pointed, out because right now they're death they're
not they're not. Starters so is this about that time

(19:31):
of the year and a what point do you think
we should have expectations for?

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Them, yeah it starts feeling like this is when those
kind of, guys rookies start to figure it. Out and
there's been talk around the league that when you look
at The broncos draft class been a. Disappointment Jade barron
hasn't played that.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
MUCH.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
Rj harvey really didn't play much until this last. Game
he WOULD i, think, yeah the day Had morson absent
in him the game, before AND i started, thinking, well MAYBE.
Rj harvey got in his, Doghouse peyton's doghouse a little.
Bit well apparently. Not if he, did he's certainly out
of the doghouse right. Now and then you look At Pat.

(20:09):
BRYANT i think we had a little higher expectation for
him as. Well we really liked him in training camp in.
Preseason and what does he? Have comedy?

Speaker 4 (20:20):
Catches?

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Eleven, YEAH i think look at, UP i think it's more.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
Than eleven or.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
Twelve it's not, money, yeah but, yeah and not any targets.
EITHER i think maybe less than.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Ten, YEAH i know you're. Right he has seven seven,
catches okay seven for eighty six yards in the.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Touchdowns and so this has been the talk around the
league that The broncos draft class has underperformed and been a.
Disappointment but you could see the potential certainly IN Rj.
HARVEY Rj, harvey he could be a difference maker on
this team if he continues to ascend the way he

(20:55):
did and look the way he did against The, cowboys
AND i have no reason to think he. Can't, man
what a great running back to oh With dobbins And
harvey because they do compliment each.

Speaker 2 (21:04):
Other you do know WHAT i like.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
About the seven catches That Pat bryant, Has six of
them went for a first, time that's.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
Right, Yeah, Yeah so that's, incredible and he's made some
really good. Blocks only twelve point three yards per, catch
so it's not like he's catching twenty yard bombs down the.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Field these are twelve.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
POINTS i mean he's catching every single, pass and he's
moving the chains and.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
Blocking wide receivers are underappreciated by, fans certainly not by
coaches and his. Teammates And i've seen him all season
long when he's out, there make some good blocks in
the run, game and he has dropped a couple. Passes
BUT i think he's got big. Potential as we talked last,
week WHEN i was, thinking, man they maybe should go

(21:47):
get another wide, receiver and maybe they. Will you could
see the potential In mims And franklin And Pat. Bryant
there's something there is that enough to get you deep
into the poet. Season they've been a little, inconsistent and
that's maybe where if you went out and got a big,
time say a real wide receiver to, veteran could certainly

(22:12):
help you in the.

Speaker 4 (22:12):
Postseason you said.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
Disappointment that's an interesting word when.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
It's talking about the the, rookies, right And Saban, jones
who hasn't had a chance to play very much either
because again it's a very.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Deep defensive line. Group right.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
ON q has had a couple of home he's. Flashed yeah,
yeah but again there's a deep edge. Group and if everybody's,
Up Joe eilis is, back well that's That Key. Robinson
you're going to be a guy that's either playing special
teams or you're gonna be.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Healthy scratch.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
That it doesn't anyone never felt like disappointment to. Me
right this rookie class because as you as we've talked,
about eighty seven percent of last year's roster is, back
and you you brought back guys that we, wondered LIKE
Dj jones was the Guy when we get to the,
offseason we're, like you, KNOW i don't.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
Know they've got a lot of dudes.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
There they still haven't PAID, jfm AND i think that
he's making the case that they'd like to maybe try
to keep him. Around they brought Back Malcolm, roach they
Gave Zach allen an. EXTENSION i, mean they're they're keeping their,
guys which is what good teams. Do we talked About Detroit, lions,
right it's what good teams. Do you, draft you develop
the free. Agents if they do, pop you keep them

(23:21):
if you, can for. Example SO i don't feel disappointment
for the rookie. CLASS i know there's Some broncos fans
that had high, expectations and that's.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
The word that we sort of started the segment with his.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
Expectations my expectations were relatively, low and you're one for
all of them because of what was ahead of bar
even because of woman, ahead might we hire For?

Speaker 4 (23:42):
Baron?

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Okay well, again when's he gonna who's he gonna beat?

Speaker 3 (23:46):
OUT i thought he'd be the starting. Nickelback, okay but
Then Jay kwan's been. Phenomenal he's, yeah since training. Camp, Yeah,
baron the competition made McMillan. BETTER i agree with, you
no doubt about.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
SO i guess may when he drafted there was, Like,
okay well that's the. Guy but Then Jay kwan was,
like not, Yet i'm still.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
Here you remember there was some saying that That baron
might even Beat Riley.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Moss there, was, yeah but then that was that was
not really taken into. ACCOUNT i think a lot of
the ways that they brought him, in AND i still
think that there's some. Options Zach siegers AND i were
talking about it before the. Show there's some there's some
options With Jaday. Baron that's the reason why he's here
Right he he can be and he probably will eventually
be your starting, nickel and there's a lot more value
to that in the league. Now those guys are getting

(24:36):
drafted pretty. High And Devin weatherspoon out there with With
seattle is a guy that.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
Was drafted pretty.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
High McDuffie with The chiefs is a guy that could
kind of plays. Position there are two first rounders right
there that had the ability to play inside and, out
and that's WHAT i always view As Jade. Baron it's, Like,
okay a guy that could play inside a. Out so
a lot of The broncos fans out there that were, like,
Well Joday barron now needs to be your first round
pick in there as a. Starter with that passer tends down,

(25:03):
well the coaching staff may, say, no, no we want
to keep him.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
In the role that he's, doing which is the tight
end e.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
Racer and he did that this last week at a
very high level Against Shake, ferguson who might be the
best tight end in football right.

Speaker 4 (25:14):
NOW i don't think he even had a catch in the, game.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Not one if one target and guess what happened with
that target. Interception there you.

Speaker 3 (25:21):
Go i'm looking forward to watching More Jade. Baron this
is his opportunity right. Now his time has. Come i'm
looking forward to watching him more Than chris Abram, strain
just because of the potential first round draft. Pick go
back to after they drafted, him all the Things Sean
payton said about. Him Sean payton loves, him and that's

(25:42):
WHY i THINK i was expecting. MORE i thought he'd
beat McMillan. OUT i really. Did AND i like, McMillan
and so we're going to get a chance to see
what he can. Do AND i think this could be
good for. Him and you know a texter said from
the nine, Seven, Oh payton doesn't play rookies much early.

Speaker 4 (25:59):
On very.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
True he LIKES. VJ pj doesn't do it.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
Either AND i saw something this. Week you probably saw
it because you see.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Everything.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
Uh they broke down the oldest teams in the.

Speaker 4 (26:10):
League based on the starters of the.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Team broncos were like the third or fourth oldest team
in THE, nfl which shocked me BECAUSE i look at
this team as being a kind of a, young up
and coming. Team but the starters are all older, guys
but they do have a really, good nice young core
of talented first, second thirty year. PLAYERS i think. Agreed

(26:35):
you want to listen to. Smilights oh, yeah we're doing.

Speaker 4 (26:38):
That, yeah all, RIGHT i.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
LOVE i love.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
This all.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Right we eight in THE.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Nfl we're gonna start with the very very impressive young
Quarterback Drake bay and Those New England. Patriots works from
the left hash of the thirty thirty.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Nine he takes the sack of staffs back to.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Throw he loads up a long d left of down.

Speaker 5 (26:53):
Pill we.

Speaker 2 (27:01):

Speaker 4 (27:02):
Freddy, yeah you love these.

Speaker 1 (27:05):

Speaker 3 (27:11):
To it's, hard, Though it's really hard when you're really, excited,
man AND i have.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
To really hold.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Back that Is bob soci and H this guy's ola
like ninety five The Sports Hub patriots radio network on the.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Call there, Listen Drake may has been.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Sensational two hundred eighty two passing, yard three. Touchdowns browns
are a legit defense and they just punked them thirty two.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
Thirteen patriots are.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
Legit Drake may better than you expected this.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Year, SEE i was always A Drake may, guy SO
i expected a step. FORWARD i Thought josh McDaniels was
probably the right. Guy, well AND i don't Like josh,
McDaniels But i'm saying he's the right guy to Develop Drake.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
May, yeah so you can sort of separate those.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
Rights not a very good, person but a really good
offensive mind and coach and not a head. Coach all
things are being true, true and and he fits really
really nicely. There so, YEAH i think they're. LEGIT i
think that they might win that, division which, again nobody
saw that in The Bills division for so.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Long but the interesting, part let's get to The. Eagles

something really dumb in his press conferences and, then, oh
by the, way throw it for four touchdowns in a
route over The. Falcons Now Kirk cousins makes the return

favorites in this. Game forty four to ten for The.

Speaker 4 (32:24):

pronounced his. Name one of the very few former players
