Speaker 1 (00:01):
Cheers. Kristin Balboni and Sharon Thorst love it with your
sideline pass.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
That's right, it's sideline pass with your sideline reporters, Kristen
and Sharon Sharon, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Sunday's win over the Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
The walk off game winner by NFC Special Teams Player
of the Week Ryan Fitzgerald. What a game, What an
atmosphere for the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I tell you, it's unbelievable to be undefeated at home
this season, especially against a team that had the most
prolific offense in the NFL, to being able to go
toe to toe with them and pull this off at
the end, especially with the rookie with that kind of
a pressure packed kick to win the game. I mean,
it was absolutely incredible and just absolutely thrilling to send
(00:53):
the Cowboys and all their fans for Macro America Stadium
home packing with an l.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Yeah, as you said, they That's what you said last
week is that the Cowboys fans crawl out of all
sorts of places, and you know, as we said, they
traveled well, But I tell you what, that stadium sounded
so good. It sounded good every single home game. Sharon
and I know you were on the on the sideline
for the last week. It's just amazing. It's amazing to see,
(01:19):
especially for the Falcons game, when this team started ow
into this home crowd, those players just really I remember
Dave Canal saying to me, they need it. These young
guys need it, and they just they appreciate it so much.
And then you get into these, you know, third down
situations where the opponent is is trying to convert a
third down and this crowd really makes a difference, and
(01:40):
it's just so wonderful to see and to hear, and
certainly can hear it on our broadcasts.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Oh absolutely, I know. Like you said, the players love it.
Tommy Tremble has talked about that. A lot of guys
have said, what it What difference it makes to have
the fans behind you like that, especially when you know
in years past it you know, a team like the
Cowboys would take over the.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Stadium and that is not happening now.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
And it's so awesome to see and that that fan
I mean, they truly are you know that twelveth man,
and especially in a game that came down to the
wire like that one on Sunday and they made a
big difference and the players, certainly, I know, appreciate it
as well as like you said, Dave Canalis.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So, speaking of Tommy Tremble, he said something to the
median and it was on the Panthers' instagram where he said,
now we go into every game expecting to win.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
That's just the we've seen it done. We've seen it.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
They've won three of the last four and Sharon I
was just talking to Trey Boston. We were just doing
our TV show and we were talking about home versus
Road zero and three on the road three and oh
at home, but he said, we need to focus on
more of that. They've won three of the last four,
and I think that's what Tommy Tremble was saying. Trey said,
the road thing is a little overblown, he said, of course.
And then I talked to Dave Canalis as well. He said,
(02:47):
we don't really talk about it. He said, as a coach,
I'm trying to look at meeting times. I'm trying to
look at how we're you know, is everyone getting hydrated enough?
We are we doing setting up the recovery stations as well?
How's the plane ride? He said, But in terms of playing,
you know, it's not something that we're focused on that
we're talking about.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
And I thought that was.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Really interesting what Trey said was that that can sometimes
be a narrative that's a little overblown. So what I
want to know from you is what have you seen
on the sidelines being in this road atmosphere?
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Have you noticed anything different home versus road?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
You know what, I think, I don't think that there
is so much like they've all been saying. I don't
think it's so much that you're in this intimidating environment
who you're on the road. I think what's happened to
them this season on the road, they've fallen behind early
and big, you know, against Jacksonville, against Arizona, and then
against the Patriots. They had early game turnovers that really
(03:40):
they dug a big hole from themselves and it's harder
to come back from that. I don't think it's so
much like, oh, they're going on the road and they
don't know how to play football anymore again.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Or something like that.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I just think it's been circumstantial this year more than
anything else, because they certainly warm up the same, they
look the same, they had the same you know, pumped
up attitude when they come out there spell almost even
more so when you're on the road, because you've got that,
you know, the crowd booing you in, trying to take
you out of your game kind of thing. So I
think it's just been more that they dug themselves a
hole early in all three of those matchups that were
(04:09):
hard to car your way back from, and they certainly tried,
I mean Arizona, they almost pulled it off. So it's
just been more I think of that situation than being like, oh,
we don't know how to play on the.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Road or something like that.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I know they want to go out and prove it
that they can win on the right, and you certainly
have a good opportunity this week.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
But I tell you what, you know, the Jets might
be h to six, but you.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Can't write them off just quite yeah, especially when you
got Steve Wooks over there running that defense. And certainly
if any crowd can try to take you out of
a game, it'll.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Be those two yard fans, no kidding.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah, See, we don't subscribe to, as we were saying,
necessarily the home versus road. But those those Jets fans,
they are they're Jets fans. We all know what they're like,
and of course this team is and we'll talk about
it a little bit later in your scouting report, but
this team is. They're an NFL team, and any NFL
team on any Sunday can beat another NFL team, and
certainly the Panther's no that and are you know keeping
(05:01):
an eye out. They don't want to be the first
team to be beaten by the Jets, and the Jets
are hungry for a win.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
There's no doubt about it. So let's talk about how
the Panthers got it done.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Rico Dudel Sharon, Oh my gosh, you know, we both
had a chance that we know we watch them on
the sidelines and watch them in these games, and what
he is doing in terms of being physical, finding these holes,
breaking a tackle when he needs to, and just I wondered,
I'll be honest, I wondered, could he replicate what he
had done against Miami, because he almost broke records for
(05:36):
the Panthers. He's tied for second all time in terms
of rushing yards single game rushing yards, and so you
just go, oh my gosh, you get two hundred yards
a game, like what an incredible game. You know, you
probably see him over one hundred and this one and
then he breaks the Panthers record for yards from scrimmage,
I mean in two hundred and thirty nine in that game.
And what he is doing right now is special.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Oh, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I did my pregame interview with him last week and
he was so ready to go out and prove to
Dallas what they let go. You know, he wanted to
really go out there and have a good game. Again
said but more so than that, he said, I just
want to go out and win, and however I can
contribute to help this team do it.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
That's that's what his mission was.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
But coach Canally says that he runs violently and that
is such a perfect way to describe him, because he's
not going to bounce around and try and get around
the corner, you know, get around the guy. He runs
right over you and he's just and to me, it
seems like he just gathers steam as the game goes on.
It's like a ball rolling stone rolling down a hill.
You know, the more he gets going, the faster he gets,
(06:45):
the better he gets. He just really gets into a
rhythm and just starts rolling over people. And he is
running incredibly well right now and is so confident. You
can feel it and you can see it out there
with him. It seems like when he touches the ball,
he knows he's going to make something happen. And he's
doing that, and I think that the entire offense just
gains confidence from that.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
The O line just they're all just clicking so well
together right now.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
It's just their chemistry and their unspoken communication. They're they're
all playing really well together right now, and Rico is
certainly the one driving the bus when it comes to
this offense.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
He's just doing incredible things now. Well, he has two
hundred yards a game for the rest season, of course
not I'm assuming that's not going to happen. It'd be
great if it did. But the way he's running right now,
it's special, as you said, and he's got a lot
of confidence. This offense has a lot of confidence. And
when you could run the ball like that, that just
opens up so much for Bryce Shang and the rest
of the offense. And it takes a lot of pressure
off of Bryce, I think too, to try to feel
(07:40):
like he has to make something happen. When you got
the run game moving like that, it just really takes
the pressure off everybody else.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And you brought up such a good point about the
offensive line when you look at this, and I know
that fans know this, but just a reminder, they're down
three starters and the right guard position is now seeing
there Briddy Christensen is the third starting right guard and
to look at you know, from from center to the
whole right side is our backups. And to see what
(08:07):
they're doing with the guy who was on the roster
as the backup running back is just incredible. And you know,
you have to give so much credit to Dan Morgan
and this entire front office for really shoring up all
of those things in order to be able to thrive,
like not just hold the pieces together until some of
these starters come back, but to be able to thrive
(08:28):
in that environment and to have some of the Panthers'
best games. And then I also wanted to bring up
what you just talked about with Bryce, something that I
have noticed and that we've talked about a little bit
this week is that fourth downs, those huge fourth downs
that he has had. Sharon, going back into the Cardinals game,
you had that one. It was fourth and sixteen and
they needed it for that comeback. It was to bryceon Tremaine.
(08:51):
And then you look last week there was there was
one that one to Jimmy Horn junior. You know, you're going,
these are young guys and these are make or break plays.
There was oneed Toal McMillan in the first half where
they were down seventeen to nothing to the Dolphins, and
you go, these are not just fourth downs, but fourth
downs that they desperately need, you know. The one to
(09:11):
like I said, the one to tet a Road was
to get something going last week against the Dolphins, because
if you don't make that, you know, then you give
them the ball back and you're down seventeen to nothing.
Jimmy Horn was to get the go ahead get down
there by the goal line hunter Renfro last week.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
That was that was a dark I'm just oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
It was just that it was an incredibly thrown ball
and again to get into field goal range. And that
is something that Bryce. I don't know that if we
if we've looked at it, or if we've appreciated what
he is doing this season on these huge fourth downs
and he's stepping up in the pocket or he's evading pressure,
and what a what a way in which he has grown.
(09:49):
And that takes a lot of guts, and it takes
a lot of confidence, and the timing has to be perfect.
But that is something that you know, you just really
enjoy watching.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Yeah, and now, like he said, he's year ago, maybe
this doesn't happen. I think it started towards the end
of the season with that confidence. But to be able
to bounce back the way he has this season, I mean,
he's had some untimely turnovers in the early season and
to be able to just shrug that off, move on
to the next play, and then to have that poise
under pressure, like you're saying, when you have to have
(10:19):
that fourth down, he's been able to convert. I think
that's something that clearly that's what the Panthers loved about
him coming out of Alabama. He did that all the
time at Alabama, and I almost think he almost thrives
better in that type of environment when he can do
a little freelancing and you know, roll out of the
pocket and just create something and say hey, you get
over there and I'm I'm gonna find you I mean,
he just he really seems to do well in those situations,
(10:42):
almost more than the scripted kind of stuff. So he's
it's fun to watch him be able to do that
and to make things happen. And because, like you said,
I mean, to make those kind of throws take takes
a lot of everything, guts, some poison and luck and
a lot of stuff, and he's done so many of
them now already this sea, and I think you just
continue to build off of that confidence to add that
(11:04):
to his arsenal to know, hey, I did that, and
I've not only done it once, I've done it three
or four times already. So as the season progresses and
as his career progresses, he's going to be able to
lean on that and have that confidence going into similar
situations in the future. So it's been awesome and just
to see this team grow in general, how they have
(11:24):
this season, to come out from that first game in
Jacksonville where all heads were all spinning, going one on Earth.
We didn't think this was going to happen, and to
get to where they are now, I mean, man, it's
just been it's been awesome to watch in all phases
of the game, but particularly Bryce in this offense. To
see them start to really click and start moving the
football and scoring some points to outscore the.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Top end offense in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
I mean, that's just that's saying a lot about how
far they have come in a short period of time
this season.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
We're only six games in.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Absolutely, I agree with everything that you said. All right,
let's take a look at the injury report. There's some
updates that we've got. So Chub Hubbard's still you know,
as of right now, still day to day with that.
CAF will see how this plays out through the week
of practice. Although as we said, the Panthers are in
very good hands while he is out. The window has
opened on center Austin Corbett. Just a reminder for everyone
(12:11):
when someone is on ir then they what they do
is they open this window twenty one days for them
to start practicing, and they have twenty one days to
activate them to the roster. So we don't think Sharon
and I were just talking about this, we don't think
that we'll see him this week, especially with Cape May's
doing so well. Typically it takes guys, you know, once
that window is open, it takes them a while. But
good progress there for something that looks like a really
nasty injury at the beginning of the year. It's always
(12:33):
great to see guys working their way back. And then
Sharon Jalen Coker is in his second week of that
twenty one day window and he, you know, he didn't
get to play a game. He's been on ire to
start the season, got injured right before the season started.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Do you think we'll see him this week.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
I think we have a very good chance of seeing
him this week.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
He was very close last week, Dave Cana said, and
he said earlier this week on Monday, that he's so
so close to being able to get out there. They're
going to ramp up his work again this week throughout
practice just to make sure that he's able to do
everything they need him to do for an entire game
and not just come in or, you know, for a
handful of plays here and there. They want him to
be able to come out from start to finish and
(13:12):
to be able to go one hundred percent. And he
said it last week, He's like, I am ready to go.
I am ready to play. So I would be surprised
if he did not play this week. So it'd be
great to see him out there to add yet another
threat in that offense and to see him pairing up
with Team mag is going to be a lot of
fun because that's something we've all been waiting for all
season long. So that and talk about something to give
(13:34):
some defenses some trouble. You get him out there as well,
it's going to be it's going to be a big
step up and a big leg up, I think for
this Panthers offense to have him out there as well.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
And it'll be an interesting it'll be interesting to see
what the Panthers do with the receivers, who's up and
who's down because as we know, even without Adam Thielen,
you know, that's what we came in talking about was
was at the start of the season, this depth and
so now we'll see, you know, because of course special
teams comes into play with some of those some of
those guys you know that are kind of toward the
(14:04):
end of the roster, like you'r Bryson Tremaine. He plays
special teams, does a great job there. So we'll see
kind of who gets the because someone that we've been
seeing a lot of will not be up on Sunday.
If Jalen Cooker is there, so we'll see. And very
interesting what you said about they want him to play
the whole game, not just come in for I mean
because yeah, because one of those spots you know, you
need to be able to contribute the entire game. But
(14:25):
looking forward to seeing him play. He was one of
my favorite players to watch last season. I know he's
itching to get back out there, all right, Chare and
we talked about it a little bit. Jets winless so
far on this season. They're dealing with some injuries, but
I just, like I said, you can just never count
out any NFL team, especially a team as hungry as this.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
You can't. And now we know it's hard to go.
It's really hard to go undefeated in an NFL season. It's
pretty hard to go win less too. Yeah, it does.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
Doesn't always happen. And last week though, they looked just
incredibly bad of it. It had eighty two yards of total offense.
Oh you know, it's just it's pretty brutal. I'm twenty
eighth in the NFL in total offense, dead last in passing,
only one hundred and forty four passing yards per game.
First year under their new head coach of course Aaron Glenn,
(15:11):
former lines defensive coordinator, and they are just not getting
much done anywhere on the football field except in the
running game. They do have a really good running attack,
so that's the one thing that they are able to
do with Breis Hall, so I think that you'll see
them doing that the most. And then of course you've
got Justin Fields, a quarterback this year who we are
(15:32):
familiar with from his time in Chicago and then also
last year with the Steelers, and he can run. He
is a very good and dangerous quarterback with the ball
in terms of running, just not been so great passing
this year. And then their star receiver Garrett Wilson out
right now. He injured his knee in that game last
week against the Broncos. He's out for at least a
couple of weeks. I don't think it's season ending, but
(15:54):
he is definitely gonna Oh. So they really don't have
I don't think many people would recognize the names they
have in that receiver room except Allen was ard veteran guy.
But other than that, they don't have a lot of
big names that receive. Got some young guys at tight end,
so I would I would expect them to run the
ball as much as possibly, even the Panthers have done
such a fabulous stop of shutting down the run, so
it's going to be interesting to.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
See what they do. And then defense of the Jets.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Have long been known for their solid, solid defenses and
have a very familiar face, of course, with their defensive coordinator,
Steve Wilkes, who was our defensive coordinator for years and
in two separate occasions as well as interim head coach
for a few games. So he's running that defense and
he has no slouch and he's got some really talented
guys there. They've just been struggling this season as well,
(16:40):
have not been able to get a lot done on
the defensive side of the ball. But you know, you
got Sauce Gardner back there in that secondary, you got
Quinn Williams upfront on that D line. So they've got
guys who can get it done. And I'm sure Steve
Wilkes would love nothing more than to try to shut
down this Panthers offense this week, So you can't count
them out even though they are zero to six.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yeah, we love Steve in this building and he's got
a ton of good relationships, but of course there's history
there and anytime you're facing your former team, as Rico
Dwell knows well, you.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Want to show up.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
But a great opportunity for the Panthers to get their
first win on the season, and more importantly, as we said,
to continue this winning streak, you know, go above five hundred,
win three games in a row, and it would just
be it would be great to see. So Sharon, thank
you so much. As always, safe travels up to New
York or New Jersey, I should say.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
And can't wait to talk to you next week.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Absolutely sounds great. Thanks.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Kristin all right here now on sideline pass with Ryan Fitzgerald.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Ryan game winner on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Congratulations, What does that feel like when you win it
for your team?
Speaker 6 (17:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:46):
It felt great.
Speaker 6 (17:46):
I mean defense had a quick three and out and
offense drove it right down the field and gave me
a chip shot.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
So it was great.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
And then one thing that people may or may not
have noticed, but certainly what we were aware of in
the broadcast me on the sideline is the win. And
like on one way you're going with the wind, you
got the win in your back. The other way, the
way in which you kick the final field goal, you're
going against the wind. I did like five or six
reports on like what the wind. You know, it's gusty
over here, it's coming out of this direction. How much
(18:13):
of your job is being a meteorologist?
Speaker 6 (18:16):
Yeah? I think just you know, looking a week out
day before on my phone what it's saying the wind's
gonna be like. And then obviously when I get out
on the field on game day and and warm up,
seeing what it's doing to the ball and which way
it's blowing and it can change throughout the game.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
And so yeah, do you have a favorite weather app? Use?
Get you like a sponsorship for that?
Speaker 2 (18:41):
This is what NFL kickers use, which is during a game,
what do you do? Like I noticed you went out
during the two minute warning yesterday, I think, and you
were checking like how things were going. I mean, how
do you like in your brain how long have you
been computing weather to know, Okay, the wind feels different now,
so I have to adjust this many degrees or whatever
it is.
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Yeah, I mean you don't want to adjust too much.
You don't want a second guess. You want to trust
yourself what your warm up was like, and never never
second guess yourself. But if you notice, me and Sam
will go out, you know, during all the TV timeouts
and just get a feel for what it's doing heading
into that drive.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I always think kicker has got to be one of
the hardest positions. I mean, I think everyone says that
kicker's got to be one of the hardest positions. You
said something to the media after the game that you
were so pumped for the opportunity to is that I
would be terrified. Are you going out there in these
high pressure situations like so Jazz that you get this
opportunity to win it?
Speaker 6 (19:37):
Yeah, there's a lot of excitement. I mean as a
kicker that's what you want. Yeah, as a kicker growing up,
you're not like, oh, I want to stay away from
the moment. Oh I hope, hope we don't get in
filgal range. No, I want the kick. I want the
opportunity because that's what my job is to do. So
I was just so excited, and sometimes that excitement can
be a little too much. So I gotta, you know,
now get too pumped up and hyped up for the moment.
(19:59):
Just got to stay cool and do my job.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Okay, So, what does an excited Ryan Fitzgerald look like
a too excited Ryan Fitzgerald on the sidelines.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
I was gonna say, you don't look like you're you're
you know, overly hyped.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
You're not like, you know, pinting yourself in the face
or no, nothing like that. How did you develop whatever
mental process works for you as a kicker?
Speaker 6 (20:18):
Trial and error? You know, I've been kicking since I
was like ten years old, been playing football since eighth grade,
and you know, kick three years in high school, kicks
six years at FSU and playing at FSU and big
time moments, big time games. It really prepares you for
to take the step for a place like this, to
play here in this environment. And so I think just
trial and error, year after years, seeing what works, what doesn't,
(20:40):
and improving that.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Speaking of the mental component, did we see on Instagram that.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
You're a golfer?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I am, Yeah, okay, we'll talk.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
About mental and mental you know, things that really require
a lot of mental fortitude.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
How good of a golfer are you right now?
Speaker 6 (20:54):
I think I'm like a seven handicaps.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Oh so you're like a real real golfer. I'm good enough.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
When athletes say they're good enough at something that means
they're really, really good.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
What are some of your favorite courses?
Speaker 6 (21:07):
I have played at TPC Piper Glenn here in Charlotte,
played at Skybrook a lot. Finding new courses and trying
to experience them when I can. Obviously in the season
it's a little bit difficult, but in the off season.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
I grew up in Pinehurst, so I'm a partial.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I'm terrible golfer, but I'm partial to anyone talking about golf.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Do you watch golf?
Speaker 6 (21:27):
Yeah, I watch a lot of golf.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
Who's your favorite golfer.
Speaker 6 (21:29):
I'd have to say Scottie first, because of his faith
and Jesus and I love that about him, and just
his competitive nature and if you notice, he doesn't get
too fired up or caught up in the moment. He
does a good job of maintaining his emotions and just
sticking to his process for each shot.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Very similar between the two of you.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Like you said, I love too that He's like, yeah,
like when his kid was born, was that the Masters
and he was like, this is a great feeling, but
it lasts for a second, and then the important stuff
is the stuff that happens off the field, which is
a great perspective.
Speaker 6 (21:58):
Yeah, my identity isn't in football at the end of
the day. And that's something Scotti has said all the time.
His identity isn't in golf. It's in his firm belief
in Jesus Christ and everything. And that kind of takes
a step back and you say, Okay, this isn't that
important in the big scheme of things. Obviously, this is
my job and I want to do well at it.
But when you have a bigger purpose in life.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
You said that you know that you started what kicking
at the age of ten? Did you play any other
positions or any other sports growing up?
Speaker 6 (22:25):
I played soccer and baseball growing up, and I punted.
No actual positions in football, But.
Speaker 5 (22:31):
How did you know? Okay, punter versus kicker.
Speaker 6 (22:35):
I was a better kicker than I was a punner,
so I went with that. And it's more fun to
score points. Yeah, no offense, but.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
Yeah, so you get a little bit more of the glory.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Last question, what is your favorite kick that you've ever
had from the time you started to now?
Speaker 6 (22:52):
I mean it's hard not to say the game winner yesterday.
I mean, that's definitely up there. I mean, I've had
a lot of important kicks in the stadium. We won
the AEC championship year in twenty twenty three and had
three fill goals in that game. I mean, I love
kicking at the stadium. It's ironic that I'm here playing here.
So yeah, yesterday definitely is up there with my favorite.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That's awesome, new memories made. We're lucky that you like
kicking here at Bank of America Stadium. Is going very
well for the Panthers. Ryan, congratulations again and thanks You're fatify.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Thank you
Cheers. Kristin Balboni and Sharon Thorst love it with your
sideline pass.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
That's right, it's sideline pass with your sideline reporters, Kristen
and Sharon Sharon, Oh my goodness.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Sunday's win over the Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
The walk off game winner by NFC Special Teams Player
of the Week Ryan Fitzgerald. What a game, What an
atmosphere for the Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
I tell you, it's unbelievable to be undefeated at home
this season, especially against a team that had the most
prolific offense in the NFL, to being able to go
toe to toe with them and pull this off at
the end, especially with the rookie with that kind of
a pressure packed kick to win the game. I mean,
it was absolutely incredible and just absolutely thrilling to send
(00:53):
the Cowboys and all their fans for Macro America Stadium
home packing with an l.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Yeah, as you said, they That's what you said last
week is that the Cowboys fans crawl out of all
sorts of places, and you know, as we said, they
traveled well, But I tell you what, that stadium sounded
so good. It sounded good every single home game. Sharon
and I know you were on the on the sideline
for the last week. It's just amazing. It's amazing to see,
(01:19):
especially for the Falcons game, when this team started ow
into this home crowd, those players just really I remember
Dave Canal saying to me, they need it. These young
guys need it, and they just they appreciate it so much.
And then you get into these, you know, third down
situations where the opponent is is trying to convert a
third down and this crowd really makes a difference, and
(01:40):
it's just so wonderful to see and to hear, and
certainly can hear it on our broadcasts.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Oh absolutely, I know. Like you said, the players love it.
Tommy Tremble has talked about that. A lot of guys
have said, what it What difference it makes to have
the fans behind you like that, especially when you know
in years past it you know, a team like the
Cowboys would take over the.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Stadium and that is not happening now.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
And it's so awesome to see and that that fan
I mean, they truly are you know that twelveth man,
and especially in a game that came down to the
wire like that one on Sunday and they made a
big difference and the players, certainly, I know, appreciate it
as well as like you said, Dave Canalis.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So, speaking of Tommy Tremble, he said something to the
median and it was on the Panthers' instagram where he said,
now we go into every game expecting to win.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
That's just the we've seen it done. We've seen it.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
They've won three of the last four and Sharon I
was just talking to Trey Boston. We were just doing
our TV show and we were talking about home versus
Road zero and three on the road three and oh
at home, but he said, we need to focus on
more of that. They've won three of the last four,
and I think that's what Tommy Tremble was saying. Trey said,
the road thing is a little overblown, he said, of course.
And then I talked to Dave Canalis as well. He said,
(02:47):
we don't really talk about it. He said, as a coach,
I'm trying to look at meeting times. I'm trying to
look at how we're you know, is everyone getting hydrated enough?
We are we doing setting up the recovery stations as well?
How's the plane ride? He said, But in terms of playing,
you know, it's not something that we're focused on that
we're talking about.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
And I thought that was.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Really interesting what Trey said was that that can sometimes
be a narrative that's a little overblown. So what I
want to know from you is what have you seen
on the sidelines being in this road atmosphere?
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Have you noticed anything different home versus road?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
You know what, I think, I don't think that there
is so much like they've all been saying. I don't
think it's so much that you're in this intimidating environment
who you're on the road. I think what's happened to
them this season on the road, they've fallen behind early
and big, you know, against Jacksonville, against Arizona, and then
against the Patriots. They had early game turnovers that really
(03:40):
they dug a big hole from themselves and it's harder
to come back from that. I don't think it's so
much like, oh, they're going on the road and they
don't know how to play football anymore again.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Or something like that.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
I just think it's been circumstantial this year more than
anything else, because they certainly warm up the same, they
look the same, they had the same you know, pumped
up attitude when they come out there spell almost even
more so when you're on the road, because you've got that,
you know, the crowd booing you in, trying to take
you out of your game kind of thing. So I
think it's just been more that they dug themselves a
hole early in all three of those matchups that were
(04:09):
hard to car your way back from, and they certainly tried,
I mean Arizona, they almost pulled it off. So it's
just been more I think of that situation than being like, oh,
we don't know how to play on the.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Road or something like that.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I know they want to go out and prove it
that they can win on the right, and you certainly
have a good opportunity this week.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
But I tell you what, you know, the Jets might
be h to six, but you.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Can't write them off just quite yeah, especially when you
got Steve Wooks over there running that defense. And certainly
if any crowd can try to take you out of
a game, it'll.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Be those two yard fans, no kidding.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Yeah, See, we don't subscribe to, as we were saying,
necessarily the home versus road. But those those Jets fans,
they are they're Jets fans. We all know what they're like,
and of course this team is and we'll talk about
it a little bit later in your scouting report, but
this team is. They're an NFL team, and any NFL
team on any Sunday can beat another NFL team, and
certainly the Panther's no that and are you know keeping
(05:01):
an eye out. They don't want to be the first
team to be beaten by the Jets, and the Jets
are hungry for a win.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
There's no doubt about it. So let's talk about how
the Panthers got it done.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Rico Dudel Sharon, Oh my gosh, you know, we both
had a chance that we know we watch them on
the sidelines and watch them in these games, and what
he is doing in terms of being physical, finding these holes,
breaking a tackle when he needs to, and just I wondered,
I'll be honest, I wondered, could he replicate what he
had done against Miami, because he almost broke records for
(05:36):
the Panthers. He's tied for second all time in terms
of rushing yards single game rushing yards, and so you
just go, oh my gosh, you get two hundred yards
a game, like what an incredible game. You know, you
probably see him over one hundred and this one and
then he breaks the Panthers record for yards from scrimmage,
I mean in two hundred and thirty nine in that game.
And what he is doing right now is special.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Oh, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I did my pregame interview with him last week and
he was so ready to go out and prove to
Dallas what they let go. You know, he wanted to
really go out there and have a good game. Again
said but more so than that, he said, I just
want to go out and win, and however I can
contribute to help this team do it.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
That's that's what his mission was.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
But coach Canally says that he runs violently and that
is such a perfect way to describe him, because he's
not going to bounce around and try and get around
the corner, you know, get around the guy. He runs
right over you and he's just and to me, it
seems like he just gathers steam as the game goes on.
It's like a ball rolling stone rolling down a hill.
You know, the more he gets going, the faster he gets,
(06:45):
the better he gets. He just really gets into a
rhythm and just starts rolling over people. And he is
running incredibly well right now and is so confident. You
can feel it and you can see it out there
with him. It seems like when he touches the ball,
he knows he's going to make something happen. And he's
doing that, and I think that the entire offense just
gains confidence from that.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
The O line just they're all just clicking so well
together right now.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
It's just their chemistry and their unspoken communication. They're they're
all playing really well together right now, and Rico is
certainly the one driving the bus when it comes to
this offense.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Right now.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
He's just doing incredible things now. Well, he has two
hundred yards a game for the rest season, of course
not I'm assuming that's not going to happen. It'd be
great if it did. But the way he's running right now,
it's special, as you said, and he's got a lot
of confidence. This offense has a lot of confidence. And
when you could run the ball like that, that just
opens up so much for Bryce Shang and the rest
of the offense. And it takes a lot of pressure
off of Bryce, I think too, to try to feel
(07:40):
like he has to make something happen. When you got
the run game moving like that, it just really takes
the pressure off everybody else.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And you brought up such a good point about the
offensive line when you look at this, and I know
that fans know this, but just a reminder, they're down
three starters and the right guard position is now seeing
there Briddy Christensen is the third starting right guard and
to look at you know, from from center to the
whole right side is our backups. And to see what
(08:07):
they're doing with the guy who was on the roster
as the backup running back is just incredible. And you know,
you have to give so much credit to Dan Morgan
and this entire front office for really shoring up all
of those things in order to be able to thrive,
like not just hold the pieces together until some of
these starters come back, but to be able to thrive
(08:28):
in that environment and to have some of the Panthers'
best games. And then I also wanted to bring up
what you just talked about with Bryce, something that I
have noticed and that we've talked about a little bit
this week is that fourth downs, those huge fourth downs
that he has had. Sharon, going back into the Cardinals game,
you had that one. It was fourth and sixteen and
they needed it for that comeback. It was to bryceon Tremaine.
(08:51):
And then you look last week there was there was
one that one to Jimmy Horn junior. You know, you're going,
these are young guys and these are make or break plays.
There was oneed Toal McMillan in the first half where
they were down seventeen to nothing to the Dolphins, and
you go, these are not just fourth downs, but fourth
downs that they desperately need, you know. The one to
(09:11):
like I said, the one to tet a Road was
to get something going last week against the Dolphins, because
if you don't make that, you know, then you give
them the ball back and you're down seventeen to nothing.
Jimmy Horn was to get the go ahead get down
there by the goal line hunter Renfro last week.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
That was that was a dark I'm just oh my gosh.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
It was just that it was an incredibly thrown ball
and again to get into field goal range. And that
is something that Bryce. I don't know that if we
if we've looked at it, or if we've appreciated what
he is doing this season on these huge fourth downs
and he's stepping up in the pocket or he's evading pressure,
and what a what a way in which he has grown.
(09:49):
And that takes a lot of guts, and it takes
a lot of confidence, and the timing has to be perfect.
But that is something that you know, you just really
enjoy watching.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Yeah, and now, like he said, he's year ago, maybe
this doesn't happen. I think it started towards the end
of the season with that confidence. But to be able
to bounce back the way he has this season, I mean,
he's had some untimely turnovers in the early season and
to be able to just shrug that off, move on
to the next play, and then to have that poise
under pressure, like you're saying, when you have to have
(10:19):
that fourth down, he's been able to convert. I think
that's something that clearly that's what the Panthers loved about
him coming out of Alabama. He did that all the
time at Alabama, and I almost think he almost thrives
better in that type of environment when he can do
a little freelancing and you know, roll out of the
pocket and just create something and say hey, you get
over there and I'm I'm gonna find you I mean,
he just he really seems to do well in those situations,
(10:42):
almost more than the scripted kind of stuff. So he's
it's fun to watch him be able to do that
and to make things happen. And because, like you said,
I mean, to make those kind of throws take takes
a lot of everything, guts, some poison and luck and
a lot of stuff, and he's done so many of
them now already this sea, and I think you just
continue to build off of that confidence to add that
(11:04):
to his arsenal to know, hey, I did that, and
I've not only done it once, I've done it three
or four times already. So as the season progresses and
as his career progresses, he's going to be able to
lean on that and have that confidence going into similar
situations in the future. So it's been awesome and just
to see this team grow in general, how they have
(11:24):
this season, to come out from that first game in
Jacksonville where all heads were all spinning, going one on Earth.
We didn't think this was going to happen, and to
get to where they are now, I mean, man, it's
just been it's been awesome to watch in all phases
of the game, but particularly Bryce in this offense. To
see them start to really click and start moving the
football and scoring some points to outscore the.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
Top end offense in the NFL.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
I mean, that's just that's saying a lot about how
far they have come in a short period of time
this season.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
We're only six games in.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Absolutely, I agree with everything that you said. All right,
let's take a look at the injury report. There's some
updates that we've got. So Chub Hubbard's still you know,
as of right now, still day to day with that.
CAF will see how this plays out through the week
of practice. Although as we said, the Panthers are in
very good hands while he is out. The window has
opened on center Austin Corbett. Just a reminder for everyone
(12:11):
when someone is on ir then they what they do
is they open this window twenty one days for them
to start practicing, and they have twenty one days to
activate them to the roster. So we don't think Sharon
and I were just talking about this, we don't think
that we'll see him this week, especially with Cape May's
doing so well. Typically it takes guys, you know, once
that window is open, it takes them a while. But
good progress there for something that looks like a really
nasty injury at the beginning of the year. It's always
(12:33):
great to see guys working their way back. And then
Sharon Jalen Coker is in his second week of that
twenty one day window and he, you know, he didn't
get to play a game. He's been on ire to
start the season, got injured right before the season started.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Do you think we'll see him this week.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
I think we have a very good chance of seeing
him this week.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
He was very close last week, Dave Cana said, and
he said earlier this week on Monday, that he's so
so close to being able to get out there. They're
going to ramp up his work again this week throughout
practice just to make sure that he's able to do
everything they need him to do for an entire game
and not just come in or, you know, for a
handful of plays here and there. They want him to
be able to come out from start to finish and
(13:12):
to be able to go one hundred percent. And he
said it last week, He's like, I am ready to go.
I am ready to play. So I would be surprised
if he did not play this week. So it'd be
great to see him out there to add yet another
threat in that offense and to see him pairing up
with Team mag is going to be a lot of
fun because that's something we've all been waiting for all
season long. So that and talk about something to give
(13:34):
some defenses some trouble. You get him out there as well,
it's going to be it's going to be a big
step up and a big leg up, I think for
this Panthers offense to have him out there as well.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
And it'll be an interesting it'll be interesting to see
what the Panthers do with the receivers, who's up and
who's down because as we know, even without Adam Thielen,
you know, that's what we came in talking about was
was at the start of the season, this depth and
so now we'll see, you know, because of course special
teams comes into play with some of those some of
those guys you know that are kind of toward the
(14:04):
end of the roster, like you'r Bryson Tremaine. He plays
special teams, does a great job there. So we'll see
kind of who gets the because someone that we've been
seeing a lot of will not be up on Sunday.
If Jalen Cooker is there, so we'll see. And very
interesting what you said about they want him to play
the whole game, not just come in for I mean
because yeah, because one of those spots you know, you
need to be able to contribute the entire game. But
(14:25):
looking forward to seeing him play. He was one of
my favorite players to watch last season. I know he's
itching to get back out there, all right, Chare and
we talked about it a little bit. Jets winless so
far on this season. They're dealing with some injuries, but
I just, like I said, you can just never count
out any NFL team, especially a team as hungry as this.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
You can't. And now we know it's hard to go.
It's really hard to go undefeated in an NFL season. It's
pretty hard to go win less too. Yeah, it does.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
Doesn't always happen. And last week though, they looked just
incredibly bad of it. It had eighty two yards of total offense.
Oh you know, it's just it's pretty brutal. I'm twenty
eighth in the NFL in total offense, dead last in passing,
only one hundred and forty four passing yards per game.
First year under their new head coach of course Aaron Glenn,
(15:11):
former lines defensive coordinator, and they are just not getting
much done anywhere on the football field except in the
running game. They do have a really good running attack,
so that's the one thing that they are able to
do with Breis Hall, so I think that you'll see
them doing that the most. And then of course you've
got Justin Fields, a quarterback this year who we are
(15:32):
familiar with from his time in Chicago and then also
last year with the Steelers, and he can run. He
is a very good and dangerous quarterback with the ball
in terms of running, just not been so great passing
this year. And then their star receiver Garrett Wilson out
right now. He injured his knee in that game last
week against the Broncos. He's out for at least a
couple of weeks. I don't think it's season ending, but
(15:54):
he is definitely gonna Oh. So they really don't have
I don't think many people would recognize the names they
have in that receiver room except Allen was ard veteran guy.
But other than that, they don't have a lot of
big names that receive. Got some young guys at tight end,
so I would I would expect them to run the
ball as much as possibly, even the Panthers have done
such a fabulous stop of shutting down the run, so
it's going to be interesting to.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
See what they do. And then defense of the Jets.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
Have long been known for their solid, solid defenses and
have a very familiar face, of course, with their defensive coordinator,
Steve Wilkes, who was our defensive coordinator for years and
in two separate occasions as well as interim head coach
for a few games. So he's running that defense and
he has no slouch and he's got some really talented
guys there. They've just been struggling this season as well,
(16:40):
have not been able to get a lot done on
the defensive side of the ball. But you know, you
got Sauce Gardner back there in that secondary, you got
Quinn Williams upfront on that D line. So they've got
guys who can get it done. And I'm sure Steve
Wilkes would love nothing more than to try to shut
down this Panthers offense this week, So you can't count
them out even though they are zero to six.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yeah, we love Steve in this building and he's got
a ton of good relationships, but of course there's history
there and anytime you're facing your former team, as Rico
Dwell knows well, you.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Want to show up.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
But a great opportunity for the Panthers to get their
first win on the season, and more importantly, as we said,
to continue this winning streak, you know, go above five hundred,
win three games in a row, and it would just
be it would be great to see. So Sharon, thank
you so much. As always, safe travels up to New
York or New Jersey, I should say.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
And can't wait to talk to you next week.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Absolutely sounds great. Thanks.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Kristin all right here now on sideline pass with Ryan Fitzgerald.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Ryan game winner on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Congratulations, What does that feel like when you win it
for your team?
Speaker 6 (17:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:46):
It felt great.
Speaker 6 (17:46):
I mean defense had a quick three and out and
offense drove it right down the field and gave me
a chip shot.
Speaker 5 (17:51):
So it was great.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
And then one thing that people may or may not
have noticed, but certainly what we were aware of in
the broadcast me on the sideline is the win. And
like on one way you're going with the wind, you
got the win in your back. The other way, the
way in which you kick the final field goal, you're
going against the wind. I did like five or six
reports on like what the wind. You know, it's gusty
over here, it's coming out of this direction. How much
(18:13):
of your job is being a meteorologist?
Speaker 6 (18:16):
Yeah? I think just you know, looking a week out
day before on my phone what it's saying the wind's
gonna be like. And then obviously when I get out
on the field on game day and and warm up,
seeing what it's doing to the ball and which way
it's blowing and it can change throughout the game.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
And so yeah, do you have a favorite weather app? Use?
Get you like a sponsorship for that?
Speaker 2 (18:41):
This is what NFL kickers use, which is during a game,
what do you do? Like I noticed you went out
during the two minute warning yesterday, I think, and you
were checking like how things were going. I mean, how
do you like in your brain how long have you
been computing weather to know, Okay, the wind feels different now,
so I have to adjust this many degrees or whatever
it is.
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Yeah, I mean you don't want to adjust too much.
You don't want a second guess. You want to trust
yourself what your warm up was like, and never never
second guess yourself. But if you notice, me and Sam
will go out, you know, during all the TV timeouts
and just get a feel for what it's doing heading
into that drive.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I always think kicker has got to be one of
the hardest positions. I mean, I think everyone says that
kicker's got to be one of the hardest positions. You
said something to the media after the game that you
were so pumped for the opportunity to is that I
would be terrified. Are you going out there in these
high pressure situations like so Jazz that you get this
opportunity to win it?
Speaker 6 (19:37):
Yeah, there's a lot of excitement. I mean as a
kicker that's what you want. Yeah, as a kicker growing up,
you're not like, oh, I want to stay away from
the moment. Oh I hope, hope we don't get in
filgal range. No, I want the kick. I want the
opportunity because that's what my job is to do. So
I was just so excited, and sometimes that excitement can
be a little too much. So I gotta, you know,
now get too pumped up and hyped up for the moment.
(19:59):
Just got to stay cool and do my job.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Okay, So, what does an excited Ryan Fitzgerald look like
a too excited Ryan Fitzgerald on the sidelines.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
I was gonna say, you don't look like you're you're
you know, overly hyped.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
You're not like, you know, pinting yourself in the face
or no, nothing like that. How did you develop whatever
mental process works for you as a kicker?
Speaker 6 (20:18):
Trial and error? You know, I've been kicking since I
was like ten years old, been playing football since eighth grade,
and you know, kick three years in high school, kicks
six years at FSU and playing at FSU and big
time moments, big time games. It really prepares you for
to take the step for a place like this, to
play here in this environment. And so I think just
trial and error, year after years, seeing what works, what doesn't,
(20:40):
and improving that.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Speaking of the mental component, did we see on Instagram that.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
You're a golfer?
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I am, Yeah, okay, we'll talk.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
About mental and mental you know, things that really require
a lot of mental fortitude.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
How good of a golfer are you right now?
Speaker 6 (20:54):
I think I'm like a seven handicaps.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Oh so you're like a real real golfer. I'm good enough.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
When athletes say they're good enough at something that means
they're really, really good.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
What are some of your favorite courses?
Speaker 6 (21:07):
I have played at TPC Piper Glenn here in Charlotte,
played at Skybrook a lot. Finding new courses and trying
to experience them when I can. Obviously in the season
it's a little bit difficult, but in the off season.
Speaker 5 (21:19):
I grew up in Pinehurst, so I'm a partial.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I'm terrible golfer, but I'm partial to anyone talking about golf.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Do you watch golf?
Speaker 6 (21:27):
Yeah, I watch a lot of golf.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
Who's your favorite golfer.
Speaker 6 (21:29):
I'd have to say Scottie first, because of his faith
and Jesus and I love that about him, and just
his competitive nature and if you notice, he doesn't get
too fired up or caught up in the moment. He
does a good job of maintaining his emotions and just
sticking to his process for each shot.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Very similar between the two of you.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Like you said, I love too that He's like, yeah,
like when his kid was born, was that the Masters
and he was like, this is a great feeling, but
it lasts for a second, and then the important stuff
is the stuff that happens off the field, which is
a great perspective.
Speaker 6 (21:58):
Yeah, my identity isn't in football at the end of
the day. And that's something Scotti has said all the time.
His identity isn't in golf. It's in his firm belief
in Jesus Christ and everything. And that kind of takes
a step back and you say, Okay, this isn't that
important in the big scheme of things. Obviously, this is
my job and I want to do well at it.
But when you have a bigger purpose in life.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
You said that you know that you started what kicking
at the age of ten? Did you play any other
positions or any other sports growing up?
Speaker 6 (22:25):
I played soccer and baseball growing up, and I punted.
No actual positions in football, But.
Speaker 5 (22:31):
How did you know? Okay, punter versus kicker.
Speaker 6 (22:35):
I was a better kicker than I was a punner,
so I went with that. And it's more fun to
score points. Yeah, no offense, but.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
Yeah, so you get a little bit more of the glory.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
Last question, what is your favorite kick that you've ever
had from the time you started to now?
Speaker 6 (22:52):
I mean it's hard not to say the game winner yesterday.
I mean, that's definitely up there. I mean, I've had
a lot of important kicks in the stadium. We won
the AEC championship year in twenty twenty three and had
three fill goals in that game. I mean, I love
kicking at the stadium. It's ironic that I'm here playing here.
So yeah, yesterday definitely is up there with my favorite.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
That's awesome, new memories made. We're lucky that you like
kicking here at Bank of America Stadium. Is going very
well for the Panthers. Ryan, congratulations again and thanks You're fatify.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Thank you
