Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Columbus Hastings and Dmac on demand. Listen to
PhD Live every weekday from noon to three on Altitudes
Sports Radio ninety two five and on the Altitude Sports
Radio App.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
I think when teams scrimmage a lot of times they'll
mix it up with ones on twoes, and but I
thought we'd yesterday, particularly with the physical practice, We've done
a good job of working with each other, still staying
off the ground and not getting you know, past the
(00:38):
point where it becomes, you know, more of a health risk.
And I thought they did a good job practice in yesterday.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Training camp coverage on Altitude Sports Radio powered by Ramos Law,
the official injury law firm partner of Broncos Country. Today,
Drake Greenlaw went off the field, but Sean Payton downplayed
that they're in shells today. Shawn's We're gonna scrimmage scrimmage
format on Saturday. What were your other big takeaways from
(01:06):
from today?
Speaker 4 (01:08):
I didn't have any huge takeaways, to be totally honest
with you. It was a slow practice. They were they
were in shells. Uh. The tempo was way down, the
energy was way down, which you it's it's human nature, man.
You go three straight days of pads. You take those
pads off, you feel like you're on vacation when you
go out there with shells on. So that's what it
(01:29):
looked like to me. You know, there were a couple
of good moments there were the Bownicks had a strong
finish to practice, which was good to see. He's now
done that a couple of days in a row. Patser
Tan should have had an interception off bow necks at
one point, but you know, for the most part, it
was a it was a watered down practice.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Scott.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
There was a couple wide or players. What's our number
five guy that they came over, Chirfield Schurefield. I think
he could be more than just a special team guys.
I think a lot of people had him pencil in
and just a special team guy. You know.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
The reason why he'll make it into base packages Scott
is well. First off, he's just way better than any
of us expected him to be. And he's been this
year's Vley And by the way, Veley hasn't done anything.
Speaker 5 (02:17):
He was out though yesterday, right he didn't.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
Yeah, yeah, he was. He was back today though, Right.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
He's been some time for sure, But he's this year's
Vley where just every practice he's popping to you. Uh
So he's better than what we expected as a wide receiver,
but he's gonna make it into base packages because he's
such a good run blocker that he could be utilized
very well and play action as well.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
And we said it earlier. Pat Bryant made the catch
the day, one of them at least with coverage right
with somebody on him, probably twenty five yard throw both yeah,
I you know, and Andy and he's kind of pulling
my attention goes. And I talked to Legy about it too.
He said, listen, he doesn't have top speed, but he's
got it, he said. He said to Day, to me
(02:58):
an elite like little move to get separation. Problem is
he doesn't have the speed to keep the separation. So
he said he's gonna be the kind of guy that
that when he gets open, boom, you got game the rock,
which I said, great, So third down situations, go, red
zone situations. He might be the guy, but he's got grippers.
(03:20):
He made this catch look easy that wasn't easy. And
he put two hands upon it, and I mean it
was like he was squeezing life out of it.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
What does the first scrimmage sort of thing, move the ball,
that sort of thing. How does that change things in
training camp? That's what they're gonna do on Saturday.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Well, I don't think it changes anything other than it
just puts you in a lot of situational football, which
which is good from a coach's perspective. It's really good
from a quarterback perspective because it makes you think, you know,
you'll you'll do you'll do a backed up period, you'll
do you'll probably do a goal line period, you'll you'll
you'll do a sudden change period after turnovers where you
(03:59):
know you're gonna take a shot down the field. So
it puts you into situational football, which that's how you
win and lose football games is do you know how
to handle the different situations and it's different snap counts
that you want to utilize. And we heard Sean talking
about that a little bit today. He talked it was
interesting to hear that because I mentioned yesterday that I
did not like the snap counts yesterday. Okay, and they
(04:21):
were indeed working on new snapcounts. That's what Sean said
after practice. So, uh, the guys were not in rhythm
with it yet, but you do use different snap counts
and different situations of the football field.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
What do you think the point was to work on
a different type of snapcounts.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
We're gonna be in third down and they're gonna send
people at us, and we want to get a first
down or two calling people off side.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
So on third down in particular, you're usually not going
on two very often, but you'll use a dummy count,
so that means like you'll go through the full cadence. Hey,
set ut white Eightie White Adi said, hut all right, easy, easy.
You give a couple of checks, you talk to wide receivers,
you reset it, said U White White eighty and now
we're going right. Rather than a hard count, which is
(05:04):
on two when you're trying to get them to jump
off sides on third down more times than not, what
you're trying to do is give your quarterback time to
process the coverage see if they're gonna disguise anything or
reveal anything.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
All right, so Saturday should be kind of fun. Who
will get an opportunity on Saturday that really hasn't had
much of an opportunity right now? Who won't we get
a better idea about come Saturday.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
I don't know, well, all your backups, I'm sure they're
gonna still have first team offense, second team offense, but
it's gonna be scrimmage. If you're gonna let them scrimmage live,
you're gonna get a lot more consistent snaps from the
second unit, won't.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
You second unit?
Speaker 5 (05:47):
Probably?
Speaker 4 (05:48):
If anything, though, I would actually think that you're gonna
get less reps for those guys.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Isn't an advantage for the offense though that it's not
quite as predictable as things have.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Been depends on how situational it is. Yeah, I mean,
if if you go first and ten, we're going to
move the ball, that's your favorite period of practice has
an offense because now you're going unscripted. The defense doesn't
know what you're doing. Things literally don't have it. There's
a piece of paper by the way that the defensive
coaches have that's got the offensive play call on it.
So when you talk about scripted, it's literally scripted. They
(06:16):
know exactly what's coming and you don't have that. But
the rest of the situations know that now the defense
still knows the situation that you're in.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I would think maybe running backs. Maybe you're allowed to
tackle running backs right, No, you're not. No, but if
you give them a certain sort of you know, no
shoulder of thumb, they're gonna go down.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Well, I guess, but I mean, anytime something's on the ground,
you're gonna hear about fifteen coaches yelling get off the ground.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
So we won't see any really live tackling in the
Saturday scrimmage.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
I'd be shocked if we see live tackling. Ever.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Okay, so we wait till bump and grind. Usually there's
a guy gets thudded or thumbs always happens.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
There's always somebody that will hit too hard. The Joy
Green Law yesterday with JK. Dobbins something like that. But no, they're.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
Listen.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Dave Campbell was the one Psycho that was going full tackled.
The Cleveland Browns went full tackled yesterday and that was
a big story because Kevin Stefanski has never done that
over the course of his career. So you never know.
But I would be very very surprised if as progressive
as Sean Payton has been an injury prevention, if we
get a full tackling period. I'd be shocked.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
The Cleveland Browns are really interesting. They're letting like people
shoot video and report on them and do all sorts
of things. They are like a big open book out
there to.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Get into the community and create interest.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
They it looks like that's that's probably what's going on.
Like we'll give you as much access as we can.
I saw a cool thing about Joe Flacco the other day,
you know, I actually, you know, it's funny when I
seen video of Joe just being like a normal dude.
He seems like a cool guy, you know, And he
was talking about like the question was, how many can
(08:02):
you name your ten playoff wins? Can you name the
ten quarterbacks that you beat? And he beat Brady twice,
and he goes through, uh, you know, beat Peyton Manning
obviously he and he goes through the guy and he
was stuck on a dude. He couldn't remember who he
beat with the Texans. He calls his dad and his
dad goes, oh, yeats. He was like, oh yeah, thanks dad.
And then there's just moments with Joe that I'm like,
(08:23):
maybe Joe is a little bit of a mentor out
there or a good backup sort of guy, like a
good guy to have around Kyle. Kyle Orton was I
don't know, do you have any relationship with Kyle Orton?
Do you like Kyle? Did I like Kyle a lot?
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Yeah, Kyle, you don't.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
No, it's not that I actually did like Kyle. He
wasn't like Cutler. He was just you didn't like Kyle.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
No, I mean what do you asking? Are you asking me?
Was he the best quarterback of the world?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
No, no, no, no, no no. I thought Kyle came here
at a ridiculous, impossible time.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
With Tebo, Well, I would agree with Kyle was like
a plumber, like like he he was in with the line.
He was just a dude's dude. He I mean, he
was about as cool of a cucumber as you're gonna get. Yeah. Actually,
with well, now we're talking about different things.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I don't know how much passion he had for football
that but but but on the same vein, it was
hard to analyze that because the TBO stuff with Kyle
was ridiculous. I don't know if I've ever seen another
pro athlete have to deal with the crap that he
had to deal with when he was so much better
(09:32):
of a player than Tim Tebow. It was kind of ridiculous.
But they weren't good with Kyle. They they was kind
of lousy.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
And he would say it too though. I mean, he
had some kind of outbursts of saying we suck.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
And it was I don't know if anything is standing
out at camp as obvious as how bad Tim Tebow
was the thrower of the football compared to the other
quarterbacks in camp. I don't know if I've ever seen
anything as obvious as that in my life.
Speaker 5 (10:02):
The problem was you traded Cutler, which I think the
fans kind of liked, right, you know, And and did
he have some boathhead games? Absolutely? Did he do some
stupid things, absolutely, but there's never a question about as talent.
And then you bring in Vanilla Ice in here with
Kyle Lurden, and you're like, really.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
If you want to go through some of the dumbest
moves in NFL history, this guy for that guy. And
what happened afterwards, the firing of Mike Shanahan, to hire
Josh McDaniels, to get rid of Jay Cutler for Matt
Cassel or whatever happened to eventually bring in Kyle Orton
had to be one of the dumb to draft Tim
(10:41):
Tebow had to be in terms of domination.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
To move up to get Tim Tebow.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
It had to be one of the dumbest things of
all time from one guy to another.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Tyle, Oh, you guys are forgetting some along the way though.
I mean, we had the youngest, most talented offense in
the NFL. It was it wasn't even a question. We
got rid of Brandon Marshall, the wide receiver. We got
rid of Tony Scheffler, we got rid of Jay Cutler.
I mean, the list just went on and on.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
For McDaniels, because of McDaniel, because.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
Of McDaniels, and and then Josh gets rid of Jay,
and he's got a team meeting and he says, don't worry, boys,
I could turn a high school quarterback into it all pro.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
The Morning Show is talking about you today. It was
pretty funny. Oh yeah, yeah, because they were ripping on McDaniels.
They were just saying, like, which is unbelievable because if
it wasn't for the Patriots, there's no way Josh would
have another job, I don't think. But they said the
funniest thing is whenever we tee you up just to
have you talk about Josh McDaniels.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
Period.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
It gets me going pretty quick. Blood fresher starts rising,
the tc PTSD starts coming back.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Didn't they get rid of Color to Chicago for Wharton?
Because yeah, I don't know where the back Castle think.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
That's who Josh wanted to bring here. And he basically
told Cutler. I mean, there was this whole confrontation. It
was all ridiculous. He couldn't get it done. He wanted
to bring Castle here, he couldn't get it done. And
he while he was doing that, he ostracized Cutler, which
(12:17):
was the stupidest thing you could have ever done, because
he didn't have the Castle deal done. And it was
insanely stupid because Cutler it was really done. They should
never have fired Mike. Firing Mike who had drafted Jay
and had roomed him to a certain degree to where okay,
(12:37):
maybe now after what we've done, this will be the
right time. We spent the right time together, and then
you just blow it all up, like after you spend
all the time doing what you should do with the
first round guy.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Now, the one guy that Josh didn't have a choice,
but to trade was Brandon Marshall. Well, yeah, brand had
definitely forced his way out of town on that would
when that when that the ball up? Yes, Yes, it
was the wildest thing I've ever seen in my life.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Weren't you right?
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Brandon and I were literal lockermates. We're we're very good friends.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
I love Brandon. He I know him in a way
a lot of people do not.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
And he did not know anything about his mental health
at that period. And I've given him a lot of excuses,
but he really did evolve and and and he did
a lot of cool things later in life with mental
health and all that. Right, Uh, but he did not
have it figured out at this point. And but that
that day, that week was the wildest thing I've ever seen.
It started out kind of innocent, right, It started started
(13:42):
out with things like ball gets thrown his way. Uh,
I just don't put any effort in. Right, next time
the ball comes his way, you know what, I'm actually
gonna swat that thing like I'm playing defensive basketball. I'm
just gonna swat that sucker down. You know what. Actually,
the third time after I swat that thing, I'm gonna
go pick up that ball. And then I'm gonna punt
the ball onto Peoria. I'm gonna punt it over the
(14:04):
wall onto Peoria. And and this went on for days.
I mean for days, this is going on, and they're
playing this game of chicken, him and Josh McDaniels and
and listen, I mean, the dude starts doing that, you
don't have a choice but to get rid of him.
At that point was what did practice? We well, we
were all just laughing, and you know what we were
(14:25):
really doing. We were really saying, hell, yeah, that's what
we're really doing. Like, if you're being honest, and you
guys started six and that year, I understand, and and
we were prepared Scott in that training camp was a
grind and there's a reason why we came out good
because we were working harder than anybody else. And there's
a reason why the wheels fell off because our leg's
broken half and we had nothing left in the tank.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
Right.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Uh. But but if we're really being honest, nobody was
mad at Brandon. Nobody was because McDaniels was such a tool.
Yeah yeah, I mean there's so many Josh McDaniels stories.
Brandon stokely might have been the one guy that was
bad at.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Him, at Brandon Marshall.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Yeah, yeah, well I just remember I shouldn't say it
like that. I just remember Brandon doing a lot to
try to mentor him and called he was really trying
to cal him the situation down.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Well, Stokely had one of the most famous moments of
all time. After Marshall scores a touchdown, He's about to
whip out a white glove and a black glove to
show unity. Stokely there stop like during a game, like,
stop the celebration, like he knew what was about to
go on, because it probably would have been some sort
of penalty. That was a wild time, bro That was
that was That was crazy. That was a wild time.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Brandon used to always talk to me about his his
pre planned touchdown celebrations and one that he was super
proud of.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
He was like, Hey, this week, I'm putting a sharpie
in my in my sock. I'm like, what do you
mean you're putting? Why are you putting sharpie in your sock?
Because after I score, I'm gonna sign the football and
I'm gonna throw it in the stance.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
What do you think?
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Actually, that's a pretty cool idea.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
I think I'm glad Brandon. Can you believe he never
went to the playoffs ever?
Speaker 5 (16:02):
No, for that long of.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
A career he played fifteen years, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Can I just tell you this?
Speaker 3 (16:09):
And I don't believe.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I'm not saying he's the best wide receiver in Broncots history.
I'm not saying that he is the most talented wide
receiver in Broncos.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
He was unreal his size, speed, strength, it was We
think a lot of that like that with Courtland. Brandon
Marshall was better than Courtland.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
So he was bigger, he was taller, he was faster,
he was he was all of it.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
And you think of Damarus he was you know, you
might be right. Talent wise, Brandon Marshall made, talent wise
be the best receiver the Broncos I've ever had. Yeah,
there's really nobody like him. We do have some breaking
baseball news. That is the trade deadline. The Rockies have
made a trade another one. They traded Tyler Kinley yesterday.
We didn't even mention it.
Speaker 5 (16:54):
Way, how's a big man doing in New York?
Speaker 3 (16:55):
He's killing it. He had a walk off in the
eleventh inning last night. A cof it. He's hitting three
sixty three, his ops is nine to twenty seven. He
is killing it, and he's playing great defensively. There was
a commentator because the shortstop there has been struggling, and
they said, can Ryan McMahon just take care of the
entire left side of the infield. He's doing great. The
(17:17):
Rockies figured out how to trade Jake Bird to the Yankees,
and I do not know what they got for him.
I know they got a minor leaguer, this kid, Aiden Smith,
not even kid, he's twenty six. He had Tommy Johnny's
a lifer, minor leaguer who probably will never be in
the majors at the salary. Dumb that was to the
Braves Tyler Kinley yesterday. Jake Bird now goes to the Yankees.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
They hit a whole run on the first trade with
the Yankees. The Yankees feeling, aren't they?
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Ummm yeah? I mean it's probably a good depth piece
for the Yankees. Jake Bird a good depth piece for
the Braves, but they're not nearly not going anywhere. The Rockies
are receiving the Yankees number ten and number twenty eight
ranked prospects. Left hand pitcher Ben Shields and second basement
Rock Riggio. That's an awesome name. Ben Shields and Rock Ridge.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
What was the one whose last name was Shields? What
was his first name? Is that relations it.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Steve Shields, Iron Shields.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
When there are Shields. That was a great pitcher for
a bunch of years.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
I'm maybe, yes, don't know. So the Rockies are collecting
all these minor leaguers, pitchers, support players. They are trading
the guys they should trade, so, believe it or not,
this is a good deal for the Rockies. And I
can't believe they got anything for Tyler Kinley. So that's
the latest. And Graves with the Rockies who were a
three hit yesterday in a five nothing lost to Cleveland.
(18:47):
All right, let's football go comes up next. Thank you
Mountain High Appliance dot com. That's Mountain High Plans dot com.
Camp has been good for one thing. Talk about eating
donut holes. That's inspired by I.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
Mean, I'm just proud to be out of the closet
with my donut eating, unlike you two.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
You know, Okay, yeah, I definitely keep it in the closet.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
Anything else you want to get out of there with.
That's it.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Let's Footbaul go Dan Buds, Quinn stannerd Is.
Speaker 6 (19:13):
Let's hear from Sean Payton from today, guys. So new
rule on the kickoff this year. Last year it went
out on touchbacks, it went out to the thirty This
year it's moving to the thirty five yard line if
it's a touch back on the kickoffs. Here's Sean Payton's
thoughts on the ball moving to the thirty five.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Yeah, I think I was in favor of the thirty
five and because I think there were teams still taking
the approach we'll defend the thirty yard line as a
start point the kickoffs and the play itself and the
returns spike way up regardless. Yeah, I think that. You know,
it's it's hard as a coach to say I'm comfortable
with them starting on the thirty five yard line.
Speaker 5 (19:51):
You know I'm gonna I won't.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I'm gonna want to defend that field position. And I
think that benefits us based on our talent our returners
are coaching. You know, we feel like we'll benefit from that,
and we're all a little bit smarter or more experienced
relative to how those returns begin to look from this
(20:12):
time last year.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
Do you guys like that it's going out to the
thirty five? What do you think of Sean Payton's comments there?
Speaker 3 (20:18):
I mean I do because I thought last year we
were going to see more of those like line drive
kickoffs to make things kind of squirrely, because there's no
reason to not do that because other than if it
goes out bounds and it goes to the forty, well,
now that's just a five yard difference. I mean, when
you take a chance that you you know, get a
return or you tackle them inside of the twenty. I
(20:41):
hope it does make things more interesting Tyler, because right
now it's just just well, I have.
Speaker 4 (20:46):
No idea if the returns are going to be more interesting.
I still hate it. It's just it's still awkward to
look at it. It's just ugly. It's the whole thing
is just ugly.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
It's stupid.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
But I will say it is going to prevent teams
from from doing touchbacks, that's for sure. I mean, listen,
thirty five yard line, that's no joke. The forty yard
line is definitely no joke. Teams are not gonna want
teams to start on the thirty five yard line.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
I think it's gonna press teams to kick that saucer
line drive kick like right down the middle of the
field and then just you know, try to converge on
that and tackle the guy inside of the twenty or
something like that.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
I think it will force more returns. Now, you'll see
what happens if it lands past of twenty. But then
it happens to roll into the end zone. That ain't
put enough to the thirty five, right, no, no, no.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
No, oh, for like a like a touch, like a
like you kneel down on the ball.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
Actually, that's a good question. I don't know. I don't
know the answer to that, Scott.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
I don't know that either, because in theory.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
The team, the returning team could still take a knee, right,
I don't know, risky play though, which that might that
might discourage the line drives.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Yeah, I mean just to let the ball go. I mean,
what if it doesn't make it into the end zone
then that is a live ball.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
Well yeah, but I mean if the lands on the
I don't know, say the ten. Yeah, you just see
what the hell is going to happen. I don't know, man,
that that is an interesting loophole though.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Right, I mean what I mean. I mean, take the
chance and we can get it on the forty.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
This is all the same kickoffs. By the way, can
you now do like an onside kick whenever you want
as long as you're trailing, you just have to announce
it right and you do. You still have to be
trailing in the game. Yes, are we just killing ourselves
on this? Can we ever let go of kickoffs?
Speaker 5 (22:41):
So then let me assist teams letting it go into
the end zone. Hits on the ten. Now it's dribble
and dribble, dribble. Let it go so you can get
the four kicking team recovers it to one. They're bald.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
They didn't, Yeah, they didn't.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
They didn't declare on side, kick, didn't declare lotside.
Speaker 4 (23:00):
That's different.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
They got a whole thing about the landing zone, and
you gotta it's got.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
To live football the second that ball is live.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
But it it's got to make it to the landing
zone area because if it's you know, if it doesn't,
it's a dead ball. If you don't get it in
the air to the landing zone.
Speaker 5 (23:16):
Area, can't you punt?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
The whole thing's kind of ridiculous.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
What's that can you not punt it as a kickoff
or do you have to kick it off?
Speaker 4 (23:23):
You have to kick it, save only on a safety.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
You know you can fair catch a kickoff.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
How long you've been watching football?
Speaker 5 (23:34):
How long they've been having these stupid ass rules.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
It's trust me. I don't I don't blame you for
not understanding everything.
Speaker 5 (23:40):
Well, I'm just trying to save kickoffs. Just don't make
a kickoff. Make it a punt.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Fine by me. It's fourth and fifteen at your own
twenty five yard line.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Go.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Most teams will punt.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
I don't hate that idea, but make it a pun
that way. I mean you can control you got these
guys are better at controlling distance and kickers.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
I don't know. I think you'd I think you'd get
more fair catch. Is that anything with that?
Speaker 5 (24:01):
Well? Good fair catch at the twenty you say, you
say fifteen yards?
Speaker 3 (24:05):
We would killing ourselves trying to figure out how to
make this thing better. But the thing to make it better.
If we're working this hard to make the stupid kickoffs better,
you know what you do this You get rid of
the kickoffs.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
Put it back to normal kick position.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
Just have guys got concussions and kill themselves twelve.
Speaker 5 (24:21):
With the same rules.
Speaker 3 (24:23):
What do you mean it's normal with the same rules.
What does that mean?
Speaker 5 (24:26):
You have the guys on the forties whatever kick it. Yeah,
if the ball goes in the end zone, they get
it back at the forty. But if not, now we
got to run.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
But there's there's other elements here, like the whole safety
thing was the big motivator of this thing in the
first place.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
I got to answer your question. If if it lands
in the landing zone and rolls into the n zone
and they take a knee, if it's touch back right there,
it is different in that scenario the team takes the
ball in the twenty yard line.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Oh, so that's what you want to do. You want
to take to dribble in, get to the end zone,
but hit into the zones zone.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
They are trying to encourage teams to return the stupid
football that by hooker by Crooks. So Tyler's right, if
it lands at the five and scoots in and you
they want you to take it back. They're telling you, like,
you don't have a big advantage here, take it back,
and they're and they're saying, way to go, team, you
kick the ball, not in the end zone. Do whatever
(25:24):
you want to do, but do not kick that ball
in the end zone.
Speaker 5 (25:27):
This is so hard. I'm still surprised they haven't tried
to develop a big athletic tackle or tied end to
kick kick off.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Well, Kansas City did that last year with the safety.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Right, it's not a bad idea because they want they
don't want you to kick it.
Speaker 5 (25:43):
Through the y kicks it eighty yar.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
So all you need is to kick it to the
landing zone.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Yeah, like the thirty five yard I have my earphones
out by the way. All you want is thirty five yards.
You're kind of right.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
If you have like a linebacker, like somebody could thud,
who can all she's kicked. You only have to kick
the ball like thirty yards in the air.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
This, yeah, he's good. Out in the sixties or seventies
where they had to kick a big, big old dude
kicking off and just run out trying to kill people.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
If you had somebody who could saucer kick the ball
thirty five yards in the air, whatever it is, you'd
be you'd be in good shape. We'll see if anybody, Oh,
these are just gonna be kicking in the end zone
starting at the thirty five next story, Dan, all.
Speaker 6 (26:27):
Right, here's bon Nicks on NFL Network yesterday talking about
his new weapons on offense.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
They just add, you know, a spark and Evan, you know,
like you said, he he's gonna add a dynamic to
the tight end room that we didn't necessarily have. The
two running backs got some juice. They're gonna be really
good on the field. And then just overall we were
able to.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Get better within a year.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
We didn't lose anybody, so the other guys were allowed
to just grow and develop in our scheme. And you know,
it's nice playing with the same guys each year.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
So of the new weapons, we'll count the two rookies
in here as well, Evan Ingram, Pap JK. Dobbins and
r J.
Speaker 5 (27:02):
Harvey.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Who of those four do you guys think will have
the biggest impact on offense for.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
The Broncos this season.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
It'd be really cool if it was r J. Harvey,
that would be awesome, and I think it probably will
be r J.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Harvey.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Early on, it's probably having Ingram, and then by the
time you get later into the season and hopefully RJ.
Harvey is taken over as the primary running back, and
that would be the way it's designed to be. I
think you hope that Dobbins and Harvey have outstanding, stellar
first years. Yeah, And for the record, I got no
issue with JK. Dobbins holding onto the starting role all
(27:36):
season long. I mean he's a good running back.
Speaker 5 (27:38):
Jay catch he made he made a nice diving catch.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
And did you know JK Dobbins have that kind of personality.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
I didn't know anything about him.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
No, No, I didn't either. How's r J. Harvey? Is
he just kind of keeping his mouth shut for the
most part. Can you tell or are there any rookies
that are having any kind of lip out there?
Speaker 5 (27:55):
No? You know what e'lse say about r J. Harvey?
And Tyler pointed this out. Who's and he had another
run off whatever, Well he had another run today on
the outside that he they're going to try to get
him outside because he has got a fricking motor.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Well turn that quarter and it's his comfort zone. It's
what he's done his entire career. He's been an outside
zone runner.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Well, on Saturday, he they were doing red zone, no pads,
but still and it was an outside thing in the
red zone that on a running play, got in the
end zone, which is doesn't happen all on.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
If he gets the corner, he's going to be a
problem for teams.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
I think he's going to be a problem on We'll
see what they do with him on kickoffs. But dude,
he's he's probably off. Yeah he would. They were having
him take off some kickoffs.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
He ain't returning kicks.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Okay, well, hey, if it's not no longer a pro bowler,
I don't know why you would change that. Would you
change that? Oh no, I mean on on kickoffs, not
on puns.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Yeah, it was pun Snow, that's men's territory all day.
I would I would expect Ah, No, man, I don't
know what they're gonna do on kickoffs. He was r J.
Harvey was amongst like four guys. He looked good, though.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
If you're planning on more returns on kickoffs, a guy
with a little banging his button some speed.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
I mean, you know BIMs does kickoff return also.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
I don't even recall that is was he doing that too?
Speaker 5 (29:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (29:22):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (29:23):
He's your return man.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Okay, listen, whatever you want to do is find he's
a pro Bowl returner. Mims has been great. I'm just
telling you. I saw Harvey look pretty interesting too, and
I know he did that in college as well and
was really effective with it. It is interesting if you can.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I mean, he's got four four speeds, so it's not
an insane thought. And there are definitely a lot of
teams that do take that approach on kickoff that you
want the more stout guy than on punt return.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
It is weird on kickoffs. If you can find that
scene that you know it's it does look like you
can break some kickoffs if you can figure it out,
like because you know you're lying, I don't know. We
should stop talking about kickoffs story Dan.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
Lastly, Lamar Jackson solidified himself as the best running quarterback
last season when he surpassed Michael Vick for the most
career rushing yards at the position. But Ravens head coach
John Harbaugh believes that Lamar Jackson should also rank amongst
the all time greats in throwing the ball. Also, he
says he's a historically great passer. So in Lamar's career
(30:24):
passing the football, he's got a sixty five percent completion
percentage just over twenty thousand passing yards, one hundred and
sixty six passing touchdowns, and only forty nine interceptions with
a one h two passer rating in his seven year
NFL career. Would you guys consider Lamar Jackson on a
(30:45):
trajectory of being an all time great passer of the football.
Speaker 5 (30:52):
With no numbers in front of me? Visually, I'd say no,
But I do think he throws it better than a
lot of people give him credit for.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Oh heck, yeah, I mean, but but he proved that
five years ago. This is not a secret anymore. La
Mark Jackson can play quarterback.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
It's a two time MVP. Yeah, you know, what are
we doing.
Speaker 4 (31:10):
Here running quarter put? But to put him in the
category of all type great passer, No, that's stupid. He's
not an all time great passer yet. The dude can
play quarterback at a really, really good level.
Speaker 3 (31:22):
What are we looking at here? Dan like his numbers?
Speaker 4 (31:28):
He's got one four thousand yard season?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
What is that? Is kind of crazy?
Speaker 4 (31:33):
It's actually a bunch of pretty pedestrian years passing the
ball touchdowns for interception.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
That's that's yeah, that was crazy.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
That was insane and nine and fifteen yards rushing a
bunch of bunch of two thousand yards in there also.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
But Josh Allen won the MVP. Those are bonkers numbers.
What were Allen's numbers compared to that? I don't know
if you can draw that up really quick. Those are
incredible numbers, but you know, I think Burrow had numbers better.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
That is nuts. Forty one touchdowns and four interceptions, that's nuts.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
It's incredible Fasher. I think Burrow though, was kind of similar,
and Alan Alan was was this Alan? Or who we
got here? Who are you doing next? Dan kind of
figures out Josh Allen, Uh what we got? Touchdowns twenty
eight to six thirty seven hundred yards? Way less? Still good,
(32:35):
but they were clown hammering teams too. They were I mean,
he wasn't even playing sometimes. They had such big leads
on teams. He wouldn't He wouldn't even need to play something.
Speaker 5 (32:43):
Now put Burrows up there.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
Burrow was trailing in almost every game. Burrow's numbers are
probably more impressive than both those guys, but again he
kind of had to do it because they just didn't
have as good of a team. So Burrow's numbers are
going to be really impressive. I means numbers probably are
the most impressive. Forty one four is pretty good though,
(33:05):
Oh it's unbelievable, but those numbers from Allen won them.
The MVP completion percentage by Lamar Jackson was better than Alan.
Total yards was better, touchdowns was way more touchdowns. The
interception ratio was way better. Yards rushing if we go
(33:26):
down rushing?
Speaker 5 (33:27):
What man?
Speaker 3 (33:30):
That is crazy? How did Lamar Jackson not win the
MVP last year?
Speaker 5 (33:35):
Well, again, put Joe Burrow's numbers up there. The only
think Joe Burrows doesn't do is run right compared to these.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Two Joe Burrow.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
Five thousand yards.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
All right, Burrows, three.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
Touchdowns, completion seventy one. How did he not win MVP?
Because then he make the playoffs?
Speaker 3 (34:02):
They didn't make the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
I mean, listen, to be fair, it is pretty hard
to pass out MVP to a team that doesn't make
the playoffs. Actually player on a team.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
I agree, and you know, I mean the five thousand yards,
but that they're always losing. I mean they were always
trying to. But look at the completion percentage seventy point six.
That is sick.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
Joe Burrows, He's got three years of over four thousand
yards of over forty five hundred yards and the one
that's in between he only played ten In fact, the
two years that he didn't didn't go four thousand and
played ten games, right.
Speaker 3 (34:38):
And then the better quarterback in the NFC may be
Patrick Mahomes better than all those guys.
Speaker 5 (34:44):
I don't know. I'm again we go back, dari Are
you are you judging on winning and championships and all
that stuff? Only then't he answers, Yes, I test give
me Joe Burrows. Dude, the AFC is sick your just
I test quarterback? Are you taking? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (35:00):
I said it on the first segment of the show today.
I'm not so convinced Joe Burrow. He's just not the
best quarterback in the NFL, just playing in semple. Just
the best.
Speaker 5 (35:11):
Here's Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Yeah, his numbers probably aren't as impressed.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
Not bad, not bad at all. Yeah it's down though, Yeah,
but come on, look at it. But look at what
he's done over the course of his career seven years
of four thousand yards or more.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Oh, it's slammed. He's a dynasty, slam down everything. He's
in the argument for best of all time and.
Speaker 5 (35:36):
Two of those over five thousand, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
Do you think the Bengals can actually get their act
together to really win?
Speaker 5 (35:42):
Though? I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
The organization is so bad.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
Can you just win with a crappy owner? Can you
do it?
Speaker 5 (35:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (35:51):
It's hard.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
But the Chiefs, the Chiefs have kind of crappy owners, right,
they kind of figured it out.
Speaker 5 (35:57):
I mean all of the owners are crabby with they're cheap.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
They well, they're rated like the worst owners in the
NFL by their own team. Their facilities blow. The team
doesn't like They like Andy Reid. They like Andy Reid,
but they don't like the ownership.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Yeah, but the Chiefs haven't had the same issues like
Cincinnati's got a rep for not wanting to pay players. Yes, Cincinnata,
it's an entirely different animal.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
But they got the best quarterback yep, arguably, so, bo
Nix just has to be better than those four guys,
and Justin Herbert and and Treviert Lawrence with Travis Hunter now.
Speaker 5 (36:37):
And Herbert had a down year last year compared to
his first three. He just gotta be better than in. Yeah,
win in a super Bowl, better than the ninety nine
and ninety eight why I'm convinced the back doesn't think
these things through. When he starts talking about Super Bowls,
I'm like, I'm like, do you see these.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Dudes A twenty twenty six? I don't know. The defense
for the Broncos is so good and Bonus, hey, man,
is I think? Well, I don't know. I don't know
Bonux will ever be better than the fifteenth or sixteenth
best quarterback in the league. Seriously, but is that good enough?
Speaker 4 (37:12):
It might?
Speaker 3 (37:13):
Yes, yeah, I mean it.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Definitely ain't good enough for a dynasty, but it's good
enough for a one off.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
It's PhD at nine thanks to Revitalized Health. You can
visit them at revitalized dash health dot com. They'll make
you feel better. Thank you. Revitalized Health. Just talk about
the uh, the watching of practice and how grinding it
can be, and like.
Speaker 4 (37:42):
It's a tough life we live.
Speaker 5 (37:43):
It's not.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
I know it probably sounds like a bunch of babies
complaining about it.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
But plaiting on air is probably not.
Speaker 3 (37:48):
Probably probably not because.
Speaker 4 (37:52):
We gotta go watch football, I know, as we got
thousands of folks lined up to the thousand degrees sun
on those metal bleachers.
Speaker 5 (38:02):
I walked down there with the dad and his two sons.
They were there. Dad looked roasted. He said, yeah, I
got He said, what is too hot up there? But
you can tell he got some son. Then I met
Cameron at a coffee shop this morning. Cameron say, he
lists the show all the time.
Speaker 3 (38:15):
So sad, sad, sad, sportscasters, sad sports tacos.
Speaker 4 (38:23):
Oh, doesn't everybody feel bad for us?
Speaker 3 (38:28):
We're watching football practice.
Speaker 5 (38:33):
You know.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
It's funny because the fans, though you watch those stands style,
they're excited for a while. You you you watched it closely,
even that thins out a little bit. They're always excited
in the beginning, and then they see special teams periods
in there instantly slows down.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
Everybody takes a quick little cat napping that.
Speaker 5 (38:55):
I will say this. I walked out and use the
restroom where the fans are.
Speaker 3 (38:59):
Oh is that where you go? Is that?
Speaker 4 (39:01):
No one's told me no, But so that's where you hit.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
That's where I good spots, you know.
Speaker 5 (39:06):
But I did see right in the middle of practice
about well it is about eleven and there's like eight
people playing bags get a corneral whatever it's called, and
and tons of people shopping, and I'm like, what do
you what.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
Do you guys think is the best thing for fans? Like,
what do you? What do you legitimately say? All right,
you know that was cool. If you saw that as
a fan in training camp.
Speaker 5 (39:36):
I'd say go next year when they have the heel back.
Speaker 4 (39:38):
Yeah, I was honestly about to say that, I don't
think you can pay me money to go this year. Well,
I was gonna say, like the city, I'm not trying
to knock it because the bron could have done the
best they possible.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
They've done a great job.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
You spent a lot of money for a very temporary
thing that's going to be solved next year. Uh, they've
done a great job with it. But I don't think
you could pay me enough money to go sit in
those hot ass bleachers.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
Yeah, that's that's tremendous. I'm talking like a drill or
like you know, a period or or whatever. Like what
what would you consider the most exciting, interesting, entertaining thing
to watch?
Speaker 5 (40:08):
If?
Speaker 4 (40:09):
It probably depends on how educated you are. I mean,
and I don't mean that in a disrespectful way, but
I mean I personally think nine on seven is the
most excited period of practice. U. Now, a lot of
fans probably would find that boring. I don't know, because
there's no passing right right, because there's no passing. But
I mean, do you kidding me? You got an offense
going versus the defense. You got testosterone brewing, you got
I mean, that's what all the trash talk is going down.
(40:30):
I think that's the most fun period of the entire day.
Speaker 5 (40:34):
I can see that. That's good. Now if you want
the passing side of them. Whenever you see one on.
Speaker 3 (40:39):
Ones, I think one ones are pretty cool too.
Speaker 5 (40:41):
I like love one on one, yeah, because you got
a better chance for a big play one way or
the other.
Speaker 3 (40:47):
I mean when you see Courtland Sutton lining up against
patzertan kind of you know, kind of.
Speaker 5 (40:51):
Like our Cortland goes back and doesn't have a catch
and we can see the next guy.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
Well, one on ones are because you know, you know
the ball's coming to both guys or both guys know
you know it's but it's fun, it's competitive.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
One on ones between wide receivers and defensive back is
definitely an offensive drill. One on ones between an old
line d line is definitely a defensive drill.
Speaker 3 (41:15):
Okay, I kind of just like red zone periods in general, but.
Speaker 4 (41:21):
The most but there weren't pads on so.
Speaker 3 (41:24):
Right, that's where things can get a little goofy. We
like a Bonnets threw for like five touchdowns today, Like
all right.
Speaker 4 (41:31):
Well you had twelve attempts from the ten yard.
Speaker 3 (41:33):
Line, right, But I did see I remember a training
camp one time. It was actually pretty remarkable, was with
Russell Wilson. I don't know if you guys remember this,
but it was definitely a period set up for the offense.
We're going from like the ten yard lining in right,
and the defense stopped the offense twelve straight times, which was,
oh you okay, God, I got it, I got you
(41:56):
right there, Coach Sandford, what's going on? Yeah, we're up
for you coming in the first one.
Speaker 5 (42:03):
In where do we go?
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Hold on? Are we adding another freaking body to this
hot mess?
Speaker 3 (42:09):
I don't know. I guess this.
Speaker 4 (42:11):
Hot mess of dmax idea that we've all it's taken
a six months. We're adding another body to this.
Speaker 3 (42:17):
This is grown far beyond dmax idea at this point.
Speaker 4 (42:20):
Good, don't you dismiss yourself from this?
Speaker 5 (42:22):
Well?
Speaker 4 (42:23):
Is this what cross talk looks?
Speaker 8 (42:25):
Like, Yeah, this is the optics of crosstime cross talking.
Speaker 5 (42:29):
Is we hang around till fifteen after and they show
up a five after.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 8 (42:33):
You guys put in an extra fifteen minutes of work
for them to put five minutes less.
Speaker 5 (42:38):
Of work in.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Yeah, probably were playing the sad music again. Oh my god,
they gotta talk for next for ten minutes.
Speaker 8 (42:46):
Can I just tell you, guys one thing I haven't
listened to the show.
Speaker 3 (42:48):
Thank you recently. Appreciate appreciate it first time I hear
rookie here, if you're gonna do this, you gotta put
some headphones on so you can here.
Speaker 5 (42:58):
I gave you some can say. Is that?
Speaker 3 (43:00):
I'm what?
Speaker 8 (43:02):
I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be out at
Broncosow Park, powered by common spirit to watch football.
Speaker 5 (43:11):
See like, I wish it.
Speaker 3 (43:13):
Was hotter, hotter. I wish it was less like codge
less shade less shape.
Speaker 5 (43:19):
Don't you wish you could park further away?
Speaker 3 (43:21):
I wish there were more special teams periods. I wish
there were more walkthroughs.
Speaker 4 (43:26):
Ball coach right, there.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
More walkthroughs.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Hey, but you have to be there.
Speaker 5 (43:32):
Compared to the energy from yesterday's practice today was a
little down.
Speaker 8 (43:36):
It was down.
Speaker 5 (43:37):
Yeah, it was down.

He was wearing a tie, and he talked about our
football team Prefontaine.

Now, I know Prefontaine ran six minute miles. Whether he
was going five miles or he's going twenty.
Speaker 8 (43:58):
Minths, is it even if you're running a marathon, he
would go the same you're essentially sprinting a marathon.
Speaker 3 (44:03):
He would he would not. That was this Steve Prefontaine
thing for how many miles? For you name it. This
guy was one of the world class runners. He would
go thirty miles at the same pace he would go
for three miles. Wow, yeah he went, but he wouldn't
speed up the three miles and he wouldn't go shorter
on the thirty miles.

Speaker 4 (45:05):
Hey, Scott, Actually, you know what just happened. I think
Mike Sanford just officially got us out of Cross Talk forever.
Speaker 8 (45:12):
Might just depends on if the gatekeeper, Nate Krackman, allows
me to hang out with him or not.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
That's what I have to get through.
Speaker 4 (45:19):
There's no doubt we'll see.

An iron iron pig recently as well, Yeah, Lehigh Valley.
Speaker 3 (46:06):

who's missed two years because of Tommy John surgery. You
know what, for Tyler Kinley.
Speaker 4 (46:13):
That's that's good.
Speaker 9 (46:14):
Though you want a guy after Tommy John, that is true,
that's the time to get him. So like you, you're
kind of you know, you're you're buying low on a
guy where hopefully he's recovering and getting to the good spot.
I actually like at first number one, I was like,
what the hell are the Braves doing? Why are they
doing this trade? You're seventeen games under five hundred. Kinley's
got a team option for.
Speaker 3 (46:35):
Next year, Yeah, five million, So they can take.
Speaker 9 (46:36):
A look at him and be like, well, we have
to be healthy next year and contend again, so if
you're good, you can stick around. Today they get Rock
Reggio as far as I know, no relation to Craig Bgio,
but rock Regio first, Rock and Rocky's history, by the way,
I believe that is fit
